Luffy woke up in bed early in the morning.
His movements upon waking were unusually wild; he rolled out of bed, still covered by the pristine white blanket, and before the blanket even fell off, he had already grabbed the window frame and rushed out.
At the hospital entrance, Chopper, who was pushing an injured person in a wheelchair, vaguely saw Luffy's figure and was so frightened that he quickly shouted.
Luffy!
You're still recovering from your injury; you can't leave the hospital!
"If you do that, you'll get a scolding from Dr. Kureha!"
"Ha ha!"
Hearing Chopper's shout, Luffy laughed and waved his hand.
"Whatever, let them scold me, I'm not afraid of old ladies!"
Uncle Gawain and Uncle Mihawk's fight was so exciting, I couldn't miss it!
To heal my injury, eating more meat and drinking more milk will do the trick!
I'm super healthy!
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy grabbed the ship's side with his rubber arms and swung directly onto the mast.
He sat there cross-legged, eating heartily while intently gazing into the distance, holding a pig's leg in his hand.
Under the rising sun, Mihawk's tiny figure was pinning the coiled dragon to the ground and beating it!
Kaido and Mihawk were already of similar strength, and now Kaido had been brutally beaten by Gion, so after only one night, he was no longer able to confront Mihawk head-on.
Even with his enormous size, it's clear to anyone with eyes that if the war continues, Kaido will soon sacrifice his life to help Mihawk slay the dragon!
While Mihawk was unleashing his sword energy, Gawain and the Big Mom remained locked in a stalemate.
At this moment, the Big Mom had recovered from her madness. The continuous loss of physical strength had allowed her to regain the intelligence that a queen should possess as early as the early hours of the morning, two hours earlier.
Logically speaking, this kind of Big Mom should be able to somewhat mitigate her disadvantage.
But time was of the essence. The moment the Big Mom awoke, she discovered that her Homies, whom she had nurtured for so long, had all defected to the enemy...
Okay, even though the middle- Big Mom has regained her senses, her fighting style is even wilder than when she was in a frenzy.
So much so that the only difference between this Big Mom and someone who's gone completely insane is that she's fighting while simultaneously cursing and swearing...
Gawain could understand the Big Mom's feelings. Big Mom guessed that at that moment, she was like a modern person waking up to find their phone gone...
On the mast, Luffy looked around with longing in his eyes!
At this very moment, the eastern part of Wano Country is occupied by Gawain and Big Mom, where endless lightning is spreading, inspiring awe and fear.
As for the western part of Wano Country, Kaido had already landed on the ground, using his tail and claws to barely entangle with Mihawk.
His enormous body destroyed countless buildings, and even smashed more than one mountain into pieces.
Witnessing such a battle, Luffy licked his lips enviously, swallowing the grease as he spoke longingly.
"These are the true strongmen. Even though countless people are fighting bravely, my eyes can only be drawn to the battle between them!"
Haha, I want to become that kind of man too, I need to work harder!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy casually removed the bandages from his body. Although the injury on his shoulder was not minor, it was ultimately not a concern for his monstrous physique.
The wound inflicted by the Seastone Bullets was ultimately too small; Luffy ate and drank his fill for a few meals, it was almost completely healed...
He gently moved his arms, then leaped onto the deck and charged towards the battlefield!
Just as Luffy forward, Isuka's figure passed right by Luffy. Upon seeing Luffy, Isuka frowned.
"Hey, Luffy, your injuries shouldn't be healed yet, right?"
"Don't say that, Sister Isuka. I'm perfectly fine now, and I'm ready to go to the battlefield!"
"If you don't believe me, look, even Grandpa Zephyr didn't come out to stop me, did he?"
After saying that, Luffy looked at Isuka's hand and continued to ask curiously.
"Let's not talk about that anymore, big sister. Anyway, you don't need to worry about me."
Is the girl in your hand also an enemy? She just looks like a timid little girl, right?
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy looked puzzled and asked.
"Hey lady, you didn't kidnap that girl over there, did you? No way!"
"What are you thinking about!"
Faced with Luffy's questioning, Isuka angrily picked up the girl and said coldly.
"Even if I'm not a Marine now, justice is still written on my cloak. How could I possibly kidnap any innocent people!"
Don't let her young age fool you, this woman is one of the Flying Six of the Beasts Pirates!
This guy attacked our ship before the Big Mom joined the battle, but his teammates were held back by Sabo.
She came quickly and ran away quickly. I couldn't catch her last time, so I brought her back with me!
At this point, Isuka looked at Luffy suspiciously and continued to ask.
"Speaking of which, did Professor Zephyr really allow you to return to the battlefield?"
You'd better make that right, otherwise if you get injured again, Teacher Zephyr won't give you another chance to recover easily!
"Of course! Don't worry, big sister, I'll be fine!"
Luffy quickly answered and then hurriedly ran away.
Watching Luffy's Luffy figure, Isuka shook her head, then picked up Ulti and continued walking towards the prison area.
After all, the other party is Devil Fruit User, especially since their ability is a relatively rare Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit.
It's always better to capture such a person alive if possible.
Thinking this, Isuka dragged Ulti into the prison. Upon seeing Iska's arrival, Perona, who was lying on a beach chair under a parasol, gently lifted her sunglasses.
"Hmm, it's Isuka. You've got another victory?"
Wow, that's impressive! I really envy you guys for being able to defeat so many enemies.
Unlike me, I'm utterly useless; all I can do is guard the prison gates here..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Perona waved her hand dejectedly, and a Negative Hollow immediately flew out from behind her and landed on the unconscious Ulti.
Mingming Ulti was still unconscious, but the next second, she was slumped forward in a dejected position, and even the blood flowing from the corners of her mouth was mixed with a lot of drool...
Who knows what kind of negative torment she's enduring while she's unconscious...
Seeing Ulti's miserable state, Isuka trembled slightly.
Because Perona's Negative Hollow can temper the mind, most of the ship's elite warriors have probably experienced the effects of the Negative Hollow.
As it turns out, aside from the strong individuals who can use Armament Haki to completely isolate ghosts...
Without exception, everyone else was defeated in one fell swoop by the Negative Hollow.
Neither the determined Luffy nor the incredibly determined Zoro could withstand it for even a moment.
Isuka herself once stuck her little bottom out high and said a lot of things that made her feel ashamed.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of herself back then...
"Perona, your ability is truly terrifying!"
After saying something, Isuka quickly released Ulti, letting Ulti continue to bend forward in despair.
Immediately, soldiers guarding the prison came over and dragged Ulti inside.
In the brief moment the prison gates opened, Isuka vaguely saw at least two hundred guys inside, their buttocks sticking up high, drooling unknowingly.
Negative Hollow were slowly hovering around those people, occasionally letting out a wicked laugh.
The scene made Isuka shudder, and she immediately wanted to get as far away from there as possible...
Hearing Isuka's words, Perona shook her head in disappointment.
"Well, no matter how fun an ability is, in my hands it can only be used on powerful individuals who have lost consciousness."
I'm so useless! I wish I could be like you guys and accompany Uncle Gawain to the most dangerous battlefields!
Suddenly, Isuka's eyes lit up, and she became surprisingly excited.
She clenched her small fists tightly, then said excitedly.
"That's right, I have to fight the fiercest enemy to be worthy of your care, Uncle!"
I'm so excited!
Hehe, looks like I'm in my euphoric phase again, that's great!
At this point, Perona waved goodbye from afar.
"Hey, over at the hospital, you can send the soldiers with mental illnesses over now!"
"Receive!!!"
Following the doctor's response, someone immediately led over with hundreds of demoralized soldiers.
On the Dark Bird Ship, most of the soldiers had never experienced actual combat. Although they were well-trained, psychological problems inevitably arose.
Fortunately...
With Gawain's careful guidance, Perona has mastered the use of the Positive Hollow.
She opened her arms, and a gigantic ghost, thirty meters tall, suddenly appeared behind her.
This ghost has a flame-like color, but what burns on its body is not flame, but an almost tangible fighting spirit!
As Perona waved her hand, the Positive Hollow yelled and crawled on the ground, rolling towards the soldiers.
The next moment, everyone who had been crushed by this ghost instantly revealed excited expressions.
"I still have a lifetime of fighting for Gawain, how can I give up like this!"
"It's just losing an arm, I can still practice left-handed swordsmanship!"
"They call me Bakugan Boy, but that's okay, because I still have one left!"
"It's just a series of failures. I'll definitely succeed next time. If not, then the time after that!"
"I came, I saw, I conquered!!!"
"To live, be a hero; to die, be a ghost of valor!"
"Men must fight!!!"
"For the sake of the Dark Bird!"
"For Lord Gawain!!!"
"Let go of me, I can't stop my knife anymore!!!"
In an instant, exhilarating sounds filled the area around the prison.
Seeing everyone's renewed spirits, Perona finally showed a satisfied look.
"It's still best this way. The ability to cheer everyone up is the best ability after all!"
Unfortunately, my strength is still too poor; I can only use it on a few hundred people at the same time.
If I could help hundreds of thousands of people at the same time, then I would truly deserve Uncle Gawain's kindness.
I'm still so useless...
Why..."
Perhaps it was due to Perona's nature, but in just a moment, Perona relapsed into a period of melancholy, and the Positive Hollow vanished in the blink of an eye.
In the distance, as the Positive Hollow rapidly dissipated, the doctors who had heard Perona's words widened their eyes in astonishment.
"Miss Perona, you'd better be more careful!"
"Yes, it's not that you're not good enough, it's that you're too inconsistent in your efforts and your schedules are too irregular!"
"What a pessimistic woman she is! Even when she tries her best to be positive, she can only stay positive for less than two minutes!"
"Quickly, take everyone away! We finally managed to cheer everyone up; we can't let them become negative again!!!"
In a flurry of activity, the psychologists took the patients away, and the patients quickly moved on to new lives.
Those who were uninjured immediately picked up their weapons excitedly and charged back into the Flower Capital Meat Grinder.
Those with injuries, however, continued their journey to the operating table with a strong will to live and a determination to survive.
In the operating room, Crocus lazily puffed on his pipe while performing surgery.
Chopper rushed to Crocus's side and said in a panic.
"Saffron, we're running out of medicine!"
Even Blueno's reserves in the Door-Door World are almost gone!
That was enough medicine and blood for 300,000 people, and it was almost used up in less than three days!
What should we do? Am I just supposed to watch everyone die because of me...?
"Shut up, Chopper!"
Before Chopper could finish speaking, Crocus casually picked up his pipe and tapped Chopper on the head.
"How can you say such discouraging things when you're a doctor!"
Furthermore, if your patients heard these words, didn't you consider the panic they might experience?
After saying that, Crocus casually handed his patient to Chopper, then turned around and picked up his harpoon.
"You take over the surgery on this patient, Raccoon. I have more important things to do!"
Since I, as a doctor, am no longer able to save more people, then let me, as a pirate, save everyone!
As soon as he finished speaking, Chrollas rushed out without hesitation, harpoon in hand.
As soon as he stepped outside, he roared at his subordinates.
"All doctors and female nurses stay where they are, and all male nurses come with me!"
Our medications are running low, but no matter what, we cannot let any patient who could have lived die on the operating table!
Crocus suddenly raised his right hand, his harpoon pointing straight towards the Flower Capital!
"The action team was too slow; they didn't manage to move all the medicine from Wano Country in two whole days. When it comes to looting, these half-baked guys are really terrible!"
Let us doctors teach them how to rob more efficiently!
Another thing is that those guys in the Finance Department always like to use the opportunity of calculating the price of looted goods to delay the distribution of looted supplies!
This time, we not only have to deal with the enemy blocking our way, but we also have to seize all the medical supplies that the Finance Department hasn't finished tallying and bring them back to the ship as soon as possible!!!
After saying that, Crocus took the lead and rushed off the ship with more than 700 male nurses.
Suddenly, a peculiar scene appeared on the streets of the Flower Capital: groups of people in white coats.
This group of doctors started their advance from the outskirts of Flower Capital and reached all the major hospitals in Flower Capital in just half an hour.
Not only did they deliver the final straw to the medical facility they were working on, but even the money-grubbing actuaries that Nami had trained got a good beating from Crocus...
