After a while, Chopper, who had agreed to let Luffy board the ship, walked back to the castle and asked the others to wait. He wanted to say goodbye to Gureva.
"Ah, so slow, why hasn't she come out for so long?"
Luffy pushed a snowball and ran around, muttering to himself.
"Baga, after all, Dr. Gureva and Chopper have lived together for so many years, isn't it normal to say goodbye for a while? Although Dr. Gureva looks fierce, she is a soft-hearted person."
Listening to Nami's words, Vivi beside her also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, maybe the two of them are crying in the castle at this moment. Parting is always sad."
"Is it really like that?"
Usopp touched his chin, thinking back to Gureva's usual appearance, and suddenly became a little suspicious.
Will those two guys really cry in each other's arms at this moment?
Just like what Usopp thought, when she heard that Chopper wanted to go to sea with him, Gureva was mostly relieved, but also a little sad.
After all, no matter who it is, after getting along with anyone for six years, feelings will arise in their hearts.
"You stinky boy, I won't let you go. You are my only assistant. If you leave like this, what should I do? Have I taught you for so many years in vain, and you don't have any gratitude to me?"
Gureva said this, half to pave the way for the future, and half to hope that Chopper can really stay.
At this moment, she thought that Chopper could go to sea, and she also thought that Chopper could stay.
However, there is no way to have both in the world. Whether to go or stay depends on his own choice.
"No, Dr. Doriel, I am very grateful to you, but I also yearn for the sea."
Chopper suddenly spoke.
"I am also a man now. I want to see what the outside world is like. I want to travel around the world and develop a real panacea."
Gureva sighed in her heart and chose to leave, but on the surface she looked at Chopper calmly.
"Don't joke, you are talking to me about being a man. Adventures on the sea are not so beautiful. You may die at any time. If you really want to leave, then defeat me first."
Chopper listened to what Gureva said, and thought about the scene when Luffy and the others invited him, and finally, thought of Hiruluk's words.
"Chopper, one day you will go out to this sea and take a look. Only then will you know how insignificant your troubles are."
Thinking of this, Chopper's eyes suddenly became firm.
"I'm sorry, Doctor Doriel."
Chopper said, and ran out of the castle.
"Chopper, you bastard, stop right there."
Gureva looked at Chopper's back as he left, and suddenly became furious. She took out two axes from her back and threw them at Chopper.
"Uh..."
Chopper was shocked to see the axe flying past him, and then he turned into a reindeer in fear, ran away quickly on all fours.
"Stop right there, you bastard."
Gureva held a huge meteor hammer and kept chasing.
There was a sudden noise inside the castle.
"What happened inside? It's so lively."
Luffy was a little curious about what happened inside, and suddenly wanted to go in and take a look.
Vivi next to him frowned.
"Really, these guys, can't they be quiet when they say goodbye like this? Why are they destroying the atmosphere so much?"
However, at this moment, Chopper's figure suddenly appeared at the gate, looked at everyone anxiously, and then spoke quickly.
"Everyone, get on board quickly, we're leaving."
Chopper was pulling a sled behind him, and his steps were fast.
Just when they were still wondering, Gureva had already appeared at the gate, swinging a meteor hammer in her hand, and suddenly threw it at them.
"You bunch of stinky brats, all of you go to hell."
Looking at the meteor hammer coming towards them, they were all shocked, their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
Then the next second, everyone jumped onto the sled and avoided the attack of the meteor hammer.
"So scary."
Usopp patted his chest, fortunately he was not hit, otherwise, he would really have to lie here.
In this way, Chopper pulled a few people and ran quickly on the rope.
"Wow~ So awesome, let's play again."
After landing smoothly, Luffy was very excited and cheered to play again.
"We are going to get on the ship, we can't play anymore."
Lin Lai reminded him from the side, andI couldn't help but turn my head to look at the towering mountain behind me and the castle on it.
"Oh, they're actually pushing out cannons."
Although Lin Lai knew what they were going to do, he didn't say it out of fun, but just said something that would be misunderstood.
"Nani."
Sure enough, when they heard the word cannon, everyone else couldn't help but exclaimed, and cold sweat appeared on their foreheads.
Good guy, are all the old people now so tough?
On the mountain, Dalton was now directing people to push out the cannons in the arsenal and came behind Gulewa.
"Are you just going to watch them leave? Why don't you say goodbye properly?"
"Ah, I hate to cry when I say goodbye, it's so troublesome, and Chopper was just a pet that someone else entrusted to me, but now this pet has been taken away by someone else."
Gulewa said this with her back to Dalton, but a string of tears had already appeared on her face without knowing when.
"Let's go."
Guleva suddenly turned around and walked towards the castle. Dalton scratched his head and secretly complained in his heart, what a dishonest guy.
"By the way, what do you want those cannons for?"
"Stop talking, you'll know soon."
Guleva said, and had already walked to the large open space in front of the castle gate.
Silently watching the backs of Chopper and others leaving, she suddenly spoke.
"Boys, don't leave so shabby."
She turned her head and looked at the residents.
"Are you all ready?"
"Ready."
"Very good."
Guleva nodded with satisfaction, and then suddenly gave an order.
"Fire the cannons to send those guys off."
"Yes!"
The next moment, the sound of bang bang bang continued to ring, resounding over the entire island.
"Hey, what's that sound?"
"It seems to be coming from the mountain. I don't know what happened to Dalton and the others."
The residents on the island were attracted by the sound and came out.
Then, the next second, they saw the unforgettable moment.
In the sky, pink snowflakes were floating, and the castle at this moment seemed to be wrapped in a group of pink cherry blossoms.
"What is this!!"
Dalton looked at the scene in shock, his eyes full of shock.
"It's so beautiful."
"Yes, it's such a beautiful scene."
On the sled, Luffy and his party couldn't help but show an intoxicated look and muttered to themselves.
And Chopper, who was running on the snow, suddenly stopped, looking at the pink snowflakes floating in the sky, looking at the snowflakes that looked like cherry blossom petals, and recalled scenes in his mind.
There were scenes of Gurewa teaching him to recognize medicinal herbs, scenes of his own failure in refining medicine, and scenes of being praised for finally making medicine successfully. Thinking about it, Chopper couldn't help crying loudly.
Looking at the mountain, his face was full of tears, and his voice resounded in this space.
"Doctor Doriel, thank you."
