The person is wearing a straw hat, and starts with the power of words!

Franky exclaimed incredulously, "Fifty years! Are you sure she's still waiting for you?"

“What right do I have to judge that Laboon has stopped waiting?” Brooke said softly. “If it still believes in our agreement and has been waiting all along, how lonely it must be now?”

"How heartbreaking it must be to feel betrayed by us while simultaneously waiting for us?"

"it......"

"You must be in even more pain than me!"

"I imagine it must be quite big by now. It would be wonderful to see it..."

Brooke's voice was soft, but everyone could hear the heavy longing in it.

“Crocas, so... did Labs send you to find us?” Brook looked at Crocas.

Crocus nodded, then shook his head.

Brooke was a little confused.

Laboon, who had been silently weeping, finally said in a trembling voice, "Brook, I...I am Laboon!"

Brooke: ? ? ?

Brooke:?っQ?;)っ

"Hey???"

Brook stared at Laboon in disbelief, unable to believe what he was saying, and instinctively looked at Crocus for confirmation.

Before Crocus could speak,

Suddenly, the emotionally charged Raab ran towards the edge of the boat and jumped off!

The Straw Hat Pirates' expressions changed!

"quick!"

"Lab can't swim!"

"Jump her up before she transforms!"

Crocus, Usopp, Sanji, and other non-Devil Fruit users rushed to the edge of the ship, but before they could jump into the sea, the ship suddenly rose up, and even through the black mist, a giant black shadow could be seen, pressing the entire ship against its head.

"hold head high--"

That familiar cry...

Brooke clung to the edge of the boat in disbelief, looking down, but all he saw was darkness.

【Light! 】

The soft light in the sky was enough to illuminate Brook, whose shadow had been cut off, and to reveal the outline of Laboon.

Brooke stared in shock at Laboon, whose size exceeded 10,000 meters. Although the size was seriously abnormal, it was indeed the Laboon he knew!

At this moment,

Brooke's skull eyes welled up with tears again as he shouted at Laboon—

"Labu!!!"

Brooke never imagined that Rab would come looking for them on his own!

"hold head high--"

Upon seeing the man and whale before them, the Straw Hat Pirates collectively burst into tears.

Franky burst into tears!

"Wow—this is so touching!"

"Fifty years of lonely waiting, this is a man's promise!"

"Ow—"

Sima Di was the only one smiling.

Brooke and Laboon's regrets can be fulfilled in his hands...

Is there anything more fulfilling than this?

After the reunion was completed,

Laboon also reverted to his original form and returned to the deck.

Brooke was so excited that he became somewhat incoherent.

"Rabb!"

"You've turned into a human? Is it a Devil Fruit ability?"

"It's so good to see you again!"

"I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"I......"

Looking at Brooke, who was completely different from his previous polite demeanor, Labour smiled broadly.

It's so great to see you again!

"Can you tell me what happened to you?"

Even though 50 years have passed, Brooke is still very angry when talking about it.

"When we sailed into the Devil's Triangle, we encountered a group of pirates, but they despicably coated their arrows and blades with poison, resulting in the death of our entire crew..."

"Nabrook, you..."

"I ate the Fruit of the Underworld, and my soul can return from the underworld to gain a second life."

"If it's resurrection, why a skeleton?" Crocus asked curiously.

When asked this, Brooke scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

"Ah... this black fog all over the sky. I don't know where the ship drifted to. When I found my own body... I was shocked."

Ok!

They were lost.

The Straw Hat Pirates instinctively looked at Zoro. If he ate that Devil Fruit, whether they could find the corpse or not was another matter entirely.

"Damn it! Do you believe I'll kill you all?" Zoro roared in fury.

He's clearly not bad with directions! — Anyway, he won't admit it.

"Oh, right!" Brooke slapped his forehead. "Lab, we have a gift for you."

Saying,

Brook suddenly flipped his own skull open, a fierce action that made everyone's hearts skip a beat!

Sima Di, however, noticed the seashell in Brooke's head and seemed to be deep in thought.

This is...

"It looks like a Sound Shell?" Usopp asked in surprise. "You guys have been to Skypiea too?"

"Sky Island? Does it really exist?" Brook asked in surprise. "This sound shell is an antique we bought to record music... It's currently recording the song that the Rumbar Pirates sang for Laboon at the end."

Raab's eyes widened!

What the Rumbar Pirates did in their final moments...

Is it really for recording a duet for yourself?

The Straw Hat Pirates were so moved that Crocodile saw them. It turned out that everyone in the Rumbar Pirates remembered their promise to Laboon!

Just as Brooke was about to press the button, Sima Di suddenly spoke up.

"Wait!"

Everyone looked on in confusion.

[Telepathy!]

Sima Di directly used the Mind Network to retrieve the memories he needed from Brooke's mind, and then pulled everyone into a fantasy world he had created through a mental link.

Everyone found that the dilapidated ship in front of them had been restored to its original state, and pirates were sitting or lying on the deck.

Brooke and Rab both stared wide-eyed at what was happening before them!

"Ban Biao!"

"Yankees!"

This is......

That day 50 years ago!

"To poison an arrowhead, what a dark and treacherous person!"

"Although I was prepared to die as a pirate, I'm still not resigned to it! There's something I want to do!"

"Labu..."

"Brook, your Yomi Yomi no Mi... can you live again?"
