Dr. Hiriluk's sacrifice.

Long Summary
After eating the Amiudake soup, Hiriluk feels much stronger. But while he was eating the medicine, a reaction happened in his lab. That was the reaction he was researching since so long ago. In joy after this miracle, he departs, suddenly telling Chopper to rest. He heads toward Dr. Kureha's house and begs her to complete two things, pretending he has not enough time to fulfill them: to continue his research on the Sakura powder and to teach Chopper medical knowledge so that he can become a good doctor. Kureha is angered by the favors and the request for them to be completed for free. She kicks Hiriluk out.

In town, people are desperate. The Isshi-20 are sick and there are no more doctors left to help them, the reasons for Hiriluk to hurry back to town. He is determined to cure the sick doctors and rushes toward the castle, despite the fact he is blocked by Wapol's soldiers.

Meanwhile, Kureha is worried, she does not understand why Hiriluk is in such hurry while he has still 2 weeks to live. When she rushes into his house, she encounters Chopper who reveals to her that the doctor is much better thanks to his mushroom soup. The old woman is in shock, the mushroom is a deadly poisonous mushroom and Hiriluk has only one hour left before he dies. Chopper does not understand, he shows the pirate sign who Hiriluk told him was a symbol of magic cure next to the mushroom picture he found in a book. Understanding the good intention of the reindeer, she tells him that he can do nothing without learning medical knowledge first and that Hiriluk has probably reached the castle so that he could die there.
