Chapter 226: Treatment
Regarding Eric 's invitation, Law neither agreed nor strongly opposed.
Law had seen arrogance like Doflamingo's, who didn't shout about overthrowing the World Government but instead joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea established by the World Government, and eventually became the king of Dressrosa.
And now this newly appointed "Emperor" wants to overthrow the World Government?
What a joke. If it were so easy to overthrow the World Government, wouldn't the other three "Emperors" have done it already?
'The fewer people who know about this, the better.' Law actually hoped Eric would die soon and be reincarnated, so that Doflamingo wouldn't find any clues and follow them to his location.
The physical examination of Kurome was completed, and a treatment plan was formulated. Law put on rubber gloves and began injecting anesthetics to perform the surgery.
"ROOM!" A small air circle appeared in Law's right hand, quickly expanding into a half-circular blue energy shield, wrapping around Kurome on the operating table.
"Cut!" Kurome on the operating table was instantly divided into several pieces.
"Kurome!" Akame was shocked and reached for the Murasame sword at her waist.
"Wait." Eric reached out and hugged Akame, stopping her movement. "This is treatment. See, Kurome is fine."
"Sister, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all." Kurome looked down at her dismembered body. "It's really interesting. I never expected to be cut into so many pieces one day."
The sound of Kurome's voice slowly faded as she gradually fell unconscious.
Law, his face covered by a mask, scolded, "I told you to wait outside, but you didn't trust me and insisted on watching in the operating room. The procedure from now on is crucial, please don't disturb me."
"Sorry." Akame understood that her concern had caused disorder and sincerely apologized. "I won't make another sound."
"Good, finally, we can proceed with the surgery." Law used his Ope Ope no Mi ability to remove the large amount of residual drugs inside Kurome's body and repair the damaged tissues…
…
After nearly two hours, the surgery was finally over. Kurome woke up from the anesthesia and immediately climbed off the operating table.
Akame rushed over and tightly hugged Kurome.
"I've never felt this light before..." Kurome felt her body, as if reborn, her eyes filled with tears as she looked down and thanked, "Thank you so much, Dr. Law."
"No need to thank me. I'll still receive my payment from 'Emperor' Eric ." Law, sweating profusely, said. Using his powers for an extended period was still difficult for him, and he had completed the surgery only by gritting his teeth.
"If anyone should thank someone, it should be your captain." Law closed his eyes. "I never expected he would bow down to someone like me just to save you."
"She is my family. It's not shameful to lower your head for family."
Eric 's words hit Law like a heavy blow, deep into his heart.
Law remembered the parents who had doted on him in his childhood, his life-saving benefactor Mr. Rosinante, and his current three companions…
Law, with a cold expression, said, "Having a captain who treats you like family, congratulations. 'Emperor' Eric , don't forget to give me the reward—the Silent Fruit."
"No problem, just make sure to tell our ship doctor the aftercare instructions."
The four who had finished the surgery returned to the clinic's lobby, where Law stood frozen…
He saw Bepo prostrate on the floor, Esdeath sitting on his back, her legs crossed in a cool and alluring manner. Penguin and Shachi were kneeling in front of Esdeath, their necks adorned with collars, the other ends of the steel chains held by Esdeath.
Esdeath's two alluring long legs were tightly wrapped in white knee-high boots, her left leg elegantly draped over her right, the calf curving beautifully. The sharp tips of her boots swayed up and down, while the hats of the two kneeling men shifted in response.
Eric silently swallowed.
Esdeath raised her right hand, and the steel chains clinked, making a "clink clink" sound.
'Aside from not licking their boots, this looks just like the scene when I trained the northern heroes.'
Although Penguin and Shachi now appeared quite miserable, their faces were flushed with a somewhat amused expression.
The other members of the Dawn Pirates stood a distance away, observing coldly.
Esdeath turned her head and asked, "The treatment is finished?"
She patted Bepo's back and said to Eric , "Come sit. This is quite comfortable."
Law covered his head, "What are you all doing? Bepo, get up!"
Bepo, who usually obeyed Law, moved slightly, but was frozen in place by Esdeath's indifferent voice, "Hmm?"
"Esdeath, get down." Eric advised, accidentally blurting out, "If you're going to sit, sit on me..."
"Eric ..." Esdeath was overjoyed, her face turning red as she asked, "Do you like this kind of play?"
"No, you heard wrong."
Esdeath stood up, her left boot hitting the ground. Bepo, who had been underneath her, quickly ran behind Law, trembling all over.
Unfortunately, Law's frail body couldn't completely block Bepo's bulky body, making it look somewhat comical.
"Click, click."
Esdeath undid the collars on Shachi and Penguin. Shachi, still somewhat reluctant, said, "Is that it? Queen's training was quite interesting..."
The women present looked at Shachi with sharp eyes, their gazes filled with cold disdain.
"If you get the chance, I'll let you experience it in my interrogation room."
Esdeath's words immediately chilled Shachi's heart, and he quickly shook his head in refusal.
"Tsk, really boring." Esdeath muttered as she rolled up the collar's chain and walked over, "Kurome, how's your body now? Is everything healed?"
Esdeath seemed genuinely concerned about her former subordinate's condition.
Kurome nodded, "Thanks to Dr. Law, my body feels lighter than ever."
"That's good." Esdeath's gaze softened.
Law stood there and quietly added, "Even if your body is fine, no fighting for the next month." He turned to the others, "Who's the ship doctor? I need to explain her aftercare."
"Hi, hi~" Da Vinci raised her hand, "I'm the perfect big sister, the ship doctor."
The two walked aside, with Bepo following Law, as they discussed the aftercare.
"The surgery went smoothly," Eric said, looking at the collar in Esdeath's hand. "You carry this thing around with you all the time?"
"In case I find someone worth training, I can catch them on the spot." Esdeath looked at Bepo with interest, "Too bad the training session was so short today..."
Bepo, who was being stared at by Esdeath, began to tremble again, his bear paws pitifully clutching Law's clothes.
"Stop scaring him, it's kind of pathetic," Eric said, holding Esdeath back.
After seeing Law finish explaining everything, Eric asked, "How long will you stay on this island?"
"I'll leave soon." Law looked at Eric , "Since you've found me so easily, I'm sure you don't need me to leave any messages."
"Of course not." Eric then led everyone out of Law's clinic.
The Dawn Pirates came quickly and left quickly. By evening, when the town's residents cautiously returned, they found that the houses in the town were intact, without any damage, and their possessions were unharmed.
Law watched the direction the Dawn Pirates had left and finally spoke, "Bepo, prepare to depart. We're leaving this island."
