"Is it starting already?"
Moria stared at the breach in the Giant Gecko, his heart giving an involuntary leap.

And then there was Akainu's scorching-hot magma.

His bloodlust had cooled off by now.

By constantly switching places with his shadow, Moria's real body leaped from one fleeing shadow bat to another.
