Save the world from Luffy

Chapter 196 The King of Souls (Second Update)

The swordsman's apology saved Brook from a pile of scattered skeletons, and the ghosts and gods that suddenly appeared were more ferocious than those he had seen on Judiciary Island.

The substantive aura is no longer a pure illusion, it just disappeared in a flash, leaving a deep black light on the already dilapidated deck.

The nine slashing lines spread out soundlessly, and were smashed by Lu Fei's hand, but they also left several blood lines that quickly recovered in his palm.

The strong man's apology came from the heart, and his strength and attitude became the reasons for his willingness to accept this apology, but Brook, who was still terrified, still held his left chest.

"My heart was so scared that it almost stopped working."

"Although the skeleton has no heart~yohohoho~"

The exaggerated interpretation allowed this twist to be quickly skipped, but in the end, Brooke still asked.

"Is it because of the Yellow Spring fruit? What happened to this fruit?"

Brook looked at the two floating spirit bodies that appeared beside Sauron, then shook his head thoughtfully, and sighed.

"The fruit of Huangquan really has the power to bring people back to life."

Brook attracted his eyes and slowly told his story.

"In this dark, foggy sea where day and night never change."

After a brief absence, he stroked the deck and his voice became completely different from before.

"The companions are all dead.
Alone on a big ship with a broken rudder
Floating, floating. I have been wandering like this for decades, maybe even longer.

I really am"

Brook covered his face, with only his bone knuckles unable to cover his empty eye sockets. He saw the three little cuties who were working hard to "save their companions."

"I'm really, really lonely.
In this sea area full of ghost ships and only ghost ships, I feel lonely and scared.

Sometimes. Sometimes I really want to die, but I can actually live for such a long time. "

He let go of his palm and squeezed out a smile, maybe it was a smile, a smile full of bitterness, the bitterness of joy that can be detected even if only bones are left.

"You should know." Brook pointed to the broken sail with a broken skull painted on it, "I used to be a pirate."

"I once took this ship with my companions and sailed into this sea of ​​monsters shrouded in thick fog, but unfortunately, we encountered a group of super powerful colleagues here."

Brook raised his hand a little excitedly, but then put it down quickly. That is already in the past, and it is not something to brag about.

"At that time, we were wiped out"

"There should be three pirate ships, and only one of you is connected to the board. Those people are despicable guys, and they smeared poison on their weapons. Your ship doctor was killed in the battle, and then the seriously injured partners followed. One fell here, a total of 85 people."

Luffy closed his eyes and listened to the whispers of the ghost ship.

"Even if everyone has forgotten you, even if there is no history to record all this." Luffy took a deep breath and opened his closed eyes.

"But he remembers."

Luffy reached out and knocked on the deck, and relayed the last words: "The only regret of the little guy is that when you come back, he can no longer be with you."

"On this ship, a ship spirit was once born, but with the destruction of the ship and the death of its companions, the ship spirit will also dissipate. The moment he saw you standing up, the little guy still couldn't hold on .”

"You were not annihilated, but fought and died with glory. You are a corrupt pirate group who used poison. You do not deserve to be called your super powerful peers. Pirates and pirates are different after all. Come on, Brooke."

Hugging the skeleton man with only a handful of bones left, whose words and actions were full of sadness and laughter, Lu Fei wiped away the tears from the face of the man who cried like a foolish child.

A dead skeleton won't shed tears, but a human being will, even if all he has left is bones.

Wiping his face vigorously, decades of wandering alone gave him an extremely strong heart, and Brook's voice returned to calm.

"Where did you just say that?
It should be about the fruit of the underworld, right? "

Sitting in the middle of the crowd, feeling the warm breath of life that he hadn't experienced for a long time, Brooke suddenly relaxed, cleared his throat and opened his mouth.

"Although the fruit of Huangquan only turned me into a landlubber when I was alive, it was on that day that the fruit's ability was activated."

Zoro listened to every syllable attentively, for fear of missing something.

"My soul floated back to the real world from the underworld"

"What kind of place is there? I mean Huangquan." Sauron still didn't hold back, he interrupted Brook's words.

"Aren't these two beautiful ladies?"

"When they died, their souls were stored in the carrier, and they did not go to the world of the dead."

"This is really great." Brooke sighed softly, curled up a little coldly, "That couldn't be better."

"If it wasn't for the fruit of the underworld, I wouldn't be able to penetrate the door to the world of life and death, and I wouldn't be able to return to the real world."

"Don't be curious about the destination of the dead, it's not a place that the living need to know."

Although Brook didn't answer Sauron's question, the swordsman didn't force it either. He nodded to Brook and continued to listen.

"Originally, I could be resurrected as long as I entered my body immediately, but as you can see, the sea where I died is a sea of ​​demons covered in dense fog."

"Only when I'm very close to my body can I feel my connection with him. This thick fog is soaked in some strange breaths that I don't even know."

"I'm lost here, and I've been wandering in this dense fog in the form of a soul for a year, maybe a year." Brook looked at Luffy inquiringly.

"Three years and three months."

Brooke laughed miserably, "Time is already a vague word to me."

"But it was also at that time that I found my body. As you can see, all I have left is this skeleton and this afro that I'm proud of."

"I was so scared that my eyes almost popped out."

"Although I don't have eyeballs 0-0~yohohohoho~"

The suddenly raised voice was filled with joyful self-deprecation, and coupled with the exaggerated movements, it made the group of people sitting together laugh.

"The fruit of the underworld revived me, but the fruit of the underworld does not give me the ability to resurrect other people."

"terribly sorry."

Brook spoke seriously to Sauron, which made the swordsman wave his hand in a panic and refuse.

"Perhaps, there is still a small chance."

Luffy flicked Brook's cane with his fingers and asked him, "You should be a swordsman too, right?"

Hearing this, Brooke took out the double-edged sword hidden in the cane.

"Indeed."

"That's easy." Luffy stood up and waved to everyone, "But before that, let's welcome our little hero first!"

"Mary Ann, don't reveal your secrets."

Marianne, who was wearing a cute nightgown, nodded, and then closed her eyes, turning into a sleeping beauty like a delicate doll.

They quickly packed up their unfinished snacks, fruit plates, teapots and props, and the footsteps of the three little ones approached quickly.

"Luffy~"

The three little ones who pushed open the hatch sobbed softly.

"We do not"

"You succeeded!"

"And it was a great success. You also rescued a... Uh... who was trapped on this ship for decades and couldn't leave." Luffy glanced at Brook, "The king of souls who has been fighting against the demon Skeleton King for a long time. "

Brooke held the cane and bowed politely to the three little ones, but the coldness of the pale bones had now disappeared and was full of fresh breath.

PS: I feel really bad about the first update. I took a nap and coded one. When I get up tomorrow morning, I will make up for what I should have updated yesterday.
