A foreigner's journey

In the dark hall full of Gothic-style decorations, dim candlelight dotted the darkness like stars.

There are three wide screens placed directly above the hall, and next to them are three huge weird phone bugs. At this time, the phone bug's eyes radiated images and were projected on the screen, and the scenes of the terrifying three-masted sailing ship's [Sea Ahead], [Inner Waters], and [Shadow Mansion] were played in real time.

"Hehehehe... Let's fight, let's fight, let's fight. Whether it's the abominable general candidate "Tea Dolphin" or the Beast Pirates who deserve to go to hell, it's best for them all to die! Hehehehe!"

The huge figure slumped down among the soft cushions on the throne in the hall, with his hands behind his head and bursts of eerie laughter.

This is a giant man nearly 7 meters tall. There are two protrusions like devil's horns on the side of his forehead. There are cross sutures from forehead to neck that resemble suture wounds. He has no chin. The most conspicuous thing is the dark red star. Shallots. The complicated Gothic-style dress was stretched tightly by her bloated belly. Compared with the long and narrow arms like a gorilla, her two feet looked extremely short.

[Former King Shichibukai], the terrifying three-masted sailing captain with a bounty of 320 million berries, the 'Shadow Mage' Moonlight Moria!

Since being deprived of the title of King Shichibukai a year ago and narrowly escaping from Doflamingo's attack during the [Supreme War], Moonlight Moria has been wandering the second half of the Grand Line with his loyal subordinates. In the 'new world'.

Thanks to the world's largest pirate ship, the "Terror Barque", Moonlight Moria does not need to occupy islands or territory, and naturally has a movable fortress. This allows him to flexibly avoid the navy's pursuit, and at the same time, he can flexibly shuttle among the territories of major pirate groups.

Everyone knows that Moonlight Moria's ability is disgusting. The sea of ​​zombies that are constantly fighting more and more is not a scene that ordinary forces can handle. And the big pirates who are divided on one side are too lazy to go head-to-head with Moonlight Moria. There is no benefit in winning. , lose...well, it's impossible to lose.

All in all, Moonlight Moria, who had regained her pirate status, was living an increasingly carefree life this year.

Until two days ago, the candidate "Tea Dolphin" led four naval warships to seize the opportunity to block the terrifying three-masted sailing ship in the Stormsong waters. The latter took advantage of the sudden strong wind to escape, and then there was a life-and-death pursuit that lasted for two days and two nights.

By coincidence or not, Heather and his party, who had just sailed away from Dressrosa for less than four days, were bumped into by these two parties.

Speaking of which, I have to mention the grudge between Moonlight Moria and the Beast Pirates. Twenty-two years ago, the young and energetic Moonlight Moriah was a rising supernova of that era. Passionate and ambitious, he led the "Moonlight Pirates" to invade the country of Wano and fight against the "Hundred Beasts" who occupied this place. A huge battle broke out among the pirates.

The outcome of the battle was that all of Moonlight Moria's trustworthy and loyal partners were killed by Kaido in front of his eyes, and even he himself had his jaw and confidence shattered. After barely escaping with her life, Moonlight Moria has since become a gloomy otaku, hiding in a terrifying three-masted sailboat, and believes that only "zombies that cannot die" are the best companions.

Moonlight Moria's eyes immediately turned red when she saw the flag of the Beasts Pirates. She had planned to fight to the death with these Beasts Pirates warships regardless. But then he thought, why not let the two sides be trapped in the inner waters and fight to the death? It is absolutely impossible for the navy to join forces with the Beast Pirates. After they decide the outcome, wouldn't it be nice to personally take action against the remaining bruised victor?

"Hiss, ssssss, sssss! Master, I haven't found any reward orders for those little villains of the Beast Pirates!"

The weirdo who looked like a compass egg rubbed his hands and stood not far from Moonlight Moria. He smiled strangely and said, "I can't figure out why Kaido of the Beasts would send out these little brats, blah blah blah!"

This man's name is Hogback, one of the three weirdos under Moonlight Moria, the creator of the zombie army, and a genius surgeon.

Moonlight Moria swayed her short legs and rested her hands leisurely: "You don't understand, Hogback. That bastard Kaido has a great obsession with the number and names of elite cadres. [Three Disasters and Six Sons], This cadre level has existed since twenty-two years ago. He may allow the personnel replacement of the [Three Disasters] and [Fei Liubao], but he will never increase or decrease the number of cadres. The one twenty-two years ago 'Drought' has long been replaced by today's fish-man imps, and [Six Sons] must have replaced them more."

"So, so, those three brats are the new 'Flying Sixth Cell'?" Huogubak immediately understood what Moonlight Moria meant.

"You are so young when you are able to command so many soldiers, you will only be a 'Flying Sixth Cell'."

Moonlight Moria yawned: "The strength of the members of the Flying Six Cells varies greatly. The strong ones are even qualified to replace the big poster, while the weak ones may not even be able to defeat those ordinary naval officers. I just don't know this. How capable are these three brats... Ha~yawn!"

"Hiss! According to what you say, Master, those three brats of the Beast Pirates will probably be killed by the 'Tea Dolphin' in one encounter?"

"[Flying Six Cells] will definitely be a special kind of 'animal type'. This is Kaido's absolute obsession."

Moonlight Moria is very clear about Kaido's preferences: "The biggest characteristic of the animal system is that it can withstand beatings, not to mention those rare species. If the three of them join forces, they can cause a lot of trouble to the navy. This will be a protracted war." . Hehe hehe... It seems that the construction facilities in the internal water area have to be renovated again. Are the funds still sufficient, Hogback?"

Hogback took out a small account book from his pocket and flipped through it: "It hit the bottom half a month ago. Absalom became a so-called freelance writer in order to earn royalties to replenish the pirate group's funds, and he kept sending back This is a lot of money to barely maintain the basic operation of the terrifying three-masted sailboat. Let me see...Master, your snacks and Gothic clothes are the bulk of your expenses."

"Well……"

Moonlight Moria stiffened for a moment, drooped her eyes and sighed: "I know, I know, starting from next month we will reduce the snacks by 30%... no, 20% of the snacks, okay?"

"It's 'next month' again!? We must reduce the snack ration by half starting tomorrow!" Hogbak was furious: "No more gothic dresses, wear old ones!"

"No!!!" Moonlight Moria's wailing voice echoed in the hall.

"By the way, Master. You said Kaido would never add seats to the big sign and flying six cells, but what if he really added them?" Hogback asked curiously.

"Hehehehe... That means that the Beast Pirates are going to have a real 'Crown Prince'. Okay, I'm going to take a nap, and you can call me again if necessary... Huh? What is that? ?”

Moonlight Moria was about to get up and go back to sleep when her eyes were suddenly attracted by the central screen.

The next moment, dazzling lightning illuminated the entire dark hall through the screen!

PS: There is a light spot in the center of the left eye's field of vision, which has affected daily vision. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow and hope the doctor won't tell me too bad news.
