Brook (ブルック Burukku) is the musician of the Straw Hat Pirates, and one of their two swordsmen.
Brook consumed the Yomi Yomi fruit, which allowed him to return to life after death once. Brook learned over time to harness the powers of his Devil Fruit more deeply, giving him significant control over his own soul and the souls of others.
Originally from West Blue, Brook served as a royal guard for a kingdom, and later became a member of the Rumbar Pirates. He died and was resurrected thanks to the power of his fruit. However, due to the time it took for his soul to find his body, he was reduced to a skeleton, with only his afro remaining intact. Brook wandered the Florian Triangle alone for fifty years, eventually meeting Luffy and serving as an ally of the Straw Hats during the Thriller Bark arc before officially joining the crew. His dream is to reunite with his old friend Laboon on Reverse Mountain, where he lives with Crocus.
His first bounty as a member of the Rumbar Pirates was Belly33,000,000. It later increased to Belly83,000,000 after the Dressrosa arc. After the assault on Onigashima, his bounty increased to Belly383,000,000.
