Pirates: Beginning with the Patrolman.

“Yohohoho——Even though I’m a user with special abilities, I’m actually not afraid of the sea water at all.”

Before Remos could take off his shirt, Brook's voice rang out again. Nami ran to the deck and saw Brook running on the sea.

"No way? How did you do that?"

Nami was shocked.

"Because my body is just a skeleton, it's very light, so I can run on the sea water!"

Brooke said cheerfully, running around the boat a few more times before returning to the deck.

Nami and Mei stared at him in amazement.

After looking for a while, Nami suddenly widened her eyes.

"Wait, that's not right. I remember you just said that you and Rab agreed to meet it after traveling around the world for a week, right?"

"Yes, that's what we agreed to, but we can no longer complete the voyage."

Brooke was depressed.

"Yes, you can't complete the voyage, but you can still go back to find it. You can run on the sea without looking at the chart or the compass. As long as you keep running in one direction, you will reach the Twin Capes sooner or later, right?"

Under normal circumstances, when sailing on the Grand Route, you can only move forward continuously because the ocean currents on the Grand Route are always moving forward.

There are only a few special circumstances in which a ship can turn around and go back.

One is that it has powerful power and can ignore the ocean currents, which almost no one can do.

The second is the ability to enter the Calm Belt, where there is no wind or current, and one can sail in any direction at will. However, it is a paradise for sea kings, and currently only the navy, the world government, and the ships of Nine Snake Island can move freely in the Calm Belt.

For most people, entering the doldrums is purely a gamble of their lives.

The third is to master some unknown reverse currents, which can be used to travel in the reverse direction. However, these currents are often controlled by the world government, the navy and major chambers of commerce. Ordinary people and pirates are not clear about where these currents are.

But Brook is different. He doesn't need to watch the ocean current because he can run directly on the water and the ocean current has little effect on him.

That's why Nami felt confused.

Is the so-called agreement so important?

"Of course it's important. This is the most romantic promise. I want to travel around the world and meet Rab with this achievement!"

The main reason was that his physical strength was not enough to support him to run all the way to the nearest island.

"..."

"There's another reason. I can't leave this area now."

Brooke sighed helplessly.

"why?"

Nami was very confused.

"Because my shadow is gone. As long as I leave here and shine into the sun, I will disappear immediately."

Brooke pointed down.

"Where's your shadow?"

Nami looked carefully and found that he had no shadow.

"It was taken away by that man..."

Brooke's eyes flashed with hatred for no apparent reason, and he recounted his experiences in recent years.

He died fifty years ago, and has been active in this sea area since his resurrection. Because of his agreement with Lab, he insisted on completing the feat of "circumnavigating the world".

As a result, the wait lasted for forty years.

During this period, he got lost many times and tried to take a passing boat. Unfortunately, as soon as others saw his appearance, they were scared away and didn't give him any chance at all.

Nine years ago, Gekko Moriah came to the Devil's Triangle. Brook accidentally entered the Terror Bark and had his shadow cut off by Moriah.

A person who has lost his shadow cannot be exposed to the sun, otherwise he will disappear immediately.

Now Brook had no way to leave and was completely trapped in the thick fog.

“Is there any fruit like this in the world?”

Nami was shocked.

"The Parahuman Shadow-Shadow Fruit has the ability to control shadows. The one he's talking about should be Gekko Moriah, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Remus explained.

"Shichibukai? Isn't that the same as Crocodile?"

Nami thought of the man who almost overthrew Alabasta.

"Almost the same, but Crocodile should be stronger than Moria."

In terms of strength, Moria is definitely no match for Crocodile.

Even if the strength of his subordinates is taken into account, Moria can only be completely defeated.

"What? So he's not as good as that sand man. Then can we easily defeat him?"

When Nami heard this, she immediately became full of confidence.

She didn't even need Remos to take action, she felt she could defeat Moria by herself.

"Of course it's not that simple. If Moria could be defeated so easily, he wouldn't be one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Remus shook his head.

There is no doubt that Moria’s hard power is not good, but his fruit ability is very strange, and he has several powerful zombies under his command.

At the same time, two of his three subordinates also have very strange abilities.

Absalom's transparent fruit can even dodge Observation Haki. Of course, it is only limited to ordinary Observation Haki. He cannot dodge advanced Observation Haki.

But when it comes to sneak attacks, especially in the park where domineering is not common, he is definitely an expert.

The little ghosts created by Perona's Spirit Fruit can make people extremely depressed, and then lose their will and combat effectiveness. They are also difficult to guard against.

Of course, if the ability of the fruit was known in advance, the result would be different.

"Remos..."

Nami looked at Remos.

Mei's eyes were also full of anticipation.

Remos had originally planned to meet Moriah, and now seeing the looks in Nami and Mei's eyes, he nodded.

"We can help you get your shadow back."

"Really? Great! Um, may I ask, can I sail with you guys?"

Brooke said expectantly.

"hehe."

Remus smiled, "Do you know who I am?"

"Um... aren't you pirates?"

Only then did Brook realize that the ship was not flying the pirate flag.

"We are bounty hunters, our goal is to hunt pirates. You were originally my prey, but considering that you have died once and it has been many years, I can not arrest you, and even help you.

But my ship will never accept any pirates."

Except Nami.

"Is that so? But it doesn't matter. Since you can help me, I have to thank you very much. I don't have anything else, but I can sing a song for you as my thank you gift!"

Brooke said excitedly.

"We'll talk about singing later. First, take me to find that Shichibukai. Do you know where he is?"

"No problem, leave the leading to me!"

Brook patted his chest hard, making a bang bang sound.

Then the Pioneer adjusted its direction and headed straight for the terrifying sailboat in the distance.
