People are pirates, and a sheep comes to open the gate of heaven

Chapter 153 All fear stems from lack of firepower
"Calm down Rhea."

Aoun patted Rhea's head gently and said seriously:

"There are no ghosts in this world."

Having said this, he hesitated for a moment, and after thinking about it, he added in his mind: Except for the ship elves...

"Then how should we explain this guy?" Rhea asked, pointing at Brooke.

"Maybe it's just some weird ability user." Aoun pretended to "guess" casually.

Hearing Aoun tell the truth in one sentence, Brook couldn't help but give a thumbs up:

"Yo ho ho ho~ This little brother, you are really perceptive. I am indeed a user with the Underworld Fruit ability. It was just because I encountered some accidents while the fruit was taking effect that I became what I am now. "

"The Fruit of the Underworld?" Robin remembered that he seemed to have heard of this fruit in some book, so he invited Brooke to the deck and said:

"Is it that magical fruit that can bring the dead back to life? I thought it was just an illusory thing in ancient legends."

"What a knowledgeable lady, beautiful and knowledgeable lady, may I have a look at your underwear?"

Brooke looked at Robin with empty eyes, it was obviously just a skeleton, but he showed a completely wretched expression.

Aoun stood in front of Robin, with hot lava emerging from his hands, and said to Brooke with a smile on his face:
"If you want to feel the feeling of bones being burned to ashes, you can take a look."

"Ahem, let's forget it." Brooke waved his hand, and then told his story.

From his soul getting lost after his death, to his body being nothing but a skeleton when he found his original body, to his shadow being taken away by Moria a few years ago.

As everyone in the Orn Pirates listened to Brooke's story, they couldn't help but feel sympathy on their faces.

After being resurrected, he turned into a skeleton, and his shadow was snatched away by Moria. This is really unusual misfortune.

Only two people on the boat still looked normal after hearing Brooke's story. One was Aoun, who was already familiar with all this, and the other was Robin, who was well-informed.

After hearing Brooke's story, Robin couldn't help but have a thoughtful look on his face:
"You said you must take back your own shadow to fulfill the agreement you made with your partner, but you have been a skeleton for such a long time. Are you sure your partner is still alive?"

"It must still be alive!" Brooke firmly grasped the "Yinbei" he carried with him and said firmly:

"He was still very young when we made the agreement with that partner. Even if decades have passed, I believe he is still alive and well!"

Looking at Brooke with a firm tone in front of him, Aoun secretly said in his heart: It's almost time.

Then he asked his own question at the right time:
"Can you tell us about your partner?"

"Of course, no problem. His name is Rab, and he is an island whale. When we separated from him, he was just a few years old. We were worried that he would not be able to survive in the Grand Line, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Yamato beside Aoun exclaimed:
"Rabu?! You are from the Lumba Pirates!"

Not to mention Yamato, even Rhea, who had always been afraid of skeletons, now widened his eyes, and the fear in his eyes disappeared without a trace.

She knew about the agreement between Yamato and Labu, but now she actually met Labu's former partner, and the warmth in her heart immediately dissipated the fear.

Brooke noticed Yamato's shocked expression, and vaguely guessed something in his heart, and his whole body trembled faintly:

"Could it be that, this lady, have you ever met Rab before?"

"Yeah, Rab is still in Twin Gorges, banging his head against the Red Earth Continent every day, trying to reunite with you!"

"Rabbing it actually..."

Thinking that Rab had been waiting for him for decades, Brooke felt even more guilty, wishing he could defeat Ryoma and take back his shadow now.

"Wait a minute Brooke," Aoun called to Brooke who was about to disembark:

"We came to this Devil's Triangle to find a chef named Laura. Have you heard of this name?"

"Lola?" Brooke thought about the name seriously, then shook his head slightly:

"I have never heard of this name, but if this person really entered the Devil's Triangle, then she must have lost her shadow to Moria.

I know there is an Association for Shadowless Victims in the forest on this island. Maybe you can go there and ask, and I can show you the way. "

"Then I'll trouble you." Aoun said, pulling out the permanent pointer to the Twin Gorges from the cabin and throwing it to Brooke:

"After you find your own shadow, you can return to Twin Gorges with this permanent pointer."

Because the Shichibukai can apply to the government for permanent pointers to several key nodes, Aoun does not lack this stuff, so he doesn't feel bad about handing over the permanent pointer that Whitebeard gave him to Brooke.

"I'm so grateful!" Looking at the permanent pointer in his hand, Brooke felt that the last obstacle to his reunion with Rab had disappeared.Full of excitement, he bent down and took off his hat to Ornn.

"Come with me, I will take you to see the Victims Association."

…………

Under Brook's guidance, the Furnace was getting closer and closer to the huge island in the center, but just when everyone was about to land, Orn, Yamato and Peyton frowned unconsciously.

There was nothing in front of them, but they felt a sense of crisis.

Without Ornn's order, Payton immediately took out the revolver from his waist and fired a shot towards the seven o'clock position.

The bullet flew past Brooke's explosive head and suddenly exploded in the air about dozens of meters away from the Furnace, causing a considerable impact.

"Someone is actually attacking us, but why didn't we see any bullets?"

Rhea looked at the explosion that suddenly appeared in the air and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's probably another tricky fruit ability." Peyton jumped from the observation deck and stood next to Rhea and whispered.

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly looked somewhere behind Robin, and he pulled the revolver trigger again.

Bang!
A handful of blood flowers suddenly burst into the air, and immediately after, a translucent figure gradually emerged. It was Absalom who had sneaked up to tease Robin.

Seeing that he was actually discovered by the sniper on the ship, Absalom couldn't help but be surprised, but he couldn't care less about the pain in his body and subconsciously wanted to escape back to the shore.

"Where to escape!" Rhea screamed, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Absalom, and punched Absalom, who was about to become transparent.

Feeling the strong wind coming from behind, Abu gritted his teeth and turned around to punch him as well.

As a transparent fruit user, although he is not good at frontal combat, his strength should not be underestimated. After being transformed by Hogback, he has the skin of an elephant and the strength of a bear and an orangutan.

A punch thrown at the critical moment actually allowed him to block the punch at the cost of minor injuries. He even relied on the force of the counter-shock to successfully fall back to the shore.

As soon as he landed, he activated the fruit power again and disappeared, leaving only blood stains on the ground.

"I told you not to be impulsive, but you just didn't listen. Let's be okay this time." In the open space outside the castle, Moria said with a sarcastic expression, leaning against the wall of the castle.

After the ridicule, he did not forget about business:

"Tell me what kind of people that goat kid's men are."

"No, I don't know..." Absalom touched his face in embarrassment:
"The sniper on their ship was weird. He could actually see through the rockets I shot with the transparent fruit. Before I could make any move, he was shot by him."

After hearing Abu's narration, Moria couldn't help but have a flash of light in his eyes:
"Is it because of the knowledge? It's not easy to find a sniper with this kind of ability in the park. Yes, yes, it's just right to use his shadow to make a zombie general!"

Moria, who had also been around in the New World in his early years, although now down and out, still has a good vision, so he quickly judged that the other party should be a strong man with the domineering power of seeing, hearing and color after listening to Abu's words. .

"It's just that my subordinates can master the Haki of Wisdom and Information. It seems that this boy is not easy at all. No wonder he can kill that crocodile. I seemed to have underestimated him before."

Moria was talking like this, but soon, an arrogant smile appeared on his face again:
"But it doesn't matter, so what if I master the two-color hegemony? Can I escape the siege of the zombie army? I can defeat several zombie generals with just the armed color... And I just need to find an opportunity to cut off your shadow. enough!"

"Lord Moria, what should we do next?" Perona looked at Moria with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

"Wait here, wait for them to come and throw themselves into the trap." Moria said this, his eyes fell on Perona:

"But Peipei, you have to hide it first. If that kid really masters any moves beyond my expectation, you will need to rely on your ability to make him obedient."

"Hoohohohoho, I understand! Pepe's negative ghost will give him a big surprise!"

Perona smiled and lay down on Kumasi, looking like a harmless little lolita.

…………

"Damn it, let that guy run away!"

After getting off the Furnace, Rhea looked at the blood stains on the ground and subconsciously wanted to chase after it.

"Don't worry." Aoun raised his hand to stop Rhea: "The most important thing now is to find out Laura's whereabouts. After we find out Laura's whereabouts, there will be plenty of time for you to take action."

Having said this, Aoun turned his head and looked at the Furnace with some feeling, and saw Bellamy carefully opening the cabin door and leaning out half of his body.

There was still a bandage on his chest, and he noticed Aoun's gaze looking over him, with an obviously uncomfortable look on his face, and subconsciously wanted to close the door and go back.

"Since you want to come with me, please pay attention to yourself, don't die."

After saying this, Aoun stopped looking at him and just said to Brooke:

"Lead the way, Brooke."

"Come with me."

While speaking, Brooke headed towards the dense forest on the island first, followed closely by Aoun and others.

Bellamy looked at Ornn's back, hesitated for a moment and finally followed him obediently...

The group of people wandered around in the dense forest, and encountered many scary zombies during the process, which scared Rhea and screamed again and again.

However, after kicking the heads of several zombies in succession, Rhea discovered that this thing was very weak, and it did not have the ability in horror stories to turn other people into zombies as long as it caught them.

So even she, who was most afraid of these gods and ghosts, gradually adapted to this atmosphere - as expected, all the fear stemmed from the lack of firepower.

"This is it, the Association of Shadowless Victims."

Finally, Brooke stood in an open space in the forest:
"Mr. Spoiro, Mr. Spoiro, are you there?"

As Brooke called, an old man with a stooped figure, covered with bandages, and looked like a zombie walked out carrying an old lantern.

"Are there zombies coming out again?" Rhea yelled, and came up with a handsome knight kick to try to blow the opponent's head off.

"Don't do it, I'm not a zombie!" The old man was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, and the wind lantern in his hand kept shaking as he waved his hand.

After a conversation, the two parties finally resolved the misunderstanding and learned their respective identities.

“I see, you are here to find Laura.”

Having said this, the old man cleared his throat, turned and shouted into the jungle:

"Laura, Laura, someone is looking for you."

Following the old man's shout, a group of people curiously poked their heads out of the dense forest.

The leader is a woman with a big head and thick lips who is about two meters tall, carries two double swords on her back, and has a body proportion of a standard 23cm--it is Auntie's [-]rd daughter Charlotte Lola!

"Who's looking for me? He's a handsome guy!"

The thick-lipped woman's eyes lit up the moment she saw Aoun, and she immediately came up to her and said with an infatuated face:

"I like you so much, can you marry me?"

amount……

To be honest, although he was mentally prepared, Aoun was still taken aback by Laura's sudden proposal.

The main reason is that anyone with such a big face would shudder.

"Huh?!" Not only Aoun, but also the rest of the pirate group were shocked by Laura's explosive speech.

"Sorry, no..."

Almost as soon as Aoun finished speaking, everyone behind Laura burst into cheers:
"Rejected again!"

"The captain's 4440th marriage proposal!"

"What about you?" Seeing that Aoun was not going to agree, Laura then looked at Payton and others. Although they were not as handsome as Aoun, they seemed to be good marriage partners.

At this time, Payton and others were also embarrassed, and they could only express their apology and obey the order in embarrassment.

"I was rejected by four people in succession, and the number of marriage proposals suddenly increased to 4443!"

"Okay, then what do you want from me?" Laura sighed softly, then adjusted her mood and asked Aoun again.

As soon as she said these words, everyone in the Orn Pirates was shocked again:
"Huh?! You are Laura!"

This sister, compared to the older sister Garrett, is so far apart!
