In fact, his pain had been reduced a lot after he transformed into a beast, but the damage from Morsen's slash was too severe, making it difficult for him to bear.

Fortunately, the terrifying vitality and regenerative abilities of Zoan-type Devil Fruit users were on full display at this moment.

As Korudo actively channeled his power, the terrible wound on his chest began to writhe and contract at a visible speed, and the gushing blood was quickly stopped. Although it did not heal immediately, he was clearly no longer in danger of dying.

Seeing this, the excitement in Mosen's eyes did not diminish, but instead became even more intense!

He flicked the blood off his knife, watching Corrudo struggle to his feet, his eyes growing increasingly ferocious. A satisfied smile crept onto his lips: "Good! Strong recovery ability, good!"

"You'd better hold on, Mr. Hyena. I believe in you!"

"Please don't die before I finish my swordsmanship experiment, that would be such a waste!"

As he spoke, Mo Sen slowly stepped forward, his sword raised. The fighting spirit and sword intent emanating from his body grew stronger and stronger, like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, even becoming somewhat dazzling.

Korudo, feeling the gaze of Mosen as if he were a "precious experimental subject," felt as if he had suffered an unprecedented humiliation.

He has been a prominent figure in the entertainment industry for over a decade since his debut, and he has never suffered such a loss or been looked down upon like this before.

Especially after he obtained this Devil Fruit, his strength increased several times over.

He's dealt with guys with bounties over 100 million before, and even those with higher bounties than Mo Sen, but none of them were as monstrous as Mo Sen.

And wasn't this guy supposed to be a Devil Fruit user, with his main ability being that bizarre fruit power? When did his swordsmanship become so strong!

Chapter 105, A New Collection of Fruits, Princess Vivi's Invitation (Part 2)

Korudo was thoroughly enraged by Morsen's gaze, which was as if he were looking at experimental subjects.

He let out a deafening roar, his body swelled and changed again, completely abandoning his human form, transforming into a giant hyena over three meters long with scarlet light flashing in its eyes!

The Dog-Dog Fruit transforms the dog into its full beast form, the hyena!

A terrifying aura spread with the stench emanating from its mouth, and the ground was cracked by its heavy claws.

After fully transforming into a beast, Cordo's speed, strength, defense, and recovery were greatly enhanced once again, but at the cost of further loss of human rationality, and his subsequent attacks became more instinctive.

"Roar! Tear you apart!!" The fully transformed Cordo spoke in a hoarse voice, his hind legs slamming into the ground as his massive body charged toward Morsen with an aura of crushing everything in its path.

Its gaping maw lunged at Morsen's head, while its forepaws slammed into his chest. The attack was simple, brutal, and incredibly fierce, brimming with savage energy.

"That's getting interesting." Mo Sen's eyes brightened slightly. Instead of flinching, he stepped forward to meet him.

His footwork shifted, his figure like a willow catkin in the wind, nimbly weaving through Corudh's ferocious claw strikes and bites.

Immediately afterward, the moment Korudo missed his attack, Mosen flicked his wrist, and with a flash of light, the blade pierced the joint between Korudo's forelimb and body with perfect precision!

"Pfft!"

"Awooo!" Kordo let out a painful roar, his forelimbs went limp, and his attack faltered.

"Free and unrestrained crescent moon!" Mosen drew his sword, sending a spray of blood into the air. Then, without stopping, he slashed upwards, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound on Korudo's side.

His sword techniques flowed effortlessly from his hands, each move concise and efficient, directly targeting weaknesses. Although there were no fixed routines, they still resonated with a certain natural rhythm.

He was using Corrudo's powerful beastly body as a whetstone to constantly test and refine his nascent swordsmanship philosophy.

Korudo's wounds multiplied, and the blood almost stained his grayish-brown fur red.

The powerful regenerative abilities granted by Zoan-type Devil Fruits are being rapidly depleted, and the healing speed of new wounds cannot keep up with the rate at which new ones are being inflicted.

His movements inevitably began to slow down, and his roars carried a hint of pain and barely perceptible fear.

At this moment, he was completely certain that the man in front of him had not used his full strength at all, but was just toying with him and using him to practice his sword skills!

"Roar!!!" The extreme humiliation and the threat of death ignited Corudo's final ferocity.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he no longer cared about any defense, pouring all his remaining strength and life force into this final blow!

The creature stood upright, its massive body pressing down on Mosen. Its two front paws crossed and swung, creating a shrill whistling sound that tore through the air. Its blood-red maw opened to its limit, revealing sharp teeth, as if it wanted to devour Mosen alive!

Faced with this all-out counterattack, like a dying beast, a cold glint flashed in Mosen's eyes.

"ended."

He spoke in a low voice, his body slightly crouching down, his center of gravity lowering, and a refined silver-white luster flashed across the Snow Walk Blade in his hand.

That wasn't the pitch black of Armament Haki, but rather the manifestation of a highly concentrated slashing will and sword energy!

"Free and easy, just a narrow passage!"

The moment the words left his mouth, Mo Sen moved.

His figure seemed to merge with the knife in his hand, transforming into a straight, extremely thin silver line that instantly pierced through the very center of Corrudo's attack!

Time seemed to freeze for a moment at that instant.

next second.

"laugh!"

With a faint, almost inaudible cutting sound, Corudo's massive beast body seemed to be paused, frozen in mid-air.

The ferocious expression on its face froze, and the madness and violence in its crimson eyes quickly faded, replaced by a blank and empty look.

A thin line of blood ran straight down from the center of its forehead, past its mouth, neck, chest, and abdomen...

"Splash!"

Blood gushed out like a waterfall!

Corudh's body was neatly split in two along the bloodline, slowly sliding to the left and right, finally crashing heavily to the ground with a "bang," his internal organs and blood spilling everywhere, before falling silent.

A clean cut! "Hyena" Corrudo is dead!

Just as Korudo's life force was extinguished and his consciousness completely dissipated, an invisible wave began to quietly emanate from his corpse.

That's a sign that the Devil Fruit power, after the user's death, is about to return to the world and await rebirth in a fruit somewhere in the world.

Mosen had been waiting for this for a long time.

He opened his left hand and activated the "Collection Fruit" ability towards Cordo's corpse!

Then an invisible suction force emanated from his palm, precisely capturing and binding the fruit power fluctuations that were about to dissipate.

The invisible fluctuations, as if drawn by an invisible vortex, rapidly converged and compressed towards Morsen's palm, eventually forming a palm-sized image with a strange spiral pattern. At the center of the pattern was a light gray sticker of a simple hyena head, which floated lightly into Morsen's palm.

[Zoan-type Dog-Dog Fruit, Hyena Form], added to collection!

Meanwhile, the battle on the other side had also ended.

The remaining members of the "Hyena Gang" were no match for Robin to begin with, not to mention that they had witnessed Cordo being easily killed by Morsen like cutting melons and vegetables. At this moment, they were already terrified and had lost all fighting spirit.

They tried to escape, but under the influence of the Baccarat Fruit's power, they all fell to the ground in all sorts of unbelievable ways, and were then harvested by Robin one by one.

They were all subdued with almost no effort, lying haphazardly on the ground, unconscious.

"Captain, all done!" Nami clapped her hands as she put away the ropes, looking at the bounty hunters bound all over the ground, quite satisfied with her "achievements".

Although she lacked combat skills, she was very good at cleaning up the battlefield, and she looted all the remaining treasures and money from these guys.

"Is this another new find?" Robin walked to Morsen's side, his gaze sweeping over Corudo's body, which was broken in two, and landing on the new sticker in Morsen's palm. A look of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Bakara also came over at this moment, looking at the sticker curiously: "Hmm! Another one? What kind of ability does it have this time? Is it a dog? Or a wolf? That guy just now looked so ugly!"

Mosen nodded, putting the sticker away as he responded: "It's a Zoan type, the Dog-Dog Fruit in Hyena form, a pretty good Zoan type fruit."

"Captain, your swordsmanship seems to have improved again?" Nami blinked as she watched Mosen sheath his sword. Mosen's fluid and incredibly sharp swordsmanship had left a deep impression on her.

She was even thinking about whether she should learn swordsmanship herself, at least to increase her combat power. After all, Mo Sen was a ready-made teacher, so why not learn?

"I have some insights, but I haven't fully organized them yet," Mo Sen smiled.

Just then, a series of rapid footsteps came from the end of the street, mixed with the clanging of armor.

A large contingent of fully armed Alabasta Kingdom guards, led by their chief guard Ikaram and the guard who had delivered the message earlier, arrived with grave expressions.

When Ikaram received an urgent report from his subordinates that the "Hyena Gang" was so brazen, not only taking action in the capital but also completely ignoring the kingdom's guards and even trying to wipe them out, he immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly gathered his men to rush over.

However, judging from the current situation, the expected fierce confrontation and battle do not seem to have occurred.

Only the royal guards who had been ordered to "remind" him stood there in the alley, pale-faced, their eyes still filled with shock and fear.

A large number of corpses lay scattered on the ground, their blood staining the stone floor red, and the air was filled with a strong stench of blood.

At the heart of the conflict, Mosen and his group stood there calmly and composed.

Robin was elegantly tidying her slightly disheveled hair; Bakura and Nami were already calculating how many Berries they could squeeze out of these guys...

It was as if they hadn't just been in a life-or-death battle, but had simply swatted a few annoying flies.

This stark contrast left Icarus and the kingdom's guards, who had rushed over, momentarily at a loss for how to react.

"Captain Icarum! You've arrived!" The stunned guards finally snapped out of their daze and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, their voices still trembling slightly: "Those attackers have... have been dealt with by these men..."

Icarim's lips twitched, and he looked at Morsen with a complicated expression.

He had heard of the names of Hyena Corrudo and his men; they were a force to be reckoned with on the Grand Line.

Who knew these guys would be dealt with so quickly after encountering Mosen and his group, it could even be said that the situation was completely one-sided.

Especially when he saw the body of Corrudo, neatly split in two on the ground, even the experienced captain of the guard couldn't help but twitch his eye.

"Collector, and ladies, are you all alright?" Icarum asked, suppressing his shock and trying to keep his voice steady.

In any case, the relationship between Mosen and the royal family is generally friendly.

Especially after witnessing Morsen's terrifying strength firsthand, Icarum has changed his previous idea of ​​remaining neutral and decided to maintain a friendly relationship.

As for the Navy's opinion? What is that? Alabasta is, after all, a member state of the World Government. Although Mosen is a wanted criminal, that doesn't affect their private relationship.

Upon hearing this, Mo Sen casually waved his hand and said, "It's alright, just a few annoying hyenas, they've already been taken care of."

Just as Ikaram was about to speak and arrange for people to clean up the scene and deal with these guys, he heard a series of urgent "creaking" sounds and running sounds coming from the other end of the street.

"Make way! Make way! Karu, faster!"

A sturdy, fast-running duck was seen carrying a small human figure as it rushed over at an astonishing speed, then suddenly stopped in front of the crowd, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Princess Vivi was riding on the back of the running duck, her little face still flushed with excitement from the race.

"Ikaram! I heard there's been fighting here! How's the Collector? What are they..."

As they were talking, Vivi spotted Morsen standing calmly opposite Icarus, and her sapphire-like eyes lit up instantly.

She tried hard to project the dignity of a princess, but her excitement and curiosity still slipped out of her eyes.
