HxH in One Piece World - Chapter 281

[Chapter 127 The variability of shadow fruits]

Blood dripped down from the cut on the cheek.

Moria’s eyes became extremely terrifying in an instant.

“Hehehe…”

The signature laughter spread around, alarming many lives in the shadows.

“Bacardi Maud, your shadow… I’m going to make a decision!”

Moria stretched out her hands and opened her big mouth full of sharp teeth.

His face and even his eyes were filled with a sense of tyranny mixed with a cold aura.

he knows.

The newcomer in front of him is very unusual.

After entering the great channel, not only has the bounty skyrocketed, but the route that many people fear is nothing.

Some time ago, it was clearly on that route, and then suddenly appeared on another route, and now he even came to the place where he was – the Devil’s Triangle.

How?

Moriah was not interested in going deeper.

He admits that Maud is the strongest newcomer he has encountered in the nine years of dormancy since his return from the new world.

But so what?

During these years of dormant in the Devil’s Triangle, there have been countless rookie pirates punished by him.

What he likes to see the most is the miserable appearance of those newcomers when their dreams and goals are shattered when they are only one step away from the terminal island in the first half of the great route!

“Hehehe…”

Moria stared at Maud with bloodshot eyes.

The group of bats transformed from the shadows first dispersed, and then rushed towards Maud from all directions.

“Intelligence is intelligence, and some information can only be verified in actual combat…”

Maud’s knowledge is always on.

The bats that came from all around were all within his [vision].

“First of all…” A

gleam of light flashed in Maud’s eyes, and he pressed a lead bullet with a different color than the conventional one into the barrel of Dark Crow, and immediately put away the flintlock gun, holding Chidori in front of him.

A vaguely bloody aura swayed away from Maud’s feet.

Gun. Daisy.

Maud’s knife-wielding arm suddenly bent backwards, like clockwork.

However, the long knife was used as a foil sword, and the flying Maimang sword energy was pierced in all directions at super high speed, like a blooming white daisy.

This move depends on the sword skills of the mad woman named Aibe in Mad Hat Town.

The difference is that Abe can’t knock the stab out, but Maud can.

The streaks of ray-like sword energy were like bullets, smashing the shadow bats that came flying into pieces.

“The strength is average, is it because the shadows are scattered?”

Compared to the pitch-black spear that stabbed out of the shadows just now, these bats are vulnerable.

However, the mechanism of shadow is similar to that of elementalization, and it can freely change its form after leaving the body.

This also means that no matter how much damage the shadow that leaves the body suffers, as long as it can freely shape the shape of the body before returning, it will not cause any damage to the body.

In other words, pouring the attack on the shadow is a waste of energy, unless…

“Try it with the armed color…”

Maud’s thoughts moved, and after smashing the group of bats, he rushed straight to Moria.

Moria looked coldly at Maud who rushed over.

“Shadow Mage.”

The scattered shadow returned to Moria at the speed of light, and then formed a three-dimensional shadow with the same body shape and appearance.

“Hehehe…”

Moria stood behind the shadow clone without any substantial movement from beginning to end.

It’s not that he thinks that shadow alone can take down Maud, it’s that his style has always been like this.

No matter in battle or in daily life, he always relies on others, relying on shadows…

This kind of influence and expression brought about by personality is nothing in daily life.

But if it is placed in battle, it is undoubtedly giving up part of its own advantages.

The Shadow Mage grinned and took a big step towards Maud who charged with a knife.

Without any fancy skills, the Shadow Mage raised his hands and slapped Maud’s head from top to bottom.

That speed is not fast, not only can Maud react, but he can easily pass the shadow mage and go straight to Moria, which is not far away.

But he didn’t do it because he knew that Moriah had the ability to switch positions with the Shadow Mage at any time.

Looking at the palm that fell down calmly, Maud released his armed color and wrapped himself around the Chidori sword.

Not far away, Moria’s eyes narrowed.

With just one glance, he saw that Maud’s armament color proficiency was very high.

This kind of ability to smash the streets in the new world is not common in the first half of the great fairway, let alone a newcomer.

Even if there is, Moria has never seen such superb domineering skills in a newcomer.

call out–!

Maud slashed out with one knife, easily cutting off the hands that the Shadow Mage slapped.

He should have cut off the Shadow Mage’s legs again, but a red light flashed in Maud’s eyes, and he used a silent step in an instant, his figure disappeared in the wind, and in the next instant, he retreated to ten meters away.

At this moment, the pitch-black arms that he cut off turned into a black net in mid-air, covering his original position.

“Heh…”

Looking at the empty black net, Maud, who had withdrawn in time, chuckled lightly.

The knife just now looked like it had cut off the Shadow Mage’s arms, but it was actually the Shadow Mage who cut off both arms ahead of time before the slash, so as to make room for the slash to pass through.

This kind of operation is the most common technique used by people with natural abilities to evade armed attacks.

It’s not surprising that Shadow, whose ability mechanism is similar to the nature department, can do this.

But it also conveys a message to Maud…

that is, the armed attack will damage the shadow, or, in other words, can curb the shadow’s ability to recover and shape freely.

If the knife just now really cut off the Shadow Mage’s arms.

Then, when the injured Shadow Mage returns to Moriah, the damage will be reflected back to Moriah.

With this idea, Maude considered another possibility.

Even if Moriah breaks both arms, he can reconnect his arms by “correcting” his own shadow, and it does not rule out the possibility of growing his arms again.

I just don’t know if Moria’s mastery of abilities has reached such an unbelievable level just thinking about it.

“Shadow fruit…” In the

short contact, Maud had to admit that the shadow fruit has the characteristics of change and flexibility, and its upper limit is not weak.

Instead of using it to muffle the zombie army with many flaws, it is better to honestly improve the ability and effect of the shadow fruit in actual combat.

It can only be said that Moria went the wrong way and wasted her youth in vain.

Maud restrained his thoughts, stared calmly at the Shadow Mage who took back the black net and reshaped, and slowly stretched out his left hand to his side.

Bailey, who was thrown by Maud as a hidden weapon not long ago, UU reading www.sonicmtl.

com ran back quietly at this moment, then jumped lightly, towards Maud.

His body transformed into a long knife in mid-air, and the handle of the knife was aimed at Maud’s outstretched left hand.

It looked as if the long knife flew back to Maud’s hands autonomously.

Maud, holding a pair of knives, rushed to the Shadow Mage again.

After confirming that the armed color can work on the shadow, he can focus all his attention on attacking the shadow.

Not far away, Moria snorted coldly.

He has punished countless pirates in the Devil’s Triangle, but only Maud made him feel threatened, which made him very uncomfortable.

“Just a suitable moment.”

Moria’s cold eyes glanced at Maud’s shadow.

Cut shadows.

The battle can be over in an instant.
