Chapter 114: Die or Submit
"He ate the powerful Rumble-Rumble Fruit, yet he's surprisingly weak."
"Doesn't he even know about Armament Haki?"
Seeing Enel's stunned look, Rayleigh was also a bit speechless.
Such a powerful fruit was eaten by someone who didn't even know about Armament Haki.
"Weak?"
"How dare you insult God?"
"But seeing as you have some skills, I can give you a chance."
"As long as you become servants of God, I can spare your lives!"
Enel looked at Rono's group of three and suddenly changed his mind.
He was going to the endless land now and happened to be short of a few servants.
Although two of these three were a bit old, it was better than nothing.
Serving tea, fetching water, scrubbing floors, they could barely manage.
As for the young one, he was perfect for hard labor.
"Is this guy a retard?"
"He doesn't think he's invincible just because he ate a Logia Devil Fruit, does he?"
Shakky was also speechless. It was the first time she had seen such an arrogant guy.
"It's probably because he's never seen the world; he doesn't recognize us."
Rayleigh analyzed accurately.
It wasn't that Rayleigh was boasting, but the title of the Pirate King's vice-captain was known to almost everyone.
To be asked to be a servant like this, besides the Celestial Dragons, Enel was the first.
"Rayleigh, Shakky, I remember you two haven't eaten a fruit, right?"
"How about the Rumble-Rumble Fruit? It's considered one of the quite powerful fruits."
"Who wants it?"
Rono turned and asked the two.
Looking at Enel's retarded appearance, it was better if he didn't get on the ship.
With his chuunibyou personality, if he got on the ship, he would definitely offend many big shots in the future and be beaten to death sooner or later.
Better to die here.
"I'm old, why would I eat a fruit?"
"Leave the fruit for a suitable person."
Rayleigh and Shakky shook their heads, rejecting Rono's proposal.
Their strength had long reached its peak, and they knew the limits of their strength.
Even eating a fruit wouldn't change much.
And the two were old and had long been accustomed to fighting with Haki and Taijutsu.
Eating a fruit at an old age wouldn't unleash much power.
Instead, they would gain the weakness of not being able to swim. No matter how you think about it, it's not worth it.
"Alright, then let's kill this guy first and distribute his fruit later."
Rono said flatly and then unleashed his Conqueror's Haki!
Boom!
An overwhelming aura rose!
Dark red airwaves spread continuously.
The originally clear sky instantly became filled with rolling thunder and churning sea of clouds!
"This.. what is this aura!"
"Why... does it make people want to kneel!"
Enel was breathless under the pressure of this Conqueror's Haki.
He even had an urge to kneel on the ground and submit.
"2... 200 million... volts...!"
"Raigo!"
Enel wanted to activate Raigo, but found that under this powerful aura, he couldn't do anything at all.
Because he was terrified from the bottom of his heart!
"I was thinking of recruiting you, but... you should die here."
Rono smiled faintly and drew the Shodai Kitetsu.
Wrapping Conqueror's Haki around the Shodai Kitetsu.
Behind Rono, a terrifying devilish face appeared!
Swish!
Immediately, a simple and unadorned sword strike was swung, transforming into a white ribbon dozens of meters long in the air!
Although the volume of the sword energy was small, the terrifying Conqueror's Coating and ghostly aura contained within were not!
Even Rayleigh on the side was secretly surprised.
As expected of Rono.
At the same time, Rono's Observation Killing was activated.
Enel, who was born with powerful Observation Haki, didn't even have time to react.
Directly slashed by the sword energy!
Pfft!
From Enel's right shoulder to his left waist, a terrifying bloody gash deep to the bone opened up instantly!
At the same time, his whole body fell heavily backward, and his heart stopped beating!
One slash, instant kill!
Easy!
"Is he dead? A little brat who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
Shakky calmly took a drag on her cigarette and blew out a smoke ring.
"Not yet... this guy's life is quite tough."
Rono checked the system notification.
He didn't receive any notification of picking up Devil Power.
And his Dark-Dark Fruit's Devil Power didn't fluctuate either.
If he died, there should be a notification.
This meant Enel was not dead yet.
The next moment.
Crack~ crack~
The sound of electricity crackled, concentrating on Enel's heart.
Thump, thump!
After a tremor, the heart started beating again!
"Pfft!"
Spitting out a large mouthful of old blood accumulated in his throat, Enel gasped for breath and came back to life!
"So scary, that slash just now! Almost died!"
Lying on the ground, Enel only felt the place where he was cut was burning like fire, extremely painful!
And all his strength seemed to be drained.
He didn't even have the strength to stand up.
"Using electrical energy as a source to vibrate his own heart, similar to a defibrillation surgery, he came back to life."
"The development of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit is not bad..."
Rayleigh rarely expressed appreciation for Enel's ability.
Although he was a little brat who didn't even know what Armament Haki was, to be able to develop the fruit to this extent.
It wasn't something an ordinary person could do.
No wonder he caught Rono's eye.
"Well, Enel, have you seen the vastness of heaven and earth?"
"Choose to submit, or die."
Rono walked to Enel's side at this time and asked.
He held back just now and didn't shatter Enel's heart.
Instead, he chose to cut him once as a warning.
He had the strength to crush him at any time.
Otherwise, even if Enel had electroshock therapy, it would be impossible for him to come back to life if his heart was shattered.
"I.. I submit!"
"I am willing to submit!"
Enel felt the extremely oppressive aura emanating from Rono!
At the same time, because Rono had retracted his Observation Killing, Enel's "Mantra" also sensed Rono's thoughts!
If he didn't submit, he would really die!
This guy in front of him was the natural enemy of God!
Although Enel was chuunibyou enough, facing the huge gap in strength, he finally chose to bow to reality!
"Very good! With your current strength, it's still too early to be an official crew member."
"Just be an apprentice for now."
Feeling that the arrogant aura on Enel was gone, Rono also nodded and no longer had the intention to kill.
After all, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was indeed developed very well by Enel.
Especially his innate powerful Observation Haki, which, combined with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, could achieve super-large-scale perception.
Even monitoring what the people of the entire Sky Island said and did, a quite terrifying ability.
If he could calm down and systematically learn Haki.
And strengthen his Taijutsu training, the sea would have another Emperor-level powerhouse!
This was also why Rono didn't kill Enel but gave him another chance.
