The Journey of Freedom After the Awakening of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit

"bump!"

Before Kizaru could finish his lewd words, his expression suddenly changed, and he felt a sharp pain in his right calf.

But in that instant, Moria raised his right hand and grabbed Moria's kicking shin. With Moria's size and large hand, it was like grabbing a chicken leg.

"Click!"

Moria's eyes turned cold, and with a powerful clench of his right hand, he crushed Kizaru's right calf like a ramen noodle in an instant.

With another twist, Kizaru's calf twisted like a pretzel, and blood spurted out.

"Moria!!!" Kizaru roared in pain.

Moria ignored him, glanced at Kizaru, and said indifferently, "Who pays your salary so that you have the illusion that you can kill me with one blow?"

Without looking at the bewildered and confused look in Kizaru's eyes, Moria turned around, grabbed Kizaru's calf with his right hand, and forcefully swung it downwards.

"call out!"

Kizaru transformed into a beam of yellow light and shot directly into the sea below.

"Oh!"

A 30-meter-high wave exploded on the sea surface. In the end, Kizaru could not escape Moria's power. He turned into light and escaped, but was smashed into the sea.

"Salino!!" Sengoku's expression changed.

"Oh!"

At this moment, before the water splash from where Kizaru fell into the water had completely dissipated, another splash erupted.

A figure flew out of the sea; it was Garp, who was holding Kizaru's wrist.

"Go back, leave the rest to me!!"

Garp said something to Sengoku, then tossed poor Kizaru to Sengoku like a piece of cargo.

"bump!"

Sengoku caught Kizaru, who had already lost consciousness.

"Then be careful!"

Seeing that Garp was not injured, Sengoku was relieved. After giving him some instructions, he took Kizaru and flew back to the warship using Moonwalk.

"Moria!!"

Garp hovered in the air using Moonwalk, and smiled at Moria, saying, "The long-lost passion is boiling again. Let's have a good fight this time."

As he spoke, Garp unbuttoned a few buttons, loosened his collar, revealing his strong chest muscles, and his aura was completely different from before.

An extremely frenzied aura rushed towards Moria. It wasn't Conqueror's Haki, but it still gave people a feeling of dread.

If one's mind is not strong enough, one will not even have the slightest thought of resistance in the face of this frenzied momentum; one's mind and body will be controlled by fear and unable to move.

"Clang clang clang clang!"

Moria looked at Garp with a solemn expression, and four sharp tails suddenly appeared behind him.

"Kura la la! La!"

Whitebeard, aboard the Moby Whale, saw Garp's familiar aura, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and he burst into laughter.

“It seems different now, Garp’s aura!” Marco narrowed his eyes, he too sensed Garp’s unusual demeanor.

"Besides his reputation as a naval hero and his proud iron fist, Garp..."

Whitebeard laughed and said, "Mad dog! That's what makes him so fearsome. Even Roger and I would have a hard time if he were in that state."

"A mad dog, huh?!" Marco and the others nodded in agreement as they looked at Garp.

I think the nickname "mad dog" really fits Garp's current state; it does indeed convey a sense of reckless madness.

"All right!"

Whitebeard laughed loudly, "The real battle is about to begin. Take a good look at the strength of the Marine hero Garp."

Upon hearing this, Marco and the others stared intently at Garp, eagerly anticipating an even more exciting battle to come.

"Mam! Mam!"

Charlotte Linlin put down her knife somewhat awkwardly and laughed, "That Moria is quite strong. It seems we'll have to wait a bit longer."

The rest of the Big O Pirates also awkwardly put down their swords and guns.

The scene just now went from initially thinking Moria was going to lose, to Garp being thrown into the sea, and then Garp coming out of the sea.

Although the time was only a few seconds, the amount of information was enormous.

At least they understood that they wouldn't have a chance to take Moria away until Moria and Garp were truly locked in a life-or-death struggle.

Given Moria's current strength, even if his mother Charlotte Linlin were to personally intervene, it wouldn't be effective.

"This guy is dangerous. I hope he doesn't target Mom so soon!"

Unlike the others, Katakuri looked at Moria's figure with a furrowed brow, deep in thought.

Katakuri had personally witnessed the ability of Shadow Servant, and now that Moria possessed such power, he felt it was only a matter of time before he set his sights on his mother's shadow.

"I must become stronger and see further into the future so that I can protect everyone."

At that moment, Katakuri, realizing the danger Moria posed to his brothers and sisters, secretly resolved to become stronger.

Chapter 62 It's Back

Skull Island.

The surrounding sea was silent; everyone's attention was focused on Moria and Garp.

high in the air.

Moria and Garp stood facing each other!

Moria glanced at Garp, who was radiating madness not far away, and secretly became wary.

Others might think he was incredibly powerful, having sunk the entire Skull Island with a single blow.

But only he knew that if it hadn't been Garp, whose body was covered in Armament Haki, who was sent flying, but someone else, it would have been impossible to sink Skull Island.

At most, it would only create a crater a few hundred meters wide.

Therefore, Moriah knew his own limitations.

"Tremble!"

"Tap tap!"

Garp twisted his neck, his sharp, crazed gaze fixed on Moria, but he didn't say a word.

Moria's gaze sharpened as he looked at Garp without saying a word, but his body tensed instantly.

"call out!"

"call out!"

Suddenly, the two vanished from their spot, and two white circular shockwaves appeared only after they disappeared.

"Clang!"

When they reappeared, Moria and Garp had already clashed.

The two fists, one big and one small, collided. As expected, Moria's right hand couldn't withstand Garp's Ryuo Haki attack this time, and it cracked open with a "bang bang bang," splattering blood.

"Boom!"

The only unexpected thing was that this time, the force that overflowed when the two collided no longer spread out from the two of them.

Instead, they all spread out towards Moria's back.

"Bang bang!"

Below and behind Moria, on the sea surface, the airwaves created by the spreading force instantly carved out a cone-shaped trench starting from him.

The waves surged together, forming a giant wave fifty meters high that crashed into the East China Sea where the naval warships were anchored.

Faced with the oncoming wave, Sengoku and the other naval commanders used their respective attacks to calm it down.

On the other side!

With his right hand damaged, Moria instantly absorbed life energy to repair his injury.

At the same time, he clenched his left fist and threw a punch, as Garp once again flung away his right fist and lunged forward.

This time, Moria naturally wouldn't be attacked in the head by Garp at close range like the first time.

Garp wasn't surprised that it wasn't so easy to hit Moria's head. Facing Moria's left fist, he also swung his left arm and clenched his left fist to throw a punch at Moria.

"Clang!"

Another fierce clash of forces ensued, and Moria's left hand temporarily lost its fighting ability, becoming limp and requiring life energy to recover.

Even if the injury can heal quickly, it still takes time.

In battles between the strong, victory or defeat can often be decided in just a fraction of a second.

Garp, of course, wouldn't miss the moment when Moria's hands were powerless.

"tread!"

Garp used Moonwalk to close the distance, still intending to attack Moria's head and kill him in one blow.

Moria's brow furrowed, but he remained calm. He had been prepared for this moment; the four tails that had gathered behind him were meant for this very moment.

"Shhhhhhh!"

Four sharp tails, hardened with Armament Haki, shot towards Garp's vital points.

Garp tilted his head, twisting left and right, and dodged Moria's three tail thrusts at close range. He couldn't dodge the last one.

But

"Snapped!"

Garp grabbed the tip of Moria's tail with his right hand in front of his chest.

With a slightly thick layer of flowing cherry blossoms covering his five fingers, he exerted a little force.

"Click!"
