Chapter 16 - Your Devil Fruit Has Evolved!

Nearby, the Shandia Warriors were watching the battle between the two forces and were shocked.

"T-They are completely massacring Enel's Army, all the priests are dead, so easily" said a dumbfounded Gan Fall.

"W-Who are these people? They are way too strong" gulped Raki as she looked at the Demonic Squad.

Enel who could sense the entire Island was not alarmed at first but as he saw his entire Army slaughtered with such ease he was alerted and dashed towards the battlefield.

He saw a guy floating in the air with long dark blue draconic wings.

"Who the f.u.c.k are you! HOW DARE YOU!" he screamed in anger as he released several powerful bolts of lightning towards him.

"Hmph, I suffered quite a loss because of acting a little slow, but this will be enough to crush you , after killing you I will slaughter your entire crew" he scoffed as he saw his lightning bolts hit Cronus as he thought the latter was unable to dodge his lightning.

But when the smoke cleared he saw him standing there unfazed with not a single scratch as his mouth hung open.

"H-H-H-HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE!?" he screamed as his eyes almost popped out in shock.

The Shandia Warriors had the same expression as they felt their entire world view crash and shatter into a million pieces.

"H-H-How is that possible? Those lightning bolts could destroy chunks of an entire Island he is not even harmed" screamed Gan Fall.

"Hahaha, as I thought, being a Thunder Dragon makes me immune to any and all forms of electricity" laughed Cronus as the lightning bolts simply whirled around him and dissipated unable to harm him.

In that moment of shock, Enel was too dumbfounded to use his Mantra and Cronus did not waste this chance as he dashed forward appearing right in front of him.

He tried to convert himself into lightning but because he was too dumbfounded he didn't use Mantra as he dodged the attack a second late, but it was too late as Cronus's haki covered draconic claw swiped his c.h.e.s.t carving out three horizontal gashes as the latter slammed into the forest.

"W-what strength! He could actually harm the invincible Enel" said a shocked Gan Fall.

"Skypiea is finally saved , Enel can be finally destroyed once and for all" cheered the rest of the Shandia Warriors as they saw Cronus hover in the sky majestically.

"Ah shit, couldn't get him in one shot" sighed Cronus, the latter could convert his entire body into lightning making him terrifyingly fast as he barely managed to make it out alive.

Enel was Level 25 while he was Level 27, thus he had vastly more physical strength than his enemy and could gravely injure him even without using Thunder as it would also not affect his Enel.

Enel who was spurting blood was enraged and scared, as a Logia he had never been injured before and lived mightily as a god thinking he was invincible but today his world view was shattered as this man actually injured him and was also immune to his attacks.

He converted into lightning and started running around Cronus at an extremely fast speed as he aimed to attack him with his golden staff when the latter was vulnerable.

What he did not know was that his enemy also had Observation Haki which he had unlocked when he reached Level 20 and while it may not be as polished as him it was enough to guard against an incoming attack.

Enel suddenly dashed straight towards the back of Cronus at lightning speed as he slammed his staff at his throat aiming to butcher him into pieces.

In the last moment, Cronus , thanks to his Observation Haki sensed the incoming attack and slightly tilted his neck as the staff went right next to his face as it hit thin air.

He then turned around the top half of his body as his left hand grabbed the throat of Enel thanks to Armament Haki.

"Y-you, how can you touch me! WHAT IS THIS POWER?!" he screamed in fear as he was unable to turn into lightning and run away.

"What's this? It's the power that will end you" said Cronus as he slammed his right fist covered in Haki straight into his stomach as the latter spurted blood and his c.h.e.s.t caved in cracking all of his ribs and was smashed into the ground right in front of the Shandia Warriors.

"I-I-I can't believe it, Enel is defeated, he is actually defeated," said the Shandia Warriors who were shaking in both fear and joy.

Cronus slowly descended as Enel was barely alive, he tried to crawl away as his body was covered in blood. His body flickered with faint lightning as slowly crawled away from the crater he was in.

"Why are you running?" asked Cronus as he stepped on his back and covered his other foot in haki and kicked him to death.

*Merging*

"Oh, hahahha, this is wonderful" laughed Cronus as his arms and wings turned into lightning as the entire forest was now being struck with powerful lightning bolts as his fruit was being converted into a Logia.

*Your Devil Fruit has evolved*

*Mythical Zoan Logia Apocalyptic Thunder Dragon*

"I am now a Mythical Zoan that is also a Logia, what an amazing feeling," thought Cronus as he felt his body convert into lightning as his neurons raced faster than before as he could now think faster than before

Moving around in his new Hybrid Logia form was amazing as he felt the surrounding world slow down as he simply moved around in the skies above Skypiea.

He looked at the Shandia Warriors who were kneeling as he had an idea, " I AM THE NEW GOD OF SKYPIEA" he roared as the entire island shook with his new power.

The Shandia Warriors who saw him punch Enel into the ground creating the huge crater and saw the pathetic once-invincible Enel crawl out pathetically who was subsequently kicked to death in just a couple of minutes were overcome with overwhelming emotions.

As they heard his proclamation and saw the sight of him transforming as the island itself started shaking they all kowtowed in respect and worship.

That Cronus was a god who had come to save them.
