Steve's POV
"One of the Warlords!"
"What's a guy like that doing in a place like this?" Franky asked.
Luffy told the man that since we were looking for the person who took Brook's shadow we'd help him out since it was the same guy.
"We better get moving and find Moriah then." Rose said.
We kept walking to the mansion that Nami and the others were at when it started raining.
"The fog is clearing."
"Is that a flag?" Luffy said looking up at the mansion.
"No it's a sail." The old man said coming back.
"You're still here!"
The man explained that Thriller Bark was actually Moriah's ship. We kept walking till we got to the gate of the mansion.
"Let's head in."
The lock on the door had already been broken by the time we arrived at the front door so we just let ourselves in and found the main room had been trashed.
"It's like a tornado came through here." I observed.
Luffy called out for Moriah but he got no response.
"So you know the name of our master."
"There's a pig growing out of the wall." Luffy gasped.
The pig talked again "Let's welcome our guests!"
Everything in the room came alive and was revealed to be a zombie.
"Whip Crush!" I slammed whips into a painting zombie that was trying to attack us.
Robin spun a zombie around and Franky banged two to the zombie's heads together.
"Penguin!" I looked over and saw Lil use one of those pod things and a penguin appeared, and the zombies just stared at it. They the bird opened its mouth to reveal sharp teeth that it used to bite the zombies and beat them up.
Those things are pretty powerful.
After a few minutes we had cleared the room of zombies. Lil's penguin turned to snow and crumbled.
"What happened to it?" Rose asked.
"Well they aren't real." Lil said "They only last a few minutes before they fade away. It's always sad when that happens."
We took the pig off the wall and asked him some questions.
"Those three, they're asleep in the bedroom"
"No they ain't."
"I'm serious just go look." He said.
"Where's the cook?" Zoro asked.
"He was here a second ago?"
I could hear the zombies snickering.
"It's Sanji so he'll be fine." Luffy said.
"Let's take the pig as a guide" Franky suggested.
The zombies tried to convince us to leave and limit our casualties.
"Quit talking." Luffy told them "If anything happens to my friends I'll come back here and beat you up more. Sanji will be fine let's go."
We headed up the stairs and deeper into the mansion. We entered out into a hallway and slowly made our way down it.
"I haven't seen a sign of them?" I said.
"What did you do stupid pig?" Luffy said giving the monster a knuckle sandwich.
"We haven't even heard them scream." Robin pointed out "Perhaps they were strangled?"
"Can you not be so ominous Mama?" Lil said.
"You two are awfully quiet back there." I said turning to Rose and Zoro, who weren't there.
"They disappeared too." Luffy said.
"That's not good." Lil said.
"Don't worry about it" I told her "they probably went off by themselves is all. Rose probably went with Zoro to make sure he doesn't get lost."
We walked further into the hall way when there was a clinking noise from behind us.
"What are you wearing?!" I yelled at Luffy.
"Suit of armor."
"Yeah I can see that!"
"Then why'd you ask?"
"He meant why you are wearing the armor stupid!" Franky yelled.
"Because when a man sees a suit of armor on the ground he has to wear it. Did you make and iron heart for your iron body?" Luffy said.
"Oh of course I was so foolish." Franky said.
"That is not true!" I added.
"We've reached the end of the hall." Robin called.
"Anyone else there?" I asked her.
"No. It looks more like an arena."
Franky suddenly jumped back as someone dropped from the celling to stab him. The man was wearing full armor but still had spears sticking out of the chest.
"It must be a zombie." I said.
"Strong Right!" Franky ran up and punched the zombie in the gut.
The knight slashed forward and shattered the wall.
"Not much better than a regular swordsman." Franky said flipping his hand open "Weapons Left!"
The zombie got blasted but got right back up and slashed through Franky.
"Franky!"
"I won't get cut by something weak like that." Franky picked up the zombie and threw him across the room.
"It's getting up again!" Lil called out.
"He's way stronger than the ones before." Franky said.
That pig started yelling from far away that we now had to face something called general zombies.
"There's no way you can win! Wall Zombie!"
The way back to the hallway got closed off by a strange zombie creature.
"We're trapped."
We looked forward but the way was blocked by those general zombies the pig spoke of.
"This is gonna be tough."
"If we can escape the hall we can get out into the courtyard." Robin suggested.
"All right then we'll meet up at the back of the hall." I told them "Lil stay with your mother."
"Got it!"
The five of us split up and went to break through the crowd.
"Whip Hurricane!" I busted my way through a crowd of zombie.
"Shuriken Shower!"
I jumped back as the place I had been standing was pelted by razors. I jumped back again as a ninja flew out of the shadows and stabbed at me.
"Chain Blade!" The female moved her wrist and threw a blade at me.
"Who the hell are you?" I said.
"I am Maka, A Ninja of the Seven Nights Clan."
I cracked my whip and the woman dodged the attack but I managed to nick her hair.
"You bastard! How dare you defile me like that?!"
All that over some strands hair, kinda like Rose.
"I'd love to stay but I have to keep moving."
"Steve!" I looked up and saw Robin swinging past and holding out her hand for me.
I jumped up, grabbed her hand and we swung over the zombies in our way.
"Where's Lil?"
"Over there." She said.
I saw Lil and Franky being carried over the zombies by Lil's fish-birds. We landed by the door and kept running.
"What about Luffy?" Robin said.
"That idiot is wearing that armor, so I can't make him out."
"We can't just stand around waiting for him." Franky said "Come on Strawhat!"
"Let me out of here jerks!"
We looked over to the edge of the bridge and a coffin was being pulled away by some chains.
"That voice?"
"That dumbass!" I yelled running after the coffin "What the hell is he doing?! We have to hurry!"
"I won't let you."
A monster of a creature lowered itself onto the bridge.
"A giant spider." Robin said.
"But it has the face of a monkey." I added.
"It's a spider monkey." Lil joked.
"It's me the famous spider monkey."
"Wait that's really your name?!" Lil yelled
There was a thunk from above and the coffin disappeared behind a wall.
"Luffy!"
"I'd relax because whatever we're planning for them you're going to experience it soon." The monkey said "I'm in front and the general zombies are behind you, there's no escape, after you four the whole crew will have been annihilated!"
"I see, they got captured and pulled behind the wall like Luffy." I said
"And next it will be you!"
"Lil got any of those fish left?" Franky said.
"I'm out of water to activate them because I had to use more fish to carry you before."
"You're the one that spun the web that trapped the Sunny aren't you?" Franky asked.
"All of your actions so far have been revealed by Mistress Perona's ghost network."
"We're blocked on all sides." Robin said.
"Leave it to me." Franky said "Here we go!" Franky pointed his hands at the ground "Coup de Vent!"
Franky broke the bridge with his air cannon and we started falling towards the courtyard.
"A little warning next time! What are we supposed to do?"
"Cien Fleur: Wings!"
The hands coming out of Robin's back molded into two large angelic wings. Robin was holding Franky and Lil and I were hanging onto his legs.
"You can fly?!"
"Just for five seconds." Robin said straining to keep us in the air.
"That too short!"
"It's plenty." Franky said shooting his hand at the nearby ledge and allowing us to swing forward as Robin's wings fell apart.
Frank slammed into the wall and Lil and I climbed over him to get to the ledge.
"What's that noise?" Lil asked.
We looked up and something was falling from the sky.
"That's someone falling from the sky." I said.
The person slammed into the ground and left a person shaped crater behind.
"What just fell?"
"Was that?"
"Could be?"
A web was quickly constructed in front of us.
"Somebody might have butted in but I can still catch you!" the spider laughed as he lifted his hands "Sticky Spider Net!"
"There are silk glands in his hands." Robin said "Seis Fleur: Slap!"
Robin's hands smacked the zombie's eye.
"Agh! You bitch!" the monkey covered his eyes and his hands got stuck to his face.
"I'm all set step aside." Franky said marching out.
"What the heck are those?"
"Steel Nunchuk shoved into a stone pillar." Franky swung the weapon at the monkey and slammed it into his head "Heavy Nunchuk!"
I jumped in to aid Franky "Whip Jetstream!" I slammed my coiled whips into the disoriented zombie.
Franky and I attacked the Monkey with alternating attacks. After taking a severe beating the monkey shot silk to knock the Nunchuk out of Franky's hand.
"I've got you now!"
"Weapons Left." Franky blasted the ape in the face.
"Hmph!"
I turned around to see Robin and Lil tied up in a spider web.
"Robin! Lil!"
There were a bunch of spider-mice crawling around them.
"I got caught off guard." "Papa!"
"There were more spiders?" Franky asked as the two us got shot in the back.
The spiders went into a speech about how they had caught our friends and now us too.
"YoHoHoHo, Yohoho." Someone was singing a song.
"What's that?"
This song sounds familiar…
"YoHoHoHo! So, you came to the island despite my warning." Brook said walking up.
"How did you get here?" Robin asked him.
"I jumped. Since you came all this way I guess I should tell you what I know about this island."
"Hey Skeleton!" The monkey yelled.
"Three Verse Humming." Brook began the put his sword back into his cane "Arrow Notch Slash!"
The spider monkey was cut in two despite showing no injury before that.
His skills are incredible!
"He's a zombie!" Franky yelled "Cutting won't work!"
"Don't worry I already dealt with it."
"I've seen you before…" The monkey said.
"Zombies do have weaknesses though." Brook told the ape.
The monkey started yelling as a black shadow flew out of his mouth.
What's happening to it?
"What is that?"
"That would be the 'soul' of the zombie." Brook explained "Please return to your master."
"What did you do to him?" I asked.
"I purified him."
Franky breathed fire to break up the web trapping us.
"Luffy and the others were kidnapped." I said getting out of the web "You know a lot about this island Brook care to give us a hand."
"Where should I start? If they've already been caught it probably too late."
"What are you talking about?!"
"There is no need to yell, you'll hurt my ears not that I have any. YoHoHoHo!"
"I'm gonna kill you!"
"He's already dead."
Brook explained that since his rudder was broken he had only been able to drift around in the Devil Sea.
"I was lured onto Thriller Bark just like you. " Brook went on to explain that he watched a big man pull a man's shadow off the floor and cut it off.
"He cut off a shadow?" Franky asked
"I would doubt it to had I not seen it with my own eyes. But I don't have eyes. YoHoHoHo!"
"Knock it off!" Franky and I yelled.
"You can hit him now." Robin told me.
Brook said that when the shadow was placed into a motionless zombie the creature came to life.
"The man who took the shadows is the Warlord Gekko Moriah."
"So he can put the shadows into a corpse and make a zombie?" Lil said.
"And with Hogback as his subordinate he can make powerful zombies."
"That famous doctor is helping a pirate?" Robin said.
"The power and skills of the shadow's master become the power and skill of the zombie as can some of the personality traits."
"Wait a second." I said "That's why the Ninja zombie had a flipped out when I clipped her hair. Rose would have reacted the same way; she even used moves like her's."
"Then I'd say her shadow is in that zombie." Brook said.
"Do you have some kind of plan?" I asked the collection of bones.
"Yes, please listen…" and Brook started to tell us his story, and the reason he needed his shadow back.
Wyper's POV
I looked out the window of the crow's nest and saw a horde of half dead people showed up at the ship. I immediately went out to the railing and pointed my bazooka at them.
"Who the hell are you?!"
They just ignored me and tried to come aboard.
"Wide Burst!"
The blast from the cannonball blew a bunch of them away.
"Back off assholes!"
No matter how many I blasted they just kept coming.
Where the hell are they marching from?
"Negative Hollow!"
I looked down and a ghost passed though me.
"I should just shrivel up and die."
I fell off the mast and onto the deck.
"He has wings!" A girl with pink hair came up to me "Tie him up, he's cute I want to keep him."
