Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 418: The Doctor

As he climbs, Leo finds a problem, his body temperature is melting the ice and snow around him. His grip becomes slippery and he almost falls from the cliff. It's very dangerous because now he is carrying his sister.

But Leo isn't that stupid, so he finds a way immediately. He takes out his blades and uses them as climbing tools. He stabs his blades into the cliff, so he won't lose his grip anymore. His speed also increases while the risk of falling decreases.

Leo reaches the top quite fast and sees an old castle there. He walks toward the castle while sheathing his blades. The snow around him melts because he creates flames around his feet to keep the temperature high enough for his sister but not burn her.

"Excuse me? Doctor, I need your help," shouts Leo after entering the opened gate.

No one answers him even after he shouts a few more times. So he enters the castle while calling the doctor, but there's still no answer. Then he finds a room and enters it even though he thinks it's not polite. His sister needs a warm place, so he ignores that unpoliteness.

Leo puts Nami on the bed and covers her with a blanket. Then he goes around to find the doctor, but there is no one in the castle. He knows someone lives here because this place is in a good condition, so he assumes the doctor is away right now.

"Damn, maybe the doctor is in the village right now. I can't leave my sister alone, so let's just wait here. Hopefully, the doctor will return soon," says Leo while grabbing some snow.

Leo puts the snow in a bowl then he takes it to the room where Nami sleeps. He puts some snow in a small plastic bag and puts it on Nami's forehead to cool her fever. But he also keeps her body warm with a blanket and he turns his hand into a fire.

"Fever is really confusing. People are hot, but they need warmth at the same time. Hmm, I wonder how it actually feels to have a fever," says Leo curiously.

Strangely, Leo never had a fever even once since he was born. Maybe it's because of his good genetics from his father. But some people said it's because he is an idiot. Leo's brain is not as smart as Buggy, but he is still a genius in things like music and battle.

Well, Buggy had a fever once in the past which made him fail to reach Laugh Tale, but that also made the current him. In the past, he thought he was transported to Buggy's body. But now he thinks that he is the real Buggy who remembered his past life.

That might sound unimportant, but that made Buggy feel very relieved because that means he didn't kill the old Buggy, he just remembered who he was. He was burdened by guilt before, but that has disappeared now, and that allowed him to grow even further even after being such a monster.

Anyway, Leo is an idiot in a sense, but he is also a genius. Luffy, Sanji, Zoro, and Usop, the other boys are also like that. So they are actually similar and it might be the reason why they become close real quick.

Leo keeps taking care of his sister while waiting for the doctor. Meanwhile, his crewmates are searching for the doctor in the village, but they haven't found her. Luffy and Sanji who were chasing Leo are in trouble now.

The 2 of them are blocked by some giant fat rabbits that stand on 2 feet. Leo also met them, but he got past them by shooting himself forward with his fire rocket technique. He tried to use it to climb the super steep mountain, but he couldn't because he still can't use his fire to fly.

Leo's mastery over his devil fruit is still not high enough. Well, it's not bad actually, but he still lacks power and energy. If he gets stronger, he may be able to fly like Ironman using his fire ability, which will be very cool.

Anyway, Luffy and Sanji are stopped by the giant rabbit called Lapan. Other than those things, there is an avalanche too. Luckily, they don't bring Nami, so they can face the Lapan and avalanche calmly without any worries.

Leo is still very worried though because Nami doesn't get better at all. He is thinking of burning the small forest near the castle to attract the doctor's attention. But luckily he doesn't need to do that because the doctor finally returns.

The doctor is an old woman who rides a cart pulled by a reindeer. Surprisingly, Robin also comes with them, so Leo assumes that Robin found the doctor and told her about Nami. Leo immediately goes out and calls the doctor to treat his sister ASAP.

"Are you the doctor? I'm sorry for intruding on your place without permission. But my sister needs your help, so please forgive me for now and help my sister. I will do anything you want later, but please help her," says Leo while prostrating.

The old doctor smirks seeing that and says, "You are much more polite than I thought. I won't punish you for entering my place without permission because of your politeness. But I'll still take that offer, hihihihi. Now, let's see what kind of disease that made you this worried."

They enter the castle and the old doctor checks Nami's condition. She is very surprised when she finishes diagnosing Nami.

"How long has she got sick?" asks the doctor, Kureha.

"Around 4 days," says Robin.

"You are lucky, 2 more days and she will not be here with you," says Kureha.

Leo & Robin are very surprised because they never thought Nami's illness is this serious. Kureha then asks them a few questions to make sure that she is right. Then she takes medicine in a small bottle before injecting it into Nami.

"She will be fine now, only needs rest," says Kureha.

"Are you sure?" asks Leo worriedly.

"Yeah, that medicine is the only cure for that prehistoric disease. You are lucky I still have that because it is very rare nowadays," says Kureha while looking at Leo.

She knows Leo still has some doubts because his sister's life is at stake here. So Kureha says, "I can bet my life on this if you want, so don't worry, she will be fine."

"I will decide that after she gets better," says Leo seriously.

Kureha just shrugs her shoulders and leaves the room. Robin follows her while Leo stays there watching Nami.

"Please don't mind him, he is just very worried about his sister," says Robin.

"I know, that's why I don't say anything else. Those eyes, he will really kill me if his sister doesn't heal. This is one of the few times I ever felt such fear in my 139 years of life. Is he your Captain?" asks Kureha while smiling.

"No, he is not the Captain, it's someone else," says Robin.

Kureha is really surprised when she hears that. "How can someone like him isn't the Captain? Just what kind of person can be the Captain of that sleeping beast?"

"You will see him soon. Though you might still be confused even after seeing the Captain's quality," says Robin.

Robin understands why Kureha is so surprised because even she knows that Leo isn't the type of person who wants to stand below others. That's why she was confused about why he joined a crew, not leading one himself. He has the power and charisma to do so, but he chose to sail under someone else's flag.

That mystery is for Leo to answer, but Leo is now sleeping. He has seen that Nami is getting better now, so he feels very relieved that he sleeps. His sleeping position is very unique because he can sleep while standing, which makes Kureha & Robin surprised.

Nami who has woken up says, "He has done this since we were kids. We were often punished by our mother to stand outside for hours after doing some naughty things. Leo then developed an ability to sleep while standing because of that."

"What a strange ability to have," says Kureha while checking Nami's body temperature just by touching her forehead.

Sometime later, Leo finally wakes up, but he doesn't see her sister on the bed. He looks around and sees Luffy outside the castle through the windows. So he peeks out and sees Nami there looking all fine, making him very relieved.

But then he realizes that his crewmates are fighting against some people. Leo rushes outside to see what happens and helps his crewmates. He arrives right on time to catch a strange black ball that almost hits Nami.

"Afro hair?" asks Leo while raising an eyebrow.

Some more afro hair balls fly toward him and sticks on his body. Leo is trying to kbock them off, but he can't, and they suddenly burn when the afro man's partnet shoots a fire arrow. The man gulps his saliva when he sees Leo doesn't get affected by the fire at all.

"You wanna hit my sister with these things then burn them? It seems you are tired of living," says Leo pissedly.

Sanji and Luffy look at the afro man while pretending to pray because he won't last long after angering Leo. There is one thing the crew knows well about Leo, he never tolerated anyone who endangers his family members.

Leo shoots himself forward and reaches the afro man very fast. He grabs the man's face and slams the afro guy onto the ground. Leo's body releases a lot of flames and he melts the snow around them, scaring the afro man greatly.

"Don't even try to hurt my sister," says Leo before punching the afro man's face really hard with a fire fist, knocking the guy out.

Leo then looks at the other enemies and bumps his fists, "You were disturbing my sleep, bastards."
