Enel was standing on the top of the tree, far away from Josh, a drop of sweat running down his head. 

He had just seen that light beam, and it was very fast. If not for his Devil Fruit that enhanced his Mantra (Observation Haki), he would have gotten hit by the beam. Enel decided to not underestimate his opponent no longer. 

"Very well, little Devil." Declared Enel as he turned into a lightning bolt, appearing 500 meters high in the air. Enel lifted his hand, turning it into lightning, before striking down. A blue beam descended from the sky and hit Josh's original spot. It was very fast, strong, and had high voltage. 

*Boom* 

After the ground shook, the trees burned, a big hole appeared on the ground. 

Enel looked down. Josh's body wasn't there. Enel, however, was sure that he had hit Josh. But he couldn't feel his presence at all. 

"Fine…" Enel extended his hands on different sides. 

*Tzzz* 

A very gentle spark of electricity ran through the air, barely noticeable, creating an electronic field. 

Meanwhile, Josh. He was behind one tree, 200 meters away from one tree. 

Josh looked at his hand, and he clicked his tongue. "Tsk." 

Josh was now concealing his presence, not moving. His hand had slight burn marks, which had been healed. 

Josh originally wanted to dodge the lightning beam, which was very large. However, even though he moved so fast, Josh got struck by the lightning. After he had persisted, Josh hide behind one tree, and the numbness which he had got was finally lifted above his body. 

'Let's see what's the quest.'

 [Ding: A new gamble: Uneasy path to greater achievement. 

You are using the lightning as a form of training, something impossible to dodge once it's heading to you. Continue battling Enel until you have a breakthrough, not taking the easy way. 

Enel is aware that you may possess a danger to him. He will try his best to take you down and use his speed to his advantage. 

Objective: Defeat Enel in your human form. No weapon or transformation is allowed. 

Rewards: 

- 500 Draw Points

- 1 Mystery Box tier 5 (Legend)

What you are betting on 

- Lightning is very dangerous and can freeze your nervous system and may even blow your mind. You are putting your life in line. 

Are you man enough to take the gamble (Y/N) ] 

Josh thought about the system's offer. 

Now, if Josh turned into his demon form, he would have a way better chance to take Enel. Probably using his lust attribute would allow Josh to take Enel off guard for a second, which is all Josh needs. Also, Josh needs to beat the shit out of Enel to get his fruit. 

However, if Josh went to use Enel as a training buddy, then Josh is really going to face death. 

'I'm really crazy, not to accept this, after all the shits I have done.'

Although there was a faint voice of reason telling Josh not to do it, he couldn't help but lick his lips at the reward. 

The wings vanished, same for the arms and the legs. 

Josh let a sigh and then walked out of his hiding, his Observation Haki was on Enel, who was moving around. 

"Found you!" Came a voice behind Josh. 

Josh, quickly used Shave and started moving at a very high speed around Enel. 

Although Enel is a lightning man, his senses shouldn't be as fast as Josh's. Still, Enel has a very good Observation Haki. 

Enel landed on his feet when he senses the next action of Josh. Smirking, he opened his arms widely, "You are going to see what happened to a little devil when he touches a god." 

Josh appeared from nowhere, and he was planning to land a punch. Enel noticed that there was no light around it, and he decided to make Josh regret the day he was born. After all, touching Enel doesn't come without consequences. 

When Josh's fist contacted his ribs, it sank deeply. Enel felt a huge pain and his eyes almost popped out of his head. 

*Tzzz* 

Sparks of lightning danced around him, tens of millions of voltages. Those sparks danced around Josh's body, making his hair spike up. 

Enel flew backwards, his body crushing many trees. Josh, on the other hand, was tasting what it's like to get hit by a high voltage. His body started shaking, every part of his body was getting shocked, and his internal organs took the damage. What was worse was that his brain went numb temporary and his vision became white. 

After taking two steps back, a couple of seconds passing, Josh was back to his awareness and looked in front of him. Reaching his hand to his chin, Josh swept it and looked at his finger, seeing blood. Josh frowned a bit and licked that blood.

Enel was slowly standing, and his mouth was full of blood. He was around 50 meters away from Josh. It seems that simple punch had done great damage to Enel. 

Enel stared at Josh with wide-opened eyes. "You can touch me!" Enel turned into a lightning bolt, which moved backwards. Instead of heading toward Josh, Enel kept a very safe distance of 500 meters. Josh only half-closed his eyes and stared at him. It seems that, unlike Luffy, Enel is taking him very seriously. Enel was really considering using strategies to take Josh down. Josh smirked. This is a real gamble, and the numbness in his body is confirming it… temporarily. The healing factor of Josh is doing a good job to keep him against one of strongest nature's elements. 

The drums behind Enel started shining. Lightning started taking the shape of a dragon, lizards, and heavenly creatures, all of them heading toward Josh, who doesn't have anything to face lightning, except for flesh and bones. 

"100 Million Volt!" Declared Enel with a loud voice. 

Under the heavy rain, Josh started running, extending his finger toward Enel. Each time his finger shook, a pressed air bullet would fly toward Enel. Thanks to his mantra, Enel could dodge. 

Josh, on the other hand, depended on his Haki. However, his prediction came too late, and he got caught by a lightning dragon, which shook his body and made his brain numb for a second. 

Josh, for two seconds, would forget where he is or who is he. When he regained his awayness, Enel was in front of him, lifting his leg, which shone in blue. That leg moved in a lightning speed, and Josh, who predicted this, found that his reaction speed won't help him now, and he crossed his arms. 

Getting hit by a lightning speed kick, Josh was sent flying across the forest, crossing hundreds of meters before stabilising by hitting a rock. 

Josh, who just sank into a rock, stared forward. 'Come on, Haki.'  Josh was looking at the trail he crossed. He has to say, crossing this distance with lightning speed had done heavy damage on him. Nevertheless, Josh was healed in one second. 

Another thing happened. 

Josh's other constitution started working. The berserk constitution and Josh felt more powerful than ever. As he shook his body slightly, the rock he was in blew up to pieces. 

Enel appeared on the top of the sky, a drop of sweat running down his chin. He jumped high and waved his hand. 

Josh, who was taking this seriously as if his life was on the line, used his will, and an instant, he vanished from his spot, before shooting a compressed air bullet at Enel, who dodged. Enel joined his hands together, opened them, and pointed at Josh. Screaming, Enel shot lightning from each finger, raining bolts on Josh, who started moving hardly. 

The battle started going on and on.
