that case, if both of your weapons completely shatter, it proves that the God of Elbaf intends for you both to return home together.""You are both men favored by the God of Elbaf!"The two giants were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then burst into hearty laughter."Good!""We understand!"The two giants then walked to the exit, stood silently in place, and gathered the power within their bodies."You have protected our honor as warriors of Elbafand earned our friendship.""In that case, we will not let your journey end here!""Friends, please trust us. No matter what happens, do not change course; keep going straight ahead!""Good!" Luffy said with a loud laugh, "Straight ahead!"Just then, a colossal sea monster suddenly appeared in front of them, the kind that seemed capable of devouring an entire island!"What is that?!" Nami was completely dumbfounded. Could there really be such a huge goldfish in the world?!"Luffy, turn the ship around quickly!""No!" Luffy refused. "The old man said, straight ahead!"Since they had already chosen to trust them, they absolutely could not turn back!"Luffy, we can trust them, right?!" Sanji shouted with a serious expression."Yeah!"Hearing this, the others stopped questioning and silently watched as their pirate ship was swallowed into the creature's belly.Now, all they could do was pray that their trust was well-placed.Nami gripped Ben's arm tightly; only this could give her a sense of security.Ben patted her with a smile, "Don't worry, it's fine."He still had faith in the strength of those two giant uncles.Watching the going merry being swallowed by the giant beast, the two giants made their move."Sea monster, don't you dare harm our friends!!""Betting on the honor of Elbaf, we must ensure our friends set sail smoothly!""Taste the legendary strongest spear of the Giant Race of Elbaf!""Brave Sea!""Boom!"The powerful attack instantly pierced through the giant goldfish's body, causing the going merry to reappear on the sea surface!Even though the weapons in their hands had shattered, the two had no regrets whatsoever.Watching the pirate ship gradually drift away, the two giants smiled, "Go, friends!"There are even better adventures waiting for you!Then, glancing at their two broken weapons, the two giants burst into hearty laughter.It seems~It really did come true, just as that kid said.Just at this moment, the volcano in the distance erupted again, catching their attention."Gabababa, never mind that. Dorry, let's have another fight first, then we'll go back to Elbaftogether!""Good, this time I will definitely knock you down!"Chapter 57: The Choice!"The next stop is Alabasta, right?" Nami said, standing by the ship's side. "Don't worry, Vivi.""We will definitely make it in time.""Yeah." Vivi nodded. As long as she could make it in time, that was all that mattered.She hoped everyone would wait for them.Just then, Nami's body swayed suddenly. She steadied her forehead and said, "I'm going back to the cabin first."Vivi didn't pay much attention to it, assuming it was just that time of the month.But Ben was different. After noticing that something was wrong with Nami, he immediately rushed over. When he saw Nami's neck clearly, his expression changed instantly. "Where is your necklace?""Necklace?" Nami looked up at Ben, instinctively reaching up to touch her neck, only to find that the necklace was indeed gone."Sorry..." Nami said, feeling a bit embarrassed. "It might have fallen off by accident when we ran into that explosive man earlier."The situation had been too urgent at the time; she hadn't been able to notice it.Hearing this, Ben clenched his fists, his eyes becoming somewhat fierce.Was it the Will of the World or something else?Seeing the look in Ben's eyes, Nami said like a child who had done something wrong, "I'm sorry, I...""Ah, it's nothing." Realizing his expression was a bit off, Ben comforted her, "I'm not angry that you lost the necklace, I'm just...""Sigh, forget it.""Are you feeling okay?""It's nothing, just feeling a bit of a headache." Namiforced a smile. "I should be fine after going back to rest for a bit.""By the way, remember to get me a copy of today's newspaper.""Yeah." Ben nodded. After watching Nami leave, his expression turned completely gloomy.If he guessed correctly, Nami must have still been bitten by that poisonous insect.The will of the Heavenly Dao?Was the goal to go to Drum Island to find Chopper?Thinking of this, Ben looked up fiercely at the sky and said, "If anything happens to Nami, I don't mind blowing up this world.""I mean what I say."A day passed quickly, and the pirate ship was heading toward Alabasta.But Ben's expression hadn't changed at all, because he discovered that Nami's condition had worsened.Placing the newspaper in his hand on the table, Benwalked over to Nami and touched her forehead. His expression was grim as he said, "This temperature...""It's okay." Nami smiled weakly. "Give me today's newspaper to read."She couldn't let important matters be delayed."You're in this state, and you're still thinking about reading the newspaper?" Ben raised his voice involuntarily. "Could you please take care of your own body!"It was all because of that damn Mr. 5. Damn it, it was too easy for them to just die like that.After handing the newspaper to Nami, Ben took out a thermometer to measure her temperature and was instantly dumbfounded. "Forty degrees?!"With Nami's constitution as an ordinary human, forty degrees was almost enough to cost her her life!"What's wrong, what's wrong?!" The companions outside heard this and all rushed in, shouting, "What happened?""I'm not..." Nami hadn't finished her sentence before Ben interrupted, "Nami has a high fever.""It's forty degrees right now. If this continues, her life will be in danger.""I'm fine..." Nami said, hiding the newspaper behind her back. "Getting to Alabasta is what's most important right now."Veins bulged on Ben's forehead. "At a time like this, you're still worried about others?"He snatched the newspaper away and placed it in front of Vivi, saying, "Here, this is the current situation in your country.""I'll give you two choices now.""The first is that I find a way to send you back so you can return to Alabasta as soon as possible.""The second is to come with us to find a ship doctor, and after Nami is cured, we will leave together.""You choose."It was clear that by offering these two choices, Benwas already being very considerate.Vivi took the newspaper mechanically and glanced at it. Her pupils instantly contracted. "Has it already become this serious?"The newspaper stated that 300,000 Royal Armytroops had defected and joined the Rebel Army. This directly changed the situation!!"This is today's latest newspaper," Ben said expressionlessly. "It is also the current situation in your country.""Come on, choose.""Ben, you..." Sanji just wanted to say something but was pulled back by Zoro.Seeing Zoro shaking his head at him, Sanji fell silent."Is Nami's condition very serious?" Usopp leaned in and said, looking at Nami with some concern."Yeah, it's not a common cold. It's a viral infection caused by being bitten by a poisonous insect in Small Garden earlier.""That's also why I made that necklace earlier; I was afraid of this kind of thing happening."Unfortunately..."But Ben, aren't you a Scientist?" Luffy leaned in. "Is there really no way?""I remember I said that I can treat external injuries, but I have no way to deal with this kind of viral illness." Ben sighed.Besides, even if he were to research it, he couldn't use Nami's body directly for experiments.What if it made things worse?Nami's body was not like Luffy and the others'."I'm really fine." Nami struggled to sit up. "I'll go outside to check the situation. It won't be good if we drift off course."
Chapter 45They had suffered such a loss before.Ben fell silent upon hearing this, then slowly crouched by the bedside and said, "Come on, I'll carry you out."He hoped this Princess Vivi would not disappoint him.Although that was how it went in the original timeline, this is reality now!Seeing this, the others followed him out, leaving space for Vivi to think it over carefully.The rest of the Straw Hat Pirates were also waiting for Vivi to make her stance clear.If she chose the first option, out of their promise, they would find a way to take her there.But in that case, they would no longer be friends.Nami, who had come outside, felt a bit better while catching the sea breeze.She glanced at the log pose on her wrist and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thankfully, the direction is correct.""I hope you can take better care of your own body. You should know that to me, you are...""I know." Nami leaned against Ben's shoulder and rubbed against his neck, "Please forgive my willfulness this time.""Sigh." Ben sighed, brought Nami to the side of the ship, and silently watched the sea breeze.A moment later, Vivi rushed out of the cabin, attracting everyone's attention."I've boarded everyone's ship, so it might be excessive to say such things.""But my country is currently facing a major crisis, and in short, I want to go back as soon as possible.""So I hope this ship can head to Alabasta at the fastest speed possible."Hearing Vivi's words, a flash of disappointment crossed everyone's eyes."Then Ben..." Luffy had just started to speak when he was interrupted by Vivi, "Then, let's immediately go find an island with a doctor!""Get Nami cured as soon as possible, and then head to Alabasta.""That is the fastest speed for this ship, isn't it!"Hearing Vivi's words, smiles returned to the others' faces."Yeah, there's no faster speed than that!" Luffylaughed, "Brothers, full speed ahead, let's find a doctor!"Ben's expression also softened. Not bad, this girl didn't disappoint him.Since that was the case, he wouldn't mind making something to change the drought situation in that country after defeating Crocodile.PS: It's launching tonight, I ask all my dear readers for a first-chapter subscription~ Thank you everyone.Chapter 58: A Doctor Delivered to Our Doorstep"Hey." Zoro, standing on the lookout post, said with some surprise, "Do you guys think anyone can stand on the surface of the sea?""Are you an idiot, Zoro?" Usopp looked at Zoro with disdain, "How could anyone stand on the surface of the sea?"That's nonsense, right?Ben was also a bit surprised. Could it be that a ninja from the neighboring village had arrived?Were there other Transmigration users besides him?He immediately turned his head to look into the distance and was stunned for a moment."There really is..."Huh, isn't that Wapol's subordinate!Thinking of this, Ben felt a surge of joy, "Hey, Luffy, there might be a ship doctor on their ship!"Most importantly, these people might have an Eternal log pose to Drum Island!"What?!" Luffy was a bit confused upon hearing this. A ship?Wasn't he just standing on the surface of the sea alone?Immediately, the sea began to tremble, and an incredibly huge pirate ship appeared before everyone."There really is one..." Usopp was dumbfounded.How did Ben know?Did he see a shadow under the water?This guy's eyesight turned out to be better than his; how terrifying."In that case, they have a doctor on their ship, right?" The others immediately perked up, "Brothers, let's rob them!""Yeah!"If they could rob a doctor here, that would be the best thing.After all, what they lacked right now was time."What?" Wapol, who was just about to jump down, was dumbfounded upon hearing this, and looked at the people below in disbelief, saying, "You intend to rob me?""You must be joking."Can't you see the reality of the situation?Can't you see the difference in numbers?!Wapol counted carefully; there were only five people down there right now.Even if there were more in the cabin, how many could there be?"Forget it, I was originally going to go down and take a look." Wapol waved his hand, "Go, take them down.""Oh, right, remember to seize their log pose.""Yes!"Hearing Wapol's words, a flash of disappointment crossed Ben's eyes.No log pose?Forget it, anyway, it's already starting to snow here, which proves they have already entered the range of Winter Island.The distance to Drum Island shouldn't be far now.Forget it, let's just seize one or two doctors first.Thinking of this, Ben immediately took action, "Explode!""Boom!"The pirate ship in the distance suddenly exploded, directly blowing away a portion of the people!"Haha, has it started?!" Luffy rushed up excitedly, "Then come on, let's have a good fight!""Hey, Marimo, let's see who defeats more!""Then the loser will definitely be you!"Watching the three people rush up, Usopp grabbed Ben's thigh and shouted, "Ben, you can't go!""What if their people rush up here?!"He wouldn't be able to save the people on this ship then!Ben stopped upon hearing this; that was indeed a valid point.Forget it, then he would wait a while.Anyway, taking them down was just a matter of time...."These guys are all doctors??" Ben asked, looking at the people Luffy brought back with surprise."Yes." Luffy picked his nose and casually wiped it on the doctor next to him, "They said they were doctors."The doctor was too afraid to speak up despite his anger."Alright, stop talking nonsense, let's hurry over and check on Nami's condition." Ben led the people toward the cabin."Ah!" Usopp behind him suddenly shouted, "They're running away!"Seeing them go back, Wapol's ship in the distance immediately rowed away, as if afraid they would come back to find trouble again."It doesn't matter; we got what we needed anyway."After returning to the cabin, the doctors crouched on the ground and carefully observed Nami's condition, their faces turning pale instantly."What's wrong?" Vivi, who was nearby, saw their expression and immediately asked, "Is it hard to treat?""If you need anything, we will go find it immediately.""It's not..." One of the older doctors wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Sorry, there is nothing we can do."They were afraid simply because they feared death.Because they couldn't cure the illness, and if they were killed to vent anger..."What do you mean, aren't you doctors?!" Sanjiimmediately became displeased, "Are you unwilling to treat us?!""If you want money, we have some." Usopp added."It's not about these problems." The doctor sighed, "This is an extremely rare disease. I suspect it is carried by some special creature that has existed since ancient times.""Have you been to any ancient islands before?""Yes, we went to Small Garden, which is a primitive island.""That's it then." The doctor hesitated and said, "This virus will kill the patient in a short time. At most, the patient will be gone within seven days.""So I suggest you head to Drum Island as fast as possible. There is a particularly skilled doctor there; perhaps she has a way."Although she is called a witch, her medical skills are indeed very impressive."Are you telling the truth?" Luffy's expression turned incomparably ugly when he heard there were only seven days left, "If you are lying to me, I will be very Life Qi."Luffy was incomparably clear-headed now; if this bastard was lying to them just to return to his own country, then Luffy wouldn't mind destroying that place!
Certainly," the doctor nodded. "There is no benefit for me in lying to you.""Good," Luffy said, glancing at the others. "Search for Drum Island with everything we've got. We need to find a doctor to treat Nami!""Aye!"Ben glanced at the only female doctor among them and said, "She is in your care now. Take good care of her, understand?""If any problems arise..."Seeing the fierce glint in Ben's eyes, the female doctor immediately nodded to show she understood.Right now, their lives were in the hands of this group, so it was better to just behave.At the end of the day, they were just a group of powerless doctors....The book goes on sale tonight, please support with your first subscription! Dear readers...Chapter 59: I Will Save You, Even If It Kills Me!"That's Drum Island ahead." The doctor looked at the distant Winter Island and breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he wouldn't have to die."Is this the place?" Luffy looked at the island in the distance and smiled. "The person who can cure Nami is inside, right?""Yes.""Great! Nami is saved!"Since that's the case, let's hurry and find that so-called doctor.Nami's condition cannot wait.Ben turned and entered the cabin. He crouched beside Nami's bed and said, "Don't worry, Nami. You'll be better soon.""Mm." Nami nodded, her face flushed red. She was so weak right now that she didn't even want to speak.Ben sighed, crouched down, and lifted Nami from the bed. After wrapping her securely in a quilt, he carried her on his back."Let's go. I'm taking you to get treated."Just then, a gunshot rang out from outside, catching Ben's attention. "Did a fight break out?"After going out, he saw Luffy kneeling on the ground, saying, "I beg you, please let us go up.""My partner needs treatment from that doctor."For the sake of his partner, Luffy didn't care about such things anymore.Ben was deeply moved; this was Luffy...Dolton was silent for a moment. Should he trust him?Then, he noticed the doctor crawling out of a tent nearby, his pupils constricting. "Kachi?""Weren't you...""That's a long story." The doctor, called Kachi, sighed. "Because of these kids, we managed to escape from Wapol.""They really are here to find that witch.""Rest assured, although they look like a group of pirates, they aren't bad people."At the very least, they hadn't mistreated him and the others during this time.They even set up tents for them and brought them warm clothes and quilts.Saying they were a bunch of heinous pirates?He didn't believe it!So, he didn't mind doing them a favor.Perhaps it was Luffy's kneeling that moved him, or perhaps Kachi's words provided some reassurance.In the end, Dolton compromised."Fine, come with me.""Everyone, disperse." Dolton waved his hand at the others; he was very confident in his own strength.Even if this group tried anything else, he could subdue them all!But they didn't look like bad people; they looked more like a group of kids out on an adventure...Returning to the house, Dolton learned the situation and sighed. "Thank you for bringing these people back."In a sense, they were the hope of Drum Island, as there were no other doctors here now besides that witch."Old man, stop talking nonsense and hurry up and tell us the location of that witch."Dolton nodded upon hearing this and pointed at the huge mountain outside the window. "It's right there.""That's where the witch lives.""There, huh..." Luffy looked at the distant mountain and adjusted his hat. "Alright, I got it.""Ben, let's go.""Alright." Ben nodded, then turned and looked at the others. "You guys wait here for us.""If any enemies attack, feel free to give this old man a hand.""Enemies?" Zoro paused, then immediately thought of Wapol. "You mean...""Just taking precautions." Ben waved his hand, opened the door, and walked out.Every minute they stayed, Nami's condition would worsen."Hey." Dolton chased after them, shouting, "I suggest you take the back mountain. If you go up this way, you'll run into Lapahn!""They're a terrifying species of carnivorous rabbit. If you get surrounded by them, you'll definitely die.""Heh, rabbits?" Ben slowly raised his head and looked into the distance. "Forget rabbits. Even if a Dragon came right now, I'd kill it."Any creature that dared to stand in his way now had to die!Watching their retreating figures, Dolton opened his mouth, but finally sighed. "I hope they'll be alright.""Don't worry, they're very strong!" Sanji looked at their retreating figures with confidence. "Forget carnivorous rabbits, even Sea Kings couldn't do anything to them!"Sanji was extremely confident in his partners!"Is that so?" Dolton nodded. If that was the case, then that was good.He hoped they could reach the witch smoothly and save that little girl.A long time later, the witch arrived in the village, found the sick child, and cured them.Learning the news, Dolton was stunned. "So she had already come down the mountain?"But those two kids had already taken the sick girl up the mountain...Thinking of this, Dolton immediately took Sanji and the others and gave chase. "Sorry, I didn't expect her to have come down.""I hope we can catch them and bring them back now."Unfortunately, they were one step too late.On the other side, Ben and Luffy had already arrived at the base of the massive mountain. All the Lapahn along the way had been beaten down by them.Although they encountered an avalanche along the way, making the process incredibly difficult, they finally reached their destination."Time to climb." Ben took two gloves out of his pocket and handed them to Luffy. "Here, take these.""Once you put them on, you can stick to the rock face and climb up."Luffy didn't stand on ceremony. After taking the gloves, the two began to climb.It was very smooth at the beginning, but halfway up, a gust of wind suddenly came from afar, almost blowing Nami off Ben's back.Startled, Ben instinctively used both hands to protect Nami behind him, causing himself to fall.Luffy immediately shouted, "Grab my arm!"Then he threw his arm out forcefully.Ben seized the opportunity, grabbed Luffy's arm, and was catapulted back up."Be careful, don't fall again.""Alright." Ben placed one hand on the rock face while the other protected Nami on his back.There was no choice; the rope had started to fray. If he didn't do this, Nami would definitely fall.He was silent for a moment, then his gaze hardened, and he bit down hard onto the rock face.Just like that, Ben climbed up with great difficulty!Nami, I will save you, even if it kills me!Chapter 60: An Interesting Little GuyAt this moment, Luffy's physical condition was actually not good either. Having just experienced an avalanche, and with very little clothing on, his condition was already quite poor.It was just that he didn't want to cause trouble for Ben, as Ben was also..."Ben, you holding up alright!""Ah." Ben squeezed out a word, shivering. His mouth was full of blood, and his tongue was numb.But it didn't matter; the top wasn't far now.He could already see the summit!Thinking of this, Ben quickened his pace, and soon the two of them rushed up.Upon reaching the top, Ben no longer had the strength to speak.He collapsed directly onto the ground."Hey, Ben, hang in there." Luffy threw away the two gloves in his hands and walked to Ben's side, wanting to pick them up.
Just at this moment, a sound of footsteps came from the distance.Ben glanced into the distance, and after realizing it was Chopper, he closed his eyes.Since he had arrived, there shouldn't be any problems now."Doctor, please save my companion." Luffy said, trembling."But your body...""Please!" Luffy looked at Chopper and said with a serious face.At this time, Chopper was in his human-beast form, looking no different from a human, so Luffy thought he was the witch.Chopper looked at Luffy's serious expression and thought to himself, 'Companions, huh...'"Follow me."At least this person gave him a pretty good first impression~"That's how it is, Dr. Kureha." Chopper said, looking at the two people lying not far away with a complex expression, "Please save them.""Since my Chopper has said so~" Dr. Kureha smiled upon hearing this, then turned her head to look at Ben, "This child..."Walking over and opening his mouth to take a look, Dr. Kureha's pupils constricted, "He actually used his teeth?"With her extensive experience, she could tell immediately; did this child climb all the way up using his mouth and hands?Just how much determination must that take??!Glancing at the other young girl, Dr. Kurehaimmediately understood.This must be his most important person."By the way, where is the other person?""He's in another room." Chopper thought for a moment and said, "His frostbite was also very severe, so I treated him first.""However, he really wanted to come here, but I refused."The situation here was much more serious than his; no one except the doctor could be here."You did the right thing." Dr. Kureha nodded, then looked at the two people on the bed with some emotion, saying, "It's rare to see this kind of thing these days.""Oh well, since you've encountered me, it's your stroke of luck.""Chopper, prepare yourself, let's first see what illness this young girl has.""Okay."The test results appeared quickly. Looking at the reagent that had reacted in her hand, Dr. Kurehasaid, "Kestia, huh...""It's a good thing this young girl was brought here in time and hadn't suffered any other injuries."Otherwise, even she wouldn't have been able to save her."Get ready, let's save this young girl first.""You perform the operation, I'll watch from the side.""Eh, what about him?" Chopper pointed at Ben and asked."Him?" Dr. Kureha glanced at Ben and said, "Although I'm not sure what's going on, this kid's body is indeed recovering on its own.""I've already cleaned his oral cavity earlier; now we just need to wait for it to heal naturally."Well~If it weren't for the fact that they had gained Chopper's approval, she would really like to dissect him to see~Chopper immediately got busy. After a few hours of treatment, Nami's physical condition stabilized."Alright, next is rest." Dr. Kureha turned and walked out, "I'll leave them to you, Chopper."She was going to the other room to check on that boy."Okay." Chopper nodded. As a doctor, keeping a constant eye on the patient's condition was what he should be doing.However...Looking at Ben's mouth, Chopper was full of admiration, "This is what a real man is, right."He just wondered if he could become friends with him?"Hmm?" Ben opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, subconsciously saying, "This isn't the familiar ceiling."Could it be that he has Transmigrated again?"You're awake!" Nami, lying on the bed, breathed a sigh of relief as she saw Ben wake up, then said with some emotion, "I know everything you did, thank you.""Why are you being so polite with me." Ben waved his hand. As a man, how could he haggle over these things with his girlfriend?Immediately, Ben noticed Chopper, who was hiding his head behind the door with his butt sticking out, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Little guy, you're hiding the wrong way..."Chopper:!!Startled, Chopper immediately turned his body around, poked his head out, and shouted at Ben, "Mind your own business!"Ben didn't mind Chopper's attitude and said with a smile, "Did you save us?""Uh...""Yeah." Chopper nodded. With Dr. Kureha watching from the side, it was indeed him who saved them."Thank you, Doctor." Ben said with sincerity.This wasn't a lie; if it weren't for them, Nami would have been finished."Ev... even if you praise me, I won't be happy, you jerk~" Chopper twisted around happily, but his words sounded a bit awkward.Nami was a bit speechless, "What a really awkward little guy."Ben laughed heartily; he really was an interesting little guy.Perhaps it was because Ben's temperament seemed quite easygoing, Chopper also let down his guard and sat down with Ben to chat.When talking about dreams, Chopper stood up with a serious face and said, "I hope that one day I can cure this country's illness and make this country bloom with brilliant cherry blossoms."This was the doctor's only wish...And it was his only thought right now.Knowing his story, Ben was silent for a moment, then reached out and rubbed Chopper's head, saying, "Don't worry, your dream will come true."Because he was here!Researching and creating a device to change the climate wasn't difficult for him at all!"Really?!" Chopper looked at Ben with anticipation; this was the second person besides Dr. Kureha to agree with his dream."Yeah."After receiving Ben's affirmation, little Chopper ran around happily.His mood was exceptionally good today~Ben pushed up his glasses and thought, 'It seems it's time to make a robot.'This way, he could handle various unexpected situations.Let's do it!By the way, has his body become stronger?Chapter 61: wild wolf armor!"What are you doing?" Chopper, who had gone out and come back, looked at the thing in front of Benand asked with some confusion."Ah, you mean this." Ben wiped the sweat from his forehead and introduced it proudly, "This is the wild wolf armor!""You can understand it as a type of robot.""However, it has two forms: an automatic form and a manual form.""The manual form requires a person to go inside and operate it."While speaking, Ben pressed the start button.Under Chopper's shocked gaze, the wild wolf armorassembled itself and stood upright in front of them."So... so cool!" Chopper's eyes were full of little stars, "Is this a robot?!""It's too cool!"Looking at the handsome helmet with the wolf head logo, Chopper asked tentatively, "Can... can I pilot it?""Of course you can." Ben nodded, first entering the mecha to confirm himself as the primary authorized user.Afterward, he gave Chopper secondary authorization before walking out of the mecha."Alright, you can go up and play now." Ben pointed to the wild wolf armor and said, "Its cockpit size will automatically adjust according to the size of the user.""Anyone not exceeding three meters can use it."After all, there was no one that tall among their group.Anything bigger would be a Gundam.Hmm, when going to Sky Island, let's snatch the gold and make a shiny golden Gundam.Looking at the open cockpit, Chopper was initially a bit afraid to go in.It wasn't until Ben smiled and gave him a push that he went in and sat down."Hey, Ben, how should I operate this?" Chopper, sitting inside the wild wolf armor, shouted."You just need to wait.""Oh."Just at this moment, a pair of glasses suddenly descended from above in front of Chopper, and at the same time, a voice prompt said, "Please put on the glasses."Chopper obediently put on the glasses, and immediately heard a series of voice prompts."Identity confirmed: Tony Tony Chopper."
Identity Rank: Secondary Authority Personnel.""Vision activated.""Neural connection activated.""Energy levels sufficient.""Respected Your Excellency Tony Tony Chopper, please begin your mission!"Listening to this series of sounds, Chopper was so excited he couldn't control himself.He could now clearly see the situation outside, as if he weren't inside the mecha at all.Tentatively raising his arm, Chopper discovered that the wild wolf armor's arm was 100% synchronized with his own movements!"Alright, go have fun," Ben said with a smile, "but be careful not to hurt your own people."Encouraged by Ben, Chopper walked out the door.He was going to play outside!"You really spoil him," Nami said, looking at Benwith a charming smile. "You let him play with something you just finished making.""After all, he's the one who saved you," Ben smiled. "Besides, in my eyes, he's no different from a little kid."After all, Chopper was so cute, how could he bear to refuse?"A little kid, huh..." Nami didn't know what she was thinking of, but her little face turned red.Seeing this, Ben was startled. "Has her condition worsened again?"Saying this, he prepared to go outside to bring Chopper back."Stop right there!" Nami said indignantly. "I'm fine."I was just thinking about some embarrassing things, you blockhead."That's good," Ben breathed a sigh of relief. "You don't know, you scared the life out of me back then."Listening to Ben recount the situation, Nami listened with a smile on her face; at that moment, she felt her heart filled with happiness."Oh, that's right," Nami said, suddenly thinking of something. "Actually, I've been wanting to ask, how did you do it?""What?""It's just..." Nami gestured with her hand. "How did you manage to make such a complex thing using only such simple tools?"This time, Ben made the wild wolf armor right in front of her, and she witnessed the entire process.It looked so ordinary, yet why was the finished product so...No matter how you looked at it, it was absurd, but the facts were just that unreasonable."Because I am a Genius!" Ben said, lifting his head proudly. "That's why I can create complex high-tech using simple tools!"Actually, sometimes Ben would marvel at his own power, being able to create all sorts of miraculous things.He had that deity to thank for this; he was just that unscientific now.Speaking of which, if snail slow-slow fluid touched Eneru or Kizaru's bodies, would they still be able to fly?Ben was looking forward to the stunned expressions on their faces."Look at you showing off." Nami rolled her eyes, but in her heart, she agreed with Ben's words.He... was a true Genius!"Yo, you brats are awake," Dr. Kureha said, leaning against the doorway with a smile. "Looks like you've recovered quite well.""Thank you for taking care of us," Nami and Ben said sincerely.Dr. Kureha waved her hand. "Don't thank me; you should thank that little guy, Chopper."She then strolled in slowly, sat in a chair, and beckoned to Ben. "Kid, come here.""What's wrong?" Ben was a bit confused, but he still walked over obediently."Open your mouth."After carefully examining Ben's mouth, Dr. Kurehasaid with some emotion, "Your recovery ability is truly terrifying; it's already completely healed."How long had it been?Ben scratched his head. "I do feel like I'm pretty amazing right now."Could it be that he also had an immortal ability?You had to know that even after that wolf was flattened, it was still able to recover to its original state..."Don't get cocky. Although I don't know what's going on with you, that's no reason not to cherish your own body," Dr. Kureha said indignantly. "If you suffer an injury that exceeds your body's limit, you will die too."At least that's how it appeared from her observations.Most importantly, she wanted to give this young man a reminder.Let it be... a reward for making Chopper happy.Just at this moment, Luffy ran in from another room. Seeing that the two were awake, he immediately said, "That's great, you guys are okay!"He had been scared to death before; Ben's mouth was full of blood, and he thought..."Brat, you look pretty energetic too," Dr. Kurehaglanced at Luffy, while also marveling at how sturdy this brat's body was.She heard from Chopper that he had suffered severe frostbite earlier."Old hag, who are you?" Luffy looked at Dr. Kurehawith a confused face. "Where did the witch who saved us go?""Hey, Luffy, don't be so rude!" Nami said, feeling a bit embarrassed. "I'm sorry, he..."Dr. Kureha ignored Nami and instead revealed a smile as she looked at Luffy. "Brat, what did you just call me?""Old hag, what's wrong?""Go to hell!" Dr. Kureha kicked Luffy right in the face, sending him flying and crashing heavily against the distant wall.The force was so great that it even caused cracks to appear on the wall."Honestly, I am still a youthful and beautiful 130-year-old!"How dare you call me an old hag?Are you afraid you don't know how to write the word 'death'?Watching Luffy get kicked away, Bensubconsciously said, "What a fierce old lady...""Hmm?""Bang!"Another person went flying.This time, Ben's head was almost smashed directly into the wall."I've confirmed it this time..." Ben said slowly, seeing stars. "I am indeed very strong."Even after this, he didn't die; his physical constitution was definitely not that of an ordinary person!"Hmph, what a bunch of rude brats."Dr. Kureha huffed, then leaned back in her chair and said, "Brat, was that robot Chopper was wearing earlier made by you?""It was," Ben said, climbing up from the floor and rubbing his head, marveling that there wasn't even a large bump."It seems the outside world's evaluation of you is not wrong," Dr. Kureha's eyes flashed with brilliance. "Scientist...""Kid, can you make something that can change a country's climate?""You're talking about Chopper's dream, right?" Bensmiled. "Rest assured, even if you hadn't asked, I would still help Chopper fulfill his dream.""After all... he saved us."Besides, this wasn't a difficult task for him. With the existence of the wild wolf armor, his speed in manufacturing large machines would be even faster.He estimated internally that manufacturing a large-scale climate controller capable of changing a country's weather would take about one day."Is that so?" Dr. Kureha nodded upon hearing this, and her gaze towards Ben became much more pleasant.Look at that, this brat is indeed a decent person.If Chopper were to follow them..."Hey, old lady, why did you kick me?" Luffy walked back with a confused face, still bleeding from his nose.Ben's pupils constricted at the sight. Blood?Could this Dr. Kureha also use Armament Haki?Looking at it this way, she must not have been a simple person when she was young."Didn't I tell you to watch your mouth just now?" Dr. Kureha said indignantly, though she didn't attack this time.She had figured it out; this person was just so simple that it was as if he were a single-celled organism.He had absolutely no idea what was wrong with what he said, and coupled with what Ben had said earlier, Dr. Kureha didn't mind anymore.Just at this moment, Chopper, who had been playing outside, walked back and said happily, "Ben, this robot of yours is so interesting!""Hahahaha."After walking into the room and coming out of the robot, Chopper noticed Dr. Kureha on the side."Dr. Kureha, why are you here?""Ah, I came to check on this young girl's condition," Dr. Kureha waved her hand and then introduced, "This is Chopper, you should know him by now.""A reindeer that talks?!" Luffy turned his head, looking at Chopper with a shocked face, his eyes almost popping out.Chopper shivered upon hearing this. Could this person also look at him with strange eyes?However, he was overthinking it.Only to see Luffy rush up with a surprised and happy face. "Ahahaha, you're so interesting! Do you want to be my partner and be a pirate with me!"
Part... Partner?" Chopper seemed startled, immediately darting behind Dr. Kureha and shouting, "I won't be a human's partner!""And pirates or whatever...""Pirates or whatever..."Could he really do it?At this moment, Chopper's heart was filled with confusion.Chapter 62: Developing the Season Control Device!Glancing at Luffy, Dr. Kureha's lips curled upward.It seemed there was no need for her to speak.However~"Trying to kidnap my treasure right under my nose, kid, you've got some nerve." Dr. Kureha looked at Luffy, revealing a 'kind' smile."Is that so? Hahahaha." Luffy scratched his head, looking happy. "Thanks for the compliment."Everyone's mouth twitched upon hearing this. Where did you hear that as a compliment..."Dr. Kureha, don't worry, I won't leave you." Chopper reached out and patted Dr. Kureha's leg, then looked at Luffy with an 'angry' expression and shouted, "I won't go with you, just give up!"At the end of the day, he was just a beast; how could he possibly possess something as luxurious as a partner?He then ran out without looking back.Leaving behind a somewhat dumbfounded Luffy. "What's wrong?"Why was he so angry?"Kid, do you really not care about Chopper's identity?" Dr. Kureha asked, seemingly casually. "Even if he is a special reindeer.""That's what makes it interesting!" Luffy laughed. "As for what he is, I don't care.""Is that so." Dr. Kureha smiled, very happily. "Kid, you are their Captain, right?""What is your dream?"When talking about dreams, Luffy's expression immediately became serious."I am the man who will become the Pirate King!"At this moment, a special Aura seemed to be released from Luffy, directly stunning Dr. Kureha in place.A moment later, she smiled. "Is that so? That really is quite a goal."This couldn't help but make her recall the days she spent sailing on the sea.It felt like just yesterday."Alright, in that case, get some rest." Dr. Kurehastood up and walked out. When passing by Luffy, she said, "I hope you don't kidnap my Chopper right under my nose."Dr. Kureha specifically emphasized the words "right under my nose," and then left without looking back.For some reason, Luffy actually understood this time.After watching her leave, Luffy turned to look at Benand Nami and said, "I must make him my partner!""That works too. Since Chopper is a doctor, if he comes with us, we'll have a ship's doctor." Bennodded. "We won't need to keep looking for doctors everywhere in the future.""Besides, Nami can set sail early too."The situation in Alabasta cannot be delayed."Doctor?" Luffy tilted his head and looked at Ben. "That reindeer from just now?""He has a name, you know." Ben said, annoyed. "His name is Chopper.""Also, why exactly did you want to recruit him?"Wasn't it because of his identity as a doctor?"Because it's interesting!" Luffy said seriously. "Hmm, and as emergency food."Ben and Nami:...If Dr. Kureha heard that, she would chase you with a knife to chop you up.Just at this moment, Luffy noticed the wild wolf armor on the side, and only then did he remember such a thing existed."Ben, what is this? Is it some kind of robot?!""So cool!"He had been too busy being shocked that a reindeer could talk to notice this."This is called wild wolf armor." Ben walked over to the wild wolf armor and patted the chassis. "It's a type of robot, I suppose. You can also wear it to fight.""Ben, I want to play with it!""Okay." Ben nodded with a smile and opened the hatch.Before he could even get in, Luffy dived straight inside."Wait, I haven't..." Before Ben could finish, Luffy flew straight out, slamming into the wall, with cracks clearly visible!"Illegal intruder detected. Warning once. Next time, lethal force will be used!" wild wolf no. 1, the intelligent AI, said coldly.This was pre-set by Ben to prevent any special Ability User from entering."What's going on?" Luffy stood up, full of confusion; that hit didn't actually hurt."I told you to wait." Ben said, annoyed. "Why are you in such a rush?"Honestly, when will this impatient personality ever change?"I haven't given you authorization yet, hold on."After saying this, Ben climbed into the wild wolf armor and decided to input the information of all the Straw Hat Pirates.In case Zoro and the others needed emergency support from the wild wolf armor, they could use it directly."Alright, go ahead." Ben climbed out and said, "Remember not to use weapons, otherwise this place will be destroyed.""Got it, got it, so nagging~" Luffy said with a look of disdain, then climbed into the wild wolf armor."Identity confirmed: Monkey D. Luffy.""Identity Level: Secondary Authorization User.""Vision activated.""Neural connection activated.""Energy sufficient.""Respected Your Excellency Monkey D. Luffy, please begin your mission!"Seeing the changes before him, Luffy felt it was magical."Is this the feeling of the wild wolf armor on the ship? It's so cool!"Looking at his mechanical arm, Luffy was so excited he was trembling.Watching Luffy run out, Ben showed an expression of disdain. "Honestly, making such a fuss."I guess that guy Usopp would be the same as Luffyif he saw this thing.Well~Who told me to be smarter and better than them~"Is Luffy really okay like this?" Nami said with a worried face. "He won't destroy this castle, will he..."At the end of the day, this is someone else's territory, and they just saved them. If they destroyed this place...Would they have to pay a lot of money?"Don't worry, it's fine." Ben waved his hand. "I just warned him to be careful.""I've already given the order to wild wolf no. 1; when Luffy prepares to use weapons to attack this castle, it will stop him."After all, Ben understood this guy Luffy; telling him doesn't do much, so he still had to add a layer of restriction."That's good." Nami breathed a sigh of relief; she was really afraid of having to pay compensation.After all, they only had so much money..."Has he gone yet?" Chopper's voice suddenly came from the doorway. Ben turned to look and found the little guy was currently hiding his head by the doorway, while his lower body was exposed.Ben:..."Chopper, you're hiding the wrong way.""As for Luffy, he's already run out to play."Chopper was startled, immediately changing his posture to look into the room. After discovering that person wasn't there, he breathed a sigh of relief.Looking at Chopper's appearance, Ben said helplessly, "Do you hate pirates that much?""Hate?""No, no, no, no, that's not it." Chopper shook his head. "On the contrary, I really like pirates."Being a pirate is also one of his dreams."Then why...""Because Dr. Kureha needs me." Chopper walked over to a stool and sat down, saying, "And I still have to cure this country. If I leave now, I won't be able to fulfill my dream of being a doctor."He would never forget the words the doctor said when he was dying."Hmm~" Ben rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, saying, "In other words, as long as your dream can be fulfilled, you'd be willing to come with us?"Completing this actually isn't difficult.He only needs one day."It's not that simple." Chopper looked at Ben, speechless. "If it were easy, I would have already done it."Otherwise, why would there be no progress for so many years?"That's because you hadn't met me." Ben's lips curled upward. "Little Chopper, just you wait~""I will help you fulfill this wish very soon, and then you will obediently leave with us, hahahaha."Watching Ben laughing as he left, Chopper opened his mouth, and after a moment looked at Nami and said, "Is he always like this?"
Deciding on this matter all on her own?He hasn't even agreed to it yet, has he..."If you didn't want to, you wouldn't come with us, would you?" Nami smiled. "I understand Dr. Kureha's intentions very well; she also hopes you will go out and explore the world.""She just respects your wishes."If Chopper were willing to leave, she wouldn't stop him.Of course, she still needs to keep up appearances.If he didn't want to leave, no one could take him away!Dr. Kureha's strength is terrifying."Is that so?" Hearing this, little Chopper fell into deep thought. Was that really what Dr. Kureha was thinking?But he really couldn't leave here right now."If you are willing to leave with me, it would also be a favor to me.""What do you mean?" Looking at Chopper's confused expression, Nami explained what had happened recently, then sighed. "So, what we are most lacking right now is time."Chopper nodded upon hearing this. Dr. Kureha said that this girl needed to rest for three days and required a doctor to watch over her for her to recover. Otherwise, she would die.But on second thought, if he brought the medicine and went along, they could indeed set off earlier.Watching Chopper's hesitation, Nami smiled and didn't try to persuade him any further.In the end, this matter needed to be decided by Chopper himself; she wouldn't interfere.What Ben did was just give Chopper a choice. A choice to leave this place.After coming outside, Ben met Dr. Kureha standing at the door."Kidnapping my Chopper and still being so loud—brat, do you want to die?" Dr. Kureha looked at Benwith a terrifying expression, as if she were about to attack at any moment.Seeing this, Ben didn't panic at all. Instead, he looked at Dr. Kureha with a smile and said, "Don't you also hope this little guy goes out to explore the world?""Hmph, you little slickster." Dr. Kureha snorted, then looked at Ben with a serious expression and said, "Can you really help Chopper fulfill his wish?"Although she could do it too, that was only a fake firework. It wasn't real cherry blossoms, and there was no way to cure the country's illness."Yes." Ben nodded seriously. "Give me one day, and I can build a device that can change this country's climate.""By then, we can use the device to turn it into a country with spring-like weather all year round or one with distinct four seasons.""And those so-called cherry blossoms can be planted and bloom.""But even if you succeed, those cherry blossoms couldn't possibly immediately..." Dr. Kureha looked skeptical."You don't need to worry about that~" Ben chuckled. "You just need to wait and see the results."Accelerating plant growth—that wasn't difficult for him at all~.Chapter 63: The Meaning of the Pirate FlagDr. Kureha looked at Ben's confident demeanor and let out a hearty laugh."In that case, do your best." Dr. Kureha waved her hand and walked into the distance. "If you are willing to take him away, then take him.""Use your method."If this brat could really do it, it wouldn't be impossible to entrust Chopper to them.Dr. Kureha could sense that this was a decent group of pirates.At least they cared deeply about their companions.This was the one point Dr. Kureha valued the most; this way, they wouldn't bully Chopper.Well~ although Chopper wasn't exactly easy to bully either. You have to know, his strength is also very strong!Watching Dr. Kureha's back, Ben revealed a gentle smile.He could sense that, at this moment, Dr. Kureha was like a mother entrusting her most beloved son to someone else.It seemed she had completely trusted their group."Rest assured, we won't let you down." Ben's lips curled up. "Or rather, this is the most correct choice you have ever made~"After all, their Captain~ is the man who is going to be the Pirate King!Immediately, Ben walked outside without looking back; he needed to go find Luffy and explain some things."The correct choice, huh?" Dr. Kureha, leaning against the door, smiled. "What a brat who likes to talk big."In that case, let me see your resolve!Chopper has suffered psychological trauma and won't be so easily healed.And~ the Pirate King... That's not something easily achieved, you brats.Well~ time to go have some plum wine."Aren't these guys the same bunch we encountered before?" Zoro asked Sanji, who was nearby, while slashing."Yeah." Sanji kicked an enemy away and said with some annoyance, "Could they be here to get revenge on us?"Is it really worth it? To actually chase us all the way here."No, they are here for this country." Dolton's expression was grim. "The former tyrant, Wapol, has returned."Hasn't this bastard already left this place? Why come back? Damn it, what should we do?!"He's that king who took all the doctors away?!" Vivilooked at Wapol with disgust. "What a truly detestable guy."As a king of a country, instead of thinking about how to bring benefits to his people, he thinks about how to harm the country? Is this really something a king should do?"Indeed, he doesn't deserve to be king at all." Usoppalso looked disgusted."What did you say?!" Wapol shouted unhappily. "How dare you talk about me like that?""Men, take them down for me!"After commanding his subordinates to charge, Wapol took two of his confidants and headed into the distance.With so many troops, taking them down was no problem at all; what he needed to do now was go see how his castle was holding up.It had been abandoned for such a long time, it was probably frozen solid inside. It seemed it would take some time to clean it up."Where they are going?!" Usopp's expression changed as he looked at the direction Wapol and his men had left. "Will Luffy and the others be okay?"After all, carrying a patient up such a high place, will their bodies be okay?"Rest assured, Luffy and Ben are very strong." Sanjiwasn't worried at all; he was currently having fun kicking enemies.Not to mention anything else, those three people posed no threat in Sanji's eyes. If Ben used his bombs, he could easily kill them!Now what they needed to do was wipe out this whole group in front of them! Regardless of whether they were the Royal Army or whatever, since they had offended them, they all had to go down!After searching for a long time, Ben finally found Luffy outside building a snowman, and immediately said speechlessly, "What are you doing?""I'm competing with wild wolf armor to see who can build a better snowman!" Luffy turned his head to look at Ben, showing his big white teeth. "Look, how well we both built them."Looking at Luffy's smug expression, Ben's mouth twitched. Where did you get that confidence?Glancing at Luffy's monster-like snowman, and then at the ice beauty created by wild wolf armor, Bencovered his face and said, "As long as you're happy.""Anyway, for the next day, I need to make something here, just letting you know in advance.""Oh, go ahead." Luffy waved his hand carelessly; he was having a great time playing with wild wolf armor.Ben shook his head and turned to leave towards the castle. Before he could even walk through the door, he heard Luffy shout, "Ah!""My snowman..." "Bastards, what are you doing?!"Hearing this, Ben turned his head and discovered that a few people had appeared at the edge of the cliff in the distance, and the snowman Luffy had made had already been shot to pieces by one of them with an arrow."Bahahahaha, who told you to build snowmen outside my castle!" Wapol snorted and said. "This is just a small lesson.""Next, I will eat you alive!"He remembered what happened before; those bastards rushed onto his ship and beat up most of his men, forcing him to surrender some doctors. This made him very unhappy.But this time, they were at his castle, and the advantage was his!"What's wrong?!" Hearing the commotion, Chopperand Dr. Kureha rushed out and quickly noticed the few people in the distance.
Wapol?" Dr. Kureha's brow furrowed. "How did you get back?""Hmph, do I need a reason to return to my own castle?""On the contrary, how dare you sneak in and live here while this King was away?!" Wapol's expression darkened instantly. "Do you realize you've committed a capital offense?!""And hanging such an ugly flag on my castle..." Wapol glanced at the pirate flag atop the castle, a look of disgust crossing his face.This was his territory; what did she mean by doing this?!"I have no interest in your broken castle, but this child insisted on hanging Hiriluk's pirate flag there.""Well, consider it defining this place as Hiriluk's grave."Chopper didn't speak, but glared fiercely at Wapol.He would never hand this place over. This was the bastard who ordered the attack on the Doctor back then; otherwise, he wouldn't have died so early!Moreover, a person like him didn't deserve to be the king of this country!"Bahahahahaha!""You say this is a grave? For that idiot doctor?" Wapol said mockingly. "Is he even worthy?""To dare hang that rotten doctor's flag on this King's sacred castle...""Burn that flag for me, now!"It was truly eyesore!I'll execute you all in a moment!Chopper's gaze suddenly became incredibly fierce, and his whole body shifted into his hybrid form."I won't let you enter this castle, absolutely not!"Just as Chopper was about to act, Luffy rushed forward without a word and landed a heavy punch right on Wapol's face.He almost knocked him straight off the mountain peak!"What do you think you're doing?!" Wapolscrambled up, startled by the cliff edge right next to him, and jumped up to yell at Luffy. "Do you want to die?!""Do you know who you're hitting?!""Don't you dare talk about the Jolly Roger like that!" Luffy looked at Wapol with fury. "Someone like you doesn't understand the meaning of a pirate flag at all...""Luffy..." Chopper stared blankly at Luffy's back, not understanding why Luffy's reaction was so intense."Don't make me laugh. What meaning could a pirate flag possibly have?" Wapol curled his lip disdainfully. "It's nothing more than a symbol for a bunch of trash sailing the seas."What, did they think attaching some special meaning to it made them not trash?Compared to royalty like him, they were just garbage!This time, even Ben was enraged."Trash?" Ben stepped out one pace at a time. "If we're talking about trash, that would be you!""Fleeing with your subordinates the moment danger struck, abandoning the entire country.""Now that the enemy is gone, you have the nerve to come back and call yourself King?""Have you no shame? Does someone like you even deserve to be called royalty?""You're a far cry from the royal friends I know!"Compared to Vivi, this guy wasn't even fit to carry her shoes!Wapol ground his teeth at Ben, his eyes looking as if they wanted to kill him. "Sharp-tongued brat, I hope you'll still be laughing in a moment.""Watch me blow that pirate flag to bits!"Enraged, Wapol immediately activated his fruit ability, and his body underwent a drastic transformation.A large cannon actually grew out of his arm!Without any further nonsense, Wapol launched an attack.Bang!The cannonball flew out, heading straight for the pirate flag in the sky, and a violent explosion followed.Boom!"Bahahahaha! What bullshit pirate flag? It got blown up just the same!" Wapol laughed triumphantly."You!" Chopper rushed forward in a rage. "I'm going to kill you!""Chopper!"Luffy's voice caught Chopper's attention. He looked up to find that Luffy had jumped to the top at some point, holding the pirate flag in his hand.Although Luffy's clothes looked tattered, the pirate flag in his hand hadn't suffered any damage!At that moment, Chopper was stunned.He didn't understand why this person he had just met was willing to go to such lengths for him, even risking his life to protect this flag."The pirate flag is fine," Luffy said, looking down at the others. "As long as I'm here, I won't let him hurt this flag.""Hey, hippo.""When you said you were a pirate, you were talking complete nonsense.""Those of you who become pirates without putting your lives on the line will never understand the meaning of this Jolly Roger."This was something worth protecting even if it meant gambling their lives!"That guy..." Chopper looked at Luffy, slightly dazed. To him, did the pirate flag mean the same thing?"I don't know whose pirate flag this is, but it's a flag that carries a life's oath.""It's not a flag that people like you can snap on a whim while laughing!"Hearing Luffy's declaration, Chopper felt his entire being shaken.Is this what a pirate is...He wanted it, he really wanted it!He also wanted to become a pirate like Luffy!"It's time to make a move." Ben pushed up his glasses and slowly walked over to the wild wolf armor, sitting inside. "Luffy, it's okay if I send them flying, right?""Yeah!" Luffy looked fiercely at Wapol and the others. "Leave the one in the middle to me."Chapter 64: The Powerful wild wolf armor!Watching Ben's retreating back, Chopper paused for a moment, then said somewhat anxiously, "This is my fight. You have no reason to get involved.""Even if I don't have comrades, I can still...""Who says you don't have comrades!" Benimmediately interrupted Chopper, while Luffy also shouted from above, "We are your comrades!""Let's go!""Oh!"Luffy pulled himself from the roof, launching himself down like a projectile, and slammed a heavy punch into Wapol's abdomen, sending him flying backward.However, this time, because his body weight had increased, he didn't fly too far."Dammit, don't you dare hurt Lord Wapol!" The two guards roared and prepared to rush forward, but Ben appeared in front of them in the blink of an eye, grabbing their fists. "You two, please do not disturb our Captain's battle."He then threw one of them near Chopper and said, "Chopper, can you handle this guy?"Although he could have easily finished them all off, he hoped Chopper could shatter this nightmare himself.Because they were the ones who killed Chopper's foster father!"Yeah!""Piece of cake!" Chopper immediately walked over, his gaze incredibly fierce.He was going to avenge Dr. Hiriluk with his own hands!"You think you can defeat me?" the guard holding a longbow said disdainfully. "A mere reindeer dares to talk big."Chopper didn't care about the other's attitude; instead, he looked at him very seriously and shouted, "My name is Tony Tony Chopper.""This is the name given to me by the greatest doctor in the world!""Even if the Doctor forgave you, I will never forgive you for mocking the Doctor's way of life!"Chopper's roar echoed through the heights, and anyone could hear his determination.Dr. Kureha began to laugh. "Our little boy has grown up."Go, Chopper.In your own way!The corners of Ben's and Luffy's mouths curled up; clearly, Chopper's words made them very happy.This is how a man should be. Repaying evil with kindness?No, a man should repay kindness with kindness and injustice with justice!Since they dared to mock him, then beat them until they can't open their mouths!"Let's go!""Oh!"On Luffy's side, he swung his arms and attacked Wapol frantically, and Ben was not to be outdone.However, the battle on his side was much more direct.After casually tossing the guard aside, Ben made a provocative gesture. "Come, don't say I didn't give you a chance.""Don't look down on me!" The guard scrambled up with a contorted face and roared, "I am an Admiralunder His Majesty Wapol! How could I possibly lose to a mere pirate!""Die!""Wild Dance Boxing!!" His arms flailed frantically as if swinging at random, but the force hitting the wild wolf armor was not light at all!This surprised Ben slightly, but he was relieved once he thought about the uniqueness of this world.Never mind the special fighting styles; all sorts of strange and bizarre races existed, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
Facing the opponent's attack, Ben controlled the wild wolf armor, standing calmly with his arms crossed as he watched the enemy."Too light. You can't even make me take a single step back."It couldn't even trigger his shock absorbers, which showed just how weak this person was."How is this possible?!" The guard looked at the wild wolf armor in shock. "The power of my every punch is at least a ton!"Why was there no effect at all?This was just too unbelievable!"A ton?" Ben tilted his head. "Why does it feel like you're just tickling me?"Hearing Ben's mocking voice, the guard's face immediately flushed red. "Don't underestimate me, you bastard!""Take this, Heavy Hammer!"The guard exerted force with his feet, his whole body dancing in the air before spinning 360 degrees and slamming a heavy punch onto Ben's wild wolf armor."Clang!"The heavy attack struck the armor, producing a dull thud."Hmm, not bad." Ben nodded appreciatively. "That move had at least several tons of force, barely enough to trigger my shock absorbers.""It's truly not easy for someone like you to achieve this level.""If converted, it's roughly the strength of a pirate worth tens of millions.""That's all."Looking at the enemy who had become somewhat dazed from the counter-shock force, Ben calmly extended a hand in front of him and asked, "Do you know the One-inch punch?""What do you mean?""A One-inch punch is a technique that can explode with incredibly powerful force within a very short distance~" Ben revealed a devilish smile, "Just like this~"He clenched his fist and slammed a heavy punch directly onto the opponent's head."Crack~""Whoosh!"The sound of a skull shattering rang out, and the guard was sent flying.Finally, he fell from the mountain peak, plummeting toward the base of the mountain.Although his skull wasn't completely pulverized, his brain had already been destroyed by the blow. Combined with the fall from such a height, there was absolutely no way he could survive.After finishing this, Ben calmly stepped out of the wild wolf armor. "I've settled things on my end; I'll leave the other two to you guys."Ben waved his hand and turned to walk toward the castle. However, to be safe, he left the wild wolf armor behind, ready to deal with any emergencies at any time."A fine invention." Dr. Kureha said with some emotion as she looked at the wild wolf armor Benleft behind. "I now believe you can invent something that changes the seasons.""This is just the beginning." Ben smiled. "That person was too weak; he couldn't bring out the true strength of the wild wolf armor at all."It could be said that he had completely crushed his opponent.The only ones who could make him use his real strength would be those at the level of the Shichibukai.For example, Crocodile!"Hmph, what an immodest brat." Dr. Kureha snorted and then asked, "Are you going to make that thing now?""Yes." Ben nodded, glancing at the two groups fighting in the distance. "Their battles don't need my interference.""Besides, I've left an insurance policy, so I'm no longer needed here."Hearing this, Dr. Kureha glanced at the wild wolf armor standing nearby and nodded inwardly."Alright, go ahead.""Mhm."After watching Ben leave, Dr. Kureha turned her gaze back to the two people fighting in the distance.In her experienced eyes, defeating the enemies was only a matter of time.Setting aside that useless Wapol, the guard with the bow and arrows was also much weaker than Chopper.Unless those two fought together, but unfortunately, one had been taken out by Ben.Sure enough, after Chopper used his Brain Point to analyze the enemy's weakness, he finished him off with a Cherry Blossom Hoof Cross.On Luffy's side, he also sent Wapol's fat body flying, looking like he would fly straight off the island.As a Devil Fruit User, if he fell into the sea, he would be doomed.However~That had nothing to do with her.Luffy, having sent his enemy flying, turned his head to look back. Seeing that Chopper had also defeated his enemy, a smile appeared on his face. "You beat the enemy? That's amazing, Reindeer!""Is... is that so?" Chopper's face immediately turned red; he was clearly shy.Dr. Kureha watched this scene with a smile. She was very happy that her little man had found friends.No...Partners."Eh?" Luffy looked left and right. "Where did Bengo?""Oh, he said he was going to invent something that can change the weather of this country." Dr. Kurehapointed behind her. "He just left.""Really!" Luffy's eyes instantly sparkled with stars. "Change the weather of a country?""That's so cool!"No, he had to go see.After Luffy entered the castle, little Chopper pulled at his hat and looked at the scenery in the distance, saying, "Dr. Kureha...""That person said I am his...""Partner."At this moment, little Chopper was in a very good mood, and the pain in his heart seemed to have been healed.At this moment, he desperately wanted to be with these people.Dr. Kureha smiled, then sighed inwardly. 'It seems our little man will be leaving with these people soon.'Although Dr. Kureha had always wanted Chopperto go out and explore with them, now that the time had actually come, she felt a bit reluctant.Forget it, how can a man grow without going out to explore?She couldn't be soft-hearted.Live according to your heart's desires, Chopper.Perhaps sensing Dr. Kureha's feelings, Chopperslowly raised his head to look into the distance, making a firm decision in his heart.Now he just had to wait for Ben to finish making that thing.He hoped he wasn't lying to him.Just then, an elevator suddenly rose nearby, and several people stepped out from it."Hmm?" Zoro looked around, a hint of doubt in his eyes. "Is the battle already over?"Usopp, who was hiding behind Zoro, immediately stepped forward upon hearing this and said proudly, "It seems my crew's strength is quite formidable!"Dolton, who came out from behind clutching a wound, looked a bit relieved. "Is it already over?""Dolton?" Dr. Kureha looked at Dolton in surprise. "You guys are...""And how did you get those injuries?"If she remembered correctly, this guy was a zoan type Devil Fruit User, so how did he get hurt so badly?"We encountered Wapol's subordinates." Vivi, who walked up from behind, sighed. "Uncle Dolton was injured by the enemy while trying to protect us."She felt quite guilty about it."That doesn't matter. More than that, I want to know where Wapol and the others went."Looking at Dolton's serious gaze, Dr. Kureha sighed; he really was a serious man."He has already been defeated by Straw Hat and Chopper." Dr. Kureha pointed to the only enemy corpse still present nearby. "Look, there's one here.""The others have already been sent flying.""Is that so." Hearing this, Dolton relaxed and collapsed directly. "Then I can rest easy.""Hey, Uncle Dolton!"Seeing Dolton collapse, the group panicked.Is he going to die?"Honestly, you're already so badly injured, yet you don't know how to stay still." Dr. Kureha was somewhat speechless, then shouted, "Carry him inside for me; I'll treat him."Don't you dare die out here.Drum Island needs a new king now, and Dolton, who is loved by everyone, is the best candidate!For now, she would just wait for that brat's move and hope he wouldn't disappoint her.Otherwise~Hmph!Chapter 65: Weather Changer - Cherry Blossoms All Over the Mountain!After a day's time, Ben finally manufactured the Weather Changer."Is this the thing?" Dr. Kureha looked at the huge device placed behind the castle, somewhat surprised. "Does this thing really work?"This thing looked quite ordinary.It was like a giant upside-down top placed on the ground."Don't underestimate this." The corners of Ben's mouth curled up. "This is a machine I spent a whole day building; how could it not be effective?""I've already set it up; from March to October every year, it will be the warm season, during which various vegetables and grains can be planted
By the end of October, it will gradually start to get colder, until it begins to snow in mid-November."This was the timeline he had planned in advance; after all, the people of this country were used to winter. If they lost the ice and snow, they would find it very difficult to adjust.Furthermore, since most of the animals on this island had adapted to winter, Ben specifically set the temperature during the warm season to a level they could tolerate.This way, everyone would be happy."Is there no need for additional manual operation?""No need." Ben shook his head. "Everything inside is set according to a program; it will automatically adjust when the time comes."After a few decades, the environment here might even be able to maintain two distinct seasons automatically without the need for machine adjustments."Truly a Genius invention." Dr. Kureha did not hold back her praise; she had never heard of anyone being able to create something like this.Even that person in the Marine, who is hailed as being eight hundred years ahead of the world, probably couldn't achieve this, right?This is a large-scale and continuous change to an entire island's weather!"Oh, right." Ben said, as if remembering something, "Don't touch this thing. It has a built-in cloaking function, so there's no need to worry about it being discovered."He then took out a remote control and activated the cloaking mode.Under Dr. Kureha's astonished gaze, the massive 340 Weather Modifier flickered once and then vanished.It was as if it had never existed."I've considered a problem." Ben said with a melancholy expression, hands in his pockets, "This is a Winter Island. Once such a drastic change occurs, people will definitely come to investigate the situation.""I believe you should be aware of this as well."Dr. Kureha nodded; if nothing else, the World Government would definitely send people to check it out."You have thought things through very well." Dr. Kureha said with some emotion, "I feel very relieved leaving Chopper to you guys."Just now, she had even been considering building a bunker here to hide the weather modifier.Although that would look even more suspicious, it would at least be better than leaving it directly exposed to the air.Ben smiled. "You won't regret today's decision.""This device doesn't require manual operation, and it can recharge itself by absorbing solar energy.""So, other than us, don't tell anyone about the existence of this thing.""Just treat it as...""The island itself undergoing a mutation."Dr. Kureha nodded; she understood the stakes and agreed with Ben's reasoning."Alright, I'm going to make the final preparations~" Ben gave a mischievous grin. "To put on a grand show for a certain reindeer little friend~"Watching Ben's departing back, Dr. Kureha laughed, thinking of something."Hiriluk, perhaps you never dreamed that the illness of this country would be cured by this group of pirates~""No, I should say it was cured by Chopper and the others."After all, they are already crewmates now~..."Hey, Ben, it's so early in the morning, what did you drag me out for?" Usopp said with a look of dissatisfaction. "I was sleeping so soundly."No one would feel good being dragged out of their warm bed first thing in the morning."Shut your mouth." Ben said crossly, "I've been busy all night without a wink of sleep, how do you have the nerve to keep sleeping!"Usopp:???What does whether you sleep or not have to do with me?"In other words, that thing you were researching was a success?" Sanji looked at Ben in surprise. "It can really change the weather of this island?"If it were true, then this was no longer just technology.This was practically the power of a devil!"Hmph, is there any invention I can't make when I set my mind to it?" Ben said proudly. "It's just changing the weather."The even more impressive stuff is yet to come!Sanji fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, then suddenly adopted a fawning expression and leaned in toward Ben, saying, "Ahem, so, Ben...""Can you make something like an invisibility suit?"He might not necessarily encounter the right Devil Fruit, but there was an inventor right here!Ben looked at Sanji in shock, his expression saying 'I can't believe you're that kind of person.'"Don't look at me like that, this is my dream." Sanjisaid righteously. "I might not ever find the Clear-Clear Fruit, so...""I refuse." Ben said solemnly. "I will not research such a thing; get that idea out of your head."Hmph, even if I did research it, I wouldn't give it to you.I'd have to keep such a good thing for myself."Don't be like that." Sanji still wasn't giving up. "That's my...""Perverted cook, you really never change." Zorolooked at Sanji with disgust, his eyes as if he were looking at trash."Ah?!" Sanji immediately turned his verbal fire on Zoro. "What the hell do you know?""You directionless Marimo.""What did you say!!"Watching the two of them about to fight again, a vein popped on Ben's forehead as he roared in annoyance, "You two bastards, I brought you here to help, not to cause trouble, you hear me!"Seriously, if only Nami were able to move.If she were standing here, would these two bastards dare to act up?She'd use physical persuasion directly."Hmph." Sanji snorted and said to Zoro with annoyance, "I'm giving Ben Face, so I'll let you off this time."Zoro also snorted, but he ignored Sanji and walked over to Ben to ask, "What do you need us to do?""Take these." Ben took several bags out of his pocket, each filled with a large quantity of seeds."These are cherry blossom seeds. Go into the forest and drop one every certain distance.""Is this useful?" Usopp took the seeds and looked at them, finding nothing strange. "In this world of ice and snow, there's no point in throwing these down, right?""What do you know?" Ben rolled his eyes. "Anyway, we have less than two hours. We must be back at the mountain peak in two hours.""I'm going to show you all what a miracle looks like!"Sanji and Zoro glanced at each other, both seeing a competitive glint in the other's eyes."I'll definitely be back before you!" they said in unison."Stop copying me!" they shouted together again."Hmph!" Both snorted simultaneously.Watching the two of them turn and leave, Ben's mouth twitched.Why don't you two just get a room already.Shaking his head, he looked at the seeds in his hand and a smile appeared. "In two hours, these seeds will grow at an incredible speed.""I hope Chopper likes the gift I prepared for him~"These are real cherry blossoms!..."It's so quiet. Have they already left?" Chopper sat on the roof looking at the distant scenery, his heart feeling very complicated.There was relief, there was a sense of loss, but mostly there was regret.Actually, he quite liked this group of people; it was a pity he couldn't go out on an adventure with them.Just then, Luffy roared from below, "Hey!""Reindeer!""Come out to sea and be a pirate with us!"Chopper was stunned. "No way, he's still looking for me?!"For some reason, hearing Luffy's voice, a surge of joy rose in Chopper's heart.Because this person was still looking for him, still willing to take him along!Thinking of this, Chopper jumped down from the roof and approached Luffy.And Ben and the others had also returned to the mountain peak at this time."Oh?" Glancing at Chopper and Luffy, Ben rubbed his chin and said, "Is he about to invite him to join the crew?"With that thought, Ben was no longer in a hurry."Oh, so you were here." Luffy looked at the appearing Chopper and said with delight, "Let's go, come out to sea and be a pirate with me!"Chopper grit his teeth. Looking at Luffy's sincere Face, he really wanted to agree, but..."That's impossible.""Why?" Luffy was confused. Why couldn't they go to sea together?Didn't that old lady already agree?"Because I'm a reindeer!" Chopper shouted intentionally, "I have antlers, I have hooves, and I even have a blue nose!""Of course, even though I really want to be a pirate, but...""I'm not a companion for humans, I'm a monster!""Someone like me can't be your crewmate!!""So I..." Chopper bit his lip and said, "Thank you so much for inviting me, but I can't go.""We'll have a chance to meet again. If you miss me, come here to find—" Chopper's words were cut off by Luffy. "Shut up, let's go!"
