One Piece: The Cryo Doctor on the Straw Hat Ship

Alarm bells rang in Ah Long's mind; his biological instincts told him he was under deadly threat.

He tried to twist and dodge, but it was too late!

The two fighter jets hovered in front of Nami, and beneath their bellies, two Gatling-style rotating gun barrels, flashing with dangerous red light, extended out, locking onto Arlong, who was standing almost within reach.

next second...

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang-! ! ! ! !

The deafening explosion sounded like the sudden drumbeat of death!

Countless specially designed explosive rounds were ejected from the rotating barrel, instantly forming a scorching, dense, and absolutely destructive metal storm!

The bullet struck his proud, hardened scales and skin, but instead of penetrating deeper, it triggered a miniature explosive mechanism inside.

Each hit will trigger a small-scale, violent explosion!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom—!!!

A series of explosions erupted on Ah Long's body, instantly filling the air with the smell of burning and gunpowder.

The aroma of grilled fish!

Luffy twitched his nose, sniffed, and instantly drooled.

"A true expert!" V smiled faintly, his eyes reflecting Ah Long's tragic figure.

"Brother Alon!!!" Croobi, Chu, Hachi, and other fish-man executives, struggling to their feet from the ruins, cried out in terror and despair, their eyes wide with fury.

They tried to rush forward, but Zoro and Sanji coldly stopped them.

Sanji lit a cigarette and looked at the fish-men with a heavy gaze.

"This is a crucial moment for Miss Nami's revenge, and I won't let you pass so easily."

Zoro: "Me too."

boom! ! ! !

A bullet suddenly passed between Sanji and Zoro, hitting the fishman executive Chu precisely.

Pfft!

Blood splattered like sharp arrows.

The wounded bird seemed unaware of what had happened. He instinctively clutched his chest, looked at the dripping blood on his hand, his eyes suddenly rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground unconscious.

"Chirp!" Crooby shouted.

His gaze then turned to what was behind Sanji and Zoro.

Suddenly, Usopp appeared on the ruins in the far distance.

Seemingly noticing Croobi's gaze, he twitched his nose slightly and shouted to make his presence known.

"Don't forget, I'm here too!"

"You murlocs, wash your necks clean! Just wait until my 80 million minions raze this place to the ground!!!"

"Hahahaha—"

Amid Usopp's exhilarating laughter, the two combat drones suddenly emitted a clicking sound.

It turned out that all the bullets they were loaded had been fired.

Even so, the flames and smoke from the explosion lasted for several seconds before slowly dissipating.

On the scorched ground, Ah Long's once tall body was now curled up in a ball, his body emitting blue smoke, covered with horrific, deep bullet holes and burns that revealed the bone, with almost no intact skin to be found.

He let out a hissing sound as he tried to lift his head. His once arrogant and tyrannical red eyes were now only filled with disorientation and disbelief.

"Damn...humans..." With his last breath, he spat out a curse mixed with blood and black smoke, his voice weak but still ferocious.

Before he could finish speaking, his broken body lost all support, as if his skeleton had been ripped out, and with a "thud," he fell heavily onto the rubble in front of Nami, stirring up a small cloud of dust, and then fell silent.

The scene was deathly silent.

Chapter 38 This is just the beginning! (Seeking monthly votes!)

"Finally... it's over."

The combat drone traced two elegant arcs in the air and flew precisely back to Nami.

The mechanical structure reassembled and transformed, quickly returning to its original form of a pair of bright silver prosthetic arms.

Nami slowly lowered her arm, her gaze sweeping over everything before her.

The sea breeze swept through the broken walls and ruins, stirring up fine dust and bringing with it the familiar salty scent of distant waves.

She took a deep breath, and the huge rock that had been weighing on her chest for years seemed to be completely shattered at that moment, turning into wisps of smoke and dissipating.

"Nami!"

Just then, a shout filled with anxiety and worry suddenly came from the perimeter of the ruins.

"Nojiko? Ken!?"

"Why are you here?"

Nami looked over upon hearing the sound.

Through the gap in the wall of the Evil Dragon Empire, a large group of figures could be seen rushing in menacingly.

They were dressed in simple village clothes and carried a jumble of tools.

The people in charge were Nami's older sister, Nojiko, and Ken, the sheriff of Cocoyasi Village.

They were clearly drawn here by the earth-shattering noise and the sounds of battle.

However, when they got closer and saw the scene inside the garden, everyone suddenly stopped in their tracks, their faces instantly filled with extreme shock and bewilderment.

"What...what happened?"

"I'll leave the explanation to you, Nami."

"This is a good opportunity for you to say goodbye to your family."

V walked toward the unconscious Ah Long, a faint smile on his face.

Then he said to Zoro and the others, "Zoro, the rest is up to you."

"You all know the rules."

"If all goes well, we won't have to be afraid of the sea anymore!"

Hey~

Zoro hoisted Ashura onto his shoulder, his blood-red eyes sweeping over the remaining fishman officers.

"Don't worry."

V bent down and placed his hands directly on Ah Long's charred body.

The next instant, the two figures disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Brother A-Long!"

Upon seeing this, Xiao Ba immediately shouted loudly.

Clang!

The sharp blade suddenly flashed past their line of sight.

Zoro and Sanji were seen standing on either side of each other, one holding a knife in both hands, the other silently lighting a cigarette.

"Stop shouting," Zoro chuckled. "Your fishman brother..."

"It'll be turned into sashimi soon!"

"What did you say?!" The fishman officers' expressions changed instantly.

What awaits them is a purgatory even more terrifying than the abyss.

……

……

"Damn humans!!!"

"I'm going to kill you all!!!"

The operating room was cold and sterile.

Trapped to the operating chair, Ah Long suddenly stood up and let out a scream filled with terror.

However, the next second...

"You woke up pretty quickly."

"As expected of a fish-man whose base stats are more than ten times that of a human."

A calm, unwavering voice came through, as if stating some professional academic issue.

"You are……"

Upon hearing the sound, Ah Long quickly turned his head and immediately saw a strange man with bright blue eyes standing beside him.

A flicker of reminiscence crossed Ah Long's eyes, but his anger intensified immediately.

"You're the human who was with Nami!!!"

"Damn it!"

Ah Long's voice abruptly stopped.

Just then, the robotic arms suddenly extended from the side of the operating chair and injected four anesthetics into his limbs.

“Congratulations, you got it right.” V continued to smile, “but there’s no prize.”

He walked up to Ah Long and their eyes met.

At the same time, the anesthetic from CyberTech also began to take effect.

Ah Long instantly lost control of his body, but his brain remained clear, and his eyes and mouth could still function normally.

"W-What are you going to do!?"
