"Okay, let's talk about it in the context you will like Juno. The cake meaning the shadow gives them the sweetness in this case, the personality and fighting abilities. While the meat meaning the body, gives it toughness and the power of the body depends on the physical ability of the body. If you combine two strong ones, they can create an even stronger zombie!" Brook explained.
"So he wants my friends then." I groaned.
"You too." Franky pointed at me. "You have the second-highest bounty."
"Only because they want to snap my bones again like wishbones." I retorted.
"Moria's favourite aspect about zombies could be their obedience." Robin added. "Generally, it's a challenge to keep powerful warriors in line."
"And our shadows possess the same abilities as us." Brook explained. "The powerful ones are quickly returned to the sea while they are still unconscious."
"So they...be back on the Sunny?" I asked. "Or under?!"
"We still have time, I will tell you the best way to handle this. Please believe me and do what I instruct of you." Brook asked.
"Sure!" I nodded.
"Juno don't be so trusting, how can we just believe him?" Franky asked.
"Good sir, I'm shocked to the skull!" Brook yelled.
"Brook's pain was real when he talked." I explained. "His bones rattled very slightly, but I saw. He will want to help us since he wants allies."
"You were watching me that closely?!" Brook was weirdly acting shy and Robin looked pissed.
"We will hear you out so get talking." She demanded as she stroked my hair while I was still hugging her.
"Certainly!" He exclaimed then explained that we should go back to the ship since they will just put them back there after having their shadows stolen. "Really nothing fatal happens, look at me I'm doing great."
"You are traumatised and...I like their skin on their bones." I admitted.
"And I died!" Brook laughed.
"That's a different story!" Franky yelled at him. "So losing your shadow won't kill you, but make you go unconscious, they won't awaken for two days. The stronger the person the sooner they are put on a ship and kicked out. Why do you think they do that?"
"So they don't come back and murder." I answered.
"The short simple of it, I guess to stop them from recovering their shadows to." Robin added and Brook nodded.
"Why don't they just kill us after?" Franky asked.
"They can't, once you die your shadow will to even if it's unattached. It's best you three fall back before you get your shadows stolen as well." Brook warned us. "Awaken your friends while there is still time to act!"
"Everything sounds logical enough." Franky nodded.
"Now take this." Brook held out some small bags for us. "The zombies' weakness."
