LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 60: 060 Surrender, Water Seven
"Stop! Stop fighting, I have something to say!"
Enel, who was beaten into a pig's head, barely conscious, spoke weakly.
"Explain," Lynch demanded.
"Blue Sea guy, there aren't many people like me."
"There are many," Lynch replied. "You might not be among the strongest."
This is reflected in the motto of the ark built by Enel.
In reality, Enel has always wanted to see the outside world.
After Lynch defeated him, recruiting Enel wasn't difficult, considering his instinct for survival.
The challenge is that Enel has been deceiving himself by staying in Sky Island for years. To recruit him, Lynch must first get rid of his arrogance.
"Alright, I'll surrender," Enel said through gritted teeth.
"But I have two conditions."
"Explain,"
"First, you cannot restrict my personal freedom. Even though I surrender, I am not a slave. You are at most my boss."
"Alright, and the second condition?"
"You must take care of my food," Enel said, sitting up with a serious expression.
"Hahahaha, of course."
Lynch laughed and patted Enel on the shoulder.
The wounds all over his body were affected, and Enel grinned in pain.
"You couldn't have been gentler when you were fighting me just now..."
"That's okay, how can I make you surrender if I don't use more force?"
Lynch has basically made a judgment on Enel's strength.
His physical skills are average, which makes sense. In Sky Island, no one could hit Enel, so there was no need for him to develop physical skills.
Enel's Observation Haki is top-notch.
However, he doesn't have both Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.
His Devil Fruit ability is also top-level.
Overall, his strength is at the level of an elite Vice Admiral.
If Enel masters Armament Haki and improves his physical skills, his strength could reach the level of a quasi-Admiral, surpassing all Vice Admirals.
This isn't underestimating Enel; it's recognizing his potential.
Compared to the current three Admirals, Enel is still very young.
He still has plenty of time to improve.
If Enel can catch up, then the three Admirals are too weak.
"Now that you've surrendered, I'll stay on Sky Island for a week to teach you Armament Haki."
"By the way, your ability called the Heart Network is actually an advanced version of Observation Haki."
A week later
Lynch left Enel in charge of Sky Island while he worked on building the Ark Maxim.
There are also two other ships: the Ark Maxim, which is powered by electricity to fly.
If Enel can drive it, he can also pilot the ship.
A flying ship would be pretty cool, don't you think?
When the time comes, Enel will attack enemies one by one, scaring them to death.
Sky Island has quickly become Lynch's personal base.
...
Meanwhile, on the other side.
On a small island in East Blue.
In the Ishin Dojo.
Zoro looked panicked as he hurriedly opened the dojo door.
"Teacher, Teacher! Kuina fell down the stairs and fell unconscious!"
"What?!"
Koshiro immediately stood up. "Take me there quickly."
After arriving at the rear warehouse, after some inspections, Koshiro breathed a sigh of relief and felt strange at the same time.
It turned out that she just fainted, nothing serious.
But what kind of stairs could knock Kuina unconscious, especially after she ate a Zoan fruit model: Peacock?
They were just wooden stairs.
Even if Kuina had fallen from a five-story height and hit her head on a rock, it wouldn't be so serious.
An ordinary person, even without training, wouldn't be able to die from such a fall on these stairs.
Suddenly, Koshiro remembered something and broke into a cold sweat.
If Kuina could be hurt this badly after eating the Zoan Devil Fruit, what if she hadn't eaten it?
It reminded him of the day Lynch gave her the Devil Fruit.
Koshiro had a strange feeling, as if Lynch had known this would happen. Was it just his imagination?
Regardless, Lynch had saved Kuina's life, and she would need to thank him in the future.
Looking back at the strange staircase where Kuina fell, Koshiro issued a stern order: "Burn it for me!"
In this way, because of Lynch's butterfly effect, another person in this world had his tragic fate changed.
The gears of the world have entered a moment of its turning point.
This way.
Lynch had just acquired an Admiral like Enel, and immediately headed to the Capital of Seven Waters non-stop.
Pluton, one of the top three ancient weapons, was bound to be a great asset.
Lynch hadn't taken it before because he knew the blueprint was secure and he couldn't escape with it.
Secondly, he was also too weak, and obtaining Pluton's plans would have been more of a curse than a blessing.
Now, he felt it was the right time to take Pluton and make the drawings.
A few days later
In the Capital of Seven Waters
Lynch took advantage of the darkness to locate Tom the Fishman, who had been sentenced to death and was under strict surveillance by the World Government.
"Good evening, Mr. Tom."
Lynch, having changed his appearance, appeared behind Tom like a ghost.
Tom stopped his work, turned around slowly, and said calmly:
"What do you want from me? If I send signal, dozens of World Government agents will rush in here at any moment."
"Really? Don't you think Mr. Tom should be more concerned about me killing Franky and Iceberg?" Lynch said with a hint of a joke.
Realizing that the visitor had already investigated him clearly, the fish-man Tom clenched his fist and suddenly opened it with a punch.
"Fishman Karate! samegawara seiken!"
Tom attacked, but Lynch blocked it with a single finger.
"Mr. Tom, if you make too much noise, you'll attract the World Government, which is bad for both of us," Lynch said.
"What exactly do you want?"
Seeing his attack easily blocked, Tom the Fishman realized the visitor was no ordinary person and decided to stop resisting.
"It's simple. Hand over Pluton's production drawings, and I'll leave immediately without causing any trouble."
Tom's eyes widened in shock. "What are you talking about? I don't know anything about Pluton's production drawings."
"Don't play dumb. If I'm here asking for it, I've already investigated everything," Lynch said calmly.
Tom might be a good man, but kindness doesn't control soldiers, and righteousness doesn't control wealth.
Lynch is not only a Marine but also a king, and his actions and decisions affect countless lives.
In the future, he will inevitably have to confront the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
If he fails, everyone close to him, including his citizens, could die.
Lynch doesn't mind becoming a villain, even if it means harming some good people, as long as he can protect those who believe in him.
"I really don't know what you're talking about. You must have the wrong person,"
Fishman Tom said, then turned away from Lynch.
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you." Lynch threatened:
"Either give me the Pluton blueprint now, or I'll kill Franky and Iceberg. Your choice."
Lynch knew very well that no matter how hard he tortured Tom the fishman, he wouldn't get the Pluton blueprints from him.
The only way to get the information is by threatening Tom through the people around him.
That's his only weakness.
