One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

The zombie warrior lunged forward swiftly, brushing past Luo in an instant, his right hand gripping the black sword as if sheathing it.

Luo's expression changed slightly. The Ghost Crying Blade appeared out of nowhere in his hand, which he grasped and held upright in front of him, assuming a blocking stance.

Clang!

With a loud bang, the blade of the Ghost Crying Blade in Luo's hand trembled, and a line of blood burst open from Luo's chest.

"Such fast swordplay! Zombie, who are you?"

Luo gripped his knife in his right hand and looked at the kimono-clad zombie who had turned around.

"Yohohoho, I don't know who I am either, but this body comes from two hundred years ago, from Shimotsuki Ryuma, the great swordsman of Wano Country. He was a powerful swordsman who could slay flying dragons. Guest, are you also a swordsman?"

Zombie Ryoma let out a strange laugh and looked at Law.

Luo shook his head. "I shouldn't be considered a pure swordsman. I'm a doctor, and this knife in my hand is my scalpel."

"A doctor? A doctor like Hogback? Oh ho ho ho, well then, watch out, guest, watch out for the knife in my hand, lest it cut your precious scalpel in half. This knife is Shimotsuki Ryoma's sword, the legendary Great Grade Sword, the Black Sword Shusui."

Longma leaned forward, his wooden clogs stomping as he spun and flew forward, thrusting his black blade straight out.

"Ye Ming Song! So thorny!"

The spinning black blade emitted a sharp whistling sound, and the sharp energy cut painfully into people's faces.

Luo's left hand spun with a wave of energy, and a transparent shield descended from the sky. His right hand extended the Ghost Cry longsword with domineering power, slashing diagonally upwards.

Swish!

Across the desert ahead, a gash tens of meters long appeared. The charging dragon-horse looked surprised as its body silently split in two, separating from Luo's side. It charged for more than ten meters before crashing to the ground with two thuds.

The half of his body holding the black sword looked at Luo in surprise, "Is this your sword technique? I've never seen this move before, yohohohoho, it's really powerful."

"It's a cut during surgery; it's my Devil Fruit ability. I'm sorry, Ryuma, the swordsman from two hundred years ago, I can't spar with you as a mere swordsman." Law stopped in front of Ryuma.

"No, it is I who have failed this body. A scalpel is still a knife. Guest, I acknowledge you. Can you tell me your name?" On the two halves of Ryoma's body that had been torn apart, black shadows struggled, seemingly trying to break free from his body.

“Trafalgar Law,” Law said in a low voice.

"Trafalgar Law? Very well, this legendary sword, Shusui, is yours. I hope you will treat it well."

Ryoma raised the black sword in his hand, and his eyes slowly closed.

The next moment, a black shadow broke free from his body and quickly fled into the sky.

"My shadow! Don't even think about escaping!"

Just as the shadow was about to disappear into the sky, Moria's strange cry suddenly rang out.

Immediately, an invisible force spread out, binding the shadow that had escaped hundreds of meters away, pulling it back, and merging it into Moria's body.

The moment the shadow entered his body, Moria's bloated body seemed to swell slightly. He opened his mouth full of fangs, swung his twin swords, and slashed at Hibari.

"Navy brat, aren't you a Logia type? I've never seen such a weak Logia type user. Come on, let me see how many tricks you have up your sleeve."

Chapter 334 Hibari's Armament Haki

Moria, dragging his bloated body, pounced on Lark with a grotesque laugh.

The seemingly clumsy and slow movements, however, were abruptly reversed the position of his tall figure and shadow the moment he took a step, appearing behind Hibari as if by teleportation, raising his huge scissors and slashing down at Hibari's head.

Having learned from the previous lesson of Moria capturing his shadow, Lark was hesitant to transform into a giant cloud.

While transforming into a massive thundercloud could unleash powerful lightning, it also greatly increased the range of the projected shadow, making it easier for Moria to spot.

Furthermore, we can't gamble that Moria definitely doesn't have Armament Haki and directly use his elementalized body to take his attack head-on.

Thinking of this, Yun Que did not hesitate and immediately used the Sixth Form.

"shave"

After eating the cloud fruit, Hibari felt much lighter.

After unleashing the corresponding speed-type Six Styles, the speed that is unleashed far exceeds that of before.

The moment Moria's scissors fell from the sky, Hibari's figure vanished in a flash, darting to the side.

"Thundercloud!"

With a sharp cry, she waved her hand, and a dark cloud suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of her. Lightning flashed and gathered on the cloud, transforming into a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm, which shot towards Moria's bloated belly.

Although directly transforming herself into a thundercloud carries significant risks, Hibari can still create thunderclouds. However, with her current abilities, she cannot create a large-scale cloud formation that possesses the destructive power of a natural disaster.

Click!

The lightning exploded, striking Moria's body squarely, and electric shocks coursed through his skin.

However, Moria stood there as if nothing had happened, grinning as Hibari once again conjured thunderclouds and lightning.

His body sometimes transformed into a dark shadow, and sometimes into a human form, constantly switching between the shadow warrior and his main body. Utilizing the shadow warrior's ability to be unaffected by physical attacks, he quickly approached Yun Que.

Yun Que's expression changed slightly.

This Moria is a bit troublesome.

However, if I were to back down like this...

Hibari turned his head to look at Law, Enel, and even Bepo, who had already defeated their respective opponents.

On the distant sandy ground, Palmer, wielding a steel fishing rod, was also locked in combat with the demon Oz, their battle sending sand flying and the earth trembling.

Everyone else performed exceptionally well, except for me, who had obtained the precious Nature-type Cloud Fruit.

"We can't let Brother Rorschach down! We must do our best to defeat Gecko Moria!"

Lark's gaze hardened, and he chose to confront Moria directly, no longer dodging.

She moved with the lightness of the wind, leaping into the air, clenching her fists, and charged toward Moria, who was striding toward her like a fat penguin.

"Cloud Clone!"

In the instant she charged forward, large wisps of mist rapidly surged from Lark's body, then contracted and coalesced around her, coalescing into countless Lark figures that, along with her, charged toward Moria in unison.

Moria raised his hand, and the shadow beneath his feet stood upright, transforming into a sky full of bats that fluttered towards the larks that were swarming in from all directions.

These black bats were incredibly fast, like black arrows piercing the air and piercing the bodies of larks, which then dissipated into mist.

But the clouds did not disappear; instead, they transformed into even more larks, swarming towards Moria and swinging their right fists at his body.

"Troublesome Logia-type!"

A hint of annoyance flashed in Moria's eyes.

In the past, he wouldn't have taken a weak Logia-type Devil Fruit user like Hibari seriously at all.

But ever since he was defeated by that bastard Kaido, he has been depressed for more than ten years, staying in the Devil's Triangle Sea all day long, doing nothing but eating and sleeping, turning his once slender and strong physique into the bloated and obese figure he is today.

A lack of exercise leads to a significant decrease in physical strength.

Armament Haki is a power that is closely related to the strength of the physical body.

As his physical strength continued to decline, Moria's Armament Haki also faded, and he hadn't felt that power for many years.

However, even without Armament Haki, he still has ways to deal with Logia-type users.

"Shadow Revolution! Hand of Shadows!"

Moria reached out and scooped up the scattered black bats in the air, which then converged and transformed into a shadowy hand more than ten meters in diameter. This hand caught the shadows beneath the larks, and a giant pair of scissors followed, cutting through the elongated shadows as if slicing long strips of black cloth.

Click!

With a sharp crack, dozens of shadows were cut off by Moria.

The next moment, the cloud clones, now devoid of shadows, exploded with a series of bangs, turning into mist. This time, however, the mist did not differentiate into more larks; instead, it simply dissipated.

"Hehehe, this is my Shadow-Shadow Fruit ability. As long as an object has a shadow, I can destroy its real body by cutting off its shadow! Marine brat, don't think you're invincible just because you're a Logia user. Be careful, or I might catch your shadow! Hehehe!"

Moria laughed strangely, and did the same thing again, stretching out a black shadow hand more than ten meters long, grabbing the remaining dozens of Lark shadows, and slicing them off with the scissors in his hand.

Click!

Dozens more larks exploded with a bang, turning into clouds and dissipating.

When Moria opened his massive hand for the third time and grabbed the few remaining dozen or so larks, one of them showed a look of panic on his face, twisting his body, trying to escape from Moria's shadowy grasp.

"Got you, you little navy brat!" Moria was overjoyed at the sight and decisively raised his scissors to cut.

Click!

With a series of crisp sounds, more than a dozen larks exploded and shattered, turning into wisps of mist that drifted into the air.

One of the larks, however, fell from the sky with its eyes closed, without scattering.

"Hehehe, this is the price for not having witnessed the cruelty of the sea. Kid, let me kill you and avenge Absalom." Moria grinned maliciously, raising the scissors in his hand to slash at the blindfolded Hibari.

At that moment, hundreds of meters above his head, a dark cloud, as thick as ink, had expanded to a diameter of tens of meters.

The crackling of electricity weaved back and forth through the dark clouds.

When the chaotic lightning in the dark clouds reached a critical point, the streaks of lightning converged to form a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket, which struck down from the sky.

boom!

Moriah paused, his raised scissors halting, a cry of pain escaping his lips. His bloated body jolted from the electric shock, his fat trembling uncontrollably.

At the same time, the sharp-eyed Moria noticed that there was still a faint shadow beneath the lark lying on the ground.

This discovery made Moria's mind, already somewhat dazed from being struck by lightning, even more confused.

"What happened? I clearly cut off her shadow, why..."

"That's not my shadow, it's the shadow of a cloud clone emitted by the mirage! Netherhound!"

Lark's eyes snapped open, his lower body transformed into billowing clouds, and he leaped up like a rocket, punching Moria in the chest.

Bang!

With a dull, drum-like thud, Moria opened his mouth wide, his bloated, massive body staggering back several steps before his two comical short legs slammed to his knees.

He opened his mouth, which was full of fangs, and with a "whoosh," he spat out a large spray of blood.

Moria braced himself on the ground with both arms, a look of shame and anger on his face. "You wretched brat, I'll kill you!"

Lark didn't stop, and threw another punch.

On the surface of the delicate, fair fist, a ferocious dog faintly appeared, lunging towards Moria's face.
