Chapter 248: Chapter 248: The All-Rounder
The rest of the crew on Whitebeard’s ship finally snapped out of their shock.
Exclamations erupted all around.
“Badass! I can’t think of any other words to describe it. Is this what Vir is like? Absolutely terrifying!”
“In my life, I’ve only respected two people—Pops, and now, Vir.”
“Eek—that sound… I can’t even imagine the sheer psychological damage Shiki must be suffering right now.”
“Salute!”
“Salute…”
Everyone turned their gazes toward the Golden Lion, eyes filled with reverence.
You, sir, are a legend!
A true legend, right after the one who gave us the “ying ying ying”.
So strong…
And what about Vir’s side?
[Ding! Congratulations, Host! You’ve earned 1,000,000 negative points!]
The System chimed in.
But this time, Vir wasn’t surprised.
He only felt one thing—utterly deserved.
Worth it. Absolutely worth every bit of those million points!
The description of the Vinro-Blade wasn’t wrong at all.
It said it would unleash a weird scream.
Whether it was angry or not didn’t matter.
But weird? Absolutely nailed it.
Weird enough to make even the Golden Lion let out that kind of sound.
Would any future patients undergoing this treatment be able to withstand it?
Just thinking about having to hear that sound again made Vir feel a little distressed.
Because it was just too much.
But the Negative Points came in so absurdly fast.
Truly, it was pain and pleasure intertwined.
At this moment, Rayleigh, who had been silent the whole time, stood up.
With a complicated expression, he slowly walked up to Shiki.
He patted his shoulder and said meaningfully, “Don’t worry… you’re not the first, and you won’t be the last.”
[Ding! Congratulations, Host! You’ve earned 180,000 negative points!]
Despite Rayleigh’s words, Shiki clearly didn’t feel comforted at all.
As for the others nearby, Chopper didn’t think much of it.
He just found the sound a bit strange—not something a man should make.
Other than that, he had no other thoughts.
Luffy? Even less of a reaction.
But the women (except Robin) were practically dying inside.
They could hear the implications in that sound.
And those implications were way too obvious.
Anyone could tell.
But this also made them doubt—
Did Vir’s treatment really make people’s bodies feel… that way?
To the point of making those kinds of noises?
This was just too ridiculous.
Was that blade really that magical?
They couldn’t help but wonder.
Robin, however, was completely unfazed.
Not because she was dense.
Not because she didn’t understand.
But because she had seen too much.
She had witnessed far too many bizarre things from Vir…
This? Totally acceptable.
But right now, there was one person who could not accept it at all.
Jina stared at Shiki, whose face was beet red, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Her father… had just made that kind of sound.
To Jina, this was nothing short of shattering her entire worldview.
She couldn’t even imagine her father ever—
Seeing her utterly broken expression, Marco spoke up to comfort her:
“You lost the bet. That money’s ours now.”
The moment he said that—
*Thud*
Jina collapsed to the floor.
But she had no words left.
She could only stare blankly ahead, her eyes hollow.
Like a gambler who had just lost everything.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host! You’ve earned 250,000 negative points!]
As soon as Marco finished speaking, Vir received yet another notification.
Another massive wave of Negative Points flooded in.
In just this short time, over 1.5 million had been earned.
This was just… brutal.
Shiki, at this point, had completely given up on speaking.
He was broken.
In front of so many people…
What had he just done?!
Right now, he wished he could crawl into a hole and disappear.
This was worse than death!
The redness on his face refused to fade.
In fact, it was only getting redder.
It was clear—
He had suffered a complete mental collapse.
Vir had also started noticing a pattern.
These top-tier fighters usually didn’t generate massive amounts of Negative Points from extreme physical treatments.
But if you attacked their pride?
That’s when the real jackpot hit.
In short—they cared about their image.
Way too much.
If he exploited that, the points would never run dry.
Vir felt like he had stumbled upon a goldmine.
He silently vowed—
For those proud warriors, he would create the perfect environment for humiliation.
Develop the best tools for embarrassment.
Only then could he achieve maximum negative points.
Just imagining how much Akainu would give him…
Or Shanks—the man who cared about his image more than anyone else in the pirate world.
If he could set the stage right and break him…
Vir would never have to worry about negative points again.
Just as everyone was still reeling from the earlier spectacle—
*Plop… plop… plop…*
A thick, paste-like substance began oozing out from the spots where Vir had stabbed Shiki.
The only difference from actual wall putty was the color.
*Splat. Splat. Splat.*
The “putty” fell to the ground, onto the chair.
And as it peeled away, Shiki’s body visibly withered.
He wasn’t particularly bulky to begin with, but now, it seemed like even his muscles had been shattered.
Leaving him looking gaunt and skeletal.
The sight left everyone stunned once more.
What the hell was happening?
Even Vir was a little taken aback.
He’d never used this ability before—he had no idea it’d be like this.
But judging from the current situation, the shattered body parts turned into this… paste.
So then, how would he remold it back into the desired shape?
After a brief thought, Vir had his answer.
If it looked like putty…
Then he’d just treat it like putty!
And how exactly?
Vir slowly opened his medical kit.
Then pulled out a set of tools any construction worker would recognize—
A putty knife, a trowel, a scraper, a mixer, putty board… and a bucket.
Seeing these bizarre tools, for some reason—
Shiki’s heart filled with dread once more.
Vir then took out his signature, germ-covered gloves.
As he slipped them on, he grinned and said:
“Don’t panic. Dizziness is normal.”
“Before I became a doctor, I was a veterinarian. Before that, a welder. And before that… I dabbled in a bit of home renovation!”
Shiki: “STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME—!!!”
