Enel staggered to his feet, clearly surprised but far from defeated. His eyes glowed with fury as electricity crackled around his body. "You'll pay for that, mortal!" He disappeared in a flash of light, reappearing behind Coby in an instant. Before Coby could react, Enel sent a powerful bolt of lightning surging through his body, the energy coursing through him with a deafening roar.

Only to see nothing happen to Coby. The lightning surged through his body, crackling harmlessly around him. Coby grinned, unaffected. He had copied Luffy's immunity to lightning back in Logue Town, preparing for this exact scenario. Enel's eyes widened in disbelief, his confidence momentarily shaken.

"How...?" Enel stammered, glaring at Coby, who looked completely unfazed.

Enraged, Enel prepared another attack, but Coby was already on the move. He knew Enel's Mantra made it hard to land a direct hit, so he needed to mix things up. He quickly detached his hand with the Bara Bara Detach Hand technique and launched it with "Gomu Gomu Pistol!" The rubbery hand shot forward, aiming to strike Enel from a new angle.

Enel sensed the attack with his Mantra and dodged again, but this time Coby was ready. As Enel moved to avoid the hand, Coby hurled a water bullet with "Uchimizu!" The water projectile zipped through the air, catching Enel off guard. The shot grazed his arm, drawing a thin line of blood. Enel scowled, realizing Coby was more dangerous than he'd thought.

"Cheap tricks!" Enel spat, summoning a lightning spear and hurling it at Coby. But it had no effect—Coby simply smirked as the spear dissipated upon contact.

Ignoring Enel's growing frustration, Coby used the opportunity to create an opening. He detached his hand again, preparing for his next move. This time, he employed "Super Heavy Rocket Pistol." His hand shot forward, light as a feather, only to gain massive weight at the last second. The sudden shift in weight made the attack difficult to anticipate, and the heavy blow crashed into Enel's shoulder, forcing him back.

Enel grimaced, his arrogance waning as the fight dragged on. "You'll regret that," he growled. Lightning crackled around him, but Coby wasn't fazed. The immunity he copied made Enel's most powerful attacks useless.

Coby pressed his advantage. He needed to keep Enel off-balance, to overwhelm his Mantra. Using "Super Stealth Foot," Coby closed the distance, moving so quickly and lightly that even Enel struggled to keep up. He followed up with another detached strike, aiming low this time, as his hand soared like a bullet toward Enel's midsection.

Enel barely dodged in time, his body twisting away from the impact. But Coby was relentless. He reattached his hand and immediately launched it again with "Super Heavy Sniper Pistol," adjusting the trajectory mid-flight to catch Enel off guard. The crushing weight slammed into Enel's side, sending him reeling.

"You think you can keep dodging forever?" Coby taunted, watching as Enel staggered. He wasn't letting up—he could see the cracks forming in Enel's composure.

Enel snarled, his eyes blazing with fury. He tried to retaliate with another lightning strike, but it fizzled out against Coby's immunity. Desperate, Enel vanished in a flash of light, reappearing high above the battlefield. From there, he unleashed a massive bolt of lightning, aiming to obliterate the ground beneath Coby's feet but how could lightning destroy earth?

Enel forced himself to calm down, his rage barely contained. "Since lightning is useless," he muttered darkly, his golden staff began to melt, reshaping itself into a sharp trident. The deadly weapon gleamed as Enel spun it in his hand, his confidence returning. With Mantra guiding him, Coby wouldn't be able to land a single hit. And with his weapon, Enel could still inflict real damage.

Coby readied himself, gripping his jitte firmly in one hand and mentally preparing for the next round. He knew this fight would only get tougher. Enel wasn't just a Logia user—his Observation Haki made him a dangerous and slippery opponent. The moment Coby let his guard down, Enel would strike.

Without warning, Enel lunged forward, the trident a blur as it aimed directly for Coby's chest. Coby sidestepped, bringing up his jitte to parry the blow. Metal clanged against metal as the trident's sharp tips scraped against the jitte's shaft, sparks flying from the impact. Enel twisted his weapon, trying to wrench it free and strike again, but Coby held his ground, pushing back with all his strength.

Seeing an opening, Coby detached his other hand using Bara Bara Detach Hand and shot it forward with "Gomu Gomu no Pistol!" The rubbery fist stretched out toward Enel, aiming for his midsection. Enel's Mantra flared, and he twisted his body just in time, the punch grazing past him harmlessly.

Enel smirked, driving his trident forward again, this time aiming low at Coby's legs. Coby jumped back, barely avoiding the strike as the sharp tips embedded themselves in the ground. Using the opportunity, Coby unleashed "Uchimizu!" A water bullet shot toward Enel, but the fake god anticipated it, dodging to the side and pulling his weapon free.

"Your tricks won't work," Enel sneered, closing the distance between them once more. He spun his trident in a wide arc, the blade slicing through the air with deadly precision. Coby blocked again with his jitte, but the force behind the attack pushed him back, his feet skidding across the ground.

Coby knew he had to change tactics. He reattached his hand and quickly launched it again, this time with "Super Heavy Rocket Pistol!" The hand shot forward, light as a feather, only to shift to 10,000 kilograms at the last moment. Enel's eyes widened as the massive weight barreled toward him. He managed to deflect it with his trident, but the sheer force of the impact sent him stumbling back.

Coby pressed the advantage, closing in with "Super Stealth Foot." He moved quickly, his footsteps nearly silent as he appeared right in front of Enel, his jitte swinging in a wide arc. Enel barely had time to react, his Mantra guiding him to dodge the strike by a hair's breadth. The jitte whooshed past his face, narrowly missing its mark.

Enel retaliated instantly, driving his trident toward Coby's chest. This time, Coby wasn't fast enough to avoid the blow. The sharp tips sliced through his shirt, drawing a line of blood as they pierced his skin. Coby gritted his teeth, ignoring the pain as he twisted away from the trident, countering with a swift strike from his jitte. The weapon struck Enel's shoulder, the impact forcing the puny god to take a step back.

The two combatants circled each other, both battered but unyielding. Enel's Mantra continued to guide him, allowing him to avoid Coby's more predictable attacks. But Coby wasn't letting up. He knew he had to keep the pressure on, to overwhelm Enel's defenses.

With a burst of speed, Coby launched another "Gomu Gomu no Pistol," aiming high this time. Enel dodged, as expected, but Coby followed up immediately with "Super Heavy Sniper Pistol." The hand rocketed toward Enel, changing direction mid-flight to catch him off guard but at the same time, Enel stabbed his Trident to Coby's mid-section. The crushing weight slammed into Enel's side, sending him crashing into a nearby wall but Coby also felt the stab on his side drawing blood.

Coby cursed in his mind, "Fuck!" The sharp pain from Enel's trident digging into his side was intense, blood trickling down his torso. He stumbled back, one hand gripping his wound while the other clenched his jitte. This fight was brutal, and Enel wasn't going down easily. The god's Mantra kept giving him an edge, allowing him to dodge even the most unpredictable attacks.

Enel staggered up from the rubble, his body battered from the impact of Coby's last attack. Despite his injuries, he sneered, eyes locked on Coby. "You're bleeding, mortal. How long do you think you can keep this up?"

Coby didn't respond with words. There was no point in bantering with someone who had deluded themselves into believing they were a god. Instead, he focused on his next move, thinking through the haze of pain. Enel's Mantra was still making it nearly impossible to land clean hits, but Coby knew he had to find a way to break through.

He charged forward again, using "Super Stealth Foot" to close the distance in an instant. His feet barely touched the ground, his movements a blur as he reappeared in front of Enel. But Enel was ready. The trident flashed out in a vicious arc, aiming to skewer Coby through the chest. Coby twisted his body, barely avoiding the lethal strike. The trident grazed his side, reopening the wound and causing more blood to seep through his torn shirt.

Ignoring the pain, Coby retaliated with a point-blank "Gomu Gomu no Pistol!" His rubberized fist shot forward, aiming directly for Enel's smug face. But once again, Enel's Mantra guided him, and he tilted his head just enough to avoid the blow. The fist whistled past his ear, slamming into the stone wall behind him and shattering it into pieces.

Coby didn't give him time to recover. He immediately detached his other hand using Bara Bara Detach Hand and launched it with "Super Heavy Rocket Pistol!" The detached hand flew at Enel, light and fast, but just before impact, Coby increased its weight to 10,000 kilograms. The sudden shift in weight made it nearly impossible to predict, but Enel's Mantra allowed him to dodge by a hair's breadth, the hand crashing into the ground with a deafening boom.

Enel took advantage of the momentary opening, thrusting his trident forward once more. This time, Coby couldn't dodge in time. The trident pierced his shoulder, the sharp tips digging into flesh and muscle. Coby gritted his teeth, refusing to cry out, even as the pain threatened to overwhelm him. With a grunt of effort, he twisted his body and managed to dislodge the trident, the metal scraping against bone as it was pulled free.

Blood dripped from both of them, staining the ground beneath their feet. Enel's breathing was ragged, his confidence waning as he realized Coby wasn't going down as easily as he'd expected. "Why won't you just die?" Enel snarled, his voice a mixture of frustration and disbelief.
