Pirates: The Steady and Responsible Person in the Straw Hats

"Oh, it's so spectacular!"

When the cable car reached the top and stopped, Luffy ignored Usopp's obstruction and ran towards the stairs impatiently.

After reaching the top, I looked at the stunningly beautiful castle in front of me covered with snowflakes, with carved railings and jade walls, and I cheered excitedly.

"Luffy, don't run so fast. We are here to find a doctor. You must know that this witch has a bad personality."

Usopp was worried that his captain would make another mistake, so he quickly caught up and pulled the extremely excited Luffy's cheek and gave a warning.

"What if you run around and make her angry? You must know that the witch is accompanied by a snow man."

Luffy didn't care about this, and started a snowball fight with Usopp who was trying to resist.

"Then we'll send it here."

The militiaman wearing a plush hat looked at Luffy and the others expressionlessly. He knew that these guys were pirates, and he would not have been willing to bring these people here if it weren't for Dalton's request.

"Thank you, sorry for bothering you."

Yuri could tell that their words were not very good and understood what they were thinking. Wang nodded slightly in the direction of the source of the sound and thanked them.

"Hmph..." The militiamen obviously didn't expect Yuri to thank them. Although they were still a little unhappy with the Straw Hats and the others, their faces were not as bad as before.

"Let's go in and find the doctor." Sanji, who was carrying Nami on his back, couldn't wait and turned around and said quickly.

"Thanks…"

Weiwei took Yuri's arm and followed him, nodding to the militiamen.

Looking at the Straw Hats heading towards the castle gate, the militiamen looked at each other speechlessly.

"These guys don't look so bad..."

"Hey, don't forget that they are pirates. How many good people can there be among pirates?"

"Okay, stop arguing about this, let's go back and report to Captain Dalton."

Inside the castle house.

A petite little reindeer wearing a pink dome hat with a white cross pattern on it, two small and exquisite antlers protruding from the sides of the hat, but a blue nose.

At this time, the little reindeer was lying in front of the window with its body hanging in the air, its round eyes curiously watching a group of strange humans walking towards the castle.

"Doctor Dolly, someone is coming outside the city gate~"

Kuleha, who had silver hair and wore a navel-baring outfit, was stylishly dressed, crossed her legs, took a sip of wine, and put the bottle on the table.

Wiping the foam from the corner of his mouth, he smiled strangely and said, "Are you here with a patient?"

"There seems to be a female human who seems to be in a bad situation." Chopper took a closer look with his small eyes and saw Nami, who was lying on Sanji's back with a red face.

"Eh hee hee~ You actually have the guts to come to seek medical treatment in person. It seems like you can make a huge profit..." Kuleha said, taking another sip of wine and waving her hand.

"Chopper, go open the door for them. Remember, if they can't afford what we want, let them go back from wherever they came from."

"Oh~"

Outside the castle gate.

Looking at the wide open city gate in front of them, the Straw Hats were a little confused.

"The door is not closed. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to just barge in?"

Usopp was a little hesitant to make any plans. After all, he remembered that the witch and Yukio lived here. Who knew if they would be attacked if they entered.

"I can't control that much anymore. Nami's illness won't last long."

Sanji said, carrying Nami on his back and walking inside.

"Hahaha, adventure adventure."

Luffy seemed to have forgotten the purpose of waiting for others to come here. At this time, he had been attracted by the castle and just wanted to go in and find out.

"Hey, wait a minute." Usopp saw them and walked directly inside, feeling a little anxious.

"Let's go, waiting outside in the cold wind is not an option." After Yuri said that, he and Weiwei walked inside.

"Eh…"

Usopp swallowed and watched as his companions entered one by one. Although he was still afraid of being attacked by the sudden Yukio, it would be more dangerous if he was alone.

"Wait for me, Yuri, Weiwei."

As soon as the few people stepped into the castle, they were attracted by the environment inside.

I saw that there was no so-called splendid and magnificent decoration in the castle. Everything visible is silvery white, and the surrounding walls and pillars are covered with crystal clear ice crystals, making it feel like stepping into an ice palace.

"What's going on in this castle?" Usopp stood close to Yuri's right side and carefully looked at the surrounding scene.

Just as Vivi supported Yuri and went up the spiral staircase in the castle with Usopp, they saw Luffy and Sanji standing still in front of them.

"What...what's the matter..."

Usopp stuttered and looked at the two motionless people, feeling a little scared.

Could it be that they were under the witch's spell?

But when they got closer, following the line of sight of Luffy and Sanji, they saw an unknown creature with most of its body sticking out from the corner, looking at them and the others.

What the hell is this.

Usopp's nose ran out, and he looked blankly at the creature in front of him who was hiding in a strange posture and began to sweat all over his body.

...

Seeing that the atmosphere became quiet, Yuri turned his head with a puzzled expression and moved his ears. He didn't hear any huge noise, but just sensed an aura in front of him that was almost two and a half Usopp strong.

"What kind of creature is this..." Sanji touched his chin and carefully looked at the strange animal in front of him that was sweating more with the same eyes he used when choosing ingredients.

"Is this a tanuki?"

Luffy replied excitedly, with tears streaming down his face.

"Asshole, I'm a reindeer, I have horns!"

After hearing what Luffy said, Chopper, who was still a little afraid of strangers, became angry and jumped out angrily pointing at his antlers and shouting.

!!!

"It can actually talk!"

"Amazing!!!"

"Yukio!"

Sanji, Luffy, and Usopp shouted in shock with different expressions.

"Get it now!"

Luffy rushed up without saying a word. He wanted to take a closer look at what kind of animal it was. It could actually talk. It was amazing.

"Ahhhh!!!"

When Chopper saw Luffy rushing over with his arms outstretched, he turned around and ran away.

As for what Doctor Dolly said, he had already forgotten all about it after being frightened.

"Luffy, remember to be careful not to hurt it. This is a very precious and rare ingredient." Since Sanji was carrying Nami on his back, he could only watch helplessly as Luffy chased this high-end ingredient alone.

He was waiting to process this talking creature into delicious and tender food using various cooking methods, and make a nutritious meal for Namisan who had cured her illness.

"This..." Yuri was speechless as he listened to the sounds echoing in the castle.

Luffy's cheerful laughter, and a clear and childish cry of a boy.

"Yuri, there really is a Yukio. Let's leave quickly." Usopp looked at the figures, large and small, running back and forth from the gates in various corners.

"Are you an idiot? How can Yukio be so cute!"

Weiwei glanced at Usopp speechlessly. How could such a cute little animal be Yukio? Even if it was, he was still a Yukio who could talk and was very cute.

"Ignore Luffy, let's go find Dr. Kureha first."

Yuri rubbed his brows, Luffy's cackles of laughter and Chopper's cries and curses kept echoing in his ears, which made him feel a little headache and a little amused.

Chopper, I won’t save you now. Let’s play with Luffy for a while.

Although he also wanted to chase Chopper, the top priority was treatment.
