Third Person POV
Skypiea, First Half of Grandline.
…
…
The sunlight bathed Skypiea like never before, enhancing the natural beauty of the island while a new regime had been established in the kingdom following the fall of Enel, with Gan Fall being chosen as the new sovereign to govern over the entire population after officially acquiring the protection of Luffy and declaring Skypiea as a territory of the Straw Hat pirates.
Days had been passing, and Skypiea began to get used to a much more bustling kingdom than anyone remembered, with the Straw Hat crew and the newly integrated members of the fleet continuing their rigorous training regimen under Luffy’s relentless leadership. Each new day, the crew strove to surpass their own limits, showing visible progress that even the captain acknowledged with pride.
Broggy and Dorry, the colossal figures, had mastered a second technique of the six styles, an impressive feat that reflected not only their brute strength but also their adaptability and desire to grow as warriors. They boasted that upon their return to Elbaf, they would be the greatest warriors of the kingdom. Their movements, once guided mainly by strength, were now enhanced by a new layer of technique and precision using Sorru and Geppo.
Meanwhile, the other new members of the fleet, although still getting familiar with the first technique of the six styles, since they started their training a week ago, exhibited tireless dedication. Luffy had spent the last week and a half preparing their bodies and minds for the rigorous training, and the results were beginning to show. Each of them, from Bentham to Galdino, showed a noticeable improvement, promising to become a force to be reckoned with.
“This is very good…” Luffy murmured, jumping back as his eyes moved across the island where his companions were training with each other to get used to their techniques in real combat.
In the landscape a little above Skypiea, an epic battle unfolded between Zoro and Kuina, both in their phase 1 transformations. The fight was a spectacle of strength and skill, combining ice and darkness in an impressive duel.
Zoro, in his Odin phase, sported armor of darkness that pulsed with a dark red energy. Each of his movements was accompanied by streaks of black and red light, creating an undeniable aura of power. He maneuvered with incredible speed, almost a shadow amid daylight, while his sword cut the air, leaving dark and red trails that seemed to absorb the light around.
Kuina, transformed into the same phase by the power of the Eikon Eikon no Mi, Model: Shiva, was the personification of winter. Wearing a characteristic cape of her transformation with bright blue eyes, the ice that surrounded her seemed alive, reacting to her movements and emotions. With a gesture, besides sending freezing cuts with her sword, she conjured razor-sharp ice blades that flew towards Zoro with deadly precision. Her agility was accentuated by the lightness that the ice conferred, allowing her to dodge Zoro’s attacks with almost ballet-like grace.
With each clash of their swords, an explosion of ice and darkness erupted, sending bright fragments into the sky. Zoro, with a roar, released a wave of dark energy that swept the battlefield, only to be met and frozen mid-way by a wall of ice created by Kuina.
*BOOOMM!!* Elsewhere in Skypiea, above the floating island and even higher than Zoro and Kuina’s battle, the sky was the stage for a dazzling spectacle, marked by vibrant explosions of fire and light. Reiju and Usopp, both transformed by their Akuma no Mi, engaged in a training battle at a new level of the planet’s atmosphere.
Reiju, now in the colossal form of a Phoenix, her red flames shining intensely, cut through the sky with elegance and power reminiscent of the majesty of an ancient deity. Each of her movements triggered waves of flames that lit up the skies, creating a stunning visual effect that could be seen from the entire island.
On the other hand, Usopp, transformed into a radiant immense dragon, displayed his own grandeur. His body, emitting dazzling rays of light, moved with impressive agility for his size. Each of Usopp’s light shots was a demonstration of strength and precision, intended to test the reflexes and resilience of Reiju, who also used her healing power to recover from any attack.
On the ground, the inhabitants of Skypiea watched in awe. It was an extraordinary sight: two beings of ancient legends battling in the skies. Children pointed upwards, mesmerized, while adults watched with a mix of admiration and reverent fear.
With each collision between fire and light, a vibrant shockwave was sent through the skies, accompanied by a thunderous sound that echoed throughout the island. It was a dance of elemental powers, a contest between two forces of nature incarnated in the forms of Reiju and Usopp.
*Slash* *Slash* Hachi was launching slashes at Bepo, who was using soru and geppo to fly and dodge, while responding with kicks of the six styles, Rankyaku.
*BOOOOM!* Vivi and Nami were fighting against each other while using their wind powers, creating hurricanes in the middle of the island. Nami now wielded a spear that Luffy had bought in the system, and she had her own ability with the non-grade spear, but as powerful as a high-grade one. Vivi was struggling to keep up with Nami, as the Cocoyasi girl had been training a month earlier, and Vivi was still getting used to her powers.
*Booom!* *Booom!* *Booom!* *Booom!* *Booom!* *Booom!* Robin had created more than 200 arms with hands, forming a pistol with all the hands, launching hundreds of Shigan like a burst of air simulating shots. Meanwhile, Alvida was deflecting all the attacks with her club. “You’re doing very well for a lover,” Alvida taunted Robin, but the latter continued launching attacks without caring about the provocations.
*BOOOOM!* Debris flew everywhere in a corner of the island. Transformed Chouchou was fighting against Hugo, while fire, lightning, and ice flew towards the man in the first phase of his transformation, his body covered in bright and sharp rocks, creating defenses against the crew dog’s elemental powers with his earth power.
Lami had activated his [room] while fighting against Nojiko. The latter tried to dodge his attacks using her first acquired ability, Kamie, to bend her body and avoid the cuts that would remove parts of their bodies. Lami was in control of the situation but had to be careful with Nojiko’s speed, which combined her bomb fruit on the feet with her soru, giving her a speed that even Lami could not follow.
Shirahoshi and Megalo were fighting each other. Although it was the calmest fight, Megalo tried using Tekkai to protect himself from his friend’s attacks, trying to learn to use the power of his water element fruit. She now used a trident that Luffy bought for her, a weapon called Nejibana, which made her very happy, as it was the weapon her father and brothers also used. The fight usually ended when Shirahoshi used her haki and broke through Megalo’s Tekkai defense.
Laboon and Chopper had a balanced fight, one against the other, both still using few techniques. Megalo had his strength, but it was reduced by his current size due to the Moa moa no mi, and Chopper had his fruit. Luffy suggested that Chopper use the most powerful transformation to start having control over it. Reluctantly, Chopper used it and always got out of control, but Luffy easily knocked him out, which always made the little doctor wake up angry and bandaged in recent days.
“Pay attention to our fight, Luffy!” Yamato shouted from the sky, making Luffy divert his attention from everyone to look at his wife sending an attack directly at him with Haki and transformed into her phase 1.
*BOOOOM!* Luffy in his phase 2, jumped back and dodged the attack. He saw Yamato not giving up and attacking him directly. He wrapped his arm in haki, a constant evolution of himself in relation to his abilities. Luffy had become much stronger in these last 11 days and managed to increase another level with his Moa moa no mi, allowing him to multiply 60 times. His 11 days of training became 122 days, which made him grow a lot in armament, conqueror, and even start training with observation haki.
Yamato wrapped her body in haki, now she was much more powerful, even able to add the conqueror’s haki to her attacks. The two fists collided wrapped in Haki, creating a shockwave that made the entire upper garden tremble. Luffy compensated for Yamato’s advantage of wrapping her attacks with armament and conqueror with his multiplication to balance or even be stronger than his wife. There was no doubt that Luffy was the most powerful member of the crew, taking this title from Yamato at that moment.
*BOOOOM!*
*BOOOOOOM!!!*
The fight between the two was much more wild, even affecting the battles of others with the shockwaves between Luffy and Yamato. Everyone in Skypiea could hear the explosions between the two, not just that, every day at this time, the entire crew would engage in battles against each other, with the fight between Luffy’s purple flames and Yamato’s ice devastating the largest area.
“Show-offs as always…” Wapel looked enviously at all the main crew members fighting. They had started training with Luffy last week, which proved to be quite beneficial for everyone involved, despite being quite rigorous. Everyone had become much stronger and finally learned a technique they had trained for, as their bodies were strong enough for it. However, compared to the main members who were fighting each other around the island, they seemed so weak. Wapel and other Shandies recognized that many of them were stronger than Enel, not just Luffy, making them wonder where so many monsters came from.
The whole day was filled with fights and enhancements of their abilities, so that at the end of the day, Luffy would gather everyone for a grand feast.
“Feast-Chann!!” Bon-Clay, always cheerful, performed his act, even though he was injured from the day’s training.
“Captain, may I bake a beautiful cake for you, you can even… eat me… Kyahahahaha!” Mikita grabbed Luffy and teased him.
“Get away from him, you bitch!” Nami kicked Mikita’s butt, making her fly, but she stabilized in the air, controlling her weight.
“You damn woman, I’ll teach you a lesson one day!” Mikita angrily spoke to Nami, nursing her kicked butt.
“Rum!” Nami just crossed her arms and made an arrogant sound.
“Hey hey, now let’s continue our long-awaited feast, everyone get ready!” Luffy announced, and everyone prepared alongside Black Pearl for another common night among the group.
After another night of partying, Luffy left the captain’s room where he had left Nami, Nojiko, Yamato, Alvida, and Robin, who had finally joined them, and went to the deck. There, he found Zoro drinking his sake.
“Hello Zoro, I’m thinking of visiting our prisoner, how is he?” Luffy asked.
“Captain! Well, I left food for him, but he doesn’t touch it, just like the last few times this week, he just doesn’t eat and doesn’t talk to me,” Zoro spoke, drinking more of his drink.
“I see, it seems his defeat has really shaken him. Do you think he wants suicide?” Luffy asked.
“I don’t think so, he’s just denying reality I guess, it happens to many warriors, but if he doesn’t accept it and move forward, he will die, for sure,” Zoro spoke calmly.
“I understand, it’s time to see him for the first time after our fight, let’s see how he is and make some proposals,” Luffy smiled.
“Do you intend to recruit him to the fleet?” Zoro asked, raising an eyebrow.
“No, I intend to recruit him to join the main crew,” Luffy smiled excitedly. The lightning fruit could easily be acquired, but who would fill it? Luffy had no one in his main crew suitable for the fruit. Enel ate it and trained it for many years, even possessing power to destroy the whole Skypiea, not only that, he is a talented engineer, leaving him alive was much more useful than killing him and taking his fruit.
The people of Skypiea might protest about this, but Luffy wouldn’t care about it and would end any protest they would make against him and his plans. He wasn’t a good Samaritan and always made that clear, he is a person with ambitions and dreams, and even if he is a villain for it, he will realize them. He himself has the mentality that he would burn the world to achieve his goals, he would just think before if his crew, family, and his people were safe, as long as that was okay, he would do anything.
Luffy thought calmly about the positives as he headed alone to the prison that morning, “We’re going to have a long talk, Enel.”
