One Piece: Don't Worry, I'm a Doctor

But just at that moment!

A loud *boom* echoed through the air.

It sounded like the firing of a cannon.

Immediately after, an explosive crash erupted from the entrance.

Everyone turned toward the source of the sound.

The front gate had already been blasted to pieces.

Through the gaping hole, they could see a massive figure standing outside—a rotund man with striking purple hair.

It was none other than the former king of this land, Wapol.

After their encounter at sea with Luffy and the others, suffering a humiliating loss, Wapol had chased them all the way back to Drum Island.

"Moo-hahaha! Get out here! Or I'll reduce this place to rubble!"

Wapol's arrogant voice bellowed from outside.

Vir watched as Wapol ranted and raved beyond the broken doorway, his brows furrowing slightly.

How did this guy get here so fast? That didn't make sense.

Luffy's injuries hadn't been treated yet, and Sanji was in pretty bad shape too.

Chopper alone wasn't strong enough to take on Wapol. This was a serious problem.

Originally, Vir had planned to heal both Luffy and Sanji, allowing them to fight at full strength.

But before he could even start treating them, the enemy had already arrived at their doorstep.

He had intended to rely on his medical knowledge to patch them up gradually, but now time was of the essence.

He had no choice but to turn to the system's shop!

Vir remembered seeing a bruise ointment in the store while browsing earlier. It should be useful for treating Sanji's back injury.

But even if Sanji recovered, he still wouldn't be strong enough to take on Wapol alone.

Despite Wapol being trash, he still had some combat ability.

And Vir couldn't find a suitable remedy to heal Luffy's injuries.

That meant his best bet was to fix Sanji up first and see if he could acquire his 'Black Leg' techniques.

With Chopper's 'Leg Enhancement' ability already in his arsenal, combining it with Sanji's kicking techniques would make his strength skyrocket.

Taking down Wapol shouldn't be a problem then.

For now, Chopper would have to stall him. Luffy was in no condition to fight—his arms and legs were too severely injured.

As Vir was strategizing, Luffy couldn't hold back any longer.

"That guy is so annoying! He smashed the doctor's door! I'm gonna send him flying!"

With that, Luffy took a big stride toward the exit.

*WHAM!*

Nami's fist crashed onto his head.

Luffy instantly clutched his head in pain. "Ow! Why'd you hit me?!"

"Are you an idiot?! Look at your hands and feet! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!"

Nami roared at him.

Only after hearing that did Luffy finally notice the severe pain radiating from his swollen, exposed bones.

"Ahhh! It hurts! It hurts so much! Why didn't I notice before?! Dr. Vir, help me! I'm dying!"

Luffy whined while hobbling toward Vir, hoping to get treated so he could go punch that obnoxious guy outside.

*Crunch! Crunch!*

A gnawing sound came from the entrance.

Wapol's massive head had already appeared in the doorway, his mouth chomping away.

Before long, he had eaten through the entire wall.

Seeing this, Luffy launched a Gomu Gomu no Pistol directly at Wapol.

"How dare you eat the doctor's wall!"

His fist struck Wapol's gut straight on.

But immediately, an intense pain shot through his hand.

The searing agony made him cry out, and he withdrew his already swollen fist, now even more engorged.

"Keep pushing it, and you'll cripple your hand."

Vir finally spoke up.

This guy… Luffy was being reckless as usual. With such severe injuries, he still had the nerve to throw a punch.

"What?! Then what do we do?! He's eating your house, Doc!"

Meanwhile, Wapol was still gnawing away, chomping and chomping like some ravenous beast that hadn't eaten in centuries.

"Chopper! Stall him for a bit! I'll be there soon!"

As soon as Vir gave the order, Chopper transformed into his Walk Point form and charged at Wapol without hesitation.

Vir didn't waste any more time either. He took out the bottle of bruise ointment.

'Bruise Ointment'

Price: 500.

Effect: Heals all blunt-force injuries. (Side effect: Makes the user hideously ugly for one full day.)

500 Points!

That was 500 Points!

Vir felt his heart ache at the cost, but given the situation, he had no choice.

The medicine for Luffy's injuries was even more expensive. He couldn't afford it.

Without hesitation, Vir grabbed his medical kit and kicked Sanji, who was just standing there watching the show, knocking him to the ground.

"Stay still! I'm treating your back injury!"

As he opened the medical kit, Sanji, though momentarily annoyed, quickly realized the urgency of the situation.

From his perspective, if Vir had chosen to heal him first, it meant he was their only hope right now.

Without another word, Sanji lifted his shirt, revealing a massive, dark purple bruise on his lower back.

Vir uncapped the bottle of bruise ointment.

The moment he did, Sanji's expression changed dramatically.

His eyes filled with sheer terror.

Because what Vir had just taken out looked like a bottle of spoiled vegetable soup.

Inside, a few wilted leaves floated ominously in a murky, foul-smelling liquid.

The moment the bottle was opened, an indescribable stench filled the air.

As a chef, Sanji had seen—and smelled—a lot of things.

But this?

"*BLEGH!* *GAG!* *COUGH COUGH!* *BLEGH!*"

The stench was worse than a decade-old pile of unwashed socks and underwear.

He dry-heaved on the spot, unable to contain himself.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have earned 200 negative points.]

Huh? What happened?

Was Sanji afraid of medicine?

Or was he just scared of the pain?

Vir was confused, but he didn't slow down. Time was running out—Chopper was already fighting Wapol.

Without hesitation, he poured the entire bottle of bruise ointment onto Sanji's back.

Then, he began massaging the area to help the medicine absorb.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have earned 500 negative points.]

What?! He already made back his money?

What was going on?!

Vir was stunned.

Meanwhile, Sanji, watching Vir rub that foul-smelling liquid all over his back, seeing the strange, floating vegetable bits shifting under his touch—

He lost it.

He gagged violently, unable to hold it in any longer.

But from Vir's perspective, Sanji's massive bruise was healing rapidly.

At this rate, he would be fully recovered in no time.

However, Vir's expression turned increasingly strange.

Because at that moment…

Sanji's face was starting to morph into an indescribable shape.
