After speaking, Vir spun around, redirecting Wapol’s massive hammer to the side.
Due to inertia, Wapol stumbled to Vir’s side, completely off balance.
At that moment, Vir’s spinning kick was already aimed straight at Wapol’s face.
“Leg Reinforcement!”
Vir muttered under his breath!
Just before his kick connected, his right leg visibly swelled, muscles expanding in an instant!
Wapol felt an unstoppable force crashing onto him! His face twisted in absolute horror.
His entire face distorted severely—the impact was so strong that his mouth was nearly kicked up to his forehead.
With a loud *BANG*, Wapol’s entire body vanished from sight, sent flying.
At that moment, Luffy and his crew’s mouths all formed an “O” shape.
What just happened?
What just happened?! WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!
For a moment, they all felt like they were channeling Franky’s dramatic reactions, wanting to shout out loud: “What the hell?!”
Vir, who didn’t look the least bit muscular, who even seemed a bit scholarly, had just sent Wapol flying hundreds of meters with a single kick!
Luffy’s jaw literally hit the ground with a *THUNK*.
His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
“This doctor… seems a little off, doesn’t he?”
Nami’s lips twitched slightly, her voice trembling. The sheer force of Vir’s kick had shattered the snow around him, revealing the brown earth underneath.
“Yeah… he’s definitely different.”
Doctor Kureha also nodded in agreement.
Behind Vir, Chopper’s tiny eyes widened to their limits!
He knew it! His master was the greatest!
At this moment, Chopper’s admiration for Vir skyrocketed once again, elevating him to a god-like status.
Sanji, who had been drowning in despair, was momentarily snapped out of it after witnessing Vir’s attack. His expression turned complex.
‘Kick techniques? He actually knows kick techniques?! And he’s even stronger than me! But… why do his kicks look so similar to mine?!’
Even Vir himself was shocked by what he had just done.
‘Am I really this strong?’
‘I only gained three combat abilities so far…’
‘And I’m already this powerful?!’
“Chopper, watch closely and learn well. This is your first lesson from me.”
After saying that, Vir charged towards Wapol once more.
Chopper was left behind, staring at Vir’s retreating figure, his eyes twinkling like stars.
“Big bro treats me so well! I have to learn properly!”
Wapol, after being sent flying for hundreds of meters, finally came to a stop.
His face was wracked with pain, and before he could even recover, he saw a spinning figure rapidly descending from the sky towards him.
“Stop! Stop right there!”
Wapol screamed in terror, but it was completely useless.
In the blink of an eye, Vir, spinning mid-air, descended with a devastating axe kick, smashing straight onto Wapol’s head.
The overwhelming force compressed Wapol’s body rapidly.
He became flatter and flatter.
His vision blurred, his teeth shattered, and a massive gush of blood spewed from his mouth.
Under the sheer impact of the attack, a deep dent caved into the middle of his skull.
His eyes rolled back, and in moments, he completely lost consciousness.
“Ah?!”
Seeing Wapol collapse, unable to move, everyone was dumbfounded.
Two moves?
Chopper found it utterly unbelievable.
That guy had just given him a brutal beating earlier.
Yet to Vir, it was as if Wapol was merely an itch to be scratched.
And now, in just two kicks, Wapol was completely out of commission!
‘This is ridiculous!’
At this moment, Chopper truly realized the vast difference between himself and Vir.
Vir landed next to Wapol’s unconscious body, his interest fading.
‘Two moves, and he’s already down.’
‘I wanted to test my strength a little more… Guess I’ll have to wait for another chance.’
Looking at Wapol, who was out cold, Vir casually launched another kick, sending him soaring through the air.
*Whoosh~~* Wapol arced through the sky before plummeting off the mountain, vanishing from sight.
Clapping his hands, Vir turned towards Chopper.
‘Look at this kid.’
‘Injured again. Guess I’ll have to treat him.’
‘Honestly…’
‘IT’S PERFECT!!!’
Vir grinned widely.
As a legendary doctor, saving lives is my mission!
However, as Vir approached, beaming, Chopper’s look of admiration quickly turned into one of fear.
‘Crap!’
‘I got hurt again!’
Chopper’s heart sank in despair.
Who knew what kind of ‘treatment’ his master would use this time?
Though getting treated was terrifying, at least he could experience his master’s techniques firsthand…
‘That’s not a bad deal…’ Chopper tried to comfort himself.
Vir walked over and grabbed Chopper by his tiny antlers, lifting him up effortlessly.
“Come on, let’s get you checked out.”
Vir’s tone was lighthearted.
“O-Okay, big bro…”
Chopper’s face was filled with reluctance, his eyes brimming with unshed tears.
Back inside the hut, everyone looked at Vir differently now.
Luffy, who had been somewhat normal earlier, now had a devout expression, as if worshipping a deity.
He found this pickaxe-wielding doctor utterly fascinating.
His eyes sparkled with excitement.
Vir first turned to look at Sanji.
Right now, he only had one thing on his mind:
‘Sanji! Your kick techniques are amazing! They’re incredibly useful!’
If Sanji knew what he was thinking, he would probably respond:
‘Useful, huh?! I traded my lifelong self-esteem for those, damn it!’
Vir patted the collapsed Sanji on the shoulder and said in a serious tone, “Looks are just an outer shell. The soul is what truly attracts people, Sanji.”
Hearing this, Sanji, who had been lying motionless, finally reacted.
Slowly, he lifted his head to look at Vir.
However, as soon as Vir saw Sanji’s face, he quickly turned his head away.
His gaze became evasive.
He didn’t dare look for too long—he might actually vomit.
Sanji, noticing this, was instantly enraged.
“Didn’t you just say appearances don’t matter?!”
“Look at me! You coward!”
Sanji shouted in frustration, trying to awaken whatever sense of morality Vir had.
But morality? Vir never had any to begin with.
Seeing Sanji’s despair, Vir decided to reveal the truth.
“Actually, the effects of that potion only last for a day. You’ll be back to normal by tomorrow.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sanji, who had been drowning in despair, suddenly changed!
His dead eyes regained their sparkle, his defeated expression turned into a beaming smile, and his life regained meaning!
Sanji only had one thought:
‘Ladies! Your prince is back!’
“Really?!”
Sanji asked excitedly.
“Nah, I was just messing with you.”
Sanji’s joy shattered instantly.
Meanwhile, Vir heard a familiar sound in his head.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have gained 500 negative points!]
Nice!
Profit secured!
“No, no, I’m serious this time. Look at the bottle—it says it right there.”
Seeing Sanji’s foot about to launch at him, Vir quickly clarified.
Sanji grabbed the bottle and, sure enough, it said ‘Lasts for one day.’
His expression cleared up instantly.
Gripping the bottle tightly, he burst into laughter.
“Hahaha! Just wait! Tomorrow, the world’s most handsome man will return!”
