Chapter 295: The Rumble-Rumble Fruit Awakens

Stab it!

Upon hearing Mu Chong's question, Enel slowly raised his right hand, then activated his Rumble-Rumble Fruit power, with streaks of sky-blue lightning swirling around his right hand.

"Ok?"

The instant the lightning appeared, Mu Chong clearly sensed the difference in this power. Compared to before, the lightning released by Enel now possessed a more aggressive and tearing quality.

"Captain! My Thunder has awakened!"

Sensing Mu Chong's doubt, Enel slowly raised his eyes, his gaze flashing with unwavering confidence.

As Enel finished speaking, the sky-blue lightning that had been surrounding his right hand suddenly spread outwards, instantly filling the entire room.

Stab it!

"Hehehe! What surprising news! Enel! I never expected that you would be the first person on the Liberty to awaken? And a Logia type at that!"

Enel's words shocked Mu Chong, and the sensation of the sky-blue lightning surrounding his body upon contact with it left him speechless with astonishment.

Thunder, one of the most aggressive and destructive natural elements, should normally be a place of explosive power where it exists, but at this moment, Mu Chong felt a trace of warmth.

"Hehehe! Ever since you, Captain, told me about the electromagnetic conversion method on Mount Targon, I have been developing the Rumble-Rumble Fruit all the time. Unlike before when I only focused on the attack method, this time I am more focused on feeling the essence of lightning!"

Enel didn't dispel the lightning that filled the room as he spoke; it was as if it didn't require his control and had no effect on him whatsoever.

Mu Chong stared intently at Enel, listening to his narration without interrupting. Although his expression remained calm and composed, his heart was brimming with excitement.

Enel's awakening of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit means that the Freedom now possesses a powerful figure comparable to an Admiral.

"Then, in the battle a few days ago, I followed your advice and did not actively release my abilities in the clouds. Instead, I completely relied on the thunderclouds created by Slad!"

"As bolts of lightning drilled into my body, I slowly relinquished control of my body, retaining only my self-awareness. Then I discovered that, under the influence of the lightning in the thundercloud, my body shattered and completely merged into the thundercloud!"

"It was a very strange feeling. At that moment, I felt as if I was detached from the situation. I could clearly see bolts of lightning wandering in the thunderclouds, and those bolts of lightning were me, and I was those bolts of lightning!"

"That strange state lasted for a long time. After Slad strengthened the thunderclouds again, countless bolts of lightning began to approach me. That's right, they approached the broken bolts of lightning until they condensed into my shape. It was thousands upon thousands of me, me made of lightning!"

"Then, I tried to establish contact with them, and then I saw thousands of thundermen approaching me. Almost instantly, my original body reappeared in the thunderclouds created by Slad!"

"At that moment, I had a very strange feeling. The stagnation I had when I was controlling the Rumble-Rumble Fruit disappeared at that instant!"

Enel spoke at length, describing entirely the feeling of awakening the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, but he didn't explain the method or process of awakening it, because even Enel himself didn't know why it had awakened.

"Hehehe! Let's have a fight, Enel?"

Sitting next to him, Mu Chong listened quietly to what Enel had to say, and without the slightest hesitation, stood up from the sofa.

"Hmm? Hahahaha! That's exactly what I was thinking, Captain!"

Upon hearing Mu Chong's words, Enel's eyes lit up, and he swiftly and cleanly flew away.

"Awakening? The Rumble-Rumble Fruit awakened? In the original story, this guy went to the moon in his spaceship, but it didn't say that he had developed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to the point of awakening!"

Mu Chong slowly walked towards the window of the room, recalling his memories of his past life as he went.

"Hehehe! Why think so much? No matter how that guy awakens, he's destined to be a shipwright on the Liberty for life!"

boom!

Mu Chong stood by the window, looking up at the cloud-filled night sky. A slight smile played on his lips. Then, he pushed off with his feet, his body leaping into the air and disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, in front of the palace of the Kingdom of Soderle, located at the westernmost edge of the town, Didak was fighting a group of royal soldiers.

boom!

"You bastard! I didn't kill you during the day, and now you dare to cause trouble at the palace! Are you really not afraid of death?"

A soldier who appeared to be a captain kicked the already weakened Didac to the ground, his spear pointing directly at Didac's chest.

Beside the two men, besides the dozen or so soldiers standing there, several other soldiers lay sprawled on the ground, groaning in pain. Their injuries didn't appear to be severe, but the wounds were gruesome.

"Cough cough cough... They killed my whole family... cough... I'll kill, kill, kill too..."

Didac was severely beaten; he even coughed up blood with every word he spoke. But perhaps by some mysterious force, he repeatedly rose and stormed the palace.

"Damn it! Captain! Kill him!"

"Yeah! Let's just kill them! They've kept us up so late!"

"But...but! What about His Majesty the King?"

Seeing Didak still struggling to get up, the surrounding soldiers all said to kill him on the spot, but the words of one soldier made them hesitate again.

"Hmph! If you ask me, kill him now! If His Majesty the King investigates...didn't a group of unfamiliar faces come to the town during the day?"

Just as the soldiers hesitated, someone in the crowd suddenly came up with an idea that caught everyone's attention, including the soldier captain who was pointing his spear at Didac.

"Hehehe! You damned monkey, you've finally come up with an idea that satisfies me! Come on, give this guy the final blow!"

Upon hearing the soldier's idea, the captain's face immediately lit up with a smile. He then called the soldier out and tossed him the spear.

"Captain! This..."

The soldier who took the spear glanced at Didak, who was slowly rising, then looked hesitantly at the captain.

"Damn it! What nonsense are you spouting? You came up with the idea, so of course you should do it! Don't worry, after we catch those people and make them scapegoats, I'll give you all the treasure we seize until you're satisfied!"

The captain took a few steps back, arms crossed, his face showing a hint of anger as he spoke, but his eyes were full of amusement.

"Really? Captain..."

boom!

Just as the soldiers were rejoicing at their captain's words, Didak, who had risen from the ground, suddenly unleashed astonishing speed, charging towards the soldier wielding the spear and unexpectedly tackling him to the ground.

*Crack!*

"what!!!"

Didac's obese body pressed down on the soldier, and then, like a hungry wolf, he opened his mouth and bit down on the soldier's neck.

"Captain... Captain... Help me..."

The sudden attack and the sharp pain in his neck made the soldier, who had been tackled, forget to fight back; he only cared about shouting for help.

"Damn it! You're such a piece of trash!"
