One Piece: Lord Of Shadows

Chapter 31: Puppet Shadow String



"Boom..."

Inside the magnificent palace, flames billowed, smoke and dust flew.

In the blink of an eye, a sharp spear pierced Enel's chest, and his head was beheaded by a sharp sword…

But Enel was completely unharmed.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."

The wound that should have been bleeding not only did not have a single drop of blood splash out but it was also intertwined with strands of lightning.

"You... Yahahaha, interesting!" Looking at the four priests who suddenly betrayed him, Enel was full of surprise but also disdainful.

"String?"

He seemed to feel something.

Then, he moved to one side as if he were dodging something.

At the same time, he noticed that there were black Strings connected to those priests' shadows, which were so thin that they were almost invisible to the naked eye if he didn't pay attention.

"Hmm?"

The next moment.

He frowned slightly.

He felt as if his body was imprisoned.

"Hiss..." In an instant, he turned into a ball of lightning, disappeared from the spot, and appeared a few meters away.

"Enel-sama, it's not me..."

"We can't control ourselves at all!"

Shura, Gedatsu, Satori, and Ohm were horrified and angry.

But no matter how hard they tried to struggle, they still couldn't control themselves.

They turned around and continued to attack Enel.

"I know..."

Enel's face was calm, but he didn't mean to hold back at all.

He stomped his feet: "Five million volts: Electric Discharge!"

"Hiss, hiss, chirp..."

In an instant, amazing lightning kept surging out from his body.

"Ahhh..."

In an instant, the four high priests, along with the two pale-faced maids who were frightened and at a loss, were all hit directly by the lightning that kept raging from the ground, making them scream miserably.

They were charred all over and fell trembling.

"Swish...swish..."

"Enel-sama..."

"Damn it, what happened?"

"I'm so sorry, God; please forgive my sins!"

"I can't control myself..."

At this time, a large number of soldiers rushed over one after another.

They were all members of the Divine Squad who were guarding outside.

But each of them had a struggle and fear on their faces as they held their weapons and attacked Enel together.

"Thirty Million Volts: Thunder Bird!"

Enel frowned, and then the golden staff in his hand directly hit the drum behind him.

"Hiss, hiss, chirp..."

All of a sudden, the drum flashed with lightning.

The dazzling thunder turned into a huge bird that flapped its wings and flew out.

"Ahhh..." The members of the Divine Squad who rushed up were all burned black by the lightning and screamed miserably.

They fell there with their life and death unknown, making the whole palace a mess.

"Ka...ka..."

But the next moment, regardless of the four high priests who had fallen or the members of the Divine Squad who had lost most of their lives, they began to move.

One after another, they stood up strangely.

They looked at Enel eagerly as if they would rush up again at any time. "Can they be controlled when they are dead?"

Enel's eyes condensed, and he was somewhat doubtful.

He never expected that even after these people were knocked out or died, they still couldn't get rid of the control.

"Hiss..."

With a flash of lightning, he appeared directly outside the palace.

"Rumble-Rumble Fruit, it is worthy of being one of the top abilities in the sea..."

Outside the palace, above a towering tree.

Luke stood proudly with a dark shadow wing fluttering on his back.

On his hand, a large number of dark shadow Strings were intertwined between his five fingers, and were extending from all directions to the palace in front.

"It seems that the Puppet Shadow String is indeed unable to control a Logia devil fruit user!"

Puppet Shadow String.

It is one of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit abilities developed by Luke with his open mind and imagination while borrowing from the moves of String-String Fruit.

It is similar to the Parasite String of String-String Fruit, which can control the actions of others.

But it does not need to touch the target's body, only the target's shadow, and it can easily control the target's actions by manipulating the target's shadow.

Obviously, it can't control the Logia devil fruit users who can directly elementalize themselves.

Such tricks have limited effect.

"A person with special abilities from the sea?"

Looking directly at Luke's figure, Enel laughed in anger: "Yahahaha, I have to say, you really pissed me off..."

"Lightning Flash!"

All of a sudden, Enel's right wrist suddenly turned into dazzling lightning, and he pointed it directly at Luke in front of him.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..."

The amazing stream of lightning came ruthlessly.

But Luke seemed to have predicted it long ago and was not panicked at all.

"Swish..."

He stomped his feet hard, and his body moved sideways at an incredible speed.

He narrowly avoided the stream of lightning.

"Boom..."

In the blink of an eye, the towering trees behind were broken and destroyed continuously.

A large amount of smoke and dust rose to the sky, making people's scalps numb.

"You can actually dodge my attack; you are quite strong!"

Enel raised his eyebrows.

Although a little surprised, he did not panic at all.

Instead, he looked very interested.

"Hiss..."

The next moment, with a flash of lightning.

He appeared not far from Luke and looked directly at him.

"Such strength is much stronger than those bunch of trash..."

Enel looked relaxed, full of arrogance and pride: "Yahahaha, bug, I'll give you a chance... Follow me and become my servant; I'll forgive your previous offense!"

It seemed that he was not threatening but granting.

He thought it was an honor for Luke to follow him.

"Oh?" Luke looked directly at Enel with his face full of playfulness: "This sentence is exactly what I want to say to you, Enel!"

"Yahahaha..."

When Enel heard Luke's words, he couldn't help but laugh in anger, and his eyes became cold: 

"That's a pity!"

"Humble and ignorant blasphemer, repent in despair and fear!" The shining golden staff directly hit the drum behind him: "Thirty Million Volts..."

However, before he finished speaking, Luke suddenly moved. "Shave!"

He stepped hard, and his figure appeared in front of Enel as if he had teleported.

"What!?"

Enel's pupils shrank sharply, and he couldn't believe it.

But he was too careless, and before he could attack, a dark fist mark wrapped with Armament Haki had already hit his abdomen. 

"Bang!!"

Unimaginable pain came. "Bahh..."

Enel's eyes bulged, and he vomited blood.

With a distorted face and expression full of disbelief, he flew out like a cannonball.

Luke kept his fist swinging, with a face calm: "Who is so humble and ignorant now, Big Ears!"
