This is cute. Seeing everyone learning about his connection to Laboon and warming up to Brook.

Robin having this reply is also very good. Similar to Brook at first, most or all of the crew at the time were against her joining but Luffy decided she would and that Brook would so that's the way it is. Regardless of how everyone else feels, positive or negative, that's the way it is.

Robin understands that.

Perona having a habit of cheering up depressed people is one, hilarious, and two, fits with Moria being even more depressed than Usopp.

He heard the Dragon half-blood’s voice behind him.

“What the hell is going on-”

The Dragon half-blood looked at Cale who turned around after hearing his voice. The eyes that were quietly observing him slowly started to speak.

“I’ll tell you everything. So, survive for now.”

The Dragon half-blood’s mouth that was dropped in shock slowly started to close. However, his pupils were still shaking. The Dragon half-blood’s eyes reflected the stoic face in front of him.

“You can’t die right now. You must live.”

Those words dug deep into the Dragon half-blood’s ears.

‘Why do I need to live?’

The Dragon half-blood wanted to ask Cale but could not do so.

🥺🥺🥺

Reading One Piece pt 212: Promise Between Nakama

Chapter 459

Thoughts:

- Fpos/cs: I think flashback’s over cause Enel is kicking space pirates’ asses

- Monster Trio is officially confused

- Their shadows are gone and Luffy is hungry (zombies stole all fresh food), this does NOT look good

- “This is seriously dishonorable… I let down my guard!” Zoro, we all know you got lost and that’s how they got you. By the way, great to see you again, green one

- Sanji is Super mad that Nami was taken

- “A WEEDING!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?” so. Sanji’s all caught up. Why is it so funny

- “He must be brave to wanna marry Nami…” Luffy, never change :D

- Mission: getting shadows back

- Luffy figured out which zombie has Zoro’s shadow after zombies wooden shoes? Sureee. Face blindness headcanon strikes again

- Now they talk about Brook

- “He’s a man!!!” now we’ll learn why Franky cried about Brook before (though honestly, we don’t need more reasons to do that, seriously)

- Mini-flashback and Franky is unnecessary rude?

- Brook speaks!

- “Long ago… our pirate crew left one of our nakama behind in certain place. We knew it was a painful and difficult decision but… We made a solid promise that we would “absolutely return”. We set off on our ship and were annihilated on this sea.” Oh god

- “And so as not to break our promise to him…!”oh god that hurts…

- It’s been 50 years and he’s still… I can’t

- Franky says the guy isn’t waiting cause it’s been so long and yeah. But it is One Piece and also shounen so…

- “I know it’s possible he isn’t waiting, he had the right to leave. But if by some chance he believed in our promise, and he has always been there waiting for us…” YEAH YOU PROMISED BROOK! HE PROMISED, FRANKY!! HE CAN’T BREAK THAT PROMISE!!!

- “How lonely would he be right now? He may think we have betrayed him but if he continued to wait for us there even now… How strong his feelings must be!” my poor freaking heart

- “The name of the nakama whom we swore to meet again on that coast was… Laboon.” Wait

- THE WHALE LABOON!!!!???

- OH GOD OH FUCK

- I CAN’T BELIEVE

- BROOK IS LABOON’S NAKAMA!!! THE ONE LABOON WAITED FOR!!! 50 YEARS!!! THE WHALE STRAW HATS HELPED!!! ODA!!!!!!!

- Can you believe ;_;

- “I don’t think he’ll forgive us for having died irresponsibly, and because of our selfish promise would yell into the skies if his voice could… THAT DEATH ISN’T AN APOLOGY!”

- “BECAUSE A MAN ONCE SAID..!! THAT THEY WOULD ABSOLUTELY COME BACK!!” …god, no wonder Franky cried. I’m surprised I’m not crying

- Straw Hats remember Laboon too ;_;

- “He’s still alive right now at that cape, still waiting for his nakama!!”

- “This is unbelievable… They kept their promise together for more than 50 years..!” “To think that one of the nakama that Laboon was waiting for… was that skeleton.” Usopp, Zoro, at this point it’s fate. You HAVE TO reunite these two, YOU HEAR ME

- Damn

- With Brook, fighting Ryuuma

- JUST THREW SALT AT HIM BROOK IT’S NOT THAT HARD

- Don’t touch the afro

- “Our nakama… have all passed away. In addition to losing our nakama, my face, my body, I’ve lost it all. Even if we met again, you wouldn’t even know who I was in this skeletal form.” Let’s face it, if not for Laboon, Brook would throw himself into the sea on week 2 of being a skeleton

- “I don’t have anything left but… they all… said this head of mine made you laugh!”

- “I’m coming to see you. I hope you are waiting, at our promised cape!” AND NOW I’M CRYING FOR REAL

- Luffy WILL have Brook a nakama. He asks his crew for opinion. What do you THINK they say, Luffy

- “The number of shadows we have to get back just went up one, didn’t it?” Yes, Zoro. It did.            

“WE”RE GONNA BLOW DOWN THRILLER BARK!!!” YES WE WILL!!!!
