Chapter 282: Lucky 7

Back in the mansion… Nami, Usopp, Chopper and Ino found the lab. Ino, Nami and Usopp were concerned with the find, but Chopper was extremely happy.

"What is he doing?" asked Nami.

"I don't know…" said Ino.

They watched as Doctor Hogback was given spaghetti soup that was dumped all over the operating table that Doctor Hogback was working.

However all of them could see that a zombie was on the table, what they heard Doctor Hogback say it was almost complete.

"We're about to how he creates the zombies." Said Nami.

"He was the one who created the zombies after all…" said Ino.

"But how…" said Chopper, "Modern medicine can only go so far…"

"I don't know…" said Ino, "But if we keep watching I'm sure we can find out."

They heard a certain laugh, the "Yo ho ho" laugh

"If you want to see it why don't you go in." said the person behind them.

Suddenly the door was cut down and they were forced into the lab.

"You! How did you get in here!" demanded Doctor Hogback.

However the group was more concerned with other things.

"Was that Brook?" asked Nami.

"No!" said Chopper, "He wasn't skeleton, he had skin."

"Oh crap he saw us!" yelled Usopp.

"What did I tell you!" yelled Doctor Hogback, "That you can't see my laboratory!"

"We didn't see anything!" yelled Usopp, "Especially not a unfinished zombie!"

"Shut up…" muttered Usopp.

"It doesn't matter what secrets you saw, because it's almost time for the midnight hunt." Said Doctor Hogback, "Any intruders on the island will be captured."

In the graveyard, the zombies were uncovered by the inveigle thing, while else on the island all of the ghosts converged onto one person.

While this was happening it started raining on Luffy's group.

"Damn it!" yelled Kyubi.

"What?" asked Naruto.

"I totally for to make a Thriller joke back there… I had the perfect set up… damn it!" yelled Kyubi.

"Okay…" said Naruto.

"Are you okay?" asked Fu.

"I'm fine!" said Naruto.

"You don't have to hide me… I'm sure she figured it out…" said Kyubi.

As the rain fell some of the fog cleared.

"Hey I think I see a flag!" said Luffy.

"Hey you're right! I see it too." Said Naruto, "It's really big."

The fog cleared enough that they saw it, it wasn't a flag but a gigantic sail.

Before Fu could explain the old man made his presence known.

"That's right!" said the old man.

"You're still here?" asked the Straw Hats.

"Um… I could have done the explosion you know…" said Fu.

The old man paid no attention.

"It's so gigantic you can't even see the whole thing. but thriller Bark is actually the world's largest pirate, so big it even has a village on it." Said the old man, "That thing you see behind the mansion is the mast, that is where Gecko Moria is…"

After getting that info they headed inside the mansion.

Back in the Laboratory…

Since they were found it, it was time.

"You're the one making the zombies aren't you!" yelled Ino.

"She's right, you are behind it! You've been lying abort researching the zombies!" Said Nami.

"Oh what evidence do you have." Said Doctor Hogback.

"I saw her obituary. Victoria Cindry died 10 years ago!" yelled Nami.

"You went into the room!" yelled Doctor Hogback.

"You really thought we wouldn't end up there?" asked Ino.

Doctor Hogback however was cornered with other things.

'Cindry! Samurai Ryuma! Send them to a place of darkness that light can't penetrate!" yelled Doctor Hogback.

That was when the person who laughed like Brook showed up. Of course he was zombie.

"My you're very attractive… very beautiful." Said the zombie looking at Nami, "Can I take a peak at your underwear?"

"No way!" yelled Nami then she realized something, "He's acting like him…"

Doctor Hogback began to laugh.

"He's not like the zombies you've already encountered, he's a very special zombie called a general zombie, his body harkens back to Wano Country in the New World where it's legend that he once killed a dragon. You have no place to run."

Ryuma ran over to them with his sword out,

"What?" asked Ino.

"Weren't we attacked?" asked /Nami.

However Ryuma was more interested in food asking Cindry to make a path for him to the pantry.

"Nothing happened." Said Nami.

"Let's run for it!" yelled Usopp.

As they ran away suddenly they felt to the attack.

Turns out one of Ryuma's attacks is so skilled that his opponents don't even realize that they were injured until after he walked three steps.

Indeed he was that powerful.

Back with Luffy's group. Fu looked at Naruto.

"Hey! I was wondering do you crew mates know?" asked Fu.

Naruto blinked then realized what she was talking about.

"OF course they do!" said Naruto, "In fact Luffy's my older brother, they don't care I have a demon in me as well as Gaara."

"Really?" asked Fu then she cheered, "Then I don't have to explain very much who Chomei is!"

"Wait you're finally going to explain?" asked Luffy.

"Chomei is the Nanabi!" said Fu.

"Wait then…" said Zoro.

"I'm a Jinchuriki!" said Fu, "And Chomei is the Biju sealed in me!"

"Wait if you have a Biju and you have it's shadow what's the problem?" asked Sanji.

"Well… it's the fact Chomei takes over my body by default… thanks to my shadow being stolen our role have been reversed, she's in control over my body and I'm the one locked in." said Fu, "But since we're good friends we let's me take back control every time I wake up."

"Oh man… I'd hate for that to happen." Said Naruto.

"Yeah…" said Fu.

They broke into the mansion but breaking off the door handle, after exploding a bit they ended up in a dinning.

"Hello is anyone here!" yelled Luffy.

"Hey Gecko Moria! You're here!" yelled Naruto.

However since the dinning room was mess from earlier they knew something happened.

"Do you think they're okay?" asked Kiba.

"I hope so." Said Hinata.

"This room is filled with Zombies so be on your guard!" said Fu, she suddenly had a tail with 6 wings.

"Whoa! You have wings?" asked Luffy.

"Yeah, 6 of Chomei's tails are wings." Said Fu.

"Tell him we can fly too!" said Chomei.

"Oh and I can fly with them." Said Fu.

"So cool!" yelled Luffy, "You have to join my crew."

"I'll think about it!" said Fu.

They heard the pig head zombie laughing.

"You know the truth about us and our master yet not scared." Said the pig head zombie.

"There's a pig growing out the wall." Said Luffy.

"Luffy… I don't think that's it." Said Isaribi.

"Definitely not it…" said Sakura.

"Welcome guests!" yelled the zombies showing up.

Of course a fight broke out. With the zombies getting hit badly via cuts, punches, smashing, kicks, sand, water, arms, chi and sparkles.

Oh and the sparkles came form Fu, she had the ability to shoot out a sparkling substance form her mouth.

"What is that stuff?" asked Naruto.

"I don't think I want to know…" said Kiba.

"Yeah…" said Fu, "I don't question it either."

"Something's wrong…" said Gaara.

That was when they noticed that Hinata and Sanji were missing.

"Oh no! Hinata!" yelled Naruto, "Where are you."

Fu stared at Naruto.

"Naruto and Hinata are close." Said Sakura.

"I see…" said Fu.

"So you better not try to break them apart just because both of you are Jinchuriki, they've known each other since childhood." Said Sakura.

"Okay…" said Fu with a giant sweat drop.

"She's a shipper they're imposable to negotiate with…" said Chomei, "Unless they're an open shipper but their rare and I don't think she is one."

Fu nodded.

"We have to look for them! Said Naruto.

"Maybe they're in the same place as Nami and the others…" said Sakura.

"Oh maybe Sanji ran off to find Nami on his own and Hinata followed to persuade him not to." Said Isaribi.

"That doesn't sound like Hinata…" said Naruto.

"But that does sound like the idiot." Said Zoro.

However they heard the zombies trying not to laugh.

"You did something to Hinata didn't you!" yelled Naruto.

Sakura punched him in the head.

"Calm down and think things through…" said Sakura.

"Either way have to keep moving." Said Robin.

"This is really bad if they were taken though…" said Fu, "I just hope one of them had gotten away…"

The Pig Zombie which was knocked down was trying to tell them things. But the crew didn't listen.

"Let's least take the pig as a guide." Said Zoro.

What"! yelled the pig zombie.

The other zombies in the room began to tell them things like to lose hope about Moria.

However the one that stuck with everyone was this one.

One by one your friend will disappear and you will regret coming here. Under the warlord Gecko none of you will survive." Said the zombie.

"Will you shut up!" yelled Luffy, "If anything happen to my crew, I'll blast this island until this nothing left!"

"And if anything happened to Hinata! I will sweat I will do far worse." Said Naruto.

"Amazing…" thought Fu.

"They may seem like goof balls, but they're a lot stronger than they look… Naruto seems like a strong person…" said Chomei.

Fu nodded.

"Naruto if it will help you I can sense outside the mansion right now there is a zombie dance party going on that seems like a rip of Thriller." Said Kyubi.

"What?" asked Naruto.

Indeed there was a zombie dance party going on outside to a sound called "Zombie Night"… but that wasn't important.

And unfortunately for the crew things were going to get worse before they would get better…

Even if they had another Jinchuriki on their side.

Next Time: Things get worse for the straw hats when they encounter more zombies... as crewmembers slowly disappear what will happen? Find out next time!
