Kaido, the father-in-law, used monster cells to create the strongest Beast.

He went straight to Moriah.

His eyes were calm, carrying the look of a strong person looking down on a weak person.

Moria was awakened by Perona's crying.

He was startled.

The Shadow Spear was one of his few powerful moves, yet Luo Xing crushed it with one hand. How could the opponent be so strong?

Moria's expression was a mix of fear and anger.

Back in the day, he directly challenged Kaido of the Beasts.

Even though he suffered a crushing defeat, he was still a formidable figure.

But today,

Was he actually being looked down upon by Kaido's son-in-law, a mere junior?

Moriah could hardly bear this humiliation; the muscles in his face twitched in waves.

Seeing Luo Xing approaching him, Moria angrily threw a punch and roared:

Who do you think I am?!

"When I roamed the seas, you weren't even born yet!"

However, his angry punch was easily knocked away by Luo Xing's casual slap.

Moria rolled awkwardly more than ten meters away, blood stained the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

why?

Why is this young man so strong? How could the mighty Gecko Moria be completely powerless against him?

That's impossible! Even when facing Kaido back then, Moria could have fought him for dozens of rounds!

"Lord Moria!"

When Perona saw that Moria was injured, she rushed over and glared at Luo Xing with her red eyes.

"You are not allowed to harm Lord Moria again!"

Luo Xing ignored Perona, glancing at Moria on the ground, and slowly said:

"Are you wondering why I'm so strong?"

Moria gritted his teeth.

Although they didn't nod in agreement, it was tantamount to tacit consent.

He was indeed extremely puzzled by this.

Luo Xing's voice said:

"It's not that I'm too strong, it's that you're too weak, Gecko Moria."

Upon hearing this, Moria's body suddenly trembled violently, and his face turned extremely ugly.

Luo Xing looked down at Moria with a pitying gaze and continued:

"More than ten years ago, although you were defeated by my father-in-law Kaido, you could still be called a powerful and ruthless figure back then."

"But now you are obese, arrogant, and have been hiding on this terrifying three-masted ship for ten years without ever fighting anyone."

"Moria, you've become so weak that you don't even deserve the title of Shichibukai anymore!"

As the saying goes, "to kill someone is to destroy their spirit." Moria's eyes turned bloodshot and his body trembled as he was provoked by Luo Xing's words.

He gritted his teeth, his fists clenched tightly, and his breathing became heavy.

"You bastard……"

“However, although you are weak now, you are not useless,” Luo Xing said. “Your zombie army will be of great use to me.”

"So Moria, I can give you a chance to submit to my Beasts Pirates."

Moria suddenly threw his head back and burst into laughter. Though disheveled, his eyes still shone with arrogance as he shrieked:

"To expect me to submit to all the beasts, to Kaido? That's a complete joke!"

"Even if I die, I will never do such a thing as surrendering to my enemy!"

"I am Gecko Moria!"

It must be said that even though Moria's strength is not what it used to be, he still has a bit of the aura of a ruthless hero.

Making them bow their heads is not so easy.

Luo Xing was not too surprised by Moria's answer.

He remembered that in the original story, Blackbeard, who became one of the Four Queens, also tried to recruit Moria, but he didn't know if he succeeded.

However, judging from the current situation, Luo Xing has likely failed.

"Your answer is regrettable; then you might as well just die."

Luo Xing pulled out a small pistol and aimed it at Moria.

"do not want!"

Perona screamed loudly and stood in front of Luo Xing.

This usually spoiled and willful little firecracker had her big eyes brimming with tears, and her delicate face was full of pleading.

"Fifth...Fifth Emperor Luo Xing, please don't kill Lord Moria, okay? I'll grant you whatever you ask for!"

For Perona, Moria, though not her biological father, was almost like one.

In the original work.

Upon learning that Moria was still alive, Perona immediately left Hawkeye's territory and traveled a great distance to find Moria.

Anyway,

Despite his many faults, Moriah was undeniably good to his subordinates, earning their willing loyalty.

Perona's pleas only made Moria feel more humiliated.

When did Moriah fall so low that his men had to beg for his life?

"Get out of the way, Perona!"

Moria growled:

"I'd rather die than beg for mercy from anyone!"

“Lord Moria…” Perona looked at Moria with teary eyes.

At this time.

Absalom, who had just been stunned by Luo Xing's Overlord Haki, has also woken up.

Absalom suddenly knelt down at Luo Xing's feet and kowtowed heavily:

"Your Majesty, please kill me! Don't harm Lord Moria!"

This scene reminded Luo Xing of the Straw Hat Pirates being confronted by Bartholomew Kuma after defeating Moria.

Kuma pretends to kill Luffy, and Zoro and Sanji both rush to die for Luffy.

Zoro then uttered a classic line from a true man: "Nothing happened."

When Moria saw Perona pleading for him and Absalom kneeling before him, even this ruthless and arrogant man couldn't help but shed tears.

"You two...why won't you let me die in peace..."

Luo Xing's calm voice rang out:

"It was a touching scene, but it did nothing to change the reality."

Luo Xing passed through Perona's soul and walked up to Moria, pointing his pistol at Moria's forehead.

Perona and Absalom both cried out in terror, "No!"

Luo Xing acted as if he hadn't heard, and said to Moria:

"Guess if my gun is loaded?"

"what?"

Moriah, who was going through a painful struggle, was taken aback by these words.

Luo Xing said to himself:

"This is a three-shot gun with only one bullet in it. I will fire it twice."

"If you are unfortunate enough to be shot and die, your men will also die."

"If you are lucky enough to survive, your men will still die."

"Then let's begin this deadly game."

Moria was stunned, as were his men behind him, including Perona, Absalom, and Hogback.

bang~

Luo Xing pulled the trigger.
