HxH in One Piece World

Chopper was so frightened that he fainted, which made Maud a question mark.

Even if the way he appeared was too sudden, Chopper's psychological quality was too scum.

Maud has no idea what kind of terrible image he has created for Chopper all the way from Alabasta, and naturally he can't understand Chopper's feelings.

"Chopper..."

Seeing Chopper fainted, Luffy thought it was Maud who did something, his eyes shrank and suddenly moved.

Without even looking, he punched in the side.

But when the arm was stretched out, it suddenly froze, unable to move forward.

"What's the matter...the body can't move..."

Luffy was stunned.

No matter how hard he exerted his strength, his body felt as if he had been hit by a fixation technique, unable to move.

"Because your shadow was 'stepped' by me, do you know what that means?"

Maud calmly looked at Luffy who was maintaining his punching posture, and said lightly: "It means that as long as I want, I can make you fall to the ground at any time."

Saying that, while Luffy struggled and his veins burst out, Maude reached out and grabbed Luffy's shoulder.

"I heard from Sunny that Sabo chose to stay on the island to help you with special training, but now, if you don't say anything else, you really haven't made any progress in your 'sight'."

"hateful……"

Luffy frantically urged his power, but his body didn't respond, and he still couldn't move.

"If you can use the fourth gear..."

Luffy shouted in his heart.

Maud looked at Luffy's unwilling face.

Although Luffy was controlled by the shadow, the movement generated by Luffy's struggles will be truthfully fed back to Mord.

Strictly speaking, according to the strength gap between the two sides, the shadow's control effect is not absolute.

But with Maude's current strength,

There are only a handful of people in this world who can break free after stepping on his shadow by virtue of the difference in strength.

The current Luffy is obviously not in this list.

"Don't be so reactive, it makes me seem like I'm here to trouble you. Besides, I'm not here to find you, but... well, you don't understand."

Maud retracted his hand, released the shadow control, and patted Luffy on the shoulder, then walked towards the inland of the island.

Through seeing, hearing, and color perception, he has already grasped where Robin is.

The main purpose of coming here this time, in addition to catching up with Sabo and Usopp, is to ask Robin to interpret the historical text that he just got.

"Fourth gear!"

Maud walked out more than ten meters, and suddenly came the low voice of Luffy behind him.

"Oh?"

Maud stopped and turned to look at Luffy who had directly turned on the fourth gear.

It's only been a few months since the top war, has Luffy already developed the fourth gear?

Maud carefully looked at Luffy in fourth gear.

The body that originally looked a little thin, now swelled in a large circle, becoming sturdy, as if air had been injected into the bones and muscles.

In addition, there is no dark red mark on the completely changed body.

In this way, this form seems to be an unfinished product.

In other words, with Luffy's current domineering accomplishments, it is still impossible to incorporate domineering into the fruit's ability characteristics.

Or maybe it's because the domineering isn't deep enough, so I haven't realized it yet.

"Didn't I just say, I didn't come here to find..."

Looking at Luffy who was about to move, Maud stopped abruptly in the middle of his words.

"never mind……"

He could feel Luffy's fighting intent on his words, and he knew clearly that no matter what he said now, he couldn't stop Luffy's intention to do something.

This guy... is he going to use him to verify the progress over this period of time?

Shadow flow, Pisces flow!

Maud shook his head slightly, and in silence, controlled the shadow to cover his whole body.

With the domineering intervention of Armament, black and red shadow patterns appeared on Maud's exposed skin.

"If you want to try it, just try it, just don't lose your 'gut'."

Maud looked at Luffy calmly and muttered to himself in his heart.

Luffy saw that Mord used the ability of the shadow, and the fighting spirit in his eyes skyrocketed.

At this moment, Sanji and Zoro, who sensed the movement, came one after another.

"Luffy, Chopper!"

After seeing Chopper who fell to the ground unaware of the situation and Luffy who had used fourth gear, Sanji and Zoro's expressions suddenly changed.

The latter even pulled out the long knife directly.

"Calm down."

Sabo, who followed, stretched out his hands to hold Sanji and Zoro's shoulders.

"Chopper just passed out, and it's fine."

A ray of red light flashed across Sabo's eyes, and he calmly said:

"And Luffy is mostly taking this opportunity to try out new abilities with Mord. Although it is hard to guarantee that he will be angry, if the opponent is Mord, he can still feel at ease."

"..."

Hearing Sabo's words, Sanji and Zoro slightly restrained their hostility.

The reason why they reacted excessively was because the presence of Maud put too much pressure on them.

Both Maud and Luffy were aware of Sabo's arrival in the confrontation.

But Luffy only has Maud in his eyes now, so he didn't distract Sabo and the others.

Maud tilted his head to look at Sabo, nodded slightly towards Sabo, and said hello first, then looked at Luffy, calmly said:

"It's better to attack with the idea of ​​killing me, otherwise you might not be able to hold on for even a second."

"Even if you don't tell me, I know..."

Luffy opened his mouth slightly, spurting out wisps of steaming hot air, and his large hands, which became generous, made a left-push palm and a right-clenched fist.

This is an offensive stance that looks quite imposing.

Maud didn't say anything more, and with a clang, he slowly pulled out the autumn water and hung down on his side at will.

Bang!

Luffy's body flew up into the sky, his feet trotted fast in the air, making bursts of air bursts, but he used techniques such as moon steps.

After flying into the air, Luffy's fists and even his thick arms were like springs, squeezing inwards constantly, and it looked more like a turtle head shrunk into its carapace.

Through this form of squeezing, the fists and arms covered in the color of arms are frantically accumulating power.

Fourth gear. Rhino horn gun!

Boom-!

The double fists whose strength was accumulated to the apex suddenly burst into a terrifying speed, cut through the sky, and came to Maud's eyes in an instant.

"I'm missing something..."

Between the lightning and flint, Maud did not exchange positions with the shadow icon set on Luffy, nor did he make a horizontal knife block, but planned to use his body to resist Luffy's fourth-speed attack.

Through the detection ability of Hunter's Note, what Maud saw on Luffy was a seven-and-a-half-star Devil Fruit ability star.

This shows that Luffy's physique and domineering are below seven and a half stars.

And Maud has only recently been promoted to four nine stars, so he wants to use his body to resist the next full attack of Luffy to see what the result will be.

Bang!

Maud let Luffy's horn cannon bombard his chest.

The violent power oscillated from the fist covered with jet-black armed color.

A circle of air waves, with Maud's chest as a dot, swarmed wildly in all directions.

"Hit, eh!?"

Luffy didn't have time to be surprised, but he saw that Maud's body was as stable as a mountain, and he didn't even take a step back.

It was as if he had attacked with all his strength just now, but he did not touch Maud at all.

"It didn't work at all..."

Luffy's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Maud who was unscathed by the rhino horn cannon.

You must know that the rhino horn cannon is the most powerful move after he has figured out the fourth gear.

On the premise of hitting Maud head-on, he didn't think about directly defeating Maud with this move, but he thought it would at least cause trouble for Maud.

The results that could happen in front of him made Luffy unacceptable.

"The average ability is about seven stars, but you can play this kind of power, you should be proud."

Maud, who resisted Luffy's attack unscathed, raised his left hand calmly, grabbed Luffy's wrist, and yanked inwardly.

Being pulled so hard, Luffy, who was in the air, flew directly to Maud.

Maud's wrist holding the knife flipped, facing Luffy who was flying in the face.

At the moment when the two crossed, Maud slashed Luffy's body with his knife.

When Maud appeared on the flat ground more than ten meters away, Luffy, who crossed with Maud, was hit hard.

In an instant, the body with its backs and waists, like a deflated balloon, retracted to its original size in just a few breaths, and then smashed straight to the ground.

Bang!

Luffy landed heavily, making a loud bang, sending up a lot of smoke.

Through the smoke and dust, Luffy could see that Luffy had lost consciousness with his mouth open.

not far away.

The battle that ended in an instant left Sanji and Zoro stunned.

One move to be seconds?

How could this be?

He had gone through several months of hard work, but in front of that man, why was he still so powerless.

"Luffy!"

Sanji and Zoro rushed over to check Luffy's situation.

So is Saab.

It's just that Sabo "sees" that Maud is Luffy who slashes with the back of a sword, so he doesn't care as much as Sanji and Zoro.

but……

Sabo was also a little shocked when he saw that Luffy, who had been practicing hard for several months, was killed by Maud in one second.

"After several months of hard work, Luffy's strength has undoubtedly been significantly improved, but Morde has also become stronger, stronger than when he was on the Marin Fando battlefield!"

Sabo suppressed the vibration in his heart and came to Luffy's side at the fastest speed.

"Moreover, the improvement of Maud's strength is not a little bit... If Luffy's growth in the past few months is equivalent to taking a hundred steps, then Maud has taken at least a thousand steps. "

"The gap is too obvious... So even if Luffy uses his full strength, he can't hurt Morde at all, let alone win."

After checking several times, Sabo confirmed that Luffy was okay, and then raised his eyes to look at Maud not far away.

Maud walked slowly, ignoring the piercing eyes of Sanji and Zoro, looking at Sabo, smiling: "Long time no see, Sabo."

With that said, Maud lowered his head slightly and looked at Luffy who lost consciousness.

"Don't worry, just now, I used the back of the knife, and I still used the force."

"Ok, I know."

Sabo nodded and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, my brother caused you trouble."

Relying on his knowledge, Sabo had a general understanding of the situation before he came to the scene, and also knew that this battle was actually provoked by Luffy.

Maud waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's just a 'stick', it's no big deal."

"Wood stakes..."

Maud's self-deprecating statement made Sabo smile wryly, and then asked, "By the way, how did you get here? Did you ask Sonny for a life card?"

"No."

Maud shook his head, immediately looked at Luffy, and smiled: "I left a shadow mark on Luffy, the function is similar to the life card, so I can find it here."

"So it is."

Sabo was taken aback.

This island does not have the conditions to create a recording pointer, so to find this island accurately, you can only use a method similar to a life card.

And the shadow mark that Maud said was actually no different from the life card.

"Shadow..."

Sanji and Zoro were secretly surprised, first glanced at Maud, and then looked at Luffy.

It's not good news to have been imprinted without knowing it.

Immediately, Sanji and Zoro quietly checked Luffy's body.

After a while, they found a black spot the size of a fingernail on the side of Luffy's shoulder. If they didn't look carefully, they thought it was a black mole.

"With such a big black spot, Luffy, an idiot, didn't notice it at all?"

Sanji and Zoro were speechless.

At this time, Chopper woke up on his own.

"Ah, what happened to Luffy?"

Seeing Luffy lying on the ground, Chopper overcame his fear of Maud and hurried to Luffy's side to check on Luffy's situation.

"Have you been stunned by the impact? Fortunately, the injury is not serious."

After checking it carefully, Chopper felt a little relieved.

at the same time.

Nami and the others were attracted by the fight just now.

"Maud?!!!"

"Master!!!"

"Idol!!!"

After seeing Maud, everyone reacted differently.

It seems that it was because of their shouts that Luffy, who was knocked out by Maud for a while, suddenly opened his eyes, bounced off the ground, and subconsciously made a punch to Maud at any time.

But soon, Luffy realized something, his raised fists slowly dropped a little, and he said blankly: "Did I lose..."

Seeing Luffy's rare loss of reaction, Zoro and the others around him didn't know what to say for a while.

Because Luffy was killed by Maud in a single face-to-face, so they just wanted to comfort Luffy, but they didn't know where to start.

Ten minutes later...

"Luffy, didn't you notice a black spot on your arm when you took a shower!?"

The members of the Straw Hat Pirates who knew the general situation basically stared at Luffy with wide-eyed eyes in disbelief.

Faced with the questions from the crowd, Luffy, who managed to adjust his mood with great difficulty, lowered his head and said cautiously, "I thought this was a mole that grew."

"???"

The crowd was immediately stunned.

Maud laughed.

"Ah la la, it's quite lively."

Suddenly, a wisp of ice ling came and gathered at a very fast speed into the appearance of a green pheasant.

"Um!?"

"It's Aokiji!!!"

Everyone who was unable to complain about Luffy suddenly changed their expressions, especially Robin, whose face faded almost instantly.

This group of people doesn't seem to know the fact that Aokiji has become a member of Maud's command.
