Her eyes lingered on the vast sea under the starlit sky as she murmured to herself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want to be a Pirate, then go… Chopper, you foolish… son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, Dalton watched silently, not daring to disturb the elderly doctor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around him stood the 20 doctors who had once been confined under Wapol's tyranny. Now, they gathered with reverence, fully recognizing Dalton as the rightful ruler of their country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton looked up at the pirate flag adorned with cherry blossoms fluttering above the castle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hiruluk, your son has gone to sea with a remarkable Pirate Crew,\" he said softly. \"Rest easy. Your spirit lives on in us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a guard dashed up the mountain path, panting heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dalton-san! A newspaper from several days ago just arrived. It was delayed somehow—please, take a look at these wanted posters!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton took the posters and froze upon seeing the familiar faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Straw Hat Pirates Vice Captain, 'The Plunderer' Shirogai Yamikuro — Bounty: 100 million Berries!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Straw Hat Pirates Captain, Straw Hat Luffy — Bounty: 30 million Berries!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasps echoed among the gathered doctors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?! Their combined bounty is already 130 million Berries? That's insane!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had spent months at sea under Wapol's command as unwilling ship doctors aboard the Tin-Plate Pirates' vessel, facing numerous pirate crews.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite their misfortunes, the Pirates had proven strong, crushing most opposition. Wapol would devour enemy ships using his ability, forcing enemy pirates to abandon ship and flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had even encountered some notorious figures—like the Outlaw Madman, with a bounty of 50 million Berries, and the sharpshooter known as Sea Arrow, with a 20 million Berries bounty. These were formidable enemies with well-staffed ships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, the Straw Hat Crew, with barely a handful of members, had already surpassed those larger crews in notoriety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected, they aren't just some wandering upstarts,\" Dalton said with a rare smile of relief. \"With a Captain and Vice Captain like that, the rest of their crew is bound to shake the world soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Kureha walked over, snatched the posters from Dalton's hand, studied them briefly, and chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh. A Vice Captain worth 100 million Berries and a Captain worth 30 million? That's quite the criminal pair.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Straw Hat Luffy?\" one of the guards muttered, scratching his head. \"I think I've heard that name before…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He perked up suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh right! About a week ago, a strange traveler showed up in Robel Town. It was one of the rare days it didn't snow. He said he was looking for Blackbeard, who had attacked our country.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When he learned Blackbeard had already escaped, he told me, 'If you ever see a Pirate with a Straw Hat, tell him I'll be waiting in Alabasta.'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton crossed his arms in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hunting Blackbeard alone? That kind of man isn't ordinary.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard's eyes widened as he recalled something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right! He said his name was Ace!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ace…? Regardless, they're all heading to Alabasta anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Kureha tossed the posters back to Dalton and sat down, staring at the moonlit sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, what do you plan to do with Wapol and Mushuru?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton couldn't suppress a sly grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Pirate already took care of them. Honestly, what he did fits those two scumbags perfectly. You should come see for yourself, Kureha-san.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Now I'm curious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She followed Dalton through the castle until they reached the room where the two former tyrants had been imprisoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering, Kureha's eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What in the world is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of the room stood a two-meter-tall mechanical box. Its conveyor tracks rotated endlessly as pirate soldiers and guards placed sand and stones onto them. The materials were pulled into the box, and after a few seconds, emerged on the other side as solid bricks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The workers quickly transported these bricks to restore the castle's crumbling walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton pointed at the box, laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't recognize him? This is Wapol!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, two tiny eyes popped open on the side of the box—eyes unmistakably Wapol's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Witch! Dalton!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They swiveled around menacingly as a robotic voice echoed from inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You wretched peasants! How dare you treat me like this! When I break free, I'll make you suffer!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that really… Wapol?\" Dr. Kureha circled the mechanical box, barely believing her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How… how was this done?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the box, Wapol's robotic voice roared in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That damned Pirate! He stole my Devil Fruit powers! Turned me into some kind of… machine! When I escape, I'll turn him into one too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wapol, you're noisy as ever,\" Dalton muttered. He approached the control panel and pressed a red button marked with a crossed-out mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instant silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kureha blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This… was done by Shirogai?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He said it was through the power of his Devil Fruit. Wapol is now a processing machine. Feed raw materials into the track, and select a product to produce.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Kureha leaned over the panel and spotted dozens of selection buttons—over a hundred, actually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To demonstrate, Dalton signaled the guards to feed in some fabric, sand, and fluff, and pressed a button shaped like a toy with antlers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creak… creak…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seconds later, a dozen plush Chopper-shaped dolls rolled out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Kureha picked one up, examining it with mixed awe and horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Chopper doll? That's… twisted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's very popular with children!\" a guard chimed in proudly. \"My daughter absolutely adores them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kureha chuckled despite herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, Chopper is beloved by kids…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Pirate turned Wapol into this to atone for all the suffering he caused this land.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gestured for her to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mushuru's in another room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They entered a pitch-black chamber. A torch was lit, revealing a grotesque scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center of the room was a thick wooden pillar stretching to the ceiling, covered in mushrooms. At the top sat a pink wooden head—Mushuru's lifeless expression stared down at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kill me, Dalton… please… just kill me…\" the head groaned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kureha recoiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did he end up like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shirogai did this too. Don't ask me how.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Mushuru's wooden face contorted in rage, and the entire pillar shook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's a demon! A monster! He turned me into this… thing! I'll never forgive him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the pillar trembled, small mushrooms rapidly grew, plumped, and fell to the ground in waves. New ones immediately began to grow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kureha stared in silent disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dalton explained calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as the pillar is agitated, mushrooms will keep growing. Just water the base occasionally. There's enough here to feed every citizen on Drum Island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kureha didn't respond. Her expression was unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she'd ever visited Earth, she might have understood—this was madness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stepped back outside into the moonlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kureha's mind was troubled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it truly wise to let Chopper follow a man like that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai Yamikuro hadn't just defeated Wapol and Mushuru… he had broken them, forcing them to live on in torment, unable to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man like that…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Achoo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Onboard the Going Merry, Shirogai Yamikuro sneezed lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rubbed his nose and glanced around, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is some beautiful woman thinking about me again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get access to chapters in advance by becoming patrons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>patreon.com\u002FZphyr_\u003C\u002Fp>",1233,"2026-06-06T06:44:36.996Z",1,"novelbin.me","d83ee40ab4e1c111eb2156ccef66e8c0b7aa3dad71506f230a527c88c68b0c11","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-65","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-63",652,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-cover.jpg"]
