Transmission versus swapping!

Wow! So many clones!

"So Brigadier General Vidal can also create clones?"

"Idiot, didn't the clones appear once before? There are just more this time."

"Also, you must call him Lord Vidal! Lord, do you understand? He's a disciple of Marine Admiral Sengoku, not just any ordinary Commodore!"

The atmosphere in all districts of Sabaody was electric as they watched the four identical Vidals on the big screen. People thought the battle was incredibly exciting, with wave after wave of dazzling moves.

During high-speed, intense battles, most people can't see anything clearly; the screen is filled with green lights and black shadows crashing around.

Actually, this is the normal phenomenon. A battle between Vidal and Moria of this caliber is not something that ordinary people can see. It is only when they stand still and use their moves like this that we can see a little bit of it.

Moria also sensed something was wrong; he seemed to have guessed Vidal's intention in creating so many Wood Clones.

"Superior!"

As expected, at Vidal's command, two of his Wood Clones used Geppo to rush towards the Doppelman, then coldly glanced at Moria.

"Come on, round two!"

[Whoosh! Whoosh!]

As soon as he finished speaking, the two Vidals transformed into green afterimages and shot out. The Vidal on the left, who was faster, approached first. His right fist, Coating green armor and Haki, shattered the air, sending an invisible shockwave through the distance.

This is another way to use Armament Haki Emission!

"Shadow Demon Slash!"

After a series of fierce battles, Moria realized that he couldn't defeat Vidal head-on, but he still chose to swing his long sword straight at him.

He knew he was at a disadvantage in terms of speed, and as for dodging, it was basically useless against Observation Haki.

He was well aware of this even though he had not yet Awakening his Observation Haki.

If that's the case, then why fear a single touch?

At this moment, Moria was full of vigor and was a true hero of the West Blue, far surpassing him thirty years later!

[Duang--]

The jet-black longsword, shrouded in shadow and exuding an aura of Haki, slashed through the invisible impact with overwhelming force. Moria, his fierce gaze fixed on the green fist, struck heavily.

Unfortunately, although he was brave and determined enough, it wasn't enough to close the gap in strength with Vidal. He couldn't even last two breaths before he was thrown back.

At the same time, the expressionless Wood Clone appeared beside him, and taking advantage of his loss of balance, quickly reached out with both hands.

"Wood Killing Bind!"

The next moment, its arms turned into wood and shot forward, the bent shape clearly indicating that it was going to bind Moria.

But Moria was no ordinary person. He immediately used his Shadow Warrior to switch places with the Doppelman in the distance. Then, the Doppelman scattered into countless swarms of bats to avoid being Coating the wooden strips.

On the other side, as soon as Moria switched positions, the arms of his two Wood Clones, one in front and one behind, also turned into wooden shapes.

"Burst Gun Tree!"

"Giant Wood Pillar!"

A dozen or so sharp wooden spears, each as thick as an arm, emerged from the Wood Clone behind him, while the Wood Clone in front of him extended from his chest to his arms into a giant wooden pillar that crashed outwards.

"Ugh, get out of my way!"

Moria screamed and brandished his Shadow Blade, cutting off all the incoming attacks in succession, but he also experienced the same feelings that Vidal had had before.

On the other side, Vidal also found the Doppelman's transformation into a swarm of bats quite troublesome.

Even if this thing is bound with wood, Moria can switch positions at any time and break free with a slash. In addition, given its ability to split at any time, catching it is not an easy task.

However, creating these three clones wasn't entirely useless. At least Moria could no longer surround him. He could only split into two points and switch positions at any time. But no matter where he teleported to, he would still have to face the combined attack of two Vidals!

In an instant, above the forest and sea, above the heads of the Apis Divine Bull and Yifuli, two dark figures and four green lights chased each other, and the intensity of the battle escalated once again.

This time, however, it was Vidal who was chasing Moria!

"Damn it! How come these things are like Doppelman, I can't break them no matter how I hit them?" Moria, in the midst of the high-speed battle, screamed in exasperation when he saw his Wood Clone, which he had just cut in half, regenerate.

He felt like he was fighting two Logia-type Logia users who were masters of the Six Powers!

These two Wood Clones not only know various wood-based techniques, but can also use physical techniques such as Geppo, Shave, Shigan, and Rankyaku. Although their power is not very strong without the enhancement of Haki, they can still cause some trouble for Moria.

"No, I can't keep fighting them, but I can't beat that guy's real body." Moria pondered this as he swung his sword to fend off the attacks of the Wood Clones.

In fact, Vidal had no intention of hiding his true form, which can be seen from the fact that he did not dispel the green armor on his body, because the Wood Clone did not have this.

Even so, Moria did not switch positions with the Doppelman again, because it seemed that even if he switched places, he wouldn't be able to do anything to Vidal.

Because he was waiting, waiting for that damned sunset to completely disappear!

Vidal also realized that the Wood Clones were not effective at suppressing Moria; at least, they could hardly cause him any harm.

However, he didn't have a good solution for the time being. After all, he couldn't switch places with his Wood Clone like Moria could at any time. So even if he abandoned the Doppelman to chase after him, as long as Moria was determined not to confront him head-on, he could use the Shadow Warrior to create distance between them again.

Therefore, chasing after it is definitely pointless.

"How about this?"

Vidal came up with a method with a huge flaw, but he still wanted to try it. Instantly, three thin wooden strips shot out from his body and connected to the Wood Clone.

"What is this?"

Moria naturally noticed this scene as well. Suddenly, green light burst forth from the Wood Clone in front of him, and its expression became more vivid.

"Shigan - Seed Machine Gun!"

[Whoosh!]

His hands became a blur of afterimages, within which green dots appeared, landing on Moria's massive body in his horrified gaze, and immediately spurts of blood gushed from the wound.

If he had Awakening Observation Haki, he might have been able to dodge Vidal's sudden attack.

"Ahh!"

Moria cried out in pain, his mind reeling from the shock of how Vidal could switch places with his Wood Clone. Could he also be Shadow Warrior?

Regardless of his thoughts, he quickly used his fruit ability to instantly switch places with the Doppelman, thus temporarily escaping the 'Seed Machine Gun's' reach.

But Vidal was inseparable from him; the Doppelman also had two Wood Clones by his side!

[Buzz--]

The green light that bloomed again around him caused Moria's pupils to shrink instantly, and his face turned green. He was certain now; this bastard could also be Shadow Warrior, and he could switch places with his clone!!

But Vidal showed no intention of stopping to explain the principles behind his moves, and kicked out with his two long, slender legs at high speed.

"Rankyaku - Flying Leaf Quick Blade!"

The Rankyaku Blade, coated with a layer of Photosynthetic Energy, was also green in color, and as soon as it appeared, it split into countless tiny blades that shot out.

"Burst Gun Tree!"

The other Wood Clone didn't even notice, as thick, long, and sharp wooden spears pierced Moria's back. Left with no other choice, he could only rely on his swordsmanship to wield his shadow blade, the dark blade light fiercely protecting his body.

He didn't change positions again because it proved to be ineffective!

But Moria wasn't without a chance to fight back. The Doppelman in the distance stretched out his entire body, transforming into a Shadow Stab that hurtled towards Vidal.

"Shadow Horn Spear!"

[Puff--]

The shadow stalk moved with incredible speed, traversing dozens of meters in the blink of an eye, passing right through Vidal's abdomen as he Rankyaku.

The dense array of 'Flying Leaf Quick Blades' disappeared, but Moria showed no joy, for no blood flowed from Vidal's wounded body.

He changed positions again!

Moria gritted his teeth and roared in fury. He was absolutely enraged. Shouldn't this kind of toying with others be his exclusive domain?

"Bingo!"
