One Piece: The Will of Conqueror is the strongest!

The dragon-horse zombie slowly sheathed Qiu Shui.

Shimotsuki Ryoma simply turned around and looked at the other person calmly.

"I lost!"

After saying this, the Dragon Horse Zombie's body tore apart and he collapsed to the ground.

Shimotsuki Ryoma's robe was only slightly torn at the corner; he was not injured.

"Not bad swordsmanship."

Shimotsuki Ryoma walked towards Ryoma Zombie, picked up his own Autumn Water, held it in his hand, and then looked at Moria.

"It's the real deal!"

"The swordsman who once slew a dragon, Shimotsuki Ryuma!"

Moria was unusually excited.

This is the real Shimotsuki Ryoma!

"After I defeat you, I hope you will tell me what happened."

Shimotsuki Ryoma's gaze towards Moria wasn't very pleasant.

After all, Moria looked strange and didn't look like a good person at all.

Moreover, it seemed that the desiccated version of myself just now was being controlled by this guy.

"Hee-lo-lo-lo!"

"It is my honor to fight against the Dragon Slayer Sword Master!"

However, Moria seemed completely open and aboveboard, and was actually quite excited.

He really liked the culture of Wano Country, which is why he stayed there for a while and befriended the locals.

Later, when something happens in Wano Country, he will rush over to help.

He's far superior to that trash, Kozuki Oden.

Shimotsuki Ryoma hadn't expected Moria to answer like that, and his impression of him changed slightly.

Then Moria also took out his weapon, a very large pair of scissors, which he split in two to become two long swords, making him a dual-wielder as well.

Only after seeing that Moria was ready did Shimotsuki Ryoma take the initiative to attack.

The two then quickly clashed in the banquet hall, destroying the furniture. The zombie soldiers and Absalom and others immediately retreated to the side, while Brando frowned.

Because his chakra was constantly being depleted.

After Shimotsuki Ryoma was resurrected using Edo Tensei, Brando's chakra was being depleted from the start of the battle. Moreover, Brando confirmed that the chakra consumption was very noticeable when Ryoma used Armament Haki.

The healing process after his clothes were torn by the Ryuma zombie also consumed chakra.

So now the infinite chakra of the Edo Tensei is gone; what's being used is the chakra of the summoner, which is essentially using a flow of chakra.

"I've become a WiFi hotspot after being resurrected through Edo Tensei!!"

Brando didn't want this to happen, but it was the truth.

The Byakugan clearly detected that some of the chakra that had leaked from his body had been absorbed into the body of the Ryuma zombie.

Using Armament Haki increases energy consumption significantly. Brando doesn't know why chakra can be converted into Armament Haki. Even if energy is conserved, Armament Haki doesn't appear out of thin air; it requires stamina to maintain.

With such limitations, Brando's infinite army of reanimated creatures would be ineffective, since it would consume his chakra. Unless the reanimated creatures have special abilities, it would be more appropriate to use wood clones.

Its own mechanisms will be stronger.

In the battle, Moria was clearly at a disadvantage. If he hadn't been constantly using the Shadow-Shadow Fruit to teleport, he probably would have been defeated long ago.

Given Moria's close-combat skills, he shouldn't have been defeated so quickly.

The main reason is that after being defeated by Kaido, he became despondent and stopped training. He was obsessed with creating zombie soldiers because he didn't want his subordinates to die anymore, so he chose to create immortal soldiers.

Therefore, their practical combat ability has declined too much.

Brando directly controlled the chakra, preventing it from flowing to Shimotsuki Ryoma.

"Ok?"

Shimotsuki Ryoma felt his power being restricted once again.

Using Armament Haki has become somewhat difficult, as if it's consuming my lifespan.

At the same time, his Observation Haki also revealed that the changes in his appearance seemed to originate from that young man's blond hair.

Chapter 96 Shimotsuki Ryoma's Strength

"It seems we need to decide the winner quickly."

Frost Moon Dragon Horse's eyes narrowed.

He felt that he didn't have much time left and couldn't continue to wear down Moria. After a clash, Shimotsuki Ryoma gripped Shusui tightly.

Moria also sensed the change in Shimotsuki Ryoma's aura.

"Shadow Gathering Place!"

Moria was the first to erupt, directly seizing the shadows of the zombies in the castle and absorbing them into his own body.

His body expanded rapidly, and his strength increased as well.

"Final Move? Black Abyss Dragon Slayer!"

Frost Moon Dragon Horse gripped Autumn Water tightly, and a black aura appeared on the sword, as if cherry blossoms were falling from the blade.

A dark aura, as deep as an abyss, swirled around the Autumn Water Sword, and a demon seemed to appear behind the Frost Moon Dragon Horse.

At the same time, the temperature in the entire banquet hall dropped by several degrees.

"boom!"

Frost Moon Dragon Horse exerted a sudden burst of force with its feet, shattering the ground.

He charged straight at Moria like a fierce general.

Moria's power nearly doubled, and he swung the twin swords formed from his scissors forward with all his might.

In the blink of an eye, Shimotsuki Ryoma had arrived behind Moria and calmly sheathed Shusui.

Moria was struck in the abdomen with great force, and he was severely injured. He collapsed, clutching his stomach, and the shadow he had just absorbed kept spilling from his mouth.

“I used the back of the blade, so he will not be in any danger.”

Shimotsuki Ryoma looked at Brando and said.

He knew that this young man was the one who truly controlled the situation.

"Boss, are you alright?"

When Absalom saw that the fighting had stopped, he immediately went to check on Moria's condition.

At the same time, he called Hogback over to treat Moria, who had just been struck by Brando's kidney and then electrocuted by the new energy water prison.

My body isn't at its peak anymore.

However, Shimotsuki Ryoma also had significant physical limitations, making it impossible for him to unleash his full potential.

"You are already dead, but I have awakened your soul and am experimenting with a new ability."

"He will explain the Wano Country matter to you later. I have another experiment to conduct now, so you should go to sleep for a while."

Brando said to Shimotsuki Ryoma.

Then, he controlled Shimotsuki Ryoma to fall into a deep sleep. Shimotsuki Ryoma was unable to resist and closed his eyes immediately.

Brando then walked up to Shimotsuki Ryoma and placed his right hand on his head.

He was trying to read Shimotsuki Ryoma's memories in his Edo Tensei state.

With his other hand, Brando pried open one of Shimotsuki Ryoma's eyelids and used his Sharingan abilities to invade the other's mental consciousness.

Brando released his grip after about five minutes.

"I've found another way to gain experience."

Brando successfully obtained Shimotsuki Ryuma's memories of Armament Haki and swordsmanship.

This includes Ryuo, as well as some of Shimotsuki Ryoma's swordsmanship.

However, Brando wasn't very interested in swordsmanship. He only memorized a few of Shimotsuki Ryoma's powerful moves, because most sword techniques were ultimately about numerical strength.

A strong force means great destructive power, and a fast speed means it can hit you first.

Brando then casually tore off Shimotsuki Ryoma's right hand, which fell to the ground and turned into burnt paper-like fragments of powder.

At the same time, Shimotsuki Ryoma's body absorbed chakra from Brando's body to repair his torn arm. The recovery speed was very fast, and it was restored within five seconds.

Moria, who was sitting on the ground nearby, looked somewhat dejected as Hogback treated him.

Clearly, losing to Shimotsuki Ryoma left him somewhat resentful, and he also felt that his strength had declined significantly, relying entirely on the power of the Devil Fruit.

Brando then revived Shimotsuki Ryoma.

Shimotsuki Ryoma's face showed dissatisfaction, clearly unhappy about being controlled like this.
