The Invincible Sword Master of Pirates

"con2580761">

"It's a skeleton..." Chopper, the reindeer, tremblingly held the cross straight and said to Brooks.

"How can a skeleton speak and move, and still have an afro? This is a dream! It's definitely a dream!" Usopp had given up on the cross, strung a string of rosary beads in his hand, and chanted a curse, "Evil The spirit retreats! The evil spirit retreats!"

"Really? Great, it's a dream!" Chopper closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, beautiful girl, can I take a closer look at you?" Brooks spotted Robin and stepped forward to get close to her.

Robin still looked at Brooks' skeleton in confusion.

"Stop being a hooligan! Dead skeleton!" Nami picked up her black boots and threw them at Brooks' skull head.

"Hey! Luffy, what's going on with this guy?" Zoro asked Luffy angrily, pointing at the skeleton man.

"Is it fun? I roped him in!" Luffy said with a smile.

"Join the gang? I won't agree!" Zoro said angrily.

But looking at Luffy's cheerful look, he probably wouldn't believe Zoro's statement.

"What do you two do?" Zoro lost his temper at Nami and Sanji, "Aren't you just asked to stop Luffy's ridiculous behavior?"

In fact, Qi also went with him, but Zoro didn't dare to lose his temper with Qi.

"We are useless!" Nami and Sanji lowered their heads and said in unison.

"Hey ho ho! Don't be so excited! Please come to the cabin? Let's have dinner together!" Brooks said.

"Don't make your own decisions!" Sauron roared.

Brooks came to the restaurant of the Thousand Sunny and sat in the chairman's seat, while Qi sat opposite him.There are six more seats on both sides of the long table. Luffy and Zoro are sitting on the left side, and Robin and Nami are sitting on the right side.Usopp and Chopper were both sitting on the leather sofas against the wall, holding crosses.

Sanzhi was cooking behind the chef's bar, while Frankie was sitting against the bar on the long modern minimalist style leather roller sofa.

Brooks began to praise the restaurant and the ship crazily. Franky felt very comfortable listening to these words.

Brooks, who hadn't eaten anything decent in decades, also enjoyed his meal.He answered why he became a skeleton, it was simple, he ate the underworld fruit.This devil fruit can resurrect the dead.

Brooks's pirate group encountered powerful pirates in the Devil's Triangle and was completely wiped out.Brooks also died. When his soul came back and wanted to find his body to resurrect, he was lost in the fog.After searching for a whole year, when he finally found his body, all that was left was a white skeleton.

"So you become a talking skeleton! Even bones can be resurrected. Devil Fruit is really scary!" Franky sighed.

Usopp brought a mirror to Brooks.As a result, when he looked in the mirror, only Usopp and Chopper were in the mirror, and Brooks, who was looking in the mirror together, was not in the mirror.

If you look closely, there is not even a shadow of Brooks.

"The shadow was taken away by a man a few years ago." Brooks said,

"Took it away?" Nami was stunned.

"The shadow was..." Robin held his head, lost in thought.

"Even the skeleton can move and talk. There is nothing surprising about the rest. But is what you said true?" Zoro has already felt Brooks' sincerity.

"It's true. Being taken away from the shadow also means that I can't survive in a world with light!" Brooks said while holding a cup of hot tea. "If I am exposed to the sun, my body will disappear! I have witnessed it with my own eyes. It was really creepy to see people who had the same experience as me disappear in the sun! Even though I am a skeleton, I have no hair. The light cannot show my shadow, and similarly, I cannot be seen in mirrors or photos!”

Just when everyone was mourning for Brooks, Brooks was very happy.

"In other words, I was rejected by the sun! All my friends are gone, and only Brooks, who left only bones after death, please take care of me!" Brooks patted the empty skull chest and raised his hand.

"Why are you still so optimistic! Your life is miserable!" Sanzhi said with curled eyebrows and a cigarette in his mouth.

"But I still work hard to live! I only rely on my bones!" Brooks said.

"It's so noisy!" Franky and Sanzhi shouted in unison.

"Yo ho ho ho... Yo ho ho ho..." Brooks screamed again.

"Hey! Are you okay?" Usopp said to Brooks, still panicking, holding the cross.

"Today is such a good day! I met so many people!" Brooks said happily. "On this gloomy sea where I don't know day or night... I am alone on a big ship that can't even use the rudder. I have been drifting in the wind for decades. I am really lonely!"

The Straw Hats were deeply shocked as they listened to Brooks's heartfelt confession and felt the loneliness in his words.

Even though Qi has lived for countless years, he has always sought tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, either living in a bustling city or finding a peaceful place close to his hometown. There were peaceful people and things coming and going, and he lived a happy life. .He is not a lonely ghost like Brooks who lives in a gray world, in the dark sea and mist, like a ghost in the dark night.

"I'm lonely and scared! I really want to die! Life is long, but please be happy! To me, you are happiness! Hohoho!" Brooks raised his arms and cheered, "If it weren't for my tears, they would have dried up long ago. , I will definitely cry with joy!”

Everyone was silent.

"I'm really happy that you invited me to join you, thank you!" Brooks stood up and bowed to Luffy.

Luffy responded with a smile.

"But I still have to refuse you!" Brooks said.

"Ah? Why?" Luffy asked, dumbfounded.

"I just said that my shadow was taken away, so I can't survive in the sun! Now I have to rely on the thick fog of this devil's sea to protect myself! If I leave this sea with you, my body will definitely disappear . I want to stay here to take back my shadow, and I want to wait for the day when a miracle occurs! Yohohoho!"

"Hehe! You're so lucky." Luffy said with a smile.

"Oh? I'd love to hear the details." Brooks said.

"The miracle is in front of you. His name is Qi. He is a swordsman who defeated King Shichibu Kaisha Crocodile and Mihawk. He also defeated the user with the ability of the Thunder Fruit, defeated the Navy Admiral Aokiji, and defeated the government secret Law enforcement team CP9." Luffy introduced Qi to Brooks with a smile, "Is he the miracle you are waiting for?"

"Ah! Great! But... I don't know when I will meet the person who took away my shadow again. If I meet him again, I will fight to the death! Let's not talk about that, let's sing! For Celebrating today's encounter. I am still very confident in musical instruments! I was a musician on a pirate ship!" Brooks took out a violin from his shabby black suit. I don't know if he hid the violin in his Inside the hollow skeleton.

"Ah - really? Please, join us!" Luffy's whole body was glowing. He had long proposed to find a musician for the Straw Hat Pirates to join. Isn't the Brooks in front of him the best? Choose!

"Hey ho ho! Then I will present you a cheerful boat ballad first!" Brooks put the violin on his shoulder, put the bow on the strings of the violin, and prepared to play.
