Chapter 312 Shadow Fruit
The ability of the Shadow Fruit, as the name suggests, is the ability to control shadows.
Not only can it control the esper's own shadow, the shadow can be used as a substitute to defend against the opponent's attacks or to attack on behalf of the esper. Its strength is equal to that of the esper itself.
This is Moria's Shadow Mage skill, which ignores any damage and helps Moria defend and attack the enemy's shadow clone like a monster.
At the same time, the shadow itself can also split and change into various shapes to attack.
For example, Moonlight Moria splits the shadow into a bat that bites the opponent's skill [Flying Bat] or locks the opponent in a shadow box [Shadow Box].
At the same time, the shadow of the esper will become as shapeless as water, and can be recombined even if it is destroyed.
The ability user can also switch positions with the shadow at will to dodge attacks, and can also control his own shadow to sneak into other people's shadows.
Since the shadow is connected to the entity, if the entity changes, the shadow will also change.
In the same way, the fruit's ability controls the clone to sneak into the shadow, and by changing the shape of the shadow, it can also change the shape of the entity.
This is the principle of Moria's [Shadow Revolution], a skill that in Zhao Yu's opinion is almost a bug.
There is also the ability for users to pull apart other people's shadows like tearing off tape, and at the same time cut off the target's shadow. The person whose shadow has been taken away will be burned to ashes if exposed to the sun.
If the stolen shadow is placed in a corpse, it can be turned into a zombie. The zombie itself has the same combat power and personality as the owner of the original shadow, but the actual power of the Devil Fruit cannot be transferred to the zombie.
The zombies that have just been placed in the shadow will retain the consciousness of the original shadow owner, but they will eventually become obedient zombies.
The created zombies are afraid of fire. After eating salt, the zombies will be purified, that is, the shadow will escape from the zombie's body.
And if the cut shadow is placed in the body of a living person, the ability of the shadow can be transferred to the person who is placed in the shadow, but this requires stronger mental power than ordinary people.
After being stuffed into the shadow, the person's appearance, body shape, skin color, strength and attack power will change, which is the nightmare form when Luffy fights Moria.
And the more shadows are inserted, the stronger the power will be. It can even crush an island with one punch. This is the principle of Moria's unique skill [Shadow Gathering Ground].
However, since living people themselves have shadows, the inserted shadow will react with the person whose shadow is inserted in 2 to 3 minutes and leave the person's body at the same time.
If the player uses the Shadow Fruit, the ability to create zombies will be weakened, but at the same time, the ability to cut shadows will become stronger.

As for how the players knew that the Shadow Fruit was so powerful, that's another story.
On this day, when Zhao Yu came to Sanmafan to do a mission, he cloned the fruit ability of Moria, the NPC in the center of the map, out of curiosity.
Then he met his old rivals, a group of people from Wuhan University and a few people from Mingyue Guild.
Zhao Yu didn't see them originally, and Wu Da and the others planned to avoid him after seeing Zhao Yu.
But something bad happened to Mingyue Scimitar, one of the original high-ranking members of the Mingyue Guild, who has the sickle fruit ability.
He still remembers clearly the scene when Zhao Yu eliminated him in the first championship, but he never had a chance to take revenge.
These days, through teaming up with Wuhan University and others, various dungeons were directly promoted, which made him feel that he was good again.
Unlike the main city where other team copies are located, the Terror Barque is not a safe area.
Then he used his fruit power to slash out the wind sickle and sneak attack Zhao Yu. Wu Da and others who were teaming up with him were shocked as soon as this attack was launched.
"Your mother's kiss, what the hell are you doing!!!"
Wu Da said after watching Zhao Yu dodge the blow and look towards them, his jaw dropped to the ground in fright.
"Nothing, just revenge!" Mingyue Scimitar said very calmly, looking confident.
"You avenge your motherfucker, you are such a motherfucker." After hearing his answer, Wu Da and others immediately spat out a series of shielded words, as if they were covered in honey.
After Zhao Yu on the other side saw it, he thought to himself, "This is really a sleepy night. Someone gave me a pillow! I just wanted to test the fruit's ability and they arrived."
Then he activated the ability of the Shadow Fruit and rushed towards everyone, and used a move [Flying Bats] where countless bat shadows attacked everyone.
Seeing Zhao Yu take action, they knew that they couldn't run away, so they had no choice but to fight, and maybe they could die a more beautiful death.
Wu Da Barrier took action and helped everyone stop the bat, giving everyone a chance to breathe.
Then their division of labor and cooperation were clear. Sun Er and Zhang San ran from left to right, preparing to form an encirclement. Wang Wu waited for the opportunity to make a sneak attack. Li Si, Mingyue Scimitar and others made a head-on surprise attack towards Zhao Yu.
"Isn't your cooperation good? Look at me Shadow Mage!!!"
After Zhao Yu saw the opponent's formation, a ghost-like shadow broke away from him and pounced towards the Mingyue Scimitar from the shadow.
As soon as he swung his wind blade slash, he felt something pierced through his chest.
He looked back in surprise and found that a black shadow had appeared behind him at some point and pierced him through with the shadow blade in his hand.
Then he knew nothing. The blow took away all his strength.
When everyone on the Mingyue Guild side saw this scene, they knew that they were in trouble this time, because Zhao Yu once again used a method they were unfamiliar with.
It can't be said that I have never seen it before. Moonlight Moria did make a move, but it only passed by briefly and was not fully displayed.
"Be careful, this is Moria's fruit ability." Wu Da immediately thought of the source of this ability when he saw the shadow.
The death of Mingyue Scimitar made them curse secretly, but that was it, the situation was over, so let's do it!
After the Mingyue Scimitar was dealt with, Li Si suddenly rushed in front of Zhao Yu and hit the target with one blow, but he was not happy at all because the person he hit in front of him turned out to be Zhao Yu's shadow.
And Zhao Yu didn't know when he appeared behind him, and took away all his physical strength with one sword.
The shadow double allows the shadow fruit user's movement ability to be as unpredictable as teleportation.
However, after Zhao Yu killed Li Si, a stream of mud shot directly at him. Zhao Yu once again switched places with the Shadow Mage to avoid the blow.
The mud impact was like a sharp blade, and it actually cut Zhao Yu's shadow in half. The originally complete shadow was broken into pieces again, turning into bats all over the sky.
Sun Er and Zhang San thought this was an opportunity and attacked Zhao Yu from the left and right sides. Zhao Yu smiled at the pretense.
He raised his hands and countless shadows instantly submerged and bound the two of them, and two black rectangular bodies appeared on the battlefield.
Then countless shadow swords appeared on the black box, and instantly stabbed the two people inside the black rectangular body.
"This is the 90th Black Coffin of the Broken Path!!!"
Wang Wu saw the origin of Zhao Yu's move at a glance and said in shock.
Yes, this is the skill [Shadow Coffin] that Zhao Yu imitated based on Moonlight Moria's [Shadow Box] and the [Black Coffin] skill in Death.
After the shadow coffin disappeared, Sun Er and Zhang San also disappeared together. They were directly taken away by Zhao Yu with all their physical strength.
Everyone in the Mingyue Guild came out of Wu Da and other people outside Wang Wu wanted to run away when they saw this.
"Don't run away, come back and fight!" Wuhan University shouted to everyone in their channel.
This group of second-guessers really broke his heart. They attacked without saying anything, and then tried to run away after failing to do anything.
If Zongjian Kuangge releases the video of them escaping from the sneak attack route, it will be another big blow to the reputation of Mingyue Guild.
Although Zongjian Kuangge may not necessarily do this, he must be on guard against others, and he doesn't want to change guilds again.
However, Wu Da overestimated his influence in Mingyue Guild, and those who escaped ignored his words and continued to run.
"Gan!"
Wu Da obviously did not expect this situation, and then watched them being chased by Zhao Yu's shadow bat, and then Zhao Yu got there in a flash and killed them one by one.
"Brother, what should we do now?" Wang Wu said as he looked at the people of Mingyue Guild who had been given almost nothing.
"Lang Ning, go up and fight with him. They were all killed and it won't be easy for us to explain when we go back," Wu Da said helplessly.
But before they could rush forward, news came from Mingyue Guild that reinforcements had arrived.
