One Piece: Reborn as Enel

Chapter 30: Real Unnatural Disaster

_________ POV Enel_________

In the first place, someone of his level would be extremely difficult to deal with, so it's only normal that the situation would turn into a stalemate.

This has gone quite a lot better than I had expected, but I was still unable to deal any significant damage.

Some small burns along the arm and a few bruises aren't anything to someone like Jack.

To actually damage him I have to go all out. I've already gotten a bit more perspective into where I stand in this fight.

My armament haki has no way of overcoming his, most of my hits were rather ineffective because of that. And attacking with gold isn't very effective in the first place, especially since I can't even coat my weapons with Armament yet.

So I'll rely on my devil fruit from now on, at least to end this fight... I'm curious about how much he can withstand.

_________ POV Narration _________

In that second, any notion of holding back disappeared. Enel took to the skies. ignoring Jack's surprise as he looked down on the sinking ship that the large pirate was on.

"I won't lie to you, I was expecting a lot more from someone of your level... But I guess you weren't anything special in the end." Enel said as he pointed his finger towards the gold that was on the deck.

A lightning tendril seemed to extend to it at speeds that Jack could barely follow with his Observation Haki.

The gold rose from the ground and got pulled straight at Enel.

The gold then circled around Enel, forming a large circle floating behind him. A pair of golden drums reminiscent of the ones he had when he came to this world.

This time, they weren't attached to him, merely floating behind him, spinning slowly as they seemed to release endless arks of pure lightning, overcharging the stormy skies even further.

Jack looked at the scene with clenched fists. He was unsure of what was coming next, but he finally figured out that his enemy wasn't going to hold back anymore.

He had seen Enel take out his crew in the beginning, he knew that attacking physically wasn't the only thing Enel could do.

But now that he was faced with Enel going all out, he was unsure if he was supposed to feel gratified... Or terrified...

"Don't think I'll go down this easy!" Jack instantly shook his head, disregarding that last thought with a scowl on his face. He immediately started transforming, taking on the appearance of a gargantuan orange-haired mammoth.

"It doesn't matter what you do! You won't ever get through my defences!" He also covered his body in a thick layer of Armament, making him look like a black-haired Mammoth.

It was the strongest defence he could muster, and something that he had complete confidence in.

Enel looked down with a smile.

"Defence is your strongest point after all... I wonder how you'll fare against something like this!"

Enel's hand pointed upwards, as the storm clouds seemed to gather above the ship.

The lightning in all of the overcharged clouds quickly started gathering in one single point, a sphere of electricity that seemed to be radiating enough heat to make Jack sweat from a distance.

More and more lightning kept gathering at that point, and the sphere grew more and more in size and density.

After around 15 seconds, the sphere itself was large enough to cover an entire island, it completely dwarfed the Mammoth.

At this point, Jack realized that feeling scared might've been a bit more accurate for the situation.

"Try and survive, maybe you have a chance? But your ship sure doesn't!" Enel then clenched his fist and brought his hand down in a violent motion.

The lightning sphere seemed to get compressed, becoming a completely purple ball of plasma.

The sphere of lightning descended on Jack and his ship. Jack roared as he prepared to take the attack head-on.

Although compressed, the sphere was still larger than Jack's ship, completely engulfing it.

Dodging wasn't even an option, the attack descended on him at lightning speed, and Jack was surrounded on all sides by the sea, even the ship he was on was already half sunk.

The sphere expanded in an explosion that seemed to swallow up the sea for kilometres all around it, the sound of the raging thunder seemed to dwarf that of Jack's screaming voice.

The sphere didn't stop when hitting the surface of the sea, it continued downwards, hitting the bed of the sea and evaporating all of the water underneath it.

Enel looked on, as the sphere of lightning he had created evaporated the seawater around them, boiling it and creating tsunamis on all sides.

Enel's eyes quickly widened when noticing the waves and tides rising as high as the clouds. 'My hard-earned bounties!'

He quickly dashed towards where he had left the sack filled with heads, thankfully the tsunamis had yet to reach it. He grabbed the sack and flew with it above the clouds.

Enel then sat down on a cloud and sighed in tiredness, such a large attack wasn't exactly easy to pull off, it had taken quite a bit of stamina from him. Still, he could keep fighting regardless of that... If there was a need to anyway.

The tsunami of boiling water seemed to almost reach his feet, it seemed determined to flip the seas upside down as it continued its journey.

The sphere of lightning finally dispersed after a full minute, leaving a large hole in the middle of the sea, going all the way to the bottom.

Inside that hole, Enel could see a smouldering figure, looking like charcoal, but somewhat melted.

He could still recognize Jack, his trembling body made it seem like he had somehow survived that attack, but there was no saving him.

Enel landed in the hole he had created, as the sea started quickly trying to fill it with water.

"To think you'd still be alive! Truly wondrous, the strength that stands at the top of this world!" Enel spoke to the melted almost-corpse of Jack.

The large and previously intimidating pirate didn't even have eyes anymore, he couldn't even speak. All that he could feel was numbness, the lightning having fired all of his nerves and melted part of his brain.

His powerful Armament Haki had protected him, but it couldn't protect him properly from such an attack, it only served to prolong his suffering. As he was now, he didn't have much more than a minute or two to live.

Even those few minutes were granted to him due to his immense endurance. Someone like Doflamingo would've died much quicker underneath that kind of attack.

"I'll admit, fighting you gave me a lot of insight! Have a good one, Jack!"

The large pirate couldn't even hear Enel, he was simply pondering the choices he had taken in his life, to have led to him attempting to fight such an opponent.

Blinded by his own hubris and confidence, maybe he would've survived more had he taken his opponent seriously from the start... Or had he not gone for such an opponent at all.

But in truth, he had no way of knowing his enemy's abilities.

Now, there he stood, in a crater in the sea that was already filling up with water. A massive whirlpool formed above him.

Him being a Fishman meant that seawater couldn't drown him. Maybe he should've thrown himself into the sea to try and escape?

But the seawater itself was boiled and evaporated by Enel's attack, so that wouldn't have worked either...

In the end, Jack simply couldn't imagine a scenario where he could survive such a ruthless attack.

He was left to ponder his last moments at the bottom of the scorched sea.

Back at Wano country, an underling was sitting down, his eyes filled with boredom. His task was to look at the pieces of Vivre cards from the top brass all day.

His job was to instantly report any minute changes that might've indicated that any top member of the Beast Pirates was in danger.

A boring task, and rather uneventful, as very few could confidently say they'd be able to kill one of Kaido's top brass.

Today was different, however, as that nameless underling looked in fear at Jack's Vivre Card being burnt up and disappearing.

It was almost instant, and the underling was paralyzed with fear as he looked at the burnt-up remains of Jack's card.

The underling quickly stumbled and ran to inform the others. This news was bound to shake the Beast Pirates... But in truth, it was going to shake the New World in its entirety.

_________ POV Enel_________

That was certainly an eventful day.

In the end, I managed to gain a lot more perspective on how my attacks would fare against the top of the world.

I know from the show that Kaido has the highest defence in the Beast Pirates, and Big Mom should also have a stronger body than Jack here.

So, if I were to hazard a guess, most top cadres of Yonkos wouldn't be able to survive this type of move. Jack's specialization was his endurance, but the others, like Katakuri, Smoothie and Cracker, have different strong points.

As long as I keep my head straight, I can dodge most attacks headed my way. And with the firepower that my devil fruit provides me, I should be able to win most fights I find myself into.

I'd rather train a bit more before the war though. I need to strengthen my armament haki quite a bit if I want things to be a bit smoother in the future.

Some would still be able to attack me while I charge my larger moves, so I need to at least be prepared for that.

Jack couldn't fly, so he was kind of like a fish in a barrel. But others won't sit tight while I charge my attacks like that.

I'd say this tired me out as a good workout would, I've already regained most of my stamina.

I should start heading for Marineford now, I have quite a few bounties to deliver.
