Hearing this, Dalton was even more sure that she must be Princess Vivi, who attended the world meeting years ago.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to know other countries so well.
Dalton looked a little sad, and then looked up at the blue sky.
"Indeed, Drum Island was originally a holy place for doctors, but more than ten years ago, Wapol came to power and drove all the doctors out of the country."
"Only twenty doctors were left by his side to treat him exclusively."
"If ordinary people want a doctor to treat them, they have to pay a lot of money, and they have to kneel down and beg Wapol."
Hearing this, a solemn look appeared in Vivi's eyes.
Although she was very angry with what their king did, there was no time for that now.
They had to find a doctor quickly, otherwise Nami's condition would get worse and worse.
Thinking of this, Vivi said anxiously:
"Please take us to see your king immediately. If you want money, we can pay it, no matter how much it is."
"Even if we kneel down and beg him, we must save our friend."
Hearing this, Dalton's chest trembled slightly, and his face was serious.
Then he sighed and shook his head, saying:
"You're too late. Our king has already led the guards and doctors to betray this country."
Speaking of this, Dalton looked pained.
"No, to be precise, Drum Island was destroyed by a group of pirates a day ago. Now this place is an island without an owner."
Hearing this, Vivi covered her mouth, her eyes filled with horror.
"How could this be? How could there be such a king who would lead his guards to abandon his country because of just a pirate crew? It's too bad."
Hearing Vivi's words, Luffy also looked very angry.
At this moment, Vivi asked:
"What kind of pirate crew can destroy a country?"
Hearing this, Dalton hadn't spoken yet, and Sanji behind him lit a cigarette and took a big puff.
"That's too general a question. You should ask what kind of pirate crew could make a country's ruler flee with his troops without even resisting."
Hearing Sanji's words, Dalton gritted his teeth.
"I wonder if you have heard of the Four Emperors of the sea."
Hearing this, Luffy frowned, obviously not understanding.
But Sanji, Vivi, and others all frowned.
"The Four Emperors and the Marine Headquarters and the Seven Warlords of the Sea form an angle with each other, maintaining the overall balance."
"And one of them, among the Four Emperors, is also among the best, known as the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard!"
Hearing this, Vivi and Sanji both widened their eyes.
A look of horror appeared in their eyes.
They didn't really have a strong idea about the Four Emperors.
But they had heard a lot about the legend of Whitebeard.
After a long while, Sanji took a puff of cigarette and said:
"It's normal to be scared away when targeted by such a strong guy, right?"
Hearing Sanji's words, Dalton clenched his fists, his whole body trembling.
"That's not it. It would be good if it were really Whitebeard."
"That's just a crew member who was kicked out of Whitebeard's crew."
Hearing this, Luffy and the others looked serious. The image of Blackbeard, whom they had encountered before, had already appeared in their minds.
If they guessed correctly, it must be that guy.
Thinking of this, Luffy's face was serious.
He made up his mind that he would definitely settle the score with that guy in the future.
However, the most urgent task now is to quickly help Nami.
If they delay for too long, Nami's life could be in danger.
"Um, sir, please take us to see that doctor quickly."
Hearing this, Dalton nodded.
"I'll take you to the town to rest first. If you're lucky, you might run into Doctorine."
"If you're unlucky, you'll have to travel a long way to find her yourself."
Hearing this, Luffy and Sanji thanked Dalton.
Then, Luffy carried Nami on his back and set off for the town on Drum Island.
Along the way, the residents of Drum Island were enthusiastically greeting them.
Looking at their mentality, they didn't seem like people whose country had just been destroyed by pirates.
But thinking about it, it's true that having such a useless king get out of the country as soon as possible will allow the people to live a peaceful life.
Thinking this way, Blackbeard also did a good thing.
Soon, Raynor and the others arrived in the town.
Dalton found them a place to live. Although it wasn't very fancy, it was no problem to shield them from the wind and snow.
Coming into the room, they immediately felt a burst of heat.
After coming into the room, Luffy put Nami on the bed.
After covering her with a quilt, Nami quickly fell asleep.
Seeing Nami fall asleep, Luffy and Usopp went straight out to have a snowball fight.
Seeing this scene, Raynor frowned slightly. These two guys were really carefree.
But that's their personality, and Raynor couldn't control it.
Sanji stayed by the bed, taking care of Nami. Seeing Nami's fever getting higher and higher.
With no sign of going down, Sanji was anxious.
"Hey, when will that Doctorine come? If we delay any longer, Miss Nami will be in trouble."
Hearing this, Dalton frowned.
"No one can say for sure about this. Doctorine only comes down once a month. No one knows the specific date. We can only try our luck."
Hearing this, Sanji gritted his teeth and said:
"Is this the time to try our luck? Tell us quickly the way to that castle. We can't wait any longer."
Looking at Nami's condition, Dalton nodded.
Then, he told Sanji in detail the road to Doctorine's residence.
Then, Sanji was about to go out and call Luffy.
"Hey, Luffy, stop playing. We have to hurry up and take Miss Nami to find a doctor."
As soon as Sanji ran out, a huge snowball hit his head.
Sanji really couldn't bear it anymore and gave them each a big bump on the head. Only then did Luffy behave himself.
Coming into the room, after hearing about the dangers on this trip, Usopp's legs trembled and he said:
"Th-there has to be someone to stay behind, right? Th-then Vivi and I..."
Before Usopp could finish speaking, Raynor said:
"It's better to just leave Vivi here. The rest of us will go up the mountain together. There will be someone to look after each other."
Hearing this, Usopp was almost frightened out of his wits.
Tears slowly flowed down his cheeks.
"I have a disease where I die if I travel too far..."
