Chapter 81 The Surprised west Yan, A Spirit Beast Delivered to His Door?
"Where's that sound coming from, hey!" Usopp immediately bristled, covering his ears and trembling as he said, "Don't listen! Don't listen! It's an evil spirit's bewitching influence! If you listen, you'll be captured!"
"what!"
"No!"
Chopper was so scared that his fur stood on end, and he clung to Usopp, trembling with fear.
"Could it really be a ghost ship?"
"I don't know, but that sound does sound rather eerie..."
"It's here! It's a ghost ship!!"
As the eerie ship drew closer to the Thousand Sunny, and with those inexplicable, strange noises, the atmosphere instantly became incredibly terrifying.
west Yan and Zoro gripped the hilts of their swords at their waists, their eyes fixed intently on the ghost ship.
There's a figure up there.
"Is he an enemy?" Zoro asked. "If he's an enemy, then kill him."
"Please stop talking, please stop!"
"Is it... a ship spirit?"
Clutching west Yan's pants, Mei Li asked tremblingly, "Is it a ship spirit?"
If it's a ship spirit, then she won't be afraid, because they are of the same kind.
But if it's a ghost... she's scared too!
"I don't know if it's a ship spirit, but that guy on top..." With his Sharingan activated, west Yan immediately recognized what the other party looked like.
This startled him for a moment, then he exclaimed in disbelief, "A... a moving skeleton?"
"What?"
"Everyone, prepare yourselves, this thing is a moving skeleton!"
west Yan realized that the strange sound was clearly coming from the moving skull.
But why is there a moving skeleton?
Could it be... that this guy is also a similar being to Meryl, belonging to that kind of extremely special life form?
Thinking of this, west Yan became excited. This might be a spirit beast that came to his doorstep!
"A moving skeleton?" Sanji exclaimed in shock. "Hey, Xiyan, are you sure you're not seeing things?"
"no."
"Damn it, could it really be a ghost?!" Usopp yelled. "Chopper, don't look up!"
They'll be taken away!
Chopper, who was standing nearby, was so frightened by what he heard that tears welled up in his eyes. He trembled all over and didn't even dare to lift his head. Just then, the ship approached the Thousand Sunny, allowing the group to see clearly what was on board.
Brooke's body swayed slightly to the rhythm of his singing, as if he were enjoying something.
"It really is a moving skeleton...::"
"Yohohoho~"
"Yo-ho yo-ho~"
"Yohohoho~"
"Yo-ho yo-ho~"
"Binks' fine wine."
Watching the wrecked ship recede into the distance, Luffy suddenly broke into an excited expression and exclaimed, "Hey, did you guys see that? That skeleton can sing and talk!"
This strange and unusual creature immediately attracted Luffy's attention.
He was eager to go over and see what was going on with that guy.
"Idiot, how could a skeleton sing?!" Usopp roared, opening his shark-like mouth. "Don't talk nonsense, Luffy!"
"But he was singing just now."
"That must be an evil spirit bewitching us."
"I don't know if it's evil or not, but... this guy might become a summoning beast," west Yan said, stroking his chin.
"What do you mean?"
"I suspect this guy is a special life form, like Merry," west Yan laughed. "Hey, Luffy, want to go check it out?"
If he could really get his name recorded in the psychic scroll, then he really would have to make the trip.
"Hey, Xiyan, what's wrong with you...?"
"Let's go, west Yan, let's set off!"
Luffy excitedly grabbed west Yan and quickly walked towards the ship, saying, "Quick, don't let that guy get away."
At this moment, Luffy couldn't wait to see the moving skeleton.
This is a living skeleton!
"Hey, you two, wait a minute!" Sanji shouted.
"What's wrong?"
"Let's draw lots before we go," Zoro said, taking out a few small sticks. "Whoever draws the longest one will go with Luffy."
"Why?!"
"Damn Zoro, can't you just let whoever wants to go go?"
Nami immediately lost her temper. Didn't the lottery mean she would be chosen too?
The thought of facing such a terrifying skeleton sent shivers down her spine.
"If we go directly there, there won't be many people left on the ship," Zoro said. "You should be able to tell that, right?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Nico Robin and Franky, who were standing next to Luffy and were clearly planning to go together.
If he and Sanji go too, then only Nami and the other three will be left on the ship, which is obviously not good. If something terrible really appears in the fog, these four will be in danger.
Nami:
"Okay...I'll take it...I'll take it, alright?"
Nami burst into tears, making this decision with immense pain.
"Thank God I don't want to be chosen," Usopp muttered to himself.
"Well, will this even work?"
"Chopper, Merry, you'd better pray, or you'll be chosen!"
"profound!"
The two little guys, who had been successfully led astray by Usopp, closed their eyes and prayed, then smoked a cigarette with Usopp.
As a result, none of the three were selected, but Nami was chosen.
"Why me...?"
Jiu Na's face turned green. She was clearly the one who was most afraid, so why did she have to go to such a terrifying place?
The thought of getting close to those terrifying skeletons made Nami tremble uncontrollably.
"Nami, I already told you, you need to pray to make sure you don't get picked."
"Damn it, can we do it again...?"
"That won't do," Zoro shook his head and said, "If we have to start over every time, then there's no point in drawing lots."
Seeing Zoro say this, Nami could only resign herself to her fate and lower her head, letting out a silent sigh.
Ultimately, Sanji, Xiyan, Luffy, and Nami were chosen and boarded a lifeboat heading towards the ghost ship.
"Seriously, if you're so scared, you shouldn't have come."
"You bastard Luffy!" Nami grabbed Luffy by the neck and said, "Do you think I came here willingly?!"
"If it weren't for drawing that damn lot..."
With his neck being choked, Luffy looked at Nami helplessly and said, "I can do it myself."
"That won't do," Sanji said. "Who knows if you'll do something reckless? It wouldn't be good if our ship got cursed."
"Then why doesn't Xiyan come with me?"
"This guy's recklessness isn't much better than yours," Sanji retorted.
What wouldn't a madman who dares to challenge the Buster Call do?
What ghost?
What curse?
If someone dares to attack this guy, they'll probably get hit by a fire jutsu the moment they meet.
However, doing so might taint the Thousand Sunny with some kind of curse, so Sanji has to be careful.
"Tch, don't think of me like Luffy," west Yan said, scoffing.
"Alright, let's hurry up and go. I still need to see that skeleton." Luffy, now free from Nami's control, looked up and said, "I wonder what kind of person this guy is."
"How could this possibly be human?!"
"Decades have passed... I never expected to encounter a living person again."
Brooke, holding a glass of water, trembled slightly, her whole body caught up in excitement.
So many years have passed, and he still wanders here alone, like a departed spirit.
Finally seeing other living people! How could Brook, who was going crazy with loneliness, not be excited?!
"Yohohoho~"
"This is so exciting!"
"Finally, we see living people!"
Brooke couldn't quite remember when he last saw a living person.
Seeing the group of people climbing up the rope, Brooke immediately approached them and said, "Hello, fellow survivors!"
"I'm so sorry, I didn't have a chance to greet everyone earlier."
"I'm so excited! I haven't seen a living person in decades! Hooray!"
"This place is full of ghost ships, it really scared me."
"Come, come, everyone, please make yourselves at home and find a seat."
"Look, this guy is really talking!" Luffy exclaimed, his eyes shining. "It really is a living skeleton!"
"Not only that, this guy is also a chatterbox."
Sanji looked at Brook with surprise, not expecting the other to talk so much, which immediately dispelled the terrifying atmosphere.
Even though the opponent was a skeleton, Sanji didn't find it particularly scary.
"Haven't seen a living person in decades?" west Yan raised an eyebrow and said, "Could it really be some kind of special life form?"
This immediately piqued west Yan's interest. This guy might actually be able to leave his name on the spirit scroll, but he didn't know if the other party had any special abilities.
If it has no abilities and is just a moving skeleton, then it's not very useful; it can only be used to scare people.
"Ah~"
"Upon closer inspection, I discovered there was actually a beautiful young lady here! I was so excited I was trembling all over."
After speaking, under the questioning gazes of the others, Brooke placed his tea on the table and tidied his appearance with great gentlemanly manners. His solemn demeanor gave the others the illusion that Brooke was indeed a gentleman.
After gently wiping his shoes, Brook approached Nami and said, "Beautiful lady, may I admire your panties?"
west Yan: ...
Sanji: ? ? ?
Nami: !!!
"Damn it, who would show it to you!"
"bump!"
Enraged, Nami punched Brook on the head, sending him spinning before he crashed to the ground.
But Brooke didn't care at all, and instead laughed and said, "That was a really brutal punch, it hurt right up to my head."
"Ah, although I'm just a skeleton and don't have a brain, yo ho ho ho ho~"
"You lecherous skeleton, die!" Nami roared, opening her shark mouth.
After Brook's antics, Nami was no longer afraid, and even wanted to beat him up again.
Who asks this kind of question right off the bat?
"Hahaha, this guy is really funny."
"More than that, I'm curious why a skeleton can get lumps?" Sanji retorted. "Isn't he just bones?"
It looks like it has no flesh at all, yet a bump grew out because it got beaten up?
What is this special principle?
"Um...maybe it's because of Nami?"
west Yan thought about it for a moment and realized that Nami sometimes really does possess special abilities.
For example, when beating up his own people, the speed and power were beyond imagination, even shocking him.
Anyway, whenever Nami wants to beat someone up, it seems like no one else can escape.
Hearing west Yan's explanation, Sanji seriously considered it for a moment, then realized that west Yan was teasing him.
"How could this be, you bastard!"
"You lecherous skeleton, if you ask me that again, I'll beat you up!" Nami said, clenching her fists.
"Wow, she's quite the feisty girl!"
Brook got up, not angry about being beaten, but because of Nami, he felt like he had come back to life.
He feared loneliness more than pain.
"Hey, skeleton, can you poop?" Luffy suddenly asked.
Sanji: ? ? ?
"Is this the time to ask that?" Sanji roared, his shark-like mouth agape. "What are you thinking?"
Shouldn't we be asking more important questions, like what's going on here, or whether there's a ghost ship or something?
And that bastard Luffy asked that?
"No, actually I'm quite curious about this too," west Yan said, stroking his chin.
"Damn it, you're just like Luffy!"
"Well, that's a problem..."
Brook thought about it seriously for a moment, walked to the side to pick up his tea, and then looked at Luffy and said, "Yes, I will."
"Damn it, does this kind of thing really need to be considered for so long?!"
"Hahaha, you're really funny," Luffy laughed. "Hey, Skull, be my partner!"
"Huh?!?!"
Sanji and Nami stared at Luffy in disbelief. Had he just directly invited him to join the pirate crew?
Let's at least find out what's going on before we talk!
"OK."
"Masami agreed?!"
"As expected of Luffy," west Yan exclaimed.
This scene gave him a familiar feeling. When he met Luffy and his crew on the Sea Train, wasn't Luffy just as straightforward in inviting him to join the Straw Hat Pirates?
The dialogue between the two was equally simple and direct; one question led to another, and they became partners immediately.
"Damn it..." Sanji covered his face and said, "I can't believe I'm seeing that green-haired guy mocking me."
(You idiot cook, what exactly did you all do?!)
"Yeah, me too."
"Come on, follow me to our ship," Luffy invited. "I can introduce you to our crew!"
"Oh ho ho ho, that's truly an honor~" Brooke said in a very gentlemanly manner, giving a polite bow. "Well then, please lead the way."
Being able to see more living people is good news for Brooke.
"Hey, Xiyan, should we take him back with us?" Nami asked, grabbing Xiyan's arm.
"Luffy has already invited him to join his crew, so naturally we have to bring him back," west Yan said. "Just accept your fate."
Nami-chan~
In situations like this, when Luffy, as the captain, makes a decision, everyone in the pirate crew must obey.
Nami knew that Xiyan was right, and in the end, she could only nod in resignation.
Just like Xiyan said, this was Luffy's decision as captain, so what else could she say?
I just hope this skeleton-like figure is at least somewhat reliable.
However, the thought of the other party making that kind of request as soon as they met made Nami feel worried about her future.
"Let's go, back to Wanli Yangguang Le!"
"profound!"
