Seeing that Brooke finally agreed, Youyouzi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then get ready to leave here with us. It's foggy and annoying."
"etc."
Brooke stood up and called to Youyuko.
"What's wrong?" Youyouzi turned away unhappily.
Why are there so many shits?
Brooke said with some embarrassment, "Although I want to leave with you now, I can't leave."
"Why?"
"Well..." Brooke tweaked, "That's what happened. Two years ago, an extremely huge sailboat suddenly appeared in the Devil's Triangle. Its owner is a very powerful fruit user, who has the ability to take away and control The power of other people's shadows. He put the captured shadows into corpses to create zombies and became monsters that would not die. The person whose shadow was captured cannot move in the sun because of the loss of his shadow, otherwise he would disappear into thin air. And my shadow was taken away from me.”
"..." Youyouzi pressed her forehead speechlessly. "Miscalculation."
Youyouzi finally understood that something was wrong with him.
Yes miscalculation.
Youyouzi really forgot this time. In the comics, Luffy met Brooke because Brooke was preparing to go back and take back his shadow. At that time, Brooke had already walked out of the shadow of his shadow being taken away, and was ready to face everything and start over. Luffy's The road just gave him a choice, and Luffy's friendship with Labu made Brooke's sense of belonging stronger.
And now Brooke is exactly at the period of extreme depression when his shadow was taken away.
No wonder he talks like a middle-aged man who has been completely defeated by life, struggling...
As for why it was said to be a miscalculation. Very simple. Because Youyouzi forgot about this matter for two years. If he had come to find Brooke two years ago, Moria, who had not obtained the rights to the Shichibukai at that time, had not yet taken root in the triangle area. Maybe Brooke would still be just a skeleton that was suffocated.
Brooke, who had not been hit by reality and was panicking, would never be as pessimistic as he is now if he heard the news about Yuyuko.
But if you find the problem, it will be easy to solve.
"Magic duck...oh no, that guy Moria, right? I haven't seen him for a long time."
The corners of Yuyouzi's lips curled up, thinking of Perona on the devil's triangular sailboat.
Let's take the makeup off her face this time. Youyouzi thought silently.
By the way, let’s take a look at what level Moria is at now after playing figurines at home for two years. I don’t know if there is a drop from diamond to gold.
Then Yuyuko touched the non-existent saliva at the corner of her mouth, "In that case, kids, get ready, we are going to find Moria!"
After saying that, Youyuko looked at the many fractures on Brooke's body, and then added, "By the way, prepare some milk for him, he needs calcium supplements."
…
Sky Island, White Sea, Prometheus Base.
This was a name given by Youyouzi casually, saying it was the name of a fire bearer.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the conference room inside the base was very depressing.
"Is this true?"
Tasia nodded, "Well, it's confirmed. Now the Skirmishers Pirates have been broken up. The deputy leader of the Skirmishers Pirates hopes that we can avenge the team battle Darabeng. They... are very... now." …Hmm… lively”
"No need to be shy."
After hearing such words, Tasia's expression condensed. "They have split into two groups. One group demanded immediate action for revenge, while the other group expressed understanding. It's just that this matter spread internally, and what follows is The decision could have significant ramifications.”
"Indeed, after all, even I can't hide my anger about Darabeng's death this time."
Locke remembered that Darabeng was an out-of-the-box guy, and his fellow pirates all liked him very much, he was friendly and happy. He treats everyone with such humility. Only this time...
"What do you think?"
Four telephone bugs are placed on the opposite side of the table, and next to the phone bugs are daffodils. (Narcissus: Siren Pirates, the little girl who linked the fruit)
On the other end of the phone were the other four branch commanders, Shilok, Elman, Laxus and Denos.
Shilok was relatively stable, but this time he was the first to speak.
"This matter can only be dropped. Although it will be very damaging to morale, the navy is at its strongest right now, and retaliation will definitely attract the navy's attention. The Revolutionary Army has experienced this situation countless times."
Elman was silent. He wanted to take revenge and spread anger, but after hearing Shilok's words, he didn't know what to say and could only sigh. "I have no idea."
Locke heard the contradiction in Elman's tone and nodded, "It's okay, everyone knows about you, so let's leave the rest to Lu."
Everyone had no objections. The relationship between Lu and Elman had been spread within 'Lan', and Luo Keer regarded her as one with Elman. Moreover, this incident happened in the North Sea, and it was indeed difficult for Elman to handle it.
Lagerthas had a bad temper, "Fuck, fuck him, don't let the brothers feel cold! And as long as we act fast, even the navy won't be able to detect us!"
"Then we were investigated by the Navy and asked to be investigated by the World Government. If they follow the clues and find out that there is a group like us hidden behind the Skirmisher Pirates, it may cause us to come to the forefront immediately and cause consequences to subsequent actions. It's such an inconvenience. We... now, as Sister Yuyouzi said, we need to hide!"
Denos, who usually jumped around, didn't speak this time. Although he usually jumped around, he also knew how to look at the atmosphere. He didn't speak just because he wanted to think more.
Although concealment is the current priority, this matter is indeed different.
This time Darabeng unexpectedly met a lieutenant general outside. Originally, he was carrying out a small mission given by Elman, and the content of the mission was very ordinary. He went to inspect the situation in a small town. There seemed to be some problems with the navy stationed there, and it might become the next area suitable for the expansion of the revolutionary army. The revolutionary army was short of manpower, and many of them had been exposed, so the task was transferred to 'Lan'.
The matter was not serious. Who would have thought that although Dalabeng found something wrong here, it was discovered by the navy stationed there. Then the navy directly used his direct position to deceive a lieutenant general who came to the North Sea for a cruise. The lieutenant general When he heard it was a pirate and found a reward, he took action.
Dalabeng naturally resisted vigorously, but in the end, he did not know what happened. Dalabeng did not retreat, but fought to the death there.
Rather than discussing the aftermath, Denock wanted to know what happened there. What caused Dalabeng to not evacuate in the end. According to his strength, although he would definitely lose in battle with the lieutenant general, escaping was not particularly difficult.
"Brother...why didn't Darabeng choose to evacuate?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone stopped discussing.
After a moment of silence, Tasia coughed slightly and said.
"In fact, we were already conducting an investigation as soon as we learned about the incident, but the reason why the incident came to this is entirely because the crew members of Dalabeng have a deep relationship with him, and many of them have a life-saving debt, so they are very emotional. . Moreover, Darabeng went on the mission alone at the time, so it was very troublesome to investigate many situations."
"Can't his crew wait?" Sirok asked.
Tasia shook her head, "That's the problem. The deputy captain of the main battle has left with his people. What we are actually discussing now is whether to support them or how to stop them. They have been influenced by emotions... out of control."
"Are you being influenced by emotions?" Lu, who replaced Elman, pondered. "This is indeed a difficult problem to control, especially since almost all of Darabon's skirmishing pirates have accepted his life-saving kindness. It makes sense. It is expected, but it is not in line with the current situation. ...Brother Locke, I think we should take action to control them first. Then we can discuss further based on the investigation."
"They don't agree," Narcissus said suddenly.
As a user with the connection fruit ability, she can achieve a certain degree of sharing with the person she connects to. For this meeting, she connected with the vice-captain of the Skirmisher Pirates and briefly shared her hearing.
"She said that she no longer had the idea of living alone, and that she would not leak the organization's information. However... she said that she would first persuade the people she took to accept the arrangement."
"He is also an infatuated person~" Lu sighed in admiration and stopped talking.
Everyone was silent.
…
After the meeting, Locke and Tasia returned to the office, "Tasia, this matter will make everyone feel a little unstable."
"You can ask the Wind Leaders, maybe they can give you the answer." Tasia said.
Locke shook his head, "No, asking blindly will make us unable to think independently. Revolution is not a training that can be completed by following orders, but a war that requires adaptability. It's just the beginning now, and we won't deal with these problems in the future. It’s going to be hard.”
Tasia's mouth curved, "Aren't you already prepared?"
A cup of green tea was placed in front of Locke.
"I am prepared, but I don't know if other warriors are prepared. We have developed so well, which gives everyone so many wonderful imaginations about the future, and perhaps it is time to remind everyone of the cruelty of the world."
"..." Tasia closed her eyes and recalled her former slave life. After a long time, she suppressed her chest and said tremblingly, "That... is too cruel."
"Yes~ But... what we are preparing for is a... war that will overturn the world!"
The office suddenly became quiet.
Tasia's thoughts were a little confused, while Locke was a little depressed.
Finally, Locke let out a long breath, "I thought of one thing. Tell Scarlett that we will help her with her actions, but...it will only be limited to her." "We can allow everyone to have emotions, but it's a matter of right and wrong. We can't let a group of people act emotionally in front of us. She must control the remaining guys."
"Understood."
