Grand Line's Lord Of Shadows

"Hmm..."

"too delicious!"

"Why didn't you think the food these guys cooked was delicious before?"

time flies.

In a blink of an eye, it was already noon.

Zombies with Grandmaster's cooking skills have already prepared a sumptuous lunch for them.

BBQ, dishes, desserts, juices, drinks...

The aroma is tangy.

It's not just two big men, William himself and Dr. Hogba Gu.

Even Perona, the Princess Mononoke, couldn't be restrained and gobbled it up.

However, within a short time, she and Hogba Gu were unable to eat any more.

My belly is swollen.

All I could do was watch William, feasting there.

Moreover, there was a lot of food being served constantly.

That exaggerated appetite.

Jaw-dropping.

"Grrr...grrr..."

All of a sudden, William's bulging belly.

It flattened down in an instant, and then continued to enjoy the food.

Taking in the energy and nutrients in food to supplement the consumption caused by high-intensity training.

On weekdays, when he is not in a hurry, although he eats an astonishing amount, he does not devour everything, but enjoys the delicious food there.

This is also one of his hobbies in life.

Isn't it just for enjoyment that people live?

I work so hard that I want to make progress, become stronger, and control my own destiny.

Isn’t it just to enjoy life better?

He will not become an ascetic.

The will to work hard two hundred times beyond ordinary people and practice hard.

For the sake of ambition, for the sake of becoming stronger, he does not hesitate to risk his life, the courage to risk everything, the madness of putting everything on the line...

He has all of these.

But there is no need to push yourself so hard and become a complete slave to strength.

When it's time to enjoy, he won't treat himself badly.

"Every time, Sir William's belly feels like a bottomless pit!"

Perona complained there.

These days, similar scenes have happened so many times that she is used to it.

"Having mastered the return of life, it's like eating as much as you want without fear of getting fat!" Dr. Hogba Gu, who was almost unable to walk, hugged his round belly and bared his teeth in envy.

"By the way, Perona..."

Just swallowed a large piece of bone-in meat.

After taking a sip of juice, William remembered something and asked Perona directly: "Have you found that Brook?"

these days.

He lets the opponent use the ghost fruit's ability at their leisure.

Send the ghost outside to find the whereabouts of Brook, the "nose singer".

"I found it. I just found it early this morning. I've been letting the ghost of negativity keep an eye on me!"

Perona on the side said confidently: "That guy is right in front of our ship's course!"

"But Mr. William, is it really necessary to recruit that guy?" Dr. Hogba Gu was full of confusion and said with a strange smile: "Hiss~hiss~hiss~, if you ask me, just plunder his shadow. Already..."

In his opinion.

Brook's strength is mediocre.

There's nothing worth recruiting.

It's better to just plunder its shadow and resurrect a zombie general.

After all, the corpses of those zombie generals have now been perfectly repaired by him.

Once the implanted shadow is resurrected, its strength will be far greater than the zombie general created by Moria last time.

"The power of the Underworld Fruit is pretty good..."

After destroying the last pizza, I burped with satisfaction.

Taking the tissue handed over by Perona and wiping the greasy corners of his mouth, William said with a faint smile: "It's just that the guy hasn't realized this yet and hasn't been able to use his abilities!"

the most important is.

That "nose singer" Brook is not completely without potential.

And he is also a musician, which at least can relieve boredom during the boring sailing journey.

If you train them well, you can still be a core cadre in your own team in the future.

"Perona, you go and command the zombie soldiers to sail the boat and go directly there!"

"Hehe~hehe~hehe~, good!"

…

"Yo ho ho ho~~~Yo ho ho ho~~~"

“Sending Binx’s wine to you~~~”

Far away.

From the coast, there was a burst of singing.

Some zombie soldiers vaguely heard it.

"Shadow is back, I'm so happy..."

The rudder of a ship has been destroyed and it is drifting on the pirate ship.

A skeleton with an afro and a dress was amusing himself there: "Tilted at forty-five degrees——"

In various poses.

Looking at the shadow under my feet is full of joy.

But soon, his whole body was shaken violently, and the skull's jaw almost fell to the ground.

"Is that... a ship of terror!?"

Looking at the huge island ship slowly emerging from the fog that cannot see the sun, becoming increasingly clear.

Brook was a little shocked: "Are those guys coming to steal my shadow again?"

"No...we are not here to take away your shadow!"

suddenly.

A chuckle echoed in Brook's ears.

It shocked him all over.

"Who is it?" He immediately drew out his staff and sword.

He looked warily towards the direction from which the sound came.

I don’t know when it started.

A tall and heroic young figure wearing casual clothes appeared there.

He was sitting on the bow of the boat, looking at him with a smile.

"Who are you?"

Brook's eyes widened.

This tall young man is undoubtedly a real person.

It was completely different from his impression of the three weirdos and zombies under Moria.

"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm..."

William was smiling.

He did not hide his identity, and introduced himself: "When we first met, my name is Orbach William, and I am the new owner of the Terror Ship... Your shadow was the one who escaped from the zombies and came back after I killed that guy Gekko Moria. of!"

"In a sense, I am still your benefactor!"

"What?"

Brook was shocked.

He looked at the impossibly young William in front of him in disbelief: "Did you defeat Moria? Released my shadow?"

"Don't believe it?"

William tilted his head and smiled slightly.

The shadow under his feet was directly separated from him, and he stood upright.

As if it had a sense of life, it transformed into a dark figure with the same silhouette.

"This is?"

This is an amazing scene.

Brook's pupils shrank sharply, and he was a little frightened.

"As you can see..." William said with a smile: "After killing Moria, his ability was unexpectedly reborn on the ship of terror, and I got it!"

"Now, I am the new Shadow Fruit user!"

"hiss--"

Brook gasped and lost his voice in shock: "You got Moria's ability?"

He never expected it.

Such a coincidence happened to the other party.

It's incredible.

"I already know your identity..."

William looked at Brook who was in disbelief and said straight to the point: "Brook, the user with the ability of the Underworld Fruit and the Nose Singer...do you want to join my team?"

"I believe you must be troubled by being trapped in this sea for decades, right? As long as you are willing to work for me, I can take you out of this sea and continue your adventure!"

"Really?"

Brook was shaken all over.

Everyone's eyes widened.

I couldn't help but stepped forward and grabbed William, where he said excitedly: "I am willing, I am willing to join you!"

"As long as you can take me outside, to the Twin Capes at the entrance of the Grand Line, to complete the agreement with Laboon... No matter what the conditions are, I promise you!"
