Meanwhile Chopper and Usopp were on the Going Merry. "Heavy Point," Chopper said as he transformed into a human-like appearance. His arms looked strong. Chopper picked up a tool box and started hammering.
Usopp also grabbed a hammer and started to get the board together to repair the ship`s hull. "Careful Chopper," Usopp warned. He looked at the broken wood. He paused. Usopp added, "We need to be careful, she needs care."
"Okay," Chopper replied. Chopper got a nail and gently hammered in. Chopper continued to hammer until he saw a large shadow casted on top of him. He looked up to see a purple feathered bird with gigantic wings, on its enormous body. It had red feathers around its neck and its head was white. He had a sharpened beak and his eyes were yellow. The claws underneath its legs were white, with sharp black nails.
"What is that?" Chopper asked. He panicked.
"What is what?" Usopp asked to see a large bird coming towards us. "We are not food," Usopp added.
"Food?" Chopper questioned. He looked at the bird`s beak and panicked. "We are not food," Chopper added.
The bird approached. "There is someone riding it," Usopp noted. Usopp and Chopper saw a man. He had a thin, pointed mustache that split into two parts. On his head there was an aviator hat decorated with wings, and a pair of goggles on the front. He wore an orange fur-lined jacket, with brown swollen sleeves decorated by beige spots and loose matching orange pants held up by a belt. He had a purple scarf around his neck.
The man looked in disgust. "Now offer you life to God Enel," the man stated.
He swung his jousting lance at Usopp. Usopp dodged the lance. "Why are you attacking us?" Usopp shouted.
He swung his lance again and tried to hit Usopp. However Usopp was quick and dodged the attack.
"Who are you?" Chopper's voice trembled with fear as he posed the question, his eyes darting nervously around.
The man turned around and attempted to strike Chopper with his lance. Chopper jumped away and dodged the attack. "That was close," he muttered to himself.
"I am Shura, one of the four Priest severing Enel," Shura stated.
"Enel," Usopp and Chopper said. They both thought that was the name mentioned by Ben.
"You both will be offered a sacrifice to the God Enel," Shura said
Shura then tried to strike Chopper again. Chopper barely dodged out of the way. The are behind him caught on fire. "Hot," Chopper exclaimed.
Usopp pulled his slingshot out and fired it at Shura. Shura jumped out of the way. He aimed his lance towards Usopp this time. A fireblast came from it. Usopp jumped out of the way, narrowly avoiding it.
"That is hot for sure," Usopp yelled. He looked terrified.
Behind him, the fire reached the Going Merry and the ropes caught on fire. Chopper jumped towards it and started to put the fire out.
"Don't hurt Merry," Usopp said. Shura charged Usopp. He punched him in the face. Usopp spat spit out from his mouth. He then followed it up with a kick. Usopp went flying back and hit the ground. He was panting.
Chopper had just extinguished the fire by stomping on it. He looked to see Usopp go flying back. At that moment Shura came towards Chopper and punched him in the face. He followed it up with a kick. Chopper went flying back and hit the mast of the Going Merry.
Usopp got up. He pulled his slingshot back. "Lead Star," Usopp said as he fired a small lead ball bearing at Shura. Shura saw this coming. He moved to dodge the attack. He then moved towards Usopp and pieredc his shoulder with his lance. Usopp screamed in pain.
Usopp quickly pulled his slingshot back. "Gunpowder Star," Usopp said as he fired a highly explosive pellet filled with gunpowder at Shura from point blank. The explosion caught them both. Shura fell to the ground. His body was covered in marks. Usopp also fell to the ground. He looked worse.
"Why you?" Shura said as he got up.
Chopper got his rumble ball out and ate one. "Arm Point," Chopper said as his biceps, triceps, and shoulders became extremely muscular. He charged towards Shura. Shura jumped back. He swung his lance and struck Chopper. Chopper started to bleed, however he caught his lance. It was burning his hooves.
"Usopp," Chopper shouted.
"Triple Gunpowder Star." Usopp said as he pulled his slingshot rapidly three times and fired an explosive pellet. The three pellets wents towards Chopper and Shura.
"Are you insane," Shura said. He was panicking from the sacrificial attack. They both were going to get hit.
However Chopper at the last minute, let go and pushed him back. Shura got hit by the attack. There was a loud explosion and black smoke cloud.
Chopper jumped back towards Usopp. "Did we get him?" Chopper asked.
They heard laughter. As the smoke cleared, the saw Shura was bleeding from the forehead. He looked angry. "You fools," Shura remarked. He smiled.
"You will die," Shura added. He pointed his lance towards them and fired a fireblast.
"Flame Star," Usopp replied as he pulled back on his slingshot and fired a flame pellet. The two attacks clashed and created a large smoke cloud.
Shura got onto his bird and flew towards the smoke and out of it. He smiled and charged towards Usopp. He hit Usopp with the lance. Usopp was flung into the air and he landed in the water below.
"Usopp," Chopper shouted. He got distracted by Usopp going into the air.
"You can join him," Shura added. He pointed the lance towards Chopper. A fireblast exploded from the lance and went towards Chopper. Chopper got hit by the fire and was thrusted off his feet. He went back and fell into the water.
"Two less," Shura remarked. He looked at the Going Merry.
"There must be more," Shura muttered to himself. He wiped the blood from his face with his sleeve.
