Brooke quickly waved his hand to explain.

"Ah, no, no, I've never heard of it before."

Nami was relieved to hear Brook's reply.

Immediately afterwards, Sanji stubbed out his cigarette and revealed a sinister smile.

"Could it be Creek? That bastard is actually your friend?!"

Upon hearing this, Brooke jumped up and down in a panic.

"Who is Creek? I have absolutely no recollection of him!"

They had just finished speaking when Luffy, after thinking for a long time, exclaimed in surprise, pointing at Brook and saying:

"Could it be that guy in the smoke? I didn't expect you to be friends with the Navy?!"

Upon hearing this, Brooke shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum.

"How could I possibly have friends in the Navy? You're overthinking it."

As he spoke, Brooke, fearing they might ask about people he didn't know at all, simply confessed the truth, sighing as he said:

"Actually, my partner is not human."

Upon hearing this, Nami and Usopp immediately hugged each other, a hint of red appearing in their eyes.

Chopper even took out the cross.

"So, you really are a vampire?"

As he spoke, Usopp turned deathly pale with fright.

"Dracula, hiding on a dark island, waiting for his chance to suck human blood, how terrifying!"

Upon hearing this, Brooke got goosebumps, but still mustered up the courage to retort:

"Of course not!"

"Um, actually, it's a whale."

Upon hearing this, the Straw Hat crew breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, Brooke turned his head and looked up at the sky.

He said in a sad tone:

"When we were in the East China Sea, we braved the wind and waves and carried it all the way to the Great Sea Route."

"But for some reason, we had to leave it somewhere."

"We swear that we will definitely go back to find him."

"But many years later, we were completely wiped out on the Grand Line."

As he spoke, Brooke raised his hands as if he were sensing something.

The next moment, tears welled up in Brooke's eyes.

"I really want to see it again, our partner, Laboon..."

Upon hearing Laboon's name, the Straw Hat crew's eyes widened in surprise.

Luffy opened his mouth and looked at Brook, as memories slowly crept into his mind.

“Labu…”

"So, you're Raab's partners! That's wonderful! We've said we'd go back to see Raab!"

Upon hearing this, Nami, Sanji, and the others all burst out laughing.

Usopp even put away all the garlic and crosses he was wearing.

"I never imagined that Raab's partner would be you! This is wonderful!"

Brook was stunned for a moment upon hearing what the Straw Hat crew said.

"You mean, Raab, he's really still waiting for us?!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy burst out laughing, giving an affirmative answer.

"Ah, that guy Laboon has grown so big now. He keeps banging his head against the Red Line, just waiting for you to come back and get him."

Upon hearing this, Brooke opened his mouth wide, his throat trembled, and he immediately knelt down on the ground.

Tears streamed down my nose.

"Labu, I'm sorry..."

Chapter 456 Brook's Lament, the Rumbar Pirates and Laboon

As he spoke, Brooke burst into tears without any restraint.

Seeing Brooke in this state, Franky immediately became puzzled.

"Hey, if you have something sad going on, don't keep it to yourselves, tell us too."

Chopper was also behind, with his legs crossed and his hand raised.

"That's right, I want to hear it too! I want to hear it too!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy burst out laughing.

At this moment, Brook composed himself and began to tell Franky the story of the Rumbar Pirates and Laboon.

……

With Moria defeated, all the shadows he had captured returned to their original positions, including Sentomaru's shadow.

After the shadow returned to his body, Sentomaru woke up as if he had been electrocuted.

Looking around, he gritted his teeth and said:

"You despicable Moria, I will never let you get away with this!"

With that, Sentomaru quickly checked on Bartholomew's condition.

Fortunately, although Bartholomew Bear's core was damaged, given the power of memory metal, it's not too difficult to recover from this injury.

However, the core was damaged too severely, and the bear's program is temporarily shut down.

With that in mind, Sentomaru, following the method Vegapunk had told him, went straight inside Kuma's body, found a button, and pressed it.

The next moment, the bear's body trembled, and a gas was expelled.

Immediately, Bartholomew's Bear regained consciousness, stood up, and its massive body pressed down on the fleeing warrior, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Hey, Mr. Bear, how long are you going to sleep?"

"If the Straw Hat crew gets away, neither of us will escape responsibility!"

Upon hearing this, the bear spoke in a very gentle tone:

"Don't be too anxious, someone will come to our aid soon."

Upon hearing this, a solemn expression appeared in Sentomaru's eyes.

Just then, a yellow figure flashed over from afar.

It stayed beside Sentomaru.

It was none other than Admiral Kizaru of the Marine Headquarters.

Upon seeing this, Sentomaru clenched his fist and said angrily:

"Hey, old man, where did you run off to? Do you know we almost got killed!"

Upon hearing this, Kizaru glanced at his watch and then said:

"Oh, sorry, sorry, I forgot I had to work overtime today."

Upon hearing this, Sentomaru helplessly slapped his forehead.

"Let's not waste any more time here, let's hurry up and catch up with the Straw Hat crew."

"If we can't eliminate the Straw Hat crew, we will all be punished by the Five Elders."

Upon hearing this, Kizaru smirked. He then said directly:

"Don't worry. We have another capable helper who will be here soon."

Hearing this, Sentomaru was a little confused, and the next moment, an old man with gray hair ran towards them.

It then came to a steady stop in front of Kizaru.

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Sentomaru couldn't help but cry out in shock.

He had heard of this person very much.

It was none other than Vice Admiral Garp of the Marine Headquarters!

Sentomaru was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time. In the end, it was Kuma who asked the question he wanted to ask.

"It's strange that a naval hero would come to help us wipe out the Straw Hat crew."

"If the information is correct, Straw Hat Boy should be your grandson."

Upon hearing this, Sentomaru's still-unrestrained emotions exploded once more.

"What?! Straw Hat Boy is actually the grandson of a naval hero?! How is that possible?!"

Upon hearing this, Garp patted the bear's thigh.

"Having such a disappointing grandson is quite distressing."

Despite this, Sentomaru was still somewhat skeptical, but the most important thing right now was to complete the Five Elders' mission.

In this world, no one can defy the Five Elders.

Thinking of this, Sentomaru twisted his wrist and said:

"No matter what your relationship is with Straw Hat Boy, I won't show any mercy!"

"Let's catch up with the Straw Hat Pirates quickly and wipe them out. If we're too late, we might miss Whitebeard's battle."

Upon hearing this, a hint of displeasure finally appeared on Garp's face.
