"One Piece" Events:
"Hello! Please, guys, wait just a moment!"
After the Straw Hats had finished teaching the disobedient zombies a lesson, they were about to walk away when they were called out by someone they all thought was a zombie, except for Luffy.
"I've just watched you, you're terribly strong! Would you please listen to me for a second?"
Luffy was shocked when he saw the miserable old man. "An old man with a big wound!"
Behind him, Sanji, Zoro, and Franky shouted indignantly at how stupid this captain was. "AGAIN, IT'S A ZOMBIE!!!"
The zombie-like old man immediately replied to them. "Actually, I'm an old man with a big wound."
The shock and confusion deepened on the faces of the trio after knowing that the old man was not a zombie, even though he looked like one. "SO EASY TO CONFUSE WITH!!"
"We'll just say, zombies!!"
The zombies-like old man sat on his legs and began to tell his story. "There is a man whom I wish to see defeated...! I think you guys could really do it!!"
"There are many victims... If he was beaten, they would all be rescued. If my shadow was returned I would be very grateful!!"
Luffy immediately remembered Brook's situation. "Oh really! You too don't have a shadow, Gramps... Just like Brook...!!!"
Zoro also wondered about the identity of the perpetrator. "Who the hell did that? Is he on this island?"
The zombies-like old man immediately replied. "It's a man called Moria. He is very terrible...!"
This name caught up Robin's attention. "Moria? Could it be...! Gecko Moria by any chance...!?"
The zombies-like old man nodded. "Ah... Yeah, that's the one!!"
Luffy turned to ask Robin. "You know him, Robin?"
Robin replied with what she knows. "... Only by name. He's a man whose former bounty even exceeds yours, Luffy...!!"
"Gecko Moria is... One of the Shichibukai!!!"
Thriller Bark Island:
"My name strikes fear into the hearts of all who hear it! I will be the one to crush the egos of the Straw Hat Pirates! Keeeshishishishi~~!!"
"Keeeshishishishi~~~!!"
Inside the art store "Thriller Bark", Moria felt an unnatural adrenaline rush when his name was mentioned for the first time in the manga. The extreme excitement he felt at this moment was completely unexpected. He couldn't help but let out a maniacal laugh as he savored the moment.
"Come on, come on! When will I appear next? I can only imagine how majestic and splendid I must look after all these years. I can hardly wait to see for myself!"
With red eyes, Moria eagerly turned the page of the manga to the next chapter, eagerly anticipating his next appearance in the story.
"Welcome to the realm of ghosts and ghouls, Thriller Bark. You are about to witness a NIGHTMARE."
...
Zoro: "Alright, shall we go then?"
Luffy: "Let's head into the ghost mansion!"
"The Four Mysteries!"
"That is certainly me," Moria exclaimed.
"However, I cannot help but wonder why my body appears to be larger than normal," he added, a sense of confusion creeping into his voice.
Moria had been drawn with his face painted dark, as one of the mysterious Four. Despite this, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss.
...
Red Line, Marigoa:
"The largest ship in the world?"
"A ship the size of an island?"
"Very interesting... This Moria."
"It looks like he really pulled it off in the manga. Unbelievable."
"When the CP0 reported that Moria had turned an island into a ship, we laughed and thought it was just a dream, but he really did it."
Inside the government hall, the five elders were completely dumbfounded by the revelation of Thriller Bark.
In fact, not only were the elders stunned, but all the people in the world who had read the manga today were equally astonished.
...
Ohara:
"What on earth! How did he accomplish this?" exclaimed Professor Clover as he stared in disbelief at the manga page in front of him.
"It's impossible! Could it really be the largest ship in the world?" added Doctor Vegapunk, equally as shocked.
"I always believed it was simply a stationary island located in the middle of the Florian Triangle," Vegapunk continued, still trying to wrap his head around the revelation.
Professor Clover and Doctor Vegapunk both looked at the manga page with great interest, recognizing that such a grand title of the largest ship in the world definitely deserves their attention.
"The question is, how did he do it? Transforming an island into a ship is a monumental achievement," said Professor Clover, trying to understand the science behind it.
"Perhaps he enlisted the help of the giants," Brook suggested, adding his own theory to the conversation.
...
Ballywood Kingdom:
"It is confirmed then, you are indeed one of the mysterious four of the Thriller Bark Pirates," Dr. Hiriluk said as he looked at Hogback with a serious expression.
"Gecko Moria, the captain of the Thriller Bark Pirates, will certainly seek you out, given your talent that will help him build an army of zombies. He will do anything to bring you to his side. What are you going to do?" Dr. Hiriluk asked, with narrowed eyes. He could sense a hint of malice from this man, and if he did, he would quickly pull Kureha and leave this place.
Hogback let out a deep sigh, "I don't want to join Moria. Just being mentioned in the manga as one of his subordinates has already caused me a lot of trouble."
"And what do you plan to do about it?" Dr. Hiriluk prompted him for a response.
"I will definitely go with you. Joining the Hunter's Guild as a doctor will save me from all the troubles, despite losing my permission as a doctor from the world government," Hogback replied, with a determined look on his face.
"The permission granted by the guild is better than the permission granted by the government. People today trust the men of the guild more than they trust the men of the government," Dr. Hiriluk stated, as he saw Hogback's resolve to join the Hunter's Guild.
"Ah... I think you're right," Hogback sighed with a heavy expression as he looked again at his zombies-making scene in the manga. He couldn't believe that this is the path his future would take, it seemed so unusual to him.
Ilisia Kingdom:
Father Victor, concerned for his daughter's well-being, implored her to put down the manga she was reading. "Cindry-chan... Enough! Stop reading the manga now. It won't do you any good," he said after Rob had left the art store. He feared that her continued immersion in the fantasy world of the manga would cause her psyche to suffer even more than it already had. Despite his best efforts to convince her to stop, however, his daughter remained stubbornly determined.
"No, I will read the One Piece manga to the end!" Cindry declared, her eyes never leaving the pages of her book. She was driven by a burning desire to know the fate of her dead body, and who was responsible for reviving it. She also wanted to understand the mysteries surrounding her zombie personality, which was so different from her living personality. And why does she hates dishes so much? She was determined to find the answers to all of these questions and knew that the only way to do so was to continue reading the manga.
