Chapter 282 Betting on the New Era
...
in a few days
Night time.
The steel gate of the Bird's Nest opened and the Ming Wang quickly sailed into the inner harbor.
inside the castle
Gel was still sleeping soundly in his room. Next to him, Weevil, who liked to sleep on the floor, was scratching his belly and snoring.
"Da da da!"
There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the room, followed by a slight knock on the door.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Captain! Captain Gur!"
Weibull looked up, then fell back after realizing it was one of his own.
Hearing Kokoro's voice, Gel's heart skipped a beat and he jumped up from the bed. He was not drowsy, but instantly lost all sleepiness because he realized that Kokoro must have had an accident when he called him at this time.
"Granny Kokoro, what happened?"
Ger opened the door and asked anxiously.
"The kids are back. Something unexpected happened. Franky was injured. We want you to come over and take a look..."
"Go! Where is the person?"
Gel rushed forward and asked without looking back.
"Everyone is already in Mr. Kulokas's clinic."
Kokoro hurried to follow.
...
When Gel hurried over, he saw that everyone had gathered in Kurokas's clinic. Fortunately, the small castle was spacious enough and did not seem crowded.
Even Instructor Barrett rushed over to check the situation.
"Captain Gul!"
Bia, Bingshan, Enelu and other little kids saw Captain Gel rushing over in his pajamas and slippers. They called out to him and then stood quietly by with depressed expressions.
Gel nodded without saying anything. He walked in with a frown on his face and a serious expression.
My heart was pounding, afraid of hearing bad news.
"I'm sorry, Captain. It's because I didn't take good care of them that this accident happened!"
As the team leader, Ajin was the first to stand up and speak. Brook also stood up, but was interrupted by Ger before he could open his mouth.
Gel reached out and pressed Ajin's hedgehog head again, indicating that neither of them should admit their mistakes and take responsibility for the time being.
At the moment, he just wanted to understand the situation as quickly as possible.
On the operating table, Kurokas was examining Franky with a frown on his face.
"Captain, you can't blame Captain Ajin and Brook. I got hurt accidentally! And I'm fine now. You really don't need to worry so much. Hahaha!"
Hearing that Captain Gel was coming, Franky, who was lying on the bed, quickly raised his head and started to explain for Ajin. He also shouted to Gel excitedly:
"Captain, come and see my newly invented mechanical arm. It's super cool! Just as cool as the mecha warrior in the comic book you gave me!"
"Be quiet and don't move!"
Kurokas pushed his head back and said.
Seeing that Franky was heartless and in good mental state, Gel breathed a sigh of relief. He walked to the bed and found that this guy's entire right hand had turned into a steel mechanical arm.
"How's it going, Mr. Kurokas?"
Tom and Kokoro asked worriedly.
After a careful inspection, Kurokas shook his head and said:
"If he had come back for treatment right after the injury, there might have been a way. But now his arm can't be restored to normal. This guy is really cruel to himself. He directly transformed his entire right hand into a mechanical arm, not just a simple prosthesis."
Even the ship's doctor Kurokas said that there was no way to recover. Everyone became even more depressed after hearing this, and the atmosphere in the room became a little depressing.
Instead, Captain Gel was the first to laugh. Seeing that it was not a particularly serious situation, based on his understanding of Franky, Gel felt that it was nothing.
Isn't it just a mechanical arm?
This is too easy for the cyborg Franky.
Then Gol said jokingly:
"Haha, what's wrong with you? Are you also following others and betting your right arm on the new era?"
Although no one knew what Captain Gill meant, they could hear his relaxed and optimistic mood, and the depressing atmosphere in the room became much better.
"Captain, when we were searching for treasure on the pirate ship, Franky accidentally opened an exploding treasure chest and injured his right hand. We gave him medicine and the injury stopped, but he may have damaged the nerves and lost sensation in his right hand. We wanted to bring him back for treatment quickly, but the ship was already on its way back, and then..."
With red eyes, Bi Ya told everyone the whole story.
What happened later was that Franky, who was strong-willed, insisted on continuing the voyage, not wanting everyone's adventure to end so hastily because of him. He said that it was okay, but no one believed him. He then said that he had a way to restore his arm, but when everyone woke up the next day they found out that the way he said was to directly transform their hand into a robotic arm!
I have to say this move was very Franky, but it scared the others.
"I'm really fine, everyone. Look how flexible my mechanical hand is. It's much stronger than before, and I can even shoot bullets in the palm of my hand! I also installed a light, so it can be used as a flashlight when it gets dark! Haha! It's so cool. I originally wanted to modify my left hand, but now seeing your reactions, I don't dare to do it anymore."
Franky said as he sat up from his hospital bed and fiddled with his robotic arm like he was showing off a new toy.
"You idiot! You made everyone so worried! And you act like nothing happened!"
Bingshan punched him on the head and cursed.
Everyone gave this rebellious teenager who had no self-awareness a lecture, and their saliva almost drowned Franky completely.
"Okay, okay, as long as everyone is okay."
Gel stopped everyone, then gave Franky a thumbs up and said, "I'm just watching the fun."
"One more thing to add, I also think the robotic arm is pretty cool."
"Waaaaa! Captain! You are the only one who understands the romance of robots!"
Franky, who was recognized, jumped off the bed excitedly and hugged Gel's thighs and cried.
"Captain, you can't indulge him any longer. This guy has begun to get carried away!"
Iceberg pulled Franky, trying to pull him off Gel's legs.
"Haha, these are just minor issues. He can modify his own mechanical arm at such a young age. I really have to praise him for his talent. Maybe Franky is a genius in mechanical modification!"
Ger praised with a smile without hesitation.
Children need encouraging education, so that they can lose themselves in the praise.
"Woo woo woo! Captain! You are so touching! Woo woo woo! Huh~huh~"
Franky was so moved that he burst into tears. He pulled Gel's pajamas and started blowing his nose. If he wasn't half injured, Gel really wanted to kick him to death.
"How can you call a captain like you! Be polite, you bastard!"
"Stupid iceberg, it's just a catchphrase. A man like the captain wouldn't mind such a small matter. I respect Captain Gill in my heart!"
"Uh hahaha!"
Seeing his two beloved disciples quarreling vigorously again, Tom also laughed happily.
