Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

Zoro slashed down the charging zombie with a single blow and looked at the zombie generals emerging from not far away.

This group fought their way to the outskirts of the castle.

However, the group that came to block their way was just a bunch of small fry, and Zoro and his crew didn't put in any effort.

"Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho, salt is the best weapon against zombies! Everyone remember to stuff salt into the zombies' mouths."

Brook knows the weaknesses of these zombies.

Otherwise, the zombies would just keep respawning indefinitely, which would be too troublesome.

Not long after, in the relatively open gravel square outside the castle.

Sanji, Zoro, Nika, and the newly joined Brook—this peculiar quartet—are surrounded by zombie generals led by Ryuma and Captain John.

Battle is imminent.

"Don't try to take it from me, I'll take that swordsman."

Zoro drew his three swords and instantly locked onto the zombie with an ancient longsword at his waist.

General Zombie, Sword Master Ryoma.

"He's not in the same league as the zombies you saw before!" a zombie shouted from nearby. "This is a zombie general with a special body, a man from Wano Country in the New World!"

"The legendary samurai who slew a flying dragon in the sky!"

"Hey, looks like a formidable swordsman." Zoro licked his lips, his fighting spirit soaring.

"I also sense that you are a swordsman."

Ryoma's stiff face seemed expressionless, but his hand holding the sword was incredibly steady: "Unfortunately, you're not a beautiful swordswoman."

Zoro's hand gripping the sword trembled. Huh?

You're not a proper swordsman.

"State your name." Ryoma drew his sword.

"Roronoa Zoro, the future world's greatest swordsman!" Zoro announced his name and charged forward, unleashing the "Oni-giri" (Demon Slayer)!

Three sharp blades clashed and slashed out!

A red glint flashed in Ryuma's eyes, and his famous sword "Shusui" was instantly drawn half an inch from its sheath, precisely blocking Zoro's slash with the tsuba!

clang!

Sparks flew everywhere!

The two sides intersected.

"Speed ​​is acceptable, but power is lacking."

Ryoma's voice was calm. With a flick of his wrist, Autumn Water was fully drawn, tracing a jet-black arc as it lashed out at Zoro's chest. "Revolutionary Dance: Charge!"

Zoro's pupils contracted slightly, and he hurriedly crossed Wado Ichimonji and Sandai Kitetsu in front of his chest.

A powerful impact sent him sliding backward several meters, carving two shallow furrows beneath his feet.

"Damn it, he's really strong."

Zoro shook his numb arm, his eyes shining with even more excitement. "This is more interesting!"

On the other side, Sanji was still trying to distract someone when he saw a cocky guy reeking of alcohol walking over.

"Hey, you drunkard, move aside. I'm not interested in drunk men." Sanji lit a cigarette and frowned.

"Hehehe, young man, don't get so worked up." Captain John took another swig of wine, looking at Sanji with slurred eyes. "Fighting is so boring, how about we have a drink together?"

"I don't have time to waste on you!"

Sanji's eyes turned cold, and he vanished instantly, reappearing beside Captain John, kicking him with a "Head Meat!"

His right foot whistled through the air as he kicked towards Captain John's neck.

However, Captain John, despite his apparent drunkenness, reacted with astonishing speed! He casually sidestepped, and Sanji's kick grazed the hem of his clothes.

At the same time, the knife he had inserted into his shoulder blade suddenly popped out halfway as if it were alive, and the cold blade slashed towards Sanji's calf.

Ok? !

Sanji was startled and quickly pulled back, narrowly avoiding the attack.

"Hehe, not bad, kid."

Captain John chuckled, drew the knife from his side, and casually twirled it. "Looks like I'll have to stretch my muscles a bit, but I really hate fighting."

They say they hate it, but they show no mercy when they do it.

Sanji said with a disgruntled look, "It's already annoying enough to have to deal with two drunkards on the ship every day."

Captain John sighed, "There's nothing I can do. I just picked the weakest one to attack."

One sentence seemed to ignite a burning anger within Sanji.

What does it mean to appear to be the weakest?

Captain John wasn't the only one who wanted to slack off.

Looking at the increasing number of zombies around him, and those few zombie generals exuding a powerful aura, Nika, who originally just wanted to slack off and drink, picked at his ear with some impatience.

"Hiccup, seriously, you guys are never going to stop!"

She muttered something, then downed the rest of the wine in the jug in one gulp and tossed the empty jug aside.

Boom!

The next moment, a strange and enormous aura burst forth from her petite body.

As its body rapidly expanded like an inflating balloon, its white fur grew even thicker, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a giant white raccoon tens of meters tall, surrounded by wisps of white steam resembling fiery clouds!

"It's noisy."

"Hiccup~ I'll stomp you all flat!" Nika let out a drunken hiccup, the sound like muffled thunder, and stomped down.

A loud noise was heard, the ground shook, and the battlefield on Sanji and Zoro's side was also affected.

They jumped back quickly before they realized what was that enormous creature.

"Hey, hey, hey, there's no need to get into this state," Sanji said.

Zoro was speechless: "How much did this guy drink?"

"Yohohoho, that's really scary."

Brooke never imagined that Nika, who looked so small and always clung to a wine jug, could turn into this.

"What is that?!"

"Monster! Another monster!"

The surviving zombies screamed in terror as they stared at the enormous creature that had suddenly appeared.

Shouldn't such a colossal creature be unique to Lord Moria?

Nika didn't care about any of that; she directly used Luffy's usual technique.

Rubber Rubber Chariot!

The enormous white body rolled forward like a road roller, flattening low houses in its path and turning taller buildings into ruins with a flurry of punches and kicks from its massive claws.

Gravel flew everywhere, and dust filled the air!

Countless zombies screamed as they were thrown out of the buildings where they were hiding, or were buried directly under the rubble.

"Tsk, now you know how powerful I am. The one who doesn't make a move is the most powerful, don't you understand?"

Nika exhaled a breath of hot air from his nose.

Nika's principle regarding zombies in buildings is simple.

Those who lie still obediently will be spared for now.

Anyone who dares to climb out or attempt to attack will be kicked.

In the face of absolute power and size, numerical advantage seems so ridiculous.

"Hehehehehe!"

Moria, who was observing from the shadows, was not afraid of Nika's terrifying destructive power and enormous size. Instead, he was so excited that he danced with joy.

"This is it! This is it! What a powerful shadow! What perfect material! If we could stuff its shadow into that special zombie... hehehehe, we could definitely create the strongest zombie warrior in the world!"

Chapter 265 Snow Walks Through Destiny, Black Blade Autumn Water

Moria felt no pity whatsoever as he watched Nika recklessly trample the zombie army.

You can have as many regular zombies as you want.

Even the zombie generals can be ignored.

Moria desperately wants the shadow of this big guy now.

They are a perfect match!

Moria seized the opportunity when Nika was clearing away a group of zombies with his back to him. His massive body moved silently beneath Nika's enormous figure, like a ghost, using the shadows as cover.

"Shadow Box!"

Moria clasped his hands together, and Nika's shadow beneath her feet suddenly transformed into a solid black box, temporarily immobilizing her enormous feet for a moment.

"What happened?" Nika sobered up a bit.

Right now.

"Shadow Mage!"

Moria summoned his shadow clone, which nimbly climbed onto Nika's back as if cut from paper.

Nika sensed something was wrong and was about to turn around when Moria's true form appeared beside her enormous head, the huge scissors in her hand gleaming coldly.

"Hehehe, I'll keep your shadow!"
