Straw Hat Deputy Captain of One Piece

Before John could refute anything, Robin had turned to him.

"As a Shichibukai, Moria should be very strong, but don't we happen to have someone here who can restrain the opponent's ability!"

Robin was looking at John, making it clear that it was John she was talking about.Hebao.com

"Oh, that's right!" Nami also responded, "John is a transparent fruit, and after being transparent, a person has no shadow. Moria's shadow fruit is ineffective against him!"

John twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a wry smile,

"Even if we don't talk about Moria's own strength, he still has so many powerful subordinates. Apart from the Devil Fruit ability, I will not be the opponent of their entire team."

"So, let's split up for the time being." Robin arranged. "Franky is wreaking havoc outside to attract the attention of the zombies and cadres, and see if we can find Usopp. John, go and hold down Molly. Ya. And I, Nami and Chopper are responsible for rescuing Luffy and the others whose shadow has been captured. After everyone gathers, we will find a way to retrieve the shadow, or work together to defeat Moria!"

"It makes sense, let's do it! I'm super motivated now!" Franky was the first to agree. He is the best at sabotaging things.

"I also think Robin's arrangement is the most reasonable." Nami nodded.

For a moment, everyone looked at John, waiting for John's answer.

"...Okay, okay." John was helpless. Although this trip seemed dangerous, if Absalom and Perona were both attracted away, there would be only one Moria left. How much should John do? It can still be dealt with.As long as they persist until Luffy and the others are found, John won't even need to take action in the end.

With their respective tasks, everyone acted separately.

On the other side, with the birth of the strongest zombie Oz, Absalom and Perona restarted their hunting plan.

······

However, what was unexpected was that just after everyone separated, John's phone suddenly rang again.

Bah! Bah!Bah! Bah!

John was silent for a while and then answered the phone. As expected, the voice on the other end was Perona's.

"Are you okay? You weren't trampled to death by Oz, were you?" Perona asked with concern.

"Thank you for your concern." John didn't know Perona's plan for a while.

"Let me see." On the other side of the phone, Perona seemed to be searching for something, "Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, then the only men left are Franky, John, and Usopp. Are you Which one?" Perona asked, apparently looking through the wanted posters of their Straw Hat gang.And from Perona's words, we can also hear some information. She excluded Luffy, Zoro and Sanji. In other words, the shadows of those three people have indeed been cut out.

"I'm John. Any advice?" John replied.

"Oh, it's John. The bounty is only 500W Bailey? The previous transparent fruit ability user seems to be you, right?" Perona asked curiously, "Is the current fruit ability user worth this amount of money? Or are you too weak? ?”

"Just think I'm too weak, so what?" John asked directly. If in the previous world, John couldn't help but wonder if the other party was trying to use phone signals to find his location in reverse.

"It's really not cute at all. Forget it, I won't beat around the bush with you. All your friends are in my hands. If you have some sense, you can come over and capture them yourself!" Perona said.

"..."

John was shocked, wasn't he? He actually committed kidnapping and threats. Does this girl Perona really want to take the position of the villain?In fact, it’s not surprising that John was surprised, because there was no such scene in the original work.But John couldn't help but reply,

"Don't try to lie to me. I know that you can't kill the person whose shadow you took away, otherwise the shadow you worked so hard to grab will disappear!"

Since he couldn't be harmed, why threaten him with John, so John decided that Perona was deliberately scaring him.

"Oh? You know a lot. Indeed, if we get the shadow, we usually won't hurt it. But that's only for the strong, and it's the strong who won't cause trouble for us." Perona said, For example, Brooke, because he made the people of Ghost Island "in dire straits", so even if Brooke's shadow is very good, Moriah wants to kill him quickly.As for the others, they are not the shadow of a strong man. If you catch such a guy, it will be a big one. If a few of them die casually, it is not a big deal, it is harmless.

"What do you mean?" John frowned. Will Luffy cause trouble?Of course!But Luffy's shadow is now in Oz's body. Moriah can't hurt Luffy no matter what.

"Why are you so stupid!" Perona was a little annoyed, "I heard that there is one here who is your wife, so you don't care!"

"Nami?!" John exclaimed. He always thought that Perona was talking about Luffy and the others, and that the focus was on causing trouble. Unexpectedly, Perona's focus was on strength and weakness. Now, what Perona has in her hands is Shadow. Nami and the others are dispensable.Not long after we separated, we were arrested? !

In fact, it's normal when you think about it. First of all, Nami and the others were not hiding, but came to the door on their own initiative. Secondly, without John's transparent fruit ability, they were easily discovered. Finally, once they were discovered, it was In Perona's words, with Perona's ability, she definitely had no ability to resist at all, and the three of them were immediately caught.

"Are they okay? You didn't do anything to them, did you?" John asked quickly.

"Giggle!" Perona smiled, "Wouldn't you know if there's anything going on when you get here?"

After hearing this, John didn't care about anything else and immediately rushed towards Perona's position.It's not like John never thought that Perona was deceiving him, but John didn't think that Perona would use such a trick, so it could only be true.

It's still the same courtyard as before, but most of the buildings have been destroyed by Oz just now.

Perona was sitting proudly on top like a little princess, while Nami, Robin, and Chopper were tied tightly below, unable to move.Seeing that the three of them were probably fine, John was slightly relieved.

"It's here so soon." Perona slowly put down the phone.

John did not act rashly, but asked,

"I have a question."

"Oh?" Perona asked.

"I'm just a little pirate with a bounty of 500 million, how can I be worthy of you using this method to deal with me?" John said. On the way here, he had already thought about this calmly.It's normal for the weak to threaten the strong, but I've never seen anyone threaten the weak.

"Well, it doesn't hurt to tell you. First, it's too troublesome to find your people, so it's better to invite you over like this. Second, no matter whether you are strong or not, with your fruit ability, it is impossible for us to Ignore it." Perona replied.

But at this moment, a tall figure appeared accompanied by many people,

"Perona is right. Boy, you have no way out now, why don't you let me give you a choice?"

Moria!Moonlight Moria actually appeared in person!And there were Absalom and Hogbark nearby. Not only was there no way out, it was a dead end.How could he, John, be worthy of being treated like this?

"What choice?" John asked weakly. Unable to calm down, he had already lost his ability to think.Not to mention whether he could run away, even if he could, John wouldn't be able to abandon Nami and the others.

"Join us," Moria replied.

"What???"
