Chapter 674 Diagnosis
Vic had already heard about Pony's disease from Dorag. It was Big Bear who told Dorag. Although Dorag didn't know what the disease was, he had to tell Vic, who was a doctor.
When Vic was studying bioelectricity, he read almost all the medical books he got on Magnetic Drum Island. Naturally, he knew what kind of terminal illness Jade Scale was, a disease of lack of vitality caused by an ancient virus.
After this ancient jade scale virus invades the human body, it will use the vitality in human cells as nutrients to reproduce a large number of offspring viruses. The excretions of this virus will gather and accumulate inside the human body. If there are too many excretions, they will grow out of the flesh like crystals.
This virus likes natural light. When the human body is exposed to natural light, the Jade Scale Virus in the body will become crazy active like taking Viagra, absorbing a large amount of vitality in the cells to reproduce offspring.
More viruses will also produce more excrement, and more excrement will soon grow out of the skin from various parts of the human body like crystals, making the whole person look extremely terrifying.
If natural light is blocked, the virus will still plunder life and reproduce, but it will be much slower than when exposed to natural light. However, no matter how slow it is, there will be a time limit.
When the Jade Scale Virus multiplies to a certain extent in the human body, the human body, which has been consuming vitality for a long time, can no longer meet their needs. They will desperately snatch the little remaining vitality in the human body. This reckless competition will cause the human body to die quickly in a very short time!
There is no specific medicine left to treat this ancient virus that has long disappeared. Even if there are treatment methods recorded in medical books, it is now impossible to find all the herbs in the prescriptions, as the herbs disappeared along with the virus.
But this virus actually appeared in the holy land of Marijoa, which reminded Vic of Roger's illness and Wendy's illness. It seemed that these Celestial Dragons had collected all the extinct viruses and were even conducting secret research in case of emergency!
These Tianlong people are really a bunch of demons. This incident even reminded Vic of the news in the newspapers about several countries that were destroyed because of infectious diseases. Were they also the work of Tianlong people? It was chilling to think about it!
However, this disease may be an incurable terminal illness for others, but it may just be a minor cold for Vic.
If the disease or terminal illness is caused by internal body pathology, it will take some effort for Vic to treat it, but the disease or terminal illness caused by external virus and bacteria invasion is really Vic's strong point.
His lightning ability is aimed at life. Viruses and bacteria also have life, and the life force is not very strong. Vic's lightning ability is completely against them.
After all, Vic's lightning can penetrate deep into every cell of the human body to perform micro-manipulation. This is an advantage that no one else has, not even Vegapunk's super brain. It took Vegapunk several years to cure Bonnie, but Vic can cure him in a very short time. This is what it means to be specialized!
"You must be Bonnie! You're so cute! I'm your father's friend, and I'm here to heal you!"
Vic was the first to arrive at the Kingdom of Solbe. Even though the big bear had spatial abilities, he was not as fast as him. The New World Ocean was between the South China Sea and the West China Sea. Vic crossed the calm zone between the South China Sea and the New World and quickly arrived at the South China Sea. His speed was really fast.
After Vic arrived at the Kingdom of Solbe, he did not wait for Big Bear and Dorag, but went directly to the church where Big Bear once lived. The windows and several doors of the church were sealed tightly.
Vic used his Observation Haki to sense that there were three people in the church, two adults and a child, and the two adults were playing with the child.
He was very familiar with the aura of those two adults. They were the two people he locked onto with his Observation Haki when he came to the Kingdom of Solbe last time. It was with their help that Vic was able to contact Dragon and Kuma. These two people also became Bonnie's pirate partners later.
Vic pushed open the door of the church and walked in. He ignored the two adults and asked the pink-haired little girl gently.
The little girl was attracted by the sound of the door opening. She might have thought that her father had come back to see her, so she stopped playing and looked at the door with a smile and anticipation.
But the person who came in was not her father. Vic could see that the smile and expectation on the little girl's face froze. It had been almost a year since Big Bear went out to find a cure for Bonnie's terminal illness. Bonnie naturally missed him and wanted to travel with him, to Sky Island, Fishman Island, etc.! She was naturally disappointed to see that it was not her father who came in!
"Toz! Yuyu! Is he really Dad's friend?"
Bonnie had never met Vic, but she did not sense any malice from Vic, only a sense of close kindness. This was something that humans could really feel, especially children. Children were more sensitive to this kind of emotion that carried subjective good and evil. So she wanted to ask these two uncles who grew up with her parents, if he was really her father's friend, they must know him.
"That's it!"
Yu Yu murmured, Toz and Yu Yu naturally knew Vic, even if they didn't know him before they should know him now. Vic's fame is too great now, it would be self-deception to say they didn't know him.
Yu Yu still remembered that the last time he met Vic, it was they who exposed Big Bear and Ginny, but he didn't know what happened afterwards. He only knew that Vic finally left the Kingdom of Solbe, and Big Bear and Ginny were not in danger.
So when Vic said he was Big Bear's friend, he didn't refute it. If he was an enemy, would Big Bear and Ginny have been able to leave safely that time?
They knew how powerful Vic was. Moreover, when Vic left the Kingdom of Solbe last time, he went to the palace to find King Beckley and heard about some of the wonders that occurred at that time, which made this bad king dare not exploit the civilians too much. In the end, they all had to thank the current Shichibukai!
"Is it? Can you really cure me? I want to travel with my dad! Can you help me realize this wish?"
Bonnie is only 6 years old now, and she doesn't quite understand whether the word "can be" means affirmation or negation, but when she feels the kindness in Vic, she still chooses to believe Vic.
She has lived in this church ever since she could remember, and her yearning for the outside world exists every day, and this yearning is growing day by day. Now that she has a doctor friend who claims to be her father, she naturally has infinite expectations.
"Of course! Once I heal you, you can travel anywhere with Big Bear!"
After Vic finished speaking, he closed the church door, walked to Bonnie, squatted down, put his hand on Bonnie's shoulder, and then used his thunder ability to release bioelectricity to invade Bonnie's body to investigate. Although it was already known that the disease was caused by a virus, necessary examinations still had to be done.
After examination, Vic discovered that the virus in Bonnie's body was in balance with her vitality. It was probably the middle stage of the terminal illness, Jade Scale, and crystals had already grown on her body's epidermis.
If Bonnie is not treated, her body will become weaker and weaker, and more crystals will grow on her body surface. Vic doesn't know how Bonnie survived in the original book, but if it is delayed for a while, there will be very few people in this world who can cure Bonnie. Of course, Vic can definitely do it.
