After the Marines and government officials left, Moria sighed with relief. He then ordered the workers and shipwrights to continue their hard work and returned to the art store.
"Son of a bitch! They spoiled the most important event in the manga for me!"
He couldn't help but curse Vice-Admiral Momonga in his heart. He would make sure to make him suffer in the future. After all, using the enlightenment he received from the shadow lord Jinwoo, he would become one of the most powerful people in this world soon!
"Keeeshishishishi!!"
He couldn't help but laugh madly after thinking about his bright future.
After entering the art store, he sat down in his previous place and took out the manga book, then continued from where he stopped.
"Hmm, after Hogback, there's Absalom too? So this invisible man who took advantage of Nami-Chan is called Absalom?"
"And who is this talking ghost? I assume it's the ability of another Devil Fruit user on my crew... Its name is Perona, huh?"
"Hogback, Absalom, Perona... They weren't even afraid of a crew that had two supernovas in their ship. Not bad. That means I chose my crew well... That's good! I can't wait to see the result!"
"Wow! Thriller Bark looks exactly like I imagined it... But wait... What the hell!"
"Are all my future cards revealed to the public!?"
After finally realizing it, Moria couldn't stand it and nearly fainted.
...
Syrup Town:
"What the heck! Everything in this mansion is zombies, just like Nami said!"
"Is there really such a haunted mansion in this world?"
"With the mysterious powers of the Devil Fruits, anything is possible, buddy," replied his companion.
"I think I would die of a heart attack if I were with Nami, Chopper, and Usopp at this moment. Does that mean Usopp is braver than me?"
"Isn't that obvious, idiot?" retorted his companion.
"Who are you calling an idiot?"
"You, of course!"
"If you start a fight, you will be kicked out of the art store and your points will be reduced. Only then will you know the real fear," warned Banshina, the Store Goddess.
The two young men immediately stopped arguing and became very shy and well-behaved upon hearing Banshina's warning.
"My son is not a coward, he's just funny enough to create a fun atmosphere among the crew," said Banshina, trying to defuse the tension.
"I apologize, Banshina-Sama. I didn't mean to cause any trouble," said one of the young men, trying to make amends.
"It's alright, just be more mindful of your words and actions in the future," replied Banshina with a smile.
...
Yasopp watched from afar without interfering. His wife was still angry with him, and if he said something else, he might not be at home today.
"Despite your son's cowardice, he's a little smart. This is the second time he's used fire to intimidate zombies," said Beckman, showing a small smile.
"Is that true?" Yasopp asked.
"See for yourself," Beckman replied.

"One Piece" Events:
—————————
Inside the room full of Cindry-Chan's more human-like photos, Usopp, Chopper, and Nami were stunned.
"Now on the second view, she's very pretty... That servant Cindry-Chan...." Usopp said.
"Is this her own room…?" he asked.
Even Nami found it strange, "Would she decorate her own room like this with photographs of herself?"
But Chopper reminded them of how different Cindry looks from the photos, "But she did have some severe stitching scars on her face and body!"
Usopp remembered this and then noted the pictures carefully, "No doubt… None of these photos have those…".
"But it can't be a different person, so… Those should be old photos…!!"
Nami found a well-preserved ancient journal and extracted a lot of interesting information about Cindry-Chan.
"Victoria Cindry… Apparently an extremely famous stage actress," Nami said.
"Look, all these articles are about her."
After hearing this, Usopp was surprised, "Stage actress?... Do any of these mention something like that she was a servant once before?"
"What about that master who drove her out for the plate-breaking?"
To deny it, Nami replied, "When you see this, you wouldn't think of such a career. It's more like she was from a noble family and popular since childhood… EH…"
Usopp asked, "What's wrong?"
Nami was shocked when she learned the truth, "Disappeared from stage…Ten years ago, she died in an accident!"
Usopp shuddered after hearing this, "EEEEEEHHH!!?" "Wha-Wha-Wha-Wha-What're you saying!!"
"Wasn't she alive just now!? She can't be dead!!!"
Frightened out of his wits, Chopper added, "… But, if that death notice is true… That means she came back from the dead."
"Those on this island were… Really zombies! What we saw were all… Revived dead!!"

Ilisia Kingdom:
The manga book fell from the father's hands as he stared at his young daughter with a look of utter horror on his face. Even Mother Eliza almost fainted from the shock.
"This can't be real!" a man exclaimed.
"Isn't the daughter of the Victoria family called Cindry, too!?" another said.
"Isn't Victoria's noble family famous for producing the best actors and actresses on the stage for a long time!?" the same person wonders.
"Isn't their little daughter about to graduate from the family's singing school and start her singing career?" he asked.
"What the hell…! Doesn't that little girl look like the woman in the portraits!?"
...
..
"It can not be...!" the father said in disbelief.
Cindry's little body trembled and tears accumulated in her eyes, unconsciously tears began to spill from her eyes. "Dad... Mom... Am-... Am I going to die?" she asked, her voice trembling.
She was still 11 years old, and she hadn't seen anything in life, knowing the fact that she was going to die in the manga completely shattered her dreams and locked her in a cage of fear.
It's clear that if this matter is not handled very carefully it will have serious consequences for the little girl.
"Who said a cute girl like you would die?" a voice suddenly spoke.
Suddenly, Cindry felt a big hand gently patting her head, the moment this hand touched her fear vanished.
"This is unbelievable!" the crowd shouted.
"He is the owner personally! Am I dreaming!?" the people inside the art store noticed Rob's arrival and froze in their places.
Father Victor and Mother Elise stood up to greet Rob with great awe in their hearts.
"No need, you can go about what you are doing freely, I just came to talk with this little girl for a bit," Rob said with a smile on his face, as he sat down to get close to the level of the little girl's eyes.
"Little girl, it's okay to cry," Rob said softly.
