One Piece and Navy King

Chapter 17 The Secret of Zombies



Unable to bear it any longer, Franky finally got what he wanted and beat the inconspicuous skeleton, and Brooke finally calmed down and continued to talk about his past experiences.

"After losing my shadow, I luckily woke up early and returned to the island again to cause a scene, but the zombies were more terrifying than I imagined. Although most zombies are not very powerful, they cannot be killed at all, even if they are killed. The body can be repaired even after being destroyed. When I was chased by zombies and had no way out, I happened to overhear the conversation between two zombies and learned the secret that zombies can be purified by salt."

"Zombies will reveal their weaknesses to you"

This is illogical. How could a zombie be so stupid and reveal its weakness? When passing by the cemetery, the zombies there are quite intelligent, no different from ordinary humans.

"Well, Mr. Yi Xing, you are worrying too much. Ordinary zombies don't know the weakness of being purified by eating salt. This secret cannot be disclosed to these little minions. At that time, I was desperate and lay on the ground to rest. I was probably passing by. The zombies probably regarded me as the bones left by the dead, and they didn’t shy away from me in their conversations. Right next to me, they happened to talk about their companions eating salted fish and being purified, but they didn’t directly reveal that the zombies’ weakness was salt. , I only learned the truth after repeated confirmations.”

Zombies will be purified after eating salted fish. This guy wouldn't carry salted fish around to feed the zombies, right? Imagining Brooke stuffing a salted fish into the zombie's belly, this scene feels extremely weird no matter how you think about it.

"How did you determine that salt is a zombie's weakness?"

What happened just now that Brooke purified a large number of zombies without saying a word happened right in front of him, and he couldn't believe it.

"In order to confirm the weakness of zombies, I once fed salted fish to zombies. The zombies that ate salted fish were purified as the two zombies said, but the zombies that were fed ordinary fish had no reaction at all. At that time, I had doubts, and later I met Hogubak, one of the three weirdos under Moria, in the front courtyard. In order to be sure of the final result, I tried to feed his maid salt. Hogbak, who was in a hurry at that time, said He told the maid Hindley not to eat salt otherwise she would be purified. This is also the ironclad evidence that I finally confirmed that salt is the weakness of zombies."

"What's going on with the shadow?"

There are many victims hiding in the forest after losing their shadows on this island. In the cemetery outside the house, Luffy was entrusted by the seriously injured old man to help them get their shadows back.

After calming down his excitement, Brooke continued, "The so-called shadow is like a person's second soul. It will follow the owner's actions at any time. Originally, a person's shadow is from birth to death. It will not be separated from others, and the person who took it away and used it is the current king Shichibukai Shadow Fruit ability user, the great pirate Moonlight Moria who has the ability to control shadows."

"Another Devil Fruit"

This is already the seventh devil fruit ability that Yi Xing knows. This fruit that can give others different abilities greatly aroused his interest.

"What will happen to those who lose their shadow?"

The group has long been curious about the fate of those who lose their shadow, especially Brooke's desperate attempt to find his shadow, which shows how serious the consequences of losing his shadow are.

"Since Moria has obtained your shadow, why not kill you directly or throw you into the sea. You also said just now that the person whose shadow is taken away will lose consciousness. At that time, you It can be said that you have no ability to resist, and it is very easy to get rid of you. Also, if you use several strong lights at the same time, wouldn't you be able to get multiple shadows to use at the same time?"

"Ah, yes, you got the point right. The shadow that was just cut off will not be completely separated from the main body. If the main body dies unexpectedly at this time, the shadow will disappear with it, and the zombies that were finally created will disappear again. Turning back into a corpse, everything is in vain in the end. Therefore, they cannot kill the master of the shadow immediately. They usually throw the captured strong man back on the ship or exile it to the sea, because the zombies made using the shadow are more powerful than the original body. It is powerful, so Moria never worries about being visited by the main body. As for why not one strong person can get more than two shadows at one time, maybe the fruit ability rules do not allow this, one person can only cut it off A shadow is an iron law. Hahahaha, Mr. Yi Xing is so imaginative, I have never thought of this problem. Of course, for this reason, criminals with high bounties have become their primary target. After all, those who can be rewarded by the government They must all be powerful and terrifying characters, and the zombies created with their shadows will be more powerful."

"No wonder they are targeting us. All of us are bounty criminals," Franky said to himself.

"A person's combat effectiveness depends on his combat skills and the strength of his body. A powerful body can exert stronger combat effectiveness. As long as the shadow with all the memories of the body is implanted into the body of a zombie with a more powerful body, it can exert The combat power far exceeds the original body.”

"In this way, the more powerful the bounty criminals are, the more unruly they are, and making zombie soldiers perfectly solves this problem. Moria does not need to conquer those powerful and arrogant pirates, as long as he creates distant By having a body stronger than the main body and acquiring a powerful shadow, you can gain more powerful combat power, and the greatest advantage of a zombie is probably its absolute obedience."

After listening to Brooke's story, several people completely figured out all the problems.

"The most troublesome thing is that the genius surgeon Hogback has joined Moria's team. He is always able to continuously create powerful bodies. And with a powerful corpse, as long as he can get the shadow of a strong man, Moglia can Leah will be able to create more zombie minions. This is why there are always reports in newspapers about the theft of corpses of legendary powerful warriors from cemeteries around the world. Hogbark will use his medical skills to repair the corpses Strengthened for backup, there are many corpses of legendary warriors stored in Moria’s freezer.”

"I never imagined that the legendary doctor Hogback would actually become an accomplice of pirates in a place like this after he disappeared."

The newspaper once reported on the mysterious disappearance of a world-famous surgeon, and Robin accidentally read about it, which made her feel extremely regretful.

"In this way, although the zombies can move, they are not really resurrected. They just become puppets without freedom. Luffy and the others who are captured will also have their shadows taken away and thrown back to the ship."

"Don't worry, their safety is safe for the time being. It takes a certain amount of time for the zombies to break away from the main body. During this time, the main body cannot be killed. Generally, people who are deprived of their shadow will be comatose for two days. These two days are It is completely enough to separate the connection between the two. Usually until this time, the unconscious body will be thrown into the sea and drowned to avoid future troubles. So, please act according to my battle plan."

"What are you talking about? Listen to your instructions and stop joking, you brainless skeleton."

Franky felt very dissatisfied with Brooke's flat face always saying stupid things.

"Brainless skeleton, hehehe, it turns out you can also tell such bone jokes."

As expected, it's hard to change one's nature, and the problem of skeleton has happened again.

"I'll just listen to you, hurry up," Robin, whose patience was almost at its limit, said gloomily, with huge terror in her voice. She could hardly stand the skeleton's nonsense anymore.

"Now you return to the ship immediately, wake up your unconscious comrades, and then re-formulate a battle plan to retrieve the shadow." Brooke, who felt this terror, instantly became more serious.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Franky reluctantly agreed.

"However, before that, I have a question to ask you" Add "xinwu799" Weixin public account to see more
