Chapter 467: Pirates vs Gods
Cricket dashes to attack Garling who has transformed into a 6-winged angelic creature, Seraphim. Both of them are taller and bigger than normal people, to begin with, but they've grown even bigger after transforming.
Cricket is using his half-dragon form while Garling uses his full Seraphim form. The half-dragon form is more comfortable for Cricket because he is a martial art master, so the gigantic full dragon form can't display his full power.
As for Garling, his devil fruit is a humanoid form, so he is comfortable in any form. It's just that being in his Seraphim form boosts his power greatly and he gains the ability to fly. Cricket can fly too although he needs to use his flame cloud to assist him.
Fists and sword attacks are colliding against each other in their fight. Both Cricket and Garling are using powerful attacks, but for those who know them, it's clear that they are just using their basic attacks. The 2 of them are still testing each other to know their opponents better.
Meanwhile, Kong the Monkey King hasn't started his fight. He is just staring at the man who stands in front of him who holds a big Warhammer on his shoulder. Palu is also just staring at Kong's new appearance.
Kong grew golden fur all over his body except for his face, long monkey tail, golden pupils, sharp and long fangs, and obviously a monkey face. Palu is very careful against Kong because he knows that Mythical Zoan's ability can't be underestimated, so he doesn't want to strike first.
"Black Hammer Palu, you must be the strongest shipwright in the world right now."
"What's with the chitchat, old man? We aren't close enough to have a small talk like this."
"Right, so why don't you attack me?"
"I see, you are waiting for me, huh? How sweet of you."
Palu decides to stop waiting and dashes to attack Kong. He is very fast even while carrying the heavy Warhammer on his shoulder. His Sky Race wings flap when he runs, increasing his speed multiple folds. Kong is surprised to see Palu uses his wings because he never saw Sky people use their wings.
Sky Race's wings are just decoration and identity for most sky people, but Palu can actually use them like Lunarian because his wings are bigger now. As a Birkan, his wings were already bigger than other Sky races like Shandians and Skypieans. But his wings are even bigger now.
They grew bigger with the help of Ruff who used King's Lunarian genetics to enhance Palu's genetics, resulting in his wings' growth that gives him the ability to fly. Palu didn't want to eat devil fruit because he needs swimming ability as a shipwright.
So Ruff proposed genetic modification using Lunarian genetic from King that he took when defeating Beasts Pirates 20 years ago. Ruff kept learning genetic modification and finally succeeded a few years ago before modifying Palu's genetics.
But Ruff didn't modify Palu's genetics completely. He only added some characteristics that would be suitable and useful for Palu. As a Sky race who has wings, gaining the ability to fly freely using his wings will be very beneficial to Palu, so Ruff modified Palu's wings and made them grow to reach the size that can make him fly.
Then obviously, Ruff added Lunarian's special ability, the power to control the flame. Palu swings his Warhammer toward Kong who sends his fist to counter it. But then Kong's eyes widen when Palu's big Warhammer is burning.
*BOOM*
A strong shockwave that shakes their surrounding appears from their clash.
"So tough! As expected of the Monkey King."
"Flame? I never knew you can use flame."
"And I never knew I need to tell you about it."
Palu spins his Warhammer and swings it from below. Kong blocks it with his palms, but he is sent flying up. He rotates acrobatically in the air before kicking the air to use Geppo and launches himself at Palu.
Kong's geppo is very fast and he reaches Palu almost instantly. This speed is beyond Palu's expectations, but he still can react. He often fought against Enel, after all, so he is used to high-speed attacks, and Enel can move much faster than this.
Although Kong's speed still surprises Palu, so he isn't fully ready for it. He barely blocks Kong's punch with his left hand coated with haki. Kong's punch is very strong too, making the hard Red Line ground under Palu's feet cracks.
Palu manages to hold his ground though and he even sends a counterattack. He swings his Warhammer in his right hand toward Kong's side. It hits Kong's waist, but Kong has coated that part with Armament Haki. Still, the impact is enough to push Kong away.
They dash toward each other again and exchange strong blows that shake the battlefield. A similar thing also ensues near them where Enel is facing the CP-0 Chief. To face Enel's lightning, the CP-0 Chief is using his power to absorb a diamond that he kept in his pocket.
So now, the CP-0 Chief looks like Jozu from Whitebeard Pirates with a diamond body. Diamond shouldn't be affected by lightning, so he chose to transform into the diamond. But, it's not the first time Enel fights an enemy who can nullify his lightning power.
He can use his lightning's heat against opponents that can nullify his lightning sometimes, but it won't affect Diamond too. So the only way to make his power work is by using haki. Enel can infuse haki into his lightning, making his lightning able to touch his opponent's real body.
The only drawback is he needs to attack at close range to make it effective. But it doesn't matter to him because he is very fast. He can reach his opponents before they can even react. Also, even without lightning, he can still hit his opponent's real body.
Enel flashes toward the CP-0 Chief and sends a haki-coated lightning kick on the left head. His haki makes his lightning black, making it looks completely different. But the only difference isn't just its look, its power also multiplies.
The black lightning kick hasn't even touched the CP-0 Chief's left face, but he is sent flying quite far. To his surprise, he also spits some blood as the kick's power actually passes through his diamond and haki defense. Though his diamond body and haki still reduced the kick's power.
"Advanced Haki!?"
"YAHAHA! What are you surprised by? Do you think a Godly being like me can't use a simple advanced haki? There's no way I will lose to that diamond head and woodpecker."
The CP-0 Chief is confused for a moment about the diamond head and woodpecker. But then he sees Cricket and Palu before realizing it. Cricket is a diamond head because of his hair, while Palu is a woodpecker because he is a shipwright. Only Enel calls them like that in the crew though.
Well, anyway, now the CP-0 Chief isn't looking good because Enel can still hurt him even though he has absorbed and transformed into a diamond. This is the hardest material that can negate lightning, so he is quite flustered. Furthermore, his ability has a time limit because the diamond isn't his power.
It will be really bad if he can't defeat Enel before he reaches his time limit. So he needs to go all-out from the start or he'll lose otherwise. Enel also decides to go all-out immediately because his opponent is the strongest among Cipher Pol agents who surely has a lot of cards.
They fight again and now the CP-0 Chief is holding his ground well against Enel's speed. The CP-0 Chief is also an Admiral class character who can use advanced armament haki. He can't use advanced observation haki and it is weaker than Enel's observation haki, but it's enough to help him catch sight of Enel's movements.
The clashes of advanced armament haki powered with devil fruit abilities are enough to shatter their surroundings and shake others' minds. But no one actually looks at them because they are also busy with their fights. There are still 5 God's Knights that they need to face, after all.
The 1st God's Knight has transformed into a massive mythical wolf, Fenrir. He is fighting Mantis, June, and a few crew members. They couldn't fight him alone because of his sheer size and highly destructive power.
As for the 2nd God's Knight that has turned into The World Serpent Jormungandr, Magnus is fighting him alone. Magnus is a Giant and he has gotten even bigger after transforming into his 3-headed 6-armed Asura form. Even so, he is still much smaller than Jormungandr whose body can cover almost a quarter of the entire ruins of Marie Geoise.
No one else can help him against an opponent that big, so they are focusing on the other 3 God's Knights. The 3rd God's Knight has turned into Gryphon and he is facing Manba, Maverick, and some crew members. Manba teamed up with Maverick because the Gryphon can fly, so Maverick's sniping ability will help them when their opponent flies.
The 4th God's Knight transformed into a Cerberus and he is facing Brook, Dela, and some crew members too. Brook, a revived person who should've been in hell is fighting the Hell's Gatekeeper, it's quite an interesting sight.
But that's not why he chose to fight this 3-headed dog from hell. It's because Brook can generate coldness using his devil fruit ability which can counter Cerberus' fire. This 3-headed dog has fire generated on some parts of his body and he can even shoot fire from his mouth, that's why Brook is the best counter for him.
Lastly, the 5th God's Knight is facing Deon, Ruff, and the remaining crew members. The 5th has transformed into Basilisk, which some said to be the King of Serpent. Deon's power is Chameleon, a reptile. So now this is a competition between reptiles. But it's not pure competition because Deon needs Ruff's help. Basilisk has powerful venom that can kill them in a short time. Ruff needs to do something about that venom in case they get poisoned. Even better if he can make an antidote for the venom, which is a very difficult job to do in such a short time, but a genius scientist like him is very excited by that challenge instead.
