A few days later.
The Revolutionary Army and the Navy Headquarters dispatched a number of soldiers wearing protective clothing to set up a protective net at the gap in the collapsed Red Earth Continent, in order to prevent pirates passing by from rashly entering the New World, thus adding to the troubles of Vivian and others.
At the same moment, it is still on Korsa Island.
Fitzgeral hung up the call from Gordon, then took out his notebook and walked quickly into the medical room.
"Theodore, how are you? Are you feeling better today?" Fitzgerald asked with a smile as he lifted the curtain.
The man lying on the hospital bed was a young man who had just turned sixteen this year. His name was Giles Nathiodo and he was a pioneer fighter of the revolutionary army.
Like most children who joined the Revolutionary Army, his parents and relatives were killed by pirates when they were very young. When he was abducted by human traffickers and was about to be taken to an auction market, he was rescued by the Revolutionary Army. After that, he naturally became a member of the Revolutionary Army.
But unlike other children, Theodore is very talented. In order to avenge his family as soon as possible after he grows up, Theodore has been following many revolutionary army cadres since he was a child, training his body and fighting skills day and night. As a result, at the age of sixteen this year, his strength is already comparable to that of pirates with a bounty of 200 to 300 million in the New World.
It was also because of this that Theodore was always exceptionally brave during the Marijoa War. Whenever he encountered the enemy, he would rush to the front and use his flesh and blood to block his brothers.
He is the youngest in the Northern Army except for the intelligence personnel, but he is also the bravest one.
Just like Vivian, the thunder swordsman in the navy, he marches forward bravely and is ready to die.
At least that's what he thought.
So, after the end of the Marijoa War, Theodore, who was on the front line, fell down unsurprisingly.
The radiation his body was exposed to was even stronger than that of Sabo and Dragon.
Even so, when he was evacuated from the Marijoa Sea, he dragged his broken body and tried his best to rescue other comrades in the army.
"Ahem... is that reporter Fitzgerald?"
Hearing the familiar voice coming from the bedside, Theodore, whose eyes had already become blurry under the strong light, smiled and stretched out his hand, holding Fitzgeral's hand, and said happily: "You come to see me again today?"
Because he had been an orphan since childhood, it was obviously something that made him very happy that someone came to visit him when he was seriously ill.
"Um."
Even though the other party couldn't see him, Fitzgerald still nodded with a smile. But when his eyes met Theodore's arm, which was becoming increasingly charred and rotten, he couldn't help but sigh, and his expression began to become sad.
"It's okay, Reporter Fitzgerald, I'm fine."
As if sensing Fitzgeral's strangeness, Theodore smiled and began to comfort him.
He is such a gentle, kind and considerate boy. Why must such a wonderful boy have to suffer such misfortune
Why could a wicked man like Yin Mu, who would not regret dying ten thousand times, live for more than eight hundred years
Fitzgerald couldn't understand it.
They found a chair and sat at the head of the bed. They chatted for a while. Fitzgeral was about to read today's newspaper to Theodore, but the next second, Fubin walked in pushing a cart.
"Get out of the way. It's time to change the dressing for Theodore."
As he said that, he walked straight to the bed and carefully lifted the quilt covering Theodore.
It would have been better if he hadn't opened it. The moment he opened it, when Fitzgerald saw Theodore's physical condition, he immediately felt a strong sense of nausea.
Fitzgeral subconsciously covered his mouth. After a while, he finally came to his senses and felt regretful and sad.
At this moment, Theodore's skin had already become festering, and the epidermis protecting his flesh and blood gradually disappeared under the treatment in the past few days. When Fubin removed the medical bandage on his body, some rotten flesh would be torn off instantly along with the bandage.
At the side, looking at the blood and flesh stained on the bandage, Fitzgerald, who wanted to record this scene with his camera, couldn't help but rushed to the door and started vomiting.
But after vomiting for a while, he forced himself to calm down, picked up the camera, walked back to the bed, and pressed the shutter towards Theodore's body.
He wanted to record this scene, not for anything else, just to let the world know the evil deeds of the Celestial Dragons, and let people know what kind of cruel and vicious beasts the so-called descendants of the Creator are.
"Hiss...Ha...hiss!"
The sound of Theodore gasping for air soon filled the ward.
Although he couldn't feel it, Fitzgerald could understand what kind of pain the other person was going through. He couldn't help but step forward and hold Theodore's hand, hoping to give him more strength.
However, Fu Binen shook his head at this time and said, "There is already water in his lungs, and his blood oxygen is very low. I estimate that he has to use all his strength to breathe in and out every time. It has only been half a month, and he has become like this... I estimate that in two days, if he is not given a respirator, he will not be able to breathe on his own at all."
"how so.."
Fitzgeral's voice began to choke when he heard this.
"Is there no way to cure it?"
Seeing Fubinn continuing to apply medicine to Theodore's festering body with a serious expression, Fitzgerald couldn't help but ask.
"We have been discussing and researching with the Navy's medical team and Marco from the Whitebeard Pirates for a week, but the final conclusion we came to is... apart from prolonging their lives, there is no way to cure them at all."
Fu Binen pursed his lips as he spoke, and the bitterness on his lips was slightly relieved.
"I have to say that the nuclear explosion fruit eaten by the celestial dragon is indeed the most sinister and vicious ability I have ever seen in my life. Other abilities such as magma and flash can kill the enemy in one blow, but this kind of nuclear radiation will consume the patient's body bit by bit. It is really worse than death."
Perhaps, only death can relieve them of this horrific pain
Looking at the tears in Theodore's eyes, Fubin and Fitzgerald both thought of the same thing at this moment.
