Ray: *stares suspiciously* Okay.
*Door closes*
God damn Ray. What was I talking about again...? Eh, who cares! Let's get Ridin'!
A New Legend
Entering the Grand Sea! part 6
Embarking on the True Adventure!
"OH MY GOD! THIS IS NOT HAPPENING, BUT IT IS! IT IS THE "HUMMING" BROOK! ONE OF THE SECOND PIRATE KING'S CREW! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!" shouted Chris appearing next to Ray and Emerald in a split second, stars in her eyes as she admired Brook. "Can I have your autograph?"
Calico also appeared next to Chris with his katana unsheathed. "Humming" Brook, I challenge you to a duel!"
"Eh." Brook made as he turned his head toward Calico. El was next to meet Brook up close, almost reacting the same way Chris had. "Oh." Brook turned toward El. One by one the crew got up to Brook, asking him questions, asking him to a duel, fan boying or girling, or anything else.
"My, oh my, so many guests. I haven't even made tea yet!" They hear Brook say as he started twirling in pace for whatever reason. "Though I don't have to worry about being lonely anymore! Anyone would come to this lighthouse! Though I have never met so many people at once for a very long time. It makes my eyes tear up... Oh, I don't have eyes, for I am all bones. Skull joke! Yohohohohohohoho!"
Ray laughed hard and Emerald faced palmed as she sighed deeply. The rest of the crew just blinked. They then heard a loud roar coming from all directions. "W-who making all that noise!" asked Sora as he tried to block out the sound with his hands. A giant whale loomed over the crew, a horrible drawing of the straw hat insignia. "W-WHAT'S WITH THAT WHALE!" shouted El as everyone took a step back except Ray, Emerald, and Brook.
"Ah, that's my good friend-" started Brook before being interrupted.
"Laboon~!" shouted Ray as he ran as fast as he could toward the giant whale. The crew blinked as they watched Ray run toward the giant whale. The whale looked at Ray and made several happy sounds. The crew blinked again. Ray began talking happily. The crew was surprised to see the whale was docile toward Ray. They blinked twice. "Ehhhhhhh!"
"Well 58 years is a lot of time for a whale to grow. I bet he could take on two sea kings now. Yohohoho!" He walked up to the crew and Emerald also met with the crew. He looked at the ladies of the crew. He bent down to meet with most of them at eye level. Nothing happened and the tension was getting to most of them. Emerald was busy balling up a fist and covering it in emerald as she knew what he was going to say. "May I see your panties, ladies?" he asked politely.
This shocked El, Luna, Charity, and Chris. Emerald was the first to answer. "Brook. You never learn do you? Or maybe you have forgotten. Well either way, we shall teach you a lesson. Right ladies?" The girls nodded as Charity rose a leg and Chris took out her dagger. El balled up a fist and Luna was ready to drop kick Brook. Brook started sweating as he back up a step. "In other words..." Brook was then sent flying into the lighthouse in a comical manner, with magical red bumps on his head.
"NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS!" They shouted in anger as they started stomping on Brook, their faces red with anger. Sora hid behind Itu.
"I can't trust Luna anymore..." He whispered in fear. Itu chuckled as he patted Sora's head.
"You can, just don't piss her off. Just don't piss any girl off. Remember that, it might save your life Sora."
"Well it's been a while Ray-san, Emerald-san." said Brook as he took a sip of tea. "I see you have become wanted pirates."
"Heh heh, yeah! I even built this big of a crew already!" said Ray confidently. Emerald banged his head.
"I helped too!" she shouted before taking a light pause. She then started pounding Ray down.
"Yohohoho! You still have no mercy Emerald-san!" said Brook chuckling. Emerald glared at Brook. "Shut it!"
"So this is "Humming" Brook..." said El in wonder. "I was expecting him to be more... serious."
"Have you never met a Straw Hat?" asked Ray in a know-it-all voice. "Don't answer that."
"Yes. "Black Foot" Sanji, remember. He was pretty serious, well except when he acts like a pervert." answered El. Ray slumped as a depressing aura surrounded him. "I said to not answer that."
"So how has the job to guard this place after the first pirate king's crew member been so far?" asked Emerald.
"It's been so much fun! I've meet so many people everyday and I always get to be with Laboon!" said Brook cheerfully. Laboon made a sound of happiness.
"I have a question." Chris said raising a hand briefly. Everyone turned their attention to Chris. She pointed at Ray and Emerald. "Why are you guys acting like you know "Humming" Brook?"
"Oh yeah we haven't the four of you." said Ray, gaining Echo's attention, who had been silent the whole time. "Well we used to be slaves and we kind of got saved by the Straw Hat crew. We also got to stay in their crew for a month."
Itu's eyes widened when he had heard Ray say he was a slave. That was all he thought about for that day. Chris's mouth dropped open before she grabbed Ray's shirt and shook his violently. Ray shouted as he was shaken. "YOU GOT TO STAY IN THE SECOND PIRATE KING'S CREW FOR A MONTH! YOU LUCKY SON OF A- AND YOU AREN'T EVEN ACTING LIKE IT'S A BIG DEAL! YOU SHOULD BE HONORED TO BE IN THE SECOND PIRATE KING'S CREW FOR A MONTH YOU UNGRATEFUL BASTARD!"
Kai stopped Chris and gave her a rock which she grasped so hard that a crack formed on the surface. Kai glanced at Ray. "Now you owe me."
"I don't owe you shit!" shouted Ray getting in Kai's face.
"Yes you do!"
"No I don't!"
A dust cloud formed between them as "mighty" shouts of a fight between men were heard. The crew ignored them, already used to them fighting. Brook laughed in joy. "That brings back a lot of memories... Yohohoho!"
"Haha Yeah, Roronoa Zoro and Sanji would always fight." said Emerald with a chuckle. Calico appeared next to Emerald. "Did Roronoa Zoro win?"
They ignored him as Emerald asked a question. "Hey, Brook." Brook turned his attention to Emerald. "Do you have a log pose that we can have?"
The crew paid attention to their conversation. "What's a log pose?" asked Sora.
"Take a look at this." Emerald tossed the compass she usually used to Sora who caught it. The crew gathered around it. The compass was out of control, spinning around.
"The compass is spinning out of control! Is it broken?" commented Luna. Emerald shook her head.
"No, you see the Grand Line's magnetic fields are very different from the blues. Regular compasses don't work here but these log poses record the magnetic fields of islands and also leads you to the next." explained Emerald.
Brook laughed. "That's right Emerald-san. And yes I do have a log pose." He grabbed his crown and pulled it off and grabbed a weird looking compass. He then handed it to Emerald. Emerald took it. "Thanks!"
"Hey, Brook. I've been wondering this and if you don't mind me asking but did you guys disband after the second pirate king Luffy's death?" asked Chris, talking fast. "You don't have to answer if it's too personal.
Brook looked up to the sky. "Yes and no. We all are still in touch and we all are still friends. Our adventure has ended but our friendship hasn't." He chuckled. "I still remember how many times Zoro has been asked to a Warlord after becoming the best swordsman in the world or how many marines have hunted Robin down after she found out the truth about the 100 year void. When Luffy-san died... we merely split up to prevent us all from someday being captured..."
Chris blinked before nodding. "Oh I see! Great to hear that the Straw Hat pirates are still on the roster!"
Ray punched Kai in the face before stretching. "I feel better now! Okay, guys! Let's continue our adventure!" Ray ran toward the boat before stopping. He waved. "Oh yeah! Thanks Brook!" The crew ran toward the ship and jumped on except for Echo. Ray cocked his head to the side. "Hey, Echo! What are you doing? Hurry up!"
Echo made an "Eh" sound. "What are YOU talking about!"
"We're going on our next adventure! Hurry up!"
"I'm not part of your crew!"
"Really?"
"Yeah!"
"Oh come on! You know you want to be part of my crew!"
"No I don't!"
"Well you're on a cliff and in the Grand Line. Where are you even going to go?"
"I- um... Damn it! I have no where to go..."
"Yeah! And who knows what other pirates will come here. So come with us or just rot away with Brook!"
"ESCUSE ME!" shouted Brook in an offended tone.
Echo looked at Brook and shivered. "Okay! I'm coming!"
"WAIT A SECOND! DID YOU JUST SHIVER AT ME!?"
The sails unfurled as the ship sailed to their next destination. The crew waved as they shouted "Thanks!" and "Good bye!" Brook smiled as he looked at Laboon who was shedding tears as he watched the ship leave. He then looked down on 6 wanted posters. "Ray-san and Emerald-san seem to have become pirates and I think they will go pretty far." Brook said to himself before chuckling. "I mean you did train and teach them like you left your soul in them, Luffy-san..."
