Chapter 145: Dragon Horse Changes Shadow

minutes ago
“Hahahahaha!!”

"The shadow of a Haki user! It's rare, so rare!"

The moonlight shone coldly in the castle. From a dim room in the back building, sinister laughter could be heard.

A huge and weird-looking figure was slumped there, with a shallot head and two short horns, sharp teeth and ears like a devil, and a fat body but tiny limbs.

"As expected of a strong man who can fight against so many zombie generals at the same time!"

Looking at the struggling shadow in his hand, Moria couldn't help but grin, revealing his sharp white teeth.

"Although a lot of high-quality bodies were destroyed, it was worth it. This is a crew member with a bounty of only 160 million Baileys!"

"If I could get those two shadows with bounties over 500 million, I can't imagine how powerful I would be, hehehehehe!!"

"Lord Moria! Lord Moria!"

Two excited shouts were heard at the door. Following the direction of the sound, I saw the squirrel brothers running towards me quickly, carrying a coffin.

"Oh wow! Another harvest?!"

"That's right!"

"It's Roronoa Zoro from the Straw Hat Pirates!"

"Hahaha! Who did this?!"

Moriah was ecstatic when he heard this, and couldn't help but stretch out his fat neck curiously and asked, "The zombie generals and the three monsters were just sent to deal with Straw Hat Boy Luffy and Black Snake Reiner, right?"

"Report to the master! We don't know either!"

The squirrel brothers opened the coffin and pointed at the unconscious Zoro who was tied up inside and shouted:

"The trap in the castle was inexplicably triggered, and we found Roronoa, who was drugged and unconscious, and tied him up!"

"Is that so? I was thinking about whoever did this and might consider promoting him. Forget it."

Moriah looked excited. He reached out and grabbed the rope that tied up Zoro and lifted him up.

A headlight nearby was turned on, and a strong beam of light shone on Zoro, casting his shadow on the ground.

Moria stretched out his hand towards the shadow in the aperture, and pointed his sharp five fingers into the dark shadow. The next moment, the shadow was torn directly up like a piece of paper stuck to the ground.

The strong light made Zoro's eyelids tremble slightly, and as consciousness gradually returned, he opened his eyes.

In the blurred vision, a captured black shadow was struggling in front of him. Upon closer inspection, he found that the elongated black shadow was actually connected to his feet!
"Hey! What's going on?!"

Zoro screamed in surprise and was about to explode when he found himself floating in the air, his whole body tightly wrapped in strong silk threads. He subconsciously glanced at his waist and found that the three swords were gone.

next moment.

boom!
As soon as Moriah's hand loosened, Zoro, who was being lifted up, felt a sense of weightlessness and fell heavily to the ground.

At this moment, he had no mind to care about anything else. He raised his head suddenly and looked at his own shadow. He clearly remembered that there was a Shichibukai on this island who could take away other people's shadows!
"Roronoa, the bounty is 200 million berries."

He saw the other party grinning sinisterly, grabbing the shadow in one hand and picking up a huge pair of scissors in the other. The two sharp blades were shining coldly, and they cut off his shadow neatly in front of his shocked gaze.

"I will accept your shadow without hesitation, hehehehe!!"

Zoro's pupils shrank instantly, and he lost consciousness again and passed out amid the eerie laughter.

"If it's a swordsman who is a Haki user, maybe he can better unleash his power."

Moria bared his sharp white fangs, stared at the struggling shadow in his hand for a moment, then turned to look at the three little zombies at his feet.

"Such a good shadow cannot be wasted. Go find Absalom and bring the swordsman Ryoma and the wind Jigoro."

"I know Master!"

"As you command, Master Moria!"

"Let's go right now!"

The three little zombies screamed, then flapped their short legs and ran towards the door.

"You two, you must stay alive well." Moriah stretched out his hand with a grim smile, and the bodies of Zoro and Sanji were put back into the coffin.

Time goes back to the present, in the lobby of the castle, in Hobguk's laboratory.

A man with a big belly and thin legs that looked like goblets was standing next to the operating table and busying himself.

Sweat oozed from Hogback's forehead and slid down his chubby face.

"Xin Duoli, wipe your sweat."

“I hate dishes.”

A cold voice came from the side. He showed an inexplicably panicked expression, turned around and waved his hands, saying:
"No! I know that. I just said to wipe the sweat!"

After a moment, the light on the operating table was turned off.

"Huh~~, another one was rescued."

Hogbak took off his mask with a long sigh.

Turning around, he looked at a beast-like man sitting on the sofa behind him. He was immediately furious and shouted at him with his teeth bared:

"Asshole! Do you know how rare these zombie generals' bodies are? I put so much effort into transforming them."

As he spoke, he pointed to the corner where nearly ten zombies were piled up and unable to move, and said angrily:
"It turned out to be broken into this state! So many zombies were smashed to pieces and can no longer be used. This loss is too great! These are all my hard work!"

"Don't be angry, Hogbark. There's nothing we can do about it."

Absalom folded his arms in front of him, leaned against the sofa and said calmly:
"Those guys are much stronger than I thought, especially Blackfoot Sanji and Roronoa. If Perona hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid the zombie generals I brought would have been wiped out.

"Now at least we have captured a shadow of Blackfoot Sanji. Lord Moria said that it is a very strong shadow. All these losses are worth it."

"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

Hogbag raised his head and grinned, "I wonder which of my masterpieces he will be placed in. I am really looking forward to it!"

"Don't be happy too soon. The group outside has already entered the castle."

Absalom looked solemn and said in a deep voice:
"Black Snake Reiner, that guy is definitely not easy to deal with. Although I haven't seen him take action, the bounty is there after all. It's actually higher than that of Lord Moria."

"That being said, Lord Moria's bounty was before he became a Shichibukai, and this time we have Ryoma and several powerful zombie generals here."

Hogbak spoke weakly. He knew nothing about fighting and couldn't judge much.

"Lord Absalom! Lord Hogbark!"

At this time, there were several shouts from the corridor outside the door. The two turned around and saw the three little zombies serving Moria running in hurriedly.

"What's the rush?" Absalom asked calmly.

A little zombie carrying a bow and arrow stood up and said:

"Master Absalom, the master said he wants to bring the swordsman Ryoma over, as well as the wind Jigoro. Roronoa has been captured!"

"Oh? How did you do that?"

Absalom couldn't help but wonder. After all, capturing Blackfoot Sanji destroyed so many of his zombie generals. After getting help from Hobgobak, he immediately came back with the zombies. So who captured Roronoa?
"Forget it, as long as he's caught, I'll let him go with you."

"Wait a minute!"

Hogbag shouted hurriedly, "Forget about Kaze no Jigoro! Ryoma is my bodyguard. If he is called away, who will protect me?"

"Hey, don't forget, I'm the one who commands the zombie generals."

Absalom stood up and said, "There are so many zombie generals here. What are you afraid of? I will stay and help myself. After all."

He turned and walked out the door, "I've already chosen my bride, and I'm going to marry her!"

After a while, three little zombies carried away a corpse, followed by a man in tattered samurai clothes.

 I have something to do. Let's stop here for today and we'll continue tomorrow.
