One Piece : Luffy is Exposed

Chapter 14 : Is That Luffy?

Observing the image of Luffy's distinctive transformation, the entire world was left in astonishment...

Luffy's appearance was truly unlike anything seen before!

The sheer size of his monstrous physique surpassed even that of Moria!

Just glimpsing it induced a daunting sense of oppression, a true terror...

At the Marines Headquarters,

Kizaru and his fellow admirals exchanged subtle glances while observing Moria's discomfort.

Their expressions seemed to convey, "Is this the kind of power your fruit possesses, Moria?"

Moria's countenance grew increasingly uneasy. As a Shadow-Shadow Fruit user, he knew better than anyone the sheer potency of housing so many shadows within a single vessel.

Now, as he beheld Luffy, laden with over a hundred shadows, a tremor of fear ran through his heart...

[Luffy, unable to contain the newfound strength surging within him, nonchalantly seized a colossal, ten-meter-long blade and charged forward, resembling a walking juggernaut...]

[The group of pirates, watching Luffy's retreating figure, voiced their concerns, "The effects of the shadows only last for ten minutes. Let's hope he can conclude the battle within that time..."]

[Meanwhile, Zoro and his comrades engaged in a fierce confrontation with Oars, Moria's puppet, struggling mightily...]

[Despite the determined efforts of Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, and Robin, they merely managed to hold their ground against Oars's relentless onslaught...]

[Instead of inflicting any harm upon their colossal enemy, they found themselves taunted relentlessly...]

[Moria, on the other hand, wore a mocking expression, clearly not taking the battle seriously...]

[Under Oars's ceaseless barrage, even the combined efforts of Zoro and the others proved insufficient...]

[Zoro, Sanji, and Robin, possessing formidable strength, managed to evade Oars's attacks, but barely...]

[However, Usopp and Nami, with their current capabilities, were no match for Oars's relentless assaults and faced imminent peril, on the verge of being reduced to pulp...]

[Even Zoro and the rest were in a desperate situation, unable to rescue their vulnerable comrades due to the considerable distance...]

In this dire moment, a voice resonated from behind...

"What are you stepping on? Can't you see there's no one left?"

Hearing this voice, Oars and Moria simultaneously turned to look, momentarily stupefied...

Even Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and the others, who had been battling alongside Moria, were left in a state of shock...

Standing there was a colossal figure, his skin tinged with blue and gray, muscles bulging, and an imposing blade sheathed upon his back...

Moria questioned, perplexed, "Who are you?"

"I? My name is... Monkey D. Luffy!"

Boom~~

At that instant, a tumultuous cheer erupted from the Windmill Village.

"Luffy! Luffy has come to save them!"

"This physique, it's incredibly reassuring!"

"The Straw Hat Pirates are all safe now, woo-hoo..."

Many couldn't help but shed tears.

As they watched the live broadcast, their emotions were profoundly stirred.

Seeing Moria relentlessly torment the Straw Hats and place them in peril had left them more anxious than ever. Witnessing Luffy's timely arrival in such an assured state was incredibly moving.

Luffy, however, smirked as he gazed skyward, eyes brimming with yearning, as if he were admiring his own heroic figure...

Moria remained bewildered, and Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and Usopp, along with Robin and the others, shared the same doubt—how had Luffy transformed in this manner?

What was the source of this overpowering confidence and intimidation?

But in the face of their bewilderment, Luffy remained unperturbed, gently placing Nami and Usopp on the ground...

"Everyone... step back."

These words startled Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Usopp, Robin, and the others once more...

Could this truly be their captain—this figure exuding shock and reassurance, who now radiated an undeniable aura of authority?

Then, Oars made his move, launching a rubber boomerang bomb towards Luffy...

Yet, confronted with a fist larger than himself, Nightmare Luffy displayed no sign of panic, merely extending a hand to intercept the projectile with astonishing strength...

Simultaneously, he gazed calmly at the Oars before him and uttered with a plain yet commanding tone:

"Moria, it's just me against you!"

With those words, Nightmare Luffy soared into the air, executing a simple, unadorned punch...

Boom...

Oars's colossal form plummeted, raising a cloud of dust...

This scene left every present zombie in shock...

The seemingly invincible existence in their eyes had been knocked down? How could this be!?

Nonetheless, Nightmare Luffy followed up with another strike, leaping onto Oars's body and effortlessly lifting it into the air...

Then, like handling a mere toy, he repeatedly slammed it onto the ground...

This colossal display of power shook the entire island, akin to a devastating earthquake...

But despite the awe-inspiring spectacle, Nightmare Luffy, though massive, appeared almost insignificant compared to the colossal Oars. How could such a vast size difference result in Oars's defeat?

The facts before their eyes only intensified their bewilderment, rendering them utterly speechless...

This was the moment.

Numerous factions observing the live broadcast—be it the Marines, the Revolutionary Army, other pirates, or familiar faces—all shared the same reaction...

Utter disbelief.
