Chapter 384: Funeral after 50 years
"Grandpa Colax, the lighthouse keeper of the Twin Straits," Usopp explained. "Rabu was entrusted to him for care."
"Really? Then why did he appear from Lab to his back?" Chopper asked.
"That's because..." Usopp gave Chopper a brief introduction.
Colex stood on Lab's back, staring at the people on the wall.
"Hey, old man, why are you looking at us like that? At least say something." Franky was frightened by being looked at and raised his left hand, "Weapon left hand..."
"When... when... when..."
An inexplicable BGM sounded, and Colax brought Franky.
"Stop it quickly, someone will die."
"Stop it Franky!"
Colax's voice and the voices of Chopper and Usopp trying to stop Franky sounded at the same time.
"Is he very powerful?" Franky looked at Usopp and Chopper who were blocking him, and then shouted to Colax, "Who do you think will die? Old man?"
"Me." said Colex.
“……” Those who knew the old man’s character were all speechless.
"You, you are..." At this time, Brook also noticed the Colax on Lab's back.
Colex's eyes widened.
"When... when... when..."
"Skeleton wow." Colex said with his eyes wide open.
"Woooa ...
"When asking someone's name, it's polite to give your own name first, isn't it?" Colax said, glaring at Brook who was rushing towards him.
"It's me, Blue..." Brooke was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"My name is Colax, the keeper of Gemini Cape Lighthouse, 72 years old, Gemini, AB blood type..." Colax and Brooke said at the same time.
"Your personality is still the same." Brooke ran to Colax and knelt down on the ground with a plop. "Mr. Colax, thank you for taking care of Lab for the past 50 years. It is so energetic, thanks to your care."
Looking at Brook kneeling on the ground and kowtow to him, Colax was stunned for a moment. After looking carefully, he suddenly reacted after seeing Brook's afro.
"You are... Brook! I am not dreaming, you are back?" Colex exclaimed with his eyes wide open.
"No, it's not..." Brooke raised his tearful skull head, "It was Lab who was summoned here."
"Hey, whale, the old man who's like a flower!" Luffy stood on the wall, waved his hand and called, then pulled the wall and bounced himself directly onto Laboo's back.
"Ah..." Although Lab was also crying, he still called out in response to Luffy.
"Good, good, Whale, you kept our promise." Luffy looked at the skull painting on Lab's head, smiled and nodded.
"Luffy, why are you here too?" Colex asked in surprise.
"Hahaha, we met this interesting skeleton while adventuring, and then he became our partner. We know that he was Laboo's former partner, and then, we let him meet Laboo as a gift for the new partner. We just happened to be having a party, so you can come too, grandpa." Luffy said, looking at Brook, "It should be a joy to meet again after a long time of not seeing each other. You and Laboo should have a lot to talk about, so I won't wait for you at the party."
"These are tears of joy," cried Brooke.
"Wow, this is so touching." Franky wiped his tears and took out his ukulele. "Let me sing a song about the joy of reunion..."
"How did that skeleton spend these 50 years of loneliness? That whale actually waited for him for fifty years... Wow, so touching." The fat man and the thin man hugged each other and cried.
[Ding, mission completed, help Lab find Brook, mission reward, ten good and sharp swords. ]
[Witness the reunion after fifty years, complete the witnessing event, and obtain B-level reward, forbidden techniques: Yin Seal, Hundred Heroes Technique. ]
"Uh, are they giving me Hashirama's passive skill as an active skill?" Wang Hao was speechless.
In the end, Colax was dragged to the banquet, singing and dancing with everyone. As for Brook, he had no appetite to eat and stayed with Lab at the beach.
Two days later...
"Lab, I plan to bury the captain and the others here..." Brooke said to Lab.
"The consumption this time is much greater than that of the Psychic Lab. Are you ready?" Wang Hao asked in his heart while standing on the beach.
"No big deal, we are the tailed beasts." Shukaku's sharp voice sounded.
"Then, let's use the technique of doubling!" Wang Hao raised his hand and formed a seal, instantly becoming huge.
At the beach, Brook, Colex and Lab looked at the enlarged Wang Hao in confusion, only to see that Wang Hao was now as big as three Oz.
"Labo, remember what I look like now." Wang Hao walked to the beach and looked at Labo.
"Ouch..." Rab cried out in response.
"Next, I will perform the transformation technique on you (which Alabasta used on Vivi), but because of your huge size, becoming what I am now is already my limit." Wang Hao said.
As he spoke, Wang Hao stretched out his hand and pressed it on Lab.
"bang"
A huge white smoke rose up, and standing on the beach was a Wang Hao who was exactly as tall as Wang Hao.
"Thank you... Hey, I can speak!" A buzzing voice.
"Well, after all, whales are mammals that breathe with lungs. You can walk on the shore now." Wang Hao looked at Rab and said, "But be careful, the transformation only lasts for three hours. After three hours, you must return to the water, otherwise you will be stranded."
"Oh." Lab raised his foot curiously and stepped on the ground carefully. Seeing that there was no problem, he jumped up happily, shaking the terrifying three-masted sailboat.
"Okay, okay, if you jump down again, the ship will be sunk." Wang Hao hurriedly comforted Lab, and then lifted the doubling technique.
"Wang Hao, thank you." Brooke walked up to Wang Hao and said.
"It's his duty. Now that Lab is here, how could he not attend his comrade's funeral?" Wang Hao patted Brooke's shoulder, telling him not to worry.
The group walked towards the backyard.
After a busy period, the remains of the Rumbar Pirates members were buried, and everyone helped to decorate the cemetery.
"Yohoho, that's great, thank you Mr. Franky and Mr. Usopp." Brook said, looking at the beautiful cemetery.
"No, no, this is nothing." Franky said.
"It's all thanks to my design." Usopp said proudly.
"I picked the flowers." Chopper said while jumping.
"Thank you, Mr. Chopper." Brook turned around, took off his hat and saluted as a gentleman.
"Idiot, I'm not happy at all, bastard!" Chopper's face was so red that he almost floated up.
"What a magnificent grave. After all, we can't carry so many corpses with the little lion." Brooke said, looking at the cemetery.
"Call it the Thousand Sunshine from next time," Franky corrected.
"This terrifying three-masted sailing ship is an island that drifted from the West Sea of our hometown. It is the land of our hometown. It can now rest in peace." Brook continued to commemorate.
"Well, Brook, we're leaving first." Franky said hello to Brook, and the group turned and left, leaving only Brook and Lab.
"Okay." Brooke turned around, took off his hat and saluted.
"You know what? I saw Rab, and Rab is here now..."
From the back, Brooke could be heard talking to himself.
Not long after, Zoro walked up from behind Brook, who was sitting in front of the grave playing the violin, then inserted a knife with its sheath in front of the grave and sat down.
"Ah, you scared me. Is your injury better?" Brook and Lab looked at Zoro and asked.
"Ah, it's fine now." Zoro said, "That's the dead sword, Xuezou, let me put it here to pay my respects."
As he said this, Zoro clasped his hands together and closed his eyes in silence, while Brook tilted his head and looked at Zoro.
"Hmm?" Zoro opened his eyes and looked at Brook who was looking at him.
The two chatted...
Three hours later, a group of people stood on the wall and watched as Colax crawled through the manhole cover and entered Lab's body.
"Oh oh oh, wipe away the tears gently..."
The music started and everyone said goodbye to Rab.
"Whale, old man who looks like a flower, wait for us to circle the Grand Line and see you at the Twin Capes." Luffy waved his hands and shouted.
"Wow..." Brooke wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
"As long as Wang Hao is still here, we can see each other again anytime." Franky comforted.
