212. Who should I face? Destiny or ancestor?

As contrary to the time when Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and others got depressed due to the Hollow ghosts, thanks to Perona's Devil fruit, this time though when the hollow ghosts came to go through their bodies, Luffy came forward and caught one of them with his bare hands.

"Aleee.. This looks cool. Oye.. Do you want to join the crew?"

"Just stop it already." Ussop, Sanji and Zoro shouted together seeing their Captain who was getting ridiculous with every passing minute.

The Hollow ghost which always had a smiling face was horrified. It never expected that someone would be able to catch it with bare hands. They always had the freedom to pass through someone and this would make the person very depressed, but today not only the Hollow ghost failed to pass through a man, it even got caught.

Ken seeing the Hollow ghosts knew that Perona must have sent her since their ship was caught. If she knew what was good for her, maybe she would be more smart about it. Their bounties have reached way too high and even in New World, their bounties had it's respect.

Seeing Luffy catching the Hollow ghost, Sanji and Zoro too caught them with their hands to see what the fuss was about. But not everybody had Armament Haki, and when one hollow ghost passed through the bodies of Nami and Franky, they understood that these Hollow ghosts were not easy to be trifled with.

Sanji, Zoro, and Luffy all started to beat up any Hollow ghost that came near them. Perona didn't show up in her ghost form. Maybe she got too scared seeing her main weapon get badly beaten up. Brook, who had seen the Hollow ghosts before, was dumbfounded. There were many people living here, and he had seen how these Hollow ghosts worked.

But this was the first time he saw somebody actually able to beat the Hollow ghosts. That made him realize that these people might be idiots like him, but definitely not as weak and cowardly as him.

"Maybe I should go and confront my destiny." Brook mumbled.

They went forward, and Sanji, out of nowhere, kicked in the open air with fire in his feet. There was a sudden cry of pain following that.

But then again, he could be taken care of by Impel Down itself. Impel Down was always on Ken's agenda, and he needed to visit there since he had read the news recently. Buggy had been caught and thus probably sent to Impel Down.

He might have taken his advice.

The crew moved forward while Brook gave a general overview of the place. By this time, Moria had come to realize that something was wrong since he had sent shadow bats to spy around. He sent Dr. Hogback and the zombie Ryuma.

The main castle was finally a little more visible thanks to small street lamps. As they came forward, they had to stop. It was because a huge zombie army was standing in front of them, and leading them were two people.

Dr. Hogback and Ryuma.

Oh, such a grand welcome." Franky said.

"I am very close to finishing my character. Maybe this will help me finish it." Zoro said.

"Oh, it will be fun." Nami said as she brought out her staff. She hated zombies, and thus she needed to get rid of them. Vivi and others had the same thought.

"You guys can have fun. I will just sit and watch. If the zombies aren't dying, put salt in their mouths. That will do the job. That is their weakness." Ken said.

"Salt? What a weird weakness." Ussop said. Ken had already told them to brig salt before, and now they understood. Salt was their weakness.
