“What does election mean?”

Once I entered the house, I felt a lot warmer.

Dalton made a pot of hot tea for everyone and heard Usopp ask this.

"As I said earlier, a group of pirates called Blackbeard landed on the island a few months ago. When the king at the time learned about this, he immediately abandoned the country and fled to the sea. Therefore, there is no king on this island now."

He explained in a low voice.

"The so-called election is to elect a new king."

The Straw Hat Pirates frowned when they heard this.

Weiwei was even more stunned, and gritted her teeth angrily and said, "Is this considered the leader of a country? He actually abandoned his own people and ran away!"

In her opinion, it was simply unreasonable. A king who could not protect his people was not worthy of being called a king.

Luffy could understand how the girl felt.

This little girl had the guts to go undercover at the Baroque Agency at the age of 14. She lived up to her identity as a princess and the words she said at this moment.

"The king's name is Walpo, and this country was once called the Kingdom of the Drum..."

Perhaps influenced by Weiwei's speech, Dalton unconsciously said a few more words: "It was once the world's leading medical power, but this man drove away all the doctors in the country for the sake of his own rule, leaving only 20 people to serve him. And if the people want to get medical treatment, they must ask him ""!"

This is too much, how can such a person be king?!

Weiwei clenched her fists in anger.

"Wait a minute, doesn't that mean there are no doctors here now!?" Usopp discovered the blind spot.

"No, there is only one more, Dr. Kuleha."

Dalton pointed out the window and whispered, "You can see three mountains, right? The one in the middle is the king's palace. That's where the old witch lives now."

Sanji squinted his eyes and looked for a moment. Through the thick snow and wind, he could barely see the shadow of the castle.

"How can we get up to such a high place? Even if we use the Moon Step, we will be exhausted halfway..."

There should be some kind of cable car or other mountain climbing facilities, right? After all, it is the king's palace, so there must be a convenient way to get up the mountain.

"I'll go."

Luffy smiled and said, "Kaya, I'll take you upstairs. As for you guys...just stay here for now."

"Oh, Luffy, leave it to you." Zoro sat aside, holding a cup of hot tea, and nodded leisurely.

Dalton immediately said: "If you want to go up the mountain, it's best to go from the back of the mountain. If you go up from the front of the village, you will meet Labang..."

Before he could finish, Kaya had already followed Luffy out of the house.

"What is Labang?" Nami asked curiously.

"A vicious rabbit."

"Rabbit, that's okay."

"No... it's violent..."

Dalton opened his mouth, but saw that this group of people were not nervous at all and were quite trusting of Luffy.

Not to mention the idle chatter in the house.

Kaya followed Luffy and walked towards the central mountain in the wind and snow.

After leaving Big Horn Village, the snow on the ground became thicker and thicker, and it was even above the knees when you stepped on it.

The frail Keya had only walked a hundred meters when she began to gasp for breath with a red face.

Luffy had to turn around and said speechlessly:

"Let me carry you on my back until you can walk on your own. It will be dark when we get there."

Kaya's face flushed slightly. Seeing that Luffy was ready to carry her, she didn't act too pretentiously. She gently lay on Luffy's back and put her arms around his neck.

"So light..." Luffy said in surprise. It was much lighter than Nami.

"Sorry……"

"Why apologize?"

Luffy carried Kaya on his back and walked slowly.

"I'm sorry to trouble you again, Mr. Luffy."

"That's right, how are you going to thank me?"

Ke Ya's heart was pounding and she dared not say anything.

As we walked along, rabbits with red eyes and upright legs suddenly appeared in the snow and wind ahead.

The rabbit was very large and had a very ferocious expression.

"Mr. Luffy!" Kaya hugged him tighter nervously.

Luffy did not stop and continued to walk forward step by step. At the same time, a domineering aura instantly shocked the area within a thousand meters.

In an instant, all the creatures nearby fainted.

"Wow, so impressive~" Kaya blinked, "Is this the domineering aura of the Conqueror's Haki?"

All the way from the East China Sea to the Grand Line, she didn't know much about Luffy's strength, she only knew that he was very strong and powerful.

This time, after witnessing the Conqueror's Haki with her own eyes, she truly understood that Mr. Luffy was more powerful than she had imagined.

"Now that you've recovered, what do you want to do in the future?" Luffy said with a smile. In order to prevent the girl from getting bored, he simply chatted with her for a while.

"What are your plans for the future?" Ke Ya tilted her head and thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I want to be a doctor."

"Only those who have tasted the bitterness of pain know how to be gentle to others. Miss Keya, you are a gentle girl."

Kaya opened her beautiful eyes wide in surprise. Mr. Luffy would occasionally say something that particularly hit her heart.

There is a feeling of being understood.

She covered her mouth and chuckled: "Mr. Luffy, when we were in Xiluobu Village, why did you want to bring me to the Grand Line for medical treatment? I can't do anything on the ship. To you, I am really just a burden."

As she spoke, she put her head on Luffy's shoulder and murmured softly, as soft as a mosquito:

"Mr. Luffy, you are truly gentle."

Hearing this, Luffy laughed silently.

See, if he traveled through time and space and became Usopp, Kaya would already be a mother now.

When the two arrived at the foot of the mountain, the blizzard had intensified and they could hardly see the scenery ten meters away.

Feeling the shivering on her back, the cold penetrated her cotton-padded jacket, and the biting cold made Keya's face turn red.

She raised her head slightly and looked at the mountain ahead.

The almost straight mountain wall, at a ninety-degree angle to the ground, extends upward until it disappears in the blizzard.

It’s so high… If I were alone, I would have no idea how to get up there.

"Hold tight."

Luffy thought about it and instantly entered the Nika form.

The hair burned like white flames.

Lying on Luffy's back, Kaya felt the chill disappear and she couldn't help but hug him tighter, wanting more warmth.

“So warm~”

So small...

Unlike her reaction, Luffy just wanted to complain that he was not as big as Nami.

"gone!"

With a reminder, the snow under Luffy's feet turned into rubber. After bending his knees slightly, he jumped up.

Whoosh!

Rushing up like lightning!

"Ah~~~~"

It was too stimulating and Kaya let out a cry of surprise.

As the bouncing force gradually weakened, a white flame cloud appeared under Luffy's feet. After gaining momentum again, he rushed to the top of the mountain in one breath.

"Haha...haha..."

Ke Ya was so scared that she closed her eyes and gasped softly. Only after she stood firm did she dare to slowly open her eyes.

"arrive."

“What a beautiful castle!”

Ke Ya said in a surprised tone.

What caught my eye was a huge castle covered with snow, and the castle was just as exquisite as I had imagined.

Luffy walked up to the city gate and banged on it.

After waiting for a long time, the door finally opened a crack.

Then, an horn and half a deer head popped out from the crack in the door.

"Reindeer?" Keya blinked.

A reindeer with a blue nose and a round red hat on his head.

As if frightened, the reindeer broke out in cold sweat on his face.

The next moment, he nudged the door with his nose and slammed it shut.

"That scared him." Luffy laughed.

"Is that so?" Ke Ya quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, please open the door."

"It might be a raccoon cat. I heard that raccoon cats are often socially anxious."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened again.

"I'm a reindeer! I'm not a raccoon cat! I look like a reindeer no matter how you look at it!"
