Pokemon Trainer of the Strawhats

Thriller Bark

"Yohohoho... Oh, but today is such a lucky day..." the skeleton Brook whispered as he picked up his cane and violin case, and headed out the door. "Not only did I see people once more, but my deepest wish has come true as well!"

The Straw Hats ran towards the stern of the ship, to see Brook take a flying leap that landed him all the way on top of Sunny's figurehead.

"He's so light!" Sanji remarked.

Brook lifted the purple top hat on the afro lightly. "Of course! Since I'm 'dead bones', I have to be light! Now please, find a way to go through that gate behind you and leave this place. Do not drop anchor here. I was so happy to meet you people! I will never forget your delicious food! If possible, I hope we meet again!"

Then.......the skeleton leapt off the ship.

"Oi, Brook!" Luffy called.

"Where's he going?" Sanji yelped.

"Isn't he a Devil Fruit user?" Usopp wondered.

"Hey, wait, look!" Yukiko pointed.

They saw the gentleman skeleton dash on top of the water with a speed to rival a tap-dancer, making way towards the ghost island with a fine spray of water being kicked up in his wake.

"He's running on the water!" Usopp called.

"Eh!?" Luffy called. "Woah, cool!"

"Wow, a Surskit would want to achieve that speed!" Yukiko said.

"A-anyway, Luffy!" Nami stuttered. "Let's do what he said! We don't know what's going on here, but we do know that it's dangerous!"

Luffy turned around, a big grin on his face. "Eh, did you say something?"

"He's going!" Nami, Chopper and Usopp echoed simultaneously.

"W-what's a ghost island, anyway?" Usopp stuttered.

"Hey..." Chopper panicked. "Hey, where'd that ghost from earlier go? Is it still onboard?"

"No, it floated towards the island," Yukiko said. "It probably lives there."

"Hey..." Everyone turned towards Robin. "Earlier there was a lot of shaking. Perhaps it was the sound from that mouth-like gate closing?" She pointed far off in the distance where said mouth-like gate was. "I believe we were 'eaten' by that mouth."

"Eaten?" Luffy asked.

"It's difficult to tell with all this fog, but it looks like there's a fence that extends from the gate all the way around the island," Robin explained. "Which means that right now, we are trapped inside that fence."

"Oh!" Usopp realised. "That must be why he told us to hurry and get outta here!"

"Then, that would mean that someone made it into a wandering island!" Nami realised. "But why?"

"Whatever the reason, what matters is that we're in the middle of the ocean." Franky pointed out. "And like that guy said, We can't drop anchor here."

Usopp bristled. "Oi oi, why are we talking about stopping? We need to leave now, before we're cursed!"

"Listen everyone..." Nami slumped against the upper deck. "I think I have the 'I can't go on that island' disease."

"Me too!" Chopper looked ready to cry beside her.

"Yosh!" Luffy appeared, with a portable basket and a butterfly net in hand. "Then you guys can stay here!"

"You have the 'all ready for adventure' disease!" Usopp yelled at him. "Think about it! Luffy, take a good look!" He gestured towards the island. "That creepy looking building... That's a real haunted house! You're underestimating evil spirits..."
