*Brook talks with the Straw Hat Crew*
Brook: Back then, I didn't even know Devil Fruits existed. I always thought what I saw was just a hallucination... I... It's because of how drastically the princess changed after my benefactor's death...!! Because it was terrifying...!!! She looked just like a demon...!! If that...!! If that was actually a real memory...
Hey, everyone... I... Just one more time (This is the chapter title reference)... Is it okay... if I believe in Princess Shuri!? If she really is a "victim"...
Shuri/Gunko mini flashback*:
"Run away, Brook!!!"
"Is it because I'm Papa and Mama's daughter?"
*Brook is in full-blown tears. He prostrates himself before the crew, bowing his head to the ground (dogeza).*
Brook: I want to save... Princess Shuri!!! Would it be alright if I borrowed everyone's strength?!
Jinbe: Don't be such a stranger, Brook! Let's hurry and smash that ice!
Nami: I wonder if lightning would work?!
Franky: One shot of my Radical Beam should do it!! (Franky is crying too.)
