Some white powder was sprinkled from above, and it happened to be sprinkled on the huge spider's body that was broken into two parts.

"It's Brooks!" Qi looked up in surprise and saw Brooks falling down the stairs.

At this time, black matter melted out of the giant spider's body, and the black matter turned into a ball and flew away to the sky.

"What is that?" Franky asked with a frown.

"Shadow!" Brooks replied as he fell from the building above.

Seeing that Brooks was about to fall down and hit the ground below, Qi raised his hand and used his breath to wrap the falling body of Brooks. He gently pulled Brooks back, and easily brought Brooks back to the corridor and resolved the problem. Lost the force of Brooks' body falling.

"Thank you, Qi! That black shadow is the soul of the zombie..." After Brooks stood on the covered bridge, he nodded and bowed to Qi, then turned to Franky and said.

"Soul? Watching it run away..." Franky said.

"Going back to the master!" Brooks said, looking up at the dim sky.

"Straw Hat and the others were captured. You seem to know this island well." Franky said to Brooks.

"Yes. But where do we start talking about all this?" Brooks pondered for a moment, "If they have been captured, it is probably too late."

"What? You said it's too late?" Franky said angrily.

"Don't... don't get angry at me! I'll turn pale with fright." Brooks waved his skeleton hand repeatedly, "But I'm a skeleton, so I have no face. Yo ho ho ho... black humor!"

"..." Franky angrily opened the ballistic port on his right arm and aimed it at Brooks' back.

"Stop! He's already dead!" Robin said to dissuade Franky.

"...About five years ago, I was lured onto this horrible ship just like you...I was caught in the building...and a huge, terrifying man appeared...he pulled the shadow of the man next to me from the floor. He got up...and then cut it off with a knife...the stolen shadow was stuffed into the corpse beside him. As a result, guess what? The corpse actually started to dance and move." Brooklyn said regretfully, "My The shadow was cut away in this way."

Robin looked indifferent, as if she had heard of such a thing before.

"The big man who took the shadow away and obeyed him was none other than Moonlight Moria, one of the Seven Martial Arts Under the King. He is the user of the shadow fruit." Brooks explained, "As long as there is a corpse, he can use the shadow to create Out of zombies.”

"It turns out to be a Devil Fruit!" Franky said with his arms crossed.

"The trouble is, the genius surgeon Hogbark, who can make animal corpses stronger, is his accomplice. His medical skills can awaken the bodies of the legendary warriors in the ancient tombs." Brooks said sadly, "Now There are countless corpses frozen in his institute."

"Doctor Hogback... I didn't expect that famous doctor to come here to assist the pirates after he disappeared!" Robin said in surprise.

"...This is the truth about the terrifying barque. For Moria, the greatest advantage of zombies is that they are obedient. However, when the body dies, the shadow will also die, so Moria cannot kill the body whose shadow has been taken away. , but to drive away the pirates who took away the shadow."

"Hey... Then they are not very dangerous..." Franky said anxiously.

"Don't worry, there is still time..." Brooks comforted, "I will tell you the best solution now. Please believe me and do as I say."

"Oh, we believe you," Franky said.

"Wow - really?" Brooks looked too surprised. "I haven't heard anyone say that for decades! I'm so happy!"

"We are listening, please speak up." Robin said.

"You three, take this..." Brooks put a small paper bag in the hands of all three people.

"What is this?" Franky asked, looking at the small paper bag in his hand.

"This is the weakness of zombies. The effect has been verified on the spider monkey just now!" Brooks said proudly.

"Weakness...what?" Franky asked.

"Salt," Brooks replied.

"Salt? Is it something used to remove evil spells?" Franky asked in surprise.

"...Zombies are active under the power of Devil Fruit, and the salt with the power of the sea can cut off the connection between the body and the fake soul!" Brooks explained, "...If you want to defeat the zombies, you must spread the salt Into their mouths! That’s the trick.”

"But why do you know so much about this island?" Robin asked curiously.

"I was stripped of my shadow five years ago. Of course I was thrown on a ship and exiled to the sea. But I was lucky enough to wake up when I could still turn around, so I returned to the island and made a scene. The result was a disastrous failure..." Brooks lowered his head sadly, "In order to save my life, I ran away... I didn't want to die like this... because I was the only survivor on our ship. I must cross this devilish sea in the future to achieve peace. The promise made by my companions... So I ran away. However, even though I came back with a life, it actually couldn't solve any problems..."

Robin, Franky and Chi all fell silent.

"So, I will not run away this time! I must defeat that man and take back the shadow!" Brooks said resolutely.

Suddenly, Brooks was thoughtful.

Qi, Robin and Franky were all slightly startled.

"Well, I'm sorry! I have something urgent to do! Take care of yourself!" Brooks took off his hat to the three of them and left alone.

"Now that we've talked about it...just answer me one more question!" Franky said.

"Huh?" Brooks was slightly stunned.

"The body has turned into a terrifying skeleton, and even the shadow has disappeared. What supports you to live in the fog for decades?" Franky asked.

"It's an agreement. I made an agreement with a friend to meet again. We made an appointment. A man's promise must be fulfilled." Brooks said matter-of-factly.

Brooks's feet jumped a few times, and his light body quickly flew up the uneven wall surface of the building, disappearing into the window above in an instant.

Qi, Franky and Robin continued on, running up the wide and towering stone steps.

Franky burst into tears.

"Franky..." Robin looked at Franky in surprise.

"Ah! It's nothing! Bastard! I'm not crying! Oh... don't stare at me! I haven't seen it!" Franky stretched out a palm to block Robin's sight, and wiped the tears from his face with one hand. .

"Why did you ask him that question?" Robin asked.

"Who wants you to care? I can ask if I want to! Okay, let's go! Woo!" Franky choked while running up the stairs, "Hoo... Damn it, I like that skeleton so much! There is no one better than him in the world. People! Woo hoo hoo..."

"Haha...that's right!" Robin said with a relaxed smile.
