"Stop talking nonsense, you old hag!!!"
When faced with Kureha's question, Hancock grabbed Kureha by the collar and yelled at her.
Answer my question first!
Is Gawain's condition really that serious?!
As soon as she finished speaking, Hancock turned her head sharply, watching Kureha's eyes widen even further.
Her pupils contracted further, and the ring-shaped focus within them became increasingly subtle.
Suddenly, she let out a fierce roar in Rayleigh's direction!
"Rayleigh!!!"
Stop right there!
There are more important things to do now!!!
"Why?"
Far away, Rayleigh was completely stunned by Hancock's roar.
As he sprinted forward, he glanced awkwardly at his knife.
My old knife is indeed not sharp enough anymore...
So he frowned, slowed down, and then stopped next to Hancock and Kureha.
Looking at Hancock, who was holding Kureha by the collar, Rayleigh asked thoughtfully.
"I just arrived. What's the situation at the scene? What happened to Gawain's coma?"
"The doctor said he's very ill!"
Hancock gestured towards Kureha with her chin as she spoke.
After hearing Hancock's words, Rayleigh looked at Kureha and said coldly.
"Since she's a doctor, let's put her down and hear what she has to say!"
After saying that, Rayleigh sheathed his sword and then crossed his arms.
Hancock remained silent for a moment, then gritted her teeth and put Kureha down.
As soon as Hancock released her, Kureha immediately ran off into the distance.
Before everyone's eyes, she picked up Chopper, who had been knocked unconscious by Yi Xiao and Yi Dao.
Kureha gently rubbed Chopper's head, and after making sure her brat was alright, she said quietly.
"I made a huge mistake; I really underestimated you guys."
I thought that the Celestial Dragon were still the same as before, with only a few foolish guards or CP troops protecting them!
Holy crap, the vice-captain of the Pirate King, a monster with Press-Press Fruit, a candidate Admiral in the Navy, and a Shichibukai!!!
What kind of lineup is this?!
Just then, Kuma landed right in front of them from the distant sky.
Upon seeing the Kuma, Kureha twitched her long, narrow nostrils.
"Okay, not one, but two Shichibukai!"
At the same time, Jinbe finally arrived late, dragging his chubby body to stand behind Rayleigh.
Kureha couldn't help but swallow.
"Three..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a violent sandstorm suddenly swept up in the distant sky!
As the storm moved rapidly, sand gradually gathered around the group, solidifying into the shape of Crocodile.
Upon seeing Crocodile's face clearly, Kureha rubbed her forehead in frustration.
Four!!!
Did I stumble upon the headquarters of Shichibukai?!
Or perhaps, you Shichibukai have reached some kind of agreement with the Celestial Dragon or Mary Geoise?
"There's no agreement, Doctor!"
Rayleigh interrupted Kureha, his brow furrowed as he spoke.
"We just got on the same ship because of one person's call."
As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh's brows furrowed, and a cold glint flashed across his glasses.
"If I were you, I wouldn't focus on trivial things!"
Tell me about our captain's condition, Doctor!
"Hmm~!"
Kureha pursed her lips, then picked up Chopper.
As she walked toward her rather damaged house, she spoke to the crowd.
"Gawain's situation is rather complicated. You guys are all strong individuals, so you should be able to understand the harm caused by overworking your bodies."
Gawain, there are currently no signs of any cumulative damage burst.
But his body was as if it were facing many near-death injuries every day; his core had already been damaged to a relatively dangerous degree.
You're lucky to have met me.
Otherwise, well, doctors who haven't personally used life energy and have emerged from this era wouldn't be able to see similar problems.
The world is not lacking in doctors, but being a doctor is ultimately a profession that requires continuous advancement through experience and accumulation.
In short, there are probably very few people in the world besides me who can identify and treat similar problems.
I have just given him my specially prepared nutritional solution.
As for what happened next...
I only need to modify the nutrient solution ratio to suit Gawain's physique, and then I can use this nutrient solution to make up for some of his consumption.
As for the future, let's talk about that later...
As soon as she finished speaking, Kureha happened to walk back to the front of her house.
She gently shook Chopper's hoof.
"Chopper, it's time to wake up. That girl needs you to prepare her medicine!"
"Huh?! Hu..."
Shaking him like that, Chopper finally woke up from his unconscious state. He looked around in confusion, then jumped out of Kureha's arms in a panic.
"Dr. Kureha, we've been attacked!!!"
Meteorite, shooting star!
Humans are so terrifying!!!
Screaming, Chopper deftly bristled, his fur standing on end as he spun around in front of Kureha.
Looking at her bratty son, Kureha gently patted Chopper's head.
"You're a doctor, the only thing you need to pay attention to is your patients!"
Whether the patient is in danger or not should not affect the doctor's treatment of the patient!
As soon as she finished speaking, Kureha gave Chopper a light kick, and Chopper immediately nodded and ran into the house.
But after he took two steps, his entire reindeer froze in place.
Because, belatedly, he finally realized the diverse range of people around him!!!
Seeing the astonished eyes of the crowd, sweat immediately beaded on Chopper's forehead, and he frantically waved his arms and legs.
"Ahhh, something's happened! Something's happened!!!"
"Dr. Kureha, I'm surrounded by so many terrifying humans!!!"
Upon hearing Chopper's voice, Rayleigh couldn't help but purse his lips.
"It's a tanuki that can talk?"
"Why?"
Upon hearing Rayleigh's words, Chopper, the entire reindeer, was in an uproar. In the blink of an eye, he forgot his panic and raised his head towards Rayleigh.
"It's clearly a reindeer, a reindeer!"
"I'm not some raccoon dog like you're talking about, you idiot!"
"Why?"
Rayleigh frowned in annoyance at the enraged Chopper.
"That's really going too far, Tanuki! I haven't been insulted in ages!"
"But I'm not human, you idiot!"
Chopper yelled at Rayleigh, but before Rayleigh could get angry, he was so frightened that he quickly hid in the distance.
Watching Chopper run off, Rayleigh narrowed his eyes and smiled at Kureha.
"Haha, doctor, your pet is really cute..."
"That's my son, not a pet, Dark King boy!"
Kureha corrected her, dissatisfied.
Rayleigh's eyelids twitched at Kureha's words.
"Woman, what did you call me?"
Kid?!
"Tch, you seventy-something kid, you think you can talk about seniority with a 136-year-old guy like me!"
"While I was battling Kong on the high seas, your ship hadn't even set sail yet, kid!!!"
"I...?!!"
Rayleigh was shocked!
Looking at Kureha's aged face and her body, which was no different from that of a woman in her twenties or thirties.
At this moment, Rayleigh really wanted to steal a moment to consult Kureha about her health and wellness secrets.
He just wanted to know how to keep his body in the condition of someone in their twenties!
After all, this body, now in its seventies, while not quite beyond its capabilities, is certainly starting to feel the strain...
Fortunately, our reliable first mate ultimately knew what was most important.
So he suppressed his thoughts and instead reminded Kureha.
"Alright, you're too old for this, I won't talk to you about these things."
All I want to know is how you plan to treat Gawain, when the treatment will be effective, and how long Gawain's coma will last.
If possible, please try to wake him up as soon as possible!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh suddenly drew his knife.
"Back then, Roger led us to slaughter the nobleman and his entire kingdom because Gaban was insulted by a nobleman from a kingdom!"
I don't want to do such things anymore, but if Gawain doesn't wake up soon, then even if I don't want to, the Drum Kingdom will have to pay with its life!
I don't know what the Navy's rules are, and I don't care what the Celestial Dragon' rules are!
All I know is that if my captain encounters a problem somewhere, and if I cannot solve it...
Then I will completely resolve that situation!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh pointed his sword toward the dock.
"Doctor, I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer!"
Otherwise, Zephyr and the members of Black Ice Terrace would probably have already taken control of the town near the docks!
As for the entire Drum Kingdom, it's only a matter of time!
So, can Gawain regain consciousness?
"Damn it, of course you can, damn it!!!"
Kureha curled her lip in displeasure at Rayleigh's threat.
"Do you think I'm a quack doctor? As long as he's not dead, I can wake him up or make him faint!"
Sigh, I guess I made the wrong decision after all!
"Wait here, I'll wake him up right away!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Kureha walked dejectedly towards the broken living room.
At this moment, Gawain, who had been unconscious, had already been helped back to his chair by Yi Xiao.
Kureha approached Gawain, extended her black hand covered in Armament Haki, and gently pressed it against Gawain's left rib and armpit.
A moment later, Gawain slowly opened his eyes.
He didn't speak immediately; instead, he squinted and carefully surveyed his surroundings.
Upon seeing Rayleigh and the other officers of the Dark Bird Ship, Gawain let out a silent sigh.
At the same time, Hancock immediately tried to pounce on Gawain.
She's already climbed into Gawain's Gawain; she's just one step away from having a child with him!
She didn't want to lose Gawain at a time like this!
Just as Hancock lunged at Gawain, Gion grabbed Hancock's arm.
"Snake Princess, the Lord's health is very poor. Can't you hear what the doctor said!"
Now that the adult is awake, let the doctor treat him. Don't cause trouble for the doctor and Gawain!
"You!!!"
Snake Princess, feeling extremely wronged after being scolded by the rabbit, weakly moved closer to Gawain and gently took Gawain hand.
"My lord~."
"I'm here."
Gawain smiled slightly, gently stroking the Snake Princess's small paws with his right hand, and then lightly patting the back of her hand.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. On the contrary, I feel very relaxed now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain slowly stood up, shook his head gently, and then sighed softly.
"Rayleigh!"
Suddenly, he spoke.
How long was I unconscious?
"About ten minutes, Captain!"
Rayleigh responded with a composed smile.
Upon hearing this, Gawain nodded.
"Fortunately, it hasn't reached an unmanageable level yet."
I have no idea what you did while I was unconscious.
In short, whatever you did, just go back to being in a coma.
At this point, Gawain waved his hand gently, and seeing this, Rayleigh finally smiled with relief.
"Haha, this nonchalant attitude is definitely you!"
There were no lasting effects, nor was there any strange or unusual ability to control my thoughts.
Alright, I can finally relax. In that case, I'll head back to the boat and go fishing.
Also, Brother Yixiao should have already dealt with Wapol, so shouldn't we, Drum Kingdom, prepare a concert for Little Uta?
"Certainly."
Gawain said with a smile.
"Uta's concert can minimize the confusion and unease that the change of regime brings to the residents of the Drum Kingdom."
She is a sharp weapon in our hands, a blade of kindness.
By the way, remind Uta wear more clothes; it's really cold here.
At this point, Gawain turned to look at Kureha, whose face was full of reluctance.
"Sometimes, I really admire people like Kureha."
Even though it's the dead of winter, she can still show her belly button, haha!
"Cut...!"
Hearing Gawain's teasing, Kureha went to the side and picked up a bottle of liquor.
"Sexiness and elegance are the ultimate truths that accompany women throughout their lives, and are also the key to longevity!"
"Yes, longevity is something to aspire to."
But, Kureha ..."
At this moment, Gawain's expression turned slightly cold, and he spoke to Kureha in a cold voice.
"I want you to know that I have no curiosity about your secret to longevity, and my current age makes me completely indifferent to the so-called lifespan!"
Therefore, your secret to longevity will not be a reason for me to tolerate you.
Some people shouldn't faint easily. Even if you do faint, it's your responsibility to wake me up as quickly as possible.
Jokes are fine in moderation, but don't...
"Thump!!!"
Before Gawain could finish speaking, Rayleigh smacked him on the head.
Rayleigh retracted his fist and slapped Hancock away, then lifted Gawain up.
"Captain, your body is in this state, so don't bother emphasizing anything to the doctor!"
Even Roger got a bloody head from Crocus back then because he didn't follow the doctor's orders!
We've already told Dr. Kureha what we needed to say, so you don't need to repeat it to her. Just be a good patient!
"I'll be the bad guy; you have to be the good patient. You must listen to me on this matter!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh changed his fierce expression and instead gave Kureha a pleading look.
"Dr. Kureha, cough cough..."
My captain has always been this domineering, so please don't blame him. You must ensure he has a healthy body!
Our entire team, the future progress and development of the world, and the dreams of myself and everyone here are all pinned on this captain!
I cannot lose this lad, and neither can any of you!
So, please help me!!!
After speaking, Rayleigh bowed deeply to Kureha with utmost respect.
In that instant Rayleigh bowed, unbeknownst to everyone in the Dark Bird Group, their waists...
They all bent down for Kureha!
Happy Qixi Festival, everyone!
But I'm not happy!!!
Because I don't have a girlfriend!!!
Please help me soothe my heart!
Tickets, please!!!
