SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 73 out, this is Chapter 74 of this fic and I am finally back on the On Piece bandwagon. For everyone who put this fic on your favorited and followed lists and/or story alerts, thank you, but remember everyone, a lot of authors (myself included) sustain on readers' reviews.
Pairings: Ace/Sasha, sibling Luffy/Sasha and Sabo/Sasha, patriotic-retainer Law/Sasha
Disclaimers: One Piece belongs to Oda EiichirÅ-sensei. Me, on the other hand, own absolutely nothing, except my OC.
Chapter 74: Arc 6: Luffy and Sasha Vs. Enel, The Aerial Fight on the Maxim!
"Such a nuisance." Enel snorted. "One of the gears have been dislodged." he realized. "I must reset it." he vanished into the engine room in a flash.
"Good, he's gone." Usopp peered over the wall. "Sanji, Sasha, Nami fell safely to the Island Cloud."
"Good." Sasha nodded. "The two of you, get out of here." she instructed.
"But, Sasha-hime..." Sanji protested.
"Now!" Sasha snapped. "I'm ending Enel's ambitions and I don't want the both of you to be caught in this attack."
"Right." Usopp nodded. "Sanji, come on!" he pulled Sanji off as Sasha materialized the 'Frozen Judgment'.
"You infernal Blue Sea dweller." Enel growled, seeing the damage Sanji had done. "Did you think it would be that easy to drop my Ark from the sky? I know every detail about its propulsion mechanisms. Even without electrical power, there is a backup system from my homeland, Bilka which uses the power of 200 the extinct Jet Dials and can keep the Ark afloat for a full hour. You pathetic mortals can resist all you want." he pushed the displaced gear back. "This land's final performance will not be denied."
Holding out 'Frozen Judgment', Sasha focused her power and expanded the sword's freezing air outwards. "Frozen Release: Subjugation of the Heavens." she intoned, taking advantage o the darkening clouds. The temperature started pummeling rapidly as ice formed on the Ark's deck; ever so slowly, the oars started freezing over.
"So, the rat scurried away." Enel noted, exiting the engine room when he felt the floor turn cold and a sudden gust of cold air blasted into his face. "What in the world... you!" he glared at the water elemental. "What did you do?" he demanded, seeing the Ark was slowly being coated in ice. "Stop it! If you continue, the both of us will... stop it!" he charged at her, intending to force Sasha to cease her actions.
"Don't think you're gonna get away with this, Enel!" Luffy shouted, running up the Giant Jack, the golden ball still attached to his hand.
"Release this!" Enel barked, finding his feet frozen to the floor by the rapidly forming ice as the Ark continued rising up the Giant Jack.
Sasha reminded silent as 'Frozen Judgment's freezing aura continued pulsing out of the claymore blade.
"What's with this place?" Luffy wondered, bursting through a layer of cloud. "There you are!" he spotted Enel. "You just wait right there!" he shot up the beanstalk. "Enel!" extending his arm, he gripped onto a portion of the wall that was still not frozen. "I'm going to ring that bell!" he roared, slamming the golden ball into Enel and unwittingly freeing him from his frozen prison.
"So this is it." Enel teleported before the Golden Belfry. "Magnificent! This is what the great city of Shandora revered above all else: the Great Belfry! Splendid! Truly befitting myself, the almighty God. This is the bell that signaled the beginning of this land's 400 years of war. But, their efforts will be all for naught."
"Aniki, stop Enel." Sasha muttered. "I'll destroy the Ark."
"I have achieved all of my goals." Enel bragged, as he readied a Raigo attack to totally destroy Skypiea. "All that's left is to use this Raigo to destroy this land and the Cumuloregalis cloud and set out for Fairy Vearth. Farewell, Skypiea. Mamaragan." using the Deathpiea thunderclouds, he sent down even more powerful lightning bolts. "It's large enough." he decided, ready to bring down Raigo. "Now disappear along with this irksome land! What can you do before this insurmountable power?" he mocked as Luffy jumped off the Ark. "Man of Rubber?"
"Gomu Gomu no Hanabi, Golden Peony!" Luffy, using the Golden Ball attached to his arm to hit the descending Raigo with his rapid punches. "You and your thunder! We made it all the way to Sky Island and you had to come and turn the weather bad. You lightning jerk!"
"So what?" Enel growled. "I'll just drop it before you can destabilize it. Everything is as good as gone! My Ark!" he exclaimed in horror when he saw the Maxim was now half frozen.
"Clear the sky!" Luffy diffused the Raigo.
"You dare destroy my Raigo!" Enel growled.
"Dragon Hail Flower!" Sasha cast the attack, the large sword-shaped ice piercing the Ark breadth-wise and split the flying ship into half.
"My Ark!" Enel was shocked to see his masterpiece in two.
"See ya." Luffy grinned. "I'm gonna ring you with it. Gomu Gomu no Golden Rifle!" and slammed his twisted arm that was attached to the Golden Ball straight into Enel's body, the impact sending Enel crashing into the Golden Belfry and shattering the Golden Ball.
"Enel," Sasha stated plainly, the so-called God landing face up on a nearby cloud. "The Goro Goro Fruit is wasted on the likes of you." swapping out 'Frozen Judgment' with the 'Heart of the Ocean', she plunged the blade into Enel, the sword glowing a watery blue. "Release." she commanded and pulled out the sword, the Goro Goro Fruit now reformed on the blade. "With this, your ambitions ends once and for all." she then watched calmly as Enel fall down from the cloud to the White Sea.
SailorStar9: Any OOC-nes is regretted. *Sighs* Don't you just hate plot bunnies sometimes? Reviews are much appreciated.
