One Piece: I am Imu

[Zas!] 

As a long golden leg flashed past, Gecko Moria's head actually shattered, turning into torn black shadow fragments floating in the air. 

"Eh...?" Borsalino looked at Moria's body that turned into a purple-black shadow in front of him with confusion. 

[Swish!] 

Suddenly, the black shadow brandished the sharp shadow blade in his hand, turning into a black light that cut Borsalino's waist in two. 

There was no wound or blood at the incision. Instead, there was a bright golden light. Then the golden light flashed and appeared in the blink of an eye at the place where he originally stood. 

"It's so scary~" 

Borsalino looked like he was still frightened. He looked past the black shadow and looked at Gecko Moria who appeared fifty meters away at an unknown time, with doubts on his face. 

"You are also a Logia-type? But doesn't the information say that you are a Paramecia-type with Shadow-Shadow Fruit ability?" 

"Kishishishishishi... I would like to know why your elemental transformation is immune to my slashing attack. The attack from before was clearly imbued with Haki." 

Gecko Moria had no interest in introducing his abilities to him at all. Instead, he asked about the strange situation just now. It was the first time he faced a Logia-type ability user, so he was not sure whether the Haki could hurt the elemental form. 

"Well, who knows~" 

Borsalino's answer was insincere. 

"Hmph, you'll find out if you look around. I really don't believe that Haki is useless to you!" Gecko Moria snorted coldly, and then shouted: "Doppelman, come with me!" 

[Boom!] 

Stomping hard on the ground, the nearly seven-meter-tall body accelerated instantly, easily smashing through the air wave generated by a sonic boom and turned into a huge purple-black afterimage that rushed forward. 

At the same time, the black shadow with the exact same shape as him, holding the shadow blade, approached Borsalino first and started to chop. 

"Ama no Murakumo~" 

Borsalino moved faster, casually drawing out a golden long sword made entirely of light particles, and instantly blocked the attack of the shadow blade. 

Next, in less than two seconds, the shadow blade and lightsaber clashed at such a high speed that it was extremely blurry to the naked eye. The black light and golden light intertwined into a ball, and circles of light were generated in the air. Ripples of air waves and occasional slashes left long ferocious cracks on the ground. 

The next second, Gecko Moria's body approached. He tried to get behind Borsalino, but the latter dodged and retreated several meters, leaving no opportunity for a surprise attack. 

With no choice, Moria had no choice but to launch quick attacks with the 'Doppelman' on the left and right, swinging dangerous purple-black slashes with their swords. 

Borsalino waved his sword to resist while observing the situation between the two. 

He found that the so-called 'Doppelman', whether it was strength, speed, or reaction, was basically the same as Moria's body. 

The only difference was in terms of Haki. The shadow blade of the former is only wrapped with a weak layer of Busoshoku Haki, while the Busoshoku Haki on the long sword of the latter is extremely strong and even 'hardens' the blade. 

But in terms of swordsmanship alone, he is obviously stronger, although Moria's sword skills are also quite good. 

[Swish!] 

Borsalino turned into a flash of light again, disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then appeared on the left side of Moria's body and struck with a sword. 

Fortunately, the latter's Kenbunshoku Haki level was not bad, so he reacted immediately, but it was too late to block him with a knife. 

As for using the Busoshoku Haki to harden the body and test the sharpness of the 'Ama no Murakumo', it is even more unthinkable. The lightsaber is obviously wrapped with a layer of Busoshoku Haki. 

"Kagemusha!" 

At this critical moment, Moria once again used the ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit to exchange places with his own shadow, the 'Doppelman'. 

"Ooh~" 

Borsalino raised his eyebrows when he saw this scene, but Moria did not hesitate at all and immediately launched his own killing move. 

"Brick Bat!" 

With a bang, the 'Doppelman' in front of the former suddenly exploded and turned into dense shadow bats that rushed forward. They scattered in all directions and enveloped Borsalino like a black net from multiple directions. 

Although this move was sudden, the latter also had the Kenbunshoku Haki. Coupled with the unstoppable speed of the Glint-Glint Fruit, he instantly avoided the bites of all the bats and was already high in the sky when he reappeared. 

"Yo~ What a troublesome ability..." Borsalino rubbed his chin and looked down in distress. 

At the same time, Gecko Moria on the ground also frowned and stared at the sky, and cursed in a low voice: "This guy's speed is too fast, how can I fight him?" 

In his opinion, the swordsmanship of both sides was even, and neither could use it to gain an advantage. The only thing they have to fight for is their Haki and devil fruit abilities. 

In terms of Busoshoku Haki and Kenbunshoku Haki, I seem to be at a slight disadvantage, and in terms of abilities of devil fruits, it seems that no one can do anything about them. 

The combination of 'Doppelman' and 'Kagemusha' is equivalent to elementalization and space transmission. However, this is enough to protect oneself, but it is too difficult to hurt Borsalino. 

'It seems like this battle will last for a long time.' Gecko Moria thought secretly in his heart. Suddenly, he thought of his fellow comrades. 

'The fight here is like this, why haven't they discovered it yet?' 

But Borsalino didn't give him a chance to check on his comrades. The 'Ama no Murakumo' in his hand had disappeared, and a dazzling golden flash lit up at his fingertips. 

[Zas! Piu! Piu!] 

Three flickering beams of light were shot at high speed towards Gecko Moria, but the latter took a few steps with the help of his Kenbunshoku Haki and dodged them with ease. 

"Kishishishishishi... What's the use of this?" Moria sneered. 

Although Borsalino seems to be better at Haki than him, the gap is not big enough to predict his prediction. 

But the next second, when the flash beam fell on the snow behind him, three bright red explosive fireballs expanded. The high-temperature flames and shock waves immediately swallowed the snowflakes and Gecko Moria. 

Borsalino, who was high in the sky, was very indifferent to this scene. He continued to fire the flash beam on his finger, three more times. 

Can't you switch places with your shadow clone? Okay, then just blow them up together, just keep hiding and watching! 

[Zas!] 

Suddenly, a change occurred. Amidst the continuous explosions and flames, a huge purple-black slash appeared, temporarily cutting through the flames and air waves. 

Then the 'Doppelman' soared into the sky, and as soon as he flew in front of Borsalino, the blackness on his body quickly faded, and he turned into a slightly embarrassed Moria himself. 

"Come and die!" 

The three-meter-long sword slashed out violently. The sharp blade was wrapped with a thick purple-black shadow blade and a rich Busoshoku Haki, splitting Borsalino in half from top to bottom. 

However, the situation was the same as before, no blood appeared, instead it turned into two golden lights and shot out, one to the left and one to the right, and then merged into one in the air in the distance. Then that annoying, miserable face appeared again. 

"Ooh~ your shadow clone can also fly, what a terrifying ability~" 

Borsalino pouted as if he was surprised, but when he saw Moria falling down, he grinned and said: "I see, you can't fly after changing positions." 

However, with damaged clothes and a furious look, it was evident that the previous explosion of six light beams had had some effect. 

If this is the case, then increase your efforts! 

When Gecko Moria just fell back to the ground full of scorched earth pits, it was like there was an extra sun in the sky, and the dazzling golden light covered the entire blue sky. 

"Yasakani no Magatama~"
