## One Piece Chapter 462, pages 7-8: Oz's Adventure - Chapter: 462 - Pages: 7-8 - Characters: Brook, Ryuma, Laboon ### Summary Page 7: Both swordsmen prepare the same technique. Brook mutters "Hanauta Sanchou..." and Ryuma answers by launching the stolen version, "Yahazu Giri!!!" The slash crosses the room in a burst of speed and impact, and Brook is struck back through the wreckage. The panels show the two bodies moving with the same rhythm, but the result is clear: Ryuma's corpse, strengthened by the zombie body and armed with Brook's shadow, overwhelms the original. Brook's own move is being used against him, and the room fills with the bitter sound of a remembered technique twisted into a weapon for Thriller Bark. Page 8: Brook is thrown across the room, and the name "Laboon..." escapes him as the memory of his promise rises through the pain. He says, "I need to apologize...!!!" and then, with absurdly Brook-like priorities, adds, "I need to apologize for being so unlucky...!!! First, this afro." His thoughts fall back to the fifty years he spent trapped in the dark sea. He remembers that it was so long and so dark that there seemed to be no reason for his being. His skull twists with anguish as he cries, "It's lonely...!!! My life... has been so lonely...!!!" Yet even in that loneliness, the promise to Laboon is what keeps forcing him back to his feet.
