Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 111 Prohibition of Unjustified Beating of Patients

"Mr. Green Pepper, this is putting me in a difficult position."

"this."

Blue blue blue~

The buzzing of the Den Den Mushi interrupted Green Pepper's attempt to explain.

"Wait a minute, it's something personal. What's wrong, Riley?"

"Dad, Sister Fran is acting strangely. I can't wake her up. Could you come over and take a look?"

Oran currently has several Den Den Mushi (snail phone devices), and he provides different numbers depending on the contact person. For example, only Lyliana knows the number of this particular Den Den Mushi.

Oran is currently researching caller ID plugins, planning to equip Den Den Mushi with one so that he can know who is on the other end before answering, thus eliminating the need to rely entirely on the Den Den Mushi's appearance.

"Mr. Green Pepper, I need to take care of some personal matters first. Please explain your situation to my assistant, and then he will take you to the treatment room."

"Okay, I'm not in a hurry, Dr. Sidier."

It would be a lie to say he wasn't in a hurry, but this time Oran's answer was that he could cure it, and he seemed very confident. So, of course he could wait.

"The patient, Qingjiao, suffered an unexplained head injury due to an external impact."

Basic medical expense calculation

The head surgery is expected to incur additional charges for outsiders, including the surgeon's fee, totaling 50 million Berries. Please pay in advance.

An android that spoke without any emotion walked over. This was Oran's machine assistant, who was not very agile and simply followed the pre-programmed instructions.

It considers head treatment for green peppers and craniotomy to be the same type of problem.

If it's just surgery, the cost wouldn't be so high. According to Piltover's new regulations, citizens can also enjoy certain medical fee reductions.

For patients like Green Pepper who come from outside the area seeking medical help, there are extra charges. Even more expensive are the fees charged by Oran, as Oran himself charges a considerable amount for both guidance and instruction at the Navy Headquarters.

From this perspective, Mitt, as the first person to experience prosthetic surgery on the high seas, actually hit the jackpot.

"Fifty million is no problem, one hundred million is fine, even one billion is acceptable! But I need an IOU."

Green Pepper was also a little embarrassed. He was a person who cared about his image and knew that his behavior was somewhat irrational, but he had no choice.

Green Pepper isn't short of money; a billion pegories isn't a lot of money for him. The wealth buried beneath the glacier is enough to rival that of a nation.

The problem with green peppers now is that they have the money but can't get it.

Although the Happo Navy has a close relationship with the Flower Country, and can even attend the World Conference as guards alongside the Flower Country's royalty, the Happo Navy does not blindly obey the Flower Country's orders.

Their relationship is more like a friendly symbiotic one; such private voyages aimed at self-healing are not covered by the Flower Kingdom's reimbursement program.

"No, according to Piltover's new regulations, outsiders must pay for medical expenses first."

"To be honest, my treasure is kept in a special place. I won't be able to get my hands on it until this head is healed."

Please pay first.

"I can only collect the money after my injuries are healed."

"You can only receive treatment after payment."

"."

Before they knew it, the topic seemed to have returned to its original point, and Green Pepper also discovered a problem: the assistant Oran mentioned was stubborn and inflexible.

Nowadays, oaths of honor still carry some credibility at sea, especially among powerful figures. Swearing an oath to a pirate flag or the flag of their own faction is a significant commitment.

After all, there is no Luo River on the sea, and no one speaks nonsense about the Luo River, ruining their reputation or even affecting future generations.

But this doesn't work for androids; the word "swear" doesn't exist in their programming.

In the end, Green Pepper used the Eight Treasures Navy's ships as collateral to resolve the issue of the androids.

At this point, he even reasonably suspected that this was Oran's way of putting him in a difficult position after hearing that he didn't want to pay first.

In fact, Green Pepper was only half right. Oran didn't mean to intimidate them, but instead used Green Pepper, an outsider, to conduct android tests.

Since Piltover was established, Green Pepper was one of the first official member states to arrive here. Oran was testing how this level of intelligence-enhancing android would behave when receiving foreign guests.

Currently, there seem to be no problems with the logical program.

As Green Pepper headed to the treatment area, Oran also located Frankenstein and understood why Lyliana had said that Frankenstein was acting strangely.

Frankenstein was sitting beneath a giant windmill, with her warhammer standing beside her.

The hydroelectric power station is still in the investigation stage, but the windmills needed for wind power generation have been built on the plains of Firefly Island.

In terms of construction time, these windmills are second only to the permanent fortifications built along the coast.

Frankenstein closed her eyes, letting the monsoon winds from the ocean caress her hair, holding a flower in her hand, and a butterfly landed on the tip of her head.

It has a feeling of a game coming to an end, with the NPCs returning to their homeland after fulfilling their long-cherished wish.

"Dad, what's wrong with Sister Fran?"

"It's nothing serious, she just turned herself off, or more accurately, put her into hibernation mode."

After checking on Frankenstein, Oran confirmed her condition; the wires extending from her body and connecting to the windmill showed that she was storing energy again.

The warhammer absorbs wind energy on the side and absorbs the electrical energy generated by the windmill, while simultaneously putting the machine into a minimum consumption mode, making it a true master of energy conservation.

"But I can't wake up Sister Fran."

"She has turned on do-not-disturb mode, so normal sounds can't bother her."

Oran picked up a small pebble and pressed it on Frankenstein's arm, triggering an alarm mechanism within her body that woke her from her dormant state. He then led her toward the hospital.

"Dr. Sidier, I suggest you change your assistant. Your current assistant is a bit too straightforward."

"Really? After all, he's a newcomer and not yet familiar with many things. He should get better with time."

There's no need to mortgage the ship; payment later is also possible, but the fees for upfront and later payments are different.

This almost made Green Pepper's blood pressure rise. Heaven knows how many times he repeated the same thing to that android. If Oran did it again, Green Pepper might actually be able to put on a show of exploding on the spot.

Fortunately, Oran, the person in question, chose to believe in his credibility, which is a good thing.

In fact, this is part of a political investment. Although Green Pepper is not royalty, he still has influence among the royal family of the Flower Kingdom.

Establishing contact with the Flower Country through the green pepper connection will be much easier.

The World Government doesn't interfere in matters between member states and non-member states. Given Piltover's current situation, establishing contact can only be done through some special methods.

"Okay, let me make it clear again: you'll be satisfied as long as your head returns to its original shape, right?"

"That's right, I'll do any treatment as long as I can get my cone back, but can you answer one question for me first?"

"The treatment plan? That's a secret for now; I think it's better if you don't know."

The way they brought his head back wasn't the conventional method. Oran was still calculating the angle and amount of force to apply. Theoretically, Green Pepper would be hit many times.

So Oran didn't directly explain how to treat it; it's just that Green Pepper's focus was on a brand.

"What I want to know now is what 'prohibiting the beating of patients without cause' means."

This place was originally a seaside resort castle for the old royal family, which was later turned into a lavish banquet hall by pirates, and now it has been converted into a hospital by Oran.

In the most conspicuous center of the hall, a notice board with an jarring design was hung there.

"Oh, that? Don't worry about it. This is a non-member country, and we usually have a lot of troubles."

Some people who need treatment while passing by don't follow the rules and make things difficult for the doctors. Sometimes it even escalates to physical altercations, causing some doctors to have stress reactions. This is a reminder to them.

Violence is bad, but it is the fastest way to establish rules. Without the guarantee of force, even the best rules will be difficult to implement.

The eerie sign made Qingjiao suspicious, but she still went into the treatment room. However, Qingjiao didn't quite understand why this special treatment room was in a small warehouse outside the hospital, and the walls were even reinforced with steel plates.

"So, Mr. Green Pepper, are you ready to take a nap? After you wake up, all of this will be over."

"No, I need to stay awake; I don't need any anesthesia or anything like that."

Green Pepper refused this part. Although he came here for treatment, he was still a little wary. What would happen after he fell asleep was beyond his control.

"That will hurt a lot."

"It's okay, I can bear it. It's just a little pain. Compared to the mental torment that bastard Garp inflicted on me, it's nothing."

At Green Pepper's insistence, Oran went along with it. After Green Pepper lay down, Oran covered him up so that he couldn't see the treatment process and also prepared an earplug to block his hearing.

Then, the calculation formula was started based on the X-ray images taken.

"Ripley, from roughly this angle, give me a punch."

"Dad, are you serious?"

"That's right, this uncle needs your help, this is the best way."

"Alright, I'll get started then."

Leriana raised her right hand, swung it around in the air a few times, and then aimed at the target Oran had drawn and fired.

boom!

With a muffled thud, Green Pepper, along with the window, was smashed to the ground.

"What are you doing? I'm sorry, I was too loud and disturbed you. Please continue."

Green Pepper was a seasoned veteran, and he could still feel the impact of being hit. However, when he stood up, he saw his sunken head reappear in the mirror.

Although the complete cone head was not presented, it is still a good trend.

Overjoyed, Green Pepper dragged over the spare operating table herself and lay back down.

In his excessive excitement, he didn't realize that it wasn't his cone, but a bump that had appeared after he was hit.

Leliana's punch fell slightly short, failing to achieve the goal of healing.

"Dad, is this not right?"

"Yeah, it was a little short, but it's okay, failure is normal."

"Fran, it's your turn this time. Don't use electricity, just use brute force."

Orlando brought in several helpers to deal with the uncertainties, and after Leriana's failure, the baton naturally passed to Frankenstein.

"Um."

With his legs slightly apart, Frankenstein found a better position to exert force, raising the warhammer high above his head.

Leriana's current punches are still at the small hammer stage. Since the attempt to break through the cracks has failed, it's time to switch to the big hammer and demolish it.

boom!

With a single hammer blow, a similar situation occurred again, and Green Pepper's head changed shape once more. A slightly curved cone was smashed out by Frankenstein, turning Green Pepper into the shape of the Crooked Horned Dragon King.

This time, the green pepper even smashed a big hole in the ground. If the angle had been a little more off, the green pepper might have created a crack in the ground.

"Very good, you got it right this time, but it's still a bit off. Xiong, you'll take over next time. You should have a better grasp of the power now."

The demolition team completed its work, and the baton was passed to Xiong, the cleanup team.

"Brother Oran, what should we do?"

Xiong Ben thought Oran had asked him to expel the pain from the patient's body, which was what Xiong usually did. However, this treatment plan was somewhat difficult for Xiong to understand.

He can express pain through his actions, but he hasn't learned how to straighten a crooked head.

"Haven't Riley and Fran already demonstrated it? Go ahead and hit them."

Oran recalculated the angle and made a new mark on the bell pepper with a marker.

"Let's begin from this angle. This is for treating his illness, so please don't hold back."

"Okay, I understand."

The bear took a deep breath, then raised its arm high above its head and swung it with all its might.

This time, the green pepper didn't fall to the ground. Instead, a large hole appeared in the wall next to it. The green pepper, which had just been lying on the ground, had flown out and now landed headfirst in the garden next to the hospital.

"Green Pepper Leader!"

"Dongliang!! You bastards, what are you guys doing?!"

The members of the Babao Navy waiting outside already sensed something was amiss with the commotion inside. Now, seeing Green Pepper fly out of there, they all became indignant, as if they were ready to fight Oran to the death.

"You little brat, who are you calling a bastard?!"

At this moment, Green Pepper crawled out of the dust behind him, grabbed the henchman who had shouted the loudest, and made him bow towards Oran.

"I'm very sorry, my subordinates were too impatient. Please don't take it to heart."

"Chief, your cone is back!"

The underlings nearby all noticed the changes in Green Pepper, and even took out a mirror and showed it to him.

Seeing her reflection in the mirror, Green Pepper couldn't contain her smile.

"Yes! You're finally back, Dr. Siddirel. Just as the rumors say, your medical skills are truly superb!"
