------------------
In front of a somewhat eerie castle, countless zombies were trembling in fear. Moria vomited blood from his mouth. On his body, there was a bone-deep wound, and blood was oozing out. He fell there on one knee, trying hard to hold on without falling down.
"Originally, even if I could have killed you, it would have still taken some effort…" Ren turned around. Looking at the disbelieving Moria, who seemed to be full of anger and unwillingness, Ren said calmly: "But you have been comfortable for too long. Your reaction ability is even worse than I thought!"
"Having had your backbone broken by Kaido and losing your main crew, you have stayed in the position of the Seven Warlords of the Sea for more than ten years, enjoying the false glory and the adulation of your subordinates with peace of mind…"
"Your strength, that should have been great, has been completely wasted. You are no longer the super pirate you once were!" He was filled with disappointment. The strength of Gekko Moria has degenerated to a rather exaggerated level.
Regardless of whether it is just relying on the ability of his Shadow-Shadow Fruit and the power brought by his huge size, he can barely maintain a good fighting power. When he didn't even have time to use his devil fruit's ability, he couldn't stop his tyrannical-level swordsmanship.
"Kaido?" Moria's expression changed drastically. Shocked and angry, he couldn't help but stare at Ren fiercely. With a ferocious face, he gritted his teeth: "Asshole…"
How high-spirited was he once? Leading his reliable subordinates, he broke into the New World all the way to Wanokuni. In order to seize territory, he started a fight with the Beasts Pirates but now, a single man completely took away everything and destroyed his confidence.
Overnight, all his subordinates were lost. He became a walking zombie without a soul, living in the world, digging graves everywhere, stealing bodies and snatching shadows. He became committed to using the ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit to create an undead zombie army. His purpose was to one day accumulate enough strength to take revenge on the man who caused him great humiliation and pain.
"Hateful!" Thinking back to Kaido, the man whom he hated and feared in his heart, Gekko Moria felt a little angry: "Kaido! I will never forgive that guy!"
"How about it, do you want to cooperate with me?" Ren looked at Moria: "I am now the fourth All Star of the Beasts Pirates! Maybe, one day, your goal will be achieved!"
"Kishishishi, is this the fourth All Star of Beasts Pirates? You are such an ambitious guy, you are actually willing to be subordinate to others…" Moria held on to his injuries and smiled strangely. Of course he could understand what Ren said.
How could such a man succumb to Kaido so easily? But the next moment, Moria's eyes became bloodshot, and he glared at Ren fiercely: "I will kill you… You killed Absalom!"
"If you insist on worrying about this, there is nothing I can do about it..." Ren didn't mean to over-stimulate Moria, he just said lightly: "When he had thoughts that he shouldn't have had, his end was already doomed! This is the world of pirates!" He stared at Moria. A flash of scarlet flashed in his eyes: "My patience is limited, tell me your answer…"
"Huh… Huh…" Moria was so weak that he couldn't help but gasp for breath. His face was covered with blood, and he was smiling strangely: "Kishishishi, my answer is… Ahh! "
With a touch of cold light, in an instant, the atmosphere was torn apart. A bloody head flew up. Shaking the blood on his sword, Ren said calmly with no expression on his face: "That's such a shame!"
With that Observation Haki that could foresee his future, whatever the other party wants to do, there was no way to skip his prediction. The moment he "saw" Moria use his devil fruit ability to exchange places with a shadow that had already fled far away, trying to escape from him, he was cruel and unceremonious.
"Lord Moria…"
"No! The shadow is leaving…"
"Ah… Ah…" For a while, countless zombies screamed in pain. Shadow after shadow flew directly from them and rushed in all directions.
"Hey, Master Ren…" Oceanus protested dissatisfied: "Don't make it so bloody… How can I recycle this!"
"Sorry, I can only aggrieve you a little!" Sheathing his sword, Ren smiled and said without sincerity. For failing to recruit Gekko Moria, he didn't feel disappointed. Even if he didn't kill Absalom, such a guy would not easily succumb to him because of his hatred for Kaido.
There is really no need to regret anything. Regardless of Oceanus's grimace and curse, Moria's body was handed over to him for disposal. Ren pointed at the castle, chuckled and said to Robin and Pato: "Let's go meet our new companion!"
"Hollow-Hollow Fruit?" Robin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "It's a very interesting ability!"
"Is it the girl who was flying in the air just now?"
"Don't underestimate her ability." Ren shrugged: "Those ghosts are called negative hollows. Physical attacks are ineffective on them. As long as they pass through your body, they can instantly make you have negative thoughts and make you lose your fighting spirit!"
"Either you have to be very negative to be able to block that ability. Either you can only avoid it and target her real body!"
As he said that, Ren's eyes narrowed. His right hand, make a pistol shape, aiming at the forest dozens of meters away. In an instant, a crimson fire shot out of the air like a bullet.
A scream sounded. The doctor of the Moria Pirates, Dr. Hogback, who was sneaking around and trying to leave the castle quietly, was instantly pierced by a flaming bullet. He was engulfed in fire and was completely reduced to ashes in an instant.
Not long after, in a hall an unconscious Perona was instantly woken up by being splashed with cold water. She was horrified to find that the person standing in front of her was the intruder she saw just now.
"I advise you not to try to use the power of the Hollow-Hollow fruit…" A ball of flame appeared on Ren's right hand: "Otherwise, you can try to see which one is faster, my fire or your ghosts…"
A rolling heat wave spreaded across the air and rushed towards Perona, making her unbearably hot. She felt a little shocked.
"I surrender, don't kill me…" Looking at the "demon"-like man in front of her, Perona turned pale. He gave up the resistance in a hurry and was frightened.
"I have news for you, Moria has been killed by us." Looking at her, Robin, who was following Ren, said directly.
"What?" Perona's face turned pale. Along with the fear, sadness came from it. She couldn't help but burst out crying, tears streaming down my face. She has been following Moria since she was a child.
Although the other party was interested in her devil fruit ability but no matter what, Moria was still very nice to her. She heard that he had been killed. Naturally, she felt a little sad.
"Okay, let's stop crying here! You should be very clear about the rules of pirates. The winner gets everything." Ren crossed his arms. Looking at the heartbroken Perona, he smiled and asked directly: "Then, tell me your answer. Do you want to follow them on the road to afterlife? Or choose to join us?"
"I would like to join you!" Perona was very timid. Her tears stopped instantly and she blurted it out without hesitation.
'It's not that I'm spineless, it's just that they are just too strong. I'm still so young and don't want to die so early.'
