The rudder on the head of the golden lion was sunk deeply into his head, with only a small piece of it exposed, like a broken monument in the wilderness. The rusty and mottled paint on the rudder blade seems to record its past sailing years, but now it has become a cruel weapon. The skin around the wound was torn and rolled up, exposing the bright red muscles and blood vessels underneath. The blood had coagulated, forming a thick, dark red scab around the wound. The edges of the wound were extremely irregular. In some places, deep bones could be seen, exposing dense white bones, while in other places, only the surface of the skin was torn. Faintly, the brain tissue that had been brutally destroyed by the rudder could be seen from inside the wound. The tragic red and white scene was shocking. The entire wound was swollen and bruised, giving it a terrifying color. If this happened to ordinary people, they would probably die from wound infection. After all, such an injury is tantamount to exposing part of the brain tissue, which can easily lead to infection and inflammation. If it weren't for the amazing physical fitness and resilience of the strong men in the One Piece world, the Golden Lion might have died long ago due to brain tissue hemorrhage or inflammation. "Let's cut off the outer part of the rudder first."
Lin Yi touched the rudder on the golden lion's head with a scalpel. The moment Lin Yi touched the rudder, the golden lion couldn't help but groaned, and a trace of pain flashed across his face. This rudder is extremely sensitive to the golden lion even if it is touched slightly. "Indygo, use pliers to hold it firmly. Remember, your hands must not move." Lin Yi instructed seriously. Indigo followed Lin Yi's instructions, picked up the surgical forceps from the cart, and firmly pinched the root of the rudder above the golden lion's head. His expression was focused and nervous, fearing that anything would go wrong. Lin Yi took a deep breath, adjusted himself, and made a slashing gesture with his right hand. He held the handle of the scalpel tightly and pressed his thumb firmly on the back of the scalpel. Lin Yi carefully observed the connection between the rudder and the scalp, which was the key to the operation. With a sudden wave of his arm, the scalpel flashed with cold light. "Crack!" A crisp cutting sound instantly pierced the tense and quiet atmosphere in the operating room. Lin Yi's scalpel cleanly cut off the wheel outside the rudder. At that moment, the severed upper part of the rudder slipped from the golden lion's head and made a muffled sound when it hit the ground. Lin Yi's hand holding the scalpel trembled slightly. Although the golden lion closed his eyes tightly, the expression on his face seemed to relax, as if he felt that the heavy pressure on his head was being removed. You must know that Lin Yi must cut off the upper half while stabilizing the rudder to ensure that it does not emit any vibration. This task is far more difficult than simply cutting off the rudder. It can be said that if the Golden Lion had not given Lin Yi special training to greatly improve his swordsmanship, such delicate operations would have been an almost impossible task for Lin Yi. Next, the real surgery is about to begin. Lin Yi signaled to Indygo and injected a large dose of anesthetic into the golden lion.
This is also a helpless move, because in the world of One Piece, the strong men all have outstanding physical fitness and drink alcohol all year round, which makes them surprisingly resistant to anesthetics. If large doses are not used, it may be difficult to achieve the expected anesthetic effect. As the anesthetic gradually took effect, the golden lion finally relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. For a long time, the metal rudder on his head weighed more than 40 kilograms, exerting pressure on his brain tissue all the time. Lin Yi cut off the rudder wheel, which was equivalent to lifting more than 30 kilograms of weight from the golden lion's head. Once the golden lion's head relaxed, his body also relaxed and he naturally fell asleep. Hearing the slight purr from the golden lion, Lin Yi knew that the most difficult part of the operation was about to begin. The next operation is to finely cut the brain tissue of the golden lion. This process is full of unknowns and risks. Lin Yi must do his best to avoid any unnecessary damage to brain tissue, because the structure of the human brain is extremely complex, and a slight carelessness may trigger a chain reaction and cause unpredictable consequences. Indygo handed over a brand new scalpel. The previous one had shown signs of chipping after cutting the rudder, and it was obvious that it could no longer be used. Lin Yi waved his hand, indicating that he did not need this new scalpel. Immediately, Lin Yi's hands began to gather black energy, which soon completely enveloped his hands. "This is?" "The secret technique passed down from our ancestors." Seeing the black energy in Lin Yi's hand, Indigo showed a curious look on his face. However, Lin Yi did not explain too much, but focused on gently placing his palm on the back of the golden lion's head. As Lin Yi's perception gradually deepened, a shocking picture emerged in his mind. The wound was like a dark, irregularly shaped crack, torn deeply into the golden lion's brain tissue, which looked extremely shocking. The rudder is like a ruthless invader, mercilessly penetrating the skull that protects the brain, wantonly destroying the originally orderly brain structure and turning it into fragments. Lin Yi could clearly feel how the brain tissue at the edge of the wound was violently torn apart, and the nerve cells were ruthlessly severed in the process. The broken axons and dendrites, like withered branches, hung sadly on the edge of the wound, as if telling the silent disaster. This damage is not just physical. It is more like a brutal invasion of the brain, causing immeasurable neurological damage. The situation inside the wound is shocking. The cerebrospinal fluid and the exuded blood are mixed together to form a strange dark red liquid, which accumulates around the wound like a polluted swamp. This mixture not only brings visual impact, but also indicates the severity and complexity of the wound. The deeper brain tissue is more seriously damaged. Due to the forced insertion of the rudder, some brain tissues are compressed, deformed, and even necrotic areas appear. These necrotic tissues are like dead wood that has lost its vitality. They can no longer assume their original functions and have caused great damage to the nervous system of the Golden Lion. Lin Yi can also clearly perceive the inflammatory response around the wound. A large number of white blood cells and other immune cells are struggling to cope with it and try to repair this huge trauma. But in the face of such severe physical damage, the effect seems a bit pale and powerless.
Lin Yi used all his perception to concentrate his attention to the extreme. The following surgical operation required extremely high precision and extreme care. Any negligence could cause irreparable damage to the golden lion. He first carefully observed the position and depth of the rudder inserted into the golden lion's head and the specific conditions of the tissues around the wound. Then, Lin Yi carefully used the chakra scalpel to gently scrape off the brain tissue and blood scabs on the rudder. Every time he scraped, Lin Yi would carefully observe the cleaning situation to ensure that no part was missed to avoid involving the wound later.
