Default dumping a duplex (outlet)

I have need to get rid of a duplex outlet because it interferes with a
cabinet install. The wall it's on is the interior of a block wall which
means there is only 1 - 1.5" space between the block and the back of the
drywall.

What I want to do is route the wires in the existing location to another
location; however, they are too short. What I need to do is wire nut
additional wire to them, contain all in a covered box and fill in the
existing hole in the drywall so that it is flush.

What do I need?
