If people in this world heard about the Whitebeard Pirates, they would probably be very surprised, but Orochimaru had no idea what they were, and even if he did, he wouldn't care, so he just smiled slightly at Whitebeard.
It was precisely his composure that made Whitebeard take him more seriously.
After exchanging greetings, Lin Xuan asked Orochimaru directly, "You said you noticed something wrong with Whitebeard's body. Are you confident you can cure him?"
Orochimaru said, "We'll only know the specifics after we examine them."
Lin Xuan couldn't help but look at the white-bearded man and ask, "What do you think, Lord Whitebeard?"
Marco nervously called out to Whitebeard, "Dad!"
In fact, Whitebeard's first thought was to refuse, because he knew his own physical condition. The ship's doctor was helpless, and he himself was suffering from constant pain. He couldn't even drink much alcohol, which was too uncomfortable, and he wanted to give up.
However, considering that they were about to go to war with the World Government, and that the Ninja Guild had shown many unexpected methods, Whitebeard couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
Perhaps Orochimaru from the Ninja Guild's medical department really has some miraculous methods to cure him!
He had actually become indifferent to life and death, but in order to be more certain of rescuing Ace and for his many children to continue to live freely on the sea, he finally agreed and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Doctor Orochimaru!"
Marco smiled when he saw that Marco had agreed.
"A doctor?"
Orochimaru chuckled upon hearing this title, saying, "Actually, I prefer to be called a scientist!"
Clearly, he only learned the title "scientist" after coming into this world, and he felt it was the most fitting description of himself, so he immediately took a liking to it.
Afterwards, Lin Xuan, Whitebeard, and Marco followed Orochimaru to the Medical Research Department.
On the way, Lin Xuan handed the Devil Fruit that Whitebeard had just given him to Orochimaru, saying, "This is a Devil Fruit sent by Lord Whitebeard. Take a good look at it!"
"no problem!"
Orochimaru excitedly accepted it, even licking his lips with his long tongue, looking utterly sinister...
However, Whitebeard was not surprised at all when he saw this scene.
Indeed, in the world of One Piece, scientists and the like are often seen as rather strange, and even those who aren't scientists are often quite odd. Whitebeard probably saw so many that he was no longer surprised.
Upon arriving at the Medical Research Department, one could see that many things here were brand new and were still being improved, and there were only a few people around.
Marco, who had followed Whitebeard, couldn't help but doubt the capabilities of the Ninja Guild's medical department upon seeing this scene.
After they arrived, Orochimaru did not rush to examine Whitebeard, but instead took Lin Xuan and the others to see a patient first.
This is currently the only patient in the entire medical research department.
When Marco saw him, his pupils immediately contracted: "Bartholomew Kuma?!"
Whitebeard also looked surprised.
They never expected that Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, would be in the Ninja Guild, let alone that Bartholomew Kuma was in such a miserable state!
At this moment, Bartholomew Bear, standing before them, had most of his body tattered, but strangely, what was exposed was not flesh and blood, but some mechanical or electrical components.
This was truly unexpected for them.
Even the white-bearded man couldn't help but look at Lin Xuan, casting an inquiring glance at him.
Lin Xuan said, "Don't misunderstand, his condition wasn't caused by us, but by the World Government! I don't know what agreement he reached with the World Government, but they actually did so many modifications to him that he's almost unrecognizable as human! He was captured by us during the war, so we just took the opportunity to check on his condition."
Orochimaru, standing to the side, scoffed, saying, "I don't know who did this kind of modification, but it's made a living being almost lose all its life characteristics. It's utter garbage!"
Lin Xuan then asked, "You've already examined him, right? Are you confident you can cure him?"
Whitebeard and Marco both turned to look at Orochimaru.
Chapter 197 Marco: Orochimaru is a pervert!
The treatment of Bartholomew Kuma was actually one of the deals made between Revolutionary Army leader Monkey D. Dragon and Lin Xuan.
In fact, Bartholomew Kumamoto was one of the Revolutionary Army's officers, and Monkey D. Dragon's last visit to the Sabaody Archipelago was largely because of Kuma.
Because he learned that after the Sabaody Archipelago War, apart from Empress Hancock, who was close to Lin Xuan and his group, most of the other Shichibukai took the opportunity to escape, and only Bartholomew Kuma was captured by Lin Xuan and his group!
However, after arriving at the Sabaody Archipelago and learning about Bartholomew Kuma's condition, he ultimately did not take him away, but instead asked Lin Xuan and the others to help him with treatment.
After all, their revolutionary army couldn't help Bartholomew Kuma at all.
Lin Xuan had the idea of setting up a medical department before Orochimaru arrived, so he agreed to the request.
Now that Orochimaru has arrived, this task naturally falls to him.
These past few days, Orochimaru has been busy with the establishment of the Medical Research Department, as well as researching Devil Fruits or Bartholomew Kuma.
Upon hearing Lin Xuan's question, Orochimaru replied, "It's unlikely that we can completely restore him to his original state. However, removing the 'garbage modifications' from his body, restoring his vital signs, and even further enhancing his strength is no problem at all!"
Hearing this, Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll leave this matter to you!"
"No problem!" Orochimaru nodded in agreement.
Whitebeard and Marco listened to the conversation between the two, and seeing that Orochimaru was confident he could heal Bartholomew Kuma, they became even more confident that Orochimaru could cure Whitebeard.
After examining Bartholomew Kuma's condition, Orochimaru officially began a comprehensive examination of Whitebeard!
There were quite a few strange remarks during that time.
"What a peculiar body structure!"
"Tsk tsk, this test subject is really interesting!"
"I never imagined that people in this world are physically structured like this!"
"Interesting, it would be great if we could cut it open and take a look!"
……
Such words, coupled with his occasional licking of his lips with his long tongue and the look in his eyes that resembled a venomous snake eyeing its prey, sent chills down Marco's spine.
Marco strongly suspected that this guy named Orochimaru wasn't a doctor at all, but some kind of perverted scientist. He almost couldn't resist stopping Orochimaru and taking Whitebeard away!
In fact, Marco was right; Orochimaru was indeed a perverted scientist!
Whitebeard himself, on the other hand, seemed completely unconcerned and couldn't help but let out a "Gurarararar" laugh, praising Orochimaru and saying, "You little guy are really interesting!"
……
The first half of the Grand Line is the Calm Belt.
Here lies Impel Down, the world's largest underwater prison.
Security here is extremely tight, and it houses only serious criminals. The place is very eerie and terrifying, with various monster guards and video Den Den Mushi (snail phones) monitoring the area.
Outside the prison, on the seabed, there are a large number of large sea kings, which is why Impel Down is known as an impregnable fortress.
At this moment, a ship quietly appeared near the Gate of Justice.
There were several figures on the ship: Minato Namikaze, Rin Nohara, Obito Uchiha, and the brothers Sabo and Luffy.
Looking at the Gate of Justice not far away, Sabo couldn't help but sigh softly.
To enter Impel Down, you must pass through the Gates of Justice.
Sabo and Luffy were previously stopped outside the Gate of Justice, and their whereabouts were eventually discovered by the Navy, leaving them with no choice but to flee in panic.
"This time, we must break in and rescue Ace!" Luffy slapped his fist and said with great enthusiasm.
Sabo then turned his gaze to Minato and the others, and said, "I'm counting on you!"
He was actually very curious about how Minato Namikaze and the others were going to help them get into Impel Down.
Should we force our way in?
However, the defenses here are very tight, and there is also the Gate of Justice blocking the way.
It would be almost impossible to force your way in, otherwise he and Luffy wouldn't have been so badly injured last time.
Even if the Ninja Guild members are very strong, it would be difficult for them to just break in, right?
Minato Namikaze nodded, his gaze shifting to Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara, a hint of emotion creeping into his eyes.
"I never thought we'd be able to work together on a mission again. It really brings back memories!" Minato Namikaze said with a smile.
"Yeah, it's been so long since we've done anything together. It's a shame Kakashi isn't here, otherwise it would have been perfect!" Nohara Rin said with a nostalgic smile.
Obito Uchiha had mixed feelings, but he was also very moved.
Despite all the mistakes he made, neither his teacher, Rin, nor even Kakashi from another world blamed him.
Minato Namikaze reached out and patted his two disciples' hair, saying with a smile, "In that case, let's do our best together, including Kakashi's share!"
"Yes, Minato-sensei!" The two nodded with smiles.
On the way here, Minato Namikaze learned about the situation in Impel Down from Sabo and then made a simple plan.
Now, all that's needed is to proceed according to plan.
If I were alone on this mission, it might not have been so easy to complete.
However, now with the help of the 120 soil, everything has become much simpler.
The Flying Thunder God Technique relies on this technique to perform spatial jumps, so it would be difficult for Minato Namikaze to cross the Gate of Justice.
However, Obito Uchiha was different. With Kamui, it would be too easy for him to pass through the Gate of Justice and enter Impel Down.
