Chapter 113: Heading to the Summit War
"Rono, wait for me to coat the ship first. It will take about three days."
"Then we will set off from Fish-Man Island to the New World to meet our old friends."
Saying that, Rayleigh put down his wine bottle and was about to go for the coating.
He couldn't wait to meet his old comrades.
"No hurry, Rayleigh. I'm afraid there's no time."
"Isn't Portgas D. Ace captured?"
"He's going to be publicly executed in three days."
"The Marines are fully prepared, waiting for Whitebeard to go to his death. Aren't you going to do something?"
Rono's eyes shot out a ray of light.
The public execution in the original story was the all-out war between Whitebeard and the Marines.
Also known as the Summit War.
The scale was much smaller than God Valley.
But this great battle had great significance for the entire Great Pirate Era.
First, Whitebeard died in battle!
The king of the old generation withered, allowing Kaido to rise and become the [World's Strongest Creature].
Second, Roger's son Ace died in battle!
The bloodline of the Pirate King withered, allowing Luffy to rise!
But since Rono had crossed over, he definitely had to do something.
Especially these two, one was his close friend!
Whitebeard, who had been silently supporting him in the Rocks Pirates!
The other was the biological son of his close friend!
Rono couldn't just watch these two die and do nothing.
"Nani? Rono? You said Ace was captured?"
Just then, Luffy and the Straw Hat crew in the house asked in surprise.
They all knew that Ace and Luffy were brothers.
"Hehe, are you really that slow? The Marines are going to publicly execute Ace in Marineford in three days."
"And your brother was captured because he was trying to stop Blackbeard for you."
"Speaking of which, your brother saved your life."
Rono raised the wine glass in front of him, drank it all, and said.
"Ace!"
Luffy recalled the scene of meeting Ace in Alabasta, at a loss.
Ace had indeed told him that he was going to capture a pirate named Blackbeard.
How long has it been since they last met, and the next time he heard Ace's name, it was that he was going to be executed?!
"No, I have to go save Ace!"
Luffy decided to go rescue Ace.
"Luffy, that's an all-out war between the Yonko Whitebeard and the Marines!"
"Calm down! That's not something we can interfere with right now!"
Nami and Usopp quickly advised.
One Marine Admiral was enough to take down the Straw Hat Pirates in an instant.
Marine Headquarters had three Admirals!
And many Elite Vice Admirals! Even the Shichibukai would participate!
None of them were existences the Straw Hat Pirates could mess with!
"But that's my brother!" Luffy said firmly, not listening to anything.
The Straw Hat Pirates also knew that once Luffy decided on something, it couldn't be changed.
So they had to participate as a whole crew.
"By the way... aren't Rono and the others going to the public execution too? We'll just follow them!"
"Yeah, with the Dark King Rayleigh, [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono, and Shakky!"
Nami, Usopp, and Chopper immediately looked at Rono, Rayleigh, and Shakky with pleading eyes.
With the current strength of the Straw Hat Pirates, going to the Summit War was just asking for a beating.
They could only find a thicker thigh to hug.
Rono ignored the pleas of Nami and the others.
Right now, he had more important things to do.
"Let's go, Rayleigh, Shakky. I have something urgent to do now."
"It's best to come back before the public execution."
Rono pulled Rayleigh and Shakky and prepared to leave.
Rono's goal was also simple—the God on the Sky Island, Enel.
To be precise, Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit!
Among the Logia types, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was definitely at the top!
Not weaker than the Logia fruits of the current three Admirals!
Whether killing Enel to seize the Rumble-Rumble Fruit or recruiting Enel, both were urgent matters.
If he remembered correctly, Enel wanted to go to the moon after being defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates.
If he delayed further, it might be too late.
Absolutely couldn't let him go for nothing.
After all, he was gathering all the powerhouses in the world!
How could he be missing the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?
Even killing Enel and seizing the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was fine.
Rono now possessed the Devil Power of the Dark-Dark Fruit and could kill an ability user and extract the ability.
Giving this fruit to any potential talent could create another Emperor-level powerhouse!
In about 2 days, Rono, Rayleigh, and Shakky finally reached the Sky Island.
Since Enel was defeated, the Sky Island was also freed from high-pressure rule.
There were no so-called Four Priests, nor the old woman who charged exorbitant entrance fees.
Rono's group of three arrived at the God's Shrine on the Sky Island very smoothly!
"Rono, what are you doing on the Sky Island? To get the Poneglyph?"
Seeing that Rono's urgent matter was actually to come to the Sky Island, Rayleigh was a bit puzzled.
Besides the City of Gold and the Poneglyph, there was nothing on the Sky Island worth Rono's attention.
"You'll know in a moment, Rayleigh."
Rono showed a mysterious smile.
Immediately, the three walked into the shrine and immediately saw a familiar figure!
About 2.6 meters tall, wearing earrings that stretched his earlobes, bare-chested, and wearing hakama pants!
No mistake, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit user · Enel!
At this time, Enel's injuries were almost healed.
He was busy repairing his precious Ark Maxim—
It was shaped like a spaceship, and the most eye-catching feature was the huge human face mask made of gold on the deck.
It looked very luxurious.
A large character for "God" was also written on the side of the ship in red cinnabar.
Full of chuunibyou vibes!
After the ship was repaired, Enel would start this ship and head to the endless land in his heart—the moon!
"Gah?! Someone broke in?"
"Are you three Blue Sea people?"
"Damn, too focused, didn't even notice someone broke in!"
At this time, Enel was too focused on repairing the Ark Maxim and didn't notice someone had broken in.
So he was startled when he saw Rono, Rayleigh, and the others!
Actually, it wasn't that Enel didn't open his Observation Haki, but Rono's Conqueror's Haki—Observation Killing!
Made Enel's Observation Haki ineffective.
"Anyone who trespasses on God's land must die!"
"This is the consequence of offending God!"
"Die, God's Judgment!"
Before Rono, Rayleigh, and Shakky could speak.
Enel directly activated his ability.
Three bolts of lightning fell from the sky.
"Rumble-Rumble Fruit user?"
"This is the Devil Fruit known as the strongest Logia, not weaker than the fruits of the current three Admirals."
Seeing this lightning.
Shakky and Rayleigh were also slightly surprised.
The name of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was very famous.
Even a person with no talent who ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit would be enough to make a name for themselves in the sea.
Even in the era when Roger, Whitebeard, and Golden Lion were competing for hegemony.
There was also a great pirate who ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, with a bounty reaching nearly 2 billion.
But after he was killed, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit disappeared.
It turned out to be eaten by such a little brat.
At the same time, the two also understood why Rono went to such great lengths to go to this Sky Island.
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit was indeed worth a trip!
Swish swish swish!
Rono didn't even have to make a move. Rayleigh took out his sword and coated it with Armament Haki.
Easily and gracefully cut off these three bolts of lightning!
"Gah?! Actually able to cut God's judgment?"
Enel was stunned!
He felt his worldview was collapsing!
Not long ago, there was a rubber man from the Blue Sea whom he couldn't kill no matter how he hit him!
Now there was another guy who could cut God's judgment!
What's wrong with this world?
