One Piece – I Am A Different Luffy!

Chapter 478 – The Wano War 18.

[Chapter Size: 1800 Words.]

Third Person POV

New Word.

...

...

The explosion had already affected almost all the islands of the New World while the sky continued to glow with an intense purple hue. However, if Merry Geoise was affected that way from thousands of kilometers away, Wano was the area that should have taken the most impact.

Because Ifrit saw the impact of the explosion coming, with the blinding glow that would blind everyone there, and immediately jumped into the sky while crossing his arms and positioning his wings forward in a defensive stance.

Then, he created a purple flame barrier like a shield and quickly increased its size with the Moa Moa no Mi. The shockwave impact arrived the next moment, while Luffy felt his body being thrown backward as soon as the barrier was affected, trying to penetrate it.

"No!"

With that, Luffy, in his Ifrit form, gritted his teeth while forcing his body forward, not letting the force penetrate his shield made of his own flames, protecting the entire Wano area. If it failed, the entire country would be devastated— even its mountain would be destroyed.

Everyone in Wano looked at the thin flame barrier protecting them while the island trembled because of it. The sky was completely purple, with the explosion still happening above.

In Onigashima, everyone stopped to look at the scene, their eyes wide and mouths slightly agape, speechless. Even the most powerful members present watched in shock.

Zoro, Lami, Yamato, Reiju, Hancock, Kaido, and all the others— no one had ever seen such power before. The only thing preventing Onigashima from vanishing with the wave was Luffy's barrier, as the entire sea surrounding Wano was in turmoil, looking like the end of the world outside the shield.

Lucy, in her Nika form, looked at it, her eyes popping out of her face in a comical expression.

"LUUUUUUUFFFFFFFYYYYYY?!" She exclaimed, staring at her brother's power.

Meanwhile, outside Onigashima, the 800 government ships were all affected, their fate unknown as the shockwave rushed toward them.

Even Blackbeard, despite his confidence, when he saw the explosion appear on the horizon— turning the New World's night into day— simply widened his eyes as a tsunami came for them along with the shockwave.

"Captain!!" His crew members immediately swallowed hard upon seeing that.

The wave spread while Saturn, who was still watching the transmission in a hidden room, remained with the other Gorosei in another chamber along with the kings and queens.

He saw the explosion and immediately opened his eyes wide as everything exploded in pink light, momentarily blinding him. It deeply unsettled him— after all, he had spent months surrounded by purple flames when he was trapped in that comet flying through the planet's orbit. The only thing he had seen back then was the flames consuming his body to the point of never fully recovering, even with his special healing abilities. He had only survived due to his unique condition, and Imu-Sama had rescued him from it.

"This?!"

He barely had time to react as the sea simply exploded, and the filming camera cut off the transmission.

The next moment, the sky lit up while Saturn looked in that direction before the windows shattered from the force of the impact, forcing his eyes open.

"What is this..." His eyes widened at such power.

The kings in the other room were all stunned, their screams of fear and surprise filling the air as they raised their hands to shield themselves from the glass shards.

The Gorosei watched attentively for a while as things finally started to calm down, though the explosion was still visible.

"Who did this to my home?!!!"

"Look at the sky!!"

"What is happening?! Who dares to ruin my windows?! Slaves, clean this up!"

"Who interrupted my dear dinner!!!"

The Tenryuubitos were all in a bad mood in the city, stepping out of their homes, looking up at the sky, exclaiming and cursing. However, the most furious were those who had been injured, appearing with their helmets destroyed while their bodies bled.

"I will kill whoever did this to me! Who caused that explosion? Hurry, agents! Find out who did this!!"

The screams continued for a while as all the government men tried to calm them down or search for answers.

"This is the current power of the Straw Hat captain?!" one of the Elders murmured, watching carefully.

"I..." Another was about to speak, but a voice resonated throughout Merry Geoise, silencing them and everyone else.

"WHO DID THIS…?"

The voice of Imu, immediately heard, alerted all who knew of him, while the kings and queens felt a chill without even knowing to whom that authoritative tone belonged.

"We must leave immediately. Stay here."

The Gorosei immediately ordered the allied kingdom rulers to remain before they vanished, advancing toward the Empty Throne without further explanation. The being who was the true ruler of the world was furious.

"Luffy...?" Makino murmured, looking at the light in the sky, which was finally beginning to fade.

"..."

Coby stood atop one of the Tenryuubito houses, speechless as he gazed at the explosion.

"Luffy..."

Garp muttered as he stared at the ball of flames. There was no doubt—this was an even greater power than the punch he had once clashed with his grandson. But his gaze shifted away from the massive ball of purple fire and back toward the castle, his eyes narrowing.

"That voice..." He murmured darkly.

Elsewhere in the New World, the sky shone as bright as the sun itself as many stared at the purple explosion, their expressions filled with astonishment.

"Shanks, what is that?!" Lucky Roux exclaimed, looking at the sky, while the rest of the crew gathered, their gazes equally stunned.

"Could that be…" Benn Beckman glanced at Shanks with a hint of concern, but Shanks only watched the light with a serious expression.

"It's Luffy…" he murmured, his gaze unwavering.

The Minks who had stayed behind in Zou looked on in surprise, trying to shield themselves from the shockwave while Zunesha kept walking, gazing in that direction.

'The drums of liberation are still playing there… what is happening?'

Without knowing exactly what was transpiring in Wano, he wondered, as no one had spoken to him.

In Dressrosa, Gloriosa stood on the balcony with Luffy's children when the sky suddenly lit up.

"What?!" she exclaimed before sensing what was coming next.

"Children, take cover!!"

She shouted as they all stared at the flames in the sky. The next moment, the shockwave arrived, and she swiftly protected all the children from the flying glass with her staff, while their wide eyes reflected the spectacle before them.

She finally let out a breath of relief, checking to see that no one was hurt. It was at that moment that Rayleigh suddenly appeared, quickly assessing the situation.

"I see that you and the kids are safe," he remarked with a sigh of relief as well.

"Yes… but now… can you tell me what the hell is happening?!" she exclaimed, still stunned.

Rayleigh stepped aside and looked up at the illuminated sky as the light began to fade.

"It's Luffy, somehow," he murmured.

"You're saying this is coming from Wano? Do you not realize how insane that sounds?!" she shouted.

"Daddy! Did Daddy do this?" one of Hancock's daughters murmured.

Rayleigh didn't answer the girl and turned his attention back to Gloriosa.

"Listen… government forces are coming here. We need to prepare for battle. I want you to protect them—some other people will be here to guard them during the conflict. We will be on the front lines."

He spoke before disappearing. Gloriosa nodded, turning back to the children, answering their questions as they watched the sky slowly return to normal.

At the center of all the chaos, there were finally signs that the explosion was coming to an end. The shockwave had finally diminished until it completely disappeared. At last, Luffy began to retract his flame shield as it started to fade away, while the sky gradually calmed again, returning to its dark color with stars shining in a clear, cloudless night.

Little by little, everything was returning to normal. Seeing this, Luffy began to fall toward the ground, while the earth around him still trembled, his body landing in the middle of a completely devastated area—where Bullet had once stood.

Luffy remained silent for a moment as his Ifrit transformation faded, returning to his normal human form. He gazed up at the sky, which appeared somewhat distorted due to the intense temperature variations caused by his flames.

"Did this affect other islands?" Luffy murmured.

He knew very well... His attack had been too devastating. But, in the end, it was enough to defeat his enemy. He had no intention of killing him, but he had been forced to use that technique. He doubted Bullet had survived—his body was likely completely disintegrated by the effect of his Chaos Flames.

"Well... There's nothing to do about it now." He murmured, turning his attention toward all of Wano and sensing with his Haki the damage the battle had caused.

People were still running in fear. Even though they no longer saw any giant beasts, they couldn't be sure if they were truly gone... Or if another explosion might suddenly occur and destroy everything. They remained terrified at the mere possibility.

Luffy let out a sigh. His gaze shifted back to Onigashima before flexing his knees and launching himself into the sky using Geppo, intending to return to the island and check on the situation with the rest of his companions.

"Luffy!"

Lucy couldn't help but cheer upon seeing that her brother had protected the entire country.

Then, her gaze fell upon Kaidou, who was still in his dragon form. She decided to end this once and for all.

"Hey, Kaidou! Our fight isn't over yet!" She suddenly exclaimed as she leaped into the sky above Onigashima.

Kaidou was still staring in shock at the explosion, but then he looked up and saw a massive hand beginning to form. The sky was clear, as the explosion had swept away all the clouds.

Lucy didn't try to hide what she was doing—her hand grew larger and larger until it reached a size equivalent to Onigashima itself, shocking everyone who witnessed it.

Given the situation, Kaidou felt a little lost at that moment. His entire crew had been defeated. He was surrounded by enemies, yet none of them acted against him; they simply watched the fight. That was, until the explosion from Wano had erupted, even drawing his attention.

Kaidou had seen part of Luffy and Kaidou's battle and couldn't help but be impressed by it. Now, however, he had to face his own opponent. He would not run.

With a serious expression, he unleashed his flames. He might lose here, but at the very least, he would fight to the end. And he would fight head-on, without sneak attacks—after all, that was not his way of battling.

Then, he began to generate flames, preparing for his final attack.
