Chapter 281 Shadow Fruit, Power of Shadow

Ziger came to the territory of Moriah, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Thriller Bark.

Moriah is now the shame of the Shichibukai. If he continues to serve as the Shichibukai after losing to Luffy, he will obviously lower the status of the Shichibukai.

And Ziger came this time to clean up the mess. In the original book, it was Bear who came, but Bear came to "wipe Moria's ass", while Ziger came to "wipe" Moria directly.

Of course, Moria is not so proud as to ask Jiger to do it himself. Jiger's real goal is Moria's Shadow Fruit.

The original power of the Blood-Blood Fruit in his right arm has been completely integrated and absorbed by the Vampire Fruit, which means that he can obtain a new Devil Fruit again.

The reason why he was interested in Moria's Shadow-Shadow Fruit was that in Jiger's opinion, shadow and darkness had a great similarity, and shadow and darkness were inseparable. The Shadow-Shadow Fruit might very well contain the part of the original power that the Dark-Dark Fruit lacked.

After putting the speedboat into the Dark Bible, Zigg jumped directly into the pirate ship called the Terrible Barque.

Although it is called a pirate ship, it is actually more like an island, and a "gloomy" island at that. It is covered by thick fog on all sides and is dark all year round.

Due to the previous actions of the Straw Hat Pirates, there were very few zombies here, and Zigg came to the castle where Moria lived just by strolling around.

Inside the castle, Moria was lying on the sofa with his thick neck wrapped in bandages. Sitting on the sofa on the side were his two subordinates, Absalom and Hogback, who were also wrapped in bandages.

When the door was broken open by Jiger, Moria and the other two jumped up from the sofa in shock.

Moria shouted loudly,

"who!?"

ta ta ta ......

A light but gradually louder sound of footsteps was heard, and a figure covered in a cloak came into the sight of Moria and the other two.

When Moria saw the face of the person coming, his face changed and he said in surprise,

"Admiral Black Dragon!?"

Jiger looked up at Moria and said calmly,

"Gekko Moriah, you have lost your qualifications as a Shichibukai. I am here to take your life."

"What?! Are you kidding me?"

Moria took a few steps back and almost tripped over the sofa behind him. Jiger raised his feet and walked towards him step by step. Every step he took was accompanied by a dull sound, like a huge death knell.

The voice echoed in the hall, carrying an indescribable pressure that made Moria's heart tremble.

A fine layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He swallowed his saliva and gritted his teeth.

"Black Dragon, don't go too far!"

Moriah's character is still very tough, at least in the original work, he has never begged for mercy.

Absalom slowly retreated to Moria's side and whispered,

"Lord Moria, let's escape..."

Hogbag was so scared that he collapsed on the sofa, his body shaking uncontrollably. From his perspective, Jiger, who was walking towards him, looked like the god of death.

The air in the hall seemed to be frozen. In this extremely depressing atmosphere, Moriah could no longer bear it. The shadow under his feet suddenly lengthened and turned into a shadow knife with a gecko-shaped front end, stabbing straight at Jiger.

"Horned Knife Shadow!!!"

Clang!

Jiger had no intention of dodging and let the tip of the knife pierce his body, making a sound like metal hitting each other.

Seeing this scene, Moria's pupils shrank and he exclaimed,

"How is that possible? Did you use Haki?"

However, in reality, Jiger did not activate even a bit of Armament Haki for defense.

For him who possesses the abilities of a mythical beast and the bloodline of the Lunaria clan, this kind of attack cannot break his defense at all even if he stands still.

Jiger looked down at the black knife tip against his chest, raised his right hand emitting black energy and pressed it down.

The next second, the "horn knife shadow" condensed by Moriah, which was as strong as steel, softened and was instantly absorbed by Ziger in half. Moriah tried his best to take back a little bit, because this was his own shadow.

Moriah, who had lost most of his shadow, immediately wilted. It was the first time for him, a user of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, to experience the feeling of missing a shadow.

This also made him extremely shocked and he looked incredulous. In the battle for the shadow, or his own shadow, he actually lost to Jiger!

Jiger looked at his pitch-black right hand, the corners of his mouth gradually rising. He was now more and more certain that the Shadow Fruit was the fruit he was looking for.

As the controller of darkness, shadows should also be within his control. He had tried to control shadows when developing the Dark-Dark Fruit, but did not make any progress. He could not establish a "connection" with the shadows.

Until this time, when Moriah materialized his own shadow, Zigg suddenly sensed this "connection" and was able to directly and forcibly take away Moriah's shadow.

Thinking of this, Jiger raised his head and a bright golden light flashed in his eyes.

Moria's heart was filled with alarm and he shouted,

"Absalom!"

Absalom immediately understood Moriah's meaning, and immediately reached out and pressed his hand on Moriah's body, activating the ability of the transparent fruit to hide both his own figure and Moriah's figure.

When they disappeared, only Jig and Hogback were left in the hall.

Hogbak wanted to escape, but his body was stiff on the sofa as if it was filled with lead. Zig didn't even look at this guy. He swung out a bolt of lightning and directly blasted the necrophile Hogbak into ashes.

Then, Jiger's figure flashed and appeared at the gate in an instant. The air in front of him obviously fluctuated.

puff!

The sound of flesh tearing was heard, and Moriah and Absalom appeared immediately. Absalom stared with his eyes wide open, and a lot of blood foam gushed out of his mouth.

Zig violently pulled his arm away from Absalom's heart, and the latter's eyes turned white and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Moriah saw Absalom, who had lost his voice, and said angrily,

"Black Dragon! You..."

Before Moria could finish shouting, Zigg's hand had already pressed on his big belly. A dark vortex emerged and directly crushed his internal organs into meat paste.

Moria rolled his eyes and his huge body fell to the ground with a bang.

Jiger stood in front of Moria's body with a calm look, and several black air gathered in his palm and turned into a Bible with a black cover. When the Bible disappeared, it was replaced by a black fruit wrapped in leaves, which was the Shadow Fruit.
