Chapter- 57
—------------------
After a few hours…
Right now weather has finally calmed down even though the rain hasn't stopped yet but strong wind has now stopped
And if it remains like this surely in a few hours the weather will become clear, another thing is that Robin is now feeling a lot better than in few hours before
Right now she is not feeling cold anymore and her clothes are also almost dry which is good meanwhile Yoriichi also sitting beside her
After dealing with all of the dangers, he could finally rest as he sat down near the campfire too
As for Ember, she now is not as scared as before, maybe because she senses that there isn't any danger near her
As a result, she finally comes out of Yoriichi's clothes and sits on his head as she relaxes
And finally, the beast this whole time lying on the ground while all 3 heads looked extremely nervous
"This place sure is weird" Robin said breaking the silence between them since she couldn't help but want to share her thoughts and wanted to know how Yoriichi would respond
"Yes" Yoriichi replied since he also agreed that this place was weird because nothing in this place made sense
Firstly this whole place is nothing but a huge ship which should be nearly impossible to make and second of all these creatures who are roaming in this place surely are weirder than this ship
Since these creatures can move without any life in them and not to mention they are attacking them meaning that their presence is not welcomed here
Fortunately, Yoriichi could easily take care of them, as well as he also managed to find a possibility of how these creatures exist
And that possibility is Devil fruit power, since Rayleigh's explanation about devil fruit which he gave to Yoriichi makes him realise that this thing must be done by some devil fruit user
Yoriichi understands based on Rayleigh's lectures about devil fruits that nobody knows the origin of devil fruits but everyone wants to eat those things even though devil fruit tastes very horrible
The reason is that devil fruit can give a person unimaginable power that can't be explained by common sense
Even though it might sound good but it also comes with a cost which is a person who ate the devil fruit loses the ability to swim again or more like even touching the sea will cause those people to become extremely weak
It may not sound that bad but in the one-piece world which mostly has seas, it's nothing but a horrible curse because the moment any devil fruit user falls into the ocean, it's over for them
Unless someone saves them, it's very unlikely for them to survive and that's not only evidence that makes Yoriichi think that thus all creatures are created by some Devil fruit users
Another thing only his haki can completely stop these creatures since to confirm his suspicious I picked up some rock from the ground and threw it towards the nearest undead creature which he could sense
The area that stone hit that creature got completely blown off but still, that creature kept moving towards their location like nothing had happened
What makes one thing clear for Yoriichi is that these undead creatures don't feel pain at all since if there is any normal creature then surely it screams in pain and after using a normal physical attack
He decided to use haki as he picked up another stone and used Armament haki then threw it with the same force or even less
Another disadvantage of Devil fruit is that it can be nullified by 2 more methods which are 'sea stone' and Haki
Sea stone is very difficult to obtain and it's very expensive another method is Haki is easier compared to obtaining 'sea stone' as it only requires natural talent also intense training
Yoriichi has both able to Maintain Haki to a very high level with his insane talent as well as with the right teacher
As a result as soon that rock touched the undead creature, it got destroyed and the result that creature didn't move any more
This confirms Yoriichi's suspicious and he can tell that the person who has this devil fruit power must be residing in that castle in the middle of this ship
"What did you find?" Robin asked this while directly looking at him since she also wanted to know what was happening in this place
She decided to ask this thing directly since she knew another approach might not work on such a simple man like Yoriichi
Hearing this question he became stunned as he looked at Robin and found her staring at him with curious eyes
Even though he doesn't want to her know about this still somehow Robin manages to find that he has discovered something which makes him surprised
Anyway since now Robin's condition has improved as well and he honestly doesn't want to lie to her, he decides to tell her about pieces of information that he found in this place
After hearing all the information from Robin, she couldn't help but become stunned since what Yoriichi has said makes sense
"Zombies" Robin muttered as she thought this might be the best word to describe the creatures explained by Yoriichi just now
Hearing this, Yoriichi showed a confused face since he had no idea what 'Zombies' means
Seeing this, Robin couldn't help but be a little stunned since every common kid knows about zombies as soon as Robin returned to normal
She understands that Yoriichi can't be explained by common sense and not to mention that she also knows that in Yoriichi's childhood, he did nothing other than training
With those thoughts, Robin thinks that it's normal that he doesn't know about zombies unlike normal people when they were children
