Why Me?!

13:07, 30 March 2021

Luffy kicked Enel right in the stomach, making the man crumble to the floor. I grinned widely. That blond has probably never had anyone actually hit him before since he's made of lightning. I could hear the little girl on the ground gasping in amazement. Enel finally got up, jumping away from his one natural opposite.

"What the hell.. are you?" Long lobes huffed.

Luffy just stayed in his place and said plainly, "I'm Luffy. I'm a pirate and a rubber person."

"Rubber?" he hummed at the reply. The blond then looked to me, "Woman, what is rubber?" I didn't really need to answer him, considering Luffy was already charging at him. The captain's luck had ended, however, because Enel had gotten over his initial shock.

"I get it.. Rubber doesn't exist in the White-White Sea so no one has been able to fight back," Nami muttered beside me.

Luffy almost hit us with one of his attacks but I ducked down along with Nami. Should I do something? At this rate, I can only get in the way.. I'm definitely not rubber, and I'm currently unable to use my hands. Enel started his counter attack and eventually had Luffy pinned against the gold plated walls of the ark with his golden staff.

"Don't push your luck. Lightning can do much more than just electric shocks. Once I know it won't work, I'll fight accordingly," Enel told him, a smirk on his cocky face.

Luffy went to grab the staff and kick him, yelling, "Physical attacks won't work on me, either!" but the man teleported away before the attack could land. I'm pretty sure he meant blunt force wouldn't work. "Damnit. So this guy has the ability that allows him to read my moves, too!"

The tall man started mumbling about Luffy's powers, then shouted, "Grom.. Pudding!" Electricity traveled through his staff and it slowly started shifting into a trident. Wrong god. "I don't have time to play with the likes of you! Consider it lightning that has taken shape!" When Luffy jumped to avoid the attack, Enel started laughing, "As I thought! Slashing attacks are your Achilles heel."

"Yea." 

"DON'T TELL HIM THAT!" Nami scolded him. I facepalmed as Luffy completely ignored her and tried to attack the lightning man. The attack was dodged since Enel started traveling through the gold wall behind him and attacked the man in midair, trying to pierce him with his golden trident.

I don't think it actually hit him since Luffy was holding onto the staff of the weapon, then he started to shriek about how hot it was, causing a laugh to erupt from Enel. That amusement was shortlived, though, because the blond got gomu gomu no speared into the wooden panels of the ark. I cheered until Enel sprouted from the broken floor, catching Luffy's oncoming fists and smashing the ebony haired male to the floor. Long lobes climbed out of the flooring with an irritated look and walked away while spinning around his now blunt staff.

"Sight seeing on a sky island.. what a bad time to come, Blue Sea people," he bantered, amused. "I'm God, so I'll do everything as I please. I will create a world according to my desires. I won't let some clueless Blue Sea brat that suddenly showed up get in my way!" He started walking up the steps to his throne-like chair. "Now, how about we watch the fall of this nation together?" Nami stared at him in disbelief as he placed his hands on two golden rods on either side of him, "Max 200 Million Volt Vaari!" The whole ark started shaking as lightning traveled through all of the metals. "Behold! The ark that will take me to the land without end, the Endless Vearth...Maxim!"

Nami crumbled to the ground and I could see Luffy finally get out of his hole in the floor. The orange head started rambling while I smashed any falling rocks that would hit her. "What're we going to do Luffy?!" she shrieked. Looked towards him, also not knowing how we would get out of this situation considering the guy uses mantra, is as fast as lightning, uses lightning, and has gold everywhere for his every needed use.

The male threw his strawhat to her and didn't look our way. "Don't get so rattled," he hummed. "You're a friend of the future King of Pirates.. don't show such a pitiful face." His face held no smile to it, showing his seriousness. I grinned.

"Well you certainly sound like the future King of Pirates right now," I commented.

He nodded to me and made his way over to the center of the boat where Enel was. "The Pirate King? And what land is this king ruler of?" the blond asked, walking forward towards Luffy.

"He is the king of the greatest sea in the world!" he stated.

Enel smirked, "What a laughable title. Now, I believe the sky is waiting for the conclusion of our fight." 

He started talking about a "Deathpiea" plan, and then a bunch of black clouds sprouted from the top of the ship. By now we were pretty much out of the ground, the ship was just a little stuck on the edges of the hole. Enel showcased the purpose of the thundercloud emitting from the boat by making a thunderbolt strike the Skypiea island. Luffy got mad, of course, and they started to fight again. That's when I had an idea. When Luffy ducked down from an attack, I ran and tried to move the golden ball in front of Enel's oncoming trident strike. Sadly, he stopped right before it hit the ball.

"You think just because I'm fighting that I won't be able to see your next move since I'm focused on someone else? You underestimate me, Goddess," Enel breathed out in amusement before swiftly kicking me to the side. I put up the golden sphere to take most of the impact but I still went sliding across the deck. I knew that woulda happened.

"(Y/N)!" Luffy shouted, about to run to me, but he was stopped as Enel started to attack again.

"I'm fine Luffy!" I called to him. 

Nami ran to me and helped me get up considering it's a little harder when you have no access to hands. "Are you sure you're fine? You seem exhuasted," the orange head asked me, genuinely concerned.

I huffed and nodded my head, " Yea. This damn golden weight is really tiring me out though. I've been holding it up all this time and even attacking with it. It's still so damn heavy, and it feels like it's gotten heavier as time goes on," I explained. She shook her head at me.

"What is it with all of this goddess talk anyway? What's going on with that?" she questioned. I groaned and sat up completely, slamming my head onto the golden sphere.

"Oh boy, if only I knew the answer to that, Nami," I responded. She raised a brow but ultimately decided that she would just brush it off, just like I've been doing for the past how many chapters now.

I looked up and Luffy shouted something about gomu gomu no airhead. I stifled a laugh while Nami yelled asked him what in the hell he was doing. Surprisingly, though, the ebony haired male just started dodging the trident strikes with no problems all of a sudden. Nami was staring in shock and I was just looking at the weird expression on her captain's face. He jumped away from Enel and started panting, looking at the blond. "Since I'm being an airhead, I can't do any attacks.." he mumbled.

"What are you, stupid?!" Nami screeched.

I fell back and laughed, "Yea, he actually is."

"You're not helping, (y/n)!"

"If I could somehow grab hold of him I wouldn't be at a disadvantage.." Luffy thought aloud. I would offer to grab Enel but the guy could literally enter my body if he wanted to with his lightning powers. I shivered at the thought. Disgusting. Luffy started talking again, "Oh yea! Gomu Gomu Octopus!" he inflated his head and then let all the air out with his limbs becoming really long.

"NO! ENOUGH WITH THE WEIRD IDEAS!" the woman beside me protested. I wiped a tear away from all the laughing. Geez, this was supposed to be a serious fight, what's all this?

Luffy ran over to the throne that Enel was sitting in earlier and started punching it, having his fists ricochet off of it so he could hit him without the issue of mantra. Enel went flying when the pirate hit him with the infamous bazooka move. When Luffy went in for another attack, Enel kind of just stared at him. Probably because he couldn't think of a counter attack and he couldn't teleport because he was injured and in shock.

"Gomu gomu no.. RIFLE!" the captain shouted, smashing his fist into Enel's face.

"Woohoo!" I cheered. Luffy grinned at me and swiped his thumb across his nose proudly.

Nami started talking but was interrupted when Enel started making a speech about how he's the almighty god. I honestly couldn't give a single shit. Since the ship was in the air now, I tried to smash the lightning generators that were clearly out in the open. Of course, nothing goes my way though. Enel appeared before me and glared down onto me.

"I can only take so much defiance, (y/n)," he grunted shortly before grabbing onto my arm and proceeding to electrify me. I didn't know whether to activate my devil fruit power, but I did know that cooking all my organs in my regular form probably wasn't the way to go. And I think last time I was only out for about ten minutes or so. And so, I activated my power and blacked out.

~~~

I groaned and sat up, seeing a sphere of gold at least three times the size of mine be thrown over the side of the ship. My hearing finally kicked in and I could hear Enel and Luffy yelling at each other about how there are much stronger people on the Blue Sea. I didn't really compute what the hell was happening in my mind until a hand wrapped around my arm and I was falling to the ground.

"Huh..?" I breathed out. I looked at the hand on my forearm and saw that it was Luffy's. And we were both falling to our deaths. Or at least I was. "Huh..? HUUUUHHH?!?! LUFFY WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS?! AM I YOUR LAST RESORT LIFELINE OR SOMETHING?!"

"Shishishi.. I dunno?" he laughed out. I swam through the air and hit him across the head with my golden weapon. "OUCH! WHY?!"

"BECAUSE YOU'RE AN IDIOT, THAT'S WHY!" I screeched in irritation. His hand didn't let go of my arm so I just rolled my self up in his rubber arm, using multiple layers.

"NOW WHAT'RE YOU DOING?!"

"I'm preparing for impact!" I yelled back, less angry and now just trying to talk over the wind. All of a sudden, a huge pillar of lightning struck next to us, and I could hear Nami yelling for Aisa. I really do hope she's fine. Anyway, back to me and my problems. I left my arm out so the gold would smash against the ground for one last attempt to smash it. I activated my devil fruit and we finally hit the ground. "Ugh.." I rubbed my head and sat up, looking below me and seeing I was sitting on Luffy's chest while his head was stuck under some rocks. He must have unraveled his arm and pulled me in on accident. "You need some help?" I asked.

"YES YES GET OFF AND HELP ME!" he shouted through the rubble on top of him. I chuckled and punched the rocks trapping his head.

Wait.. punched? I looked at my hands and flexed them. I lifted them and sighed, not feeling all of the weight I've been having to put up with this whole time. "I'm free!" I cheered, clapping my hands together and doing a little dance until I heard someone clear their throat. I looked to the side and saw that Aisa was standing there, deadpanning at me. "What do you want? I'm celebrating. This is why I don't like kids," I grumbled.

I heard Luffy laughing at me and he finally got up, "You're funny, (y/n)! Even if you hit me on the way down!" he chirped. He then picked up the giant sphere of gold, trying to pull it off of his arm. "Damnit! I can't get this gold kintama off!" he grunted in frustration.

"Don't call it that!" Aisa scolded, while I chuckled. (Kintama=slang for testicles in japanese. The sub just says "golden ball" so her scolding him doesn't make any sense in the sub, but since I watch Gintama and they make a joke about how if Gintoki's name was Kintoki, the show's name wouldn't be allowed, I know the meaning, and I needed to do Luffy's play on words right. It doesn't make sense in English. Wow long explanation. Also, Gintama is gold)

"Eh? (y/n), how did you get your kintama off?" he asked tooking at my hands.

"I said stop!!"

"I stuck it out when we landed. Plus mine was much smaller than yours and I've been trying to break it for the past like hour or two," I replied.

"You're just going to ignore he called your golden ball a kintama?!"

"Oooohhhh. Can you help break mine?" he questioned again. I shrugged and formed my hand into a pickaxe and tried to stab at it. Nope. I tried some more, and I made a few dents but it would take too long. I gave him a sorry and he just shook his head, "It's alright. Anyway, let's get outta here!"

We all ran out of the cave and through the underground city from earlier, with Luffy smashing into every building and corner that he could. Aisa kept telling him to stop, but he didn't care at all. I was holding Sky Knight's horse-bird because Aisa intended to drag it over her shoulder by it's beak, and I was not having that. We finally got to the middle of the city, where Nami said everyone had fallen, and there was no one there.

Luffy was panting heavily, "Huh?! Robin and the others are gone! Zoro and Chopper.. Where the heck have they gone?!"

"I bet they've already gone up Giant Jack.." she muttered, referring to the huge beanstock. Luffy and I started heading off, but Aisa stopped us by asking, ".. Are the sky islands.. going to disappear?!" she turned around with tears falling from her face.
