One Piece: I am the Master of Black Magic

"Please don't do this! This lady~"

"stop..."

"Oh hehehe~ This is so rude~"

"No, no no no~"

At the dining table, Brooke sat on the chair in panic, raising her hands in the air and speaking in a panic.

Annie threw herself on him, lifted up his clothes and reached inside, sometimes stuffing her head into his frame.

She stuffed food and drinks into his mouth while pulling and watching him carefully.

Zoro pulled Annie off him with a dark face and looked at Sanji and Nami with dissatisfaction.

"Why did you two follow Luffy? Isn't it just to stop his crazy behavior?"

“No face left!”＊2

"Luffy! What is this?"

Luffy looked at Zoro with a smile.

"He's very interesting! I've made him our partner."

"What do you mean already! Who would agree!"

"I!"

Annie, who was held in his hand, weakly raised her two paws.

……

"Luxury restaurant and sumptuous dinner. Thank you very much for your hospitality. I haven't eaten food for decades and I suffer from chest-to-back hunger every day.

Although I am a skeleton, I have no chest or back, yohohoho~"

"Chef, please bring me milk."

"It's so noisy! Quiet me!"

"欻~"

Annie's figure suddenly appeared next to him, picking up a bottle of milk in her hand, opening his mouth and pouring it down.

She watched in surprise as the milk poured in slowly penetrated into the skeleton, and the broken bones became visibly smooth.

"Amazing!"

“The physical settings in this world are so outrageous!”

Everyone looked at the jumping Annie with dark expressions. She seemed to be very interested in this skeleton.

"The underworld fruit?"

"He is indeed a Devil Fruit user."

"Yes, I died once a few decades ago. The Underworld Fruit had no effect on me while I was alive and turned me into a landlubber. After I died, the power of the fruit made my soul return. This world.

But I lost my direction in the fog. When I found my body, it had turned into a pile of bones. "

"So, you are no longer a monster!"

"Of course! How could I be such a terrible thing!"

"And say no!"

Nami held up a mirror and pointed it at Brooke.

"Ah, please don't point the mirror at me!"

"Nami!"

"Ah~ I can't see him in the mirror!"

"If you look carefully, he has no shadow!"

"Is it a vampire?"

The one who stopped was Annie. She pulled Nami to her side and shook her head at her.

"Don't do that."

"Hey! What's the matter?"

Anne's soul power is extremely powerful, so the moment the mirror was pointed at Brooke, she was keenly aware of Brooke's panic and panic coming from the depths of his soul.

Perhaps, Brooke, who looks happy and pretends to be calm now, would find it difficult to accept that he has become as bone-white as he is now.

"Okay, don't be so nervous."

Under Annie's comfort, everyone sat back together.

Brooke also began to slowly tell the story of his lack of shadow.

Sanji was cleaning up the table where the cups and plates were messed up. Annie looked at Zoro and Usopp who were holding their hands and was in shock. They kicked each other and signaled them to come forward to help.

The two reluctantly rolled up their sleeves under Anne's murderous eyes.

"In other words, you have lost your shadow, so you can only live in this sunless sea that is shrouded in fog all year round, right?"

"Well, that's right."

"All my companions died, and I was left alone to guard the big ship with a broken rudder, drifting in this sea that knew neither time nor season for decades.

I was really lonely, lonely and scared.

I really want to die, but longevity is good. People can bring joy, and you are my joy. "

“What a great day it was! I saw live people, talked to you, and had such a great dinner!

Yohohoho~ Really, thank you very much.If I still have tears, they must be full of tears now. "

The atmosphere was somewhat silent. No one expected that Brooke, who looked cheerful, would be burdened with so many bad memories.

"You were just inviting me."

Brook looked at Luffy.

"Thank you very much for the invitation. In fact, I should have declined."

"Huh? Why?"

“My body cannot leave this sea, as long as I am exposed to the sun, I will turn into ashes.

Therefore, I decided to stay here and wait for a miracle to happen, until the day I get my shadow back. "

Luffy slammed the table.

"What are you talking about! You're so outspoken!"

Annie's unkind tone sounded: "If you hammer the table to pieces, I will tie you up and use you as a swing for Chopper and Merry!"

"Uh, sorry, sorry." Luffy smiled, and then looked at Brooke with a serious face.

"Brooke! If you need Shadow, I will help you get it back! Who is that person? Where is he? You have promised to join my pirate group, you can't go back on it!"

Brook looked at Luffy's serious and serious face and was very moved.

"You are a good person."

"I can't tell you, how can I ask you who have just met to die for me?"

"Is the enemy too strong? Just give me a name, and you won't lose a piece of meat."

"No, no. Actually, I don't know him either..."

"His Majesty the Shichibukai - Moonlight Moria!"

"what?"

"how do you know!"

"It's the Shichibukai again!"

Brooke looked at Annie in surprise, holding her chin indifferently.

"Moonlight Moria is a user with the shadow fruit ability. His favorite thing is to collect the shadows of strong men. Moreover, this sea area is his home base. The terrifying three-masted sailboat floats on this sea all year round."

"That's it!"

"That is to say, as long as you beat that so-and-so Ya away, you can get Brooke's shadow back, right?"

Luffy looked at Annie expectantly, and she nodded in agreement.

"Okay, it's decided! Let's go to a sailboat! Fight off a sailboat!"

"Wait a minute, Mr. Luffy, I appreciate your thoughts, but the strength of Moonlight Moria is not something you and I can match, so you go..."

"Bang~"

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard. Everyone looked up and saw Annie slowly put away her right leg.

"Cough cough~"

There was a coughing sound, and a pool of blood suddenly appeared on the floor.

Annie stepped hard on the man's throat with her right foot, and a figure slowly emerged.

"what?"

"Who is this?"

"When did it appear?"

Annie tilted her head and looked at the person at her feet.

"Absalom, Moria's right-hand man, a user with transparent fruit ability."

"Transparent... fruit..."

"click~"

The cup in Sanji's hand was crushed to pieces.
