章 143: Conquer Enel In One Move

As Arias consumed the fruit, in a private house on Birka, a young man with an aunt's head also swallowed the Golden Fruit he had in his hand.

"Ugh!!!"

The young man's complexion drastically changed, fearing that the fruit might be poisonous. He squatted on the ground, pressing his throat, trying to force himself to vomit the pulp.

After a prolonged effort, all he managed to expel was some acidic stomach fluid.

"Hoo ho ho!"

Collapsing on the ground and gasping for breath, the young man suddenly noticed that his arms had transformed into electricity!

"Huh?"

It seemed he could control the thunder and lightning. Soon, he discovered that his entire body had become electricity, darting around the room at incredible speeds.

Zizzi!

Electricity shot through the window, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the edge of Birka.

He waved his hand, summoning a bolt of lightning.

"530! Haha! I am a god! I have become the God of Thunder!"

The young man laughed maniacally. "What powerful Qinghai people? In the presence of a god, you can only kneel!"

Thunderclouds gathered around him, and bathing in the thunder, he felt an unprecedented surge of power.

"Destroy! Destroy everything!"

The thought of destruction consumed him, and the thunder over Birka became overwhelmingly fierce.

"Why is it thundering so violently?"

Birka's residents peeked out of their homes, alarmed by the unprecedented storm. They had never witnessed such intense thunder.

The entire island was bathed in white lightning, and the sky was filled with nothing but thunder and lightning.

In the island owner's mansion, Arias stood with his hands behind his back. Yuli and Delia, startled by the explosive thunder, looked at him anxiously.

"Brother Arias, why is there such intense thunder all of a sudden? Will Birka be destroyed?"

If all these thunderbolts struck, Birka could indeed be obliterated.

Arias replied calmly, "It's not a problem; he's just a fool."

Clearly, the Thunder Fruit had been consumed by Enel. No wonder Arias had been unable to locate it despite his thorough search of the island.

He wondered if Enel planned to destroy Birka outright, but it was more likely that, being new to the Devil Fruit's power, he couldn't control the violent energy and was unintentionally wreaking havoc.

"Don't worry. Continue with your tasks. I'll go take a look and return shortly."

Arias issued the order, drew a sword control talisman in the air, summoned his spirit sword, and vanished instantly.

The speed of the sword far surpassed the elemental transformation of the Yunyun Fruit.

In the blink of an eye, Arias arrived at the source of the thunderstorm.

As expected, there was an arrogant young man standing amidst the chaos.

Although he wasn't wearing a white turban, his distinctive appearance made him easily recognizable.

"It's Enel!"

Arias extended his hand to summon a large white cloud that completely covered the thunder. The cloud then condensed into dark clouds, and from within, lightning struck, dismantling all the thunder Enel had gathered.

"Who are you?"

Enel, seeing a man with a sword who had just appeared and shattered his thunder, felt a pang of fear.

"Do you want to live or die?"

Arias asked coldly.

Enel sneered, "A mere bug from Qinghai dares to speak to a god like this?"

He was arrogant and dismissive.

He transformed into lightning and charged at Arias, but before he could reach him, a powerful hand grabbed his neck.

The hands, covered in military colors, easily gripped Enel's throat.

With Enel's poor physical abilities, he had no chance of escaping.

"You!"

Enel's eyes widened in disbelief. Before he could react, Arias's other hand sliced through his chest like a knife, extracting his heart and surrounding tissue.

Arias tossed Enel to the ground, holding the heart and stepping on him.

"As long as I crush this heart, you will die."

"If you don't want to die, kneel before me!"

Enel, jolted from his godly delusions, realized his vulnerability. Despite his unwillingness, the fear of death forced him to comply. He knelt in despair, his gaze fixed on the beating heart in Arias's hand and the gaping wound in his chest.

Arias placed the heart into a sac. "Come with me and call me master from now on."

Tears of humiliation welled in Enel's eyes, but he had no choice. "Yes, Master!"

Following Arias, Enel transformed into lightning again and trailed closely behind him.

Back at the island owner's mansion, Yuli was surprised to see Arias accompanied by a shirtless young man without a heart.

However, she paid it little mind and embraced Arias happily, smiling. "Brother Arias, Lei Lei is truly gone!"

Her admiration for Arias grew even more.

After enjoying a meal prepared by Delia, Arias gathered Delia, Yuli, and Enel.

"Do you want to become stronger?"

"Stronger?" Yuli was confused, but Enel's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Do you want to be as strong as master?"

Arias nodded. "Exactly."

"Yes!"

Enel agreed eagerly, already planning his revenge once he became stronger.

Arias noticed his intent but wasn't concerned. He could easily handle any trouble Enel might cause.

If he weren't concerned about where the Thunder Fruit would appear after Enel's death, he wouldn't have kept him around.

When he obtained the Dark Fruit later, Enel would be unnecessary.

Yuli, on the other hand, showed no interest in becoming stronger. "I don't need to be as strong as Brother Arias. It's enough that he can protect me."

Arias shook his head and didn't press her. He turned to Delia. "What about you?"

Delia, unlike her daughter, replied firmly, "I want to become stronger!"

If she had been as strong as Arias, she wouldn't have suffered such humiliation in the past.

She couldn't stand by and let her daughter be harassed by the island owner's son.

Years of fear that her daughter might fall into the same traps she did were alleviated by Arias's intervention.

However, Delia knew that Arias was from Qinghai and would eventually leave Sky Island. She needed to be able to protect herself.

"Good."

Arias began teaching them how to practice Qi. Yuli, initially uninterested, was compelled to learn by her mother, Delia.

Delia encouraged her, "Your brother Arias will leave Sky Island eventually. If you can't contribute, he won't take you with him. But if you become stronger, he might bring you along on his adventures."

Motivated by this prospect, Yuli became enthusiastic about her training and dedicated herself to learning.
