Luffy stepped forward, gently patted Brooke's white bone shoulder, and said comfortingly to him who suddenly fell into sadness:

"No need to cry, Brooke ......"

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"'That's what you've always wanted to see!'"

The slender jade bones slowly stuck to the ground, and the nameless tears were still trickling, from the empty eye hole, from the sad soul.

"Thank you...... Thank you! Mr. Luffy!! ”

What was once a fantasy will be confirmed.

What was once an eternal parting has also become a meeting that can be encountered!

At this moment, Brooke's long-pent-up emotions erupted uncontrollably.

With that boundless gratitude, the feeling of gratitude......

Everything turned into a strong friendship and was released with tears.

In the past, even if he had a slight illusion like this, he would be immediately suppressed by that negative heart!

Because he didn't dare!

He was scared, terrified!

If all this is just his delusion, then the hope he has will be the weapon that stabs him the most.

But now, these former conjectures have been confirmed in the mouths of those he believes in the most!

In the small garden of Brooke's heart, a sun that radiates a warm and bright light instantly rises into the sky of his heart.

Illuminate the world beyond the garden for him, the beauty after the good!

Luffy leaned over slightly, picked up Brooke, who was kneeling on the ground, and said:

"Aren't we, partners?"

"Besides, you can get such an ability, more, or is it your own reason!?"

"And ......"

“…………”

Luffy suddenly fell silent again, with a bad idea in his heart, but seeing Brooke's current appearance, he didn't dare to say it.

Probably not......

After all, in the original book, Brooke can also communicate with Huangquan and use the power in Huangquan.

Hopefully everything will go as he wants, well.

…….

......

Luffy and Brooke have an inexplicable conversation.

Hearing this, Zoro could only blink in confusion, looking at the two of them in harmony, unable to understand what they meant at all.

In the end, he turned his doubtful gaze to Luffy.

As if asking Luffy what all this meant.

Luffy, who got up, noticed the curious look from Zoro and nodded at him knowingly.

After a while, seeing that Brooke's mood had eased somewhat, Luffy spoke again and continued:

"Bang Yu can give people magical abilities."

"This ability generally has a lot to do with the mind of the person who uses it."

With that, Luffy looked at Brooke, who had slowly stood up, and continued:

"Brooke wants to become stronger, so let Bangyu create the Four Holy Beasts for him......"

"Well, Brooke's strong feelings of longing for his former partner ......"

"If there is no accident, the ability that Honyu gave Brooke should be ......"

"The ability to connect Huangquan with reality!"

“………………”

As if he couldn't believe what Luffy said, Zoro's hands began to tremble slightly.

“…… Miscellaneous...... What do you mean!? ”

But thinking of Luffy's explanation, Zoro, who guessed a hint of possibility, immediately inquired in order to be more detailed...... Answer.

"Hey......

Luffy suddenly showed a hint of a smile, looked at Zoro who was a little excited, and continued:

"That's what I just said!"

"Perhaps, Brooke has mastered the way to connect with the world of Yellow Springs from the present world we live in."

"Wait! …… And so on and so forth!! ”

"Huang ...... Death! Does that really exist!? ”

Before Luffy could finish his words, Zoro immediately became excited, showing an expression on his worldview that had collapsed, and looked at Luffy and Brooke in shock.

What was even more incomprehensible to him, Brooke actually looked like he agreed, stood aside, and did not say a word of objection.

This huge impact completely pierced Zoro's brain!

also let some thoughts come to his heart.

Is that......

Thoughts he never dared to imagine!!

"Exists!"

Luffy saw Zoro like this and knew that he also figured out what all this meant.

Gave Sauron another shot in the arm and said:

"Brooke's fruit ability allowed him to turn back and resurrect on the way to Yellow Springs."

"And the memory is unusually clear to him."

"In other words, after death, people can enter the Yellow Spring!"

"And Brooke's companions have left this world a long time ago......"

"But Brooke can still feel their breath......"

"So, Zoro !!"

"Everything! It's all possible!! ”

Luffy stared at Zoro's stunned eyes with his big shining eyes.

After a long time, Sauron slowly withdrew his surprise and muttered softly.

"Yes...... Yes......"

At his waist, the white phantom trembled slightly, and he didn't know whether he was happy or crying.

Sauron, however, gently clasped his palm between his eyebrows and raised his head slightly.

It seemed that he wanted to stop it, but he couldn't stop it, and the tears that slowly slid down his cheeks.

The emotion of longing, just like Brooke just now, exploded in an instant.

There are some things that when there is no hope, people will become stronger.

And when this hope does come, it is when people are most vulnerable.

Seeing that the two of them were like this one by one, Luffy could only show a helpless look.

It was only after a moment that Zoro slammed his palm across his face.

Emotions seem to have been vented.

On the cheeks, there were only two shallow tear stains, but there was no longer a trace of cowardice in the eyes.

However, from the depths of Zoro's eyes, that familiar and beautiful figure would not dissipate no matter what.

Zoro, who has always been strong, doesn't want others to see his sad state at all.

Even Luffy and his buddies can't.

In a short period of time, the emotions in my heart were pent up and refused to be released.

Luffy didn't bother with Zoro either, and let him slowly calm down on his own.

Seeing that the atmosphere eased again, Luffy spoke:

"Brooke, do you know why Sanji was like that just now......

"I just felt an extremely powerful aura at that connection with another dimension!"

“……………………”

Luffy's words once again made Brooke fall into deep thought.

After a while, he shook his head gently, and also with a hint of doubt, replied to Luffy:

"I'm also very confused about Mr. Sanji's affairs......"

"I can assure you that it's not my power!"

"I don't know why, since I summoned the Four Holy Beasts, my degree of control over the different time and space has suddenly increased a lot!"

"However, no matter how much spiritual power I use, I still can't open the connecting channel between the two worlds and let me see the world beyond the rift."

"And ......"

"Mr. Sanji's matter, I always feel that the other party has no malicious ......"

After saying that, Brooke immediately raised his head, looked at Luffy with dark eyes, and said:

"Mr. Luffy, judging from the feedback given to me by the Four Holy Beasts, it seems that the powerful existence you mentioned is not our enemy."

"It's a pity that my current ability is still too small to really help Mr. Luffy."
