Sky Island, Skypiea
Conis was still unaware that she had already been targeted by the Four Priests. Having narrowly escaped Enel's Divine Judgment, she joyfully led Chiga to Gan Fall, the former God of Skypiea.
Gan Fall, with his white beard and clad in armor, looked at Conis kindly before turning his gaze to Chiga, who stood calmly beside her.
At just a glance, Gan Fall felt an overwhelming sense of pressure emanating from Chiga. Especially after seeing the strange ripple pattern in his eyes—the Rinnegan—Gan Fall was overcome by an almost instinctual urge to kneel. This pressure reminded him of something… no, someone.
Roger.
A thin layer of sweat appeared on Gan Fall's brow. He quickly composed himself and greeted Chiga cautiously.
"Greetings. I am Gan Fall. May I ask your name?"
Chiga gave a small nod and replied with a polite smile, "Uchiha Chiga."
Uchiha? What an unusual surname. Gan Fall ran through his memories but found nothing. Well, perhaps he was someone new from the Blue Sea. Since Enel had taken control, Gan Fall hadn't kept up with current events below.
"Were you brought here by the Knock-Up Stream, or…?"
"I came by myself," Chiga answered plainly.
At this, Conis stepped forward eagerly. "Grandpa Gan Fall, Brother Chiga flew up here on his own! Isn't that amazing? He doesn't even have wings, but he can fly freely in the air!"
Though she hadn't known him for long, Conis had taken a liking to Chiga. After all, he had saved her life, and his calm, gentle nature left a strong impression. She had started calling him "Brother Chiga" without hesitation.
Chiga also found the winged girl endearing, reminding him of the two little ones from Cocoyasi Village. He gently patted her head and said to Gan Fall,
"I understand your situation. Don't worry. I'll handle Enel."
Gan Fall's expression didn't brighten. He didn't doubt Chiga's words—he could tell the man was powerful—but he knew nothing came without a price. Even if Chiga defeated Enel… what then? Would he take Enel's place and become the new God of Skypiea?
Gan Fall had no desire to reclaim the title. Over time, the Skypieans and the Shandians had started to put aside their long-held grudges. If Enel were gone, Gan Fall hoped to unify the island, share the land, and finally bring peace.
But Chiga was neither Skypiean nor Shandian. Would he allow that peace to happen?
Conis, unaware of Gan Fall's concerns, assumed he was worried about Enel hearing them. She stepped forward again.
"Grandpa Gan Fall, it's okay! Brother Chiga blocked Divine Judgment with a giant skeleton warrior and saved me!"
"That's not what I—"
"Blue Sea dweller who dares to trespass into Skypiea, come out! God has deemed you guilty!"
The arrogant voice echoed through the area. Gan Fall and Conis both froze—it was the voice of the Four Priests.
Chiga looked toward the doorway. With a wave of his hand and a flicker of power, four figures were instantly dragged into the room and slammed to the ground at his feet.
The Four Priests lay there, groaning in humiliation and pain. Chiga's voice was calm but sharp.
"Who were you calling guilty just now? Me?"
Ohm, the strongest of the Four Priests, struggled to rise. Glaring at Chiga with seething fury, he shouted, "How dare you attack us! Do you know the punishment for this?!"
"Oh?" Chiga raised an eyebrow. "Go ahead. Enlighten me."
"You've insulted God, and now you've assaulted his priests. You should be begging for death! In fact, you and that girl behind you should commit suicide before God strikes you down!"
"Is that all?"
"Of course not! Before dying, you must also pay the fine for illegal entry!"
Chiga laughed. Loudly. The kind of laugh that made even Ohm hesitate.
"You really think you're untouchable," Chiga muttered, amusement fading into coldness.
Enraged, Ohm drew his white Iron Cloud sword, the blade extending toward Chiga like a spear.
"Die, Blue Sea trash!"
The blade shot forward—but Chiga casually raised his hand and flicked it. The Iron Cloud shattered like glass, the fragments clattering to the floor.
"Nani!?"
Ohm stared in disbelief. That wasn't dodging. That was… complete annihilation. What was this man arm made of!?
Chiga calmly shook off the remaining fragments, as though brushing off dust. He hadn't even used Haki—his raw strength had been enough.
The other three priests took a step back. If Ohm had been defeated that easily, what chance did they have?
Chiga tilted his head.
"You're all too noisy. Offer up your hearts."
A moment later, all four priests clutched their chests in agony.
Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!
In a gruesome instant, four still-beating hearts floated from their chests into the air, dripping with blood.
Chiga hadn't even used ROOM. This was a simple application of his Gravity Fruit ability—deadly, direct, and terrifying.
"My… heart… give it… back…"
The priests reached out feebly, eyes losing focus. One by one, they collapsed, twitching briefly before lying still.
Chiga looked down at the corpses, then said without turning, "ROOM."
A massive ROOM space unfolded, covering all of Skypiea. Though he sensed nothing abnormal, he turned to Gan Fall.
"Where's Enel?"
Gan Fall, still in shock, pointed silently toward the Upper Yard. With a glance, Chiga sent the four bodies away with Shambles—a warning to Enel.
"Wow! Brother Chiga, you're amazing! Those guys totally deserved it!" Conis cheered.
She wasn't disturbed by the violence. If anything, she was thrilled the priests who terrorized her home were finally dead.
Chiga smiled slightly at her praise, then vanished into thin air.

My boy's getting the Goro Goro no mi, Wait hollup.
What if he did the same thing he did with Shiki? Anyone wants that?.
