Chapter 84: Shadow! Shadow!

Looking at the naval base in the distance, there are densely packed naval stations. It seems that the navy takes this mission of escorting pirates quite seriously.

The leader was Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel, who led the navy to greet them inside the base.

"Hehehehe~"

"It's really rare, Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel."

"It seems that your navy still attaches great importance to this old man!"

Moria looked at Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel and said.

"Of course, this is a big pirate with a bounty of 460 million beli!"

"It's all right to pay so much attention to it. After so many years, we finally caught it."

Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel said,

"On your part, I didn't think you could catch him."

"It's incredible!"

"On behalf of the Navy, I would like to thank Mr. Moria!"

After saying that, he stretched out his right hand, intending to shake hands with Moria.

Seeing Flying Squirrel's gentle appearance, Moriah couldn't help but complain, why is Flying Squirrel a representative of the navy's radical faction? How could he be so vicious like this? He promised to show no mercy to the pirates?

Sure enough, although the plot is important, you can't be completely superstitious!

Moria looked at the sincerity of the other party. Out of courtesy, Moria also extended his right hand. In this way, the navy and the pirates held hands tightly together under the gaze of everyone.

The next day, a photo of Moria and Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel shaking hands made headlines.

Moria looked at the newspaper and was bragging about himself. At the same time, the World Government said that it would speed up the advancement of the Shichibukai system. I couldn't help but lament that the World Government was reporting on itself as a model for the Shichibukai.

It seems that the World Government has also felt the pressure and is eager to divide the pirate forces.

No matter what, Moria still made a profit this time. After confirming the pirates sent by Moria, Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel did not push back and happily gave Moria the Sea Tower Stone and weapons he needed. , Adam treasure tree and other material handover. Moria also checked it, and there was indeed no fraud. Everything was very good.

Sailing on the sea, Moria sat on the bow, feeling the breath of the sea, and trying to gather the shadow energy around him.

Moria was fully aware of the situation and tried to feel the various shadows in the air. In Moria's perception, shadows can be large or small, strong or weak, like insects, small crabs and other small animals. Moria can now pull out the shadow directly from his body and let the shadow obey him. The command.

This is a very wonderful state. The shadow is independent of the body and no longer has any connection with the original body. When the body dies, the shadow can exist independently, because this shadow is completely dependent on Moria's fruit ability to exist. of. It can be said that although Moria was able to separate the shadow from the body before, there was still a close connection between the two. Once the body dies, so does the shadow. But this kind is completely different. It has completely cut off the connection with the original body and belongs to Moria alone.

Moria sat on the bow of the boat, watching the fight between the two little crabs with great interest. The two little crabs each waved their own small pincers, and they went back and forth without giving in at all.

One of them is a shadow crab created by Moria using his Devil Fruit ability, and the other one is a common small green crab on the sea. It can be seen that the little blue crabs are very wary and curious about this dark crab. After living in the sea for so long, this is the first time they have seen a crab with a dark body. They wave their pincers and attack Moria's crab. past.

However, there is a size difference after all. Moria's crab is still smaller than this little green crab, and its strength is naturally smaller. It is about to be unable to support it. This dark crab turns into a ball. The black shadow circled behind the little blue crab. Before he could react, Moria's crab pinched off one of the blue crab's legs.

The little blue crab, who had never seen such a weird thing before, was frightened. In addition, one of its crab legs had been clipped off, so he jumped into the sea to escape.

Yes, the shadows created by Moria can transform into shadows and real objects. Using the characteristics of shadows, they can gain the upper hand in battle and defeat their opponents. And in a sense, the shadow created by Moria in this way is immortal. As long as Moria can continue to provide energy, even if it is beaten to ashes, as long as Moria uses the fruit ability, it can recover.

Moria speculated that the reason why the zombies created by Moria in the original work could not be killed was because of the shadow.

But whether it is creating such a shadow, using it to fight, or restoring it to its original state, all actions and energy of the shadow come from Moria. How powerful this shadow can be, in the final analysis, still depends on Moria's own strength and physical strength.

Moria looked at the shadow crab in his hand and released the fruit's ability. The shadow automatically decomposed and dissipated between heaven and earth. As for why it didn't return to its original body, it was because the original crab, after extracting its shadow, had been exposed to the sun and had already turned into ashes.

However, it is still early for Moria to use this skill in combat! Currently, Moria's Devil Fruit ability can only affect some small animals, and it cannot affect pirates for the time being.

But in any case, this is already a big progress. I believe that the day of establishing your own shadow army will not be too far away.

"boom!"

"Captain, an unknown pirate ship has launched an attack on us."

A crew member came to report.

"Then let's deal with it!"

Moria replied indifferently.

"Yes!"

Moria's ship began to fight back.

This should be a new pirate group that has just entered the Grand Line and knows nothing, or it is a super rookie who has already gained a certain reputation and is very confident, and wants to use Moria's reputation to fulfill himself.

But looking at the one-sided battle, Moria is more convinced that this is a new pirate group that knows nothing, although the number of the other side is not small.

In fact, Moria's men can solve such a small matter by themselves without asking for instructions. But Moria hopes that his men will be more disciplined and not be free and undisciplined like before, although this is the case for most pirate groups. Moria formulated a series of rules and implemented them on the ship.

This is one rule. If you want to start a battle, you must first ask for instructions from the person in charge on the ship at that time. If the person in charge is not there, you will contact your superiors. If you can't contact them, the highest-ranking person on the ship will automatically become the person in charge and command the battle. If you fight privately without asking for instructions, even if you succeed, you will be punished. If you ask for instructions, even if you fail, you will not be blamed.

Doing this way, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. At least, under the organized situation, the team's combat strength is stronger. Moreover, this is also very helpful for Moria to control his subordinates. At least it will not happen that his subordinates have done something that he does not know.

"Captain, Harvey reports to you the results of this battle!"

Moria is listening to his subordinates reporting the results of this battle.

This Harvey was brought back by Moria from the New World. He is quite strong and has a certain talent for command. Therefore, Moria transferred him from the first team to the second team and let him command a team. Moreover, in the previous battle, he served as the commander of the second artillery position and sank and captured many pirates. And this time, Moria also took him with him to accompany him to the Drum Kingdom.

Listening to Harvey's description of the battle process, how to use his own advantages, give full play to his three-stage shooting method and artillery advantages, and finally defeat this pirate group.

"During the battle, although the enemy had slightly more people than us, we were in an absolute advantage. However, due to the lack of coordination, ten members were injured, two of them seriously!"

"This battle still shows that some areas are not good enough, and some areas need to be continuously improved!"

"If you want to gain, kill the enemy..."
