[Chapter Size: 2200 Words.]

Third Person POV

Thriller Bark, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

"Hm?!" Brook finally stood up.

"What a sight... you meet your old friend and flee at the first chance? I expected more from you, my musician." Luffy approached Brook at that moment.

"..." Brook was speechless, although terrified of returning to Moria's domain, he heard Luffy's words and looked towards Laboon who showed confusion looking at him.

"I guess you're right..." He admitted, realizing he had let his fears take over. "I'm sorry, old friend..." He said as he approached Laboon.

"Let's move on, don't worry, because nothing will happen to you." Luffy assured.

Luffy continued with his group into the forest of Thriller Bark, with a new member of the group, with a cornered Cerberus along with them, or at least a copy of the real one, who was downcast, while Yamato rode it like a horse, kicking its skin with her feet.

"Go, go, Cerberus!!! Hahaha!" She screamed joyfully, having a happy, childish moment. "Go ahead!!!" She said, raising her arm, while the animal could only lower its head being intimidated by it, after all there was a small dog walking beside him, which he was very afraid of.

WOOOLFF!!

WOOOLFF!!

WOOOLFF!!

WOOOLFF!!

Chouchou started to wake up while Cerberus was in despair, seeing that Chouchou was commanding him to obey Yamato, he had no choice but to run as Yamato shouted, starting to run.

"Well done, Cerberus!!" Yamato laughed with that, moving forward. Robin was sitting with Uta also on the back of the animal, while the girl sang to dispel the fear of the place.

Luffy saw them running, and continued leading the rest of the group, passing through the eerie forest and coming out of it, while finding Cerberus and the others stopped at a sort of local cemetery.

"Luffy!!! Can this place get any worse?!" Uta complained on the back of the animal.

"Fufufu. This place is quite unique." Robin commented.

"It was so cool the run, we had to stop because of Uta..." Yamato complained, not caring at all about the sight of a cemetery.

"This cemetery..." Luffy walked past Cerberus and ignored his crewmembers murmuring fearfully about the place.

Luffy went up to one of the graves while his crew watched him. Suddenly, a constant moaning sound appeared in the place.

Then from between the grave and Luffy, a hand emerged from the ground, rising with a head appearing, proving to be an undead. Meanwhile, the more fearful ones were frightened by it.

"AHHHHH!!!"

"WHAT IS THAT!!!???"

"IT'S A ZOMBIE!!"

"Seriously, what is a zombie? Was he sleeping under the ground?"

"How do you not know what a zombie is!?"

The zombie stared at the companions in despair and then turned his attention to Luffy in front of him, studying him with crossed arms, while a growling sound came from him, but he was surprised that Luffy was not afraid.

This could be said of Yamato too, who approached with Cerberus and looked alongside Luffy. "Is this one?!" He murmured uncertainly... "A sick old man?" he commented as everyone made a face.

"It's a zombie!" Almost everyone exclaimed at the same time.

"Hahahaha that was funny..." Luffy laughed and looked at the zombie. "Now Mr. Zombie... Go back to Earth," he said, and before the man with rotting flesh could react, Luffy punched him in the face, making his growl turn into a scream of surprise.

"AHHHHHH!!!" He screamed, as the punch was so strong that it exploded the Earth with a light around.

BOOOOOMMMMMM!!

The ground beneath that poor soul exploded with such force that all the terrain around began to crack and explode, devastating the entire cemetery, while the sound exploded once more throughout Moria's ship island, the earth rose and all the zombies who were hiding inside were surprised as they flew with the force of the punch that Luffy had just made.

"AHHHHH!!!"

"WHO WOKE ME UP LIKE THIS!!"

"HELP, I'M FLYING, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FLY!!!"

"You're a zombie! You can't get hurt!"

"You too!"

They exclaimed in the air, while all of the crew looked at it, opening their mouths with their eyes wide open, wondering why Luffy had done something like that.

Luffy, in the middle of all that destruction with just one of his punches, ended up scratching the back of his head

and looking at his crew.

"I think I overdid it," he commented as everyone made faces.

"You think you overdid it!?" Everyone shouted. And Luffy laughed at that. While Brook looked shocked at it.

Neither of them liked having acted that way. It was humiliating, especially in front of their own rival. So, they wanted to move forward to see who was the user controlling them.

As they continued walking, they finally reached the center of the ship island but couldn't help noticing the zombies watching them from the forest, looking at them and murmuring to each other.

"These zombies are so weird," Nojiko commented, always believing the stories that they were bloodthirsty beings, but they seemed like ordinary people, besides the rotting flesh.

"They are definitely experiments of some sort. All their bodies and limbs are stitched together, even this dog here," Robin commented, pointing to the fake Cerberus, who was now behaving like a common dog at that moment, intimidated.

"Don't talk like that, he's a great mount," Yamato exclaimed with a smile on her face, making them contradict themselves, not knowing if that was a compliment or an offense.

"We've finally arrived," Luffy suddenly interrupted their conversation as they reached a huge castle.

"Is this where the Shichibukai lives?" Zoro asked.

"This guy really likes to live in a horror setting," Hugo said.

Luffy didn't respond to their conversation and started walking up to the huge door which, as he approached, opened with a zombie dressed as a butler appearing. He looked a bit strange at that group.

"How may I assist you?" he spoke with a cracked voice.

"I would like to speak with Moria. Tell him I am here waiting," Luffy spoke calmly, while the members of his crew looked somewhat stunned. After all, he didn't come here to defeat the Shichibukai, Luffy seemed so polite.

Moria, who was busy, was called. "Lord Moria, there's a group of people wanting to see you outside the castle..." The zombie butler spoke, making Moria look at him surprised.

"A crowd of people?" He asked, bewildered, as no one usually visited him.

"Let's see what they want," he said as he approached, walking down the hallway. He ended up finding Perona walking after a restless sleep caused by two explosions, looking at Moria.

"Moria-sama, did something happen? What were those explosions?" she asked.

"I don't know, but it seems we have visitors. I'm going to see who it is," he commented as he approached the door and opened it, seeing a group of more than 20 people, including all kinds of species, with animals. He was a bit surprised by this.

"Who are you?" he immediately asked.

"I'm Monkey D. Luffy," Luffy said with a smile, as everyone looked on, wondering what their captain would do this time.

"Monkey D. Luffy?" Moria exclaimed, remembering this man who not only defeated Crocodile in Alabasta but also remembered very well the meeting he had at Marineford with Luffy receiving a bounty of 750,000,000, which was shortly after defeating one of the three calamities and Doflamingo in Jaya. He became a bit cautious about this, because this pirate did not seem like someone he could handle, since he had already defeated 3 Shichibukai.

"What do you want?" Moria asked cautiously.

Luffy just smiled with his eyes closed. "I came here to defeat you," he simply said and before Moria could react or Perona next to him, also stunned by what she heard, Luffy advanced.

A moment later he hit Moria with a punch right in his face, making the Shichibukai fly back against his castle.
