Crew Strength
The crews strength took them far into the Grand Line, however they meet their end with entry into the Florian Triangle. It is unknown who killed them, only that they died fighting a foe they could not win against.

History
The Rumba Pirates ventured into the Grand Line fifty years ago hoping to find adventure. Unknown to them, their friend and comrade, a baby whale called Laboon had followed them. After several days of repairs to their ship and resupply, the crew finally decided to move on. All crew members made their farewell bid to Laboon, with promise to return in a few years time.

However their return was not to be. They travelled far into the Grand Line, venturing eventually into the Florian Triangle. There they met their fate against a yet to be revealed enemy. Defeated and beaten, the crew was left for dead. After a year of travelling, the soul of one crew member, Brook, found way back to his body thanks to his Devil Fruit ability. However Brook has remained ever aware of his crews inability to keep their promise to Laboon. He has vowed to return to Laboon to apologize, a goal he has yet to achieve.
