Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 288 The White Ghost
"Oh?? Why????" Luffy was dumbfounded for a moment, not knowing why such an interesting bone refused his invitation.

"As I said just now, I have been deprived of my shadow, and my body cannot live in the sun. Protect me in this magical sea covered by thick fog, but even if I leave this sea area with you, my body will not be able to live in the sun." Sooner or later, it will be reduced to ashes. I decided to stay here and wait for the miraculous day of recapturing the shadow. Yohohohoho~~~"

"Boom", Lu Fei slammed the table hard, stood up and said a little angrily, "What are you talking about, it's so strange! If you need a shadow, I will help you get it back! Didn't you say that someone took it away?" who? where??"

Brook looked at this hot-blooded young man in shock, but still shook his head rationally and refused, "You are really a good person, but I can't tell you. How can I make you who I just met die for me?"

"Is the enemy too powerful?" Franky looked at him with a little interest, "If you say it, you won't lose a piece of meat, so tell the head office?"

"No, I can't tell." Brooke insisted on this, "Actually, I don't know where he is, and I don't know if I can see that person again. But if I can see him, I decided to fight to the death!"

Everyone looked at the skeleton quietly, not just what to say now.

After thinking about it, Anke asked, "Speaking of which, you said you haven't seen the sun for a long time, right?"

"Huh?", I don't know why the little girl suddenly asked, but Brooke nodded, "Yes, it's been several years."

"That's it~~" Anke slightly squinted his blood-red left eye, and the number in his pupil became "one" in an instant, and the smile on his face carried a different meaning, "Why don't I give you a gift~ ~"

"Gift??" Brook was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly found that the tidy and luxurious restaurant had transformed into a boundless grassland.

The green grass dancing under the wind, the breeze with the fragrance of green grass, the sky that is too blue, the clouds that are so white that there is no blemish, and the bright sunshine is shining on the grassland.Apart from the unnatural wooden dining table, everything else is so mysterious.

"What is this..." Brook stood motionless on the prairie, feeling the bright sunshine that he hadn't seen in years, the breeze on his face, and the green grass dancing at his feet. Rhythm.

It's just a very ordinary grassland, just a very ordinary sunshine, but it makes Brooke feel as if he is in a fairyland. The existence of every place is so ordinary, but so extraordinary.

The Straw Hat Pirates sat a little far away from Brook so as not to disturb him.

Frankie pushed up his sunglasses and took a look at this illusion, which seemed real, and sighed: "No matter how many times I watch it, I still find it super incredible. How did you do it?"

"This is the first time you have entered the fantasy world of the little cutie, right? Frankie." Sanji glanced at the pervert angrily, and then he was also full of surprises, "However, the fantasy world of the little cutie is really It's beautiful~~"

"Really, it's exactly the same as the real thing." Nami smiled and bent over to pick up a piece of grass, shook it and looked at Bones standing not far away, "But how long has it been since he saw the sun? Totally stupid."

"Hehe, although it's fake, it's good to give him some comfort~~~", Anke shrugged with a smile, and didn't say clearly that he just wanted to experiment with whether illusion works for people without eyes .

"That's true," Sauron nodded solemnly, "I remember that the condition for Encore to get rid of the world government completely is to let people all over the world forget about her. And Brooke doesn't seem to belong to people. The ability that Encore can display may be will have no effect on him."

Robin also thought of this, nodded and said: "Indeed, if this is the case, we have to be careful of those who are not human."

"But he's a human, Encore." Luffy looked at his vice-captain suspiciously, why did he feel that other than him, other partners didn't regard that skeleton as a human? "

"Hehe, don't mind Luffy~~", Anke smiled and unlocked the illusion, then slightly squinted the left eye that switched back to the sixth ability, and said with a smile: "I seldom treat people as people~~~"

Hearing this, Lu Fei frowned slightly. After being silent for a while, he suddenly reached out to poke her forehead with a puffy face, and said dissatisfiedly: "I told you I don't like you laughing like this!"

"Yes, sorry~~~"

And over there, Brooke, who had been there for a long time, finally made a move. With trembling hands, he touched his own bony face, pulled his hair, and then faced a group of people sitting there, asking for proof: "Just now ,Sunlight……"

"Yeah.", collectively nodding.

"The sun shines on me, but I haven't disappeared??" Touching his thin body with slightly trembling hand bones, Brook couldn't imagine what happened in those few seconds just now.Why did the restaurant suddenly turn into a prairie, and under the bright sunshine, he didn't disappear without a shadow? !

"Hehe, isn't this a good dream? Mr. Brook?" Anke asked with a low smile. From his reaction, one can guess that this bone just saw the illusion created by her.

"Sunshine...sunshine...sunshine...", after murmuring a few times, Brook tied up suddenly, and then walked around in a panic, trying to find a safe place to hide in the restaurant, "Oops, Oops!! I saw It's sunny!!!"

"Hahaha, it's really interesting!!" Luffy covered his stomach and laughed, and after laughing for a while, he explained to him: "It's just an illusion, and it won't make you disappear. Encore just watched you for a long time I’ve never seen the sun before, so I just let you feel the sun.”

Brooke, who stayed there immediately, was a little puzzled by the words he heard, "Hallucinations?"

Robin explained lightly: "It's like a dream, it doesn't exist but it can make you feel very real."

"Dreaming? I see..." Brook stretched out his bone-like hands in front of him, and then slowly clenched them, as if feeling the dreamlike existence just now.With emotion, he hugged himself slowly, "Sure enough, the sun is so warm..."

When everyone saw him like that, they smiled at each other and didn't disturb him.Although I don't know what it's like not to have been exposed to the sun for several years, but thinking about it, I know it's intolerable, especially in this dark and depressing situation and I'm still alone.

Sighing contentedly, Brooke bowed deeply to Encore, "Thank you! Lovely little lady! This is really a great gift! If I still have tears now, I must be grateful !"

"You're welcome, it's just a matter of raising your hands~~" Anke lightly smiled and touched his left eye, and changed the subject without a trace, "Speaking of which, Mr. Brook, have you ever seen this eye?"

"Eyes??" Brook raised his head in doubt, and when he saw the interrogator's magical eyes, he immediately froze.

Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, and she looked shocked (it's all guesswork, after all, it's hard to see the expression from a skeleton~~), everyone became vigilant.

"Does he have an impression of the little cutie's eyes?" Sanji stood up from the chair, arching his body slightly.

"Don't move around, and make a decision after seeing what he will say later." Sauron warned others in a low voice, but he pulled out the knife a little bit himself.

Luffy also withdrew his smile, put his right hand on the straw hat and looked at the skeleton in silence.

"How... how...", under the vigilant eyes of everyone, Brooke finally started to utter a few words. After saying a few "how", he immediately jumped up, rushed to Encore and looked up and down excitedly, He was still chanting: "What a beautiful different pupil?? It's like a gem~~Miss, you are so cute~~~"

The skeleton's reaction was a bit unexpected, but then everyone let down their vigilance a little.

Even in the face of the eerie skeleton, even though the two black holes were almost stuck in front of him, Enke still smiled super calmly and said: "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Brook~"

"It's better not to get the skeleton so close to our co-captain..." Sanji, who was ringing in his heart, stretched out his hand to pull him to a safe range when he saw the skeleton showing signs of a pervert.

"Ah, I'm sorry~~ But it's really beautiful~~ Both the color and the shape are so cute~~~"

"Hahaha! Isn't that right?! Encore's eyes are super beautiful~~" Luffy, who was laughing, stretched out his hand and put it on the shoulder of his vice-captain, his face full of pride.

"Yes. Mr. Luffy, you are really lucky. If this is the case, let me sing a song for everyone while the atmosphere is right~" After finally recovering the skeleton of a gentleman, he walked to the corner, picked up his hand Bring it over and open the case, and take out the well-maintained violin and put it on your shoulder.

After the posture was prepared in a standard way, Brooke said: "I am very good at musical instruments. I used to be a musician in the Pirates."

"Musician?? Really??" Luffy suddenly became excited. After all, the other party is both a talking skeleton and a musician, which is exactly the type he wants, "Please, join us~~ Bastard~~~”

For his warm invitation, Brooke did not answer, but just took it easy and said lightly: "If this is the case, let's have a happy boat song~~"

"Oh!!" Luffy, who was looking forward to it, looked at him with twinkling eyes, and the others also looked forward to it. After all, they haven't heard a good song for a long time.

However, after Brook settled his posture, he suddenly trembled all over, and his white teeth became wider and wider, as if he saw something horrifying.

Almost at the same time, Anke suddenly looked in the direction he was facing, and the trident appeared in her vacant right hand in an instant, but she didn't throw it immediately, but pointed it vigilantly at the ceiling above.

"Don't!!!" Finally screaming out of fright, Brook slipped his feet and immediately sat on the ground, looking up at the ceiling tremblingly, "Youyou ghost!!!"

"What??", Luffy and the others immediately turned their heads to look at the ceiling, and there really was a translucent white ghost coming out of it. The smiling face looked very kind, but they couldn't understand the fear it brought to others.

"The evil spirits disperse, the evil spirits disperse, the evil spirits disperse!!", Usopp kept chanting, while holding the cross Buddha beads and garlic at it, he backed away.The timid Chopper also rushed behind him in an instant, hoping that the ghost would not come here.

"Great!!!", Luffy, who was surprised by this incredible scene again, excitedly watched the snowman-like ghost flying.

Anke tilted his head and looked at the ghost for a while, then sneered, shrunk the trident and threw it out fiercely, directly nailing the fluffy ghost to the wall.

"Ah! The ghost is pinned!!!", Usopp and Chopper, who hugged each other in fright, continued to tremble, but moved tacitly to hide behind Encore.

Nami, who was also afraid of these things, also ran behind Anke trembling like a rabbit, deciding that she would not leave this great god-like existence before she left this sea area.

"So handsome, the ghost is so handsome~~ Encore is even more handsome~~~", Lu Fei rushed to the ghost excitedly, stretched out his paws to touch it, but found that he was just like air, but this did not discourage him, On the contrary, I played more vigorously~~
Surprised by the scene in front of him, Brook immediately petrified there, maintaining the movement of opening his teeth motionless.

Sauron didn't move forward, but stood next to Anke with his right hand resting casually on the hilt of his sword, and then began to look at the so-called 'ghost', "Is this the legendary ghost? It looks so stupid.",
As if knowing that the green algae was scolding him, the ghost moved its oval hands and feet, as if protesting, but it was a pity that it couldn't escape because it was caught.

"But, is this a natural product? Or is it the ability of some fruit?" Sanji couldn't figure out the source of this ghost at all.

"It should be the ability of the fruit, because I feel that someone is controlling it." Encore, who was still super calm, picked up the somewhat cold tea and sipped it slowly.

"It's really good that it's Miss Anke, I can even know this. But it's a rare opportunity, I kind of want to take a photo with this ghost~~", Robin smiled and took out the camera, but just turned around and froze After a while, he put the camera on the table.Just because there is nothing to shoot...

"Strange, how did you escape??" A certain straw hat captain who had let go of the ghost looked at the small trident in his hand suspiciously, not knowing where the snowman ghost went after he pulled the trident out.

"Please, it's no wonder it doesn't run away after being caught by the cutie." Sanji shrugged, and then looked at Anke with doubts, "Speaking of which, cutie, how could you catch that thing just now? ? It obviously has no entity, doesn’t it?”

"Hehe, the ability of my left eye can cause direct damage to souls, ghosts, etc~~~"

"..." Frankie looked at the little girl with black lines all over her head, and then came to a conclusion, "Why do you always feel that your abilities are always so against the sky? No matter whether it is physical or virtual, everything does not work……"

"But the price required for too many sky-defying abilities is also sky-defying~~", Anke replied with a chuckle, and pressed his left eye with a little helplessness, the bitterness in his eyes was obvious. .
