Chapter 673: A Call from Dorag
Robin's words made Crocodile feel relieved. Based on his understanding of Robin, he really thought that Robin would accept Vic's invitation, because Robin had come this far by betraying his partners and captain. Now that he had the protection of a strong man like Vic, he would no longer have to wander around.
With Wick's strength and status, he doesn't need Robin's bounty at all, so there is no deception. He was able to protect Robin from the pursuit of the World Government, so Crocodile was still very surprised at what Robin said.
He began to believe what Robin said, because if the rumors were true, Robin would definitely accept Vic's invitation, because that would be the best choice that fits the rumored son of the devil.
But since Robin is unwilling to leave, he has hope of getting that ancient weapon. Once he gets that ancient weapon, he will no longer be afraid of Vic. That is a powerful weapon that can sink an island with one shot. Even Vic will find it difficult to resist. With the ancient weapon, he will not be afraid of anyone!
"Okay! It seems that I am not that lucky right now. If you can't stay under him anymore, come to me again, anytime! My pirate group always welcomes you! Via! Let's go."
Vic didn't continue to invite, this sentence was enough, he glanced at Crocodile and took Olivia out of the VIP room without even taking the chips.
Although Vic didn't take the chips, Crocodile would not think that Vic didn't want the money. Maybe Vic really didn't want it, but you couldn't really not give it, otherwise Vic would be unhappy. Ruining the rain banquet would be the lightest punishment, and he might even be beaten half to death. So Crocodile quickly asked someone to send money to Vic. As for how much money, it was definitely much more than the chips on the gambling table.
Vic was the one who directed what happened today. Since Robin was unwilling to go with them, they had to at least ensure her safety here with Crocodile.
With Wick's invitation, Crocodile would not dare to hurt Robin easily. He could not bear Wick's anger. This was also a guarantee. Moreover, Robin now also has the observation Haki, so the ending would definitely be very different.
Vic took Olivia back to Titan Island. On the way, they passed through Punk Hazard, but it had become an abandoned island filled with poisonous gas.
Vic knew that Caesar Clown had fallen out with Vegapunk, and Caesar wanted to take over the research institute alone. However, with his strength, it would be impossible for him to do so under normal circumstances, as it was the property of the World Government.
So Caesar could only use his devil fruit to release the poison, and Vegapunk and other researchers and navy people had to leave.
Vic knew that things that happened without his involvement would most likely follow their original trajectory. The butterfly effect could not easily change everything. Many things had their own correctness.
As long as Vic is not continuously involved, things will return to their original track, just like the gas leak incident on the island of Punk Hazard. Vic once guarded this place, but he left not long after, and his influence here will gradually disappear!

"Vic! I heard from the old man that you are very skilled in medicine? Is this true?"
Vic had just returned to Titan Island after training on Thunder Island when he received a call from Dragon.
Not many people knew about Victor's superb medical skills. Apart from the members of the Thunder God Pirates, the only people who knew about it were Gion, Kake, and the marines who were on Garp's warship.
After Vic left the navy, a lot of information about him was blocked, at least no one was allowed to talk about him openly. Compared to his medical skills, the marines at the headquarters were more willing to talk about Vic's powerful combat ability and some of the things he had done in private.
Therefore, the fact that Vick had excellent medical skills did not cause any waves in the Navy. It was only after Drago heard about it from Garp that he called to inquire about it.
"Yes! My medical skills are indeed pretty good. As long as I am still alive, I can help you."
Vic's tone was matter of course. Although he didn't know why Dorag called him to ask about this matter, it must be related to saving people. He supported Dorag's revolutionary cause, so he didn't say anything humble, for fear of misunderstanding and thus causing trouble.
In fact, Dragon also heard his old man say it once by chance. The old man highly praised Vic's medical skills. It was not easy for the old man to praise him, otherwise he would go directly to Vegapunk. However, Vegapunk worked for the World Government and did not have as much freedom and convenience as Vic. So after thinking about it, he decided to get to know Vic first.
Dorag asked Vic about medical skills not for himself, but because he met a big bear on the sea who was searching the world for a cure for Pony's Jade Scale terminal disease.
Last year, Bonnie was finally diagnosed with jade scales and was told that he would not live past the age of ten. Bonnie is already six years old this year and he only has a few more years to live. Big Bear went out to sea last year after learning about Bonnie's condition and the time he had left.
But he hasn't found a way to cure Bonnie yet. Today, he met Dragon by chance at sea, and the two former comrades naturally sat down and talked about their recent situation.
It was only then that Dragon found out that Bonnie had the same terminal illness as Ginny, and Big Bear had been unable to find a cure. The first person he thought of was Vegapunk, and then he remembered what the old man said about Vic knowing medical skills. After thinking about the pros and cons, he chose to find Vic first.
"Then can you come to the Kingdom of Solbe? Big Bear's daughter Bonnie is sick! Very seriously!"
When Dorag heard Vic's confident and calm words, he immediately believed it a lot more. Coupled with his old man's praise, he completely trusted him.
No matter what aspect your old man is in, it must be difficult to get him, and Vic is not a boastful person. He has basically done what he said. So just go find Vic directly and talk about Vegapunk later.
Dorag has no idea now that his current choice has changed the future destiny of Big Bear and Bonnie. It can also be said that Vic's appearance in this world has changed their destiny.
If it weren't for Vic, Dragon would have asked Big Bear to ask Vegapunk to heal Bonnie, and then he would have fallen into the conspiracy of the Five Elder Stars Satan. In order to save Bonnie, Big Bear would have agreed to Satan's conditions and would have been transformed into an emotionless killing machine, and in the end even his consciousness would have been wiped out!
And because of Satan's condition, Bonnie will never see his gentle father who loves him again. When he sees his father again, he will just be a cold machine without emotions and consciousness. Bonnie's whole life will fall into darkness and he will be unable to extricate himself!
Of course, now that Vic is in this world, Satan’s conspiracy naturally cannot continue, and Big Bear and Pony’s happy life will continue!
"Okay! We'll meet at Big Bear's church!"
