Chapter 145 Shadow Gathering Place

"Kid!"

Moriah gritted his teeth, swallowed the blood in his mouth, and looked at Rhodes with a ferocious expression.

"You pissed me off!"

"oh?"

Rhodes clenched his fists.

Moria is probably the weakest among the current Shichibukai.

The battle with Kaido not only caused him to lose all his companions, but also made him lose his ambition to conquer the sea. He could only huddle in this devil's triangle area shrouded in black mist all year round.

In this sea, domineering overpowers everything!

The power of domineering is related to the user's will, and being firm is powerful.

The current Moria obviously does not have such unwavering faith and will.

"I pissed you off, what next?"

"Shadow Horn Gun!"

Moria's shadow mage turned into a shadow and returned to the ground at some point. As Moria's voice fell, the shadow instantly turned into a spear and attacked Rhodes.

A red light flashed in Rhodes' eyes, his steps staggered slightly, he directly avoided Moria's attack, and then walked towards him casually.

"Shadow Bat!"

After missing a hit, Moria's expression remained unchanged, and he controlled his shadow to turn into bats in the sky, biting towards Rhodes.

This is a bat transformed from his shadow. Like a shadow mage, it has the characteristic of being immune to physical attacks.

Not only that, the scattered shadow bats can also make it more difficult for the enemy to attack.

"Fancy!"

Facing Moria's moves, Rhodes commented lightly.

Then the domineering energy gathered in his fist, and he swung out his fist towards the shadow bats that were flying over like the overwhelming sun.

"Ba Fist·Impact!"

The powerful punch force was released instantly along with Rhode's domineering force, forming a huge impact with a very wide coverage, covering all the shadow bats flying in the face.

Bang bang bang——

Under Rhode's attack, all the oncoming shadow bats were instantly shattered into pieces and turned into pools of ink that fell to the ground.

"As I said, domineering is the standard to measure the strong!"

Rhodes appeared in front of Moriah and waved his fist again.

"Don't be too cocky, kid!"

Moria looked ferocious.

"It's not your turn to make irresponsible remarks to me!"

"Shadow Warrior!"

Moria's figure suddenly disappeared from in front of Rhodes and appeared behind him. The scattered shadow that was originally behind Rhodes reorganized into a shadow mage and appeared in front of Rhodes. .

This is another ability of Moria - [Shadow Warrior]!

[Shadow Warrior] allows Moria to exchange positions with the Shadow Mage. This move can be said to be unfavorable when used in battle. Very few people can avoid a sneak attack by surprise.

"Shadow box!"

Knowing that the power of Shadow Mage could not hurt Rhodes at all, Moria immediately used another ability of his - Shadow Box after exchanging places with Shadow Mage!

Shadow Box turns his shadow into a black box, trapping enemies.

The shadow mage's body changed directly when he exchanged with Moria and appeared in front of Rhodes. However, in the blink of an eye, it turned into a huge black box, and he was originally preparing to attack Moria. Rhodes rushed directly into the shadow box as if he had thrown himself into a trap.

"Hehehehe~~"

Seeing the shadow box closing smoothly and locking Rhodes inside, Moria had a sly smile on his face.

"Although Haki is powerful, don't ignore the power of Devil Fruit because of this!"

As a great pirate who once fought against Kaido, Moria also mastered the two-color Haki.

However, the defeat in that battle completely shattered his energy and energy, and he could no longer use his domineering force as he did before.

However, as he said, although Haki is important, the power of Devil Fruit cannot be underestimated.

"Hehehehe~~"

Moria looked at the shadow box not far away.

Next, as long as you remove the opponent's shadow, you will be able to harvest a super powerful zombie!

Thinking of the demon's corpse that he had kept in the warehouse, Moria felt a flash of fire in his heart.

A long time ago, he obtained the corpse of the demon Oz, but because he never had a suitable shadow, he could not transform it into a qualified zombie.

However, as long as we can get this shadow of Rhodes, we should be able to unleash the greatest power of Demon Oz!

Thinking of the powerful size and overwhelming power of the demon Oz, Moria couldn't help but feel swayed.

With such power, you should be able to defeat you, Kaido! !

Bang! !

The shadow box in front of him suddenly exploded, and scattered shadows splashed onto the ground, leaving a trail of marks.

"As I said, it's all bells and whistles!"

"If you were a black coffin, I would still be afraid of you."

Rhodes glanced at Moriah, who looked ugly.

"Here we come."

What?

As soon as this thought flashed through Moria's mind, the next moment he felt a sharp pain coming from his abdomen.

Wow--

A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and Moria's body instantly flew backwards, penetrating through the walls of the multi-story castle.

"This is... Lord Moria!!!"

Absalom looked at Moriah who suddenly flew in front of him, his eyes suddenly bulged and his face looked horrified.

At this time, Moria's face was pale, and there were still a few traces of blood on the corners of his mouth. He looked completely different from his usual indifference.

Could it be that...

Thinking of the Rhodes who left to find Moria, Absalom's heart tightened.

No way, the opponent is just a new pirate who has just gone to sea, how can he defeat Lord Moria! ?

"Watch out for sword-wielding zombies!"

Rhodes followed closely and took a look at Gray who was fighting zombies.

"I know, I know."

"Oh my, my, I still can't change your bad taste."

"After all, this guy is someone who even wants to steal the shoes of female marines."

"Is there such a story? I've never heard of it."

"I'm telling you..."

Nia and Robin discussed Rhode's embarrassment mercilessly.

With Gray at the front, the two of them only had to deal with some fish that slipped through the net, and there was no pressure at all.

"You bastard!"

Moria looked at Rhodes walking over.

That's it again!

The opponent just punched him and made him lose his resistance.

Is this guy really just a pirate who just went out to sea?

"Are there any other moves?"

Rhodes looked at Moriah expectantly.

This operation was carried out together with Big Bear, and Rhodes even expected that Moriah would suddenly explode and severely injure him.

Although this is unlikely.

"A mere newcomer!"

Rhode's expectant eyes were like a knife thrust into Moriah's heart.

He was once a great pirate who caused waves in this sea!

When did a newbie pirate treat him with such an attitude?

"You're just a newbie, let me show you what real terror is!"

Moria ignored the pain in his body, pushed Absalom away, stood up suddenly, and stretched out his hands.

"Shadow gathering place!!"

The gathering place of shadows is the secret ability of Moria’s Shadow Fruit!

This is his most powerful move. It can absorb all the shadows controlled by him on this terrifying three-masted sailing ship into his own body, thereby greatly increasing his own strength.

The Shadow Fruit can gain part of the shadow master's power by inserting shadows into the body, and after Moria uses the Shadow Gathering Ground, the power of all the shadows on the island will be blessed by him.

After gathering the power of hundreds or thousands of people, Moria didn't know what extent his power would reach.

"Come on, all the shadows on the terrifying barque, become my strength!!"

As Moria's words fell, black lines sprang out from Moria's feet and quickly spread along the ground in all directions.

"This is···"

The first ones to be affected were the zombie generals who were still fighting Gray in the hall.

The black lines spread to their bodies, and the bodies of these zombie generals suddenly shook.

The shadows in their bodies disappeared the moment the black line touched them!

The zombies that had lost their shadows turned into corpses again, and there were "snap" sounds of falling to the ground one after another in the hall.

"Eh?"

Gray, who was about to continue testing the robot's performance, was slightly startled.

The enemies in front of me all fell down for no apparent reason.

The fall of zombies here is just the beginning. Further away, as the black line spreads, zombies continue to fall after their shadows are sucked away from their bodies.

"There's someone fighting on the island!"

"You even pushed that guy to the point where he wanted to absorb shadows!"

On the terrifying three-masted sailboat, in addition to Moria and several of his men, there were also a large number of pirates.

They are all people whose shadows were taken away by Moriah.

After losing their shadows, they could not walk freely in the sun. As long as they were exposed to the sun, their bodies would instantly turn into fly ash. Therefore, they could only hide on this terrifying three-masted sailboat, looking for slim opportunities.

A chance to take back his own shadow and regain his freedom.

And they also know something about Moria's moves. In this situation, it is obvious that the other party is preparing to absorb all the shadows on the island to strengthen itself.

Perhaps, this is the opportunity they have been waiting for!

"We must win, the unknown strong man!"

"Hehehehe~~"

Shadows coming from all directions entered Moria's body one after another. As those shadows entered, Moria's body swelled visibly. His height of nearly seven meters became even larger. The person exudes a powerful aura.

"Six hundred!"

Moria felt the powerful power filling his body.

"I absorbed six hundred shadows, and the original powers and skills of these shadow masters all belong to me!"

After absorbing so many shadows, while growing in size, the color of Moria's skin changed and became a bit blue.

"Can you defeat me like this!"

The use of Shadow Rendezvous is not without conditions.

The most important of these is affordability.

As long as a dozen shadows are stuffed into the body, the average person will have a nervous breakdown and be unable to bear it.

As a user of the Shadow Fruit, Moria can withstand more shadows, but six hundred shadows has almost reached the limit of what he can bear.

Moria now only feels that the power in his body is about to explode.

This power, which even the user himself is almost unable to withstand, will surely defeat the enemy in front of him!

Moria looked at Rhodes with his bloodshot eyes.
