Chapter 242 Chopper's Medical Ethics

"You're such a rare doctor. Isn't this a naval base? How have you been treating patients all this time?" Nami asked with her hands on her hips.

"My specialty is pediatrics," said Corbatto. "The other doctors are all on business trips. Please, I will temporarily take over as the head of the medical office."

"Temporary? No matter temporary or what, you are the head of the infirmary now." Chopper said.

"Well, I guess so," said Corbatto.

"Is that so?" Chopper looked at Kobatto helplessly.

"Chopper, let's leave here quickly." Nami said in a low voice.

"But..." Chopper said.

"We can escape. This is not a lake. It is connected to the sea. The Golden Merry can escape." Nami said.

"You can't leave now." Chopper said, looking at Kobato, "You are a doctor who saves lives, right?"

"Yeah." Corbatto smiled awkwardly, "But even doctors have things they can and can't do."

"The person who taught me medicine once told me a story about a man who was told by a doctor that he was going to die. He desperately looked for a place to die, but he came across a mountain with bright cherry blossoms blooming all over the mountain."

"Then the man found another doctor, who said to him, 'You are just like a healthy person.' For the patients here, you are the only doctor, and only you can save them."

"We must never give up. There is no disease in this world that cannot be cured. We cannot say 'there is nothing in this world that cannot be done.' There is no patient that we doctors cannot cure."

"Doctors can work miracles. At least you have to believe in it."

Chopper stood up and spoke seriously to Kobato.

[Ding, witness that people who believe in miracles are as amazing as miracles themselves. Complete the witness event and get B-level rewards, medical ninjutsu, and chakra scalpel.]

"Well, can I see the cherry blossoms too?" Kobatto murmured, "No, can I let those who are suffering see the cherry blossoms?"

"Of course I will help." Chopper said.

"Wait, this isn't the time to do this, right?" Nami stopped her.

"Although it's not the right time, human life always comes first because I'm a doctor." Chopper said seriously, "The first rule of the Hippocrates Code is that no matter where I am, whether I meet a man or a woman, a good person or an evil person, my only goal is to save the dying and the wounded, so that my life and medical skills can gain supreme glory."

Chopper's words made Kobato's eyes widen.

"I won't care about you if you do that." Nami said, "Is this okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, two nurses came in.

"Doctor, the preoperative preparations are ready."

"Understood, I'll be there right away." Chopper replied.

"Chopper, doctor..." Nami reminded through gritted teeth.

Kobato stood up, and under the gaze of Chopper and Nami, he said seriously: "I understand."

Then he walked past the two of them towards the locker room.

"Chopper!" Nami shouted as she looked at Chopper who was following her.

"You don't have to worry about me. If I leave here now, Doctor Doriel will be angry." Chopper stopped and said, then walked into the locker room firmly.

"Really? How could I leave you all alone?" Nami followed helplessly.

Not long after, the three of them underwent preoperative disinfection and changed their clothes. They wore surgical isolation gowns, masks and hats, and rubber gloves, and walked into the operating room with their hands raised.

With the help of Chopper and Nami, Kobato finally overcame his fear, picked up the scalpel, and completed the operation.

"Excuse me." Suddenly, Drake walked in with Wang Hao, who was holding Hanhan, and several soldiers.

"The operation is in progress now, please go out!" Corbatto pulled open the curtain, stuck his head out and said to Drake.

"There's something unusual going on, Dr. Corbatto," Drake said. "I have two words to tell you."

"Dr. Corbatto, the patient's blood pressure is dropping." Nami's voice came from behind the curtain.

Corbatto turned his head back to look at the operating table.

"Give the patient a blood transfusion immediately and prepare a bag of platelets," said Chopper.

"Yes." Nami and another nurse did so immediately.

"Continue the blood transfusion." Chopper said, "Prepare the serum as well."

"Ahem, Dr. Corbatto..." Drake was about to speak when he was interrupted.

"Emergency surgery is underway, please be quiet," said Corbatto.

"Can you perform surgery? Wouldn't you faint when you see my hand bleeding?" Drake said, "There should be another strange doctor inside."

"You are hindering us. There are only doctors and nurses here who are trying their best to save patients' lives." Corbatto looked at Drake seriously and said.

"Let's retreat." Drake saw Cobatto's determined eyes, thought for a moment, and turned around and left.

"Watch here," Drake ordered as he walked out of the operating room.

"Yes." Several soldiers stayed.

As the operations were completed one after another, all the injured were finally treated and the nurses pushed the patients away.

"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Corbatto," said Nami.

Kobatto also took off his mask and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chopper suddenly became smaller behind Kobato.

"Chopper?" Nami asked in shock.

"Dr. Corbatto is excellent." Chopper said.

"How can I be considered an excellent doctor? Mr. Tanuki is the excellent doctor." Kobato turned around and spoke without being surprised by Chopper's transformation.

"What are you talking about, idiot." Chopper immediately became shy, "I'm not a raccoon cat, I'm a reindeer!"

At this moment, sirens suddenly sounded. Corbat ran to the door to inquire about the situation. When he heard that there was a pirate pretending to be a doctor, he was so scared that he closed the door and walked towards Chopper and Nami.

As for the sirens, they were naturally caused by other friends.

In the cafeteria, it was dinner time, and Jonathan also came to the cafeteria, wanting to taste the cooking skills of the two chef brothers of Mary Joa.

"I say, Jessica, isn't this a dish you often cook?" Jonathan looked at his wife.

"Any opinions, Commander?" Jessica asked with her arms folded across her chest and her head tilted.

"Because I heard from the Marines that the chef from Mary Geoise cooks delicious dishes, so I came to the cafeteria to try them." Jonathan looked at the dishes he used to eat on the plate.

"But, the dishes prepared by me, the head chef, are not to your liking?" Jessica asked, lying on the table. "I can't let you always eat the same thing as those guys. This is healthy food that is full of love. Come on, please taste it."

"But, it's all vegetables." Jonathan raised his head with a bitter face and said coquettishly, "I don't like broccoli and carrots."

As he spoke, he poked the cauliflower on the plate with a fork.
