One Piece: My Infinity Gauntlet!
Chapter 129 - 129 - God's Sanction!

God's War?

McKinley fell to his knees gasping for air, is there any other god in the world?

If not, then how do you explain what just happened?

An unprecedented attack, just a casual strike, the yellow sand that appeared out of nowhere crushed everyone, including him!

It's a suffocating feeling that you can't even resist...

"Don't worry, they've only fainted for now. Take me to your 'god', or just show yourself…

ENEL!"

Boom!!!!

Lightning Flash.... Here it comes!

As Will's words fell, the huge lightning pillar descended straight from the sky on Will's and his group's head with the intent of destruction!

Damn... Am I going to die?

McKinley thought as he recalled that no one had survived God's sanction in years, Yes! No one!

But he was destined to be disappointed, as Will and others appeared unharmed in his field of vision, and there were many strange things on the ground...

When the thick thunderbolt was guided into the ground by lightning rods fixed with sand, Will put away the shadow shields on everyone's heads but did not disperse the Sand Lighting Needles that he created from sand with the same principle of Gaara move, and looked up to the sky.

[TL/n: Sand Lightning Needles]

 If he didn't have a way to deal with the lightning, how could he be so rash as to anger Enel?

To be honest, the speed of the lightning was unimaginable, and when the huge pillar of lightning came down, only Will and Issho reacted at once.

It was a good thing that Will had been on guard against Enel playing this kind of long-range guided strike, otherwise, the best thing he could do was to open a door under everyone's feet and hide in it, after all, no matter how powerful the attack was, it is useless if it couldn't hit them who were hiding in another space.

"Thunder in a clear sky? How could this be?"

"It was so close, so close, I almost got struck by lightning!"

"What's this? A lightning rod made of sand?"

"There can't really be a 'God', can there?"

Nami and the others were patting their chests in fear, as they remembered how terrifying that thunder earlier was!

And Will, after making sure that Enel didn't continue to attack them, said loudly to the sky, "Stop playing this little trick and wait for me to come to you, or for you to come to me yourself!"

"God-Enel!"

No one answered, nor did a huge lightning pillar fall as they expected. Recognizing it, Will dispersed the sand needle and turned his head to look at McKinley whose worldview was about to collapse.

This was the first time he had ever seen someone who could stand unharmed under God's sanction and still stand well before him after openly provoking a 'God'!

Is he also a god?

"Come on, take us to the Upper Yard, don't make your 'gods' wait impatiently."

This time McKinley did not refuse, as he chose to lead the way in silence, just as the other side said, this is a war that belongs to the 'gods', not a mortal like him can interfere.

As for whether they would be punished by God for taking them to Upper Yard, he couldn't care less, because even without him, the other party would still be able to replace it, and the location of the Upper Yard was no secret, so it was better for the war of 'God' not to affect civilians!

On the way, everyone was a bit silent, and only Nami, Robin and Kirby, who knew some of his secrets, guessed that the so-called 'God' was probably a devil fruit user, and the ability should be related to lightning, so Will's purpose is self-evident.

Robin hadn't forgotten her own shock when she saw how Will used Crocodile Sand Devil Fruit after defeating him.

However, Issho and the others, who joined later, didn't understand Will's motive at all, and it seemed that their captain had planned to do it long before coming here.

"By the way, it seems that I haven't told you the story about this 'god' on Sky Island.

Will thought back to what he knew about the story of Enel and tried to tell it as briefly and concisely as possible. When Issho heard that the so-called 'god' had destroyed his hometown with his own hands, defeated the god of the original Sky Island, forcibly occupied the Sky Island, and became the new 'god' after that, his brow furrowed ...

A ruler with such a cruel character does not deserve his own justice!

He never thought that Will would lie to himself, because a lie is a lie after all, and one day it will be dismantled, and he only needed to ask a few more people to replace out the truth.

Just...

"What is the captain's purpose of coming to Sky Island? Is it to get rid of this cruel 'god' and give the people here a happier and more peaceful life?"

Will steps halt, then says in a deep voice, "No, it's for 'profit'!"

As much as he would like to do these things under the banner of justice, it's the 'profit' that really drives him to do it!

If Enel wasn't a Devil Fruit user, would he have come all the way here to liberate this Sky island?

After asking himself the question, Will's answer was: No!

The world has too many people in dire straits waiting to be rescued by someone else, who is neither a saviour nor a villain. He can give some help if it is in line with his own interests and strength. But if it's going to endanger his companions or His life, then no need to answer.

Maybe everything will be improved after he has completely governed the world.

Everyone was stunned by Will's straightforward answer, while Nami looked at his 'pretend not to care' face and laughed lightly in relief...

This was the case when he was in Cocoyashi Village, and it was the same when he was in Alabasta, and now he is on Sky island, it's still the same...

Even though he said he did it for the sake of profit, he did save herself and the entire village of Cocoyashi and also helped Alabasta to solve the conspiracy of Crocodile, so that the people there could resume their normal life.

And that's enough, no matter how kind people are, even they have their limits!

The saying of the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, it's all shit!

Can't you live the life you want because you have the ability to do so? You have to protect the world, save people, and fight for any stranger?

It seems that sacrificing oneself for the sake of others is what those with power must experience in the eyes of 'others'!

A little selfishness on the part of the hero is met with condemnation, while the bad guy might just save a stranger on a whim one day and be applauded around the world!

Is this fair?

The path is chosen by oneself, not because someone told you to do it, the willingness to be a fearless hero deserves the admiration of others, and the unwillingness to do so should be understood rather than questioned and denigrated!

So Will didn't want to be a bad guy, nor he wanted to become a hero that did things he didn't want to do!

Issho seemed to understand what Will wanted to say, and at the same time, understood Will's inner thoughts better.

His Captain is really different…..
