I, Uchiha Hikaru, join the chat group

"height……"

"Blood sample..."

"Ultrasonic testing..."

Inside the "Blue Planet", there is a white room that looks quite sci-fi.

Uchiha Hikari and Bulma, who were wearing white coats and masks, were guiding Whitebeard to perform physical examinations one by one. Next to them, Tamayo and Yushiro, who were also dressed in white, were taking notes with pen and paper.

That's right.

Just a few hours ago, Whitebeard agreed to the deal proposed by Uchiha Hikari.

So, Uchiha Hikari set off for a trip to the Dragon Ball World next door. He picked up Miss Tamashii and Yushiro from Dr. Gero's research institute, and then formed a temporary team with Kikyo. Expert panel.

It is true that Platycodon has good medical skills.

However, due to the age and environment of Inuyasha's world, her research on most diseases still remains at the level of "knowing what is happening, not knowing why." On the other hand, Miss Zhuyo had already lived for three to four hundred years when the demon destroyed the world. She had been exposed to some modern medical equipment that was not sophisticated. After that, she went to Dr. Gro for half a year to study, and she had already vaguely risen to become a doctor. A medical all-rounder who has learned both Chinese and Western medicine.

Only by working together can the best research and treatment results be achieved.

Originally, Uchiha Hikari had considered bringing Dr. Gero with him, or going to the ninja world to help Orochimaru.

However, since this time it was just a preliminary inspection, and there was no need to make a huge effort until the situation was clear, we decided to give it up for the time being.

"How about it?"

As each test indicator comes out.

Uchiha Hikaru looked at the two doctors next to him.

Those inspections just now went quite smoothly.

Because there is a crew member like Yamato on the ship who is nearly three meters tall, when Bulma equipped the "Blue Planet" with a medical room, he chose extra-large testing instruments. Although Whitebeard is twice as tall as Yamato, which makes it impossible to use some instruments, most of the inspection items can still be performed normally.

And Whitebeard is also cooperative. After all, he also wanted to live a few more years to protect his "sons" from wind and rain, otherwise he wouldn't have a group of doctors and nurses on the "Modi Bic".

but……

The results of this inspection were not optimistic.

"…not good."

Jushi and Kikyo glanced at each other, and then the former spoke: "Although some indicators have not yet come out, judging from the current situation, this...Mr. Whitebeard's physical condition is very bad and has reached the point of terminal illness. If he doesn’t get proper treatment, he may not survive more than two years.”

"ah?"

Two more years to live?

Uchiha Hikaru raised his eyebrows, a little surprised by the length of time.

According to her own thoughts, she thought that Whitebeard would burp before he could even survive a year.

other side.

Marco, who was guarding the door because he was worried, also heard what Miss Jushi said. His eyes widened immediately and he questioned: "What? Only two years? Impossible! Dad's body is obviously still so strong..."

Uchiha Koshin asked, "Don't you think you have any idea when you say this?" Whitebeard himself is probably embarrassed to say that he is very strong...

"It's not easy to accept, but it's the truth."

Miss Tamashi sighed and turned her gaze to Kikyo.

Then, Kikyo continued to explain: "According to the CT and ultrasound scans just now, plus the results of my spiritual exploration, all of Mr. Whitebeard's blood vessels and internal organs have suffered a considerable degree of wear and tear. And the external Compared with the injuries, these internal injuries are the most troublesome and the key to determining the extent of this gentleman’s life.”

"...wear and tear?"

"Well, those injuries don't seem to be created all at once, but are gradually accumulated over a long period of time, so I use 'wear' to describe it. According to my guess, the appearance of these 'wear' has something to do with Mr. Whitebeard's related to ability.

"If you continue to use that ability without restraint, I'm afraid it will be a luxury to live for more than two years."

Kikyo said.

"..."

Uchiha Hikaru narrowed his eyes slightly: "So, is it really because of the Shock Fruit?"

really.

The effects of forces are reciprocal.

It is hard to imagine that a superhuman fruit like the Zhenzhen Fruit, which focuses on "causing vibrations", would not have any impact on you during use. As a member of the older generation of Yonko who lived from the Rocks era to the present, Whitebeard's current physical condition is much worse than Kaido and Big Mom, and I'm afraid this is also the reason.

Whitebeard understood now and couldn't help but frown.

"Can it be cured?"

"sure!"

This time.

Juyo and Kikyo answered simply.

Although Whitebeard's illness is already very serious, it is not a terminal illness that will lead to death.

As long as some key lesions are removed through surgery, supplemented with drugs, and treated well, there will be no problem in living peacefully for at least two to three years.

And if you want to go further...

"I can try to use the 'Light of Purification' to perform an exorcism ceremony for Mr. Whitebeard."

Platycodon pondered for a moment:

"As far as my personal feeling is concerned, the side effects of 'Devil Fruit' are not only on the physical level, but also partly on the spiritual level, like a kind of... erosion. Miss Guang, you should understand that Meaning, using 'Purifying Light' may have some unexpected effects."

“?!”

Hearing this, Uchiha Hikari’s eyelids twitched unconsciously.

She certainly knew what Kikyo meant -

The last few times this miko used the “Light of Purification” were all related to her. Almost all of them were because she used the “Eight Thousand Spears” to absorb too many external souls and was infected by the negative emotions contained in them, so she could only use the method of “purification” to expel them.

And now...

Use the “Light of Purification” on Whitebeard?

Could it be that the devil fruit also has the ability to absorb the host’s negative spirit? The so-called “devil” is not a virtual reference, but a real thing?

The truth is unknown.

Whether it is for Kikyo or Miss Tamayo, “Devil Fruit” is an unfamiliar topic. Without sufficient data support, they dare not easily conclude.

However, Uchiha Hikari has made a small goal clear because of this -

“It seems that it is really necessary to meet Vegapunk. Some questions about devil fruits may only be answered by him.”

At this time

Bulma, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly noticed Tamayo's expression of wanting to speak but not being able to, and couldn't help but ask: "Ms. Tamayo, do you have anything to say?"

"...I have an immature suggestion."
