Enel's cover serial continues as "Enel's Great Space Mission Vol. 29: 'What the Space Pirates Dug Up.'" In the cover image, Enel stands on the moonlike surface and looks toward the excavation site and the strange machinery unearthed by the space pirates. This page is not part of the immediate Thriller Bark battle, but it preserves the chapter title and the ongoing cover serial before the story returns to Luffy, Moria, Sanji, Nami, and Absalom. Page 1: Inside Thriller Bark, the entire ship-island shakes violently. Luffy looks upward and says, "I wonder what's going on!" then adds, "It's shaking really hard!" Moria sits nearby and casually explains that the ship was probably caught in some weird current, but he blames Luffy anyway: "I think it's most likely your fault, kishishishi!!" Luffy has no patience for jokes. He demands, "Give me my shadow back, and also Zoro's, Sanji's... Brook's too, and also that zombie old man's! All of them!!" Moria laughs at the greed of it, and the confrontation settles into its real issue: Luffy wants every stolen shadow returned, while Moria treats those shadows as property already under his rule. Page 2: Moria explains that simply beating him will not free the shadows. Even if Luffy kicks his ass or kills him, the zombies will not lose their shadows by losing their "governor." Moria says his ability is to govern shadows, and there is only one way to make Luffy's wish come true: Moria himself must face all the shadows and, as their current governor, command them to return to their masters. Luffy understands the simple part immediately: "And by doing that, you'll make all the shadows come back?" Moria confirms it, then mocks Luffy's chances. If Luffy can make him weak enough to do it, that is fine, but with Luffy's level of power, he cannot even lay a finger on Moria. Luffy answers by starting "Gomu Gomu no...!!!" Page 3: Luffy lunges with "Pistol!!!" and his stretched fist slams into Moria's body. For one instant it looks as if the hit landed, but Luffy realizes something is wrong: "A shadow!?" Moria grins, "Kishishishi, try winning... against my clone..." and the black shape pulls itself free. He names it "Doppelman!" The shadow copy wriggles and rises beside him, a living silhouette with claws, teeth, and the same mocking presence as its master. The fight has become stranger than a direct duel. Luffy is not merely trying to hit Moria; he must deal with a mobile shadow clone that can take his attacks and answer them. Page 4: Moria boasts about the philosophy behind his power. In the past, he says, he was filled with overestimation and aspiration for his own power, but now he has learned the importance of excellent underlings. He declares, "I'm the man who'll become the Pirate King by using the power of others, not by using my hands!" Luffy snaps back, "I'm the one who'll become the Pirate King!!!" as Doppelman moves in front of him like a living wall. Moria notes that Luffy's own zombie said the same thing, but he also observes a large physical difference between shadow and body. The previous master's will remains stronger in a shadow than expected, though he calls that only a question of time. Page 5: Moria says that when Oars finally loses all memory of being Luffy, he will become a zombie completely obedient to him. No matter how powerful Oars's ego is, every zombie will eventually meet "absolute obedience." Luffy demands that Moria return the shadow immediately and launches "Gomu Gomu no...!!!" into another attack. But Doppelman intercepts him again, and Moria counters with "Brick Bat!!" The shadow splits into a swarm of dark bat-like pieces and pelts Luffy from all sides. Luffy tries to answer with "Gatling Gun!!!" but each strike is swallowed by the moving shadow mass. Moria is not fighting with strength; he is forcing Luffy to fight something his fists cannot hold. Page 6: Doppelman's pieces surround Luffy in a spinning storm. He grits his teeth and punches into them, but the black shapes scatter and reform faster than he can connect. Luffy shouts, "Damn!! He's completely guarded!!! I can't hit him!!!" while the shadow bats rebound around him and strike from blind angles. Moria hums smugly nearby, completely relaxed as his clone does the work. When Luffy is hit and cries "Ouch!!!" Moria has already proved his point: attacking the shadow directly is useless if it can split, dodge, and reform. Luffy is trapped in a fight where every punch seems to hit nothing solid. Page 7: Moria watches Luffy struggle and laughs, "Kishishishi, rest assured, they won't suck your blood! What will kick my ass? Don't make me laugh!!" Luffy is burie...
