Chapter 50: Sky-Splitting Arrow, Piercing Through Enel!

Enel’s expression darkened.

He had tolerated this guy for long enough.

And now Jozu was still provoking him right to his face.

Fine.

He would make an example out of him first.

"You ignorant insect!"

"The dignity of a god is not something you can challenge!"

Gripping the golden staff in his hand, Enel struck the drum mounted behind his shoulder.

Immediately, countless bolts of lightning burst forth.

"30 Million Volt: Thunderbird!"

A dazzling radiance erupted from the drum.

The lightning rapidly gathered together, taking shape in the sky.

Moments later, a gigantic thunderbird appeared.

Its body was composed entirely of lightning.

The creature let out a piercing cry as electric feathers shimmered across its wings.

With a wingspan towering nearly seven men high, it radiated overwhelming power.

Without hesitation, the thunderbird shot toward Jozu at astonishing speed.

Its purpose was simple:

Destroy everything in its path.

"Now that’s a little interesting."

Jozu grinned, excitement flashing through his eyes.

Armament Haki instantly coated his right fist.

The blackened arm looked as though it had been covered in invisible armor.

As the thunderbird rushed toward him, Jozu calmly reached out—

And grabbed it by the neck.

The lightning beast screeched violently.

Its body twisted and struggled desperately.

But no matter how hard it fought, it couldn’t escape Jozu’s iron grip.

"Quake Impact!"

Jozu roared.

A transparent white force erupted from his hand.

The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit (Gura Gura no Mi) manifested fully.

Then he squeezed.

BOOM!

A violent shockwave exploded outward.

The thunderbird shattered instantly.

The mighty lightning construct broke apart into countless electric sparks before dissipating into the air.

The entire exchange happened so quickly that most observers couldn’t even react before it was over.

The islanders stared in stunned disbelief.

Even the Shandians secretly observing from afar were utterly shocked.

That was lightning.

One of nature’s most mysterious and destructive forces.

Yet someone had grabbed it with his bare hands and crushed it.

It completely defied common sense.

Meanwhile, the Whitebeard Pirates looked utterly unfazed.

Using Haki to fight Logia users was common knowledge to them.

To the crew, this scene was practically routine.

It only highlighted how isolated Skypiea had become from the outside world.

Enel’s face initially froze in shock.

Then his expression twisted into disbelief and panic.

"How is this possible?!"

"My lightning was grabbed with bare hands?!"

"No!"

"That’s impossible!"

His eyes gradually became bloodshot.

"30 Million Volt: Thunder Beast!"

"60 Million Volt: Thunder Dragon!"

BOOM! BOOM!

Enel slammed the drum behind his left shoulder.

A torrent of lightning exploded outward.

The electricity gathered together and transformed into a gigantic thunder wolf.

Blue lightning crackled through its body as it bared its fangs.

Immediately afterward, Enel struck the drums behind both shoulders again.

An even greater surge of lightning erupted.

The sky shook.

This time, the electricity formed a massive thunder dragon.

Its body was covered in dazzling arcs of lightning.

The creature opened its enormous jaws and released a deafening roar.

It looked capable of devouring the world itself.

The Thunder Beast and Thunder Dragon charged forward simultaneously.

Their objective was clear:

Consume Jozu completely.

Jozu simply laughed.

To Enel, that grin looked almost demonic.

At the same time, powerful quake fields appeared around both of Jozu’s hands.

He slowly adopted the posture of an archer.

One hand held an invisible bow.

The other drew back an invisible string.

As he moved, the air in front of him began to crack.

Spiderweb-like fractures spread across the sky.

The very atmosphere seemed unable to withstand the pressure.

"Sky-Splitting Arrow!"

Jozu bellowed.

Then he released the string.

WHOOSH!

An almost invisible arrow shot forward.

Its speed was beyond comprehension.

Everywhere it passed, the air split apart.

The surrounding space trembled violently.

The Thunder Dragon and Thunder Beast looked pitifully fragile before that power.

They couldn’t even approach.

The pressure radiating from the arrow alone shattered them into countless particles of light.

They vanished without resistance.

Everyone watching was left speechless.

Yet the arrow continued forward.

Its speed and power remained undiminished.

Straight toward Enel.

For the first time, genuine terror appeared in Enel’s eyes.

He tried to dodge.

He tried to resist.

But it was already too late.

The invisible arrow struck his chest directly.

CRACK!

His body was pierced clean through.

Enel stared down at his chest in disbelief.

A single exchange.

That was all it had taken.

The enemy had already pierced his body.

His eyes were filled with shock.

Never in his life had he imagined suffering such a crushing defeat.

Nor had he imagined encountering someone this powerful.

Then—

His expression changed dramatically.

An overwhelming tearing force erupted from the wound.

It felt as though countless invisible hands were ripping him apart from within.

BOOM!

His body exploded into pieces.

Fragments scattered across the ground.

The self-proclaimed god of Skypiea had been utterly destroyed in a single attack.
