To the end of the sea [One Piece]
Chapter 17 Dr. Kuleha and the Blue-Nosed Reindeer
"Doctor Dori! There's a person here!"
"Hey, how is this possible... Chopper! She's freezing to death! Get her inside quickly!"
"Yes!"
She was placed dazedly on the back of some kind of furry animal and moved forward with a jolt.
So warm…
----------------
When Ena finally woke up, she found herself lying on a small bed. She sat up slowly, her skin tingling.
Snowflakes were falling outside the window, and there was no one in the house. The stone walls are inlaid with wooden bookcases, and the fireplace in the distance quietly provides warmth to the room.
what happened…
She remembered being sucked into a black hole-like whirlpool in the whale's mouth, and then waking up here.
"Is there anyone..." she asked hoarsely.
No one answered her.
Eina looked at her body and found that there were layers of bandages, and there was something applied inside that was separated from the skin, bringing some coolness to the stinging skin. There were a few pills and an empty cup on the cabinet beside her, and a wet towel lay beside it.
Something crept in.
Eina raised her head and found that it was a strange creature.
It is petite, wearing a red hat, a pair of horns on its head, and its body is covered with thick fur, but it walks on two legs.
It...or rather he, didn't seem to notice that the patient in the room had woken up. He concentrated on walking to the bookshelf opposite the bed, trying to reach for one of the books.
"That, that..." Eina said softly.
! ! ! ! ! ! !
The strange little animal seemed to be greatly frightened, and let out an indistinct scream. As it turned back, it knocked down a pile of books, causing them to fall to the ground with a clang of bells. However, he didn't care and quickly ran behind the wall to try to hide his body.
But he seemed completely confused about the direction of his head and body. He actually used his two hooves to pick up the edge of the wall and hid his head behind the wall, leaving his entire body completely exposed to view.
Eina suddenly wanted to laugh.
"That... body is exposed." She reminded him while suppressing a smile.
The other party did not change his hiding position because of this reminder. He was so frightened that he jumped in front of the wall, pressed his back tightly against the wall and remained motionless, his two round eyes widening.
Ena also saw his appearance clearly.
It was a reindeer with a blue nose. Although it walked on two legs, the characteristics of the animal could still be seen.
"It turns out to be Mr. Reindeer..." Eina whispered, then asked him softly: "Excuse me, where is this place?"
"This is my home." A sharp and hoarse female voice came from the other side. Eina looked over and found that it was a tall, thin, elderly woman.
She is said to be an old man, but she is holding up a bottle of wine and drinking in a gangly manner. She is said to be a young man, but her long gray hair and wrinkled skin cannot hide her age. .
But the most contrasting thing is her extremely vitality and her disdain for everything.
"Sorry...please ask why I am here..."
"I should ask you this little girl." The woman sat down on the edge of her bed and put a finger on her forehead. "37 degrees... It seems that the fever has basically subsided."
Eina was surprised by her sensing ability, which was like a human thermometer, and moved slightly away from her touch: "Are you a doctor?"
"Want to know my secret to staying young?" the other person replied in a nonchalant manner.
Eina frowned and thought seriously: "What is your secret to staying young?"
"Hey hee hee hee!" The woman laughed, took a big gulp of wine, and showed a proud smile: "You are happy, little girl. So, are you happy now?"
"I'm not happy." Eina said, "I don't know why I appeared here. I was sucked in by a whirlpool, and then when I woke up, I was already in bed. And I was separated from my companions."
"Well." The woman took another sip of wine, "Call me Kuleha. I am the doctor on this island. A few days ago, my assistant and I went down the mountain to treat people. When we came back, we saw you facing Buried in the snow. When I rescued you, you were covered in frostbite and had a high fever. No wonder you were only wearing such thin clothes. It turned out that you came here suddenly from somewhere else."
Eina opened her eyes in surprise: "Where is this?"
"Drum Island." Kuleha said, "It's just a small island on the Grand Line. So, what is the whirlpool you mentioned?"
Eina's mind was in a mess. She tried her best to recall what had happened to her before, and then she remembered the feeling of catharsis and loss of control that seemed to occur when some part of her body's power was suddenly unlocked. She suddenly came up with a guess.
"Maybe... my fruit ability..." she murmured to herself.
"You can't control your own fruit power?" Kuleha said, "What kind of fruit is it?"
"I don't know..." Eina frowned, "I..."
She suddenly stopped talking.
Although the woman in front of him saved him and didn't look like a bad person, the clumsy little animal just now was also an element that made people relax their vigilance. But she still didn't continue.
Kuleha didn't care about her reaction at all: "So, who are you?"
"Pirate." Ena said, "I suddenly disappeared when I entered the Grand Line with my companions."
Before Kuleha could say anything, the creature that had been silent for a long time suddenly exclaimed: "Sea...pirate?!"
"Say...speak!!" Ena sat up straight in shock and stared at him closely.
The other party's body, which had relaxed due to her conversation with Kureha, was once again pressed against the wall.
"Ah, that's my assistant, his name is Chopper." Kuleha waved her hand casually, "Don't be in a daze, Chopper, come here and give this little girl a glass of water."
Chopper stared hard at Ena, moved like a crab to her bed, grabbed the water glass and ran away.
Eina really can't resist this cute creature. She asked Kuleha: "He just spoke..."
"Don't worry, it's the power of the Devil Fruit." The woman answered her, "He is a reindeer who ate the Renren Fruit. He was adopted by me and will be my assistant."
"So Chopper can also see and cure diseases?" Eina shouted, "That's amazing!"
Crash, the sound of a cup breaking was heard not far away. Then there was the sound of hurriedly cleaning up the debris.
"Ah, he is the idiot son who has inherited all my medical skills." Kuleha smiled and took a sip of wine.
--------------
Ena thought of Luffy and the others: "Thank you, Doctor Kureha... But I must go find my companions immediately. Is there a boat nearby that I can borrow to go to sea?"
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. When Eina reacted, she was pressed against the wall by Kureha with unimaginable skill and speed, and a scalpel was pressed against her neck.
"The patients under my command... If you want to disappear, there are only two options: recovery and death..." She said with a sinister smile, "Before your frostbite and low-grade fever are cured, if you want to leave, just try it. "
Eina was scared out of her mind: "Okay... okay! I understand!"
Kuleha put away the scalpel with satisfaction, sat up straight, and drank wine nonchalantly.
This doctor...is absolutely terrible. Ena thought fearfully. She still had some confidence in her own skills, but the moment the woman she thought was just a medical staff attacked her, she was subdued before she even had a chance to react.
Is this, is this the doctor of the Grand Line? She couldn't help but think blankly.
"I'll come and change your dressing in the evening." Kuleha stood up and waved, "Before that, if you have anything to do, just ask Chopper."
----------------
The petite and cute reindeer doctor approached her with a glass of water as if he was in danger.
Eina looked at him with interest, making him squeeze the cup harder. But for some reason, he was a little less vigilant towards Ena than before he poured the water.
"Here...your water." He carefully placed the cup on the cabinet.
"Mr. Reindeer's speaking voice is so cute." Eina smiled and picked up the glass of water. "And he can actually cure diseases. It's really amazing. Thank you for saving me."
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Again... I was praised by this person again! ! !
Chopper's whole face turned red, and then he began to twist unconsciously, with a silly smile on his face: "Just...even if you praise me, I won't be happy! You bastard!"
You are obviously so happy that you are about to bloom, okay?
Eina smiled and asked him: "Chopper, when you found me, was there anything around me?"
"Yes." Chopper stopped twisting and looked at her with his eyes basically letting go of his vigilance: "There is a very long knife and a small package. By the way...your clothes and bandages are Doctor Dori's." The replacement for you has been washed and dried."
Ena felt relieved a little. Yugiri was always with her, even if everything was gone, Yugiri would still be there. But when she heard that she had brought the package with her, she felt much relieved.
Fortunately, she gave Nami the phone number.
She asked Chopper to bring her luggage and found her phone bug. Her phone bug has emerald eyes and a silver shell. Eina found the note with Nami's number on it and called Nami's number, but no one answered.
What's going on... She felt relieved again just now.
Could it be possible that he was really swallowed by a whale? Now everyone has been buried in the belly of the fish?
It's impossible... Judging from the fighting prowess of those idiots on his ship, there's no reason why the Grand Line would die before it even started. What's more, there are chefs of Sanji's level. Compared with them being eaten by whales, they have a higher chance of cutting the whale into pieces and using it as food reserves.
But at least now they should still have some special circumstances, otherwise they would not not contact her or answer her phone calls.
She sighed, there was no point in worrying, she couldn't leave either.
I can only wait for recovery while continuing to try to contact Nami.
------------------
"Um..." Chopper whispered, Eina put the package down and looked over: "What's wrong?"
Chopper lowered his head: "You said you were a pirate...right?"
"correct."
"What does it feel like to be a pirate...?"
Eina thought about his question seriously: "Being a pirate...Actually, I can't answer you well yet. Because I am very ashamed. I have only been a pirate for about a month."
"Eh?" Chopper looked at her in surprise, "Then what did you do before? Why did you suddenly become a pirate?"
"Pirate hunter." Eina grinned a little evilly, and got her wish when she saw Chopper's frightened face.
"Hai... pirate hunter! But... became a pirate?!" Chopper was a little confused.
"I don't know either." Eina shrugged and sighed, "Being a pirate hunter is to support yourself, not because of any dreams... There doesn't seem to be any objectionable emotions about being a pirate. , so when my captain invited me on board, I went to sea with him.”
"So that's it..." Chopper said, "That's great..."
Eina tilted her head and looked at him for a long time. The little reindeer seemed to be caught in some kind of memory. She asked him tentatively: "So, what about Chopper? Do you also want to be a pirate?"
"I don't want to be a pirate!" Chopper shouted. But the twinkle in the simple-minded reindeer's face and eyes betrayed him without hesitation.
"I'm just...just a reindeer...a pirate or something, how is that possible?" Chopper said in a low voice, lowering his head. Ena's extraordinary perception allowed her to not miss this sentence.
She stretched out a hand towards it gently: "Chopper is no ordinary reindeer, he is a very powerful doctor, isn't he?"
Chopper seemed to have been hit hard by something, staring at her with his mouth wide open. After a few seconds, he jumped up, stepped back, and said fiercely: "Anyway...anyway, I'm in the room next door. If you need anything, come back to me!"
Although his tone was trying to sound ferocious, his panicked eyes were not intimidating.
Ena watched him run away quickly.
The room fell silent again, except for the occasional small crackle of firewood in the fireplace.
She lay down and sighed tiredly.
Chopper was the first person to ask her why she wanted to be a pirate. In fact, she had never thought about her dreams or what she was living for.
She is a person without past or future.
From the moment she woke up in this world, she was immersed in one mystery after another. Why did her memory disappear? What was her fruit ability and why did she lose control? What kind of past did the strange dagger buckle and ring represent? Why did she feel disgusted when she saw the naval flag? Why did someone she felt familiar tell her... They don't know her at all...
She is just a traveler desperately moving forward in the fog, and even the reason for setting out has been lost on the road.
How can she talk about "what she wants" like this?
She just wants to know all of her past so that she can have the strength to think about her future.
