Chapter 445: Shattered Dreams
β.. Such an island, even if I am full of reason, I don't think it would be such a good place to go. "I don't think anyone who survives in such conditions will be some kind of doctor with a gentle temperament." β
An island with a strong ghost island atmosphere, and a sense of shadow shrouded in the body. In the absence of light, there was not a shred of green, the branches were twisted, and the bark was grayish-black, as if it were like the deadly wood demon in a fairy tale, and anyone who saw it would feel uneasy, especially when the light was occasionally accompanied by lightning. Cool, moist soil seems to leach out when your feet step on it. Not to mention, there are tombstones in some places.
"Temperamental? Who's to say yes. Fang Xing said, "I never said that Dr. Hogubak was gentle-hearted. β
"I looked at Chopper's adoring look and thought he was a good doctor." Robin was a little surprised.
"It may have been, but not now." Fang Xing added, "People always change. β
"What about you? Will it change too? β
"Admittedly, I would too, but how to change is not something one can predict. For example, I used to be mentally imprisoned, and it was difficult to even kill a pirate. β
"It's unimaginable."
Robin was silent after expressing his opinion, because since she met Fang Xing, his performance had been very strong. No matter what kind of force he faced, his performance did not change at all, and it was hard to imagine that such a person would not even dare to kill an ordinary pirate before, and the reason was such a simple thought imprisonment. But when she thinks about it, she wasn't so surprised. As Fang Xing said, people always change, before experiencing O'Hara's change, she was also a naΓ―ve girl, but the reality made her have to adapt to life.
The interaction between the two did not affect the others, Sanji was immersed in preparing a bento for Miss Robin, while Chopper prepared the things he needed to meet with Hogubak, medical books, questions to ask, gestures, etc., as well as the equipment needed to guard against ghosts...
They came to the palace, and it was curious that there was an ancient aristocratic palace on such an island.
"Welcome, welcome." Hogubak greeted him at the door. This is a somewhat terrifying person with a small round eyelet mirror, a diamond-shaped chin, and grinning sharp teeth.
He was fat, but he didn't look like a languid man, and his beard and hair were only neatly groomed.
Beside him stood a pale-skinned female assistant, not so glamorous in this complexion, but rather ordinary, and more like a corpse than a living person. Her dress contrasts with Hogubak's, who wears a nurse's uniform while Hogubaq is wearing a doctor's attire. But compared to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, the two are more like a couple.
It's just that her expression has always been stiff, and her movements are frozen there, and when she sees the visitor, her expression has not changed at all.
"Boom! Boom! Hogubak let out his distinctive laugh. This is my wife, Sindoli. β
Sindoli ignored her husband's introduction, and walked in so impolitely, leaving a Hogubak alone on the field, looking a little embarrassed.
"Hogubak . . . Looks like you know the news we're coming. β
Hogubak smiled and didn't speak.
"Doctor Hogubak! Can you sign me? Chopper greeted him, looking like a starchaser, even forgetting the remaining fears on the island for a moment.
Hogubak also showed a face that was not at all modest in the case of his fan brother Chopper, and the bridge of his nose on his face was slightly hanging, which seemed to reflect his vanity.
The two doctors chatted happily, and Hogubak led them in as he talked to Chopper.
"It really doesn't look like a good person." Robin whispered.
"yes, the villain in a proper story." Fang Xing replied.
"Supporting roles? Indeed, he is not good-looking, and he can only play a supporting role in the story, so you are the villain. Robin quipped.
Excellent appearance, strong strength, plus three wrong views, a proper villain protagonist aura.
"You seem to be right when you say that." Fang Xing spread his hands and didn't mind.
"What are you talking about?" Hogubak asked. He looked curious, his neck stretched out, and his lenses flickered in the interior light.
"It's nothing, just talking about the characteristics that the main and supporting characters in the story should have." Fang Xing said.
Hogubak wondered, his mouth grinning at what he wasn't thinking.
"Too close!" Sanji scolded, carrying a huge package on his back, squeezing the two of them apart.
The sudden squeezing action caused a muffled snort to be heard in the air, and Hogubak lowered his head slightly, glanced at the empty ground, and then said: "Come into the room, it will be warmer if there is a stove in the room." β
Fang Xing glanced at the position that Hogubak had just looked at with inconspicuous eyes, and he accurately sensed the existence of a person.
He instantly knew who that person was, it was Moonlight. One of Moria's three eccentrics, Absalom. With the transparent fruit, he is able to hide himself in any place.
Led by Hogubak, they came to a strange room, with a fireplace, a dining table, a fresco, a carpet, and an operating table.
In a room like this, isn't there a fear of bacterial infection when you put an operating table?
But the excited Chopper didn't notice anything unusual at all, he just thought that Hogubak was obsessed with medical research and would have medical equipment in his room.
Sanji's nose twitched slightly, and he tried to smell it, but the smell of rotten flesh was hidden in the surrounding room. A qualified chef is extremely sensitive to smells.
Robin also looked at him and nodded at it, which made him even more suspicious.
"Can you take a walk?" Sanji asked suddenly.
Hogubak looked flustered, like an entertainer with poor acting skills, his body trembling, and his forehead sweating.
Really. Sanji confirmed his conjecture that there was something wrong with this doctor.
In line with Hogubak's nervousness, the mural's eyes rolled. However, before the matter was revealed, Sindoli stepped out.
Her appearance made Hogubak sigh inexplicably, he recovered a little natural, and explained in a far-fetched way: "Many of the lights in the room have been damaged, and it's not too late to go for a walk after resting." And little doctor, I want to discuss with you a few questions you just raised. β
Chopper was even more excited, and it almost couldn't wait to get started.
"Shall we start eating, then?" Hogubak proposed.
"No need." Sanji refused, he pointed to the package behind him and said, "I'm ready, you have a wife who should understand the joy of letting the women you like eat the food you make." β
Sanji said it naturally, he acted almost by nature, and there was no problem exposed, and Hogubak did not suspect what he had discovered.
"Sindoli, prepare a room for the guests." Hogubak said that Sindoli walked out with a calm face on his orders.
Sanji took advantage of the dining table, took out the bento and put it on the period, and treated Robin with courtesy, and when Hogubak didn't notice, he carefully leaned into Robin's ear, made a somewhat ambiguous gesture and said, "There is a problem here." β
Robin smiled, his expression not changing in any way because Sanji suddenly mentioned this. She showed great resilience and replied in a voice that could only be heard by Sanji, "I know, Fang Xing seems to have found other clues. β
Sanji got up indifferently, prepared another food for Fang Xing, and made a "swish" sound.
This is a protest against the other side, and the subtext is to say again, "You kid, when you found out the clue, you didn't even tell me." "Although I have been accustomed to Fang Xing's approach, I always feel a little uncomfortable.
Of course, this is also his true character, and he didn't deal with Fang Xing very much.
Fang Xing didn't say anything, just ate casually, and just paused for a while, when Sanji was about to leave, he whispered: "I said it, your dream is shattered." β
"What?" Sanji looked puzzled, he hadn't taken it to heart before, but when Fang Xing mentioned it again, he couldn't help but wonder what it meant.
Chopper hurriedly settled the meal and went to discuss it with Hogubak.
Sanji didn't plan to startle the snake, he quietly did nothing happen.
Until... In the middle of the night, Robin walked into the arranged room as if he was unaware, and then prepared to take a shower like a normal woman.
"Why are you here?" Sanji couldn't help but ask.
"Just like you." Fang Xing said.
The two of them hid in the closet of the room, and when Robin was about to enter the shower, the two of them were like criminals who were about to peep.
"After finding out that there is something wrong with this place, how can I let Miss Robin stay here alone, I won't peek, but you..."
Sanji expressed strong dissent from Fang Xing, and he had doubts about whether Fang Xing could manage his eyes.
"You stitch your fingers back on first." Fang Xing said.
Sanji simply removed his hand, "I have to ensure Miss Robin's safety." β
"In terms of strength, it's obvious that I'm stronger, and I'm able to provide better protection."
"But you have bad intentions, and judging by your usual behavior, I'm not sure what you'll do to Miss Robin."
Fang Xing shrugged his shoulders and looked at Shanzhi with white eyes, it was obviously you who had evil intentions. However, out of Sanji's gentlemanly ways, he will not do anything wrong. This is the saying "color heart, color guts." β
The argument between the two did not last long, and suddenly there was movement outside the door, and the lights were still kept inside, and it could be seen that the doorknob suddenly moved and was pushed open without anyone pushing it.
"It's a human?" Sanji asked.
Knowing that Fang Xing could control his voice and not let it leak out, he still asked out loud under such circumstances. He seemed to understand what Fang Xing meant, the so-called dream.
"It's a human, it's an invisible person." Fang Xing made up for the glimmer of hope that still existed in his heart.
Invisible?
In addition to going to Fish-Man Island and All Blue, Sanji's dream is also a dream that has never been revealed to others, that is, the miracle of the sea, the invisible fruit of the Devil Fruit.
He had always cherished this dream, and this was a large part of the reason why he stepped into this treacherous sea. Dreaming of having an invisible body, and then entering the women's bathhouse in the bright light...
This is a dream that every normal male will have.
However, now the dream is shattered, and the man who took away his dream still wants to spy on his Miss Robin.
I can't forgive it!
Sanji suddenly rushed out, Fang Xing was not surprised, and he also rushed out in an instant, some things must be open and honest.
This sudden situation also frightened the invisible man Absalom, who suddenly let out a shocked sound.
This gives Sanji a basis for judging the direction.
"Here!"
Sanji instantly turned on his full power, and the demon's wind foot was directly used, and the fiery red flame leg swept directly on the body of Absalom.
Bang!
A violent sound came from Sanji's legs, and his legs kicked in the air, but they made a real impact.
Absalom was then swept out, a man with a leopard face. Sanji didn't stop attacking, and a series of kicks and kicks were made to Absalom's body, which was venting his unspeakable anger inside.
After a few moments, Absalom lay dying on the ground.
Fang Xing was not surprised, Shanji's strength was originally stronger than Absalom, plus Sanji, who had mastered domineering and demonic wind feet after being trained by him.
Robin walked out scantily dressed, and she naturally put on her coat with Sanji's expression almost petrified.
"Is it so exposed?" Fang Xing asked.
"Isn't that going with your thoughts?" Robin said.
"I don't think I'm such a lewd person, but does it matter? Now it looks like there's a guest coming. Fang Xing said.
"Speaking of which, we're the guests." Robin said.
"Hee-hee-hee..."
Before you see him, you hear his voice first. A seeping laugh came through the dark door.
Then a tall, but swollen man walked in. His skin is somewhat purple-white, his teeth are sharp, and he resembles an ugly humanoid puppet. He was hunched over, his towering height, especially his slender neck, which prevented him from passing through the door properly.
He's moonshine. Moria, also one of the Seven Martial Seas.
"Rare guest," he said.
"Looks like you knew I was here." Fang Xing said, "I'm curious, how do you know. β
If it is said that these zombie eyeliner in the island is exposed, the distance is conveyed to the moonlight. Moria, and his arrival are taking time points while apparently moonshine. Moria stayed in the house early in the morning, waiting for his arrival.
