Chapter 240: Uncle
"Madara?"
Luffy was stunned for a moment and began to ponder.
He seems to have heard the name somewhere!
Zoro was completely stunned when he heard Brooke's words, and a shuddering figure appeared in his heart, and he said secretly: "It can't be him, right!?" ”
"That's really a man with a peerless demeanor as dazzling as the sun!"
Brooke's tone was full of amazement, and after finishing speaking, he glanced at the pensive Luffy and the stunned Zoro, as if he remembered something, and continued: "He also has a black cat that can talk!" ”
"It's really him!"
Zoro frowned, and he was almost sure that the man Brooke was talking about was the legendary number one demon in the world.
"Ahh I remember. ”
Luffy interrupted Zoro's thinking and said excitedly, "Zoro, the uncle we met in a cool coat that day, he was carrying a black cat. ”
"That's exactly what happened!"
Brooke was not surprised to see that Luffy and Zoro knew Madara, and secretly wondered about Madara's intentions.
Could it be that Madara wants to help the straw hat kid in front of him?
If that's the case, why not just make it clear to yourself?
Brooke couldn't find a perfect answer no matter how much he thought about it, and he always felt like there was something he didn't know.
Of course, Brooke couldn't have imagined that Madara sent him to Straw Hat Luffy only because of the clearing of the field before the battle.
"Uncle?"
Zoro was dumbfounded, really not sure if the person Luffy was talking about was Madara.
Where did Luffy tell that the other party's age was an uncle?
"That's right! That's the uncle! ”
Luffy nodded affirmatively, and in order to show that he was absolutely not mistaken, he said to Zoro again: "Last time you told me, that uncle is very famous, belongs to the legendary character, and the bounty twenty years ago was '500 million berry', after so many years, of course he is an uncle!" ”
“……”
Zoro didn't contradict Luffy, and he was stunned again.
Luffy is absolutely right!
The other party became famous twenty years ago, and his current age must be at least middle-aged.
In this way, the other party is indeed an uncle!
But the other party looks too young!
Zoro secretly wondered, he hadn't really paid attention to it before, but now that he thought about it, he realized that Madara's appearance was very deceptive, and he looked like a young man who was not much older than him, and he was simply too young.
"Five hundred million berry?"
Usopp's eyes were about to pop out when he heard Luffy and Zoro's words, and he looked completely frightened, and said in a trembling voice, "You guys actually know such a terrifying character!" ”
The figure with a bounty of 500 million berry is completely unthinkable for Usopp.
The bounty is only 16 million Berry's pirate 'Chloe', which has already made him suffer, and if it weren't for the help of Luffy and Zoro, he would not be Chloe's opponent at all.
"Is 500 million berry a lot?"
Luffy didn't feel much about money, seemed to remember something, and said, "But that uncle is really strong, I remember that he also has a very powerful knife, what's it called?" After saying that, he pondered again and began to think about the name of the knife.
"Yama Sword!"
Sauron's tone was low, he never forgot the knife called Yama for the rest of his life.
"Is that the name? I think it was called the Demon Knife. ”
Luffy glanced at Zoro uncertainly, "You can't be mistaken, right?" ”
"I misremember your size!"
Zoro glared at Luffy angrily, "The demon is talking about that man!" His nickname is 'The World's No. 1 Demon'! ”
"Goo-toot!"
Usopp swallowed and foamed, the fear on his face became stronger, and a chill arose in his heart.
What a horrible thing this has to do to be called the world's number one demon!
"It turns out that his bounty is 500 million berry! It's a big surprise indeed. But I really can't see that he will have such a chilling title as the world's number one demon! ”
After listening to Luffy's brief conversation with Zoro, Brooke looked thoughtful.
Brooke has been alone in the Devil's Triangle for decades, and except for the time when Moria took away his shadow, he was usually completely isolated from the world.
Without the slightest source, he naturally wouldn't know about Madara.
"Huh?"
When Zoro heard Brooke's words, he instantly pulled out the katana at his waist, pointed at Brooke and said solemnly, "Who are you?" ”
"Zoro, what are you doing? He's Brooke! ”
Luffy looked at Zoro in surprise, not understanding why he suddenly drew his sword.
"You said you knew that man, but you didn't know any information about him, a man worth 500 million, I think there should be very few people who have heard of it!"
Zoro ignored Luffy's surprise and looked at Brooke with a solemn expression.
From the first time he met Brooke, he felt that this guy was mysterious and not a simple person.
"Yo ho ho ...... That's a long story. ”
Brooke didn't care at all about Zoro's doubts, instead let out a distinctive laugh.
"Huh?"
Just as Zoro was waiting to listen to Brooke's explanation, he saw Brooke say to Luffy on the side: "Captain Walkie, I'm a little hungry, can you eat something first?" ”
"I'll eat you! Tell me quickly! ”
Sauron's forehead fluttered, and he flatly rejected Brooke's request.
"Good! It just so happened that I was hungry too. ”
Luffy hit it off with Brooke's proposal, ignoring Zoro's angry eyes, Usopp's face collapsed, and he was about to take Brooke to the restaurant for dinner, when he heard a loud 'bang' in the next second.
A figure descended from the sky and landed on the deck beside Luffy.
The sudden appearance made everyone on the deck subconsciously raise their heads and look at the sky.
Then, all of them were stunned!
Dozens of figures appeared in mid-air, crackling and falling onto the deck, and in an instant, the crowd almost covered the entire deck of the pirate ship.
Among them, Luffy had the most people next to him, and his whole person was crushed by a dozen people who fell from the sky.
"Don't squeeze!"
"Who stepped on Lao Tzu's feet!"
"Oh, my waist!"
"Let me go, I'm almost out of breath!"
The Golden Merry, which originally had only four people, had nearly a hundred more people in an instant.
A crowd of people huddled together like stacks of arhats, and the deck was filled with all kinds of noisy sounds, like a vegetable market.
The Straw Hats were completely stunned and couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Enemy attack?"
Vigilant, Zoro kicked away a few figures in his way, leaned his back against the boats, and scanned the surrounding sea with a pair of eyes, but found not a single boat.
Zoro was covered in a cold sweat for a moment, and things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
These people are like Brooke who suddenly appeared, all of them are nowhere to be found.
"What the hell is going on!"
Usopp grabbed his head and looked at the boat full of people with a broken expression.
A talking skeleton is strange enough, why is there suddenly another group of unknown strangers.
Before Usopp could calm down, something happened that made him even more devastated!
"Can you marry me?"
A woman taller than many men, with braided hair, two katana swords crossed diagonally across her back, and a pair of thick lips stood in front of Usopp, her round eyes staring at him intently.
"What did you say?"
Usopp thought that something was wrong with his ears, and looked blankly at the unknown lady in front of him.
"I like you, marry me!"
“……”
Usopp stumbled and said, "No, no! ”
"Oh!"
The stout woman didn't say much, turned and left, coming to Sauron's side.
Before he could speak, he heard a shout in the next second, "What do you bastards want to do on my ship!" ”
Luffy, who overturned the crowd, stood on the deck, looking at the crowd of nearly 100 people around him.
"Who is this guy?"
"I don't know!"
"He said this was his ship, and that was the captain of this ship!"
"It seems to be very arrogant!"
"The pirate flag I haven't seen before, it seems that he is also a pirate like us!"
"Pirates? No wonder it's so arrogant! ”
"Didn't the benefactor say send us to a place? Is this the place? ”
"It should be!"
"It looks great here!"
"Yes! What a beautiful sky! ”
"Sunshine, this is sunshine! I've been waiting for years, the sun I haven't seen for a long time! ”
"We're finally out of that terrifying island, and we're bidding farewell to the dark life!"
"All thanks to the benefactor!"
"yes!"
"That's a reincarnation god as bright as the sun!"
"yes!"
"I don't know if we have a chance to repay him!"
The crowd around them whispered to each other, completely ignoring Luffy, and instead of attacking as Zoro thought, they just like Brooke who had just boarded the ship, wandering around as if no one else was in the eyes of the Straw Hats who were annoyed, confused, or broken.
At this time, the Straw Hats don't have to worry about finding navigators.
Almost all of the nearly 100 people who fell from the sky were pirates, and they were all senior pirates who had mixed in the first half of the great route, and there were various types, although their business ability was not ranked at all in the great route, but they were barely considered talents in the East China Sea.
As for the origin of these talents, it has to start from the moment Madara sent Brooke away and left the ghost ship with the cat fairy and the Yama knife.
