Chapter Ninety-Eight: Moonlight Moria

"Young man, do you want to get on my boat?"

This sentence is basically a common sentence in all worlds.

The most representative, you can exchange the boat for various phrases. For example, "Stop talking nonsense, get in my car." "Are you coming to my team?" And "Do you want to be my wings?" "Wait, whatever.

If it's a team leader who is not good at words, most of them will say, "Do you want to go to me?"

However, it is very easy to misunderstand such words.

For Brooke, who is full of skeletons, Sean does not discriminate against him, but is very good to his senses.

Maybe it's a lot of time spent in an environment full of bones, or maybe Sean wants Brooke's body.

Don't distort the meaning of this sentence, wanting a body that was originally a man's body is not a problem with Sean's orientation, but wanting to study things about rebirth through Brooke's body and a deeper soul.

He has to be ready.

One day, all kinds of soul balls in his body will leave his inner space.

In the face of a group with the ability to think independently, Sean will not keep them in his own internal space, especially Trixi, who is proficient in various manipulations in the internal space, and when Sean is a little older, if he can still live well by then, he will always get married and have children.

Think about it, when you are working hard to create the next generation, there is always a look in your body watching all your activities.

Maybe more than one look.

Tracy, who can call up the screen to watch the outside world, can of course invite other dango to watch the live Spring Palace picture together.

Sean is not watched by others, but he is more and more interested in fighting, not to mention, he has gained a lot from the group, and it is time to do something for them.

And the Brooke in front of him is a case of a soul leaning over the original body after death, especially the case where the body is still turned into a white bone and can still reproduce the world alive.

This can't help but make Sean feel excited, in addition to completing the trials of this world, he can further learn the details of rebirth, which has to be said to be a great thing.

Faced with Sean's invitation, Brooke did not agree.

It's not that he doesn't give Sean face, he has his own concerns.

"I'm sorry."

Brooke's answer already explained his attitude, and Sean could understand that not everyone could immediately accept a stranger's invitation.

According to Sean's idea, this area full of Piao is suitable for skeletons like Brooke, that is, this skeleton has the explosive head of a hippie and likes to play the guitar and sing loudly.

According to Sean's understanding of the undead, none of these guys like to be lively.

"Can you tell me why?"

"I can't leave this area, Sean, you'd better get out of here."

Graceful and euphemistic, dressed like a gentleman, if it weren't for being knocked away for asking to see Asuna's panties, Sean felt that he and Brooke had a lot in common.

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

The Alexander has a new goal, they want to save the Piao who are living in "dire straits".

Piao here also includes zombies like Brooke. The way to save them is to go to an island called Apiao Island. (Ah Piao Island refers to the ghost island, and for fear of being harmonized, Ah Piao is used instead.) Parenthesis laughs. ๏ผ‰

After going to Piao Island, he also has to find a guy named Moonlight Moria, who made Brooke and many others become Piao.

This is curious.

I have to say that this world is really full of all kinds of magical places.

It's not just a Devil Fruit, cursed by the sea, but something that can make an ordinary person a strong man.

There are also many strange creatures, such as sea kings, extinct dinosaurs on the blue star in the previous life, and humans with three elbows, etc.

Maybe, this so-called Moonlight Moria is also a devil fruit powerhouse, and his ability, to put it mildly, is actually very similar to Sean's ability.

Playing with the soul, sucking the soul, pumping the soul.

Although, Sean's abilities are mostly used in combat, Brooke can be seen, and he heard about his experience from him, and because he was taken by Moria's shadow, he was unable to go to the outside world.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

Even Brooke, who ate the fruit of the Yellow Spring, would be wiped out on the spot if he was exposed to the sun after being taken by Moonlight Moria's shadow.

Therefore, Brooke's reason for rejecting Sean's request is very far-fetched.

As a man, taking the initiative is what it should be.

Combined with Sean's interest in Moonlight Moria's unique technique, it would be great if Brooke's problems could be resolved through negotiations, there is no GWENT card or a harmonious game similar to GWENT, which can replace the two sides of the dispute with a peaceful GWENT card instead of the brutal fight and kill.

Knowing the direction, you don't need Sean to show you the way.

As the chief navigator aboard the Alexander, Sanlang will complete Sean's mission perfectly.

Even if all the members, including him, didn't really want to stay in this sea area for more, even if they knew that those flying in the sky were not a threat to them, but in such an environment, they would still be involuntarily afraid.

Asuna, in particular, if there is one thing that the whole ship has the worst impression of Brooke, it must be her.

A gentleman is such a creature that is easily misunderstood by others, especially women.

After all, a gentleman's object of affection cannot be a man, and a woman cannot join the group of gentlemen.

Therefore, many gentlemen have been discredited by some people with ulterior motives and are not understood by the world.

For example, idiots, qiangjian criminals, and so on.

A true gentleman will not do anything to hurt women, they will tolerate women and love women.

Most of them will look at women with an appreciative eye, rather than a lustful look, otherwise, it will be very ungentlemanly.

Because, the group of gentlemen is a small part, and in addition there are many guys who have ruined the reputation of the group of gentlemen.

Therefore, the reason why Asuna is disgusted with Brooke, Sean understands.

When he negotiates with Moonlight Moria so that Brooke can get on his ship and go to the outside world, when the time comes, after a period of getting along, Sean believes that Asuna will definitely have a better opinion of Brooke.

As for whether bringing a skeleton on board will affect the atmosphere of the whole ship.

Sean can only say that life will never go as planned, be patient, adapt, and everything will be fine.

What is Ah Piao, as long as you treat him as a friend, you won't be afraid of him anymore.

However, in this case, Sean does not intend to say it now.

Except for Origami, Bacon, and Asuna, who would stay on the Alexandria to watch the ship, the rest of them had to land with them on the island of Drift.

Even if it was the rest, it was only three people.

Three waves, iron heads and themselves.

The disadvantage of insufficient manpower will always be manifested again at such a juncture.

After leaving enough people to watch the ship, there are too few people who can use it.

However, with Brooke on board, Origami doesn't have to force herself to learn music that she doesn't really love.

Perhaps, it would also be a good choice to train Origami to become a ship doctor, and Sean felt that if Brooke agreed to get on the ship, Origami would be able to learn something new, instead of pestering himself to learn swords all day.

The purpose of bringing the three waves with them is not to rely on the superiority of numbers, to threaten Moria to return Brooke's shadow to him.

This practice is just in case, and it can also train them three times, training is training, and without actual combat, no matter how good the training results are, it is just talk on paper.

This sea full of Ah Piao is not very large, and with the speed of the Alexander, it did not take long to arrive.

What they didn't know was that some guy who refused to get on the boat was secretly following them.

Worried, yes.

After all, it was someone he had just met, and after hearing what happened to him, he sailed away to find the culprit who had taken away his shadow.

Although he was knocked away by Asuna, he was in a coma for a while.

With his familiarity with the sea, Brooke followed.

Gentleman, he won't cause trouble to others, he must organize Sean and his party.

Moonlight Moria's strength is not something that Sean and they can face.

Brooke, a gentleman man, at this moment, is determined to stop Sean.

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

It has to be said that with a clear destination, this is the first time that Sanlang has shown his true skills on a great route, despite the changeable weather and wonderfully changing currents.

Piao Island, although it is an island, is actually a huge ship.

It is surrounded by a wall-like thing.

If you want to get in, you have to go through the city gate.

The Alexander, without any hindrance, entered the island.

Sean felt that this was the gathering place of Ah Piao that he felt, and a very large number of Ah Piao gathered here.

According to Brooke, most of the Piao were created by Moonlight Moria by seizing the shadows of others, and with such a huge amount, Sean really couldn't figure out how many years this Moonlight Moriah had been operating in this sea area to create so many Piao.

Even if it's worry, or curiosity.

The purpose of Sean's trip is to have a conversation with Moria.

In addition to retrieving Brooke's shadow, it is also important to know how Moriah operates.

Although he was in a hurry, Sean originally wanted to ask Brooke if Moonlight Moriah was a Devil Fruit powerhouse, and if so, Sean's harvest from this trip would be greatly halved, which was not a good thing. It's a pity that Asuna, who misunderstands the gentleman, sends Brooke flying. Sean didn't wait for Brooke to return, and left in a hurry.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

After the boat stopped, Sean disembarked with Sanlang and Iron Head, and instructed Origami to leave the boat if they encountered unsolvable dangers, without waiting for Sean and them to return.

The ship of the incapable is good.

There is no need to worry about the danger of falling into the sea, as long as the Alexander is not very far away, Sean has the ability to swim back.

After giving the instructions, Sean took the lead and walked towards this island full of Ah Piao atmosphere.

He was followed by two crew members with their legs swinging.

"Ship...... Look, I feel like something is staring at us. โ€

Sanlang really can't stand it.

It's like letting a battlefield general fight with the enemy and kill each other, that's not to say anything, it's a habitual thing.

But if a general is asked to do needlework, it will be a difficult thing to do.

Sanlang felt like this, and he felt that his ability to look at the boat was not bad.

"Keep up!"

Sean looked at the faint castle in the distance, and he could certainly feel the presence of many Piao underground along the way.

It's normal for Sanlang and Tietou to feel scared, but most of this fear is caused by being scared of themselves.

Isn't there a saying that Ah Piao is not scary, but scary and scared to death.

This is the psychological factor at work.

Sean believes in the three waves of them, which is also the path that the strong must take, to face their hearts and face what they are afraid of.

Just like Sean himself, he is not afraid of death to the extreme.

But what's the use of being afraid, if you don't face it, can you still affect the whole world through your fearful emotions to change the status quo you are worried about? That's something that only myths and stories can do.

Ancient vines, old trees, bats, and the land that exudes the smell of rancidity.

Compared to the barren land, the environment here is much better.

Sean also felt that it would be happier if he had such a boat. However, if you want to recruit a crew, except for Ah Piao, Sean can't think of any other normal person who would want to board such a ship.

After a short time, through the forest full of ancient vines, the three of Sean came to the gate of the castle.

As if he had known that Sean was coming, the door opened early.

Standing at the door, the castle steward, bowed and welcomed Sean's arrival.

"Welcome, Mr. Black Bat."

The butler said.

This made Sean very curious.

"You know me?"

This is not the East China Sea, and Sean feels that no matter how much the Warring States of the Buddha is favoritism, his reputation should not spread so far away.

After all, the great shipping routes and the new world are not strictly managed by the navy like the four seas, and powerful guys run to these two places, even if the navy wants to manage it, not only manpower, but also combat effectiveness, which restricts the actions of the navy.

"Of course, Lord Moriah ordered me to bring Mr. Black Bat up, and Lord Moriah arranged a reception banquet, which Mr. Black Bat will like."

made a gesture of please, Sean nodded and agreed, after all, people had already made a low gesture, and they also held a banquet to entertain him, an uninvited guest, which could be regarded as full of sincerity.

"Lead the way."

Following behind the butler, Sean whispered to Sanlang that they should behave magnificently, to behave like the Alexander.

The demeanor of the Alexander, for this, the three waves and the iron head do not understand.

I had to puff out my chest, at least not so scared.

Sean looked at the performance of the three waves and the iron head, nodded in satisfaction, and waved for them to follow.

And he and the butler stood shoulder to shoulder and talked.

Seeing Sean come forward, the butler took a half-step back in amusement.

This approach made Sean feel very satisfied.

This can't help but remind Sean of his former butler, Chrystian, and he doesn't know what his trial is, and whether he can see him again.

Sean asked, "Is Moonlight Moriah his real name?" โ€

I really can't think of what to ask, this castle, under Sean's perception, can't keep any secrets.

The only thing that interests Sean is Moria herself, and the act of being able to turn a ship into an island is very interesting.

If one day the Alexander also becomes an island, then sailing on the sea can still be called sailing?

It's like traveling on a bicycle, and the contrast between traveling in a luxury car has its own style.

"Yes, that's the name of Lord Moria."

The butler replied truthfully that this is what every good butler does, at the very least, to solve the guest's problems.

"Oh, that's fine. Don't call me Mr. Black Bat, call me Sean. โ€

"No problem, Mr. Black Bat."

Sean: "0.0~"

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

The castle is quite large, after all, this Drifting Island, or Drifting Ship, is completely the land of Moria.

As long as he has enough money and manpower, it is not impossible to turn Drift Island into a gold-plated ship.

When they arrived at the so-called room for entertaining guests, the housekeeper intimately opened the door for the three Seans, and then stood aside and waited for the three Sean to enter.

It seems that he is not the only butler of this castle.

If it weren't for the fact that he never had more than two hundred Baileys on him, Sean would have wanted to pay for his attentive service.

It's not that Sean is stingy, and tipping people is only two hundred Bailey, which will only indirectly slap himself in the face.

Since you live on the sea, you can live well with only two hundred in cash.

Why?

Of course, this is the money to buy a newspaper in the pocket of the news bird, as long as there is a news bird, and there are two hundred Baileys on it, even if you are shipwrecked, you can look at a log and live on the sea for a long time.

Entering the hall, Sean saw it again.

A guy who is six or seven meters tall, six or seven meters wide at the waist, and looks very strange, is sitting in the main seat waiting for Sean's arrival.

I have to say that the human race in this world is really rich, and the human beings who seem to be normal-looking are often weaker.

I don't know if this is because of the consciousness of the world, but if God gives you a better face, it will let you survive as a weakling.

"Welcome to my castle, Black Bat."
