Chapter 92 west Yan! You didn't use a transformation spell in the bathhouse, did you?!
"I don't care if she's the real person or not, I'll be satisfied as long as she can be resurrected," Hogback said, panting heavily.
Does it really matter whether the other person is the real person or not?
He was perfectly content as long as this person was by his side.
west Yan nodded in response, without saying anything more.
He discovered that this guy named Hogback might be somewhat obsessed.
Perhaps the other person did join Moriah's faction from the beginning because of what he said, but... so much time has passed, it's hard to guarantee that their mindset won't change.
Just like now, he wouldn't hesitate even if his fiancée turned into a zombie.
Although I don't understand, I respect it.
"I'm sorry," Hogback said, leaning on the table as he sat down again. "I hope you'll forgive my poor appearance."
"It's okay, I understand," Nami nodded.
She knew all too well what it felt like to lose a loved one.
Mary blinked, thought for a moment, and said, "Do those who have passed away really want to be resurrected as zombies?"
Upon hearing this, the group froze on the spot.
Yes, would the other party really be willing?
To exist in this inhuman, ghostly state...
west Yan glanced at Mei Li in surprise; he hadn't expected her to say something like that.
"Thinking about it carefully, the life and death of the zombies are also in Moria's hands," west Yan said.
Hogback took a deep breath and then said, "Yes, that's why I can't leave here."
"So I'm sorry, Dr. Chopper..."
Chopper pursed his lips, unsure of what to say for a moment.
The fact that the other party helped Moria modify his body was a complete challenge to his medical ethics.
After the other party explained, Chopper understood that he had his reasons, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Finally, Chopper sighed and said, "Xiyan, let's go."
Although the other party had their reasons, he still couldn't accept his idol doing such a thing, so he decided to avoid seeing it and getting upset.
"Gentlemen, if you're willing to trust me, please don't leave now," Hogback said. "Why?"
"Because it's already night, a large number of terrifying zombie rulers with extremely powerful strength will appear on this island."
"Then... could you please ask Dr. Hogback to take us to the beach?" Nami said. "You should be able to command those zombies, right?"
Now that we've seen them, there's no need to stay here any longer. Let's go back and find Luffy and the others.
Ultimately, this is also the enemy's headquarters.
"I'm sorry, I can't do that."
"Can't do it?"
"Yes," Hogback explained, "They are all under Moria's control; I have no authority to command them."
He was telling the truth; he didn't have as many zombies on the island as he had imagined.
Most of the zombies still obey Absalom's orders; he is Moria's handpicked zombie commander.
Just then, Cindy came over again and said, "Gentlemen, the bathwater is ready."
"Yes, yes, you guys go take a hot shower first," Hogback laughed. "After you're done, take a nap."
"It's fine to leave first thing tomorrow morning."
"The zombies will all go back then."
Cindy, well done!
No matter what, these people have to stay here!
"Let's skip the bath and stuff..." Usopp said.
"No!"
Why?
"You're very dirty right now," Cindy said coldly. "You'll get the mattress dirty!"
Usopp: ...
Usopp glanced down at himself and his lips twitched; he was indeed a bit dirty.
They had been chased all the way because of the three-headed dog, and only managed to escape by climbing a tree, but they ended up getting very dirty.
In addition, the zombies they encountered later left them covered in...:
All I can say is that it's ridiculously dirty!
"But the problem is, we are now..."
Before Chopper could finish speaking, Nami interrupted him, saying, "You need to wash!"
"Huh?!"
Chopper stared at Nami in shock. Was this the time to be so clean?
"Please consider the two of us girls~" Nami stuck out her tongue and said, "Okay, Xiyan?"
She really wanted to take Mary to have a good bath right now.
"Yes, that's fine."
"Huh?!?!"
Usopp and Chopper stared at Xiyan in shock. The other party had actually agreed?
"Hehe, didn't Dr. Hogback say that nighttime is very dangerous?" west Yan said with a chuckle. "Then why don't we rest here for a while?"
"Yes, yes, you guys go take a shower." Hogback stood up and said, "It's inside, just walk down the corridor. Do you need Sindori to take you?"
"No need, we can go ourselves."
"Alright, please make yourselves at home~" Hogback deliberately stretched and said, "I'll go rest for a while first."
"After you've finished washing, Cindy will take you to your room."
"OK."
"Please...please wait a minute!" Usopp suddenly said, "Aren't you going to tell Moria what happened between us?"
"Don't worry, I won't do that," Hogback said. "I get along very well with you all, so naturally I won't let you get into danger."
Although the other party is not afraid of Lord Moria, it's still... not enough to warrant Lord Moria personally taking action.
Letting the zombies handle it is perfectly sufficient!
After all, Ryoma is right here with him!
"Really? Thank you."
"It's nothing, don't be so polite," Hogback said with a smile.
Then, swaying his chubby body, he left with a smile.
After watching Hogback leave, the group turned their attention to west Yan.
"west Yan..."
"Let's go, didn't you want to take a shower?"
Mei Li was stunned for a moment. Really washing it?
"Hey, Xiyan, you're the best~" Nami chuckled and led Meili towards the distant corridor, soon arriving at a huge bathhouse.
After opening the door and peeking inside, Nami smiled and said, "It looks pretty good~"
As he spoke, he was about to take Meili inside, but Xiyan stopped him.
"west Yan?"
"Let me take a look first."
west Yan activated his Sharingan, glanced inside, and, finding nothing unusual, came out.
"What's wrong?" Nami looked at Xiyan in confusion, not knowing what she meant.
Suddenly, an idea popped into her mind.
"west Yan!" Nami said, hands on her hips, looking at west Yan. "You didn't use a transformation technique, did you?"
She remembered west Yan's transformation technique, which allowed him to transform into anything!
west Yan was stunned for a moment, then complained, "Don't think of me as that lecherous chef, okay?"
"So what are you doing?"
"There's an invisible man on this island who can completely turn himself invisibly," west Yan explained. "He ambushed us on the ship."
Upon hearing this, Nami's expression immediately changed.
Invisible man?
Wouldn't that be... a huge pervert?!
"So, you didn't catch him?" Nami asked nervously.
"Yes." west Yan nodded and said, "Although he was knocked down by Sanji's kick, there's no guarantee he won't reappear."
Since he couldn't find that guy in the past, his location couldn't be determined.
Who knows if this invisible man will come to spy on us? So he has to take a closer look.
"I don't want to wash anymore..."
"It's alright, there's no one inside," west Yan said. "As long as you're sure no one can get in through the window, it's fine."
As he spoke, west Yan went inside and closed the windows tightly.
Seeing west Yan come out again, Nami asked, "Are you really sure no one's left?"
"there is none left."
"Alright."
Nami breathed a sigh of relief and said to Merry, "Let's go inside."
After closing the door, Nami said, "Xiyan, Usopp, Chopper, I'll have to trouble the three of you to keep watch for us."
The windows are now closed. As long as we confirm the front door is safe, there's absolutely no problem. "Ah, I understand."
"Speaking of which... Xiyan," Usopp glanced at Xiyan and said, "what was Sanji's reaction when he discovered that invisible man?"
"I remember his dream was to eat the Clear-Clear Fruit."
Sanji was very excited when he said that, and even after Nami beat him up, he didn't change his mind.
"Him...."
Recalling Sanji's appearance, west Yan's lips twitched and he said, "Yeah, like a salted fish that has lost its dreams."
They looked so devastated back then, just like Luffy and his crew when they were touched by negative spirits.
Usopp thought about it seriously for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's pretty bad."
However, Xiyan said that Sanji later beat that guy up, which was probably an attack fueled by anger.
I just don't know if it's burning yet.
"Saiyan..." Chopper suddenly looked up and said, "If we defeat Moria, will Hogback's fiancée die too?"
"Yes."
"Is that...?"
"Is it a bit cruel?"
Chopper didn't speak, but simply nodded with his lips pursed.
The other party willingly became Moria's henchman, wasn't it all for the sake of resurrecting his fiancée?
And now, the other party's fiancée is about to die because of them...
west Yan sighed; the little guy's kindness was truly beyond his imagination.
He clearly didn't like what Hogback was doing...
It seems that Chopper still hasn't shaken off the "world's best doctor" filter on Hogback.
Thinking of this, west Yan said, "Before considering this matter, let me ask you a question: Do you think Hogback is trustworthy?"
"Huh?!"
"Is it unbelievable?"
The two stared at west Yan in disbelief; they now completely trusted Hogback.
Although the two sides are on opposing sides, the other side seems to be a decent person.
west Yan:
west Yan covered his face, momentarily at a loss for words.
"What's wrong?"
"The intelligence I just received included information about him leading zombies on his mission," west Yan said.
"That doesn't necessarily mean he wanted to," Chopper said after a moment's thought. "Was it Moria who ordered the zombies to stay with Dr. Hogback?"
Chopper actually found it quite reasonable for an ordinary person to have bodyguards in such a dangerous place.
"Well, I can't rule out the possibility you mentioned."
Looking at west Yan's expression, Usopp chuckled and said, "What he just said didn't seem like a lie."
"What he said does sound true, but we can't judge the truth of things just by appearances."
"Huh?!"
Why?
"Because some lies sound very real," west Yan explained. "Mixing a few lies with a lot of truth not only makes it more credible, but it can also change the meaning of things."
After saying that, west Yan paused for a moment, then continued, "Some people even change the order of their words to deceive others."
Perhaps Hogback's story is true, but the other person's initial expression seemed somewhat unnatural, which is clearly problematic.
Unless the other person is extremely socially anxious, they won't have that unnatural reaction.
But...: Would someone with social anxiety so naturally invite them into the room?
"Is that so...."
'
Chopper was a little dumbfounded, while Usopp next to him had a thoughtful expression, as if new knowledge was entering his mind.
"And...you've overlooked one issue," west Yan said.
"What's the problem?"
"He belongs to Moria's faction!"
"We know."
"No, you don't know," west Yan said seriously, "or rather, you haven't taken this factor seriously."
The two looked at each other, unable to understand west Yan's question for a moment.
"The difference in status is a very important factor," west Yan said, holding up one finger. "Do you think he would fight against Moria for us?"
"Can't he?" Chopper blinked and said, "He just said he wouldn't tell Moria about us."
The fact that the other side hid them was essentially a countermeasure against Moria, ensuring their shadows wouldn't be stolen.
"How naive..." Xi Yan said helplessly, "Don't forget, we're still strangers to Hogback. Even if we've gotten a little closer to him because of Chopper, it doesn't change the fact that this is our first meeting!"
Would the other side fight Moria for a group of strangers like them?
west Yan wasn't that naive, especially since the other party was originally one of Moria's people.
"Also, don't forget, from the moment we opened the Flowing Bottle, Moria has already been watching us." west Yan said seriously, "The shadow of a strong person has a great attraction for Moria, and I don't think he will let us go."
"Do you think, under these circumstances, Hogback would still fight Moria for us?"
"Even simply hiding us means betrayal to Moria!"
"And Moria holds Hogback's fiancée's life in his hands; you should know what that means."
Chopper fell silent, having understood what Bai Xiyan meant.
But it is precisely because I understood that I felt somewhat sad.
"So, he was just lying to us?" Usopp asked, his eyes wide.
"At least I don't think he'd willingly help us deceive Moria," west Yan said, glancing at the end of the corridor. "Judging from his behavior, there's a very high probability that something's wrong with him."
"And... what he just said sounded like he wanted to keep us here."
Hogback's meaning was clear: he wanted them to stay.
After all... the idea that zombies only appear in the middle of the night sounds a bit far-fetched.
You should know that this is the Devil's Triangle, a place where the sun never shines all year round. Is there any difference between day and night?
"So what you just did...:::"
Why didn't I take immediate action?
Usopp didn't say anything, but his expression conveyed the same meaning.
west Yan smiled, looked down at Chopper, and said, "Chopper, after hearing Hogback's explanations, what would you do if I attacked him directly?"
Chopper thought for a moment and said, "I should...stop you."
Although the other party's modification of the corpse was despicable, it was because of his own reasons, so Chopper still viewed Hogback with a biased perspective.
If west Yan were to make a move, Chopper would actually speak up to stop him.
west Yan shrugged at Usopp, as if to say, "You get it."
"So...you're doing this so we can see the truth?"
Usopp immediately understood west Yan's thoughts. If he were to take direct action, it would be very cruel to Chopper.
After all... in his eyes, Hogback was an idol!
west Yan is surprisingly gentle.
"Pretty much." west Yan nodded and said, "The most important thing is......it's really bothering me that my friends trust others so easily."
"We won't always be there for you."
At this point, west Yan sighed silently.
These four idiots...::
Although Luffy is a bit slow, at least he has the strength to back it up. Even if he gets tricked, it won't be too bad.
But these four guys are different. Not only do they lack strength, they are also easily deceived, which is a real headache.
Inside the bathroom, Nami and Merry looked embarrassed as they listened to west Yan's words, and subconsciously submerged themselves in the water, leaving only their noses and above exposed.
The two looked at each other and smiled sheepishly.
"Aren't you afraid of making a wrong judgment?" Usopp suddenly asked.
"I didn't do anything, did I?" west Yan said, spreading his hands. "Out of respect for Chopper, I didn't even use my hypnotic abilities."
"In the end, I was just telling you all the possibilities."
"Don't forget, we're now on the territory of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. There are some things we have to be wary of."
After saying that, west Yan glanced at the bathroom door and said, "Why did you two suddenly stop moving?"
?
There was the sound of water just now, but now there's no sound at all?
"Don't worry, we're fine."
"Well, it's good that you're alright." After saying that, Xi Yan looked down at the silent Chopper and said, "Chopper, if my judgment was wrong, I will apologize."
However, the probability is not as high as one might imagine.
west Yan preferred to trust his own judgment and intuition; this Hogback was most likely problematic.
"Um..
Chopper nodded. He now understood west Yan's good intentions, which moved him deeply.
"west Yan..."
"Um?"
"If he dares to lie to us..." Chopper suddenly looked up at Xiyan and said, "I'll kill him myself!"
If the other party deceived him, it would mean that Hogback was a heinous villain and not a respectable doctor at all!
Then he will withdraw his worship and stop holding back!
Seeing Chopper's serious expression, west Yan smiled and said, "Okay."
"Dr. Chopper!"
