Someone asks, "A DEVIL'S FRUIT, RIGHT?" Brook names it: "YOMI-YOMI NO MI"? A note explains, "YOMI-GAERU IS THE VERB FOR RESURRECT." Brook says, "THE TRUTH IS, I ALREADY DIED SOME DECADES AGO!" Nami confirms, "THAT'S RIGHT!" and Sanji scolds Luffy, "FIRST, CLEAN YOUR FACE. HOW CAN YOU BE SO DIRTY AFTER EATING?" Brook explains, "IN SHORT, THE YOMI-YOMI NO MI DEVIL FRUIT HAS THE POWER OF REVIVAL. I WAS PROMISED THAT I COULD LIVE A SECOND TIME AS A 'REVIVED HUMAN'." The idea sounds marvelous to Luffy: "OH, HOW WONDERFUL THAT ABILITY SEEMED!" Brook then reveals the cost of his past: "I WAS A PIRATE IN THOSE OLD TIMES." "ON THE SHIP YOU SAW EARLIER." "I CAME TO THIS 'DEVIL'S SEA' ALONG WITH MY NAKAMA." Sanji interrupts, "WANT ME TO HIT SOME MANNERS IN YOU?" as Brook repeatedly burps, "OH, EXCUSE ME, BURP!" Brook continues, "UNLUCKILY, WE HAPPENED TO ENGAGE WITH SOME FRIGHTENINGLY STRONG FELLOWS, AND MY ENTIRE CREW WAS ANNIHILATED." He adds, "OF COURSE, I ALSO DIED AT THAT TIME!" and clarifies that, while alive, the only ability the fruit gave him was "THE INABILITY TO SWIM." Page 6: Brook tells how his soul came back from the underworld: "THAT DAY, AT LAST, THE FRUIT'S ABILITY WAS ACTIVATED." "MY SOUL WAS RETURNED FROM THE UNDERWORLD!" But the Devil's Sea had hidden everything in fog. "BUT, AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE IS A THICK FOG ON THIS SEA AND I GOT LOST." Had he found his body at once, "I WOULD HAVE BEEN RESURRECTED," but instead, "MY SOUL WANDERED AROUND THIS FOG FOR A WHOLE YEAR!" By the time he found himself, "IT WAS ONLY WHITE BONES." Brook remembers the shock with a laugh: "I WAS UTTERLY SURPRISED - I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE MY EYEBALLS! YOHOHOHO!!" Luffy says, "YOU'RE JUST AS STUPID AS ZORO, HUH?" while Sanji warns, "HEY." Franky reasons that Brook's white-bone form is the fruit's true revived power, but after the function was fulfilled, "THE ONLY ABILITY YOU HAVE IS THE INABILITY TO SWIM." Sanji says, "BUT YOU'RE STILL CURSED, RIGHT?" Usopp wonders why Brook still has hair: "USUALLY, WHEN YOUR BODY ROTS AWAY YOU ALSO LOSE YOUR HAIR. BUT YOU'RE AN AFRO SKELETON..." Brook answers with pride, "THE ROOTS OF MY HAIR ARE STRONG." Usopp can only mutter, "WELL... YEAH, WHATEVER."
