One Piece – I Am A Different Luffy!

Chapter 289 – Storm is Coming 01.

[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]
Third Person POV

Sabaody Archipelago, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

The ship began to sink as the entire marine ecosystem filled all sides, with the Black Pearl descending further every moment.

"This is incredible!" Chopper shouted excitedly.

"So these are the roots of the Sabaody trees..." Robin said in admiration.

"So my home is down here...?" Shirahoshi murmured, looking at the scene before her.

"Yes, princess..." Hachi muttered, familiar with the region.

While everyone marveled, Nami noticed Luffy silently appreciating the marine ecosystem as well. "Luffy, do you know if they will succeed before they find us?" Nami asked.

"Yes, the information I got was from Kuma. He has all the government communications, and he provided some very valuable intel..." Luffy commented.

"I hope this will be necessary. We'll have to deal with an even more enraged government," she complained, but Luffy shrugged.

"Well, our arrival at the war should be impactful, so it will be necessary," Luffy smiled.

The ship continued descending after that, reaching 2,000 meters below the surface. The crew kept admiring the fish and everything they encountered in that place.

"What a funny fish!" Yamato laughed at the shapes of the underwater creatures.

"Shirahoshi." Luffy called the mermaid who was looking off the side of the deck.

"Yes, Luffy-sama." She looked at him.

"I want you to summon the Sea Kings. It's time for them to pull us to Impeldown," Luffy said, watching Nami manage the direction.

"Alright, I'll try!" Shirahoshi said with some determination, then flew to the top of the deck.

"Sea Kings-sama! I need your help to carry our ship!" she shouted with all her might, her hands cupped around her mouth to create an echo.

The sea fell silent as the entire crew waited, trying to detect any change in the darkness ahead, but no response seemed to come.

"Our ruler is calling us!" Suddenly, a voice emerged from the depths of the ocean. The crew seemed oblivious to it, as if they hadn't heard it, except for two—Shirahoshi, who was surprised, and Luffy, whose eyes widened.

"Is this the voice of all things...?" Luffy was quite surprised by this. He had this dormant ability within him but had never managed to control it, even when he used it on that poneglyph in East Blue.

"Are you alright... Husband?" Alvida asked, noticing Luffy's strange behavior, although there was no visible change in the sea.

"I am... it's just..." Luffy gave up trying to explain and looked at Shirahoshi with a confused yet astonished expression.

"Did you hear that, Shira?" he asked, while the crew remained puzzled by his words, having heard nothing.

"Yes! They responded... I am the ruler...?" Shirahoshi was surprised by this.

"Yes... You are Poseidon, of course you rule all the seas," Luffy said with a smile to the girl, who nodded. He turned his attention back to the crew, still not understanding what was happening. "The Sea Kings are coming. Let's put the chains out," Luffy instructed.

"Right." Usopp began to get the chains on the deck with Hachi, Chopper in his muscular form, and even Yamato, throwing them outside the coating.

A moment later, shadows began approaching the ship, with eyes opening as large as 50 times the size of the Black Pearl.

"We're going to die!" Nami and Vivi hugged each other in fear as Usopp and Chopper ran scared across the deck. The others frowned as more and more creatures of the same size appeared.

"Hey, Luffy, I hope this plan of yours doesn't kill us!" Lami immediately complained.

"Shira, explain to them." Luffy turned his attention back to the mermaid.

"Yes, Luffy-sama!" she said, focusing on the immense Sea Kings. She didn't feel fear but rather a certain familiarity, a sense of belonging.

"Hello, Sea Kings-sama! We need you to push our ship there!" She pointed while holding the Eternal Pose to Impeldown.

The monster remained silent for a moment, then opened its mouth as several bubbles of air emerged. "YES!" it said, forcing Luffy and Shirahoshi to cover their ears from the nearby sound.

"DON'T SHOUT!" Luffy exclaimed with his Moa Moa no Mi amplifying the sound.

"DON'T SHOUT!" His crew shouted back at him with grimaces, as they all had to cover their ears from Luffy's yell.

"Luffy, who are you talking to?" Nojiko asked, confused, while it seemed that only Shirahoshi and Luffy could hear something none of them could.

"That guy is talking. But only Shira and I can hear him," Luffy commented.

"Only you two can hear?" Robin approached Luffy, curious.

"It's hard to explain, but the good thing is he agreed to take us to Impeldown, so don't worry about them eating us," Luffy said to calm the more frightened members.

"Can he hear us?" The Sea Kings were surprised by this.

"This happened almost 20 years ago..." Another spoke calmly.

"In any case... Let's obey our ruler." The Sea King said, and they all began to approach the ship, biting the tiny chains with their immense mouths that could fit hundreds of such ships.

As soon as they grabbed the chains, without saying much, they started swimming in the direction Shirahoshi requested.

"Now it won't take long," Luffy said with satisfaction, as the crew looked on in admiration while the Black Pearl was surrounded by immense creatures and began to disappear into the darkness of the sea.

Meanwhile, kilometers above the sea, the golden ship began to round the Red Line at a much higher altitude, passing it unnoticed behind the clouds.

"Woof!" Chouchou was playing on the deck, trying to bite the clouds.

"The mutt is just wasting time..." Enel mocked, sitting in his chair in the middle of the deck.

"Grrr!" Chouchou growled at Enel while Hugo crossed his arms, looking down.

"Somewhere over there is Mary Geoise..." he said, trying to locate the sacred city, but the view was limited during the day with all those clouds.

"We could pass by and destroy the city where the false gods reside," Enel suddenly suggested.

"As much as I'd love to do that and want to find that Tenryuubito who killed my family, it's not the time yet," Hugo spoke, though with a tone of frustration.

"Tsk. You overestimate the mortals," Enel said arrogantly.

"And you underestimate them. Do you think we have any chance of facing the power of that city? Don't forget that in that place, they control the entire world," Hugo spoke as if Enel were an idiot.

"..." Enel didn't respond.

"Anyway, let's catch some fish. Soon, we'll meet those people before finding the captain and the others," Hugo commented.

The ship continued, with Enel still seated, Chouchou trying to bite the clouds, and Hugo continuing to look off the side of the deck, until they finally passed the Red Line and began to descend, entering the most dangerous sea in the world.

"The captain gave us this Eternal Pose, so head in this direction," Hugo said, tossing the compass ball with the direction while Enel caught it easily and followed the indicated path.

They continued at a high altitude, with no one below them able to guess a ship was sailing among the clouds.

It was at night that they spotted a large glow coming from the sea in that direction. This was the Treasure Ship, the user of the Gold Gold Fruit. "We shouldn't get too close... The captain said if he senses our ship, it could bring us trouble," Hugo warned.

"..." Enel didn't respond as he stopped the ship some distance in the air. "What do we do now...?" he asked.

"We'll wait. According to Luffy, a ship with those bastards will be leaving the place, escorted directly to Mary Geoise," Hugo said, knowing from their captain that they would be returning to the sacred city to witness the war.

The ship continued floating for the rest of the night as they rested. It was in the morning that a group of ships left that place—a ship surrounded by six Marine and World Government ships. Hugo stood up, looking at them with interest.

"They are our targets then..." Enel sensed with his Observation Haki.

"Yes..." Hugo looked at the decorated ship, reminiscent of the one they encountered at the end of East Blue, symbolizing wealth and power, as that group liked to flaunt their status.

"We will follow them from afar and attack as soon as they are in the middle of the ocean..." Hugo said as Chouchou woke up, ready to fight as well.

Enel's ship continued following them, while all the ships were heading to Mary Geoise, unaware that they were being watched.

"I will act. It's time for them to know the power of a true God!" Enel said as Hugo and Chouchou rolled their eyes.

Enel then shot down from his ship, running in the air as a lightning bolt.

"What is that? A thunderbolt?!" The government members around the main ship were surprised, hearing thunder descending from the sky, while a member in white with a mask on the main ship frowned. He was from CP0, in charge of that ship's security.

"Call for reinforcements, we are under attack!" he immediately shouted when he sensed the power of that lightning bolt and who was in it. Enel of the Straw Hat Pirates, known for killing and beating Tenryuubitos.

However, from the lightning, an almost invisible static explosion occurred, while the agents grabbed the Den Den Mushi, they started to fall limply. "The Den Den Mushi are not working!!!" the man shouted as everyone grew scared.

"What is happening!" An arrogant voice demanded from the deck, asking what was going on in his astronaut-like suit.

"This is bad..." The CP0 agent saw the situation getting worse.

As Enel descended with lightning, Hugo and Chouchou followed behind, though they couldn't match the speed of the Logia user.

The battle had just begun in that area with the static field, while the world was preparing to watch the battle, Marineford was in full swing preparing for the fight.

"How is he?" Sengoku asked an officer.

"He is still in a bad mood, but he is adapting," he replied.

"I had a conversation with him, so he will help in this war with a chance for revenge," Sengoku said. "How are the others?" he continued to question.

"Dracule Mihawk is coming... Bartholomew Kuma is finishing his surgery with Vegapunk. Hancock is being escorted by Momonga here, Jinbei is being sent to Impel Down... those already here are Donquixote Doflamingo, Gecko Moria, and Marshall D. Teach...." The officer informed the status of each of the Shichibukai.

"I see... Unfortunately, we had some issues with Jinbei since he refused to participate in this war, so we sent him to Impel Down..." Sengoku murmured, he had been sending many people to Impel Down lately.

"You may go." He dismissed the officers as they left the room, his gaze returning to the port, where dozens of ships were approaching every moment, and others were leaving Marineford, carrying the families of the marines.

He looked for a while when the Den Den Mushi began to ring at that moment. It was none other than the Five Elders. "Let's see what reinforcements you will give us for this war..." Sengoku commented as he approached, it was time to have this kind of conversation with the Gorosei.
