Sanji Versus Moria;
"You bastard Straw Hats. I never provoked you. Why are you targeting me?" Moria screamed as he looked at Sanji.
He was sitting inside the body of a giant. Unlike usual giants, this was gigantic, reaching a height above sixty meters.
There were several lightning marks on this body, but Moria didn't care. Since this was already a dead body.
"Indeed, you didn't provoke us, but you are a pirate. You have been collecting shadows of different pirates for so long. So, you understand."
Sanji replied with a chill attitude.
Normally, the Straw Hat Pirates wouldn't cause trouble for others unless others cause trouble for them.
But this time, they were truly picking a fight against the Moria Pirates, and looking at the situation, none of them felt bad about it.
"You are right. Since I have become a pirate, I should've expected this. But since you have become a pirate. You should also expect death."
Moria was furious. He just lost two of his crewmates, and he was already having a hard time fighting Sanji.
If it wasn't for Oars's body, he wouldn't be able to fight on equal ground.
Originally, he planned to use his Doppelganger to fight Sanji. But Sanji's Haki was very strong.
And since doppelgänger was made out of his devil fruit, Haki had great restraint against it. Although it wasn't as good as sea stone, it was still good.
More importantly, he couldn't use body body-swapping technique with his doppelgänger since Sanji could instantly appear in front of him.
Other techniques weren't useful either, since Sanji was stronger and faster than him.
The only thing he could use was either Shadow Revolution to control Oars with his shadow or Shadow Asgard to swallow the shadows of everyone around him and gain a massive strength boost.
But the latter was his trump card that he wasn't going to use so easily.
Instead, he planned to use Oars to fight Sanji. He just needed to keep his shadow in the Oars and control it.
Since Sanji couldn't defeat it directly, he just needed to wait until Sanji lost his stamina to fight.
Then, he could capture Sanji's shadow and use it to power up Oars and fight other Straw Hats.
Unfortunately, he underestimated Sanji's durability.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sanji turned into lightning and rushed forward. He appeared in front of Oars and kicked its neck.
But with its immense body, the lightning kick wasn't enough to damage it.
'If I use powerful attacks, I can cause some damage, but that would cost me some stamina. But if I don't do that, I won't be able to win this battle.'
Sanji released a deep breath and muttered.
"Let's take some risk!"
Siiin!
He wrapped his legs with Armament Haki and started spinning. As he spun, his feet generated heat and slowly revealed flames.
These flames covered his right leg, but he had used Armament Haki on top of turning his leg into lightning.
Because his leg was able to remain stable despite being lightning thanks to Armament Haki, he could use the flames generated by his leg to heat the lightning.
Slowly, changing the color and turning red. As if the heat from his foot had influenced the lightning on his body.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Sanji disappeared. Although this kind of lightning didn't increase his speed, he was still the fastest Straw Hat.
Before Moria could even react, Sanji was already in front of him. His body was spinning in mid-air like a wheel as he finally gained enough momentum and struck Oars on his stomach.
[Wheel of Recipe]
Bang!
The kick not only contained his power, but it also had a special effect.
Burning! The heat from his lightning burnt the skin of Oars, tearing through its stomach and reaching Moria, who was inside.
"Gah! You bastard, you destroyed my best creation."
Moria screamed inside the Oars' body as it was being burned from the inside.
At this moment, Sanji had retreated in front of Moria while floating in the air.
He simply looked at Moria and said.
"You are weak, Moria. Even the Vice Admiral of the Marines was able to react to my attack. So, let's end this."
Sanji suddenly disappeared in front of him.
Moria realized Sanji was going to use his most powerful skill. This was normal since he just said he would end this battle.
But how could he let Sanji?
He once fought against Kaido and managed to live. Even if he lost everything in that battle, he managed to survive.
How could he die in the battle against a bunch of teenagers that just came out of nowhere?
Moria knew he had to tank Sanji's attack since he didn't have strong Observation Haki to sense Sanji's movement.
So, he came out of Oars's body and started collecting the shadows from all around.
At this moment, his shadow left his body and started impaling every other shadow around him. It didn't include Straw Hats' Shadows but rather every shadow that he had captured before.
Although many of them were freed or destroyed by the Straw Hats, there were still a lot of them remaining.
[Shadow Asgard]
As Moria roared, those shadows merged into his shadow. His body began to swell as he got physically bigger and stronger.
Since he took only five hundred Shadows, he didn't lose complete control over his shadows, but he did lose speed due to his massive size.
Of course, he didn't care about it.
He opened his palm, and a large shadow sword appeared in his hand. Because of the experiences of those shadows, he was able to ignite his previous Observation Haki.
He sensed a powerful force coming towards him. Without any hesitation, he covered his shadow sword with Armament and thrust it forward.
At this moment, a red light moved straight towards him.
[Horn Blade Shadow]
[Final Shot- Lightning of Sun God]
The sword and feet collided in the middle.
Moria, who had consumed over five hundred shadows and received their strength.
Sanji used Armament Haki, Leg Skills, Lightning Fruit, and Flames to their maximum power.
A spinning drill versus a dark sword.
Bang!
The collision created sparks that lit up the entire ship. The red lightning scattered all around.
The dark energy began swelling from the shadows. Even though Moria had consumed over five hundred shadows, it wasn't enough to destroy Sanji.
On the other hand, Sanji also couldn't destroy Moria because of his increased strength.
Suddenly, Sanji twisted his waist and kicked the blade with his other leg. Although it didn't contain enough momentum, it had enough power to knock away that sword.
This gave Sanji a chance to make another move. His red lightning suddenly disappeared. The flames on his foot also disappeared.
But the Armament Haki and the power of his lightning fruit were still there. He moved to the side, using his lightning speed, and from there, he rushed toward Moria.
"Speed is Power! Have you ever been kicked at the speed of lightning?"
Sanji didn't know why, but he wanted to say this. Especially when he reached next to Moria, he stretched out his leg and kicked with all of his strength.
Of course, this kick didn't have the power to knock down Moria, but it had lightning.
[100 Million Volts- Microwave Technique]
Bang!
The lightning swirled out of his leg like wave particles and started bursting out very high voltage lightning all around Moria.
Although he was strong, he wasn't tough enough to bear all of this lightning.
"I see you."
Moria gritted his teeth and exerted Armament Haki into his fist. He bore all of the lightning just to hit Sanji with all of his strength.
"No, you don't."
If Moria could see Sanji, how could Sanji not predict his movement, especially with his enhanced Observation Haki?
He instantly swung his legs several times, creating powerful waves of lightning spears.
[God's Sanction]
It was a move that he learned from Enel, but his usage was different. His attack carried similar voltage but with Armament Haki and his leg force as well.
Several lightning spears exploded when they came in contact with Moria's fist, striking him with lightning of two hundred million volts.
Unlike Enel's straight lightning, his lightning spears were more like Zoro's flying slashes. But they would explode with all of their strength upon contact.
Moria was bombarded with two hundred million volts of lightning. Even he couldn't take them head-on.
His Armament Haki was broken apart, and his body was torn, especially his hand, which was heavily bleeding.
Sanji knew this wasn't enough. And, he had already made enough preparation.
His body suddenly disappeared towards the sky before he came rushing toward Moria with even greater speed, something that even those with Observation Haki couldn't react to.
As Sanji kicked down, a large lightning dragon emerged from his feet. With the full force of his lightning and Haki, he struck Moria on his head.
[Final Shot]
[Kaminari No Doragon]
Bang!
