Chapter 359

"Don't say that about Miss Lord Lord Sima Di! Miss Lord Lord Sima Di’s outfit today is simply cute!"

Lina thought for a moment and shook her head, "No impression at all. But if you want to find someone, you can ask the seniors inside; they might know something."

"Seniors?"

"Right, there are many scary zombies in the ancient castle just like me. Please let me lead the way for you," Lina said, completely unaware of her status as a "scary" zombie.

"Then please."

"It’s okay, it’s just a casual thing." Lina said and pushed open the ancient castle door.

However, the inside of the ancient castle was far from the magnificence everyone imagined, leaving only decay and gloom, and a mess, looking like it had just experienced a battle.

Lina led the way for everyone, in a jumping manner. Robin frowned slightly at this.

"Lina, if you move like this, is the vase okay?"

"Please don't worry. The vase looks like porcelain, but it’s actually made of thick plastic imitating porcelain. Although its value is not high, it has received great evaluation because of this craftsmanship," Lina explained. "Speaking of which, who are you? Are you also new zombies like me?"

"We are pirates."

Before the others could cover Luffy’s mouth, Luffy had already said it.

Lina suddenly froze in place, slowly turning her head and asking: "You... are pirates?"

"Yes, that’s right. My name is Luffy, and I am the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates," Luffy pointed to himself and introduced.

Lina slowly turned her head back, then jumped forward like crazy.

"Ah ah ah! It’s pirates! Seniors! Pirates are here! Ah ah ah!"

On Lord Lord Sima Di’s side.

Lord Lord Sima Di understood what was happening after a brief organization.

"In other words, I was snatched of my shadow by Gecko Moria after being scared unconscious by that thing?" Lord Lord Sima Di muttered to herself. "But why did that guy take my weapon too? And didn't send me back to the Sunny? Simply too cruel, right?"

Actually, when Gecko Moria snatched Lord Lord Sima Di’s shadow, Lord Lord Sima Di, who was in a coma, didn't hear his words.

[Is this the shadow of a pirate with a 100 million bounty? Simply too weak, looks like she’s completely relying on her Devil Fruit ability. No way, leave her sword for the shadow too, just treat it as enhancing a bit of combat power... having said that, it doesn't reach the level of a General Zombie, at most it’s just a scary zombie. Well, for the sake of the bounty, find her a good-looking body.]

If Lord Lord Sima Di heard Gecko Moria’s words, she would definitely rush up and bite him to death.

"This is troublesome... where on earth am I?" Lord Lord Sima Di looked at the building in front of her suspiciously. "This doesn't look like an ancient castle, nor does it look like Perona’s garden, and it’s not a church... The modeling field covered it, and it only felt like an attached small building of the ancient castle."

"Okay, where should I go next? Go into the small building to explore? Or go in other directions? Ah, go in other directions, find them, and meet up with them. Although I am free alone now, and I am not afraid of ghosts, the kind of layer-by-layer fear is forget it."

Saying that, Lord Lord Sima Di embarked on a horror island exploration alone, the fire spirits behind her turned into two, like bodyguards, following Lord Lord Sima Di left and right.

Unfortunately, the fire spirits couldn't speak, and the overly silent area made Lord Lord Sima Di’s anxiety increase as time passed.

"Although only a few General Zombies appeared in the plot, according to detailed records, the General Zombie numbers of Gecko Moria are 800 to 899, in other words, there are 100 such strong zombies! If I am outside the plot, I might meet a group of General Zombies or something! If I really meet them, it will be terrible! If it’s an ordinary-looking General Zombie, it’s fine, even if it’s a spider-like one, I can barely accept it, the most afraid is..." Lord Lord Sima Di muttered, "Don't meet a cockroach zombie, don't meet a cockroach zombie..."

As the saying goes, what you fear is what you get.

The first thing that moved in Lord Lord Sima Di’s modeling field, but had no signs of life, appeared.

Obviously, it was a zombie.

The cockroach zombie slowly turned its head, "Guji?"

"Ah ah ah!"

On Luffy’s side.

Lina watched these uninvited guests beat one strong senior after another to the ground, and hid in the vase in fear.

Can't see me, can't see me, I’m just a vase...

*Knock knock*—

"Hey, vase, what on earth is going on, hurry up and come out to explain to us." Luffy knocked on the vase unceremoniously.

"You... what on earth do you want to do?" Lina poked half her head out cautiously.

"I already said, I’m here to find someone... and also to take down a guy named Gecko Moria," Luffy said.

"Sure enough! You are bad guys, right!" Lina didn't know where the courage came from, pulled out the knife placed in the vase, and pointed it at Luffy and the others. "I tell you! I won't be afraid of you!"

Although Lina said so, her body couldn't stop trembling.

"That knife..."

Everyone’s gaze focused on this knife.

"It seems this little girl really knows something," Robin said, crossing her hands.

Lina suddenly saw a pair of hands appear on her arms.

"This... what is this!"

Those hands turned, easily twisting Lina’s wrist.

The God-Art Sword fell to the ground with a *clatter*.

"Vase, where did this knife come from?" Luffy said, reaching out to pick it up.

*Whoosh*—

Unexpectedly, the God-Art Sword flew up by itself and attacked Luffy. If it weren't for Luffy’s quick reaction, he would definitely have been slashed by the God-Art Sword.

The God-Art Sword hovered in front of Lina, seemingly guarding against everyone.

"This is..." Lina was shocked, clearly she hadn't reacted either.

"This is... Spirit Sword protecting its master," Zoro said in a deep voice, looking at Lina. "But the Spirit Sword also recognizes its master; if the master is not dead, it will not recognize the next master."

As soon as this was said, everyone’s faces changed greatly.

"That means Lord Lord Sima Di is dead! Impossible!" Luffy shouted.

"There are other possibilities... for example, the Lina in front of us is Lord Lord Sima Di," Zoro said. "Just now, this guy was still singing that song that tortured me for a long time."

"Eh!!! The vase is Lord Lord Sima Di!" Luffy shouted, looking at Lina incredulously.

"Speaking of which, there is indeed such a possibility. Since there is an ability in this place that can take away other people’s shadows, it’s not strange that there is an ability to change people’s appearance. Those cute zombies might be changed by this ability," Robin analyzed.

When that "seriously ill elderly person" asked them for help, he only said to take their shadows back, and didn't say what the stolen shadows were used for.

"But she looks like she has lost her memory, could it be a side effect of the ability?" Franky said.

"Mm... is that so?" Luffy pinched his chin, squinting his eyes, carefully observing Lina.

Lina was somewhat at a loss for being looked at by him.

"Sure enough, this guy is not Lord Lord Sima Di!" Luffy suddenly realized something, pointing at Lina and shouting, "Her hair is blue! Lord Lord Sima Di’s is black!"

"Are you even listening to what we are saying!" Zoro roared.

Although Luffy didn't listen, Lina did.

Speaking of which, she had no memory of her previous self at all. Whether it was her name or where she was born.

The only memory Lina had left was the guy who claimed to be her master, and also told her to listen to a person named Perona. Lina couldn't forget that strange face no matter what.

Master?

Lina didn't have a master at all!

Why should Lina listen to them!

"I think your analysis is very correct. But I have no memory of what happened before, the only impression I have is the weirdo who turned me into this look," Lina said. "Am I... really that person named Lord Lord Sima Di?"

"Mm... is that so?" Luffy had a constipated expression. He still felt something was strange.

"It seems that’s correct. The God-Art Sword, and that weird song... besides always having a face of 'I am a prophet, I know everything,' it should be correct," Zoro said.

"Luffy is the captain, and Lord Lord Sima Di is our Vice Captain," Robin explained thoughtfully.

"Eh? Is it really like that?" Lina was frightened by the sudden "Vice Captain" title. "Am I such a powerful figure?"

"Indeed, she is the Vice Captain, although she looks a bit unreliable, she is indeed a Vice Captain who is very trustworthy," Robin said.

"So I am the Vice Captain..." Lina was very excited, her eyes shining. "If I am the Vice Captain, then you are the captain, and you are my crew!"

The three nodded. Only Luffy still felt very strange.

"So that’s it! Don't worry! Since I am the Vice Captain, I will definitely protect you!" Lina was full of enthusiasm.

"Ah... speaking of which, we seem to be missing one person," Franky said. "Where did Sanji go?"

Only then did the few people discover that one person seemed to be missing.

"Sanji? Is that the yellow-haired gentleman?" Lina asked.

"What gentleman... it’s just a perverted kappa," Zoro said dismissively.

"I’ve been hiding in the bottle and didn't see him... but, just ask that pig who calls himself the captain," Lina pointed, and the God-Art Sword understood her intention, *whoosh* and flew over, inserting itself into that board. ===== CHAPTER 436 =====
