Grand Line’s Lord Of Shadows

"Hiss~hiss~hiss~, probably because the master of this shadow is too powerful!"

On the training ground, looking at Luke, who had just absorbed the shadow of a giant warrior and directly entered the Nightmare Form, Hogback said with a strange smile: "After all, that is the shadow of the leader of the Giant Warrior Pirates, not to mention the strongest warrior of the giant clan, but it should be not far off, right?"

Wyper, Brook, Van Augur, and others nodded.

In the previous battle, the strength shown by Dorry and Brogy was obvious to all.

It can be said that it was impressive.

"Even if it's just a single shadow and I am a Shadow-Shadow Fruit user... I can't sustain it for less than half an hour?"

Luke relaxed slightly: "But this is much better than directly absorbing a large number of  shadows!"

Stuff the plundered shadow into the body of a living person.

There will be a huge rejection reaction, and he, the Shadow-Shadow Fruit user, is no exception.

Although he can directly stuff a large number of shadows into his own body.

It can make one's own strength skyrocket in all directions in a short period of time.

But time is limited.

The more shadows are absorbed.

Not only are the restrictions greater, they are also difficult to control.

And the shadows of giants like Dorry and Brogy.

The quality is naturally far from comparable to those of low-level pirates.

One of them can rival five hundred ordinary shadows, and it is relatively easy to control and will not affect him during the battle.

And for him, if he just absorbs the two shadows into his body to enhance his own combat power, the rejection reaction will not be that big.

In contrast, it is undoubtedly more cost-effective.

He can consider bringing them with him as a trump card, just in case.

Anyway, the current underground prison on the Thriller Bark is almost saturated.

Plus, the next beast army and flying troops.

Overall, the number of zombie legions is almost enough.

In a short period of time, there is no need to capture more prisoners.

"However, it should be enough..."

Ignoring Hogback and others.

He digested the huge amount of information and closed his eyes.

But Luke didn't read all of Dorry's mixed memories.

A giant's long life of hundreds of years would probably burst his head.

So, he only selectively extracted memories related to Haki, the giants' combat skills, etc.

After a while, Luke opened his eyes.

A huge shadow broke away from his body and continued to expand.

His whole body was like a deflated balloon, and he quickly returned to his original state.

Holding on to the shadow that just escaped.

He compresses it into a shadow ball the size of a walnut and prevents it from returning to Dorry.

"Come again!" Luke gritted his teeth.

He once again absorbed Brogy's shadow into his body.

In an instant, he changed again and entered the nightmare form.

His black hair stood up, and his skin color turned blue.

His body shape has become extremely exaggerated.

The muscles swelled, and the veins popped out.

Then, he closed his eyes once again.

Through the ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, he continues to selectively extract Brogy's memories…

Less than half an hour.

Luke could no longer hold on and returned to his original state.

"Haaa..."

He couldn't help but breathe heavily.

At this moment, he was extremely exhausted.

Not only did he have to bear the rejection caused by the shadow, but also the huge memory, which gave his brain a splitting headache.

Even if he selectively read the extracted memories, it far exceeds the information obtained from the shadows of dead people such as Ryuma and Captain John.

After all, the shadow of a dead person only carries a part of the owner's deeper memories during their lifetime.

"Although I am a little tired, I have gained a lot!" Luke showed a satisfied smile.

Although the Giants' skills in using Haki are a bit rough, they are not without their own uniqueness.

In particular, techniques like Hakoku Sovereignty were specially developed for the giants' huge size.

Over the long years, generations of giants have continuously tried and improved.

He benefited a lot.

"Hoo… hoo..."

That afternoon.

A beast of varying sizes was tied up and placed in the open space outside the training ground.

There were some dead and struggling dinosaurs.

The number is probably no less than five hundred.

The largest among them is the brachiosaurus.

"Luke-sama, there are almost more than three hundred beasts like Velociraptor, Triceratops, Saber-toothed Tiger, Brachiosaurus..." A zombie in charge of statistics came forward and reported: "As for the pterosaurs, there are almost two hundred dinosaurs!"

"Um-"

Luke nodded.

The black shadows beneath his feet surged and turned into countless tentacles and rushed out directly.

In the blink of an eye, the dinosaurs that were captured alive were penetrated by the shadow tentacles, and they fell there, moaning one after another.

"It's better to save yourself some trouble and get it done in one go!"

Scanning the carcasses of dinosaurs present.

Luke directly took out a stack of shadows from his arms.

A flash of red light flashed in his eyes, and he directly activated the ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit.

"Swiss..." Black tentacles danced, bringing up these shadows toward the carcasses of dinosaurs, respectively.

"Is this okay?"

Brook's eyes widened.

"Hundreds of zombies were created at once; that's amazing!" Perona was stunned and speechless.

In comparison, Moria-sama, whom she regarded as her adoptive father, was simply not comparable.

"Hiss~hiss~hiss~, As expected of Luke-sama, that guy, Gecko Moria, is really inferior!" Hogback was very excited.

The more amazing Luke's performance is, doesn't it mean that his choice is more correct?

"In my name, I will grant you new life. You will forget the past, be loyal to me, and never betray!" 

Without any delay, Luke directly made a contract with these shadows.

As expected, the bound shadows stopped struggling and nodded dully.

Obviously, the contract was established.

"Swipe..." the next moment.

Shadows that no longer struggle were stuffed into the corpses of those beasts.

"Roar…!!"

Soon-

A horrifying scene happened.

Saber-toothed tigers, mammoths, velociraptors, triceratops, tyrannosaurus rex, brachiosaurus, pterosaurs, etc. that should have lost their breath of life…

These extremely ferocious dinosaurs started to move one after another.

They all knelt on the ground and lowered their heads towards Luke.

"Master!!"
