Wuli replied silently, I know!
Gecko Moria was strong, but Wuli had faced someone even stronger: Shiryu of the Rain!
Shiryu had only been hunting for sport back then. If he had taken the fight seriously, Wuli might have died long ago.
Gecko Moria was weaker than Shiryu, but he was still formidable. A Sword Soul Pill had appeared in Wuli's hand, its marking already somewhat faded.
The system had given him three days to decide whether to use the Sword Soul Pill. Today was the last day.
After today, the pill would disappear, and Wuli would receive a new Sword Dao Seed.
But as things stood, Shangyang had little chance of winning.
Wuli studied Gecko Moria, while Gecko Moria studied the Marine commodore who dared stand in his way.

"Was it Sakazuki? Sengoku? Or those two words behind you—Absolute Justice? Kishishishi!"
At Gecko Moria's words, the Marines' expressions shifted. They all looked at Wuli. Truthfully, they wanted to know too.
Shangyang looked over as well.
Wuli smiled faintly, then swept his gaze across the blood-soaked, miserable country, which was gradually becoming a graveyard.
