One Piece: My Infinity Gauntlet!
Chapter 111 - 111 - Sand Devil Fruit Awakening!

"Kishishishishishishi~"

"Such great power, it's fascinating... Ugh..."

Before two words of madness could be uttered, Moria covered his mouth in extreme discomfort to prevent the rioting shadows inside him from escaping his mouth!

This number of shadows was simply not something he could suppress with his mental energy at this time, and he was only briefly forcing the power into his own use.

Will felt that it was time for the battle to come to an end and since Moria had brought about his own demise, he was no longer to blame for beating up the downed dog!

After using the Shadow Asgards, the Shadow Warrior, which allows Moria body and the shadow to swap places, now becomes useless, and this move is the only thing Will replaces troublesome....

Sandburst!

Will was done with his addiction to hand-to-hand combat, so he chose an extremely secure long-range attack to make the battle end quickly and safely!

Because a careless shot by the current Moria in this state could have really hurt him!

Will's impulse has always been an impulse under reason.

Countless tiny grains of sand that could explode surrounded Moria and then with Will's command began a chain of explosions! 

This time there is no Shadow Warrior to let him escape without a word.

Will unceremoniously creates a self-destructing candle spear to throw into it, adding to the power of the explosion!

He doesn't want to blow up Moria to pieces, just blow him up until he can't hold on and spit out his shadow, and the fight is over!

After ten minutes of bombardment, Will was tempted to put on the Fruit of Silence, as his ears were buzzing...

However, the scene that Will had expected did not occur!

Moria simply crouched on the ground with his huge, swollen arms protecting his head, and survived the first explosive meal Will had prepared for him with as little area as possible to be bombed!

After absorbing the shadows of a thousand people, Moria was strengthened not only in strength but also in his physical strength!

Otherwise, with a blow of such terrifying power, not only will his arm disappear, even he would be gone.

Physical strength is the key to how much power you can exert!

"Ki….Shishishi!"

An ear-splitting laugh was heard throughout the humongous Galleon!

As Moriah... Counterattack!

Boom!

Ka ka ka ka ka ka...

The well-prepared Will easily dodged Moria's first attack as he ran away!

But before he could retaliate, he frowned inwardly!

That seemingly random slap on the ground actually caused the entire ship to shake!

And then a huge crack went out from under him!

Moria palm strike actually shot a crack across the entire terrifying three-masted sailing ship!

You know this ship is more than just a 'ship', it's an island too!

This power...

How exactly is the power stacked after shadow absorption calculated?

Will really couldn't figure it out, but he finally knew why Moria had been obsessed with Kaido, who had wiped out his group of pirates!

It must have been the encounter 9 years ago that gave him some illusion...

Will regained his footing and calculated his remaining physical strength, he was ready to give it a go!

He raised his right hand and swept his eyes over the six devil fruits!

And then caress the earthy yellow devil fruit with his left hand...

And with a single thought, the Sand devil fruit... Awaked!

This is the first time Will has awakened a Logia Devil Fruit, and he has enough energy to support the awakening of the Sand Devil Fruit...  For Ten seconds!

However,

The moment Will awakened the fruit of sand, he had received enlightenment in his heart!

It turns out that the awakening of the sand fruit is not 'dryness' and that the right hand of the crocodile that can absorb water is merely a high-end power that can be comprehended once the sand devil fruit is developed to a certain level!

The true power of the Sand Fruit upon awakening is actually erosion!

Eating all things... Even the time!

The moment Will awakened the fruit of Sand, the Aura of vicissitudes of life and loneliness spread quickly from him!

Will even had time to lean down and grab a small insect to test his abilities.

Everything that he personally touched began to 'wither' at that instant and finally turned to dust!

It's like tens of thousands of years have been shortened to a few seconds in a flash...

The only thing is that the erosive power must be touched by Will himself before it can be activated, which is a big pity.

After the Sand Devil Fruits awakened, Will spent three seconds testing out his new ability, and chased Moria who was running away like a mad man!

Sand Bound Casket!

The powerful sand pulled on Moria's massive body like there is a hand pulling him!

After awakening, Will's control over the sand has also reached a point that is difficult to describe with words, if he has to say, a strong fusion version of Gaara and Crocodile?

Although with 'Thousand Shadows' Moria's strength still allows him to break free of the sand, there will be more sand to 'tug' at him!

"Desert Girasole!"

[TL/n: English name: Desert Sunflowers.]

Will just touched the ground with his hand, and a large amount of sand was eroded and weathered, and a huge quicksand pit appeared at the feet of Moria who was being pulled!

No matter how much he shrieks and struggles, he cannot escape this terrifying hell of quicksand!

The heavier he is, the more he struggles, the faster he falls!

Even Moria's brute strength won't help!

And there were still three seconds left in the awakening time of the Sand Fruit!

With only the last second left, Moria's heavy and huge body was finally buried in the sandpit even with his desperate struggle!

And Will slowly raised both of his hands to use the last move!

Sand: Great Burial!

The great terrifying three-masted sailing ship trembled!

The soft and flowing fine sand instantly becomes dense and smooth under a mighty force!

Under such terrifying squeezing force, Will only saw a burst of red blood slowly extending out, and the majestic Moria didn't move anymore...

In the next second, black shadows leapt out from the sand towards the sky!

With Moria's defeat, they are finally free!

When he saw a 'familiar' energy slowly emerging from the ground along with the diffuse black shadow, Will, who had deactivated his awakened state, finally relaxed!

During this relaxation, he felt sore muscles all over his body, but he also had to hold on to the side effect of weakness after the fruit awakening, next time he really can't be so impulsive.

But it was all worth it...

One minute later, Will dragged his exhausted body to put away the shadow devil fruit, which was not easy to assess its potential, with a happy expression on his face.

Guess the world government and navy will have another headache now...

But it's none of his business!

By the way, there is a devil fruit waiting for him to 'harvest' on this ship...

This gothic loli didn't attack him until the end, which is really surprising.
