I, the great swordsman, am definitely not a bootlicker

Silly Sanji, have you ever heard of a kind of punch that falls from the sky, hehe.

Looking at Sanji, Usopp and Vivi taking the cable car to the castle, Zoro knew what would happen next. He quietly retreated behind the castle gate and greeted them warmly.

"Yo, good morning, Vivi."

"Um, Mr. Swordsman, good... morning." Vivi, with beads of sweat on her head, seemed to have gradually begun to understand Nami's words.

"Hey! Green algae head, do you want to harass Miss Vivi again?" Sanji came up and barked like a dog.

"You want to be the first to come forward? If you have the guts, just stand there and don't move!" Zoro challenged.

"I want to fight..."

"Sanji, Usopp?" Luffy fell from the sky.

Bang Bang!

"Haha! You little bastard, are you going to fight me?" Zoro grinned as he watched Sanji being knocked several meters away by Luffy.

"Are you crazy?" Sanji, who was hit by a heavy hammer, turned into a fishman's mouth.

"No, my clothes looked familiar and I thought they were their accomplices. I didn't expect you to climb up here too." Luffy scratched his head in a simple manner.

Well, regarding the incident where Luffy blew King Wapol away with a set of rocket launchers, Thunder Hand Venso was too disdainful to explain it, and described it in three words: "a bullying game."

Afterwards, Captain Dalton, the guard who came up with Sanji and the others, thanked Luffy, and Luffy continued to chase Chopper.

Sanji got excited when he saw Chopper, shouting that it was food, but was then hammered down by Zoro, who simply pointed out his mistake: "That's our ship's doctor!"

Zoro knew that Luffy's pursuit would last until night, so he began to recite scriptures without distraction.

At first, he was disturbed by the crowds of people who kept pouring into the castle to see a doctor, and he couldn't calm down.

After he patiently finished reciting the entire scroll, he felt the outside noise dissolve into a hazy mist. The playful sounds of Sanji and the others reuniting with Nami, and the clamor of the villagers seeking Dr. Gureva for treatment, gradually faded in this hazy atmosphere, becoming intangible.

Heavy snow fluttered down from the sky, like countless white elves dancing in the air. They landed gently on his body, and his green algae head was gradually dyed white under the cover of snowflakes.

As the sky gradually darkened, a dazzling golden light seemed to appear in Zoro's tightly closed eyes. Within this golden light, a figure with three heads and six arms loomed, seemingly unleashing an extremely mysterious sword technique. The feeling was incredibly real, yet incredibly fleeting, as if it were a fleeting illusion, and as if it had never truly existed.

In a trance, Zoro woke up and tried to capture the fleeting image, but the golden light in his eyes and the figure with three heads and six arms had disappeared without a trace.

He hurriedly opened the system panel:

Love value:

Hmm? The ghost energy was gone, and the words "Nine Swords Style" appeared in the skill list. It seemed that the conditions for training had been met, but how to practice it? I still had no idea.

At this time, the voices of Luffy and Chopper were heard in my ears.

"Reindeer!!" Luffy screamed.

"Ah!!" Chopper's response came from afar.

"Hey! Let's become pirates together!" There was a hint of joy in Luffy's voice.

"No!! I'm different from them... No way..." Chopper's voice was hesitant and struggling, as if he was trying to persuade himself.

"What's wrong with that? Being a pirate is fun!"

After hesitating and struggling, Chopper seemed a little lost: "I... am very grateful... to you! But... I am a reindeer! I have horns, hooves, and a blue nose..."

"I really want to be a pirate..." It suddenly became very emotional, tears in its eyes: "But I'm not a human's partner, I'm a monster!! I can't be your partner!... So, I came here to express my gratitude to you!!"

Then it returned to its calm and desolate state, as if it had accepted its loneliness: "Thank you for inviting me, but I... I will stay here forever. You are welcome to come again..."

"Stop talking nonsense!! Come with me!!" The emotional king Luffy came online and shouted to the sky, his tone full of determination and undeniableness.

Seeing Chopper's eyes gradually becoming moist, Zoro felt helpless. He tried so hard to get close to him, but in the end he was no match for Luffy, the king who was full of emotions.

"Ooh!"

……

Everyone was waiting outside the castle for Chopper to say goodbye to Dr. Gureva.

"Hey, let's go say goodbye to the doctor and that uncle Dodoton." Luffy, sitting on the snow pile, was heartless.

"Silly! Let Chopper go alone. They will definitely cry their hearts out... Don't look at the fact that Doctor Guleva looks so powerful on the surface. She is actually very gentle deep down." Nami stopped him with understanding.

"Are we really leaving like this?" Usopp didn't know what kind of bond had developed between Yamashita and Dalton, and he felt a little reluctant.

"Of course, as soon as Chopper comes back, we will go to Alabasta immediately!" Nami never forgot the agreement with Vivi.

"Yeah... Then I'll go prepare the cable car!" Usopp is a smart man who knows how to use tools.

At this moment, there was a noise in the castle.

"Who is so blind? Can't you be quiet on someone's farewell night?" Innocent Nami.

Dr. Guleva's angry voice was heard from the castle: "What can you do in the sea? Do you want to survive on fantasy like that quack doctor?"

"That's not a fantasy!! The doctor's research has been completed!!" Chopper's hoarse shout was heard again.

Then, a reindeer pulled a sleigh and rushed out of the castle: "Everyone, come on up!"

……

On that quiet night, a bright full moon hung high in the sky, casting a silvery glow. The sound of reindeer hooves echoed in the still night air, as if playing a wonderful piece of music.

Under the full moon, a majestic reindeer pulled a sled across the sky, leaving a long trail. On the sled sat several figures, their appearances full of comical mystery.

Then, the roar of several cannons shattered the tranquility of the night. Immediately afterwards, pink snowflakes began to fall from the sky, their colorful descent like cherry blossoms, dyeing the entire world a pink.

The sled finally stopped on an empty snowy field. Looking at the sky full of flower stamens that the doctor had longed for, Chopper burst into tears...
