Chapter 16 - A God? (1/2)

Ian didn't pay them attention, and directly flew to find the city.

Enel would be at upper yard. And could detect him even if he tried hiding using his Haki.

He would try to reason with the man, if not then he would kick his ass. Soon he flew off the milky road, and as soon as he stepped on the cloud floor, he was aware that Enel had detected him.

And soon he noticed how a massive lightning beam strike was heading his way. Ian didn't care for it much though and just continued flying to where he knew Enel is. Though even if his calm face was on, he was angry at this guy.

And while he was still on his way the lighting strike reached him, but was stopped and dispersed by an invisible shield surrounding Ian.

He was already forcing himself to calm down, because of this making him remember some actions in the past, so that he does not change the story too much, but this action of Enel right now got on his nerves.

He decided to give him a good beating he will remember, if he didn't agree to his conditions.

As soon as he located him, he practically teleported to there.

"So the Rat comes here by itself" Enel spoke calmly, but with a tone of superiority and arrogance. He was sitting on his throne like couch on God shrine.

Enel is a pale-skinned man with a well-toned yet somewhat wiry build, and is very tall at 266 cm (8'9"). He has a slim face, with a relaxed, half-lidded expression accentuated by a calm, confident smile. He has blond hair that is set in a large perm, tucked under a close-fitting, white skullcap. His eyebrows, contrastively, are black, rather thick, and top grayish-blue eyes with prominent bottom lashes. His nose is slim with a marked, flat bridge that has several lines run horizontally across it. Very distinctly, Enel's earlobes stretch all the way to his chest being weighed down by gold earrings with diamond-shaped pendants.

Upon his back, stuck centrally into his shoulder blades, is a large, gray ring and attached to it four wooden 'shime-daiko' drums set next to and above his head, each with cream-colored drum skin depicting a black 'mitsudomoe' on the front and back. Probably fond of gold he dons several rigid bracelets made of it.

Enel's only garments are on the legs ,a pant colored purple and orange and a flowing, indigo sash encircles his waist, bow-knotted at his right hip, one end of which is short while the other hangs to near-ground level.

Meanwhile Ian didn't have any visible reaction to his words whatsoever.

However he was getting even angrier by the second. Nobody would like to be belittled and called a rat, much less one possessing conqueror Haki.

"Fake God'. You have attacked me with no reason, and insulted me too. But it matters not. I have something to do on this island. And I will do it whether you like it or not. I just came to inform you of that. If you interfere I'll make sure you stay bedridden for at least a while." Ian said, with an even more condescending tone towards Enel. He was practically guiding him to attack him.

And it worked too.

"You come here to my place illegally, and then you insult me a god. I'll take your life for this mongrel" Enel pointed his right hand at Ian while speaking, and even if his tone was angry, he still didn't even get up from his sitting posture.

It was another irritating reason for Ian to beat him up well.

So when the lightning strike came at him he just slapped it away with a hand wrapped in energy.

"Do you really believe you are god? The normal people I get because of their ignorance. But you are smart enough no?" Ian said.

And Enel this time got up and stood his full height which is almost one meter towering over Ian. But he didn't care for it one bit.

Enel turned more serious possibly for how he easily swatted his attack aside. And possibly with him insulting his intelligence.

"I am a divine and immortal being. I am an invincible God. I can do, take, or destroy everything as I please. You have annoyed me, Rat, as such I'll enjoy killing you" Enel said as he reached to the back of his couch and took his Bo staff and rushed at Ian to attack.

Ian once heard Enel talk could not believe it. He even felt pity for the guy. As he had a god complex. Even though he knew it from before. Seeing it was another thing. It appeared that Enel had an unshakable belief of being supreme characterized by consistently inflated feelings of personal ability, privilege, or infallibility…

He effortlessly dodged his attempts to attack him as even if Enel was attacking it appeared he was not serious. He was possibly using the Bo staff to break him slowly.

Ian dodged another attack and kicked at his stomach with his leg coated in Haki.

'What I can see his attack coming… but I can't move my body' Enel panicked inside his head, and tried changing to lightening but was still hit all the same.

Enel didn't notice from the shock of being touched the black foot that hit him. He had thought to this day that he was untouchable. He was thrown a few meters backwards and raised a cloud of dust.

"Can you feel pain?" Enel who took a hit to the stomach and was trying to get up narrowed his eyes at Ian. "Does your body get tired?" Enel's facial features were getting ugly by the second. "Do you feel the need to sleep? If yes then how is it you are a god, when all I described is normal for humans." Ian finished with a mocking smile on his face.

"You ignorant Rat, I'll make sure to kill you as painful as possible. Ahhhhh" Enel spoke enraged at what Ian said, but still calm enough to fight rationally. And then charged while changing his Bo staff to a trident using his devil fruit.
