Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

Chopper: "..."

Both explanations left him speechless, and couldn't they just stop using the word "raccoon dog" altogether?

I'm so angry!

"Chopper ate the Human-Human Fruit, which is why he calls himself a monster..."

Kureha offered an explanation.

Then, she said to the shrunken Chopper, "Chopper, Dr. Kureha is telling you, these people are monsters too, and even more monsters than you!"

"Don't think you're anything special; there are plenty of monsters in this ocean."

Compared to them, well... you're barely more like a little pet, right? A really cute one at that...

It seems Kureha really doesn't know how to take care of children; that analogy is just too apt...

"More monstrous than me?"

But Chopper clearly listened.

He glanced suspiciously at the others, muttering to himself, "They're just ordinary people, aren't they? They don't seem like monsters at all..."

He is the monster who is disliked by others.

The reindeer herd didn't like him, and neither did the humans.

He was just a monster that resembled neither a human nor a reindeer...

"Oh? You think I'm like an ordinary human being?"

Rocks had somehow activated the third stage of Hollowfication, a sinister smile playing on his lips, revealing sharp, cleavage: "Are you sure?"

At this moment, Rocks' skin turned pale, his black hair grew longer, and his fingers became like claws...

Furthermore, long horns, wings, and a tail formed from dark green energy appeared on its body.

It made him look like a demon, sinister and evil...

Although he had concealed most of his aura.

But the aura of brutality, rage, and evil that it exudes inexplicably evokes a sense of fear in those who sense it...

This doesn't look like a normal human being at all.

It was a demon!

And they are extremely evil and terrifying demons!

"Aaaaaah, a monster...a monster!"

As a beast who ate the Human-Human Fruit, Chopper may not have Observation Haki, but his innate wild instincts give him a unique ability to judge danger.

Sensing the faint trace of Lox's aura...

Chopper seemed to see a bloodthirsty, tyrannical monster baring its fangs at him.

It's as if they want to skin him alive, eat his flesh, suck his blood, and even tear his soul apart and devour it...

"Ho ho..."

It seemed the "stimulation" was too much for Chopper, as he let out a low whimper and trembled all over, as if he would faint at any moment...

What is this?

How could such a terrifying monster exist?

Doctor Doriel was right; compared to this monster, she really was just a little pet...

The two are not even on the same level.

One is just a monster in appearance, while the other is a monster in both appearance and inner qualities!

Nami was used to Rocks' "devilish" appearance. Seeing that Chopper was about to faint, she quickly reminded him, "Little Rocks, don't scare the little raccoon!"

"Damn it! I already told you I'm a reindeer!"

Once again provoked by the word "tanuki," Chopper even briefly forgot his fear of "demon monsters."

Baring its fangs, it roared at Nami: "It's not a tanuki, it's a reindeer, a reindeer, a reindeer! Remember that!"

Nami exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? You've recovered?"

"Your name is Chopper, right?"

Rocks has returned to his original form.

It was as if what just happened was an illusion.

Rocks crouched down and smiled at Chopper: "There are quite a few people in this world who call me a monster, but they all do so out of fear and apprehension."

"The word 'monster' is not derogatory in this world; on the contrary, it is a form of recognition from others."

"Don't feel guilty about this word. It's out of fear and dread that they call someone a monster."

“A monster that is extremely powerful can also be called a god. Others see me as a monster, but I see myself as a god, a ‘god of the new era’!”

"You can do it too!"

"You could be the reindeer god, or the forest god who embodies nature. And come to think of it, the forest god is also a deer, isn't he?"

Rocks patted Chopper's little shoulder and said earnestly, "Anyway, don't think that the word 'monster' is unpopular; on the contrary, it's very popular..."

"If anyone dares to say you're not human, just slap them until they 'become human.'"

"Then you, this 'monster,' can beat the 'human,' because the 'human' can't beat the 'monster'!"

Even those who have been "dominated by darkness" can be woken up with a slap.

If Chopper's "behave like a human being" ability is developed properly, it could very well become a powerful technique.

Devil Fruit users and cyborgs, I'll slap them all down and turn them into "ordinary humans"!

Just ask if you are afraid of it!

"Don't brainwash my child!"

Kureha's face darkened, and she roared at Rocks, "Calling yourself a god is too outrageous for Chopper!"

"The Human-Human Fruit in human form cannot make others 'like a person'!"

“You don’t understand, Ms. Kureha.”

Rocks, however, had a different opinion, and slowly said, "Before awakening, the Human-Human Fruit in Human form can only make oneself 'like a human,' but after awakening, it may not be unable to make others 'like a human.'"

What is the definition of an ordinary human being?

"They can't even beat wild beasts and ferocious beasts! If only we could turn a strong person into an 'ordinary human.'"

"Don't you think this is a terrifying ability?"

Even the Door-Door Fruit can be associated with the Eight Gates Formation.

If the Human-Human Fruit's ability to make people "more like people" is developed properly, it's not impossible to achieve this, right?

Thinking about it this way, there's definitely a lot of potential!

Who said that the "Everyone's Fruit - Common People's Form" is garbage?

Anyway, Rocks never said that!

Kuina glanced at Chopper and said with a wry smile, "So... Chopper is the unlucky guy I mentioned before who would gain the ability to 'not swim' if he ate him?"

Rocks seemed to have mentioned the Human-Human Fruit and Human Form to them before?

She also said that whoever ate the fruit was an unlucky person.

And now she's actually run into him?

"Huh? Rocks seems to have mentioned the Human-Human Fruit, Human Form, a Devil Fruit."

Nami belatedly realized: "So it really existed! And it was eaten by the little tanuki?"

Robin also remembered: "Animals turn into humans after eating it, so that's how it is..."

She found Lox increasingly mysterious.

Did Rocks already know about Chopper, the reindeer who ate the Human-Human Fruit and took human form?

Chopper: "..."

He felt utterly humiliated.

What does it mean to be an unlucky person who gains the ability to "not swim" after eating something?

Perhaps this is true for humans.

But he's a reindeer. Reindeer that eat the Human-Human Fruit can transform into humans.

amount……

It doesn't seem to be much better, does it?

For some reason, Chopper became somewhat withdrawn...

These humans are so mean, waaaaah...

It seems we need to speed up the development of the Rumble Ball, otherwise it really will just be a reindeer that "cannot swim"...

Chapter 165: Trying to Take the Rumble Ball! The Effects of the Rumble Ball!

Knowing that the Blackwing Demon Pirates wouldn't stay here for long, Kureha arranged a two-week fixed-point training program for Illya.

It was supposed to be training.

In reality, it's just about passing on some medical practice guidelines and experience to Xiao Yi.

Most importantly, it's about knowledge related to "surgery".

The unique nature of the Medicine-Medicine Fruit user means that Xiao Yi doesn't need to train in medical skills like a regular doctor.

With detailed medical books, Xiao Yi can "prescribe the right medicine for the right symptoms".

It's true that users of the Drug-Drug Fruit are natural-born doctors, but their abilities are limited to using medicine.

Medication alone cannot address all illnesses; some require surgery.
