Chapter 678 Impersonating Moria

Pretending to be Moriah and conspiring to seize the Seven Wukai, sounds a bit ridiculous at first glance!

But after careful scrutiny, Arthur discovered that there is a lot to be done about this matter!

After a little thought, he came up with two options!
One is the easiest, and the other is not too difficult!

The easiest way is to directly use the ninjas of the Ghost Shadow Legion to enter Moria's corpse!

In that case, he can impersonate Moria perfectly!

However, this simplest method was quickly denied by Arthur himself!
Because if you do this, it will be easy to be exposed!

You know, Moriah himself is a person who relies entirely on his ability to eat. Although his body is huge, his strength is not that high!

In this case, once the ninja of the ghost shadow army becomes his shadow and controls him, the strength that can be displayed is not even comparable to the strength of the ghost shadow army ninja itself!
So once someone, such as Shichibukai or the navy, suddenly shoots at Moria's corpse controlled by a ninja, then Moria's corpse basically has no ability to fight back, and because it cannot use the shadow ability, it will be exposed on the spot !
Therefore, Arthur immediately rejected this idea, and turned his attention to another idea that was not too difficult-impersonating Moria directly!
This also sounds a bit ridiculous!

But if you think about it carefully, it's not that difficult!
What's the point of impersonating a person?
It's nothing more than appearance, personality, memory and ability!

As long as these four points are the same, others will regard you as the person you are pretending to be without your telling me!

And among these four things, ability is needless to say!

Arthur, who already has the ability of the shadow fruit, can do whatever Moria can do, even better than the original Moria, unless Arthur kills himself and uses an ability that is not Moria, Otherwise, it is impossible to see any flaws!

Needless to say, personality and memory!

Arthur basically knows Moria's character, as long as he imitates it a little bit, he can imitate it. Moreover, since his partner died, Moria has been a lone wolf, and he has no familiar people at all, and he doesn't have to follow him. What other people deal with, so there can be no flaws in memory!

In other words, if you want to impersonate Moria directly, the only problem facing Arthur now is nothing more than his appearance!
And this point, it is not easy to say, it is not difficult to say difficult!
What's not simple is that Moriah is very different from Arthur in terms of height, weight, or appearance. He can't transform into Moriah through makeup or other means!
What's not difficult is that he doesn't have to really become Moria!

What impresses you the most about Moriah?
Of course it was his shadow!

And if Arthur uses the shadow ability to form a shadow similar to Moriah himself and appear in front of others, will others suspect that he is not Moriah?

impossible!

Shadow is Moria's signature, which has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
On the premise of not knowing that Moria is dead, as long as there is a shadow like Moria appearing in front of others, those who know Moria will definitely subconsciously recognize this shadow as Moria!

And if you don't know Moria, it will be even easier!
I said I am Moria, and people who don't know Moria will definitely not object!
Thinking of this, Arthur felt a little lucky!
Before his shadow is fused with the shadow fruit, he can only become a shadow man with a figure similar to Arthur and wearing a Nijia mask at most. After the shadow is fused with the shadow fruit, his shadow ability has been upgraded!
Not only can it be transformed into a shadow man, but also the size and shape of the shadow man can be manipulated at will, and the Nijia mask can also be hidden in the shadow!
This gave him some help in impersonating Moria!
If it was before, when other people saw the size and shape of the shadow man, as well as the mask on his face, even if they didn't say anything, they would definitely have doubts in their hearts!

After all, how could a person's shadow be so different from his body?

And now it's all right!
Under the condition that the size and body shape can be modified, Arthur can completely pinch his own shadow into a shadow that is exactly the same size and body shape as Moriah, absolutely invisible!
"When necessary, it would be even more perfect to use the ninjas of the Ghost Shadow Legion to enter Moria's body and pretend to be Moria!" Arthur murmured, the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily.

Arthur previously denied letting the ninjas of the Ghost Shadow Legion directly enter Moria's body to pretend to be Moria, because if he did that, it would be easy to be exposed if he fought or was tempted.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't use Moria's corpse at all!

In fact, if you pay attention and don't be tempted, it doesn't matter if you use it occasionally in some key places, and it can also increase the credibility of him as Moriah!

"However, in this way, the idea of ​​exchanging Moria's corpse for the favorability of Mihawk and Gromash must be impossible!"

"Once Mihawk looks at Moria's body, he will definitely be suspicious when he sees Moria, who is also Shichibukai in the future!" Arthur thought for a while, and denied a previous idea!
Speaking of this, he felt a little rejoiced in his heart!
Fortunately, Mihawk and Gromash have not come to St. Maarten until now!

And there are two specific reasons why it didn't come!

One is because although Grommash’s tavern collapsed, many of the wine in the tavern, as well as the wine still being brewed in the wine cellar underground of the tavern, were not destroyed. rescued from the ruins.

The other is that Gromash is still a little worried about the placement of St. Martin. He is going to stay on the island to watch for a while. If nothing happens in the early stage of the placement, he will start again. For the sake of the wine in his hand, he will stay with him for the time being!

So the two of them haven't been to St. Maarten yet, and therefore Arthur hasn't shown them the body yet!

At this moment, Arthur suddenly thought of something!
Since Moria's body will be used in the future, we must ensure his integrity now!
Don't let it completely rot when you take it out in the future, that's not good!
Thinking about it, Arthur quickly picked up the phone beside him and made a call.

"Blood!"

As the phone rang, the call was quickly connected!

"It's me!" Arthur said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, do you have anything to do?" Shura said respectfully on the other end of the phone.

"What did you do with Moria's body?" Arthur asked, frowning.

"Returning to Your Majesty, didn't you say two days ago that you would keep this corpse and transport it to the damaged village for the villagers and even the people of Xihai to see, what will happen to offending us Saint Martin?" Shura said seriously,

"So I asked someone to put the corpse into an ice coffin to ensure the integrity of the corpse and prevent the corpse from rotting and not being able to see the exact shape when it is displayed!"

"Great!" Upon hearing that it was preserved in an ice coffin, Arthur's face flashed a hint of surprise, and he ordered, "Then continue to preserve it in an ice coffin! The other things on display have also been cancelled, and you let me know that Moriah died. Shut up all those people, and don't say anything about Moria's death!"

"Um!?"

When Shura heard this, he couldn't help but frowned, and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, why?"

Arthur thought for a while, and directly told Shura the reason, saying, "It's because"

After a brief explanation, Shura also understood Arthur's plan!

"Understood Your Majesty, I will make arrangements now! Those who know about the matter, I will also tell them not to tell about this matter!" Shura said respectfully.

"Well, go! That's it!" Arthur said, and hung up the phone!
