After a long time.
Maud spoke first, with a hint of regret in her tone.
"It seems that even the 'sea' can't help Kaido who is keen on committing suicide."
As he spoke, Maude stretched out his right hand, and with a slight movement of thought, the hunter's notes appeared out of thin air in his palm.
Wow—
Notes turn pages automatically.
He didn't stop turning the page until he reached the page where Kaido's name was written.
Mod looked down at Kaido's name written on the page, not hiding any regret.
And what he said made the shock and confusion in Runti's eyes slowly fade away, replaced by the most common ferocity before.
"Bacardi Mod, you must be afraid, right? Afraid that Lord Kaido will kill all of you on that island!!!"
"I don't quite understand what you are saying."
Maude closed the note with one hand and looked calmly at Runti who had returned to her previous style.
Runti's attention was not on the hunter's notebook at all, but stared at Maud and said firmly:
"You are afraid of Lord Kaido's power, so you used 'insidious means' to make Lord Kaido fall into the sea, in order to forcefully interrupt the battle!"
"???"
Maude was shocked by such nonsense and looked at Runti as if she were looking at a lunatic.
This woman has completely become Kaido's little fangirl.
But forget it…
The reason why he came to the cell to see Runti as soon as the terrifying three-masted ship set sail was to kill Runti and thus solve the hidden danger caused by the life card.
"as long as you are happy."
Maud removed the hunter's note and took out Runti's shadow from the shadow box.
First, the shadow was returned to Runti, and then the shadow was cut off again.
After one round of operation, the perfect anesthetic effect was produced, causing Runti to fall directly into a deep coma.
"Luo, come here."
Maud shouted toward the outside of the cell.
Ta-ta-ta...
Suddenly, a burst of footsteps came from far to near.
A moment later, Luo's figure appeared outside the cell.
"Let's start the 'removal surgery'."
Maud looked back at Luo and said calmly.
"good."
Luo nodded, took out the fruit prepared in advance, and started the removal operation with ease.
After a while.
Runti lost her life.
Inside the cell was an ancient devil fruit and a complete corpse.
Maud played with the high bulge on the pedicle of the newly obtained Pachycephalosaurus ancient devil fruit.
"After four nine-star events, the experience gained is really getting lower and lower, even if the target has reached nine-star levels..."
Feeling the benefits that were fed back into her body, Maud silently muttered to herself.
"I originally thought I could squeeze more value out of her, but I can't oversimplify things in the future."
A shadow wave appeared in the palm of Morde's palm, and he put the newly obtained ancient swollen-headed dragon devil fruit into the shadow box.
As a result, the number of Devil Fruits in the Shadow Box increased to 17.
"Luo, move the body to the freezer."
Maud stood up, glanced at Runti's body first, and then turned around and walked out of the cell.
"Um."
Luo responded and watched Maud leave before picking up the body and walking towards the freezer.
Castle, infirmary.
Zoro, with both arms broken and extremely seriously injured, was lying on one of the hospital beds.
After Philo's treatment, Sauron's life was not in danger for the time being.
However, I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up in a short time.
As for Luffy, who received Kaido's Thunderous Gossip more than a year in advance, he also suffered extremely serious injuries.
If it weren't for the defensive power of Gear 4, I'm afraid Luffy would have died on the spot, ending his dream of becoming the Pirate King prematurely.
In contrast, Nami and her group, who were bombarded by Kaido's lightning, woke up one after another after applying Philo's special ointment.
People in this world seem to have high resistance to various elemental attacks.
For example, Enel's thunder, Ace's flame, and Aokiji's ice.
After hitting a target head-on who does not know how to defend themselves with weapons, they often fail to directly take away the target's life.
The same goes for Kaido's Purple Thunder.
With that level of power, it should be able to directly chop people into charcoal.
But Nami and the others were only slightly charred on the surface of their skin, even though they were seriously injured...
"Luffy… "
"Zoron!!!"
The Straw Hat Pirates who woke up one after another rushed to Zoro and Luffy's beds.
They looked at Zoro and Luffy, worried and angry.
"How could this happen... Zoro's arm..."
Chopper was trembling slightly, looking at Zoro with tears in his eyes.
He is a doctor who can cure diseases and detoxify.
But he can't let people regenerate their limbs.
When he thought of Zoro's dream of becoming the world's greatest swordsman, and then looked at Zoro's empty side, tears suddenly burst out of Chopper's eyes.
On the other hand, everyone else had a serious look on their face.
The atmosphere in front of the hospital bed was filled with gloom.
"Don't be so depressed."
Franky raised his arms high and made a signature gesture, and then said seriously: "You know, I can help Sauron install a pair of super excellent mechanical arms!"
After hearing Franky's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then the image of Sauron using a pair of mechanical arms to lift iron appeared in their minds.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became more gloomy.
"Hey, hey, I'm serious!"
Frankie looked at the depressed people.
Chopper looked at Franky with tears in his eyes and sobbed: "But... Zoro doesn't like drinking Coke."
“…”
Frankie was immediately speechless.
"Even if I lose my hands, I still have a mouth..."
At this moment, Zoro slowly opened his eyes. His pale face due to excessive blood loss did not show the expected depression and depression.
"Zoron, you're awake."
Everyone looked at Zoro with worried faces.
Luffy, who was in the hospital bed next to him and confirmed that his life was not in danger, was instead ignored by them.
Zoro struggled to hold himself up.
Sanji, who had always been at odds with Zoro, quickly reached out to support Zoro, helping Zoro straighten his upper body and lean on the back of the bed.
"How's Luffy doing?"
Zoro didn't seem to care at all about the fact that his arms were broken. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Luffy, who was covered in bandages on the bed next to him, and became concerned about Luffy's condition.
Chopper raised his hand to wipe away his tears and said: "Although Luffy was seriously injured, after careful treatment, he is no longer seriously injured. He will only need to rest for a period of time before he can recover."
"Um."
Zoro heard this and nodded.
Nami looked at Sauron and said hesitantly: "Zoron, your hands..."
"It's just a change from three-sword style to one-sword style."
Zoro's face was expressionless and he didn't look like he was joking.
Everyone looked at Zoro's expression and couldn't understand Zoro's mood for a moment, so they couldn't help but fell silent.
Crunch—
The door to the medical room was suddenly pushed open.
Mod walked into the medical room, followed by Sabo, Philo, who hung the crow mask casually behind his head, and Perona, who was floating in the air.
Hearing the noise, everyone in the medical room looked at Maud who was walking over.
Everyone's expressions seemed a little complicated.
"Master..."
Usopp looked at Mod.
Mod nodded slightly towards Usopp, and then looked at the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Feeling the depressing atmosphere in the venue, Maude raised her eyebrows and said, "If Perona hadn't been right next to me, I would have suspected that you might have been attacked by a 'negative ghost', which is why you are so depressed."
"I won't be that boring, young lady."
Perona was slightly startled, puffing her cheeks and looking at Maud beside her.
Bailey, who was lying lazily on Maude's shoulder, looked sideways at Perona and deliberately raised his voice and made a "bang" sound.
Perona suddenly looked at Bailey with a frown.
As he waved his hand, a white shadow passed through Bailey's body very skillfully.
"I'm really sorry for breathing the same air as everyone else..."
Bailey immediately slipped off Maude's shoulders and lay on the ground, with a negative look on his face.
"snort."
Perona crossed her arms and looked away.
Maud glanced at Perona and Bailey helplessly, and then looked at the Straw Hats who were slightly ashamed.
"If you want to know the current situation, just ask Sabo later. Now... let me help Zoro 'treat' his arms first."
"ah!?"
Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates was shocked when they heard this.
Zoro, who was leaning on the hospital bed, narrowed his eyes sharply and stared at Maude.
Apparently, he was not as calm as he seemed about losing his arms.
Looking at the reaction of the Straw Hats, Maud said strangely: "Restoring broken arms and legs is just a trivial matter to me. Why, didn't I tell you?"
“I never said that at all!!!”
