Chapter 82: Government Agents and Secret Weapons

Chapter 82: Government Agents and Secret Weapons

_________ POV Narration_________

Enel and Garp looked backwards in the direction of the agents, they were stepping on air approaching the ship rather quickly, hidden by the clouds.

"Interesting... What is their plan anyway?" Enel said as he rested his staff on his shoulder.

"Their plan? They obviously plan to try and destroy your ship, which would lead to us falling into the ocean." Francisco said as he tapped the golden ship a few times with one of his nails.

"... I can fly, Garp can use Geppo and you should be able to swim... They must have something up their sleeve." Enel rubbed his chin, looking in the direction of the CP0 agents with a bit of curiosity.

"Bah! I don't care what tricks they can pull! I'll punch them down regardless!" Garp then proceeded to Geppo towards the incoming agents with a feral grin on his face.

Enel observed the situation with his Haki, as he couldn't jump away from the ship without completely halting the engines and causing it to plummet.

Garp stepped into the air with ease, flying further and further away as Enel also stopped the ship, making it circle around as he studied the situation.

The first punch was thrown by Garp as the old marine appeared right in front of the World Government agents in less than a second and delivered a powerful blow.

Two agents scrambled to block it, covering their bodies in Armament Haki completely.

Garp's punch wasn't easy to stop though, their armament seemed to not mean anything to the old marine, as his punch sent them both flying back towards the third agent, who simply dodged.

Enel could tell that one of the two agents, the one that had taken the brunt of Garp's fist, was most likely half-dead already, with his organs rupturing from the sheer force of the old marine's fist.

The other one was a bit luckier, having stood slightly behind his colleague and only received a few broken bones for his trouble.

The third agent, however, was oddly composed. Enel noticed this rather quickly, narrowing his eyes a bit at the strange mask the man was wearing.

The other two had just been wearing regular black suits, their faces not covered by anything besides black sunglasses.

This one wore a fully white formal suit, he also had a white fedora as well as a fully white mask that seemed to also cover his eyes. It was easy to tell that he was a higher-ranking agent just from one glance.

"Heh... Garp is still holding back on them. Classic marine, reluctant to go against the World Government even under these circumstances..." Francisco said as he smiled a bit.

"To be fair, it might just be that he is holding back out of reflex at this point, it's probably been quite some time since he's had to fight someone that can keep up with him..." Enel said as he crossed his arms and tried to remember his spars with Garp.

"I guess he's mellowed out because of his age..." Francisco said as he rested his head in his palm, also observing the situation with his Observation Haki.

Enel also managed to listen in to their conversation though, and the words being said were a bit concerning.

"Vice Admiral Garp... I see you are just as strong as the rumours..." The high-ranking agent spoke out, hopping in place and looking toward Garp without any discernable emotion.

The agent's speech felt almost robotic to Enel...

"Shut it you little brat! The 5 elders better have a good explanation for this stunt!" Garp said as he clenched his fists, even more, his anger was extremely justified.

The old man had lived his entire life in the marines, fighting for justice, only to be treated like a criminal now. It was beyond infuriating.

"I will give you one chance... Return to your cell along with the other prisoner you broke out with..." A few veins appeared on Garp's forehead when he heard the agent's words.

"Really now? And what are you going to do?" Garp immediately used Soru and appeared in front of the agent with his fist cocked backwards and prepared to strike.

The agent's movements were weird at that point, his body seemed to bend around Garp's punch, completely, as the agent kicked out and managed to land a strike on Garp's face...

The old man simply stood there, unmoving. The kick didn't even seem to injure him, only serving to make him angrier.

With a heave, Garp kicked the high-ranking agent in the stomach, sending him flying into the other two behind him.

"You little punks!" Garp then kicked upwards, sending a huge Rankyaku towards them, splitting the clouds once more as the agents scrambled to get away.

Only the higher ranking one managed to dodge perfectly, the one that had been more injured was split in half while the other lost an arm in the process.

The higher ranking agent and the other surviving one both sent a flying slash towards Garp too, the old man simply laughed, using Soru to get out of his way with ease.

Back at the ship, Enel felt something strange, merely raising an eyebrow as he sped up the boat a bit... Old Francisco also immediately perked up, sensing something as well.

But his reaction was a lot different, seemingly knowing what was coming.

"JUMP!"

The old cripple immediately jumped off the ship, Garp and Enel only took a half second to look at each other before both followed him, Enel even abandoning his ship, in a hurry.

Just as the two of them had jumped, A huge purplish laser completely swallowed the sky.

Due to their late reaction, Enel and Garp were both forced to use their Armament Haki to the maximum as they plummeted to the sea.

But not even Francisco was safe from it, as his skin seemed to turn slightly red, as he covered himself with Haki as well.

All three of them were affected by the strange attack, but Enel recovered the fastest, as he was immune to high temperatures.

Enel stopped himself short of hitting the sea, turning into a lightning bolt and raising the waters a bit, creating something akin to a shield of water around the three of them.

He could notice that both Garp and Francisco had received slight burns on their bodies due to that strange attack. And they had both managed to dodge it, the burns were just from being in proximity to it.

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!" Garp shouted as he covered his eyes, Enel seemed to be just as confused as he was.

Francisco seemed to have an idea of what had just happened.

"Enel! Can you sink their ship?! Quickly!" Francisco said as he grabbed onto Garp's coat, as the Vice Admiral proceeded to start using Geppo.

Enel simply nodded, tapping his hand on the energized water around him and raising a tsunami, sending it directly towards the ships that had been pursuing them.

Enel dove into the tsunami himself, turning into a lightning bolt and looking for the source of the strange laser, it wasn't long before he found the canon that was shot towards them.

The cannon itself seemed intact, but the ship appeared to be in shambles, Enel had no clue whether that was due to the backlash of the cannon firing, or his lightning attacks from earlier.

Regardless, the waters rushed in and wrecked apart the fleet of government agents in an instant, reminding them that Enel really wasn't the type of enemy one could fight at sea.

The ships were washed away, pushed to the bottom of the sea as the government agent on them struggled to fly away, unsuccessfully, as Enel in lightning bolt form passed through all of the ones that tried to fly away, paralyzing them and letting them sink like hammers into the energized water.

After a few seconds of that, Enel felt something snap in the large ship that housed the cannon, another foreboding feeling came to him as he quickly zipped out of the tsunami and back towards Garp and Francisco.

Just as he left, a large explosion engulfed that ship, blasting parts of the tsunami away and making Enel a bit confused.

'Was the cannon shot again?... Or maybe it was just the ammunition blowing up?' Enel didn't know exactly, but he didn't feel like sticking around to find out.

Garp was using Geppo to keep himself afloat, and Francisco seemed to be content with just holding onto his cape in order to not drown in the violent waters that Enel's tsunami had created.

"Good job!" Francisco simply showed Enel a thumbs up as he held onto Garp's coat. Much to the frustration of the marine.

"Yeah, good job and all, can you let go of me now?!" The old marine snapped at the 'legendary' pirate that was still shamelessly clutching at his coat.

"And then what? Drown to death?" The old pirate smiled widely when saying that.

"You guys keep bickering... I'll look for some mode of transportation for all three of us." Enel then started searching for the gold that had made up his ship.

After a while, Enel hadn't managed to find any trace of his former golden boat/gauntlets, the cannon shot had most likely pulverized it completely.

'Great... Now to look for something else...'
