Chapter 92: Lister VS Enel!
God's Island.
Upper Yard.
In the sunless forest.
"Where's the ship? Where the hell did that guy Lister take the ship?! No plan at all, running around everywhere, really not giving people peace of mind!!" Zoro, unaware of his own flaws, blamed Lister.
"Next, which direction should I go?? Hmm, let's go East, the direction of the sun!!" Zoro muttered to himself, then walked towards the South.
However, he hadn't walked more than a few steps.
Zzzzt.
Several flashes of lightning flickered.
A figure instantly appeared in front of Zoro.
Floating in the void.
This person was Enel.
Why he found Zoro first instead of Lister, the reason was simple.
Because Zoro, Johnson, and Bonez were just appetizers to him.
Lister was the real main course.
Before eating the main course.
Naturally, he had to taste the appetizers first.
As for why the first one was Zoro and not Johnson or Bonez, the reason was also simple.
Because he was alone.
Over there were two people.
The portion of two people was naturally slightly larger than one.
"Enel??" The moment Zoro saw Enel, he immediately became alert.
Before coming up to Sky Island.
Zoro knew the real purpose of this trip.
Now, with Enel's entrance accompanied by lightning, he was undoubtedly the Thunder God Enel that Lister spoke of.
"Ant, you shouldn't call this God by name directly!" A flash of displeasure appeared in Enel's dead fish eyes.
"God??" Zoro sneered disdainfully: "Just right, the battle just now wasn't satisfying. Since you delivered yourself to the door, I'll slaughter a god to satisfy myself!"
As soon as Zoro's voice fell.
He instantly drew his sword and slashed towards Enel.
The whole movement was completed in a flash.
The Sandai Kitetsu instantly cut into Enel's head.
Unfortunately. Not a drop of blood was left on Enel's head.
Instead, he looked at Zoro mockingly, reached out, and pinched Zoro's Sandai Kitetsu.
Zoro's pupils shrank fiercely.
He abruptly drew Yubashiri.
Swinging it towards Enel.
Pfft——!
One slash directly severed the hand Enel used to pinch the Sandai Kitetsu.
Then, he quickly retreated.
However, Enel's speed was faster than him.
Appearing behind him early on.
"One Million Volts!"
Zoro had already activated his Observation Haki.
The moment Enel released the lightning attack, he quickly dodged to the side.
Narrowly avoiding Enel's attack.
"Dodged?? Looks like you also awakened Mantra." Enel was somewhat surprised.
But not too surprised.
Continuing to launch attacks at Zoro.
Zoro dodged once, twice, but couldn't dodge the third time.
Fought desperately with Enel.
Unfortunately, without awakening Busoshoku Haki, he couldn't cut Enel at all.
At this moment, he also realized that Logia fruits were troublesome.
Against someone like him who hadn't awakened Busoshoku Haki and had no Seastone weapons, they were simply unsolvable.
Zzzzt.
A bolt of lightning struck Zoro.
Instantly shocking Zoro until his whole body convulsed.
Face turned black, hair smoking.
"Damn it!!!"
Zoro fell directly to the ground.
Although not dead, he realized his body was paralyzed and completely out of control.
"It should end now!" Enel looked at Zoro, who was lying on the ground unable to move, with his dead fish eyes devoid of pity. Lightning condensed on his index finger.
Shooting directly towards Zoro.
"Does my journey end here?? That guy Lister made me unable to become the World's Greatest Swordsman. No, I still have to thank him for bringing me to the Grand Line, letting me see the splendor of this world! Kuina, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't fulfill our promise..."
In the final moments, countless thoughts flashed through Zoro's mind, both blaming Lister and grateful to Lister, missing Kuina.
Complex.
However, in the nick of time, in a flash, a figure rushed from the distance.
Splitting apart the lightning bolt shot at Zoro just in time.
This person was Lister.
Just as Enel had been covering the entire Sky Island with Mantra.
Lister was also using Observation Haki to cover the entire God's Island, Upper Yard.
After detecting Enel's movements.
He was alert.
Initially thought Enel would come directly for him.
Unexpectedly.
Enel didn't come for him directly, but found Zoro instead.
So, he didn't rush to act.
Wanted to see.
How many rounds the trained Zoro could last under Enel's hands.
Zoro indeed wasn't instantly killed like in the original story.
But he didn't last many rounds either.
Taken down by Enel.
Neither surprise nor accident.
Zoro's performance was completely within Lister's expectations.
So when Enel prepared to deal the killing blow to Zoro, he acted decisively.
Lister dispersed Enel's lightning with one slash.
Didn't stop there.
Backhand swung another slash towards Enel.
"Ryuo: Moon Chase!"
A black-red slashing wave only one meter in size shot out.
Slashing towards Enel rapidly and swiftly.
In an instant, Enel's hair stood on end.
Dared not be careless in the slightest.
Hurriedly turned into lightning, dodging to the side.
Zzzzt——!
Whoosh——!
The moment Enel dodged.
Lister quickly followed up.
Slashing towards Enel again, fast and urgent.
Enel hurriedly swung the golden staff in his hand to block.
Pfft.
Kashu, imbued with Busoshoku Haki, cut through Enel's golden staff as easily as cutting tofu.
Simultaneously slashing fiercely onto Enel's shoulder.
From top to bottom, one slash slid down.
A long wound, from Enel's left arm to his right abdomen, quickly split open.
Instantly, blood gushed frantically from Enel's chest.
"You can hurt me??" Enel was both shocked and angry, hurriedly widening the distance from Lister.
Simultaneously not forgetting to use electric therapy to stop bleeding and heal injuries.
"Frog in the well, you can only arrogantly call yourself God in this patch of sky. How would you know the vastness of the world, the strength of the strong!"
While speaking, Lister chased after Enel.
The moment he got close, another slash swung towards Enel.
Scaring Enel into turning directly into a bolt of lightning, shooting into the distance.
However, how could Lister let him go.
Pushing speed to the limit, he chased after Enel.
Instantly arriving in front of Enel, raising his hand for a fierce slash.
"Why is your speed this fast??"
Enel's face changed drastically.
A Rumble-Rumble Fruit user being caught up by someone.
Simply unbelievable.
The next moment.
An arm flew out.
Blood gushed frantically from the severed arm.
"Ah!!"
Enel screamed miserably.
Anger rushed straight to his brain.
Didn't flee anymore.
Counterattacked Lister directly.
"60 Million Volts: Thunder Dragon!"
A thick bolt of lightning, shaped like a dragon, blasted fiercely towards Lister!
"Getsuga Tensho!"
Lister held the sword with both hands, swinging a strike with all his might.
A black-red slash fell like a meteor.
Splitting Enel's Thunder Dragon with crushing force, and slashing towards Enel himself majestically.
Enel's face changed again.
He couldn't understand.
Why Lister's sword was so terrifying.
Not only could it split his lightning, but it could also hurt him.
Shocked as he was, Enel didn't forget to dodge.
Just as the black-red crescent slash swept over, he narrowly dodged the attack.
Whoosh——!
After the black-red crescent was dodged, it continued slashing for a hundred meters, a thousand meters, ten thousand meters away.
Along the way, countless trees and animals were split in two.
At this moment, angry as Enel was, seeing Lister's terrifying slashing wave.
For a moment, he felt his life was more important.
So he turned into a bolt of lightning again and fled into the distance.
