Chapter 486: Prisoner's Library
"Where is this?" Brooke was supposed to immediately join up with Pedro of the Fur Clan after getting the rubbings of the Red History Text. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But instead of finding Pedro, Brooke lost himself.
In fact, Brooke is not lost, he just came to a place called the "Prisoner's Library" from the treasure room in Dessert City.
"There are so many books here, is this what Pedro is talking about as the prisoner's library?" Brooke's heart was filled with curiosity when he saw the huge books lying around. But before Brooke could take a step forward, the guards in the prisoner's library had already spotted Brooke.
"There are intruders?" Seeing Brooke's sudden intrusion, the guards in the prisoner's library immediately raised the alarm.
The prisoners here were all imprisoned in books by Charlotte Mondall using the power of the fruit of the book. It's not just the prisoners, it's also a lot of rare creatures. If Charlotte Lingling saw Brooke and Chopper, she would definitely have her Charlotte Mondale collect them in the books.
Although they have always been the guards here, and they don't know much about the outside world, the movement in the nearby treasure room has long attracted the attention of this side.
"Where are the invaders, are they talking about us?" said Brooke, even though surrounded by enemies, was still able to calmly tell his skeletal jokes.
Even if the enemies besieging Brooke are all living humans, Brooke's ability to awaken the Yellow Spring Fruit cannot easily defeat them, but Brooke's strength does not rely only on the Devil Fruit. Because Brooke is also a very good swordsman, it can be said that Brooke is the only swordsman on the Straw Hats group after Sauron and William.
"Is it a talking skeleton?" The guard in the prisoner's library was not frightened when he saw Brooke's lineup, but shouted excitedly, "This is a rare species! Mom must like this kind of collectible, hurry up and grab him!"
"Symphony, First Movement!" Brooke did not hesitate to draw his hidden sword in the face of the enemy's siege, and under the shadow of the sword, the enemy had already fallen several of his companions before he could see Brooke's slashing clearly. Brooke said with a serious expression, "I'm so sorry! I'm special, but I'm not a collector's item!"
Woo! Woo! Woo!
In the face of the guards' shooting, Brooke took advantage of being a skeleton and kept dodging left and right.
"What's going on with this guy's jumping power?" the guards noticed that Brooke was not only amazingly fast, but even more amazing was Brooke's jumping. Faced with the enemy's question, Brooke dodged the bullet while also replying, "Because I'm a skeleton!
"This bastard is looking down on us!" Hearing Brooke's calm answer, the guards also knew that they and the others were being underestimated.
To be honest, in fact, Brooke really didn't underestimate these guards, but even so, Brooke's character was even so, but unfortunately, Brooke's strength was just a lot stronger than the enemy.
"Yo ho ho, these people are really not friendly at all!" Brooke dodged the bullets as he curiously observed the books on the shelves.
Brooke, however, the more I looked, the more I wanted to see what these books were!
Bang!
A bullet coincidentally hit a kerosene lamp on the wall, and when the kerosene lamp fell to the ground, it did not immediately spill on the ground, and the flames on it spread along the kerosene that flowed out.
"Stupid, hurry up and put out the fire!" Seeing that the fire was strong and a book on a bookshelf had been ignited, the guards' faces instantly turned white.
These books contain not only rare creatures, but also many prisoners. If the books were destroyed, the prisoners inside would have escaped, and that scene was not something that could be controlled by a few hundred or dozens of guards.
And if this prisoner's library is destroyed, Charlotte Lingling will definitely punish them, and they are all deeply afraid of Charlotte Lingling's punishment.
"Looks like they care about these books!" Brooke suddenly found that the guards had given up shooting at him, and were ready to put out the fire first, and suddenly had a plan: Although my mission is to come to Naruboto!, if it can have a greater impact, it should help Luffy and them, right?
Although Brooke didn't know that William had come to Cake Island for the time being, he felt that his mission had been accomplished, and he felt that he needed to make some movement to distract the enemy. While that would cause some problems for himself and Pedro, both of them are speedy and confident enough to escape.
"Huangquan Sword Qi!" Brooke used the ability of the Huangquan Fruit to release the cold qi from Huangquan in the form of sword qi through the Tibetan Sword, which instantly froze the two guards.
By the time Brooke intervened to stop the guards from putting out the fire, a huge book had already been burned by the flames, almost half of which had been destroyed. And he kept crying for help from the book: "It's hot, it's hot! Help!"
"Is there really someone locked up in a book? It's terrible!" Hearing Brooke's complaint, the guards couldn't help but despise Brooke: You are a skeleton that can talk and move, that is scary enough!
Even among the rarest creatures, Brooke may be in the top five. This is the only skeleton in the world that is still alive!
"It's so hot!" a gangster-like man suddenly rolled out of his book, rolled back and forth on the ground to extinguish the flames on his body, gasping for breath and said, "Saved." I'm almost going to burn to death!"
This man was imprisoned in the prisoner's library a long time ago for offending the aunt of the Four Emperors, Charlotte Lingling. Although he is a gangster, he is actually a wanted person with a bounty.
"It's so hot! I'm going to be burned to death!" Immediately after, two more gangster-looking men escaped from the books, apparently the gangster's companions from earlier.
"It's a big deal, the prisoners have escaped!" The guards panicked when they saw the prisoners in the books escaping one after another.
On the other side, Baron Dandan, who was still fighting with Pedro, heard the alarm go off again, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Although Pedro was at a disadvantage and injured against the Egg Baron, Pedro understood what was going on when he heard the alarm for the second time: "Looks like you're not feeling good on your side, do you want to help?"
In any case, Pedro will not let the Dandans out of his sight, although Pedro's strength is slightly lower than that of the Dandans, but it is also difficult for the Dandans to get rid of or defeat Pedro.
Otherwise, Baron Eggball and Pedro would not have been able to decide the winner after fighting for so long.
