I collect everything in the One Piece world.

It was a lifeless corpse that, like a tattered sack, crashed heavily onto the open ground in front of Lucci and Kaku with a "thud," kicking up a cloud of dust.

The body was lying face down, but the familiar clothing and the half of his blood-stained face that was exposed were enough to identify him as Jabra, who was ordered to capture Nico Robin!

"Hey, you pigeon farmer down there, is that stray dog ​​that's biting people everywhere one of your companions?"

Mosen stood on the edge of the roof, tilted his head slightly, looked down at Lu Qi who was exuding murderous aura, and showed a very "kind" smile.

A deathly silence enveloped the entire abandoned shipyard.

Franky and Iceberg stared dumbfounded at Morsen and his group, who had suddenly appeared on the roof, and then at Gabra's corpse on the ground. Their minds were almost blank.

Lu Qi slowly lowered his head, looking at the lifeless corpse of Gabrana at his feet, and then slowly raised his head to look at Morsen on the roof.

Those eyes, which were always as cold as ice, were now churning with raging fury and murderous intent.

Hadley, the pigeon on his shoulder, seemed to sense its master's near-explosive emotions and flapped its wings uneasily.

“B, Lai, Ke, Mo, Sen…”

Lu Qi spat out Mosen's name through gritted teeth, his tone chillingly cold.

Gabra's corpse was like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing his last shred of hope, but also igniting his most violent rage.

The dignity of CP9, years of infiltration, the frustration of failing at the last minute, the hatred of losing his comrades... all of these transformed into the most extreme killing intent towards Morsen.

However, facing Lucci's terrifying killing intent, Mo Sen was like a gentle spring breeze. Not only did he not show any fear, but he also nodded in agreement and showed a satisfied smile: "Very good, it seems I don't need to introduce myself. It saves me a lot of trouble."

“Well…” His smile suddenly turned cold, and his eyes sharpened as he swept over Lucci and Kaku below: “As a return gift, I will soon send you two to reunite with your colleagues.”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

Even denser shells than before appeared out of thin air, whistling out from the void beside Mosen.

These shells were of various shapes and were obviously "collected" from different ships, but at this moment they all came crashing down on Lucci and Kaku below!

"Fire! Get out of the way!" Lu Qi shouted sharply, activating the "Shave" technique under his feet, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot, leaving only an afterimage.

Kaku reacted just as quickly, dodging the shell the instant it hit him, his figure moving like a ghost through the gaps in the explosion's flames and shockwaves.

Boom boom boom boom!!!

The deafening explosions rang out one after another, and the abandoned shipyard was instantly transformed into a purgatory of flames and smoke!

The ground was blasted into scorched craters, and broken wood and stones were thrown up by the shockwave and fell like rain.

Meanwhile, Robin and her friends took advantage of the chaos to rescue Franky and Iceberg, and then left the area as instructed by Morsen.

Lucci and Kaku, with their superior physical skills, managed to dodge and weave through the dense artillery fire.

They never imagined that one day they would become the target of a saturation barrage of artillery fire.

In the past, CP9 would always stand aside and watch as naval warships turned target areas into scorched earth with their cannon fire.

Now, however, the roles have been reversed, and the frustration of being forced to passively take hits and constantly running around fuels their anger even more.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on with his damn Devil Fruit ability?! How many more cannonballs does he have left?!" Kaku dodged a cannonball that exploded beside him in a sorry state, the scorching blast of air blowing his hat off.

By now, information about the Collector Blackmosen has become increasingly abundant, and they also know that Mosen possesses an extremely bizarre ability to "collect" and unleash attacks.

However, despite knowing this, the almost endless barrage of artillery fire still exceeded their expectations.

Even more troublesome is that, according to the scattered information circulating after the Alabasta incident, this man seems to have gained the ability to manipulate sand after defeating Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Right now, the abilities he has shown are far less than what has been recorded in the intelligence. Who knows how many trump cards this guy has hidden?

This unpredictability and cunning, along with his numerous methods, are precisely what makes Mosen, this "collector," so fearsome and troublesome.

"Never mind his abilities! Get close to him quickly! Fight him with hand-to-hand combat!" Lucci's voice came between the explosions.

He knew very well that from that high vantage point on the rooftop, with the almost unlimited long-range firepower, the two of them would simply be worn down and killed. So they had to get close!

Only through close combat, relying on their honed Six Styles and the powerful bodies granted by Zoan-type Devil Fruits, can they have a chance of winning!

Their eyes met, and they instantly reached a consensus. So, in a lull between another round of gunfire, Lucci and Kaku simultaneously stomped their feet on the air!

"Moonwalk!"

Bang! Bang! The air exploded with a loud bang as the two figures shot into the sky like arrows released from a bow!

They skillfully evaded the occasional shells fired from the sky, tracing two zigzag paths through the air as they approached Mosen on the rooftop at an astonishing speed!

Mosen stood on the edge of the roof, the wind whipping at the corners of his clothes, below him a series of explosions and towering flames.

He remained unmoved, watching with interest as Lucci and Kaku, like two large birds, rapidly approached on moonwalk, a hint of disappointment even showing on his face.

"Is that all? Compared to the 'Fox Hunt Squad' we encountered in Alabasta, they seem a bit lacking..." Morsen muttered to himself, assessing the strength of the two people in front of him.

To be honest, if we disregard the filter of the characters from the original work, Lucci is far less powerful than the previous Rhine.

Just as Lucci and Kaku were about to break through the final distance and their fierce attack was about to arrive, Morsen's figure vanished into thin air.

"What?!" Lucci and Kaku's pupils shrank. They had already charged forward and almost locked onto the spot where Morsen had been standing. Their fists and kicks were ready to be thrown, but their target suddenly disappeared.

This feeling was like punching empty air with all your might, so uncomfortable that it almost made them vomit blood.

But in the next instant, a deadly sense of crisis instantly enveloped his heart.

"Up there!" Lucci reacted the fastest, twisting his body in mid-air and looking up.

Suddenly, Mosen appeared in the air diagonally above them, his position perfectly blocking their path to continue ascending.

The playful smile on his face had vanished, replaced by a cold indifference.

His hands clenched into fists, and jet-black Armament Haki instantly enveloped and covered him as if it were alive, gleaming with a metallic cold light.

Without any unnecessary movements or fancy moves, Morsen descended like a meteorite, simple, direct, and incredibly fast, crashing down on Lucci and Kaku, who were slightly sluggish due to their change of direction!

"Not good!" Kaku only had time to roar before he crossed his arms above his head, and his muscles instantly expanded and hardened: "Iron Block!"

Lucci instantly transformed into a half-orc form, displaying leopard-man features. His arms, covered in animal fur, were crossed in a defensive stance as he fully activated the iron block.

boom!boom!

Two muffled, heart-stopping explosions rang out almost simultaneously!

Mosen's fist slammed into Lucci and Kaku like a heavy hammer.

A sharp, teeth-grinding sound of bone cracking faintly rang out.

"Ugh!!!"

Lucci and Kaku felt an irresistible, terrifying force coming from their arms. Their proud "Iron Body" defense and the tough bodies made by their Zoan-type Devil Fruits were no match for these iron fists!

The arms that were blocking the shot were in excruciating pain; the bones were cracked and almost broke!

With unparalleled strength and solidified Armament Haki, Morsen's fists were like two high-speed trains speeding across the sea.

Lucci and Kaku were hit head-on and slammed to the ground without any chance to resist!

Boom!!!

The ground shook violently, and dust billowed into the sky. Two large, human-shaped craters with spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the hard ground of the abandoned shipyard.

Chapter 144, A Devastating Battle, Ability Collection!

puff!

Lucci and Kaku coughed up blood almost simultaneously, as if their internal organs had shifted.

They struggled to their feet from the bottom of the pit, their suits tattered and torn, their exposed skin covered in abrasions and bruises, and blood constantly trickling from the corners of their mouths, looking utterly wretched.

What alarmed them even more was that in just one exchange, the opponent's terrifying Armament Haki intensity and pure power had completely overwhelmed them!

What the hell did this thing eat to grow up like this? How can it be so strong? If you convert that to Dao power, they wouldn't even dare to imagine how high it would be!

Mosen landed lightly on the ground, standing beside the two deep pits. He glanced indifferently at the two men whose breathing was disordered, his voice filled with undisguised sarcasm: "You so-called elites of CP9 are nothing special, not even having fully mastered Armament Haki."

"You're nowhere near as good as Alabasta's Fox Hunt team. I really don't know where you got the courage to lay a hand on my crew."

"Roar!!!"

"Moo!!!"

Morsen's taunts completely ignited Lucci and Kaku's fury and savagery! It was an utter disgrace!

Lucci, who has always been hailed as the strongest member of CP9 in eight hundred years, has never been so slighted before!

Although Kaku didn't receive the same treatment as Lucci, he was still an elite agent, so how could he give up so easily?

Suddenly, two fierce auras erupted from the deep pit!

Lucci's body swelled further, his muscles bulging like granite blocks, his human skin completely covered by yellow and black fur, his hands transformed into claws, a spotted leopard tail swung behind him, and he let out a low, murderous roar.

Zoan-type Cat-Cat Fruit, Leopard Mode, Humanoid Type!

Kaku also underwent changes, becoming taller and longer, with an abnormally elongated neck, thicker and more powerful limbs, and a nose that continued to grow longer.

Zoan-type Gyro-Gyro Fruit, Giraffe Form, Humanoid Form!

Their eyes gleamed with a ferocious, beast-like light as they fixed their gazes on Mosen at the edge of the pit, their eyes brimming with intense fighting spirit and killing intent.

They won't give up easily! The battle has only just begun!

“I’ll kill you!” Lucci roared in a low voice.

Before he could finish speaking, the ground beneath his feet exploded with a deafening roar, and his figure vanished instantly, leaving only a rapidly spreading ripple of smoke and dust in his wake.

This is the ultimate, terrifying speed he achieved by combining the explosive power of his shave and leopard forms.

Almost at the same moment, Kaku also moved. His super-long limbs in his giraffe form gave him a unique attack range and rhythm.

He leaped like a real giraffe, his massive body charging at Morsen from the side with an agility that belied his size.

At the same time, its long neck, like a battering ram, slammed directly into Mosen's waist and abdomen!

"The Fierce Bamboo Forest!"

The two of them, one in front and one behind, moved swiftly and fiercely, cooperating perfectly and sealing off Mo Sen's space to dodge.

Faced with the fierce attack from the two, Mo Sen merely raised his hand slightly.

hum!

A strange, transparent ripple spread out from Mosen's center.

Lu Qi's leopard claws, capable of tearing through steel, came to a sudden stop not far from Mo Sen, as if he had hit an invisible membrane. His speed decreased drastically, and his incomparably sharp claws could not advance even an inch further!
