## One Piece Chapter 455, pages 4-5: Shichibukai Gecko Moria - Chapter: 455 - Pages: 4-5 - Characters: Brook, Franky, Nico Robin ### Summary Page 4: Franky gets angry at Brook's blunt warning, but Brook begs for quiet. "Pl-please don't shout so much. My ears will start ringing!!" Franky snaps, "Yohoho!!! Skull joke!!" and Robin dryly says, "Stop it. He's already dead." Brook tries to continue: "Anyways, please listen without fooling around." Franky still mutters, "Stop it. He's already dead." Brook explains his own arrival: "Like I said before, there was a time when my ship's rudder didn't work, and I drifted all alone in the sea for dozens of years... The rudder was broken, so I was just drifting with the tides. As much as I wanted to escape from this 'Devil's Sea'. Then, by chance... I arrived here five years ago. I was lured onto this Thriller Bark, just like you ladies and gentlemen..." Page 5: Brook tells them how he searched the island. "I, who wanted to get out of this 'Florian Triangle' at any cost, went around this island thinking that maybe they had... the parts to fix my rudder. But all I found were monsters and zombies." Eventually, he says, he was caught and brought to a building. Inside, he saw "the struggling dancer who had been caught before me," and "a patched corpse they called 'Mario.'" Brook remembers the moment the horror became clear: "When I looked up, a scary, big man appeared and... he pulled the man's shadow off of the floor!! And he cut it off!!!" Franky and Robin listen as Brook describes the impossible sight of a man's shadow being severed like a physical thing.
