Chapter 559: Ghosts

"Ah, why can't you see in the mirror"

Chopper and Usopp hugged Brooke tightly, and looked up to see Nami take out the mirror she was carrying, and there were only two of them, and she didn't see Brooke in the middle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Chopper and Usopp, two already timid guys, jumped up in fright and hurriedly hid behind their chairs.

Usopp, who was hiding behind a chair, couldn't help but look at the ground, "Look, he doesn't even have a shadow."

Nami, who was holding the mirror, didn't say a word, and immediately hid behind Lin Tian, Zoro quickly pulled out his hand and wrote Daoyi, Frankie and Sanji all stood up, ready to do it at any time, and even Robin was ready to fight.

I just thought that Brooke had become like this because of the Devil Fruit, but when I found out that Brooke couldn't see it in the mirror.

The words that everyone had already believed in their minds were overturned in an instant, how could it be that if it was a Devil Fruit, it couldn't even be seen in the mirror, and there was no shadow.

Only goblins have these characteristics, so there's a good chance that Brooke in front of him is a goblin, and everything he said earlier is wrong.

In the face of everyone's surprise, Brooke seemed to be very flat, and he didn't hurry to drink the coffee in his hand, after all, he had characteristics that anyone would think of as a monster.

But when Brooke's eyes swept and saw Lin Tian, who was directly opposite him, eating the last octopus foot in the bowl very leisurely.

Brooke was shocked, "How is it possible, aren't you afraid of me at all?" I'm a man who has no shadow, but still a skeleton."

"Hey, yes, why don't you feel scared at all, Lin Tian?" Hearing Brooke's reminder, Nami raised her head and looked at Lin Tian and asked suspiciously.

Everyone's eyes also moved Lin Tian's body involuntarily, and he put down the knife and fork in his hand very calmly, Lin Tian raised his head and said: "There is no shadow and it doesn't mean that the other party is a monster."

Usopp was the first to disagree, holding the cross in his hand and said nervously: "How is it possible, Lin Tian, only monsters have no shadows, if they are really human, how can there be no shadows."

Looking back at Usopp, Lin Tian asked rhetorically: "If there is no shadow, it is a monster, so what kind of guy is this guy who only has skeletons left?"

"This..."Usopp was speechless, the skeleton in front of him was used to being able to speak, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

Da... Gently retracting the words in his hand, Zoro said lightly: "Indeed, since even skeletons can talk and jump, it is not surprising that there is no shadow."

After Lin Tian said this, the panic in everyone's hearts suddenly decreased a lot, and it was indeed much better to have no shadow than a skeleton that could speak.

At this moment, Lin Tian continued: "However, I guess your shadow should have been taken away by some guy to become like this."

Hearing this, Brooke's face immediately showed panic, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and a trace of memory appeared on his face.

"I wandered in this devil's sea for decades, not knowing what to do, until a few years ago, my shadow was taken away by that guy."

"The shadow has been taken away? Is this true? Sanji asked in disbelief.

Nodding, Brooke said, "It's true, once the shadow is taken away, it can't touch the sun, and can only drift in this dark sea."

Robin asked curiously, "What would happen if you were exposed to the sun?"

"If I get the sun, my body will disappear," Brooke said in an extremely eerie tone.

"I once saw a man who had been taken away from his shadow, and when he was exposed to the sun, his whole body seemed to be burned, and then his skin turned to ashes, and then blood, and bones, and then he was whole person."

"Ah, it's scary"

Listening to what Brooke said, Usopp and Chopper screamed in fright, and then hugged each other tightly, their whole bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"It seems that that guy really got here, it's really disgusting", Lin Tian muttered in a tone that only he could hear.

"Shadows are formed when light hits the human body, just as I have no shadow under the light, and the light emitted by the mirror and the camera cannot shoot me, that is, I am a person who is rejected by the light and has lost all my partners."

After being silent for a while, Sanji lowered his head and sighed, "Your life is really a mess."

Kindness!

Everyone on the side nodded in agreement.

Waving his hands, Brooke laughed excitedly, "However, I still survived very tenaciously, a pile of white bones that stubbornly lived, please take care of me."

In the seemingly excited words, Lin Tian could feel the sadness in his heart, all his partners died in front of him one by one, but he survived from Huangquan alone.

In the next few decades, I could only stand alone on the ship with the broken rudder, and in this dark sea, I was lonely and lonely for decades.

Feeling the passage of time, and the traces left by his partners dissipating little by little in the long river of time, no one can understand how painful Brooke's heart is, and he seems to be excited and does not want to express his sad side in front of others.

That's why, when Luffy asks him to join, Brooke doesn't hesitate to agree, because he really needs a partner.

"Unfortunately, I didn't hesitate to agree to join you, but please blame me for not being able to leave with you", Brooke took off his hat and apologized to everyone sincerely.

Luffy immediately shouted in confusion, "Why".

Brooke explained slowly: "My shadow has been taken away by someone else, and now it is all protected by this demon sea, if I leave, it is only a matter of time before I turn to ashes and disappear, I must reclaim my shadow."

"We can help you reclaim the shadows"

Without thinking about it, Luffy replied without the slightest hesitation, because Luffy had already decided in his heart that he had to make Brooke their partner.

Seeing that Luffy actually helped him find a shadow for the sake of someone he had met for less than half an hour, Brooke's heart was full of emotion.

But Brooke refused: "No, that's a horrible guy, I'm not even sure about him."

Hearing this, Nami laughed and introduced to Brooke, "By the way, Brooke, you don't know our names yet, don't worry, we're very strong."

Pull Luffy on the side: "This is our captain Luffy, and the bounty is 300 million Bailey."

"Three hundred million!" Brooke was frightened in an instant, 300 million is a terrifying number, and Luffy in front of him is actually a pirate with a bounty of 300 million.

"Also, Roronoa Zoro, a bounty of 120 million Bailey"

"Nico Robin, 100 million Baileys on the bounty"

"Sniper King Usopp, 98 Million Bailey"

"Sanji, 77 million Baileys are on offer"

"Frankie, 44 million Baileys on offer"

"I'm Nami, and Doctor Chopper, and the bounty is sixteen million Bailey, fifty Bailey"

Hearing this, Brooke's heart was even more shocked, he didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary pirate ship was actually full of high-value bounty criminals, what kind of pirate ship did he arrive.

Suddenly, when Nami was about to introduce the last Lin Tian, Lin Tian opened his mouth and stopped Nami's words.

"It's coming, someone is already coming"

Cha...

Without thinking too much, Lin Tian thought about it, there was a slight sound, and Zoro had already pulled out the word Hedao slightly, and his whole body was full of vigilance.

Sanji and Frankie moved a few steps to both sides, and the three of them and Lin Tian perfectly formed a four-sided defensive formation, their eyes quickly and vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

Just when everyone was alert, Luffy raised his fist, looked around, and shouted unconcernedly.

"Who's it, come out quickly and hand over Brooke's shadow, or I'm going to beat you up and snatch the shadow back."

Sanji's gaze swept towards Luffy, and he scolded helplessly, "Stupid, what a guy who can't think about things."

"Ahhh

There was a very thin choking sound that was clearly heard by everyone, and I saw Nami looking up blankly, wanting to scream in her mouth, but she was so frightened by the scene in front of her that she couldn't even make a sound.

Following Nami's eyes, I saw a white ghost on the ceiling of the kitchen, slowly passing through the plank, revealing only half of its body in front of everyone.

"Phantom Ghost"

Boom! With three vibrations in a row, Chopper, Usopp and Brooke were frightened by the strange ghost that appeared on the ground, their whole bodies trembling uncontrollably, and their eyes were full of fear.

Although the rest of the people sat on the ground without being frightened, the situation was not much better than that of the three Usopps, their foreheads were filled with cold sweat, and their bodies couldn't help but jump tight, ready to shoot at any time.

Although I had been talking about ghosts and Skeleton Brook who could talk, this was Devil Fruit power after all.

What I saw in front of me now was a real ghost, with a seeping laugh coming out of its mouth, and I could see the smile on it, easily passing through the plank, everything but a ghost.

"The Evil Spirits Scattered"

"It's scary, is it a monster?"

This ghost seemed to have spirituality, and when it saw everyone's frightened expressions, it showed excitement on its face, but it was when it saw Lin Tianzheng smiling and looking at him.

The smile on the ghost's face immediately disappeared, replaced by a deep fear, like a fear that went deep into the soul.

"Ahh

A scream came out of his mouth, and he quickly disappeared in front of everyone at a terrifying speed.

However, at the moment when the ghost dissipated, the space around the ceiling twisted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he silently let go of his right hand under the table.

Lin Tian thought in his heart: "Is he so terrible? When I saw myself, I ran so fast, I felt like I was a ghost."

From the time the ghost appeared to the time it screamed and left, it was only a matter of seconds, and the crowd left before they could react to what was happening.

Bang...

Suddenly, the calm hull trembled violently, the cutlery on the table made a loud crash, and the Sonny touched something. (To be continued.) )
