Sailing: His comprehension is against the sky, and he comprehends the Eight Gates at the beginning.

They saw that Moria, after receiving a definite answer, looked extremely surprised and excitedly said to the three of them.

"Great!"

"Bring them to our island quickly!"

Upon hearing this, the three were extremely surprised and exclaimed in astonishment.

"Master...Master! What did you say?"

"You mean you want to bring them to our island?"

"Didn't you hear me? They're the Straw Hat Pirates!"

Seeing the terrified looks on the three faces, and hearing them utter such doubtful words.

Moria frowned immediately, and said with a hint of anger.

"What do you mean?"

What happened to the Straw Hat crew?

"Do you think I, Moonlight Moria, would be afraid of them?"

The three were immediately intimidated by Moria's imposing manner and fell silent.

Moria, however, continued confidently.

"I am a man who once fought Kaido!"

"What's a straw hat kid compared to that?"

"Bring them here as you see fit."

Chapter 129 Moria's Trump Card! Inviting Brook!

Moria remained confident and continued.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"That little straw hat boy is now called the fifth emperor."

"If I could obtain his shadow and combine it with the strongest body we found, Oz the Demon, we could create the strongest zombie."

"With this strongest zombie, neither Kaido nor the Four Emperors will be a match for us."

"I will definitely use this to... become the Pirate King!"

"Hehehehe..."

Moria laughed heartily, his eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.

However, the three freak executives still had deep fear on their faces as they looked at Moria and said...

"Master! Straw Hat Luffy's shadow is powerful, but how can we obtain it?"

"Yes, Master! Those people are so strong, we are definitely no match for them."

Upon hearing this, Moria immediately stopped laughing, glanced at the group, and curled his lips into a strange smile before speaking.

"Who said we were going to fight them?"

Upon hearing this, all three looked puzzled.

If we don't fight, do you think the other side will obediently send their shadow over?

Seeing that the three of them still hadn't reacted, Moria sighed and said.

"You're all intimidated by their bounty and their reputation!"

As he spoke, Moria's gaze suddenly fell on Perona, and he continued.

Have you forgotten?

"We have Perona as our trump card!"

Upon hearing this, the three of them were suddenly stunned, as if waking from a dream and realizing what had just happened.

Moria continued.

"No one can resist Perona's negative phantom!"

"As long as Perona uses her abilities to restrict their movements."

"I will make my appearance at this time."

"Didn't we easily take down their group's shadows?"

"The person whose shadow I cut off will fall into a deep sleep."

"During this time, we can throw them off our island again. Wouldn't that allow us to acquire a powerful zombie army without fighting?"

"With the zombies' immortality, this zombie army, bearing the shadow of the Straw Hat crew, will surely make us the strongest pirate crew in one fell swoop!"

"I will use this to... become the Pirate King in one fell swoop!"

"Hehehehe..."

Moria burst into excited laughter again as he spoke.

At this moment, the three monster executives were also awakened by Moria's words, and each of them showed an excited expression.

"Indeed! We were intimidated when we first heard the name of the Straw Hat Pirates. We completely forgot about our abilities. But thinking about it this way, the Straw Hat Pirates aren't so scary after all!"

"I'd even forgotten my own abilities! Thank goodness my master reminded me! Even if they're the Straw Hat crew, they definitely can't escape my power! Hara hara hara..."

"Finally, I can use that demon? That's the strongest body I've ever seen in 307. I wonder what kind of monster will emerge if it combines with Straw Hat Luffy's shadow! I can't wait! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss..."

Led by Moria, the room was filled with their various strange laughs.

...

Onboard the Sunny!

After a brief introduction, Brook was asked by Luffy to stay and have a meal with the Straw Hat crew.

After eating and drinking his fill, Brooke let out a long sigh of relief and said with great satisfaction.

Ah! I'm so full!

Brook then thanked Luffy and the Straw Hat crew.

"Mr. Luffy, thank you so much for your hospitality!"

"50 years!"

"I haven't eaten such delicious food or felt so full in 50 years since I died!"

"I'm so happy!"

"It's so great to meet you all here!"

Brooke spoke with a tone full of emotion.

He had been adrift in these waters alone for 50 years, and this feeling was something he hadn't experienced in a long time and was incredibly exciting.

Usopp and the others kept their distance from Brook, looking fearful.

Sanji, however, was puzzled after hearing Brook's words.

"You're saying you've been dead for 50 years?"

"So what's wrong with your body?"

Upon hearing this, Brooke immediately explained to everyone.

"Oh! I forgot to tell you!"

"I am a user of the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit), a fruit that grants a second life; it's an incredibly powerful ability."

"Actually, I used to be a pirate just like you!"

"My companions and I sailed to this devilish sea, but we encountered a group of powerful enemies there."

"In that battle... our entire army was wiped out!"

"Of course, I died at that time too!"

"But miraculously, after my death, the Yomi Yomi no Mi's power, which had never been effective during my life, finally activated."

"My soul has returned to the world of the living from the underworld."

"But because the fog in this sea area was so thick, my soul was lost in this thick fog for a year."

"A year later, when I finally found my body, I discovered it had turned into this skeleton!"

"I was so scared that my eyes rolled back!"

"Huh?! Even though I don't have eyes anymore!"

"Yohohohoho..."

Upon hearing about Brooke's ordeal, everyone understood what had happened.

"It really is a Devil Fruit!"

"So that's how it is! That's why there are talking skulls!"

"But even bones can be resurrected, this Devil Fruit is truly terrifying!"

While the others were expressing their feelings, Luffy suddenly spoke up.

"Hey! Brooke!"

Join us...be our partner!

Upon hearing Luffy's words, the entire Straw Hat crew gasped in surprise.

"Eh?!!!"

"Luffy...Luffy! Don't invite just anyone!"

"Yeah! This thing is a skeleton!"

Those who said such things were mainly Usopp and a few other cowards.

Although these words sounded a bit harsh, Brooke didn't mind.

Instead, he sighed to himself.

"All this time, I've been in this pitch-black sea, where time seems to stand still, shrouded in thick fog..."

"Alone, I sail on a rudderless ship, drifting aimlessly."

"This went on for 50 years..."

"I...I'm so lonely!"

"I'm lonely! I'm scared! I want to die!"

Everyone else was stunned by Brook's words. Even Usopp and the others stopped showing their fear and felt deep sympathy for Brook's plight.

Brook suddenly became very moved and said to Luffy.

"so..."

"Mr. Luffy! I'm so happy that you invited me to be your crewmate!"

"I really... really want to be your partner!"

Brook spoke with great sincerity, and everyone could hear his intense desire in his tone.

But to everyone's surprise, Brook refused Luffy's invitation.

"but..."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Luffy!"

"I can't go to sea with you!"

As he spoke, Brooke suddenly got up from his seat, stood under the light, and then addressed the crowd.

"As you can see, I...have no shadow!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked down at Brooke's feet and, sure enough, saw no shadow.

Immediately, a series of exclamations rang out.
