Déjà qu'on a eu le sauvetage de Robin et puis je vois bien Luffy dire un truc du genre " Ace est assez fort pour s'en sortir tout seul" ou " Ace a ses nakamas, c'est à eux de le sauver et non à nous".

One Piece Chapter 489: The Eighth
Cover (Color): The Strawhats are playing at the top of a tall tree.

The party is still going on.
"Oi, Skeleton~~~~" "Are you not going to keep singing!?"
"Let's do it again!! Again!!" "Wahahahaha"

Brooke: "Yohohohoho...In the past, I sang this song many times together with my nakama...."
"The Rumba pirates' final great song. When I was alone and lost these last 50 years in this dark, dark, sea of fog...How many times did I hear this song..."
"All alone on a big ship...This song is...the only...thing that made me feel alive."
"However, from today on, I have made a decision of the heart to seal away this song shell. Seal~~~~!!!"
After saying that, Brooke seals the shell in his afro.

Sanji & Usopp: "Ehhhh!!? So you really can do that!!?"
Brooke: "I've learned that Laboon is healthy and still waiting for me...My shadow has returned as well and I've finally left this Devil's Sea...!!"
"The singing voices of my crew stored in this shell...Are no longer there simply for me to reminisce!!"
"I hold this song for the sake of delivering it to Laboon!!! The days weren't easy..."
"I truly had no hope left. But, Luffy-san...I'm!!! I'm glad to be alive!!!"
Snot comes out of Brooke's nose.

Brooke: "Truly!! I am glad to be alive!!!"
Luffy: "Well of course." (smiling)
Brooke: "Because of this day!!! Because such a day as this came!!!"

Everyone is staring at Brooke.

Brooke: "Ah, is it all right if I become your nakama?"
Luffy: "Yeah, it's fine!!"

Everyone: "Just like that!!! He joined~~~!!!"

Everyone: "But welcome~~~!! Musician!" "Banzai!" "Musician! Dead and all bones musician!" "Our sought after musician!"

"You're light weight is a good point too!!"
Brooke: "Indeed!! Down to my bones~~~!!!"
Luffy: "You're so interesting~~~!!!"
Nami: "We get it already..."
Robin: "It seems it's become loud again."
Nami: "Why does our crew gather these kinds of people..."
Lola: "I don't understand it, but I'm glad you're all in good condition, Namizou!!"
Everyone: "We don't get it, but Kanpai!!"
Nami: "Well, whatever. Thanks." *sweat drops*

Brooke: "45 degrees!!!"
Everyone: "Gya ha ha ha ha!!!" "What the hell is that~~~!!"

Even though he's still tilted diagonally:
Brooke: "Laboon, I won't turn back!! We traveled forward the whole time to come to where we are now...!!"
"Because that road was definitely the road to reach you. Travelling around the world...You are there at that goal!!"
"Isn't that right...? That's why I won't turn back!!! I'll definitely come to meet you, so please wait just a little longer..."

Laboon: "Buooooooh!!!!"
Crocus: "What is it, Laboon...You're in frighteningly good spirits today..."
Laboon: "Buooh~"

Brooke: "Allow me to show you this!!!"
After saying that, he puts a wanted posted on a table.
Sanji: "A wanted poster!? You have a bounty!?"

Brooke: "Forgive me for not mentioning it earlier...!! I am!! Dead, all bones Brooke!! I am somewhat notorious!!"
"They call me "Humming Brooke"!! My bounty is 33,000,000 Beri!!"
"Long ago, I was the leader of a battle convoy in a certain kingdom, then later the captain of the Rumba pirates."
"From today on, I pledge my life to Captain Mugiwara no Luffy!! I put myself under your custody!! Consider me your luggage!!"

Luffy: "Nya nya."

Brooke: "I shall put in my greatest effort, sparing not even my flesh and bones!!! Yohohohoho~~~"

Everyone: "Okaaaay, again, kanpai~~!!!"

2 days later.

Brooke: "How wonderful~~~ Thank you, Franky-san, Usopp-san!!"
Franky: "Don't mind it, don't mind it! This amount of work is nothing for me! Uhahahaha!"
Usopp: "My design was a complete success."

They look at the Rumba pirates' grave.

Brooke: "What a splendid grave...!!!"
Chopper: "I brought flowers!!"

Brooke: "Since there was no way such a large amount of remains could be taken on board Lion-chan."
Franky: "It's called the Thousand Sunny Gou."
Brooke: "Strangely, this 'Thriller Bark' island came from our native sea."
"With the soil from their native place, perhaps they can rest easier in death."
Usopp: "Then, Brooke, we're going to head off."

Brooke sits down in front of a grave and plays his violin. Zoro approaches from the side. He thrusts one of his swords into the ground.
Brooke: "Aaah...That surprised me...Are you in good health now?"
Zoro: "Yeah, I over did it a bit...."
Brooke: "That (katana) is...?"
Zoro: "A dead katana. Please let me have a memorial for this 'Yubashiri' as well."

Zoro puts his hands together in prayer.

Brooke: "...Um."
Zoro: "Hm?"
Brooke: ...Ah-...No...That's right, I joined this crew."
Zoro: "Heh, I see...You've got bad luck..."
Brooke: "Eh?"
Zoro: "This crew is pretty varied, you know?"
Brooke: "Yohoho!! In just that way!! I'll devote my bones and flesh to work my hardest!! Ah!! Though I have no flesh!! Yohohoho!" [tn: "I have no flesh" isn't a literal translation, but it's the only thing that would make the joke work in English]
Luffy: "Okay!! Zoro's gotten better!! Let's set out!! To our next adventure!!"
Everyone: "Yeah!!!"
Lola: "You have high spirits, huh? You're setting sail already?"
Chopper: "Eh!? Zoro, you took off your bandages again, didn't you!?"
Zoro: "Yeah. They were restraining my movements."
Chopper: "They're there to make sure you don't move!"

Franky: "You guys can use Brooke's ship. I fixed the rudder and the sails."
Lola: Thank you, you're really aiding us to the end!!"
"No matter how much we thank you, it won't be enough!! I want to allow you to marry me!"

Franky: "You're a fine gem, but I'm too super, so we wouldn't go well together."

Risky Brothers: "Saying goodbye is so hard. Why don't you guys stay for another 2 or 3 days!!"

Luffy: "We can't!! We're heading to Merman Island next!! I can't wait for it!! Interesting guys are going to be there~~!!!"
Sanji: "I'll play with the beautiful mermaids!!(heart)"
Brooke: "I wonder if it will be fun to see the Mermaid-sans' panties..."
Risky Brothers: "Oi oi, what are you talking about!! Mermaids don't wear panties..."
Sanji, and for some reason Brooke, get nose bleeds.

Risky Brothers: "If you're talking about the mermaids' beauty, it would even overwhelm that Pirate Empress, Hancock."
Sanji & Brooke: "Mer~~maids~~~mer~~maids~"

Robin: "Isn't the lower half that of a fish?"

Usopp: "Why do you guys know so much?"
Risky Brothers: "Ahh, we came here three years ago, but we passed by it on the way! It's the greatest, Merman Island!!"
Nami: "Lola, were you guys heading towards the New World?"
Lola: "No, we came from the New World! My mama is a pirate...!! Oh, that's right."

Lola takes out and tears a sheet of paper.

Lola: "I'll give you this."
Nami: "Paper?"
Lola: "It's mama's Biblicard. It's special, since Namizou and I are like sisters."
Risky Brothers: "Ohhhhh!! That's great, oi! Captain Lola's mama is an incredible pirate!! Take good care of that, it'll definitely be helpful!"
Nami: "What? Biblicard?"
Lola: "Eh? You haven't heard of it?"
Risky Brothers: "Captain Lola, Biblicards only work in the New World."

Lola: "Ah, is that so?"
"This isn't just a piece of paper. You can get it wet or even burn it and it will remain undamaged!"
"If you bring a piece of your fingernail to a certain shop, they'll put it in a mix and create a special sheet of paper for you!!"
"That's the paper of life, Biblicard. You tear it and give it to an important friend who you'll be separated from."
"Look! This is the Biblicard I received from my mama."

Lola puts the paper on the table.

Nami: "Ah, it moved!!"
Lola: "This paper will allow you to meet with the one who holds the other half no matter where in the world they are. So I can always know which direction mama is in! Though it doesn't tell the distance."
Chopper: "Wow, how strange. There are a lot of things like that huh? In the New World!!"
Lola: "Convenient, right? Since I signed this Biblicard of mama's,"
"if you ever have a problem, you can follow it and meet with mama."
"At that time, tell her that I'm doing fine as well if you could."

Luffy: "I might have one of those papers. Maybe...."
Nami: "I was just thinking the same thing...That white paper you got from Ace a while ago...Isn't it the same?"
Luffy: "So that's what it was for. It's this." (pulls out white paper)
Lola: Wait a minute! Let me see that!
Luffy: "Eh? It's burning a little and getting smaller."
Lola: "...This is certainly a Biblicard...But,"
"there's one thing I still haven't told you."
"This paper represents the life force of it's original owner!!"
"This is your important person, right?"
Luffy: "Yeah, my brother."

Lola: "I'm sorry to tell you this, but that person's life is vanishing!!!"

Luffy: "Ehhh!!?"

A steadily burning and shrinking paper of life.
End of Chapter.


Comment from Eiichiro Oda:
"I'm very sorry. The break I took last week was for the sake of everyone's enjoyment in the year to come. It will be very exciting. I'll do my best."

Au niveau du Pandaman, ce serait plutôt la page 9 (jojo_009), 2e case !!!! sacré Pandaman, lui aussi est fou de joie !!!
Sinon ça me fait délirer de voir Zorro les mains rejointe en train de "prier" pour son sabre... Je pensais que Zorro ne croyait en aucun Dieu ?!? A moins que je me trompe et qu'en fait il fait tout simplement le deuil ! ;)

VIvement dans deux semaines, en espérant que la mini aventure commence( sur impel down et la fuite de ace please!!!)
Je dis deux semaines vu que la semaine pro, on risque d'avoir le "que sont-ils devenus?" sur la franky family....
