Grand Line’s Lord Of Shadows

Chapter 26: Pirate Empress



With no more lingering intention after Moria appears, Gion immediately boarded the ship with her subordinate and left.

The tense atmosphere between the two parties suddenly dissipated.

The conflict between the two is somewhat anticlimactic.

"Luke-sama..."

Seeing that Marine was not entangling them, and just left.

Brook and the others all looked at Luke.

"Adjust the course and continue to Jaya Island!" Luke said nonchalantly.

And Moria, who had just shown up, also came to his side.

"Understood!"

Once the zombies got the order, they started to get busy.

"Luke-sama..."

Brook came to Luke.

He pointed at Moria and then at Luke's shadow, full of doubts: "Your shadow..."

Let the shadow escape from itself and transform into Moria.

Logically speaking, there should be no shadows under Luke's feet.

But there was clearly a shadow under Luke's feet just now.

"It's just a false shadow. It's easy for me to do this!"

The corners of Luke's mouth rose.

As he said that, in the astonished eyes of Perona and others.

The shadow under his feet disappeared.

"As expected of Luke-sama!"

"I still got a long way to go!"

Luke was not complacent.

The ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit is by no means limited to this.

There is definitely not just one shadow that a person with Shadow-Shadow Fruit can control.

He has been trying to develop the ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit in depth.

He's trying to see if he can generate a second, third, or even more shadows to fight.

But it hasn't been successful yet.

He can only create a fake shadow to confuse the enemies when the Shadow Clone breaks away from him.

But Luke was not in a hurry.

This is already a big improvement.

He believes that if he develops his devil fruit abilities more, he may be able to succeed.

He might even be able to use his own shadow to create the highest-level homies, just like Big Mom.

Letting his shadow truly split and build the strongest zombie.

"Huh... I thought we were going to fight!"

At the same time, at the warship that was slowly leaving.

Looking at the exaggeratedly large Thriller Bark that was drifting away.

The Marines, who were a little nervous and didn't dare to be careless at all, breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, what they have to face is the Warlords of the Sea, who can stand on par with Marine Headquarters and even compete with the big pirates in the New World, rather than some minor characters.

"Vice Admiral Gion, I thought you would really take action!"

Hina looked deeply at Gion.

"I'm not that stupid yet..."

Gion shrugged, then she stared in the direction of the Thriller Bark and whispered softly: "However, the young vice-captain recruited by Moria is not simple!"

"No matter how powerful he is, he can't be compared to you, an Admiral candidate, right?"

Thinking back to that young man, Hina was noncommittal.

She admitted that the other party was extraordinary and worthy of being the vice-captain of the Netherworld Pirate.

But Hina knows better how powerful this Marine flower really is.

She is the leading swordsman in Marine Headquarters, and her strength is unfathomable.

A little-known young swordsman.

It's not worthy of the other party's attention at all.

"No, I don't mean the strength..."

Gion shook her head and said bluntly: "In addition to the fearless fighting spirit, I saw in his eyes a burning ambition..."

"You mean?"

Hina blinked her eyes a few times and was a little stunned.

"He is definitely not a guy who wants to be subordinate to others. Maybe Moria will shoot himself in the foot!" Gion said nonchalantly as she stared at the Thriller Bark that was getting further and further away.

"Just watch!"

On the first half of the Grand Line, adjacent to the edge of South Blue's Calm Belt.

On a dilapidated pirate ship full of battle traces, there's a bunch of stone statues on the deck.

Surprisingly, they all looked ugly.

On the opposite side is an ancient pirate ship that looks like a movable palace and is pulled by two giant sea snakes.

Above, the flag of the Kuja Pirates hangs impressively and flutters in the wind.

A group of female warriors dressed coolly are constantly transporting objects on their ship.

These are their trophies.

"Snake Princess's charm is indeed unmatched by anyone!"

"With just a few moves, these men were all easily petrified..."

A female warrior was sighing on the side.

"Of course, no one can ignore my sister's beauty!"

A fat and strong female warrior with long orange hair crossed her arms and said proudly.

"Sister, we have gained a lot just after this expedition..."

And on the side.

A female warrior with an exaggeratedly large head and long green hair said to the graceful figure in front of her: "Our luck is really good!"

"Really…"

The beautiful woman nodded gently.

She has long black hair that falls to her waist and wears a red cheongsam, which perfectly outlines her figure.

Next to her, there is a large red and white python hovering, adding a bit of indescribable wild beauty.

Her body is invisibly exuding unimaginable temptation, making people feel fascinated and can't bear to look away.

"Ran, are you collecting newspapers again?"

She noticed a female soldier who just passed by, holding a large stack of newspapers. 

Sandersonia, who was following Boa Hancock, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"There is no way; this is the task given by Elder Nyon!"

The young female warrior with short hair and a good figure said helplessly: "Our Island of Women is in the Calm Belt. The News Coo doesn't pass there, and the news is blocked... So Elder Nyon wants me to bring as many newspapers as possible whenever we go on an expedition!"

"Fortunately, these pirates have the habit of collecting newspapers, so this saves me a lot of trouble!"

"Are not these newspapers expired?"

Marigold glanced at it and noticed that the date above seemed to be two months ago.

"Elder Nyon said, even the expired ones..."

Ran said with a helpless smile.

She glanced at the expired newspaper at the top and sighed: "But it's really incredible..."

"More than two months ago, a big incident related to the World Government seemed to have happened!"

"The Enies Lobby, which is said to have never been breached in eight hundred years, has a large commotion due to a traitor named Obask Luke!"

"Oh?"

Hearing those words, the two sisters, Sandersonia and Marigold's pupil, couldn't help but shrink: "Obask Luke?"

Boa Hancock, who was about to return to the cabin, suddenly turned her head: "What did you say? Who?"

"Obask Luke... I heard that he was a member of Cipher Pol Number 9 directly under the World Government. For some reason, he suddenly killed his boss, caused a scene in Enies Lobby, and then defected!"

Ran was a little surprised to see Snake Princess, who had never cared about the outside world, reacting so strongly.

However, she still pulled out the somewhat worn newspaper.

She gestured to Boa Hancock and others: "Here, he is surprisingly young. I heard that he is only seventeen years old, and the World Government has offered a bounty of 200 million Belly for him..."

On the front page, a young and handsome teenager with blood-stained hands and cold eyes stood proudly in the damaged building.

There were corpses of world government personnel and Marines lying around him.

"It's him…"
