Chapter 55 Movie (End) [VIP]
"Exchange! We surrender, Straw Hat gangster...boy, I have some important information that will surely interest you!"
After being beaten up by Luffy, Buggy decisively admitted defeat and played his trump card.
However, Luffy didn't wait for him to finish, and the last punch sent him flying into the sky.
"Boss Buggy!"
The crew members of Buggy's pirate group, who had just reunited with Buggy, shouted and quickly evacuated under the pretext of chasing the captain.
"Just wait, Straw Hat Boy, we will never let you go!"
"Boss Buggy, wait for us!"
Looking at the pirates who left in a hurry, neither the Straw Hat Pirates nor the Guerrillas gave chase.
They were all injured, and the more serious ones couldn't even get up. If they continued to pursue them, it would cause even greater casualties.
Soon, with the appearance of Kuleha, all the injured were transferred to the castle on the top of the mountain.
After bandaging himself, Chopper started to treat other people. His serious look made people ignore the fact that he was actually a reindeer.
A reindeer bandaging a person's wound... Even though we know it's due to the power of a devil fruit, this scene is still a bit too funny.
However, Chopper's medical skills are indeed good and he is very serious, but he is easily startled and shy.
As for Kuleha, apart from treating a few seriously injured patients, he spent the rest of the time drinking and watching, not looking like a qualified doctor at all.
"Thank you, thank you so much."
Dalton thanks Chopper.
Chopper immediately showed an embarrassed expression, scratched his head and uttered a completely unbelievable reprimand.
"Idiot~~ Even if you thank me I won't be happy~~~!"
Everyone who saw this scene smiled.
There was even a trace of saliva at the corner of Luffy's mouth, showing his emotion.
"Hey, Sanji..." He wiped the corner of his mouth.
Sanji nodded in understanding.
"Just let me stew it."
Chopper, who was still feeling embarrassed by the praise, suddenly felt a chill.
Fortunately, at this time, Kuleha punched the two patients who wanted to get out of bed to catch the reindeer for dinner, causing them to suffer new serious injuries.
Zoro sneered at Sanji with a gloating look.
If it weren't for Kuleha's death stare, there would definitely be a fight between the two of them.
…
As their injuries heal, the Straw Hat Pirates are about to set sail again.
Luffy cordially invited Chopper.
Although Chopper kept finding various reasons to refuse, in the end, he was refuted by Luffy's words.
"Stop talking nonsense and follow me!!!"
Standing on the Merry, Nami, who had recovered from a serious illness, looked at the top of the Barrel Mountain where a bright light suddenly lit up with everyone else.
In order to leave the hospital earlier, she made a deal with Kuleha.
Kuleha wanted to open the door to the castle's armory, but the key was in the hands of King Wapol, who was nowhere to be found.
When Nami heard this, she immediately said that she could do it.
When she was a thief, she had opened at least 800 locks.
However, she didn't quite understand why Kuleha wanted to open the armory, and what was stored there.
She was sure there was no treasure in the armory, only some shells.
Now seeing the lights on at the top of the mountain, she guessed it might be related to Kuleha opening the armory.
What on earth was that? Nami's eyes, illuminated by the light, suddenly widened in surprise.
The pink snowflakes all over the sky are like falling cherry blossom petals, adding a touch of spring to this winter island.
Chopper cried until his tears burst out.
This is Doriel, the doctor, and the nurse bidding him farewell on his voyage.
…
Immersed in this dreamlike beauty, Shanks raised his hand and actually caught a pink cherry blossom petal.
However, when he bent his hand to touch it, his fingers passed through it and it was just a shadow.
"It's just a holographic projection, it's all fake." Yale's voice came from the side.
A light sentence, accompanied by the soothing background music as the movie ended.
Shanks looked over, but couldn't detect any emotion in those golden eyes that were shining.
"I've heard of holographic projection, but I didn't expect it to be used in a scenario like this. Is this how you aliens watch movies?"
“There are many different types, this is just the most common one.”
In fact, Yale prefers to immerse himself in the movie, that is, to project his own consciousness onto the protagonist of the movie and experience the story immersively from the other person's perspective.
This is also the most popular type of movie among the stars - experiential movies.
Shanks was mildly interested, but right now he had something more important to ask.
"Why are you showing me this? You've been spying on Luffy and the others?"
As far as he knew, the Straw Hat Pirates had now left Drum Island and were heading towards Alabasta.
At this moment, what they can see is the Merry sailing on the sea, not their story on Magnetic Drum Island.
The only explanation is that Yale filmed the story of the Straw Hat Pirates on Drum Island and saved it as a movie.
But Shanks didn't understand why he did that.
If he wanted to use Luffy to threaten himself, then after taking Luffy's devil fruit, he could have locked up the Straw Hat Pirates on an island in the East China Sea instead of letting them go free.
The same goes for Buggy. Although Buggy appears as a villain in the movie, he is still an important friend of Shanks.
If this continues, Shanks will really suspect that Yale is actually targeting him.
As soon as this suspicion appeared in his mind, Yale, who had caught it, immediately laughed out loud.
"Hahaha, don't think too much about it. This has nothing to do with you. I just like this, watching them... grow, understand? Recording their growth, recording their joys and sorrows, just like..."
Yale thought for a moment and came up with a metaphor that people in this world could understand. "It's like their parents, who wish they could see their children grow up 24 hours a day."
Shanks couldn't hold back his emotions and looked at Yale with great surprise, who took it for granted.
He intuitively felt that this analogy was definitely not appropriate. He wondered if Yale had some misunderstanding about his parents or himself.
What kind of parents are like this?
Just casually monitoring the lives of the Straw Hat Pirates is simply perverted!
"You should call me Captain Yale. That's rude."
Yale corrected it casually, not caring whether it was perverted or not.
Put yourself in their shoes. When people watch ants moving, will others think they are abnormal?
Of course not, people will just think that he is bored, and now Yale is indeed such a bored guy.
He held out his hand, his patience beginning to run out.
"Alright, give me the devil fruit."
Shanks felt helpless at the way he asked for it with such confidence.
"I need to make sure my friends are safe first, and then I want to have a good chat with you."
"Isn't that enough? Native, being too greedy will lead to bad consequences."
Yale gave a warning with experience and popped up a screen in the air.
A top-down perspective monitors the panoramic view of the windmill village in Goa City.
Seeing that it was another surveillance camera, Shanks's eyes became even weirder.
This alien...can't be monitoring the lives of everyone on this planet all the time?
"You've seen it when you came here, right? People here live very well, working and living in peace and contentment, with equality and order. You don't need to worry about the safety of your friends at all."
Yale introduced it very proudly, using actual surveillance footage to show that he could indeed monitor everyone's life.
The scene changed, and Makino, who was busy in the tavern, wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the clerk to bring out a box of new wine from the storage room.
The scene changes again, and the village chief Wu Pu, who is sitting in the shade, is smiling kindly and greeting the children who have just got off the school bus.
The smooth road paved with bluestone slabs stretches all the way to the bustling city center.
In order to make money from merchants and tourists traveling to and from the border, and to make up for the economic income of Windmill Village since it is no longer close to the sea and can no longer fish, most of the residents of Windmill Village opened shops.
Some opened bars like Makino, while others opened restaurants, souvenir shops, clothing stores, etc.
This place is completely different from the windmill village that Shanks remembered.
But Shanks couldn't complain, because the changes made by the villagers of Windmill Village were for the sake of living, to live better than before.
They are indeed living better than before.
Shanks breathed a sigh of relief, feeling happy for them but also a little melancholy.
Soon, his complicated emotions at the moment were interrupted by Yale's voice.
"This is the second time I've tolerated you. So, it's time for you to keep your promise."
Shanks nodded and spread out his hands like a rogue.
"The devil fruits are all on the ship. How about we talk while we walk? You can come and take a look at my Red."
Yale didn't answer immediately.
He stared at Shanks for a moment, then suddenly laughed and stood up in compromise.
"Well, for the sake of those seven devil fruits."
"It seems you already know, is it through mind reading? There is intelligence that you possess this ability, and I have indeed experienced it just now."
Shanks followed him out of the room and into the brightly lit hallway.
This place is made entirely of metal, so smooth that it can even reflect a person's shadow, but no matter how many footsteps there are, they cannot form a noticeable sound here.
Yale walked ahead, his long red hair covering his waist.
As she walked, the intricate metal chains on her clothes swayed, reflecting light as dazzling as gems.
"You can understand it that way, but a more accurate description would be—I simply captured and read your brain waves."
Yale explained lightly, not caring whether Shanks understood or not, and continued to talk to himself: "Well, on the way here, you have already had a general understanding of this place, right?"
Indeed, even though Shanks did not directly integrate into the island group for observation like Beckman, Jesus and others, he saw many... noteworthy scenes on the way to the ship-borne spacecraft.
