It was terrifying, absolutely terrifying, as if I were standing in a rushing Dahe formed by a Conqueror's Haki.
What shocked Moria even more was that the other party's aura seemed to be inexhaustible.
Their spirit transformed into a rushing Dahe, constantly surging against them.
At the same time, the Haki Dahe carried a strong tremor, making even Moria somewhat unsteady on his feet.
Is this the grandeur of the Emperor of the Sea?
Or is this truly the Conqueror's Haki Spirit?
"This is completely different from the Conqueror's Haki I know." "Yeah, that's how it should be!"
Zesi looked at the Moria Pirates, and only when he saw that everyone except Moria was lying on the ground did he stop his Conqueror's Haki attack with satisfaction.
"Hehehe, is this the aura of the Azure Emperor? He truly possesses the Haki of a ruler. But I am Gecko Moria. Mere Conqueror's Haki can't scare me!" Moria said.
Scatter Bat!
The Doppelman, whose arm had just been blown off by Zesi, transformed into black spheres and flew up. The black spheres then transformed into bats and attacked Zesi.
"Using this tactic to test the waters?" As the bats flew in like they were knocking on a door, Zesi casually stretched out a hand and lightly tapped the air with his five-pound hammer.
With just that one tap, it felt like striking something, causing the air to vibrate and sending out waves of high-frequency vibrations.
Under the impact of the shockwave, the incoming bats exploded one after another. "However, such a weak attack can't even be used for probing!"
Zesi chuckled, looking at Moria with an expression that said, "Go ahead and show me what you've got."
Seeing this, Moria's face also turned very gloomy.
The exclamation mark "!" indicates that the Scatter Bat are indeed not very offensive.
However, the Scatter Bat are small targets and numerous, making them his best way to probe his opponent's attack patterns.
However, this move couldn't even be used to test the waters against the Azure Emperor.
With a casual tap, all of his Scatter Bat exploded.
As expected of a powerful being at the level of the Emperor of the Sea, he is indeed not so easy to deal with.
But it doesn't matter, the Scatter Bat are made of shadows, so they are immune to damage. Even if they are destroyed, they can simply reassemble.
Doppelman: The moment Moria's thought left his lips, the Scatter Bat that had been blasted apart regrouped, forming a shadow Moria.
"Hehehe, as expected of the Azure Emperor, the Scatter Bat really couldn't hinder you at all. However, it's only natural that a monster at the level of the Emperor of the Sea would have such strength." Moria said, while giving a Moria to his companions who were slowly rising behind him. His companions nodded silently.
Then, quietly and cautiously, they dragged their unconscious companions back.
Zesi ignored those people; he wasn't interested in them, and it didn't matter whether they lived or died.
The only person present who interested Zesi was Moria, a character from the original story.
Actually, Moria's Devil Fruit is pretty good.
If used properly, its power is quite considerable.
It remains to be seen how far Moria will be able to utilize it.
Zesi waited patiently for Moria to attack, a composure only a strong person possesses.
" Doppelman Impact!" Moria shouted.
At his shout, the Doppelman transformed into a shadow and slipped into the ground, then moved across the ground at an extremely fast speed.
The shadow flashed across the ground and appeared in front of Zesi in the blink of an eye. Then it transformed into Moria and reached out to grab Zesi.
Zesi tilted his head, thus narrowly avoiding the Doppelman's attack.
Before Zesi could retaliate, the Doppelman flashed, transforming into a shadow once more and disappearing into the ground before Zesi's eyes.
The Doppelman vanished from Zesi's sight and instantly reappeared behind Zesi.
Another grab came from a blind spot in Zesi's line of sight, reaching towards Zesi's back.
Zesi deftly dodged the Doppelman's attack once again by slightly shifting his body to the side.
The Doppelman vanished again in an instant.
The Doppelman transformed into a streak of light, constantly appearing and disappearing around Zesi, launching Zesi attacks.
The Shadow Clone's stealthy, teleporting attacks are undeniably fast.
But what appeared to others as a dazzling display of speed and agility was, in Zesi's eyes, as slow as a tortoise.
Zesi easily dodged all the attacks!
"How is this possible? The captain's Doppelman attack couldn't do anything to the Azure Emperor?"
" The Doppelman, whom countless pirates have been helpless against, is utterly useless against the Azure Emperor!" "Not only is he useless, but judging from the situation, it's like he's just playing around!"
Captain Moria!
The members of the Moria Pirates said with shock and worry.
"Not bad, to have achieved this much is far better than I remember," Zesi said.
With just this one move, Moria is now much stronger than the Moria he remembers.
The current Moria is not as bloated as he was in the original story.
Especially her belly, which wasn't as round and bulging as described in the original work.
Even his shadow became incredibly agile.
This also makes the Doppelman's attacks extremely fierce and swift.
Combined with the stealthy movement of shadows, those without Observation Haki would truly be helpless against this attack.
He truly deserves his reputation as a hero of the West Blue.
"But if that's all there is to it, then this farce should end here!" Zesi said to Moria with a leisurely air as he calmly dodged the Doppelman's attacks.
Moria's attack was decent, but in Zesi's eyes it was still too weak.
Hearing his own attack described by Zesi as nothing more than a farce!
This made Moria's face turn very ugly.
" Shadow's Asgard!" Moria shouted, his face grim.
In an instant, the Doppelman and Moria switched places.
Moria instantly appeared in front of Zesi in place of his Shadow Clone.
He wielded a weapon in each hand and slashed fiercely at Zesi.
