Chapter 418: The Doctor

Chapter 418: The Doctor

As he climbs, Leo finds a problem, his body temperature is melting the ice and snow around him. His grip becomes slippery and he almost falls from the cliff. It's very dangerous because now he is carrying his sister.

But Leo isn't that stupid, so he finds a way immediately. He takes out his blades and uses them as climbing tools. He stabs his blades into the cliff, so he won't lose his grip anymore. His speed also increases while the risk of falling decreases.

Leo reaches the top quite fast and sees an old castle there. He walks toward the castle while sheathing his blades. The snow around him melts because he creates flames around his feet to keep the temperature high enough for his sister but not burn her.

"Excuse me? Doctor, I need your help," shouts Leo after entering the opened gate.

No one answers him even after he shouts a few more times. So he enters the castle while calling the doctor, but there's still no answer. Then he finds a room and enters it even though he thinks it's not polite. His sister needs a warm place, so he ignores that unpoliteness.

Leo puts Nami on the bed and covers her with a blanket. Then he goes around to find the doctor, but there is no one in the castle. He knows someone lives here because this place is in a good condition, so he assumes the doctor is away right now.

"Damn, maybe the doctor is in the village right now. I can't leave my sister alone, so let's just wait here. Hopefully, the doctor will return soon," says Leo while grabbing some snow.

Leo puts the snow in a bowl then he takes it to the room where Nami sleeps. He puts some snow in a small plastic bag and puts it on Nami's forehead to cool her fever. But he also keeps her body warm with a blanket and he turns his hand into a fire.

"Fever is really confusing. People are hot, but they need warmth at the same time. Hmm, I wonder how it actually feels to have a fever," says Leo curiously.

Strangely, Leo never had a fever even once since he was born. Maybe it's because of his good genetics from his father. But some people said it's because he is an idiot. Leo's brain is not as smart as Buggy, but he is still a genius in things like music and battle.

Well, Buggy had a fever once in the past which made him fail to reach Laugh Tale, but that also made the current him. In the past, he thought he was transported to Buggy's body. But now he thinks that he is the real Buggy who remembered his past life.

That might sound unimportant, but that made Buggy feel very relieved because that means he didn't kill the old Buggy, he just remembered who he was. He was burdened by guilt before, but that has disappeared now, and that allowed him to grow even further even after being such a monster.

Anyway, Leo is an idiot in a sense, but he is also a genius. Luffy, Sanji, Zoro, and Usop, the other boys are also like that. So they are actually similar and it might be the reason why they become close real quick.

Leo keeps taking care of his sister while waiting for the doctor. Meanwhile, his crewmates are searching for the doctor in the village, but they haven't found her. Luffy and Sanji who were chasing Leo are in trouble now.

The 2 of them are blocked by some giant fat rabbits that stand on 2 feet. Leo also met them, but he got past them by shooting himself forward with his fire rocket technique. He tried to use it to climb the super steep mountain, but he couldn't because he still can't use his fire to fly.

Leo's mastery over his devil fruit is still not high enough. Well, it's not bad actually, but he still lacks power and energy. If he gets stronger, he may be able to fly like Ironman using his fire ability, which will be very cool. N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.

Anyway, Luffy and Sanji are stopped by the giant rabbit called Lapan. Other than those things, there is an avalanche too. Luckily, they don't bring Nami, so they can face the Lapan and avalanche calmly without any worries.

Leo is still very worried though because Nami doesn't get better at all. He is thinking of burning the small forest near the castle to attract the doctor's attention. But luckily he doesn't need to do that because the doctor finally returns.

The doctor is an old woman who rides a cart pulled by a reindeer. Surprisingly, Robin also comes with them, so Leo assumes that Robin found the doctor and told her about Nami. Leo immediately goes out and calls the doctor to treat his sister ASAP.

Nami who has woken up says, "He has done this since we were kids. We were often punished by our mother to stand outside for hours after doing some naughty things. Leo then developed an ability to sleep while standing because of that."

"What a strange ability to have," says Kureha while checking Nami's body temperature just by touching her forehead.

Sometime later, Leo finally wakes up, but he doesn't see her sister on the bed. He looks around and sees Luffy outside the castle through the windows. So he peeks out and sees Nami there looking all fine, making him very relieved.

But then he realizes that his crewmates are fighting against some people. Leo rushes outside to see what happens and helps his crewmates. He arrives right on time to catch a strange black ball that almost hits Nami.

"Afro hair?" asks Leo while raising an eyebrow.

Some more afro hair balls fly toward him and sticks on his body. Leo is trying to kbock them off, but he can't, and they suddenly burn when the afro man's partnet shoots a fire arrow. The man gulps his saliva when he sees Leo doesn't get affected by the fire at all.

"You wanna hit my sister with these things then burn them? It seems you are tired of living," says Leo pissedly.

Sanji and Luffy look at the afro man while pretending to pray because he won't last long after angering Leo. There is one thing the crew knows well about Leo, he never tolerated anyone who endangers his family members.

Leo shoots himself forward and reaches the afro man very fast. He grabs the man's face and slams the afro guy onto the ground. Leo's body releases a lot of flames and he melts the snow around them, scaring the afro man greatly.

"Don't even try to hurt my sister," says Leo before punching the afro man's face really hard with a fire fist, knocking the guy out.

Leo then looks at the other enemies and bumps his fists, "You were disturbing my sleep, bastards."
