I summon the shadow army in Pirates

Early the next morning.

Coles got up on time, washed up, and prepared to go to the naval base in Rogge Town.

The mirror of the dressing mirror also revealed his current handsome appearance:

He has short black hair, blue eyes, a long face, a high nose bridge, and handsome features.

He was wearing the white navy uniform issued by the recruitment office yesterday. Coupled with his height of 1.8 meters, he looked particularly energetic.

In the pirate world, 1.8 meters is considered a common height. After all, this world has a special race of giants and some humans who are different from ordinary people.

Coles is quite satisfied with his height. He is only seventeen years old now and still has time to grow, but he doesn't know how tall he can grow in the future.

After saying goodbye to his father and sister.

Coles headed towards the naval base in Rogge Town alone.

The villa is located in the west of Rogge Town. It is quite far from the naval base and requires walking through more than a dozen streets to reach it.

Ten minutes later, he had reached the Central Street. As long as he traveled one thousand meters further, he would be able to reach the naval base in Rogge Town.

Coles was imagining his own way to the navy while walking forward with high spirits, but when he passed an alley, he suddenly stopped.

In a dark alley.

Because of the wall blocking it, there was a shadow, making it difficult to see the specific situation.

But because Coles ate the Shadow Fruit, his perception of shadows is far beyond that of ordinary people.

As soon as he passed this place, he realized that there were two people hiding inside, and these two people also targeted him.

Could it be that those two people couldn't see that they were wearing navy uniforms and were targeting navy recruits close to the naval base?

If you are not a fool, then there is only one other possibility...

The other party has already planned it!

In the shadow-shrouded alley, two men, one tall and one thin, slowly walked out.

As the two of them walked to the bright area, Coles also saw the sharp long knife in the hand of the tall and thin man, as well as the ferocious face of the fat and short man.

Coles had a bad premonition in his heart!

The aura of these two people is far beyond that of ordinary ruffians. They may even be "pirates" who often kill!

"Adun, is this the fifth one?" the tall and thin pirate asked his companion next to him.

"That's right. Capturing him should be enough. Adulun, let me deal with this navy recruit."

The short and fat pirate named Aden responded while loosening his fists.

"Yes, but move quickly. After catching this navy recruit, we must quickly gather with the captain." Adulun ordered.

"no problem."

Arden is full of confidence in this.

The two didn't even talk to Coles.

However, this is quite normal.

After all, to them, Coles was just a new recruit in the Navy who had not even experienced formal teaching. It was extremely easy to catch him.

"Boy, let's catch him without any effort!"

Arden's body suddenly rushed towards Coles, and he punched out with a fist as big as a sandbag, like a ferocious beast coming out of its cage.

Coles only felt a chill running down his spine, because this was the first time he faced a pirate directly. In a moment of confusion, the opponent's attack had already arrived.

Damn it, it’s too late to dodge!

Arden's sandbag-sized fist hit Coles's abdomen hard, making a muffled sound.

Peng!

Coles bent and arched his waist, barely releasing some of the force, but was still punched away by the opponent and hit the wall behind him directly.

The pain coming from his abdomen made Coles' face distorted for a moment.

But he gritted his teeth and stood up quickly, because now was not the time to lie on the ground.

"Huh!"

Arden was a little confused. As one of the helmsmen on the ship, he was so powerful that he could even break trees, but he didn't knock the opponent unconscious with one punch?

"Looks like he's a new recruit with some basic skills."

Arden thought so in his mind, but his hand movements were not slow and he continued to attack the recruit.

Coles's spirit is highly concentrated.

Relying on the agility that he usually exercises, he quickly dodges and avoids.

All of a sudden.

Arden's fist couldn't hit accurately, which made him puzzled.

As an old pirate who has been in the East China Sea for many years, he still can't get a navy recruit for a long time?

This is so embarrassing!

Arden's face was a little confused, and he strengthened his hands, hoping to quickly deal with Coles.

Facing Arden's increasingly clever attacks, Coles looked even more solemn.

Is this a real pirate?

He is not as weak as the people of Rogge Town said. He is a soft persimmon that was kneaded by the navy.

The pirate in front of him is even more experienced in fighting. He obviously often fights against others. He is a powerful gangster who has actually seen blood!

Although Coles has good physical fitness, after all, he is a navy recruit who has never actually fought and cannot be compared with Arden.

Although he was only dodging, his physical strength was also declining drastically. If this continued, he would be beaten to the point where he would be unable to stand up.

Chance!

We must look for opportunities to fight back!

Peng!

An accident.

Coles was knocked away by Arden again, and his body directly smashed a wooden box not far away.

He was extremely helpless.

With no combat experience, even if he has physical fitness that is much higher than that of ordinary people, he is still vulnerable to pirates who have actually fought.

Not far away, Adulun began to urge.

"Adun, hurry up. This is not far from the naval base. If the other party finds that the navy recruits haven't arrived yet, they might notice it."

Facing Adulun's urging, Arden shook his head and said: "This guy has good physical fitness. He should be the strongest among the recruits. I'll hurry up."

Adulun stopped watching the battle in the alley and quickly came to the entrance of the alley, observing the surroundings vigilantly to guard against the sudden arrival of the navy.

Arden looked at Coles who stood up from the ground again, and said with a ferocious smile: "Boy, stop resisting and come with us!"

Coles wiped the blood that overflowed from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and asked in a cold voice: "Who are you from that pirate group, and how dare you attack the new navy recruits? Aren't you afraid of the navy in Rogge Town?"

Hearing this, Arden just sneered.

"You'll find out soon enough."

The fist wind is coming.

Coles had to dodge again.

Not long after, he was knocked away by Arden again and hit the wall hard.

But, the opportunity finally appeared!

…

boom!

suddenly.

In the alleyway, a gunshot sounded in all directions.

A black cat in the tall building next door was awakened and jumped off the window sill in a panic, instinctively avoiding it.

Adulun turned his head angrily and growled: "Adun, who allowed you to shoot? Don't you know that this will attract the navy..."

But when he turned his head completely, his words stopped abruptly, and his expression was even more shocking, as if he had seen an unbelievable fact.

In the alleyway, the navy recruit was leaning on the wall, his physical strength severely damaged.

Companion Yaden was maintaining a posture ready to catch the opponent, but his movements were already frozen.

Because behind Adun, there was a black figure, and the black figure was pointing the muzzle of the flintlock gun at Aden's heart.

At this time, the muzzle of the flintlock gun was emitting a faint white smoke, which contrasted sharply with the black figure.

Plop!

Arden's body slowly fell to the ground, and he didn't know who killed him until his death.

After Adulun was shocked, he immediately said with anger on his face: "Damn it, you are actually a devil fruit user!"

The black figure was obviously not a living person, so Adulun guessed another rare possibility.

Coles exhaled and slowly stood up from the ground. Because he lowered his head, his eyes were covered by black hair, making it difficult to see his specific expression.

"That's right!"

"I am indeed an esper who ate the Devil Fruit, but my Devil Fruit ability is not very effective in combat, so I have to wait for the opportunity."

"But, it's different now!"

Coles raised his head, and his blue eyes covered by broken black hair were revealed. At the same time, his summoning command also sounded in the alleyway.

"stand up!"

Then, Adulun saw the most shocking scene in his life.

Arden, who was originally lying on the ground, began to change his shadow and stood up.

In the end, a shadow soldier who looked exactly like the pirate Adon slowly formed!
