"One Piece" Events:
"Hm? I can hear something!" Luffy, who had been singing merrily, was drawn to some strange sounds.
"Negative, Negative" He heard.
"There it is! The ghost!!" He exclaimed as three dancing ghosts appeared in front of the crew, making Luffy want to catch them.
"Wow, when he dances he clones himself, so cool!" Luffy said, impressed.
"Negative, Negative" He heard again.
"I'm gonna catch him and keep him!" Luffy exclaimed, determined to capture the ghost.
But Luffy soon found out that ghosts have no physical body, and he couldn't catch them.
"It's nothing but a soul... Well then... FRESH FIRE!!" Franky also attempted to vaporize them using his fire breath, but it didn't work and backfired, causing Franky's spirit to fall to rock bottom the next moment.
"Useless didn't work," Franky said, defeated. "Totally useless. I'm really weak... I'm useless. I have no confidence in living anymore... I want to die! SOB" Franky became emotional.
Seeing this scene made Sanji angry. "Why are they getting like this!!"
The same thing happened to Luffy, "GOD DAMMIT!!" he exclaimed. "If I get reborn... I want to become a clam. This sucks... I want to die..."
This time, Sanji got angry when seeing Luffy also in this state. "Now what are you two doing!? You're just the same!"
Robin noticed the strangeness of these ghosts and immediately knew what was wrong. "Maybe when you're touched by these ghosts, your spirit gets really down?"
Sanji: "Those idiots..."
On the other hand, Zoro expressed his disdain. "Hmph! You guys are pitiful because you never pull yourselves together. You're letting some strange ghost or something make fun of you!!"
But immediately after that, a negative ghost passed through Zoro's body and the same thing happened. "I'm sorry I was born..."
"ENOUGH ALREADY!!!" Sanji finally buys Robin's idea. "Looks like you're right, Robin-chan..."
"Not only do they have no real body... When you get touched, your spirit gets crushed. As enemies, they would be difficult... A strange island." Robin said.
Sanji nodded in agreement at Robin's words. "Indeed..."
...
"Damn you ghosts, next time you show up... I won't forgive you!!!" After regaining their high spirits, Luffy and Franky looked very angry.
"They must have a weak spot!! I'm gonna wipe them out!!!"
"Keeping them canceled too!!!" Sitting on the zombie's dog, Sanji was laughing so hard after remembering Zoro's situation. "WAHAHAHAHA, I saw something funny!!!"
"SHUT UP!!!"
"Hahahaha! Even the three-headed zombie dog is laughing at Zoro!" A resident of Ohara couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of the scene in the manga they were reading.
"Ahahahahaha! My stomach hurts! I can't take it! This is too funny! Hahaha!" One of them exclaimed as they clutched their stomach in laughter.
"What's funnier than ghost jokes? Hahahaha!" Another chimed in, referencing a popular type of joke within the manga. The laughter continued as the group discussed the various comedic moments in the arc, including the fox's head becoming energized after seeing Zoro's distress.
"Hahaha! Even though they made a fool of him, Luffy still wants to catch them and add them to the crew. What a generous captain." One commented on the main protagonist's character.
"This arc is really funny. Although it looks scary, it's too funny to watch, hahaha!" Another added.
"Yeah, there are more than a thousand funny scenes in this arc! Hahaha!" A third agreed.
The atmosphere inside the art store was lively and comedic as readers discussed their favorite moments in the manga.
...
In the far corner of the store, Brook was still caught up in the scene where a strange samurai mimicked his unique laughter.
"Could it be that the person who stole my shadow is this samurai? Is it Moria?" Brook wondered out loud.
"No, this isn't Moria. It's obviously a zombie, but it's moving by using your shadow." Vegapunk corrected him.
"It's moving by using my shadow?" Brook was confused by Vegapunk's words.
"Look at this. Luffy and his friends are speechless about why these zombies are so alive, right?" Vegapunk pointed out.
"Oh, right..." Brook responded, still trying to understand.
"This is because they are not really zombies, they are just corpses in which the shadows of living people have been placed, giving them the ability to move like the original shadow owners," Vegapunk explained.
Brook's eyes widened in understanding and his confusion was finally resolved. "So then..."
...
North Blue, Flevance Nation:
The homeland of the Trafalgar family has changed too much.
The people of Flevance Nation were once a proud and prosperous kingdom, known for their abundance of Amber Lead, a valuable mineral that was used in a variety of industrial processes. However, they were unaware that the mining and use of Amber Lead was poisoning their land and water, causing a curse that had secretly tormented the people for hundreds of years. It wasn't until the curse of Amber Lead was lifted that the true extent of the damage caused by the mining was revealed.
The people of Flevance were faced with a difficult decision, they had to choose between their luxury lifestyle and the well-being of their nation. But once they became aware of the enormous danger caused by the source of their former prosperity, they knew what had to be done. They accepted the change in the country's system from a kingdom to a republic and the banishment of the king.
The acceptance of these changes was also aided by the existence of an art store and the popular manga "One Piece." The manga, in particular, was well-received because it depicted reality for the people and told the story of a true protagonist who starts from nothing and achieves everything. The story of Luffy, the main character, and his crew known as Nakama, resonated with the people of Flevance. They saw themselves in Luffy's journey and wanted to follow his story to the end.
Luffy's adventures have always been exciting and made people want to go to sea, and his latest adventure on Thriller Bark is no different. The story of Luffy and his crew has always been appealing and fun to read and continues to inspire people to dream of their own sea-faring adventures. The people of Flevance Nation are now looking forward to a bright and prosperous future, free from the curse of Amber Lead and with a new sense of hope and determination.
"I don't think they are actually zombies," said Marry, as she studied the strange creatures in the manga. "They seem more like human dolls to me."
"Yes, my dear, that's what I think too," Chris responded, nodding in agreement. He couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
As they continued to read today's volume, Marry touched her belly with maternal tenderness as she felt the baby kick her. "What? Is little Law moving again? Hahaha! My child is so excited to get out after all," she exclaimed, a smile spreading across her face.
A happy smile appeared on Chris's face as well, as he thought about his soon-to-be-born child. He was sure that his son would be just as strong and determined as Luffy, the protagonist of his favorite manga. He couldn't wait to see what kind of person his child would grow up to be.
"I wonder if our little child will appear in the manga later? What do you think, dear!?" Chris asked, turning to Marry with a twinkle in his eye.
"I don't want that," Marry replied, her expression becoming more complicated as she thought about the idea in another light. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of dangers and challenges a child of theirs would face if they were to appear in a manga like that. She just wanted her child to be safe and happy.
