35 Chapter 34 (1/2)

Finding Nojiko, I requested her to make holes on the ship and to create oar for us to row. Creating five clones, we started rowing the Going Merry towards the direction of the Log Pose.

I would have liked if Mikita could lighten the ship with her Kilo-Kilo fruit, but that is out of the question for now.

After traveling for a day, the temperature around us started to drop. Shortly afterward, we reached an island covered by snow with a series of drum-shaped mountains.

We saw a docked ship that's even larger than ours. There was a group that was aiming their weapons at us, but once they saw the Giants behind us, they quickly ran away.

Dorry and Broggy offered to stay and guard both of our ships, while the rest of the crew searches for a Doctor. It would be better if they stay here, as they might scare the citizens of the island. We tied Robin to my back and disembarked the Going Merry.

”Why can't she be tied to my back.” Sanji cried in the background.

After traveling for half an hour, we reached a half-destroyed town. The citizens there were panicking while yelling that their previous king has returned. Surrounding them was another group of people, who were all armed with weapons. They were saying that they will kill anyone who defies their king.

Upon noticing us, the citizens got even more frightened and tried to find a place to hide, while the armed man aimed their guns at us.

”You aren't that scary without your Giants.” One of them yelled at us.

Johnny, Yosaku and Sanji immediately sprung into action after hearing them. Within moments, they had dealt with all the armed men.

The citizen seeing that we are helping them and that we mean no harm started cheering for us. They told us that King Wapol has returned and that he is currently on his way towards Drum Castle with his royal guards.

They also informed us that there is only one Doctor on this island and that she currently lives in Drum Castle, which is on top of the largest mountain.

”Guys, I don't know how much time Robin has, and I don't want to take any chance. I will immediately go towards Drum Castle with her.” I told my crew. They all knew my capabilities, so no one objected expect Sanji, but I didn't have time to deal with his antics.

While moving towards the castle, I felt Robin position her head on my shoulder.

”Why are you doing this?” Robin barely had the strength to talk.

”I'm not going to let someone from my crew die in front of me!” I stated.

”I'm not apart of your crew. I only joined temporarily.” She whispered.

”Temporary or not, you are a part of my crew! You are my responsibility and I won't allow you to die!” I affirmed, and she didn't respond after that.

Reaching the bottom of the mountain, I started using Geppo to start climbing it.

Right before reaching the top, I felt a lot of Auras with my Observation Haki, but one of those Auras felt different from the others. It was so immense that it made me scared just from being able to sense it with Observation Haki.

Once I got to the top, I saw a bulky human-reindeer struggling against Wapol and his followers. I immediately created three clones, who went to help him.
