The Strongest Lunarian in One Piece

"El—"

From afar, Hajrudin's booming voice rang out.

The towering, intimidating figure raised his arms high and laughed heartily. "Gahaha! Everything's ready on our side!"

Beside him stood not only giants like Witt and Sanjuan Wolf but also several other members of the Giant race. Even near Lily stood a new figure—a giant girl around Gerd's age.

"Whoosh—"

The tall, imposing giant girl suddenly turned half her body into a billowing cloud, racing toward El and the others at incredible speed.

"Hehe, El, the Cloud-Cloud Fruit's ability is so convenient!"

"Mamamama, Helen, you're mastering your Logia abilities more and more!" Linlin chuckled.

Mitchellia Helen, a young female giant from a certain West Blue giant village, was roughly the same age as Hajrudin. She had once planned to join the Navy but hadn't acted on it yet when relations between the Giants and the World Government soured due to the exposure of Carmel's conspiracies.

About half a month ago, when El personally visited the West Blue Giant nation to recruit warriors, Helen—who had been inspired by El's grand vision during the Totto Land Kingdom's founding broadcast—volunteered to join. As a reward, El granted her the Logia-type Cloud-Cloud Fruit.

As a giant, Helen could effortlessly emulate various "clouds" from Sky Island. Using the Cloud-Cloud Fruit, she could easily generate massive thunderclouds, essentially wielding the power of lightning—a disaster even by giant standards. For ordinary humans, she was a walking catastrophe.

"Exactly, it's incredible! Thank you so much, El!"

"The power you've given us is overwhelming!"

The ground trembled as towering giants approached, excitement evident on their faces. Among them were not just warriors from Elbaf but also giants from the West Blue and beyond. Many were former Navy giants who had resigned in outrage after the Elders of the Giants, Mountain Beard and Waterfall Beard, exposed the World Government and Carmel's schemes.

Convinced by El's impassioned words—and enticed by Devil Fruits—they had joined the Totto Land Kingdom. What's more, El offered wages and benefits at least twice what the Navy had provided. In their Navy days, they had never experienced such favorable treatment.

"As long as you're satisfied!" El smiled warmly.

The Giants' natural advantages were undeniable. With their massive stature and overwhelming strength, Devil Fruit powers became exponentially more effective in their hands. Given the current lack of powerful allies and the limited number of promising recruits from the Dream House, El had been exceedingly generous—perhaps even bleeding resources.

Not only had Saul been granted the Stone-Stone Fruit and Helen the Cloud-Cloud Fruit, but former Navy Vice Admirals like Lonz and Lacroix were also gifted with Ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruits. While they were no match for the Ancient Giant Little Oars, their newfound powers elevated their strength significantly. Against Marine Vice Admirals, they could now fight with ease.

"El, I heard we're about to go to war with the World Government?"

A young giant with orange hair grinned, flashing his teeth as he asked.

"Yohohoho, we can't wait!" Another giant warrior, radiating fighting spirit, laughed loudly.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it'll likely be in the next couple of days." El stood with his arms crossed, smiling. "Stay vigilant, everyone!"

"Ohhh—"

"Leave it to us!"

"We won't let you down, El!"

The giant warriors roared in unison, their morale soaring.

"With Lily's help, I've made significant progress!" Helen, smiling brightly, added, "I've also gotten much better at using the Cloud-Cloud Fruit's powers."

Over the past couple of weeks, thanks to Lily's Pile-Pile Fruit ability and combined training, Helen had experienced remarkable growth. Even El, Linlin, and other senior members took time to personally guide her. She had even begun to unlock Conqueror's Haki, though not fully mastered. Her abilities had advanced at an astonishing pace, as if rocketing toward new heights.

"Hehe, of course! With me, Lily, personally involved, the results speak for themselves!" Puffing out her chest proudly, Lily grinned smugly.

"You're so full of yourself!" El rapped her lightly on the head.

For this battle, the Fallen Angel Pirates had carefully selected only their strongest and most experienced members to participate. Warriors like Sea Tiger Jien, Griffin Moss, and Flea Man Rock were all granted permission to fight. However, support personnel like Nef and Dr. Kureha were kept off the battlefield. To ensure maximum safety, Gerd, who was pregnant, had been sent to Elbaf.

Only the strongest Homies, such as Thundercloud Zeus, Sun Prometheus, and Umibōzu, remained to assist in the upcoming battle. The recent influx of giant warriors and their development as Devil Fruit users meant Gerd's presence wasn't as crucial.

"RUMBLE!"

As evening fell, the ground on Cake Island shook violently, rumbling like thunder. From the floating fortress Atlantis, docked along the coast, Cake Island's residents and members of the Fallen Angel Pirates watched in awe. The majestic royal palace, grand and magnificent, began to "move" visibly.

Using his Stone-Stone Fruit abilities, the giant warrior Saul was transporting the entire massive structure from the Totto Land Kingdom to the floating fortress Atlantis.

"Unbelievable…"

"Can a human even do this?"

"Even a palace large enough for giants is being moved so easily!"

On Atlantis, onlookers like Nef, Baka, Rufe, and Sak stood slack-jawed in amazement. Even Dr. Kureha, despite her vast experience, couldn't help but click her tongue in astonishment.

"Mamamama, El dear, once things settle down, should we have Saul use his Stone-Stone Fruit to move some of the islands in the Calm Belt here?" Linlin grinned excitedly.

"With Saul's abilities, he should be able to move smaller islands if given enough time," El confirmed with a nod.

For El, Saul's value wasn't just in combat—though he was no slouch—but in the extraordinary utility of his Devil Fruit powers. In the future, Saul could potentially use his abilities to reshape the seafloor, creating massive bridges that would connect the scattered islands of the Totto Land Sea into one continuous landmass. Alternatively, Saul could excavate deeply buried minerals from resource islands with ease, making even the hardest-to-reach deposits accessible for development.
