Before they knew it, the Rocks Pirates had been sailing on the sea for a week.
During this week, the entire sea seemed calm.
Both the navy and the pirates fell into an eerie calm, which made everyone feel a little anxious.
The Conqueror and the Caesar, the two ships were sailing side by side, one in front of the other, on the vast sea.
Rocks and Moria were sitting on the side of the boat fishing together.
"Locks, is there fog on the sea?"
Moria looked around, then looked down at Rocks and asked.
When Rocks heard Moria's words, he turned his head and looked.
Before we knew it, white fog had enveloped the entire sea area, and was becoming thicker and thicker.
"Have some torches lighted aboard the boats."
"We may have entered the Devil's Triangle."
Rocks looked at the increasingly thick fog with a slightly serious tone.
"Devil's Triangle?"
Hearing this name, Moria immediately let out a low cry.
After all, the Devil's Triangle, even he, who has lived in the West Sea for many years, has heard of its horror.
The rich smell that lingers all year round can easily make people lose their way and then be trapped in that sea forever.
"I didn't expect to come to this sea area! Rocks, what should we do next?"
Moria threw the fishing rod aside and asked in a serious tone.
"Don't be nervous. Let the Caesar follow our ship closely. Let the sailors turn on all the lights on the ship and follow my command."
Rocks gave Moria an order, then quickly activated his ability and floated to the watchtower.
He used all his strength to spread out his Observation Haki, hoping to find a way out by relying on his extremely wide range of Observation Haki.
Moria looked at Rocks who was taking action, and without further delay, he quickly carried out Rocks' orders.
Soon, the boat became extremely noisy.
The sailors worked together to stabilize the sails and light all the lights on the ship.
On the Caesar, Ereda was looking solemnly at the thick fog that made one unable to see one's hand in front of one's face.
"Everyone, cheer up and keep up with the Conqueror ahead. Don't fall behind!"
After giving instructions to all the sailors on board, Erida walked to the bow.
"Is this the Devil's Triangle? It's really scary. The magnetic field is so chaotic, coupled with this thick fog, if you're not careful, you might get lost here forever."
"Oh, it seems we have entered a strange sea area."
Sasaki came out of the cabin panting and greeted Erida.
"Well, we have entered the Devil's Triangle."
Erida chuckled and responded to Sasaki.
After hearing Erida's words, he, who was still a little dazed and half asleep, suddenly lost all sleepiness.
"What did you say! The Devil's Triangle!"
Sasaki yelled in disbelief and rushed over to grab Erida's shoulders.
"Asshole! How could you enter this damn sea? Do you know how many ships disappear here every year?"
As he spoke, a shabby ship slowly floated towards them from a distance.
"Gudong"
Sasaki opened his eyes wide, looked at the wreckage ship getting closer and closer, and swallowed.
"Erida, do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?"
I don’t know what he saw, but Sasaki asked Erida with a slightly trembling voice.
"Ghost? Oh, shouldn't you have seen it before? Are you still afraid of it?"
Ereda chuckled and patted Sasaki's shoulder.
"No, it's not a ghost created by a person with special abilities. It's a real ghost that moves, drinks coffee, waves and says hello, a skeleton ghost!"
Sasaki interrupted Erida's words directly and pushed Erida's head towards the broken ship with trembling hands.
A skull wearing a black suit, a top hat, holding a cup of steaming coffee in his hand, was looking at them blankly.
"Gudong"
Ereda also swallowed.
"Well, um, are we dazzled?" Erida asked Sasaki with difficulty.
"No, no, I, we are not dazzled. That, is indeed a moving skeleton!"
"What the hell! What the hell!"
In contrast to the panic and disbelief of Erida and Sasaki, Rocks was looking at the skeleton with a strange look.
"Is this, that Brooke?"
“Seeing it in real life, it does feel a bit thorny!”
Rocks whispered.
"Hehehe! This is really surprising! There are actually moving skeletons! This is really interesting!"
Moriah looked at the skeleton with a smile and said with interest.
"Huh?! A skeleton that can move!"
"Ah! How terrible!"
Ruth walked out of the cabin, looked at the skeleton, then looked at Rocks, then screamed, exerted force on her feet, jumped high, and threw herself into Rocks' arms.
Rocks looked at Ruth in his arms with a dark face.
Slowly, everyone from the Rocks Pirates walked out of the cabin and came to the deck.
"Haha! Are there still skeletons in this world? This is really too rare!"
Barrett looked at the skeleton man and said with a laugh.
"Hmm, people from the Skeleton Tribe? This is indeed the first time I've seen one. I really want to study how they stay alive."
Vegapunk scratched his chin with his right hand.
"Ah~ How scary! Vegapunk-chan!"
Bako screamed and rushed towards Vegapunk.
"Stop it, Bakoer!"
Vegapunk was quick to act and pressed down on Bakel's forehead to prevent her from succeeding.
"Damn it~"
"Vegapunk-chan! You're so uncute!"
Bako puffed her mouth angrily and kept waving her arms, trying to break free from Vegapunk's grasp and throw herself into his arms.
Enel looked at the two people who were playing tricks and decisively moved away.
"Humph! Women are such troublesome creatures."
He thought silently in his heart.
"Roar, what a strange species. I wonder if they can communicate."
A pair of white feathers stretched out from behind Lafitte, flapping their wings and flying into the air.
The skeleton man on the broken ship looked around at Rocks' people with empty eyes.
"Yohoho, everyone, nice to meet you. I'm Brook, also known as Nose Song, a skeleton without a body!"
Brooke bowed politely to everyone and introduced himself.
"Ah! By the way, that beautiful long-legged lady, can I see your panties, please? I don't have eyes."
"Yo-ho, yo-ho-ho!"
Brooke laughed.
He didn't feel at all that the person in front of him was a real person.
He felt that the person who appeared before him was just like the mirage he had encountered before.
After all, he had been drifting alone in this sea for decades.
Hearing Brooke's rude words, Ruth's face suddenly became angry.
However, he looked up at Rocks.
"Locks, look, that skeleton is teasing me! Go teach him a lesson!"
“… … ..”
Rocks glanced speechlessly at Ruth who was pretending to be a shy little woman.
"Buzz!"
An extremely powerful aura instantly burst out from Rocks' body, dispersing the thick fog around him.
"Brooke? I'm Rocks. Do you want to sit on my boat for a while?"
