Chapter 412 Valpo: Why! (Two in One)

[The Drum Kingdom, the Big Horn Town——]

The cold wind was howling and the snowflakes were falling.

A soldier lying on the snow covered his chest, trembling as he reached out to grab a shotgun that was scattered nearby...A foot came over to the side of the shotgun. The soldier held down the shotgun, blood flowing from his forehead, and looked up to see the young man who was only about 2.4 meters tall. He was like a high wall when he looked up at the young man lying on the ground...

"Shoot." Lynch looked down with his hands in his pockets. "I'm not angry."

"..." The prone soldier grabbed the shotgun, loaded the bullet, aimed at the young man's body, and pulled the trigger in one go, "Bang!"

In a flash, Lynch's two fingers turned into afterimages, accurately clamping the lead bullet emitting wisps of smoke in front of him.

The soldier was stunned, only to see Lynch pointing back and shooting a bullet, whoosh - bang, the lead bullet hit the soldier's forehead.

"Didn't you say... you weren't angry?"

"I'm not angry." Lynch said. The soldier fainted with tears in his eyes.

At this time, the king's soldiers were already lying in a mess on the snowy ground. They were all palace soldiers who were carrying out the routine plan to expel illegal doctors on the island...

All doctors outside the palace's team of 20 doctors are illegal, and they are hunted down and purged regularly, and all of them will be expelled from the country.

The surrounding streets were filled with residents of the Snow Country from the Big Horn town.

Earlier, when the residents heard Lynch asking directly where King Walpo was and threatening to kill him, they rushed forward and surrounded him.

The result was of course no different from what happened in the village of Kokoawit...

Even if Lynch stood still and let these villagers beat them until they were exhausted, it was hard to say whether they could break Lynch's defense.

The soldiers who were fighting with Dr. Kuleha didn't care about the task of hunting the doctor, and sent people to help.

Shouting in public to kill their king! How could this be tolerated???

Of course, their results were no different from those of ordinary villagers.

Lynch stood there and let them hit him, but it was their fists that felt the pain.

Lynch picked up a soldier and subdued them easily with a sweep. He clapped his hands.

The residents knew how powerful this man and woman were, so they stopped acting rashly and stayed at a distance, looking at the three people who had defeated all the soldiers in confusion.

Dr. Kuleha stepped on the soldier's head and drank the last bit of wine in the bottle.

Robin stood beside Lynch, holding the backpack strap with one hand, calmly observing the ordinary residents around him... They knocked down the soldiers of these countries, but there seemed to be no anger in these people's eyes.

Lin Qi laughed and said, "This old lady is really amazing..."

Whoosh! Kuleha threw a bottle at Lynch's face, and then snapped! Very quickly, she followed with a front kick and a left jab, knocking Lynch flying into the snow.

"You rude boy!" Kuleha raised her fists on her hips and said, "I am a beautiful 127-year-old!"

The residents who were watching in confusion were shocked by her actions.

The tall young man who was so fierce just now, the soldiers' attacks had no effect on him, even the guns couldn't hit him, and he caught the bullets with his bare hands... but he was knocked down by a punch from the old lady Dr. Kuleha? Robin smiled with curved eyes, standing there coquettishly, looking at Lynch lying in the snow.

Kuleha pulled down her sunglasses and put them on, then said with a grin, "Boy, you just said you were going to cause trouble for Valpo?"

"Yes," Lynch said, lying in the snow, "Old woman, can you lead the way?"

With a whoosh, Dr. Kuleha jumped high and kicked Lynch's head with a graceful kick like a falling silver blade.

With a loud bang, Kuleha crushed the snow with one foot.

Lynch, who was in the original position, got up slowly as she kicked him, and passed by Kuleha's kick just in time...

"As expected of a guy worth 400 million berries," Kuleha pulled out her foot, "Are we heading to the end of the Grand Line?"

"Well..." Lynch remembered that this doctor who was over a hundred years old mentioned "D's Will" like the village chief of Luffy's hometown after the Straw Hat Pirates took Chopper away. It seemed that she also knew the truth of the world... Lynch asked curiously: "Old lady, do you know what is at the end of the Grand Line?"

Huhu! Kuleha thrust a punch.

Lynch leaned back slightly to avoid the punch.

"Only the dead Pirate King Roger would know about that!" Kuleha said nonchalantly, "Want to go to the palace? Come on, I'll take you there."

Lin Qi smiled and said, "Really? Thanks!"

Kuleha looked at Robin, "The captain's bounty is even lower than the crew's. This kind of pirate group is not common."

Robin's smile remained unchanged, "Yeah."

"..." Kuleha chuckled, "This generosity is worth 100 million berries. Let's go! There is a mountain cable car outside the next town."

The old lady doctor turned and walked away, dressed in punk clothes and acting cool.

The residents saw this and shouted to stop them: "Kuleha! Are you going to take them to the palace? This is too much!"

"How could someone do such a thing?!"

"You are also a citizen of the Drum Kingdom!"

Kuleha pushed up her sunglasses and turned around to say, "My people? Are you sure? I have lived in this country since the father of that idiot Valpo was born... What is wrong with this country? Do you know better than a doctor like me?!"

The residents were speechless and stopped chasing because the tall young man walked backwards and waved his fist at them.

“…” Kuleha pulled down her sunglasses and continued walking out of the town.

However, when Lynch, Robin and she left the town of Big Horn, they were stopped by a group of people.

In the snow, neatly armed soldiers with guns surrounded them with serious expressions. The leader was a tall and strong man with a body as strong as an ox.

"Dalton," Kuleha paused. She obviously knew the captain of the palace guard of the Drum Kingdom. "Are you going to stop us?"

In the snow, dozens of soldiers raised their muskets. Dalton, the leader, looked solemn as he stared at Lynch and Robin next to Kuleha.

"Kujo Jolyne... Giovanna Giorno..."

…

[“Kujo Jolyne? Giovanna Giorno? Who is that?”]

[More than half an hour ago, someone came to report that pirates had invaded the village of Kokoawit. In the palace at the top of the Drum Mountain, King Walpo picked his nose and said indifferently.]

[“You actually threatened to kill this king? Moohahahaha! This is so funny!”]

[The two ministers on his left and right, Jace, who was carrying a bow and arrow and had wavy lips, and Cromalimon, whose fists were covered with black fur, also laughed along.]

[“He must be a rookie pirate who just entered the Grand Line! Haha, he really doesn’t know his place. He actually…”]

[They hadn't even finished their talk when the captain of the guard, Dalton, rushed in, panting while holding a newspaper. He said with an extremely grim expression, "Idiots! Are not only your brains, but also your ears and eyes completely blocked? Kujo Jolyne is a pirate with a bounty of 330 million berries! And her crew member Giovanna Giorno... the bounty is as high as 400 million berries!!!"]

[“Three hundred million—thirty million?!” Jace was shocked, and his wavy lips straightened.]

【“Four hundred million Baileys?!!!!” Cro-Malimon was so frightened that the fluffy black hair on his afro and his exploding fists almost flew off. 】

【“…………”】

[And Valpo himself, with his eyes wide open and snot running down his nose, had an expression of disbelief similar to that of Enelu.]

【330 million??? 400 million???】

[After all, he is a king who has participated in the World Conference. Even if Valpo is mentally retarded, he is not too ignorant. ]

[At least he knows very well what kind of monsters the pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million are...]

[And the monster among monsters with a bounty of over 300 million, up to 400 million! ]

[It also makes no sense for it to appear in the sea area at the front of this Grand Line. It should only appear in the "New World" at the back!!]

[I was sitting in the palace, enjoying myself, making whatever laws I thought of, and living my life happily... I was completely harmless, not provoking anyone, so how come two such scary pirates suddenly came to my door and wanted to take my life by name? ? ? ]

[This doesn’t make sense! ]

[Why?! Valpo's face turned blue, and he was vomiting blood.]

[“Assholes! Hurry up and protect the emperor! Get down and stop those two guys! We can’t let the pirates get to the palace!!”]

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

[In the silhouette of the Peak Palace, Valpo's angry shouts echoed, and Dalton led dozens of elite soldiers hurriedly down the mountain...]

…

"You guys achieved good results in the swordsmanship competition on the resort island more than a month ago... Why, why did you appear on this island?"

Dalton's face looked rather ugly. Although he was very powerful, facing these two pirates whose reputation spread all over the world, he knew that he probably didn't have much chance of winning.

"There shouldn't be anything here worth your while, right?"

"Yes, who said there isn't?" Lin Qi reminded, "Didn't I say I wanted to kill Valpo? His Swallow Swallow Fruit is quite interesting. I'm interested in it."

"......?!" Dalton was shocked.

Kuleha was also a little surprised.

"If it's a devil fruit..." Dalton exhaled two streams of white hot air from his mouth and nose, and his facial features quickly changed into those of a black bison. His already majestic body became even stronger and taller, and his bison-like eyes were covered with a layer of shadow. "You can take my devil fruit! Please leave the country now, how about it?"

"I said the common language, right?" Lynch turned around and asked Robin, who nodded. Lynch turned around and asked curiously, "Which word did you not understand? I said - I have my eyes on the Swallow Swallow Fruit, and I want to kill Valpo!"

He opened and closed his mouth and spoke in a clear and loud voice.

"..." The animal turned into a wild bull, and even grew two horns on its head. Dalton's eyes were bloodshot and he said in a deep voice, "So there is no room for negotiation?"

"It's you who insists on thinking there's room for negotiation!" Lin Qi put his hands on his hips and said nothing.

At Dalton's command, dozens of soldiers fired their guns and bullets were fired at Lynch and Robin.

"ha!"

Lynch took a step forward and raised his palm towards the rain of bullets.

Could it be?! Kuleha was shocked. She thought that the young pirate could stop all the bullets. But she was speechless as she saw the rain of bullets hitting Lynch's body without any hindrance...

"..." Lynch maintained a cool posture, with wisps of smoke rising from the places where he was hit by bullets, and lead bullets rustlingly falling on the snow under his feet.

Robin walked out from behind Lynch.

"They...are unharmed..."

The soldiers behind Dalton who were firing were horrified. "Is this still... a human?"

The shadow on Dalton's face became even darker. He gritted his teeth, roared, and rushed towards Lynch.

Bang! Lynch stood tall, motionless.

Dalton, who was like a wild bull, fell headfirst, with blood on his forehead. He had an incredible look in his eyes. He was a buffalo man who had eaten the bull-bull fruit. He was so strong that if he charged with all his strength, he could even smash a mountain into pieces... But when he hit Giorno just now, it was like hitting a huge steel wall. He was not a powerful bull at all, but rather an ant trying to shake a tree!

The gap... is too big!

"Captain," said Lynch.

Robin lowered his eyes, and dozens of soldiers behind Dalton screamed in unison!

Dalton also felt a sharp pain in his heart! "See you later." Dalton's vision went dark. He heard the pirate's voice and saw them passing by him...

Snap! Dalton's hoof caught Lynch's trouser leg.

In a flash, Dalton was covered in bruises.

It’s not that Lynch wanted to beat him, but this guy had strong will and determination. He was knocked down again and again, but he could get up again and again to block their way forward.

“Huff…Huff…”

Dalton, the black bison-headed man, stood up again, his head and face covered in blood, panting tiredly, "I am the captain of the king's guard... If you want... huff, huff... If you want to hurt the king... Unless you... huff, unless you... kill me!!"

The wild bull's roar echoed among the white mountains, and the snow trembled.

"If you keep yelling, there will be an avalanche, buddy." Lynch covered Robin's ears with two fingers, "If you keep getting beaten, you'll really die."

Dalton's eyes were bloodshot, "I deserved my death!"

"Oh, really?" Lynch asked with a smile.

As if being stung, Dalton's bull's eye pupils shrank.

At this time, Kuleha said, "Dalton, since you can't stop him anyway, why don't you come together? Let's talk about it after we get to the palace. How about that? Didn't he say that he was interested in Walpo's Swallow Swallow Fruit... maybe we don't really need to kill that guy!"

“…” Dalton was silent.

"That's right, let's follow and take a look." Lin Qi consoled with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm pretty good. If I'm determined to kill that guy, do you think you can stop me?

"If you are going to die, at least you should die in front of the king you are going to protect, right? " "If you can still die by then..."

The four of them came to the mountain cable car on the edge of a cliff in the suburbs. Dalton remained silent all the way, keeping his bison head and never letting down his guard against Lynch and the other man.

Lin Qi's words echoed in his mind. What does "if you can still die by then" mean? ………………

A slender rope led to the towering columnar peak of the Drum Mountain, at the top of which was the palace.

The cable car hangs under the rope and slowly rises forward.

Lin Qi was sitting in the cable car carefree. He felt that the atmosphere was a little quiet, so he casually brought up a topic, "Is the girl who was arrested before also a doctor?"

"That little girl..." Kuleha smiled, "She can't even be called a doctor with that level!"

Dalton, who had a black bison head, sat opposite Lynch in the cable car. He was silent for a while and then said, "If you mean the girl named Rose... I know her. She came from overseas to study medicine a year and a half ago... But at that time..."

"At that time, Valpo had already issued a law to hunt doctors." Kuleha buried her eyes in the shadows and smiled, "She came at the wrong time! She must be very disappointed..."

“…………”Dalton was silent.

"Is that her?" Robin pointed to the mountain outside the cable car window.

Lynch, Kuleha, and Dalton looked over and saw a perfectly circular hole on the snow-covered columnar mountain wall. The girl they had seen being chased by soldiers in the town of Big Horn was sitting at the hole with her knees hugged, seemingly looking at the snowy scenery. She just happened to see them and was looking over here too...
