"......" Nami opened her eyes, she slowly sat up from the bed, looking at the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but be a little stunned, her brain was like a dilapidated engine without oil, not working.

"Ahh You're awake! Nami! ”

Nami heard a familiar voice beside her and turned her head to look.

"Aaron..."She looked at Aaron, who was sitting quietly drinking tea next to her, and her eyes gradually returned to clarity, "This is..."

"This is a castle!" Aaron grinned, he sat in the high chair, sipping tea while shaking his slender snow-white legs, "How are you feeling now?" ”

"How does it feel?" Nami repeated unconsciously, she touched her face and gently put her cold hands together, "It feels better...... However, "

As she spoke, Nami pointed to the ball of brown flesh that had been peeking out of the door frame, "I've been paying more attention to it since just now, what is that?" ”

"Wow!" Seeing Nami pointing at him, Meatball took a big step back, and then, holding on to the doorknob, he hid himself behind the doorframe like a frightened kitten.

Well...... It's just hidden, and a round ass is exposed.

I said...... Are you hiding it backwards? Nami said with a black line on her face.

"......" Meatball didn't speak when he heard Nami's words, he paced slowly, slowly turned his body, hid his whole body behind the door, and looked out cautiously with his head exposed.

"It's too late for you to hide now..."The black lines on Nami's face are getting more and more.

"......" Hearing Nami's words, Meatball was silent for a while, and when he saw that Nami was still looking at him with strange eyes, he couldn't help but shout, "Don't be too proud! Mankind! ”

At the end, he asked cautiously: "... Has your high fever gone away? ”

"Huh?!" Nami looked at the ball of meat in shock, "Say... Spoken?! ”

Crackling and crackling!

Startled by Nami's sudden shouting, the ball jumped backwards unconsciously, then crashed into the operating table, then stumbled over the instruments on the side, and almost blinked to the room in the blink of an eye.

"How? Interesting, right? Aaron took a sip of hot tea and said to Nami with a smile.

"So, what the hell is he...""Chopper! Be quiet! ”

Before Nami could finish speaking, a neutral voice interrupted Nami's words.

"Hee-hee-hee-hee! Little girl, you're awake! With a string of night owl-like laughter, a fashionable and sexy old woman with sunglasses walked in, she held a bottle of wine in her hand, and walked straight to Nami's bed, "Boy, get out of the way!" ”

"Oh!" With that, Aaron put the teacup aside and obediently jumped off the stool, he picked up the stool and sat aside, his two big eyes flickering at the place.

Then, the old woman put an index finger against Nami's forehead, and at the same time her mouth grunted with wine.

"Hmm...... 38 degrees, so-so" After taking her temperature, she took her fingers back.

"You're—" Nami looked at the strange mother-in-law with some confusion.

"She's the one who saved you, oh Nami!" Aaron replied on behalf of his mother-in-law, and he said solemnly, "Mother-in-law said that if I was later, I would not see you...... But what does this 'can't see' mean? Did Nami almost learn to be invisible? In that case, why then?"

Boom!

Before Aaron could finish speaking, the old woman suddenly flew up and kicked Aaron to the side, "Kill the little ghost!" ”

Then she looked at Nami with a puzzled face, and couldn't help but laugh again, and then, she walked forward, lifted Nami's clothes, revealing Nami's frantic thin waist, she pointed to Nami's navel and said, "This is the cause!"

"Huh?" Nami was stunned for a moment, then looked down at her belly.

I saw that on her belly, at some point, a bright red mark like a plum blossom appeared.

"You've been bitten by a worm called Kesky, which lives in hot and humid forests, and it's a poisonous parasite," the old woman explained, sitting on the edge of the bed, "and the wounds that have been bitten by these guys can become infected, and they will be accompanied by a fever of more than 40 degrees, and severe infections will be complicated by meningitis, myocarditis, and arteritis, and judging by the wounds, this is the third day of your infection." ”

After a pause, the mother-in-law smiled and continued, "It won't be particularly painful, but if you don't leave it alone for another two days, it's over......... Hee-hee-hee-hee! ”

"Because by then, you were already dead," said the mother-in-law with a smirk.

"Wow!" Hearing his mother-in-law's words, Aaron was so frightened that he couldn't help but cover his face and scream.

"That's why this disease is also known as five-day disease, this virus should have been extinct a hundred years ago, if I didn't happen to have antibiotics, I'm afraid you would have to wait for you to die slowly."

"Whew! Fortunately, Nami, you are lucky," Aaron wiped the cold sweat from his head and said, then he looked at his mother-in-law, "By the way, I don't know what your name is yet, mother-in-law?" ”

"Hee-hee-hee-hee...... My name is Dr. Guleva," she said, taking off her sunglasses to reveal a pair of wise and kind eyes, "you may call me Dr. Doriel." ”

"It's a doctor," Nami glanced around, "So this is..."

"Are you going to ask me the secret to staying young?" Gureva asked.

"No... I didn't ask you" "Okay! Can you tell me how? ”

Before Nami refused, Aaron preemptively said, and Nami looked at Aaron a little helplessly: "Aaron, why are you asking this?"

"Because it sounds pretty powerful."

"But wouldn't you keep it young yourself? Even though he is in his twenties, he still looks like a child...... Who can take care of it better than you? Despite still being a little weak, Nami rolled her eyes unconsciously.

"That's right," Aaron scratched his head, thought for a moment, and felt that this seemed to be the case.

"So here it is..."

"This is the castle on top of the hill." Gureva took another sip of wine as she said, then she looked at Aaron, "You're saying he's in his twenties?" ”

"Listen to Aaron, he must be twenty-two or three years old," Nami said after a moment's thought.

"That's right..."After hearing this, Guleva nodded, and then she smiled and looked at Aaron, who looked puzzled, and asked with some curiosity, "Hehehehehehe, then boy, what is your secret to staying young?" ”

"There's no secret," Aaron scratched his head, "it's just a matter of course." ”

"Have you ever eaten a Devil Fruit?" Hearing Aaron's words, Guleva asked.

"No," Aaron shook his head, and then he added, "but I've eaten a sponge." ”

“？？？” When Gureva heard this, her face was puzzled.

Sponge thing... Can it still be eaten?

And you can stay young after eating?!

If we go back and study the ingredients of sponges, we may be able to develop new drugs from them. Gureva thought thoughtfully.

However, Doctor Doriel's idea was not destined to come true.

Because Aaron ate the sponge...... It is the only super-mysterious species in this world, tens of thousands of times rarer than Devil Fruits.

"Aaron, where are Luffy and Sanji?" Glancing at Gureva who was contemplating there, Nami looked at Aaron and asked.

"You mean the other two lads who brought you in, both of whom were frostbitten, and are now sleeping in the next room," replied Gureva, who came back to her senses from her thoughts, and then looked at Aaron with some strange looks, "But why is this kid not doing anything at all?" Except for a little less strength, it's simply not like a human being. ”

"Maybe it's because Aaron is a fool." Nami thought for a moment, then said uncertainly.

Fools don't catch a cold, that's the truth.

"Ahh That's right, that's right! Ignoring the strange looks in which the two of them looked at him, Aaron slapped his palms sharply, and then he looked at Gureva expectantly, "That...... Doctor Dorier, do you have any medicine that can increase your strength quickly? ”

"Huh? What do you want? Gureva asked.

"My strength is too small," Aaron said dejectedly, "Even if I get bigger, my strength will only double, if my strength can fight a little more, Luffy and Sanji will not be frozen and fainted...", he couldn't help but bow his head with some guilt.

"I see, it sounds like it makes sense," she said, guleva pouring another sip of wine into her mouth.

"So did you say yes?" Aaron looked up in surprise.

Well...... Hell knows where he got the promise from.

"But I don't have it," Guleva said lightly.

"Huh?" Aaron was dumbfounded.

"The kind of drugs that stimulate the potential of the human body have more or less some side effects, serious and can even directly turn people into wasters, this kind of harmful and useless drugs, has never been studied" Gureva said calmly, she looked directly into Aaron's eyes, "There is never a pie in the sky that is not poisonous, if you want strength, just exercise, don't think about what can become a strong man in one step." ”

"Oh......" Aaron nodded in confusion, although he didn't understand the meaning of Greva's words, but he still understood the most important meaning.

That is, there is no such medicine here, and his strength will not be great for a while.

Thinking of this, Aaron's face couldn't help but fall into his crotch.

"Help!!" At this moment, a terrible scream suddenly sounded, and approached the place from far and near.

Sou!

I saw Chopper running out with all his strength, and behind him, Sanji and Luffy scrambled to catch Chopper, all four hands kept stretching forward, trying to catch Chopper in front of him.

"Meat! Meat! "Wait, Luffy! This guy let me roast it first, it's better to make it delicious anyway! ”

"Luffy... Sanji..."Looking at Luffy and Sanji who were rushing over, Nami's heart also completely settled down.

Then she was forcibly knocked down by a hand.

"Sleep well! You are not healed yet! Greva said, then looking at the two of them who were fighting with Chopper, "It's amazing how quickly they can move"

"Of course!" Aaron said proudly, "Their resilience is monster-level!" ”
