Chapter 109

Enel was left with a blank expression, lying dazed on the ground.

Trafalgar Law and the members of the Heart Pirates were clearly in much better condition than Enel.

After all, they did not have to take beatings; as long as they completed their daily tasks, getting enough to eat was no problem.

Yet they were pirates after all, devoted to freedom, and now that they were imprisoned, a certain air of despondency clung to them.

When Luo Xing arrived, the Heart Pirates members all turned to look at him.

Some gazes were curious, some angry, some hateful, and some puzzled.

But without exception, deep fear lurked behind all these emotions.

Trafalgar Law remained relatively calm; he looked at Luo Xing and spoke in a low voice:

"A Great Emperor, the Imperial Son-in-Law of the Beasts Pirates, a scientist greater than Vegapunk—what purpose does a figure like you have in capturing us rookie pirates?"

"Because of your Ope Ope no Mi."

Luo Xing answered very frankly, which instead caused Trafalgar Law's tone to falter.

After a moment, Trafalgar Law sneered:

"Do you think I would willingly perform the Eternal Life Surgery for someone like you?"

Luo Xing's expression did not change in the slightest; he said calmly:

"What kind of person am I? I am your benefactor, kid."

Trafalgar Law's greatest enemy was Doflamingo, and it was Luo Xing who had killed Doflamingo.

Law's expression was somewhat dark and unstable.

The other party was right; in terms of killing Doflamingo, the other party truly was his benefactor.

But this favor was not enough to offset the other party's deprivation of the Heart Pirates' freedom!

Luo Xing's voice said:

"Think it over well; he who recognizes the times is a hero."

Luo Xing's gaze, calm yet imbued with some immense authority, swept over Trafalgar Law and the rest of the Heart Pirates, leaving them with one final sentence that made their hearts turn cold:

"My patience is quite limited."

100. The Mischievous Perona, the Utterly Embarrassed Zoro (Please Subscribe)

Leaving the Rabbit Mines Prison, Luo Xing returned to the General's Mansion.

After packing his belongings and bidding farewell with a hug to Yamato, Luo Xing set out with Zoro toward Thriller Bark.

Luo Xing did not bring any other members of the Beasts Pirates; one reason was that it was unnecessary.

Gecko Moria's strength was at the bottom of the Seven Warlords; in the original story, he was even considered by the World Government and Doflamingo unworthy of remaining a Warlord.

However, Moria had previously been able to fight Kaido to a standstill; although he was thoroughly defeated, his strength could not possibly be as weak as it is now.

This could only mean that after all his subordinates were killed by Kaido, Moria began to give up on himself; his body became obese, and his strength decreased instead of increasing.

Another reason for not bringing others was that the Beasts Pirates' reputation was now too loud.

Especially the Three Calamities and the Tobiroppo; they had long been marked by the Marines or other hostile forces.

If Luo Xing brought them along, their whereabouts would be easily exposed.

Currently, within the Beasts Pirates, only Luo Xing, Yamato, and the newly joined Zoro, among a very few others, had true appearances unknown to the Marines and other hostile forces.

The journey was calm and uneventful.

Under Luo Xing's deliberate concealment of his movements, no one knew that this human ATM, the Great Emperor of the Seas with a 5 billion Beli bounty for his capture by the World Government, was no longer in Wano Country but had silently arrived in the Florian Triangle.

"The sky here is truly black."

Zoro said, looking at the clouds filling the sky.

Luo Xing smiled and said, "Because in a sense, this is the true world of the dead."

Zoro felt no fear; instead, a fierce fighting spirit arose within him.

"Is that so? This has piqued the interest of this beast."

The two continued forward.

Suddenly, a sword light flashed from one side.

Zoro reacted extremely quickly, drawing Wado Ichimonji.

"One Sword Style: Ma On!"

The crisp sound of two blades clashing rang out with a clang.

Immediately, a black shadow was knocked flying, followed by a cry of pain.

Having consumed Dragon-level Monster Cell and undergone rigorous training in the Five Times Gravity Chamber during this period, Zoro's strength was not something any ordinary stray cat or dog could challenge.

"Who is it? Dare to attack us—is it Gecko Moria?"

Zoro looked sharply in the direction of the black shadow.

Unexpectedly, it gave him a huge fright.

Because what he saw was actually a skull!

"A living skeleton; are you human or ghost?"

Zoro was truly shocked.

"Ouch, it hurts... it hurts so much."

The skull held his old waist, as if he truly had a waist,

"Mr. Green Hair, your strength is truly formidable."

Zoro demanded, "Speak; who exactly are you?"

"Yo-ho-ho..." The skull stood up, emitting a demonic laugh, and said, "My name is Brook; I am a user of the Yomi Yomi no Mi, a skeleton man who can survive without a body!"

Zoro felt he had truly broadened his horizons; such a person actually existed in this world.

Brook looked at Luo Xing and Zoro and said:

"You are looking for Gecko Moria, aren't you? I advise you to leave here immediately. That fellow is the most terrible devil in the world!"

"He will cut off your shadows and stuff them into zombies. From then on, you will be just like me, never able to appear under the sunlight again."

One of the side effects of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit is that those who lose their shadows cannot be exposed to sunlight, or they will be instantly burned to death.

Hearing Brook's words, Zoro sheathed his sword and said confidently:

"The most terrible devil in the world? What my blade craves most is the blood of devils!"

However, the moment the words left his mouth, a white ghost passed straight through Zoro's body without warning.

The next second, Zoro, who had been so confident the second before, knelt on the ground, pounding the earth with both hands:

"My existence is the world's greatest mistake. I do not deserve to wield such a fine blade."

Every hair on Brook's body stood on end; he turned and ran:

"It's the Ghost Girl! The Ghost Girl under Moria's command has arrived!"

Once struck by a Ghost Girl's spirit, no matter how powerful the warrior, they would instantly kneel on the ground like Zoro, filled with boundless negative emotions.

Brook knew this all too well and dared not stay.

But his speed was still too slow; a ghost had already passed through him.

Brook knelt on the ground just like Zoro: "I am merely a skeleton, not even as good as a mackerel. I might as well be dead."

"Hahaha! Hahaha!"

A laugh even more demonic than Brook's came from the sky.

Luo Xing, whose expression had hardly changed, looked up.

A strange girl with pink twin-tails, large eyes, red lips, and an umbrella in her hand floated down.

Several white ghosts drifted around the strange girl. She looked at Luo Xing and giggled:

"You too, kneel down for this Young Lady!"

Wooo~

Several white ghosts flew toward Luo Xing in unison.

Luo Xing sized up the girl before him; the twin-tails struck him as quite novel.

It would probably be very convenient to grab them from behind for leverage.

Currently, none of his women were suitable for wearing twin-tails.

The girl's beauty was also quite lovely, and her personality belonged to the quirky and mischievous style.

Luo Xing had always believed that every woman was a different flower.

Luo Xing was a lover of flowers, especially fond of collecting these different kinds.

He lightly tapped the ground beneath his feet, effortlessly dodging those ghosts, and arrived before the girl, offering a faint smile as he said:
