Chapter 578
Facing this gorgeous sea of cherry blossoms, Kaya only told part of the truth. She did not say why the cherry trees grow so well. The nutrients under the roots of the trees are all excellent organic fertilizers.
Burying the dead under the cherry trees can make the cherry trees grow taller, stronger and bloom faster. I don’t know how many lives have been buried in this sea of cherry blossoms. Kaya’s master cannot calculate this number.
Many lives were not lost by doctors. In order to remember the dead people in her hometown forever, Kaya buried a large part of the bodies under the cherry trees. On specific death anniversaries, she would go to worship and offer sacrifices. It is also a kind of pathology to keep precious people by your side.
"The building in front is where I work. There are only my master and me here. The guest rooms are enough for us to live. So many people come at a time, so we have to consider the issue of eating in advance."
The Straw Hat Pirates followed the direction Kaya pointed, moved their eyes away from the sea of cherry blossoms, and looked at the small buildings in the distance. The beauty of nature lingered in their hearts.
The medical house is built on the mountain and made of local materials. Although it is not very luxurious, it has a unique fresh and refined charm. Its architectural style is in harmony with the surrounding natural environment, as if it grew naturally from this mountain forest.
A clear stream runs across, and the gurgling water adds a bit of agility to the medical house. The rugged rocks and lush trees by the stream complement the medical house.
The walls are made of natural stones, and the roof is covered with thick thatch and bamboo sticks, which looks simple and elegant. The windows of each room are open, and the sun shines into the house through the gaps of the cherry trees. The swaying light and shadow make people feel quiet and comfortable.
There is no hustle and bustle of the big city here, only the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers and fresh air. As people approach the medical house, it seems to be in a fairyland isolated from the world, making people forget all their troubles in a short time, and their mood becomes peaceful and tranquil.
"This place is really a good place to live in seclusion"
Robin couldn't help but sigh. Quiet places are very suitable for self-cultivation. People like her who like to read also like quietness. If one day the historical text is completely cracked, she may find a similar place to live in seclusion.
Under Kaya's deliberate arrangement, all members of the Straw Hat Pirates entered the reception room. After everyone sat down, the woman stood in the center of everyone's vision and began to introduce the rules of this place to her friends.
"Although my master is not well-known on the sea, as long as the patients she handles will be treated, her personality is quite strange. Master, she has three things she won't save: not saving if they are not dead, not saving if they are lustful, and not saving if they don't like them."
Kaya's three things made her master a strange doctor. Many patients who came here for her reputation were turned away by her. Even if the patient died in front of the strange doctor, she would remain indifferent. Many times, whether to save a patient depends on whether she is in the mood at the time.
After introducing the master's quirk to friends, the Straw Hat Pirates were shocked. They didn't expect that there would be such a strange doctor in the world. The three rules of not saving patients were a bit too flexible, and outsiders had no room for manipulation.
"Suddenly I feel that Chopper's medical ethics are still too reliable, and outside doctors are really not reliable"
The shemale Sanji was speechless after hearing this. Why did he open a medical hut to save people when he broke so many rules? Patients who come here depend on luck. Once they are unlucky, they will delay treatment and die here in despair.
"Kaya, how much medical fees will your master charge after the treatment? We have such a good relationship. Can you give us a discount?"
Everyone is an acquaintance and has a relationship with Usopp. Nami is not worried that Chopper will not be treated. Her money-grubbing personality makes her feel a little sorry for the money. As the housekeeper of the Straw Hat Pirates, she wants to save some money on Xiaolu's medical expenses. We are all friends, so it's not too much to give a backdoor!
Kaya just smiled awkwardly. Nami's money-grubbing personality remained unchanged, because it was not a question of money. The reward collected by the strange doctor after treating the patient was more precious than money.
"My master is not short of money. No matter how much money is used to pay for saving people, it cannot be offset. The real reward is a life. The strange doctor follows the principle of saving one person and killing one person. She said that this is the only way to complete the cycle of justice."
Save one person and kill one person. Everyone was stunned on the spot when they heard this. Is Master Kaya really a doctor? Could it be some perverted murderer? Even if it is the cycle of justice, it doesn't make sense!
"Who do you want to kill? Are there any specific requirements?"
Zoro opened one eye and broke the silence first. If there is a villain in the Straw Hat Pirates, he will take the lead. It is also the vice-captain's job to share the blame for Luffy.
"It seems that there is no need to bargain this time. A life is a life. This master is really weird." Nami couldn't help but have a headache after hearing this. Whether Luffy agrees or not is a problem, killing an innocent person, no one with a normal mind would do it.
Usopp looked at his lover with some heartache. He didn't expect Kaya to live with such a weirdo. Will her temperament change drastically in the future and be trained by the weird doctor to be the next weird doctor? There is too much room for imagination here.
"Taking human lives as a reward will not be settled immediately. The master will keep it in the account and assign you to do it when needed. This process is still relatively flexible."
Kaya said half and left half. She concealed from her friends who she was going to kill and what the rules of killing were. As long as people didn't ask, she didn't intend to tell these details.
At present, the purpose is to treat Chopper. If the little boat is cured, everything can be discussed afterwards. Xiaolu is getting thinner and thinner due to sleep. If the real situation is not treated, he will probably not live beyond next year.
As the captain, Luffy did not speak and was in a dilemma. He knew in his heart that he had to save Chopper and could not give up his partner for any reason, but the cost of saving him was to kill a person, which was a little difficult for him to accept from a moral perspective.
But how could the life of an unfamiliar outsider be compared with Chopper's life? Life and life are not of the same price. Luffy, who had not experienced the Battle of the Top, would definitely leave on the spot when he heard the strange doctor's rule of saving people, but the past is the past and the present is the present. The same Luffy at different times has already turned upside down in terms of mentality.
Seeing that her friends did not express any objections, Kaya took the initiative to leave the room to find her master to see if she was in the mood to treat Chopper. A round of soft and hard grinding was inevitable.
The atmosphere in the reception room fell into a dull atmosphere. During the waiting period, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates remained silent and acquiesced to Kaya's conditions in action.
When pirates want to break the bottom line, the Straw Hat Pirates actually use it on Chopper. It sounds really ironic.
