58 Chapter 58: Another Soul Attack

The moment Luo Ning finished speaking, a bolt of lightning flashed, and then a figure materialized in midair.

"People from below actually know of this god's existence and even dared to block my divine judgment!"

Enel appeared before Luo Ning and Nami, but he exhibited no nervousness at the moment, which was unsurprising. He held an unwavering belief in his invincibility, confident that no attack could faze him.

He had always been invincible. No matter the attack, it had no effect on him.

Although Luo Ning blocked his God's Judgment, Enel could easily unleash that kind of attack again.

"Any questions?"

Luo Ning asked with a smile, completely ignoring Enel.

Enel's Devil Fruit development was indeed impressive, and his mastery of Observation Haki was highly advanced. However, his physical prowess remained a significant weakness. Additionally, he lacked awareness of Armament Haki.

Originally, based solely on his Devil Fruit development, Enel estimated he could quickly reach the level of Aokiji and others who had recently become Admirals.

However, Enel couldn't compare to the current Aokiji and his peers. After all, they had held the Admiral position for a long time, constantly honing their skills throughout that period.

While Enel's Goro Goro no Mi (Rumble-Rumble Fruit) boasts immense power, its development pales in comparison to others.

The three Admirals, despite their shortcomings, remain formidable even with those weaknesses. Zephyr constantly criticizes Kizaru and his colleagues for their overreliance on their Devil Fruit abilities. However, their overall skillset surpasses that of the average Vice Admiral. Not everyone is cut out for such a demanding role.

Enel's dominance was restricted to knowledge and Devil Fruit mastery. Otherwise, his development in other aspects was lacking.

His perspective is still too limited. Otherwise, he wouldn't be entirely content with his current abilities.

"What's the issue?! Of course, there's a problem! You people from the Blue Sea are truly arrogant. Do you believe blocking one attack makes you invincible?!"

Enel's laughter pierced the air, a peculiar sound. While his signature "hahaha" remained, it was an improvement over his other, more bizarre laughs. Pirates in the One Piece world have a penchant for strange laughter.

"Thirty million volts, Thunderbird!"

A thunderous explosion erupted from the giant drum behind Enel, manifesting a phoenix-shaped Thunderbird that charged towards Luo Ning and Nami.

"Fantasy, Insulation!"

Luo Ning positioned himself in front of Nami, conjuring an insulating barrier with his imagination. Enel's Thunderbird struck him, eliciting no reaction whatsoever.

Luo Ning's body, while impervious to the electrical assault, wasn't keen on the experience. He wasn't a masochist, so he simply conjured an insulating barrier through his imagination, rendering Enel's thunder and lightning useless.

High temperatures and the like posed no problem for him.

Luo Ning recalled past debates concerning Luffy's, the rubber man, immunity to Enel's lightning. While conductive, the extreme heat generated could have theoretically harmed Luffy. However, Luffy wasn't just rubber; he was a user of the Gomu Gomu no Mi (Rubber-Rubber Fruit), a Devil Fruit power, not ordinary rubber. Therefore, his resistance wasn't illogical.

"Useless? Sixty million volts, Brontosaurus!"

Enel escalated the voltage, but his lightning proved ineffective against Luo Ning. Nami, shielded by Luo Ning, remained completely unaffected. This frustration began to gnaw at Enel.

"Why are you unaffected by my lightning?"

Enel couldn't comprehend it. No matter how resilient his opponent, some form of injury should have resulted from his attacks. Yet, their clothes remained pristine. It was maddening.

Luo Ning, unfazed by Enel's disbelief, launched a direct punch.

He imbued his hands with Reiatsu. Since Enel was a Logia-type and Luo Ning lacked Haki, a physical attack wouldn't connect. However, his aim was the soul.

Seeing Luo Ning charge, Enel transformed his body into lightning, unconcerned about physical harm.

Luo Ning's punch landed squarely on one of Enel's arms, shattering it instantly.

However, Enel's nonchalance vanished in the next second. His face contorted in pain as his arm rapidly regenerated, yet a scream ripped through the air as he clutched the limb. The arm, while visibly intact, was now useless.

When Luo Ning attacked Aokiji, his strike landed on the Admiral's abdomen. While causing immense pain, the blow had minimal impact on Aokiji's combat effectiveness.

Limbs and the head, however, were a different story. Soul damage in these critical areas could lead to complete loss of control.

Enel's arm, though physically whole, was now unusable. Luo Ning's attack had severed its soul, rendering it an inert appendage. Even with intact nerves, the arm wouldn't function.

The soul is the essence. The agonizing pain from the severed soul connection was far beyond the tolerance of an average person. Unlike Aokiji's unwavering willpower, Enel succumbed to the excruciating torment, letting out a bloodcurdling scream.
