One Piece: Fist of the World.

Chapter 143 Nemesis
"You guys!"

Perona glared at Rhodes and Nia.

"You are so disrespectful! What do you think of my abilities?"

Of these two people, one blocked the attack of the 'Negative Ghost', and the other quickly recovered after being attacked.

Not only does he not take his own "negative ghost" that is always successful seriously, he even uses his ability to play tricks on his companions. Even if he looks down on others, there should be a limit!

"Mini Ghost·Ghost Bomb!!"

Perona stretched out her hand, and several ghosts appeared in her palm.

Since the ability of 'Negative Ghost' is ineffective against them, use ghost bombs to attack them!
"This is different from what we just had."

Rod captured Robin's negative and depressed side, put away the video-den-den-mushi with satisfaction, and looked at the mini ghost flying towards him.

This is a ghost bomb that can produce an explosion. It is completely different from the "negative ghost" that made people negative just now.

"Of course I know!"

No matter how much she jokes, Nia will never joke about her friends' safety.

Now Robin is still in a passive state and has no ability to resist at all. Who knows what special attack the opponent will launch this time.

Since it is an uncertain attack, of course we have to stop it!
Nia took a step forward, crossed her hands in front of her, black cat ears appeared on her head, and she directly entered the form of a half-human beast.

Not only that, a ball of faint black flame appeared on her body, emitting an ominous aura.

That was the black flame of her 'Mythical Beast Species - Nekomata Fruit', which had the effect of burning the soul.

"Hehehehe~~"

Perona looked at Nia, who was in a fighting stance, without showing any panic on her face.

The ghost created by her 'Spirit Fruit' is a product between entity and illusion. Ordinary attacks cannot attack ghosts at all, but ghosts can cause damage to enemies.

"It's useless! Ordinary attacks can't hit my ghost. Just wait to be blown to pieces by my ghost bomb!"

Snapped!
Perona stretched out her fingers and snapped them confidently.

Bear~~
Nia waved her arms violently, and the black flames wrapped around her body instantly flew away. The black flames fell on the mini-ghost that Perona attacked, instantly igniting the mini-ghost.

"I'm sorry, it seems I'm your nemesis!"

Seeing that her black flame could indeed attack the opponent's ghost, a smile suddenly appeared on Nia's face.

Just now, he was attacked by the other party's strange ghost without paying attention, and Rhodes took a picture of his embarrassing side.

It seemed impossible to get the video Den Den Mushi back from Rod, but fortunately, she was not the only one who was hit. Gray and Robin were also hit, which made Nia feel a little more balanced.

However, she had no way to deal with Rhode, but Nia was still quite confident that she could teach this pink-haired girl with twin ponytails a lesson.

"Eh!!!"

Perona's eyes suddenly bulged out and she performed some facial expressions for Nia.

Since she ate the devil fruit, this was the first time she encountered a ghost that could attack her directly!

"It's too late to be shocked now!"

Nia stepped on the ground and her body instantly flew towards Perona.

"Ghost Bomb!!"

Seeing Nia approaching her, Perona quickly created many small ghosts around herself and detonated them directly.

Boom! !

The continuous explosions slightly interfered with Nia's movements. Many zombies that were unable to dodge were directly blown into pieces by the sudden explosions. For a moment, dust and broken limbs flew everywhere, completely disrupting Nia's movements.

"too frightening!"

Perona took advantage of Nia's disruption and quickly rushed back to her castle.

She doesn't want to fight with such a dangerous enemy!
"ran away?"

The dust raised by the explosion gradually dissipated. Nia stood among a pile of ruins and looked around, but did not see Perona again. She felt a little disappointed.

"Ok?"

Nia, who was about to turn around, suddenly paused and set her eyes on a stitched man with a lion face not far away.

Although the other party had marks of stitches all over his body like those zombies, judging from the breath he felt, he was a living person!

"Are you also a subordinate of Moria?"

When Nia thought of the living people who could appear on this island, the first thing she thought of was Moonlight Moriah's subordinates.

"that···"

Absalom looked at Nia, who was surrounded by a ball of flames in front of him, with a stiff expression and his head turning rapidly.

He was originally planning to leave quietly and summon the zombie generals to deal with these people, but he didn't expect that he would be exposed because of Perona's bombardment that did not distinguish between friend and foe.

It's completely over now!
After giving up the illusion of 'marrying' Nia, Absalom finally recognized the identities of Rhodes and his group.

He could have been following the news.

The man in the lead was none other than the 'Ba Ken Rod' who was advertised in the newspapers some time ago and who was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea along with his 'master'!
But why would the other party appear here?
Absalom's head turned quickly, and finally a stiff smile appeared on his face.

"I didn't expect that it was Lord Tyrant Rhodes who came to visit. I wonder what you are doing here so suddenly."

"It seems you know me."

Rhodes walked over and looked at the lion-faced man.

Behind him, followed Robin with an expressionless face.

After coming out of his negative state, Robin has remained in this state, except that on each side of Rhode's shoulders, there is an arm, pulling Rhode's ears as if to vent. "That's great, you lead the way."

Rhodes instructed Absalom.

There were many castles scattered on this island, and Rhodes didn't know which castle Moria was in.

It would be even better if the other party's subordinates could lead the way.

Facing Rhodes' gaze, Absalom felt a bitter feeling in his heart, but he did not dare to refuse Rhodes' request.

After all, the other party was a big shot of the same level as his "master", and he was powerless to resist on his own.

However, if the entire zombie army is sent out, even Tyrant Rhodes will probably die here!

Absalom had an idea in his mind and walked in front to lead the way for Rhodes and his companions.

"Stop pulling it, stop pulling it, it's really going to fall off if you keep pulling it."

Rhodes turned his head and looked at Robin beside him.

"It's just a souvenir. I won't spread it around."

"I just think that Mr. Captain's actions were too rash."

Robin removed the two arms from Rhodes' shoulders and remained expressionless.

"He clearly had the ability to defeat the opponent, but he didn't take action. If the opponent's ability was not to make people passive, but was a more dangerous ability, we would be in danger just now."

"I understand. I won't do this again!"

Rhodes promised solemnly.

What Robin said makes sense.

If the ghost that Perona released towards Robin just now was not a 'negative ghost' but a lethal 'bomb ghost', Robin might have been seriously injured by the ghost.

"Damn it, an attack from the soul?"

Gray followed behind with a somewhat unhappy look on his face.

This was his first time showing off his abilities in front of his friends, but his coolness lasted only three seconds. As soon as he showed off his abilities a little, he was knocked down by his partner with a "Negative Ghost".

As for being recorded by Rod about his embarrassing situation, Gray didn't care.

What he cared more about was the imperfection of his debut.

"It seems that the research and development of materials that can defend against soul attacks should be given priority."

The big bear followed silently at the back.

He had a clear idea of ​​his position. He was just a tool who followed Rhodes' orders and would not take the initiative to do anything.

"It's here."

Absalom led everyone around the island in silence, and finally came to a castle. He pushed open the door and led everyone in.

“It looks pretty good.”

After entering the castle gate, Nia looked around.

"It's somewhat similar to the architectural style of Xihai, and the patterns on the castle walls look like some ancient monument that disappeared 200 years ago."

Robin noticed the architecture of the castle.

This style made her feel somewhat familiar.

"So, where are Moria's people?"

Rhodes looked at Absalom and asked.

"The master usually rests in a castle behind this one."

After Absalom opened the door for everyone, he held the door and watched Rhodes and his party enter. Now he stood behind Rhodes and his party and was closing the castle door.

"This is?"

Looking at the closed door and the zombies that came out from every corner of the castle at some point in time, Gray looked hesitant.

"I won't believe your lies!"

Absalom ran into the crowd of zombies, looked at Rhodes and his group and spoke loudly.

"There is no friendship between pirates! Even among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, there is no personal relationship. Having followed the master for so long, I know this very well."

"There's only plunder among pirates!"

Returning to his home turf, surrounded by the zombie army he had created, with all the elite zombie generals there, Absalom regained his confidence, his face full of arrogance.

"I will destroy all pirates who threaten my 'master' and take everything from you!"

The surrounding zombies all took a step forward.

Compared to the zombies they had encountered outside before, the zombies here were obviously much stronger. Even without attacking them, Gray could feel their powerful aura.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you."

Absalom seemed to have seen the defeat of Rhodes and his men.

"As a Shichibukai, I'm sure your shadow will be able to meet the requirements of your 'master'!"

"Come on, zombie generals, defeat all these guys!"

Absalom waved his hand, and all the zombies in the castle attacked Rhodes and his men.
