Chapter 70 Valpo

"Sanji, stop it, Chopper is not food!"

"No, that's right! I'm not food!" Chopper said this angrily, and at the same time his body changed from a reindeer to a human.

"!!!"

Chopper's series of actions stunned everyone around him.

"Reindeer... can talk?" Luffy opened his mouth wide.

"Can you transform?" Usopp also widened his eyes.

Then the air was quiet for a few seconds, and then suddenly a huge shout broke out.

"Monster!"

( ?? ﹏ ?? )!

Chopper couldn't help feeling disappointed when he heard this. It seemed that he still couldn't integrate into human society. There were too few people who were not prejudiced against him.

e=(′o｀*))) Alas!

It seems that he can't be a companion with others after all, so he should stay on Drum Island. At this moment, Chopper's desire to go out to sea dropped to the freezing point.

But the next second, what Luffy and Usopp said made his eyes shine brightly again.

"This is so interesting, reindeer, why don't you be our partner?" Luffy said happily.

Usopp said: "It's really interesting, and it's furry and cute~"

At this moment, looking at the smiles on the faces of the people around him, Chopper's mood was more complicated than ever before.

He found that these people did not have expressions of disgust and fear on their faces like those who had previously called him a monster. Instead, they were excited and curious. They were not afraid of him!

Unconsciously, an inexplicable feeling arose in his heart. It was an indescribable feeling. He couldn't understand it now, but he knew that he was very happy now, very happy!

……

Half an hour later

A group of people gathered in front of the stove, eating the meat of the goldfish king that Xia Chen took out from the system space.

Chopper licked the meat modestly and didn't eat it. After all, he was a vegetarian, so eating meat... didn't seem like a good idea, right?

When Xia Chen saw Chopper licking obediently, he couldn't help but think of the scene in the original work where Chopper learned a lot of Luffy and the others' "advantages" after getting on the ship.

He is good at eating meat, drinking alcohol, and being amorous. His main feature is that he has a strong learning ability. However, it seems that he has learned all the bad things and has not learned any of the good things.

"Xia Chen, the meat of this goldfish king tastes different, it's so delicious! Fortunately you saved some of it!" Luffy said with emotion while eating.

Everyone around nodded in agreement when they heard this. Even Dalton, the owner of the house, was impressed by the taste of the goldfish king.

Dalton looked at Xia Chen curiously and said, "What kind of goldfish is this King Goldfish? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"Oh, a super-large sea king. This is the first time I've seen one too!" Xia Chen said lightly, but his words stunned Dalton.

"Super...large sea king?"

"How did you get that meat?" He wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked cautiously.

"How else can you get this? Just kill it and then cut the meat!" Xia Chen did not answer. Instead, Luffy looked at him as if he was a fool and said.

Dalton was sweating even more at this time. He was clearly on an extremely cold winter island, and normally he would still feel a little chilly even with a stove, but why did his sweat glands feel a little developed today?

"By the way, to thank you for trusting my companions and helping them get to the island, I'll leave some goldfish king meat for you!" Xia Chen said to Dalton.

"Okay, thank you!" Dalton answered subconsciously. Then he suddenly turned around and looked at Xia Chen in confusion.

"How do you know I helped them get to the island?"

"Guessed it!"

"Because I know that the residents of your island hate pirates. After all, this country was just destroyed by pirates!"

Dalton was instantly startled when he heard this, stood up and stared at Xia Chen.

"How did you know this? Are you in cahoots with that pirate from before?"

"No, no, no, I just happened to know!"

"After all, the pirate who destroyed your country is currently somewhat famous."

"Blackbeard—Marshall D. Teach!"

"One of the future Four Emperors!" Xia Chen said the latter sentence in his heart.

"Yes, that's right, that's his name!"

Dalton sat down again, and then slowly said: "Although I hate him very much, from another perspective, the destruction of the country may not be a bad thing!"

"Why? Isn't it a bad thing that your own country is destroyed?" After hearing Dalton's words, Vivi, who had been silent, stood up and shouted excitedly.

For a moment, everyone looked at her and looked at each other in confusion.

. . . .

"Uh... sorry, I'm a little excited, please continue!" Weiwei sat down a little embarrassedly.

Dalton was a little confused at this time. He was really frightened by Weiwei. After adjusting his mood, he continued: "Because the country was destroyed, we got rid of the tyranny of our king!"

"Our place was formerly called the Kingdom of the Drum. The king was a man named Walpo. He was tyrannical and cruel. He was even the first to flee when the pirates came, leaving his people behind..."

"How can a king do this? Isn't a king supposed to protect his people? He is not even worthy of being a king!"

Weiwei stood up again and shouted excitedly.

Dalton: . . . .

Why do I feel like you are more excited than me?

Dalton was a little confused, but Luffy and others knew very clearly why Vivi was like this.

At this time, a hand patted Weiwei's shoulder, and then said to her:

"Don't get excited, Weiwei. Not every king is like what you said. A large number of kings are like Walpo, who don't care about their country or their people at all!"

"So kings like you said who love their people will be fine, because no one is more suitable to be the king of a country than this kind of people!"

"Xia Chen..." Weiwei stared at Xia Chen in a daze and murmured softly.

Xia Chen gave Weiwei a reassuring look, and just when he was about to say something, there was a noisy sound outside.

Dalton immediately stood up and said to everyone, "Stay here for a while, I'll go see what's going on outside!"

After saying that, he pushed the door and walked out.

"Let's go, let's go and see what's going on, maybe we can join in the fun." Xia Chen also said to everyone.

Everyone slowly came outside, only to see Dalton staring blankly ahead, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes, and then he said with an unpleasant expression:

"Valpo!!!"
