When Ian came down the mountain and returned to the village, Kureha and Chopper were still waiting here.
"Where's Walpo? Did you kill him?" Kureha asked Ian as soon as they met.
The bald village chief and a group of villagers also looked at Ian eagerly, expecting to hear good news from him.
People in this country have already had enough of Walpo, the stupid and cruel king, but unfortunately, they can't resist Walpo, so that they can only hope that there will be a hero who can save them from Walpo. Rescued from under the rule of the Communist Party of China, Ian looked at the eyes of these people, and for some reason, suddenly thought of a word: Bao Qingtian!
Well, it’s a bit inconsistent, but that’s roughly what it means. It seems that no matter which world it’s in, it’s the same. It’s because ordinary people are powerless to resist and cannot get justice, so they all hope that someone can give them justice.
So facing the gazes of these people, Ian could only nod his head and said, "Don't worry, Walpo will never appear again, you can rebuild a peaceful country."
"Great!" The people in the village suddenly burst into cheers, and some people were even moved to tears.
This village is considered good. It is said that in other villages, many people died because of Valpo's damned hunting doctor decree. , people's first reaction is to breathe a sigh of relief.
Ian looked at these cheering and celebrating people, and didn't bother them. He turned to Kureha and said, "Valbona bastard, he ate all the books in his castle, not only did he not let this guy grow any longer. My brain, on the contrary, makes me unable to find any medical books, Dr. Kureha, it seems that I can only seek your help!"
"Really!" Kureha said with a smile on her hips, "Are you trying to ask me the secret to staying young?"
"No! I want to ask you for some medical notes!" Ian said, "The doctor in my pirate group asked me to bring some medical-related things back."
Kureha smiled and said, "That's no problem! Come with me, Chopper!"
"Yes!" Chopper responded happily, and turned into a reindeer form. Kureha took Ian into the sled, and Chopper rushed towards Kureha's residence, while the bald village chief With the names of the villagers, they all saw Ian off.
After flying all the way to Kuleha's residence, Kuleha began to search for books that Ian could take away, and Ian sat on a chair and waited.
Chopper hid behind the door, showing most of his body, peeking at Ian, wanting to come up and talk to Ian, but he was shy and embarrassed.
Seeing this, Ian waved at him and said, "Chopper, what are you doing?"
Chopper had no choice but to walk out shyly, came to Ian, raised his head and asked Ian, "I... can I know your name?"
Ian smiled and said, "Didn't Dr. Kureha tell you?"
Chopper shook his head and said, "Madam Doriel didn't say anything!"
Ian stretched out his hand and said to Chopper: "I am Ian, and I am currently a pirate, please take care of me!"
Chopper also stretched out his hoof happily, and said, "I'm Tony Tony Chopper! Now I'm studying medicine with Doriel."
Ian held Chopper's hoof and shook it twice as if shaking hands. He felt that Chopper's hoof was fluffy and comfortable to the touch.
"You are a pirate from outside, what is the outside world like?" After shaking hands, Chopper asked Ian curiously, staring at his cute big eyes.
"If you want to know, why don't you go out and see for yourself?" Ian said with a smile.
"Oh!? Can I go out too?" Chopper was a little surprised.
"Of course, isn't it enough to be a pirate?" Ian said: "One day, you will meet a companion who is compatible with you, and then go to sea together and see the outside world!"
At this moment, Kureha walked in with a stack of books in his arms, and said to Ian, "Boy, I thought you were planning to abduct this little bastard from me!"
Ian smiled slightly and shook his head, he hadn't thought about it that way.
In fact, up to now, Ian has also met several Luffy's companions. At the beginning, he wanted to take Nami as his navigator, but it was not until later that he discovered that such a thing as a companion , There is indeed a problem of compatibility. Luffy’s partner is not necessarily a suitable partner for Ian. This is the case for Nami and Sanji. Ian’s character is not the one that can impress them and let them go with him, so now Even when he met Chopper, Ian never considered this kind of problem.
The Dragon Hunter Pirates do not lack doctors, and Ian himself has the healing ability of cards, so Chopper's medical skills are superfluous for him.
Looking at it from another perspective, why is Luffy's partner not Sauron's partner? As a senior brother, Ian still cares about Sauron, a junior, knowing that he may suffer a lot of injuries in the future. With Chopper , Sauron's safety is also guaranteed.
It's just that Ian doesn't know now, because he made such a fuss on Magnetic Drum Island, will Chopper still go with Luffy in the future
Ian can't control these things, so he doesn't plan to think too much. He has already understood the matter of Magnetic Drum Island, so he plans to go on the road. He has to go to the Kingdom of Alabasta, and now Ian also has a faint premonition of uneasiness. Well, in the divination that Hawkins gave him, the so-called danger has not yet been fulfilled, so Ian wants to finish his work early and go back.
Kureha put the medical books he found in a small box and handed it to Ian. Ian took it and found it was quite heavy, so he said to Kureha, "Thank you!"
"You're welcome!" Kuleha said: "But boy, I still like it when you call me a beauty!"
"Haha!" Ian's bad taste came up a little bit, so he said: "Okay, beauty, do you want me to introduce you to a boyfriend? There is a nice mature man in my pirate team!"
What Ian said was naturally Uncle Fujitora. At Fujitora's age, he must be worthy of the word "mature"!
"Get out!" Kuleha took a sip from the wine bottle on the table, and said, "The men who pursue me can line up from here to the foot of the mountain. I wonder if you introduce me to a boyfriend?"
Ian laughed, put the bear ear hat on his head, picked up the box, and said: "Goodbye!" Then he walked out of Kureha's residence.
Accompanied by the crisp bell on Ian's wrist, his figure gradually disappeared into the snowflakes in the sky. Kureha and Chopper stood at the door, and after listening to the sound of the bell fade away, Chopper suddenly spoke, enviously saying: : "Ms. Doriel, Doctor Silke is right. Pirates are really the most romantic people in the world!"
As a result, Kureha stretched out his hand and punched Chopper on the head, saying: "Stupid! Do you know what romance is? Why don't you go back and study medicine well? If you don't see people taking you away, they must dislike you." Not good at learning!"
Chopper smiled, stretched out his hand to fix the hat on his head, but he was not depressed, he said with longing: "Dr. Yi'an is right, one day, I will find a companion and go to sea together as a pirate! "
In such a short period of acquaintance, Ian left a deep impression on Chopper's mind. Chopper remembered the cherry blossoms blooming on the top of the mountain and the crisp bell when he left, so he unexpectedly He also changed his name to Ian as a doctor!
Because in Chopper's philosophy, doctors are the most amazing people, Dr. Silke is like this, and so is Doctor Doriel. In this day's acquaintance, Ian has also become another person who made Chopper the most. yearning person...
When Ian returned to the port, he found that his boat was already filled with large bags of food. Don't think about it, it must have been placed by the people in the village to thank him, which made Ian's I feel very happy.
So, he raised his sails again and set sail, heading towards Alabasta in the direction indicated by the permanent pointer.
However, what Ian didn't know was that when he killed Walpo and turned the apple in his pocket into a devil fruit, far away in the new world, another crucial devil fruit, also appeared!
This is the food warehouse at the bottom of a pirate ship, and in this warehouse, piles of wooden boxes are piled up.
Generally speaking, the warehouses at the bottom of the ship are usually divided into two types, one is the ammunition depot for storing ammunition, and the other is the food depot for storing drinks and food. The vitamins needed by the body generally come from wine and food, but food, especially fresh fruit, is the least easy to preserve.
Under normal circumstances, the shelf life of fresh fruit is about one week. If it is longer, it can only be stored in the refrigerator. According to this logic, it is best to choose canned food for long-term voyages.
However, when many ships are resupplying, they usually bring a few boxes of fresh fruit, because people will always get tired of eating canned food, so every time the resupply is finished, the people on the ship will eat it first. Fresh fruit, then canned.
In this warehouse, the boxes stacked are the boxes that store fresh fruits.
At this moment, there was a violent shaking from the ship. The stacked boxes were shaken and two boxes fell down. Because the base was relatively high, the top box was smashed when it fell. .
The moment the contents of the box fell out, there was a burst of fruity aroma. This is a box of pineapples. Due to being stored together, these pineapples have changed from green at the beginning to golden today, exuding Tempting taste.
However, in this golden color, there is a weird purple fruit mixed in strangely!
This purple fruit has square grids like pineapples on the shell, but there are spiral patterns on these grids.
Such a strange fruit was mixed into a box of pineapples. It would be very strange if someone entered the food warehouse and saw it. However, the people on this pirate ship couldn't care less about people checking the warehouse at this moment!
There was another violent shaking, the entire hull of the pirate ship was shaking, and on the deck of the ship, there were bursts of screams.
Obviously, this pirate ship is being attacked by the enemy!
On the deck, a large number of pirates have been cut down to the ground, and the smell of blood pervades the entire deck. Most of the pirates who fell on the ground have the same tattoos, which means that they are members of a pirate group and have died. With so many people, it also means that the pirate group has suffered a catastrophe.
And their opponent's ships were all around, surrounding them, a total of four ships.
These four ships are all flying a unified flag. On the pirate flag fluttering in the wind, it is a symbol that can make people fear in the new world.
Whitebeard Pirates!
