The next day everyone woke up, and Ken again chose to be away from the group. The crew couldn't understand why Ken was so far away from the group, but they didn't stop him. And after an hour of his departure, Enel finally showed up.
Ussop, in order to prove his bravery, was the first one to go and face Enel, as he thought that this was some other priest. A few minutes ago, a round ball priest had appeared, and he was being played on by Sanji as he was kicked around like a huge football.
Thus, Ussop got jealous and wanted to show his bravery to his friends. That was the first and greatest mistake Ussop had done since he had climbed the staircase that led to Merry. He stepped into the air and stood on the opposite side of Enel.
And then he took out his bow and shot at Enel. It was there that they came to know that Enel was the one Ken had spoken about earlier and the one they felt kept an eye on them. The arrows went through his body as he elementalized himself.
"Ussop!!" Luffy had a very bad feeling about this, and he was right. Enel proceeded to pump in 500,000 volts on Ussop, and though he tried to dodge it, it was already too late. The huge electric discharge went through his body, and from there he proceeded to fall on the ground.
Sanji flew up and caught the unconscious Ussop and brought him down. Chopper ran to see if he was alive and was grateful that his heartbeat was fine. He was unconscious because his skin was burned to a crisp and the pain was too much for him.
Zoro, Sanji, and Luffy got really angry at this. 'Never hurt their friends,' had been their crew's motto.And Enel did that in front of his crew.
Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro all went into fighting mode. Zoro used his sun breathing while also coating his sword with Armament Haki; the fire patterns on the sword lit up like the bright sun, Sanji had huge fire burning under his feet, and Luffy did hand signs and summoned 10 clones.
Normally Luffy never liked summoning clones, as he felt it was an insult to his power, but here he couldn't just let go of what happened. Though Enel showed a straight face, his heart skipped a beat seeing these men with such a huge aura looking at him with death-glare eyes.
But he needed to keep his promise no matter what. And thus the epic brawl of 1 v. 3 started. Enel was pretty cunning in this fight. He didn't let his ego get the better of him. Ken had spoken about his lightning having no effect on Luffy, so he took the other route.
And that was heat. Though Luffy could use fire and would be highly immune to it in the future, that didn't mean he was absolutely safe from heat. And Enel used that. He took out his golden spear and made it change its shape using electricity. Electricity actually worked as heat here and made the golden spear super hot.
Enel was high up in the air floating, and only Sanji was able to fly. Sanji's style of flying wasn't the typical one, and he could only use his feet as thrusters. Thus, he could only use his feet for a few seconds before he could stop himself from tasting the grass.
Thus, Zoro wasn't able to be that impressive in the fight and could only make his move when Luffy and Zoro gave him a boost. Luffy gave him a boost by making a huge pillar on which Zoro ran and delivered a strike at Enel while Luffy did the same and jumped in the air to punch at Enel.
He knew that using any kind of elemental ninjutsu on this guy was useless, as he was almost like a bolt of lightning, and only Haki could reign supreme. But here was the thing: Enel too had observation haki, and it was not like Ken's, who had been training it for quite some time.
And thus, even though these guys had armor, they would have to land the attack. And on top of that, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji needed to avoid the lightning discharge and the huge spear of gold.
Chopper and others were ready to help the three since they thought they were capable enough, but Robin stopped them.
"Robin, what are you doing? We can use our own powers against this long earlobe guy." Nami was a bit irritated.
"Yes, we can use my technology too to divert all the electricity being produced by this guy and drain him to the ground." Vivi said that was the way lightning was discharged in homes.
Yes, we must help Luffy-kun." Cricket also beat his chest, just like Shojo and Mashira.
"No.. Don't you think it's weird?" Robin asked.
"What is weird?" Chopper asked.
"The whole situation," Robin said.
"What do you mean?" Vivi asked.
"Such a huge fight is going on, and Ken hasn't shown up. He is the best at manipulating lightning and would be the best to handle this god that had shown up." Robin reminded Ken that one of his primary powers was lightning, and he was known for keeping an eye on everything around him.
But he hadn't shown up. This guy was probably the most powerful on the whole island, and Ken didn't bother to come to help his crew. This was very fishy.
"He must be held back for some other thing," Chopper didn't much of the absence of Ken.
"No, he has been away since yesterday. There must be a reason." Robin argued back.
"So what are you saying? He isn't helping us deliberately?" Nami asked, as she could see what Robin was getting at.
"Yes. Maybe he was the one who sent this guy to us." Robin as she spoke of her suspicions.
