Discarding the absurd thoughts in his mind, Vic cut off Gion's clothes piece by piece. The golden scissors were quite useful and very sharp.
Afterwards, Vic took all the cut-off clothes out of the bathtub. At this time Gion's body was still covered with a large area of bloodstains. Fortunately, it was not long enough for the blood to coagulate and stick the clothes to her body.
Vic stretched out his hands and used the running water to wash Gion's body inch by inch. At this moment, he had no other thoughts in his mind but to heal Gion.
After cleaning all the blood off Gion's body Vic carried her out of the bathtub. At this point, there were no more wounds on Gion's body, but she felt like she was made of rubber.
Vic drained all the bloody water from the bathtub before adding warm water, and then put Gion in. At this point, the body needed to be warmed by external sources; clothes and blankets were no longer sufficient. The body's internal energy needed to repair the injuries, which is why many seriously injured people are prone to feeling cold.
Looking at Gion lying unconscious in the bathtub with her brows furrowed, Vic knew that this was the body's instinctive protective mechanism. To prevent her consciousness from collapsing from the pain, unconsciousness was the best outcome. At this moment Gion's subconscious was probably still worried about Vic's safety, which made Vic's heart ache again.
"When Gion was photographed, I was extremely angry, and I had almost no rationality left. At that time, something in my mind was trying hard to break out, but it couldn't. That must have been my mental energy, right?"
So you're saying I almost Awakening Conqueror's Haki before? But ultimately I didn't Awakening. Was it because my emotional state wasn't intense enough? Does Gion have to die for my Conqueror's Haki to Awakening? If so, I'd rather not have Conqueror's Haki!
Looking at Gion, who appeared intact on the surface but was utterly Gion inside, Vic thought to himself that he couldn't bring himself to trade Conqueror's Haki for Gion's life.
There will be many more opportunities to Awakening Conqueror's Haki, but Gion only has one life, so there's no need to make this comparison. This time, Conqueror's Haki almost Awakening, so it probably won't be so difficult to break through next time.
" Gion! The enemy has been defeated, everyone is alright, and I'm alright too. Now we're just waiting for you to recover!..."
Vic sat on the floor outside the bathtub, gently stroking Gion's cheek and speaking softly. As if hearing Vic's voice, Gion's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
Vic chuckled, releasing his hand from her cheek, and retrieved a large piece of metal from his Dimensional Space.
Electric arcs crackled between Vic's hands, and the metal in his hands slowly deformed, eventually becoming a large metal barrel over a meter tall and a meter in diameter.
Then, Vic conjured several pieces of Sea Kings meat and bones out of thin air. Vic put the meat, bones, and some spices into a metal bucket and added a lot of water.
Then, an electric arc was released from the hand to envelop the metal bucket. The thick wall reserved at the edge of the metal bucket slowly thinned, completely sealing and encasing the entire top of the metal bucket.
Vic held the metal bucket horizontally, supporting the bottom with one hand. No, it can't be called a metal bucket anymore; it should be called a sealed large iron can.
Vic continued to heat the iron can with his ability, causing the food inside to simmer. Vic would later use his newly developed ability to treat Gion, which required the large number of damaged and dead internal organ cells in her body to regenerate.
This was originally a long process, but Vic planned to use his abilities to make the cells in her body divide wildly in a short period of time, thereby repairing the injuries in her body in a short period of time.
However, cell division has a prerequisite: energy. Rapid cell division requires a lot of energy, so Vic prepared a large pot of soup made from the meat and bones of Sea Kings.
To shorten the time it takes to stew the meat until it's tender and even completely absorbed into the broth, Vic used the principle of a pressure cooker, but he went even further than a pressure cooker by not leaving a vent. If not controlled properly, it could explode. Fortunately, Vic is Devil Fruit User the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, which gives him a clear understanding of the internal structure of metal, allowing him to do this.
Soon, a continuous bubbling sound came from inside the iron can. The originally cylindrical iron can slowly bulged up and gradually became a sphere. This was because the large amount of steam inside created extremely high pressure, which deformed the metal.
Another ten minutes or so passed, and a commotion arose outside the bathroom. Vic ignored it. After a while, the noise subsided, presumably because Ain had relayed Vic's words to the people who had come.
Vic sensed that there was no more meat inside the sphere, only bones and broth remained. Vic increased the release of his power, opening a hole in the top of the sphere. Instantly, a large amount of steam rushed out of the sphere, emitting a whistling sound like a steam whistle. The entire bathroom was enveloped in a rich aroma and steam, and even the gatekeeper Ain, couldn't help but swallow.
Vic continued to use his abilities, transforming the metal ball back into a normal metal bucket. He then took out a thick piece of wood and placed it on the floor before placing the soup bucket on the wooden plank.
Vic extended his left hand, very gently, and placed his palm on Gion's forehead. With his right hand, he produced a wooden spoon, scooped a spoonful of thick soup from the bucket, blew on it a few times, and then put it into his mouth.
A smile appeared on Vic's lips. The soup tasted very good. He scooped up another spoonful and blew on it. This time, he didn't drink it himself, but brought it to Gion's lips.
Although Vic pried open Gion's lips with a wooden spoon, she still couldn't drink the soup; it all flowed down her lips and dripped into the bathtub water. The unconscious Gion was unable to eat.
Vic frowned. Without proper nutrition, Gion wouldn't recover quickly. After pondering for a moment, Vic scooped up another spoonful, blew on it, and put it in his own mouth. Then he lowered his head and brought it close to Gion's mouth, prying open Gion's teeth with his tongue before finally feeding her the Gion broth.
Gion was placed face up in the bathtub by Vic, and the bone broth flowed into her stomach automatically under the influence of gravity and Vic's guidance.
Vic kept his left hand on Gion's forehead, as he needed to use his abilities to maintain his position inside Gion's body. On the other hand, he repeated the process of scooping soup, blowing on it to cool it down, putting it in his mouth, prying open her teeth, and pouring the soup down her throat.
On the surface, Vic is repeatedly taking advantage of a young, unmarried, beautiful, long-legged woman. In reality, Vic's abilities have penetrated to the cellular level within Gion's body.
A large number of analog electrical signals were repeatedly transmitted to Gion's brain, causing her brain to repeatedly issue instructions for cell division. Now that nutrients were also available, starting from Gion's stomach, damaged and dead cells were replaced by a large number of new cells.
Then there are the other internal organs, blood vessels, and the like. Vic must first treat these more fatal injuries before repairing the others.
