"What shadow? And Brooke, you really don't seem to have a shadow, alas! Luffy exclaimed in surprise. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because of the dense fog all around, the lights on the ship were turned on, and Brooke didn't have a shadow shining under the lights at all!
"When you say that, it seems to be true."
Brooke also glanced down at his feet, and said dreamily: "My shadow has been taken away by Moonlight Moria many years ago, and a poor person like me, who has been robbed of his shadow, even bathed in the sun is a luxury, because without the shadow, we will be burned to ashes by the sun." ”
"So!" He raised his head, looked at Luffy and the others fixedly, and said, "Mr. Luffy, you must not move forward again!" Once Moria, even your shadow will be taken away! ”
"Hmm...," Luffy pursed his lips and rubbed his chin with his hand, as if in deep thought.
"I see!" Luffy clenched his right hand into the palm of his left hand, and with a look of sudden realization, "Brooke, the reason why you don't agree to join us is because of the shadow matter."
I've decided! I'm going to take down Moria and take your shadow back, and you'll agree to my invitation. ”
"Mr. Luffy... Wrong! Now is not the time to be moved, Mr. Luffy, have you listened carefully to me, the other party is Moonlight Moria, one of the Seven Martial Seas, you will not be his opponent, so although I am very touched that you can do this for me, I still don't want to, I don't want to put you in danger because of my affairs. ”
Moriah's strength, Brooke has experienced it firsthand, and he doesn't think Luffy and his party have the power to defeat him.
He turned to Jace and said, "And this gentleman, you don't have to move on, over the years, it's not like no one has come to crusade against Moria, but those people without exception, after getting on Moria's terrifying dhow, they haven't appeared again, so you better take Mr. Luffy and leave quickly." ”
Jace shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, I'm here for Moria, so I can't just go back without doing anything."
Moreover, I didn't come here unprepared, for Moria, I still studied it carefully, if it was before he was wiped out by the Hundred Beasts Kaido, maybe he would still have the strength to fight with me, but now..."
His meaning is self-evident, that is, he didn't take Moria in his eyes at all, and the fact is also true, Moria is this guy, most of the strength of his body is on the shadow fruit, when he was young and broke into the new world, he may have collected a lot of strong shadows, and his strength is not bad, but since he was defeated by the Hundred Beasts Kaido and the pirates were all wiped out, it would be good if he could have fifty percent of his strength left, otherwise he would not be as miserable as he is now, and he could only hide in the Triangle of Terror to accumulate strength.
"This?" Brooke didn't know what to say, was Jace arrogant? But looking at his confident appearance, it doesn't seem to be the case.
"Hey, Brooke, don't worry." Usopp patted Brooke on the shoulder (aren't you scared of him?). He whispered in his ear, "Jace is the number one horse boy under my great captain Usopp, the big man with a bounty of 1.6 billion Bailey, known as Jace the Lawless, and the admiral is not worth it, and a mere Seven Martial Seas is not a problem at all." ”
Brooke's jaw shifted in shock: "This? Are you sure?! ”
He turned his head to look at Jace, well, tall and thin, and quite handsome, but in terms of his small arms and legs, compared to Moria's huge size, he was really that strong?
Usopp raised his head proudly: "Believe me, that's right, even if Jace can't handle it, then as the captain of the ship, I will take action myself, and a little pirate like Moonlight Moria is completely out of the question." ”
"Usopp, you're so handsome!" Chopper looked at him adoringly, his eyes full of stars.
Unbeknownst to Brooke, Brooke was also suppressed by Usopp's boasting cowhide, and even Moria of the Seven Martial Seas was called a little pirate by him, so Mr. Usopp must be a big master on the side of the famous town!
Luffy said: "Then it's decided, let's go and defeat Moonlight Moriah and take back Brooke's shadow, and then Brooke will be my partner!" ”
"Our captain really wants to come out as soon as he wants, is he going to fight with a Seven Martial Sea so rashly, I really can't stand it." Sanji said helplessly.
Zoro next to him said: "It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he stands in the way, he will be cut with a knife!" ”
"Well, let's go get a few more bottles of Coke." Frank was equally prepared for the war.
This bunch of guys.... Nami put her hand on her forehead and said reluctantly: "Since you want to fight, then you have to give me some courage, but don't be beaten down by others." ”
"Well, there's one more thing." Nami's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Since he is a sea thief of the level of the Seven Martial Seas, he must have collected a lot of treasures." ”
Sure enough, he is a fan of money, and now this situation can be thought of on Moria's treasure.
Jace: "......" What the hell are these guys talking to themselves, Moriah is my target, okay, don't you just take care of yourself and come in!
Luffy raised his hand and pointed ahead: "Let's go, the goal is to defeat Moria and take back Brooke's shadow." ”
"And treasure!" Nami interjected, and under the temptation of money, she also became full of energy, "Little ones, snatch all Moria's treasures back for me!" ”
Forget it, let's let them make trouble, in addition to Moria, he also has a lot of minions under him, these people can be used to practice for Luffy and others, don't try to fight with all kinds of enemies, how can they grow, Jace thought.
"Hey, Luffy, you're going in the wrong direction, it's right to the right." Jace reminded.
Nami asked curiously, "Well, Brother Jace, even if you know where Moonlight Moriah is located, can you tell the way in the thick fog?" ”
"I don't know where Moriah is, I just know that they're in the Triangle of Terror, and the reason why I know exactly where they are in the fog is because I've turned on the Sight and Smell Domineering." He said.
"Domineering? Is that something, some kind of fruit ability? ”
Jace shook his head and said, "No, this kind of thing is not a fruit ability, but a special ability that may be developed when a person's strength reaches a certain stage....."
In this way, while directing Luffy and the others to advance, he popularized domineering knowledge to them.
When Luffy and the others were adventuring on the Sky Island before, they had already come into contact with enemies with domineering spirits, although the enemy called it the heart net, but after some science popularization by Jace, they also understood what kind of concept domineering was.
While everyone was talking, they had unconsciously arrived at the dread dhow.
