Zombies: Ohhh, how cannis be...
	Others aside from the Hummer,
	who know our secret...!!
	It's rottin' bad news, mate. We spent so much time sayin' "I'll never die,"
	I don' wanna live in fear of oblivion again!!

Robin: I heard these long stairs
	are the way that they carry those whose shadows are taken.

Usopp: Yeah, Luffy got taken away!!
	We were following where he went, when Nami...!!!

 - Page 169 -

Chopper: Oh yeah! Is Nami okay?!

Usopp: Well, he wasn't after her life.
	We'll come back and get her, don't worry!!

Franky: What the hell was that monsterish growlin' up there?!
	We ran up because we heard that.

Usopp: That was actually "Luffy's" voice.
	We'll tell you everything we saw!!
	At any rate,
	...it's one hell of a situation we're in!!

 - Page 170 -

Zombies: Keep bringin' more!! We don't got enough!!
	How much does a Special Zombie EAT?!
	We'll run all outta food!!

Moria: Look at him go.

Perona: Kumacy, what the hell were you doing hiding those pirates?!

Kumacy: I... I... but... I was only...

Perona: Don't talk, it's hideous!!

Odz: Thanks, little onion!! I don't even know who you are,
	but you're still feeding me!! Too bad it's terrible and I haven't gotten enough, heeheeheehee!!

Zombies: WHAT?!!!

 - Page 171 -

Zombies: Dammit, Special Zombie!!!
	We've had enough of your crap!!!
	Who do think makes it possible for us zombies to move at all?!!
	How dare you speak to the master of Thriller Bark, you rottin' bastard!!!
	Someday, the master will be king of this sea...
	We're so sorry.
	That was his idea.
	Don't sell out your friends, mate!!

Moria: Listen to me, Odz.
	You are a great villain of many legends from 500 years ago.
	You have been resurrected into the current day as my servant.

Odz: Servant? That sucks.
	I've got dreams!!

Zombies: I never seen a zombie say that!!!

 - Pages 172 & 173 -

Odz: It's so tight and fussy in here.
	I need some fresh air! Maybe I'll sail around the world.

Zombies: What, like a huge voyage?!
	No, no, don't even think about it.
	This cooling chamber is sealed with super-ultra-heavy steel!!

Odz: "Gomu Gomu Pistol"!!!!

Zombies: Hey, hey, hey, hey, STOP!!!
	This is rottin' ugly!!! Odz's is escapin' outdoors!!!

Odz: That's weird.
	I thought my arm would stretch, for some reason... Oh well.
	I WILL BE
	THE PIRATE KING!!!!

Ryuma: All you're going to do...
	Is beg me for your life, like you did last time...
	Saying, "Not the afro! Anything but the afro!!"

Brook: ...I'm afraid not!!

<<Brook: Hahh... hahh...
	This is no good at all...!!
	The more you bravely cut down
	those terrifying zombies,
	the more they come back...!!
	Hahh.
	But there must be some weakness.
	Hahh.
	At this rate, even if I should find my own zombie,
	I will be helpless before it...!!
	And the worst part is how SCARY they look...

<<Voice: Gyaaaaaa!!

 - Page 175 -

<<Zombies: Our brudda's been purified!!
	What happened?!
	The stupid git... He just HAD to eat that salt-fried fish!
	The fool!! He was a new guy, wudd'n he?

<<Brook: {Could THAT be the weakness?!!}

<<Hogback: Hey!! You're the skeleton who lost his shadow the other day!! How'd you get back here?!

<<Brook: Answer my question!!
	Which zombie is my shadow inside?!
	Answer my question, or I'll cover your island with FISH!!!

<<Hogback: Huh...? Fish...?!
	Fossfoss...
	And why would you do something like that?

<<Brook: What?! Then...
	It wouldn't be "salt," would it...?

<<Hogback: Sa...?!!
	Fo!!
	Fosssossoosfoo...!!!
	Why... why would... would you throw... that every... where...

<<Brook: {It's SALT!!!}

 - Page 176 -

<<Brook: {Hahh... hahh. I knew it! Those zombies are SCARY!
	I HATE the nighttime...!!
	But it's too dangerous during the daytime hours.
	Easier for the enemy to spot you...}
	I... I know what to do when you're scared! Sing a jolly song to ease the fear!

<<Sound: (scuttle)

<<Brook: Oh my!! What's that...
	Oh, just a grasshopper.
	If I just don't look into their faces... and I use my skeleton speed,
	I'll be able to purify the zombies,
	{And finally track down my own shadow.}

<<Zombies: What's that song...
	Someone's humming...?!
	Gyaaaaa!

<<Shadow: (zzzdd...)

<<Zombies: Who's there?!

<<Brook: (zip zip)
	Mmmm-mm, m-mm-mmmm!

<<Zombie: Gyaaaa!

<<Brook: {Gyaaaa!}

 - Page 177 -

<<Absalom: What's up?! What's happening on the island?!!

<<Zombies: A most terrible swordsman
	who arrives wrapped in darkness and humming a song
	is searching around for his own shadow!!

<<Kumacy: A problem, Perona-sama!

<<Perona: Shut up, Kumacy, don't wake me up!

<<Zombies: The Soldier Zombies are practically wiped out!
	DO something!!!

<<Ryuma: Yohohoho!!

<<Brook: Hahh.
	...finally, we meet!!!
	Hahh.

 - Page 178 -

<<Brook: {What frightful strength... I don't understand...
	Isn't that MY zombie?!!
	He ought to have the same blade-skill as I... but,}

<<Ryuma: Yohoho.

<<Brook: {I cannot match him.}

<<Ryuma: Surrender.
	No dozens of attempts will help you defeat me!!
	If you wish to move quicker, I can cut down
	that cumbersome afro for you.

<<Brook: What... no... NOOO!!!
	Not the afro!! Anything but the afro!!

 - Page 179 -

<<Brook: Why don't you understand?!! ...You're MY shadow... (hahh)
	Why don't you understand how precious this afro is?!!
	...Since my body no longer matures,
	this afro will never grow back!!! (hahh)

<<Ryuma: Yohoho, and what of it? I have forgotten all about the days I served YOU!!
	Now, Moria-sama and Absalom-sama are my masters!
	A skeleton who treasures his afro
	is nothing but a farce to my eyes!!!
	(bip bip bip)

<<Brook: Aaah!!! St... stop!!!
	Not the afro!! Not the afro!!!

<<Ryuma: You make a pathetic sight, my former master.

<<Brook: ...I am sorry. I give.
	Please... let me go free...!!
	I will leave this island...

 - Page 180 -

<<Ryuma: Then begone!!!
	I do not wish for you to die, either.

<<Brook: Ohh.
	Ohhh...!!!

Ryuma: It was a most pathetic sight.

Brook: Say whatever you wish.
	I have spent the last five years
	growing stronger and stronger,
	just for this occasion!!!

 - Page 181 -

Zombie: Ahem hem, Absalom-sama!

Absalom: Are you ready for the ceremony?

Zombies: Ahem hem, at any time.
	Oooh, a most beauteous bride.

Absalom: Let's get this over with as quickly as possible.
	Put a dress on her and bring her to the chapel.

Zombies: Ahem hem, right away!!

 - Page 182 -

Usopp: So that incredible crash
	and the shout came from him!
	Hahh.
	I can only imagine that Luffy's zombie
	is bellowing and rampaging around wild.

Franky: Let's hurry.
	Hahh.

Crew: There's the Sunny!
	Aha, so this is where it led...
	Just go up, and you'll get straight to the boss's room.
	The stairs must be here for unloading.

 - Page 183 -

Usopp: Hey, they wrecked up the place!!

Robin: That would be the zombies' work.
	Muddy footprints everywhere.

Chopper: What?! They might still be here, then!!

Crew: Yeah, it's a mess up here.
	Not that we even have anything worth stealing, yet...
	Any zombies around?
	But where are THEY...?
	I don't see 'em...

Chopper: Hey, Luffy!!
	Zorooo!!
	Sanjiiii!!

Usopp: Found 'em, in the dining room!!
	All three!!

 - Page 184 -

Crew: They've been, uh, "decorated" by the zombies.
	...Oh, that's horrible.
	HEY!!! Wake the hell up!!! Quit sleepin' around on the job!!!
	We've got a problem here!!!

Usopp: They still won't wake...

Franky: How can they not wake up?
	Fine, I'll just use my bazooka.

Usopp: No, I'll handle this...
	Wake up!! A beautiful swordsman just brought us some meat!!!

 - Page 185 -

Sanji: (pop...)
	BEAUTIFUL?!!

Luffy: MEAT?!!
	(pop...)

Zoro: SWORDSMAN?!!
	(glare...)

Chopper: Buffoons!!

SBS Corner

D: Oda-sensei! I've always wondered, aren't the Marine salutes kind of backward? I thought you
	saluted with the SIDE of your hand against the forehead! Explain please!
			P.N. Like That
O: Oh, right. After all this time, I can't remember ever answering this one. Yes, it is a bit
	different than what you'd expect, but there's a reason. Sailors have pull all sorts of
	ropes on a sailboat to make sure it can sail, and the tar on the ropes makes their hands
	filthy and black. It would be rude to show those blackened hands to a superior officer,
	so they salute showing the back of the hand. It's the kind of courtesy you'd expect from
	the Marines.

D: Hello, Oda-sensei. I know you're busy watching Iitomo (Waratte Iitomo, "You Can Laugh" a
	comedy program), but I hope you'll answer my question. What does it mean when people
	mention directions like 9 o'clock or 12 o'clock in your manga?	P.N. **-kun Behind You
O: Well, just imagine a clock with you in the middle. 12 o'clock is right in front of you,
	6 o'clock is right behind you. You just think of the ship the same way. There's no east
	west north south, you just use the directions you see.

D: Hello, Odacchi. OP started when I was in 1st grade, and has now reached its 10th anniversary.
	I've decided that I should step in and let you know how many panels you've drawn in
	45 volumes! After a two-month investigation, I've found the result is 40,971 panels!!
	Round of applause! *silence* ...W-well, keep reaching for 100,000. I'll check in again
	when you hit 500 chapters. Bye-bye baby, shap babaloobap badap bam boom bang crash thud!
			P.N. Mr. 9's First Apprentice, Tatsuya *
O: You really counted 'em. So, I've drawn 40,000 panels. Hmmm. It doesn't hit home. But I
	appreciate your effort! Thanks a lot!!
	See you next volume!!
