Codex Pirates

Chapter 342 Fragile Alliance

Moriah and his group seem to be passively waiting for their prey to come to their door. In fact, they have gradually created a unique pattern over the years.

First, use the bait released in advance, such as the signal flare disguised as the sacrifice of the sea god, to lure the ships sailing near the magic triangle waters to reveal their whereabouts, and then drive the terrifying three sailboats to move towards the target.

Moria currently has three non-zombie capable generals. In addition to Hobuck, a strange doctor who made zombies for him and has no fighting ability, there are also "Princess Mononoke" Perona, and the transparent man Absalom.

Among them, Perona is just a girl who has just turned sixteen this year. She is coquettish and self-willed, and has no extraordinary fighting skills and awareness. She can become an important cadre that Moria relies on because of her special and practical devil fruit ability—— The fruit of ghosts.

The mysterious ghost that drove the sailors of the Starlight crazy, and made Brooke, who is skilled in swordsmanship, lose his fighting power in an instant, was summoned by her using the fruit ability. And while passing through the human body, it can cause an extremely strong negative emotion in people, and make people lose their fighting spirit for a certain period of time.

These ghosts can also fly. In addition, they can easily pass through obstacles such as walls and hulls. They can be said to be excellent assistants for reconnaissance.

Perona's detection ability allows the terrifying three-masted sailing ship to bite its prey tightly, change its traveling target at any time in the dense fog, and then wait for an opportunity to create disturbances on the target ship, so that the terrifying three-masted sailing ship has time and opportunity to lock the prey around the sailing ship Inside the sluice-like gate.

If the prey is stubborn and refuses to land on the island, then Moria will send Abu Salom, who is also a devil fruit capable person, to eat the transparent fruit, so that the whole body can become transparent and undetectable. , Destroy the ship, secretly injure the enemy, so that the prey have to land on this zombie-filled island.

The ship doctor who was seriously injured on the Starlight and had to venture to the island to seek medical treatment was written by Absalom.

The reason why Moriah and his team took so many twists and turns in catching prey is because Moriah's devil fruit ability has a drawback, that is, after capturing the shadow, the original owner of the shadow cannot die, otherwise his shadow will also die. Corresponding disappearance, so in addition to catching the prey, Moria must also ensure that the prey can survive, and it is best not to return to the terrifying three-masted sailing ship to add chaos.

Detection, destruction, production, plus many zombies serving as combat power, over the years, any prey that has stepped into the magic triangle sea area and been targeted by the terrifying three-masted sailing ship will be killed by his subordinates without the presence of Moriah. solve.

Only after the prey landed on the island, and after a series of trials to identify the target's strength, would Moria stay in his "working area" bored in the large-scale attack that started at twelve o'clock at night, waiting for everything to be dealt with The subordinates sent the target to the eyes, and then lightly waved the scissors to cut off the shadow of the target.

Normally, Moria is either eating or sleeping. When there is no prey on the island, he often sleeps for several days at a time, and then replenishes food for several days at a time. Due to exercise, Moriah's body gradually became bloated, and his protruding belly made him look like a pregnant woman.

Moriah is 6.9 meters tall, which is equivalent to a little giant. If the bed for him sleeps with the curtains drawn, it can almost serve as an ordinary person's bedroom, but when Moriah is lying on it, he can still Such a large bed is fully occupied, which shows the degree of obesity.

When the zombie used to report the letter ran to Moria's bed, he still had to look up when facing Moria who was lying flat.

"Lord Moria! Lord Moria!" The zombie who reported the message shouted loudly, dancing and dancing. Seeing that Moria was still sleeping, the zombie put a sharp stone from his pocket and pointed at Moria. Throw away the balloon-sized snot bubble on your head.

When the snot bubble burst, it was like a balloon being punctured, making a "pop" sound. This scene happened to other people, and it would definitely be very funny, making the audience laugh out loud. Shaking, because Moria, who was sleeping like a dead pig just now, suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes and turned to look at him.

"Mo, Lord Moria, you have been sleeping for two days. We have prepared enough food for you. A new batch of prey has arrived on the island. The night attack is about to begin. Lord Perona asked me to inform you. "The messenger zombie said respectfully.

Moria struggled to sit up from the bed, leaned lazily against the head of the bed, and said wistfully, "You woke me up too early. I dreamed that I became the Pirate King, but it was just a dream."

"This day won't be too far away." The messenger zombie flattered.

Moria smiled and seemed to be in a better mood, and asked, "Is there any high-quality prey this time?"

"Master Perona said that among the people who came to the island this time, there is a very powerful skeleton swordsman. She thinks that this person's shadow should be barely worthy of that warrior's corpse." The messenger zombie said.

Moria continued to ask, "What about the others?"

"Master Perona and Absalom both said that they are just small characters, not worthy of attention, and no one can compare to that skeleton swordsman." The zombie said.

Moria yawned, and finally moved slowly to the bed, got off the bed, and said with a pun, "Then I can enjoy the delicious food you offer with peace of mind."

"Master Moria..." Seeing that Moria was about to leave, the messenger zombie hesitated to speak, "Master Absalom said that there is a navy among these people."

Moria didn't stop walking: "So what? It's not that I haven't dealt with the navy, it's just a good dog of the world government, nothing to be afraid of."

Shichibukai is the seven great pirates recognized by the world government. In terms of preferences, it is unrealistic for a group of maritime criminals who were originally opposed to the navy to adapt immediately after changing their identities. Like Moriah, he has a certain attitude toward the navy. There is a deep-rooted contempt and hostility, and Moriah has been Shichibukai for a long time. In his limited contact and understanding, the attitude of other Shichibukai towards the navy is basically the same as his.

In terms of political status, the Shichibukai is nominally on an equal footing with the navy. For this reason, at the meeting between the Shichibukai and the navy, the government even set up a round table without a chair. In most cases, both sides are equal. Settle disputes and reach opinions through negotiation.

After all, the world government considered many political issues when the system of King Xia Qiwuhai was established, and politics often required compromises.

For this reason, the government allows a certain degree of "sacrifice", whether it is the release of the murloc Aaron, or the many ships that Moria attacks every year, or even the killing of individual navies. In order to maintain the system of Qibuhai, the world government will You can choose to ignore it.

It’s just that the government’s idea is good, but it’s a pity that the rebellious pirates don’t care about these formalistic things at all. They rarely attend meetings. I know that this round table meeting has not been called several times.

In this case, the Shichibukai, including Moria, naturally don't pay much attention to the navy.

Night of the Living Dead, The Walking Dead, Moonlight Panic, are all the names of horror-themed film and television dramas. In fact, there are many horror-themed stalks in this part of the original book, such as zombies.
