One Piece: The Cryo Doctor on the Straw Hat Ship

She always felt that there was some great wisdom contained in that sentence.

A moment later, Vivi looked at V with some surprise.

Unexpectedly, V, a pirate, not only possesses amazing abilities and great strength, but also has a political awareness that far surpasses that of a princess of a country.

"What a strange guy," Vivi thought to herself.

"Anyway..." Nami suddenly spoke up, looking at Chopper, "He's not an ordinary child, is he?"

“That’s right.” V nodded in agreement, then patted Luffy on the shoulder: “Luffy, it’s up to you as captain now.”

"OK~!" Luffy swung his arm, instantly filled with energy.

He strode forward, past Kureha, and came directly in front of Chopper.

"W-what are you going to do!?"

Chopper panicked, completely unaware that he was hiding in the wrong direction.

Luffy, on the other hand, was even more direct and straightforward:

"My name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I'm a pirate!"

"V said you're a really strong guy, so... come be my partner and sail the seas with me!!!"

"What? Me? Powerful?"

Chopper was taken aback when he heard this.

The next second, his body suddenly twisted like seaweed:

"Baka! Even if you praise me like that, I won't be happy! Baka yarou!"

"........."

This guy is definitely a freak.

Seeing Chopper's strange posture, the Straw Hat crew instantly smiled knowingly.

After all, who on this ship isn't a weirdo?

So you're saying yes to me?

Upon seeing this, Luffy acted without consulting anyone first, then raised his arms and cheered loudly:

"We have a new partner!!!"

"Let's start the banquet!"

"Wait, wait a minute!"

Chopper suddenly snapped out of his daze and quickly denied it in protest:

"Who said I was going to go to sea with you guys!?"

"Who wants to be your partner?!"

"Who, who wants to be a pirate who is free, adventurous, can travel the world, encounter all sorts of strange people and events, help those in need, and pursue their own dreams!"

"Putting your dreams on a pirate flag...that kind of thing...that kind of thing..."

"I absolutely don't want this!!!"

By the end, Chopper's voice was clearly trembling with tears.

Only he himself knew that, as a reindeer, he could not have a future with humans.

Having already suffered too much in reality, he didn't want to be looked at differently by others anymore.

However, upon hearing this, Luffy waved his hand dismissively:

"I do not care!"

"Anyway, you already promised me!"

"I absolutely must take you out to sea!"

"You bastard! Pay attention in class!"

Peng!

Chopper's body suddenly grew larger, and he punched Luffy directly in the head.

However, the next second, something shocking happened.

Suddenly, Luffy's head was smashed into the snow like a ping-pong ball tied to a racket, while his body remained completely still.

The slender neck, stretched out, trembled slightly in the air.

"scare!"

Startled, Chopper took a step back.

He looked frantically at his hands.

"I... I killed someone!?"

"Doctor! Doctor!..."

"That's right, I am a doctor!"

After a series of absurd actions, Chopper quickly transformed back into his human-beast form and stepped forward to pull Luffy's head out.

But before he could make a move, Luffy braced himself with both hands, and his head snapped back instantly.

"Ouch! It's so cold!"

"........."

Chopper opened his mouth wide, looked at Luffy, and then at the marks on the snow.

"A monster! A monster!!!"

He started shouting again.

This made Luffy burst into laughter: "Hahaha, you really are a strange guy!"

at the same time.

On the other side, V stepped forward and approached Kureha.

Good afternoon, beautiful lady.

Knowing the original plot well, he understood Kureha's preferences and immediately uttered a statement he didn't mean.

He then got straight to the point: "As you can see, our captain is very fond of Chopper, so he wants to invite Chopper to join our pirate crew and sail with us."

"Judging from your eyes, you should have already recognized who we are, so you should know..."

"Chopper's talent and abilities will definitely not be wasted after he joins us."

"I hope you will agree."

"The Straw Hat Pirates..." Kureha took a swig of her drink, her eyes hidden behind sunglasses, making it impossible to know what she was thinking.

After a while, she suddenly chuckled:

"That guy is just an assistant to me. He's been by my side for so many years and hasn't improved at all."

"If you can take him away, then it's up to you!"

"Thank you very much then~" V bowed slightly to Kureha to express her gratitude.

He knew that Kureha had begun to make concessions.

The only remaining question is how to persuade Chopper.

For Chopper, who yearns for the sea and pirates, all it takes is for him to realize that he's not the only freak in the world...

Getting him on board wouldn't be difficult.

Chapter 71 The Devouring Fruit, Here You Go! (Please continue reading~)

Cigu Island, in front of the highest snow-capped mountain.

The Straw Hat crew gazed at the near-vertical cliff face before them, marveling at the wonders of nature.

The snow-covered cliffs, like sharp swords piercing the sky, gleamed with a cold, chilling light in the hazy sunlight.

The wind and snow howled as they swept across the cliff top, swirling up ice crystals everywhere, as if time itself had frozen in place.

"Wow—it's so high!!" Luffy looked up as if he wanted to take in the entire mountain.

He then looked at Chopper beside him:

"It's a promise, Chopper!"

"If we help you defeat Wapol, you'll agree to join us!"

"Ah."

Chopper tightened his grip on the backpack behind him.

He felt ashamed when he thought about how Luffy had been so persistent.

But at the same time... he harbored a hidden expectation.

Chopper rubbed his frozen nose with his hoof and muttered to himself, "What's life like for a pirate?"

"Okay! Let's go then!"

"Go and beat that guy named Wapol to a pulp!"

To welcome his new crewmate, Luffy eagerly stretched out his hands and, ignoring the cold of the stone wall, leaped upwards.

However, at that moment, a mechanical buzzing suddenly rang in Luffy's ears.

Luffy turned his head in the direction of the sound and saw a row of small platforms made up of drones, carrying the Straw Hat crew and a panicked Chopper upwards.

Usopp looked down at Luffy, hands on his hips, and laughed: "What era are we living in? Still climbing in the traditional way?"

"This is the kind of adventure that suits us, the Straw Hat crew!"

"We're leaving, Luffy!"

As they spoke, the drone, under Nami's control, flew rapidly toward the mountaintop.
