One Piece: Reborn as Enel

_________ POV Narration_________

Enel didn't bother to stop Luffy at all, he simply yawned as he sat down on the edge of the execution platform.

If Luffy had failed his 'Conqueror's Haki' reveal event, Enel would've interfered without a second thought.

He was waiting for the last second, if the blades touched Ace's skin, then Enel would've pushed the executioners away without hesitation.

But it wasn't needed apparently, Garp also did his thing and let Luffy 'knock him out' as the young man rushed to save his brother.

Luffy also noticed Enel, but he didn't try to attack the Rear Admiral, only shouting "Hello, long ears!" As he ran past him.

Enel simply smiled a bit as he let out another yawn.

"Ace! I'm here to save you!" Luffy quickly took out the key that Hancock had given him.

That was when Enel noticed something strange... Kizaru, unlike he was supposed to do in the show, aimed his laser, not at the key, but directly at Luffy's head.

Using Future Sight, Enel was able to just barely move the tip of his blackened staff in front of that yellow laser, parting it in many sides as it broke some of the buildings in the distance.

Enel masked that as him simply stretching, but plenty of people had managed to catch that movement, including Whitebeard from below.

The old pirate just smirked at that 'That Luffy brat really has a talent for making friends...'

"Enel!? What is the meaning of this!?" Sengoku shouted as he quickly started growing larger, finally turning into a golden giant as Enel just stared with a wry smile.

"What do you mean boss? I'm just stretching here, did something happen?" Enel simply said as he looked up at the Fleet Admiral without any shame in his gaze.

Luffy had completely missed what had happened, but Ace was able to see it rather clearly.

'So he's on our side?!... No, I guess he's just Luffy's friend, otherwise, he wouldn't have attacked pops...' Ace thought to himself as Luffy was quick to try and turn the key to his seastone cuffs.

"Do you really think I'd just let you do that?!" Sengoku said to the side as he completely turned into a giant golden human. Enel narrowed his eyes a bit, as he jumped a bit off the platform.

Sengoku's palm released a shockwave, one that Luffy was miraculously able to block with a balloon. Well, he didn't really block it, he just resisted it for long enough for their footing to completely collapse.

Enel hopped in the air on one leg, as he looked at the situation with crossed arms. Kizaru hadn't attempted any other similar attack on Luffy, but Enel could tell that the Admiral was rather displeased with Enel's involvement.

Enel blinked a few times, as a flying blue bird rushed towards him. It was none other than Marco.

Enel simply scowled, both of his legs hopped on the air, as he blasted himself forwards and met the flying phoenix head-on, staff met claws as flames started spreading out around them.

"Thank you, Enel-yoi..." Marco whispered a bit, as he then pushed Enel back a bit using his talons, and proceeded to fly away and save a few of his crewmates from Kizaru.

Enel just let him off, as he realized that Marco most likely thought Enel was still trying to remain as a marine.

'What an oddball...' The Rear Admiral thought to himself as he looked back at Ace and Luffy.

At this point, Ace had already been freed, he and Luffy were throwing around marines as they were quickly retreating.

Enel raised an eyebrow, as he finally noticed the odd looks Kizaru was giving him. Eventually, he started hopping toward the two retreating pirate brothers.

Whitebeard also gave the following order next.

"EVERYONE! PROTECT ACE AND LUFFY! WE ARE RETREATING!" The old man hadn't received anywhere near as many injuries as he had in the original.

Akainu hadn't been able to take him by surprise much, without the Squard's betrayal which would've severely injured Whitebeard, the situation was really stacked against the magma-spitting admiral...

Kizaru had tried aiding him as much as possible, but Marco had him covered on that front.

Aokiji was also assisting, but he wasn't a great team fighter for Akainu, as the other Admiral's magma was constantly getting in the way of his ice. And his ice was also being crushed by Whitebeard's tremors.

Whitebeard had still received quite a few injuries, including a magma-fueled punch to the chest. But it had been a trade-off, as Akainu was squashed into the ground in order to land that one...

Aokiji was quick to try and stop Ace and Luffy, but Ace's fire seemed to overwhelm his ice, which meant he was unable to do much to stop their retreat...

So, he quickly switched roles with Akainu, Aokiji quickly taking to fighting Whitebeard, as Akainu chased after the last remaining blood relative of Gol D. Roger...

The two of them clashed, which led to Ace being quickly overwhelmed. "My magma can easily burn your fire!" Enel could hear Akainu gloat a bit as he managed to slightly injure and push back the fire-creating pirate.

Enel could hear all of the captains in Whitebeard's crew shouting in desperation for Ace to run. Marco had been trapped with seastone cuffs, so he was unable to rush there and stop Akainu.

And, unfortunately, the young and courageous Ace was being riled on by Akainu's insults. It wouldn't have mattered much if Akainu had just insulted Ace, but he had also insulted Whitebeard...

Ace ignored his crewmates, he also ignored his father's words to retreat. He respected him far too much to allow him to be insulted by anyone.

But how exactly was Ace supposed to be able to win against Akainu?

He was once again pushed back, this time Luffy also got involved, trying to punch the Admiral and make him back off a bit.

At that point, Luffy also got slightly burnt, which sent him tumbling towards the ground in pain, as he clutched as his burnt arm.

Enel raised an eyebrow at that, as he wondered why Luffy's fire immunity wasn't coming into play...

Akainu then towered over him, his fist cocked backwards, trying to kill the young fledgeling pirate.

That was when Ace got in front of him, Enel could basically hear the scared shouts of Ace's crewmates.

Ace was determined, he wasn't about to let his young brother die right in front of him, not while he could still do something to stop it... Even if that something meant giving his life away.

Just as Akainu's fist was about to pierce Ace, Ace gritted his teeth as he looked at Luffy in front of him.

That was also when Enel appeared right in between Ace and Luffy, his staff instantly tuning into a blackened half-sphere that covered Ace.

The young pirate was shocked, as Enel had technically just teleported in his face, but he didn't have the time to react much verbally, as he was quickly pulled by a metallic tendril and thrown back into Luffy, sending the two of them tumbling a bit.

Enel's sphere was quickly melted through, as he pulled back his metals and reformed them in his gauntleted arms recreating his staff in an instant.

"ENEL!? What stunt are you trying to pull?!" Akainu was beyond pissed off when he realised what had happened. He had been a millimetre away from killing Ace, from completing his mission, before Enel had interfered.

"Akainu... I don't mean this in a bad way... But I hardly see any reason why either of these kids should die by your hand today..." Enel's words weren't anywhere near as loud, still, all of the people that heard them could only recoil in shock.

Some had already seen Enel protect Luffy, but that could've been interpreted as a mistake, no one knew that Kizaru was aiming for Luffy's head anyway.

So it wasn't anywhere near as major as him jumping in front of Akainu. This time though, he had well and truly done it.

"Enel... Are you betraying the Marines... IN ORDER TO SAVE TWO DIRTY CRIMINALS?!" Akainu's anger could clearly be felt, as his fist lunged forwards.

His punch crashed into the ground with the force of a volcanic eruption, Enel had managed to jump away without much issue, but he could see the ground being split open and magma started to rise.

"Dirty criminals? I agree that most pirates deserve that moniker, but these two haven't done much to earn it... I'm sick and tired of this."

Akainu raised an eyebrow at Enel's words.

"They gained their bounties rightfully! They slighted the World Government time and time again!" Akainu didn't want to give up on his fellow marine so easily, but Enel wasn't budging.

"Heh... We both know that bounties have nothing to do with crimes, Akainu... It's all about what the government feels."

Akainu's anger manifested again "Inugami Guren!" With his fist cocked back, he shot a wave of magma shaped like a fanged doghead towards Enel, who had just landed on the ground.

Enel simply pointed his arm towards the incoming attack.

"El Thor!" His hand instantly turned into a huge laser that completely dwarfed the incoming attack.

Akainu simply saw a flash of light, after which he was sent flying by the lightning blast as the ground around him was burnt to a crisp.

The laser continued forwards, passing above the heads of many marines and hitting the marine headquarters, creating an explosion that sent tremors throughout the island.

"So cool!" Luffy said to the side, which made Enel just stare at him for a bit.

That display managed to somewhat halt the aggression, as everyone was currently staring at the unfolding disaster in front of them.

"L-lightning?!" One of the marines said as he took a step back. Many of the marines had similar reactions.

Many didn't know whether this was a good thing or not, but since Enel had just blasted Akainu further inland, most surmised that this wasn't a good thing at all.

"ENEL!" Sengoku was the first to shout, as he dashed towards the traitorous marine.

His palm extended towards him, releasing a large shockwave that pushed back most of the marines nearby.

Enel simply turned into a bolt of lightning and travelled up Sengoku's arm, paralyzing it in the process.

"Rather stormy today, wouldn't you say so?" Enel said as he crouched down on Sengoku's shoulder and looked at the clouds in wonder.

"Why are you doing this!?!" Sengoku said as he tried to calm down a bit, he still didn't want to consider Enel as an enemy...

"I can't let you kill my friend, referring to Luffy, by the way. If we were executing some bigshot pirate, then I wouldn't care, but this is just a bunch of kids." Enel said as he jumped a few times and headed for the clouds.

That was when another admiral decided to intervene.

"Yasakani no Magatama!"(Comma Jewel of Eight Shaku) Countless rays of light headed for Enel, as Kizaru finally decided to get involved in that mess.

As a bolt of lightning, Enel managed to dance around the light rays, as he also started receiving more and more attacks.

"Ice Block: Partisan..." Enel's body then twirled to the side, as dozens of ice spears were sent toward him. Kuzan also decided to try and contribute to the fight.

At this point, the Whitebeard Pirates were starting to retreat, so no one was holding back the Admirals anymore.

Enel simply swung his staff, creating a dome around him as all of the spears were blocked.

Enel frowned a bit as he felt his shield freeze over, but that didn't last long, as he sent a current of electricity through it, heating it up and melting all of the accumulated ice.

"Ryusei Kazan!"(Meteor Volcano) Akainu had also managed to fly back from the other side of the island. His fists were pointed at the sky as he shot countless giant magma fists toward Enel.

At this point, most of the lower-ranking marines were running away, same for the weaker pirates.

Enel didn't falter at all in the face of the attacking Admirals though.

"Sango..."(Lightning Flash)

Enel raised an arm to the skies, out of it parted countless lightning bolts, striking down on Marineford and intercepting all of the attacks that were coming his way.

Countless explosions spread and left behind only scorched earth. Enel did his best to avoid hitting the marines below, but it was difficult with all of the Admirals attacking him...

Enel was currently using the techniques that the old Enel had already trained, he wanted to see just how well they held up.

Thankfully, they seemed to be rather effective, as most of the strikes that had been heading towards him were shot down.

Pandemonium spread as more and more people realized that they were being attacked by yet another fruit that was capable of destroying islands.

"As if Whitebeard wasn't enough!" One of the marines below said as he ran as far as he could.

Fear and confusion were the most common thing among the marine ranks now, their morale was extremely low, and the only thing keeping the fight going was their pride.

After that clash, the situation had calmed down a bit, as Enel floated in the skies and looked down at Marineford with narrowed eyes.

Akainu was still recovering, as Enel's lightning had injured him a bit, Sengoku had been struck by a few stray bolts of lightning, but he was just paralyzed for a bit, not seriously injured by any stretch of the imagination.

Kizaru and Kuzan were forced to break their attention as some of the captains of Whitebeard's crew started attacking them in order to try and cover their crewmate's retreat.

It was now that the situation took a... strange turn.

"It seems we are a bit late to the party!" A boisterous voice was heard from the side.
