He's a pirate, but also a Pokémon Master.

"Look at my cat!"

"Meow Meow Salt Gun Shooting!"

Seizing the opportunity, Meow Meow raised her specially made salt gun with both hands and finished off the zombies, eliminating them completely.

After salt was sprinkled into the zombie's mouth, wisps of shadow escaped.

On the other side, seeing the zombies being dealt with so quickly, like mowing grass, Hogback's large body slumped into a chair in fright.

How is that possible!

The zombie army was a terrifying army he helped create!

He was always very proud of it and regarded it as a great work!

But just now, a group of zombies was wiped out in an instant.

This not only made him feel a deep sense of crisis, but also shattered his hopes.

Chopper, exasperated, said, "Dr. Hogback! You're such a great doctor, you've saved so many lives."

"Why did it turn out like this?!"

"Life is not something to be trifled with!"

Chopper's tone was angry.

Back on Drum Island, it learned about Hogback's deeds from Dr. Kureha. He was once a very famous surgeon who had saved many lives.

It once regarded Hogback as its role model.

It wasn't until recently that it learned from Gushin that the missing Hogback had been working for Moria.

He actually transformed other people's corpses into zombies to fight.

This was something Chopper found very unacceptable.

"What do you know!" Hogback slammed his hand on the armrest and retorted.

"What medical skills? What saving lives! Only resurrection is the most important ability!"

"And I now possess the power to resurrect!"

"This is what doctors should be doing!"

"Cindy, hurry up and finish it!"

Swah——

As soon as he finished speaking, three plates flew away quickly.

Chopper's gaze sharpened, and he easily dodged using his Observation Haki.

The plate fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Immediately afterward, the agile maid Cindy attacked.

Chopper didn't even need to transform; he simply leaped into the air, his deer hooves turning into black iron, and his power multiplied with the help of Armament Haki!

His voice is full of energy!

"Carved Cherry Blossom!"

boom!

Cindy's body was suddenly sent flying backward, then crashed into the wall.

"Great opportunity, meow!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Meowth tried to solve the problem with salt, but was forced back by the sudden appearance of a negative ghost and returned to Chopper's side.

"You've gone too far!"

"This princess is extremely angry!"

Perona, holding a burgundy parasol, floated in the air and angrily rebuked.

Four semi-transparent, eerie ghosts floated beside her.

Perona is a user of the Ghost-Ghost Fruit, possessing abilities such as levitation, ghost clones, negative ghosts, and ghost bombs.

The most overpowered of them all is the Negative Ghost. Anyone who passes through it will become extremely negative and lose their ability to fight.

In the original story, he encountered an even more overpowered god, Usopp.

Because Usopp is usually very pessimistic, it had no effect; otherwise, the Straw Hat crew would have almost been wiped out.

However, this was because the Straw Hat crew at that time did not yet possess Haki and were not powerful enough, so they lacked the ability to retaliate.

If it were Vivi and the others, the outcome would be different.

"Go forth, you pessimistic ghosts!"

Perona exclaimed excitedly, full of confidence in her own negative spirit.

She wants to make these guys suffer, make them very negative, and then pull out the shadow to make up for the losses in this battle!

Upon hearing this, a smile flashed across Hogback's face, as if he could already see the enemy falling.

He was well aware of Perona's abilities.

With her around, I can rest assured.

At this moment, Gardevoir stepped forward, looking at the ghosts flying all over the sky, her clear eyes showing no fear.

These ghosts are nothing to it.

It had witnessed Absalom's despicable acts ever since that night on Treasure Island.

They even dared to harm innocent civilians, turning them into zombies for use in battle.

It has harbored a deep resentment towards Moria's team ever since.

Today, I'm finally fortunate enough to eliminate this scourge.

"Sanai!"

Gardevoir gently raised its hands, and in the next moment, a rich pink light rippled in front of it, transforming into a delicate and enchanting wave that rushed straight towards the attacking ghost before exploding.

[Strong mental focus]!

In an instant, the ghost carrying negative energy was torn to shreds.

Since Gardevoir was promoted to S-class, in addition to the newly added attribute "Spatial Coordinates", the original attribute "Psychic Queen" has also been further improved.

[Psychic Queen: Gardevoir's Psychic and Fairy-type abilities are amplified by 50%, further expanding the effects of her Psychic powers, including the ability to foresee the next five minutes... and she possesses Conqueror's Haki befitting a Psychic Queen]

At this point, Gardevoir truly possessed the power of a "Psychic Queen"!

A rich, supernatural energy permeated the room—

A strong wind suddenly arose, whistling in everyone's ears.

How is that possible!

Perona stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what she was seeing.

Was her negative spirit thus resolved?

Ignoring the shock, Gardevoir launched another attack.

Perona gritted her teeth and unleashed her trump card.

Bring your hands together in front of your chest, and a light shines forth!

"Go! Massive Phantom Kamikaze Bomb!"

As energy surged forth, an enormous bomb appeared, its distinctive ghostly face hanging above it, its jaws agape as it lunged toward Gardevoir!

Visible to the naked eye, the enormous ghost contains immense energy.

Vivi and the others also subconsciously looked serious, feeling slightly worried about Gardevoir...

They don't yet know just how powerful Gardevoir is.

Gardevoir's eyes lit up, and its powerful psychic abilities instantly enveloped the giant ghost, creating a pink prison!

Then, Gardevoir's thoughts compressed and squeezed it.

The gigantic ghost exploded instantly, unleashing a torrent of destructive energy, but it was confined to that small space, firmly restricted by the superpower, and not even a wisp of wind escaped.

Even the simple use of telekinesis is enough to handle most problems!

"This is impossible!" Perona gasped, her face filled with disbelief.

After using this move, she couldn't help but feel tired.

Such a powerful move was rendered useless, without even a sound, before it was completely neutralized.

How could the enemy be so powerful!

The next moment, Gardevoir cast Hypnosis, putting Hogback and Perona to sleep.

Next, it will be handed over to Guxin for processing.

……

Thick fog swirled along the shore.

The Victini is quietly docked here, guarded by Robin, Cheese Egg, and Aerodactyl; one person and two Pokémon is the standard setup.

Guxin also considered the matter carefully and believed that Robin was more suitable to stay.

This can also be seen from the original work; she had "rebellious intentions."

Back when the Straw Hat crew was on Thriller Bark, if Robin hadn't refused Pirate No. 6's combination with Giant Emperor, Luffy would have become the Pirate King long ago.

On the deck paved with exquisite mahogany, under a parasol, there is a round table and chairs made of clouds, where Robin sits reading a book.

The Bictini is a medium-sized sailing ship with a fairly large main deck, which usually includes various special areas in addition to the wheelhouse.

For example, there's the "sunchair area" and the "giant dumbbell area" where Gushin often hangs out, the "afternoon tea area" where Robin is, and the "medicine field area" that Chopper created...

"Happy~"

Happy Egg, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen carrying a tray and placed two cups of coffee and pastries on the round table.

"Thank you, Happy Egg." Robin closed the book and smiled gently.

As she picked up her coffee, she flicked her left hand.

On the shore, a woman's arm suddenly grew from the neck of a wolf zombie that was trying to board the ship. The arm gleamed with the unique luster of Armament Haki and then forcefully knocked the wolf zombie off the ship into the sea.

As a crew member who stayed behind, Robin naturally had to do his job well, and he wouldn't slack off even when he was doing his own thing.

Fortunately, the area is surrounded by seawater, so Robin doesn't need to exert much effort; she just needs to time her attack and knock the zombies into the sea.

Robin took a small sip of his coffee and then looked up at the sky.

In the air, the fossil pterosaur circled listlessly.

Occasionally, flying enemies such as bats and zombies would attack, but it easily dealt with them all. After all, it had A+ level strength, so no matter how many of these minions came, it wouldn't make a difference.

Robin looked away, then glanced at Lucky Egg beside her, who was enjoying afternoon tea with her. She smiled, but couldn't help thinking about her friends.

I wonder how they are doing now?

Is everything going smoothly?

……

Meanwhile, the real battle began on the other side.

Near the center of the island, in the forest scorched by fire.

Moria stared intently at the suddenly appearing orange creature, utterly astonished.

From its appearance, this elf does resemble a dragon-like creature, but what truly surprised him was its domineering aura!

Moria was furious!

It's important to know that Conqueror's Haki is extremely rare; only one in a million people possesses the so-called "King's Qualification."

Even he didn't have it!

It is possible to possess even the product of a mere Devil Fruit.

This is so unfair!

"Guxin! You're too arrogant!"

"You think you can defeat me by releasing just one Pokémon?!"

Moria's voice was shrill, his face contorted with rage, and an unsettling crimson flush appeared on his pale face. He was furious at Guxin's "disrespect".

He knew that Guxin had many Pokémon, but at this moment, Guxin not only did not take action himself, but also only took out one Pokémon.

Are you kidding me!

They are both Shichibukai, yet Guxin dares to look down on him like this!

He was determined to make Guxin receive the punishment he deserved!

"You're right," Guxin shrugged, unconvinced. "I think this is enough to defeat you."

He knew very well how Moria felt at that moment, that he felt he had slighted him, but... didn't he feel the same way?

Dragonite's normal strength is S-rank, but if the affix effect is triggered, it can reach S+ rank, which is the level of a powerful Emperor.

If it were Moria who challenged Kaido back then, it would be easier to deal with... but how can the current "Magic Duck" possibly fight back?

As a Pokémon Master, he can just watch the show from the sidelines.

Dragonite also needs to find a "toy" to practice its skills.

"Hehehehe—damn guy!"

"Guxin!!"

Moria roared, raised his giant scissors, and slashed them down at Dragonite with a loud whooshing sound!

This is his unique weapon.

He usually uses this large pair of scissors to cut out other people's shadows.

Guxin dared to look down on him like that, so he would deal with this elf cleanly and decisively, and then tear Guxin to pieces!

Dragonite remained calm, not even blinking as the giant scissors came slashing towards it.

Although it has a gentle nature and an honest-looking face, that doesn't mean it would go easy on someone like Moria.

The next moment, it suddenly extended its right claw, which was surrounded by dense, deep blue energy, layered like dragon scales, resembling a giant dragon claw.

Dragon Claw!

In an instant, the dragon claw collided with the giant scissors.

In an instant, Moria's expression changed as he felt an astonishing force, as if a mountain was crashing into him.

A terrifying gust of wind blew directly beneath their feet, kicking up huge clouds of dust.

"Kagemusha!"

Moria's eyelids twitched, and in a hurry, he used [Shadow Warrior] to turn his right arm into a dark shadow.

【Shadow Warrior】 allows you to swap positions with your main body, which is very useful for dodging enemy attacks.

This move can also swap parts of your body with your shadow.

Using this move, he transferred the force from his right hand to his shadow clone on the other side. The clone's right arm instantly collapsed, forcing Moria's main body to retreat seven or eight meters.

"It happened in an instant..."

Moria was speechless, his pupils shrinking as he looked at his missing right arm.

What kind of power is this?

He knew the strength of shadow clones best; this level of damage wasn't easy to achieve.

This caused him to change color, and his inner emotions also shifted accordingly.

He probably has to get serious!

In a flash, alarm bells rang in Moriah's mind.

His Observation Haki was frantically warning him that something terrible was about to happen.

Looking up, he saw only a blurry afterimage, and the next moment he was sent flying!

Swah——

Its massive body suddenly flew out and landed directly in the scorching forest, knocking down several large trees that were struggling to stay afloat.

Smoke and dust billowed into the sky!

Dragonite remained where Moria had just been, its pure white energy slowly fading away, turning into tiny fragments that dissipated into the air.

[Lightning Speed]!

This is a rare skill, and not many Pokémon can learn it; Dragonite is one of them.

This skill doesn't have any fancy effects... it's just fast!

Extreme speed can produce amazing results.

Did he send Moria flying in an instant?

That's... amazing speed!

As Yixiao watched the battle from the sidelines, he thought to himself, gaining a deeper understanding of Dragonite's strength.

During this time, he also learned a little about the captain's new elf, but only from its surface aura.

Once he unleashed his full power, Dragonite's strength exceeded his expectations.

No wonder the captain called it "Dragonite".

I chuckled and guessed that this was the origin of Dragonite's name.

From the smoke, Moria's seven-meter-tall figure slowly emerged.

His elegant black suit was now covered in dust and slightly torn, making him look disheveled, which only fueled his anger.

"Hehehe—Guxin!!"

"I will definitely kill you!"

Moria's forehead veins bulged, and three shadow mages instantly appeared in front of him, their figures identical to his and their auras formidable.

Compared to Shadow Warriors, Shadow Mages are better at attacking.

With enough shadow clones on the field, he can constantly switch positions at crucial moments to avoid damage, but his stamina will also be consumed faster.

He no longer cared about anything else; his only thought was to deal with this damned elf!

At Moria's command, the three shadow mages charged out simultaneously, making it a total of four units attacking!

He refused to believe that a mere elf couldn't solve the problem!

How could he defeat Gushin, and how could he defeat Kaido and avenge his previous defeat?
