One Piece: A Guide for Ordinary Players

Neptune burst into laughter: "Speaking of which, Vice Admiral Garp, you should tone it down a bit. You're insulting the Celestial Dragons."

Garp shrugged indifferently and gestured for the representatives of the Ryugu Kingdom to board the dog-headed warship, taking them to the surface of the sea.

Robert was obviously the one who prevented Princess Shirahoshi from going to Mary Geoise. For a giant and beautiful mermaid princess to go to the lair of the Celestial Dragons, who were full of perverts, would be like a lamb being led to the slaughter.

It's not about victim blaming; it's that Robert thinks it's just that if someone knows Mary Geoise is full of evil Celestial Dragons, and that Shirahoshi would definitely be harassed by them if she went there, or even risk being captured and enslaved, and still stubbornly did it, then that's just plain crazy. Only on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) does this kind of brain-dead logic prevail.

So when Uta finished the task assigned by Robert and planted various thunder beliefs in the minds of everyone in the Dragon Palace Kingdom, he casually invited Princess Shirahoshi to go out with him.

As for the destination, it was naturally Robert's stronghold, Sky Island.

The warship surfaced and sailed directly to the vicinity of the bubble slide in the Sabaody Archipelago. The bubble slide, which used to transport tourists across the red earth every day, had been shut down during the World Conference and was only used to transport representatives of member states attending the World Conference.

King Neptune and his family boarded the slide. The princes were all thrilled to see such a magnificent view for the first time. The third prince, Fanchexing, who had been closest to Shirahoshi since childhood, couldn't help but say, "If Shirahoshi could see this view, she would definitely shout with excitement."

The Second Prince, Huang Xing, smiled and patted his brother on the shoulder: "No need to feel sorry for her, Miss Uta invited her to go to an even higher place..."

A large slap landed on the back of Huang Xing's head. The eldest prince, Shark Star, lowered his voice and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Huangxing also realized what was happening and quickly shut up. Garp, who looked like he hadn't woken up yet, acted as if he hadn't heard his brothers' conversation and continued stuffing senbei into his mouth. However, his eyes, hidden under the dog-head hat, lit up for a moment.

More and more kingdoms are arriving in Mary Geoise. Although there are more than 170 member states of the World Government, only 50 countries can participate in the World Conference.

Apart from a few initial member countries, such as Dressrosa and Alabasta, other countries that joined later will take turns attending the meeting.

Many delegations from various countries arrived in Mary Geoise, but only the King was allowed to enter the heart of Pangaea to participate in decision-making; the rest of the delegations were kept in the reception area.

Without Princess Shirahoshi, the most eye-catching beauty, the Celestial Dragons naturally had little interest in princesses of other ordinary races. After all, they were just beautiful women, and they could have as many as they wanted. These princesses were just of higher status.

However, no matter how noble they are, they can't be higher than the Celestial Dragons. Moreover, in recent years, there have been princesses from small countries that have been destroyed who have become slaves of some Celestial Dragon. Therefore, people like Vivi and Rebecca have not been harassed.

A short, elderly woman walked slowly down the main road leading to the Celestial Dragons' residential area. Several guards spotted her from afar and immediately stepped forward to stop her: "Who goes there! Stop! No one is allowed to come near here!"

Hearing the guard's reprimand, the old lady slowly raised her head, revealing a smiling face full of wrinkles.

The guards of Mary Geoise had long been trained to remember the members of each delegation attending the World Conference in order to avoid offending their distinguished guests.

Upon seeing the old woman's face, someone immediately recognized her: "It's Queen Connie from the Kingdom of Sobel! Please wait a moment. This is the Land of the Gods, and you cannot pass through. Please return to the city."

The old lady just chuckled and didn't say anything, acting like she was deaf and blind and couldn't understand, but she was determined to go in anyway.

But this time, there was no incident where Princess Shirahoshi was targeted and Charles Saint tried to abduct her, so naturally, there was no incident where Lao Cai and his friends bravely beat Charles Saint into a pulp.

Since Saint Charles was not injured, the scene where he was carried into the Land of the Gods by a giant slave for treatment did not occur. Consequently, the Queen Mother, disguised as Bonnie, could not sneak into the Land of the Gods amidst the chaos as in the original story.

Although the guards couldn't hurt the old lady because of her status, they were able to stay with her there indefinitely.

Bonney tried everything, from gentle persuasion to threats, but to no avail. She could only turn away dejectedly, preparing to find another way to infiltrate the Celestial Dragons' residence.

As she rounded a building corner, the elderly woman who had been moving at a snail's pace suddenly became agile and nimble, her body concealed in a blind spot, revealing the curvaceous figure of a young, beautiful woman.

"Damn it! The security is so tight, how are we supposed to sneak in?"

"Haha, why don't you use the favor I owed you back then here?"

The sudden laughter startled Bonnie so much she almost jumped. She quickly looked up and saw Robert's smiling face.

Bonnie relaxed instantly. Although their first meeting in the Sabaody Archipelago wasn't pleasant, and Robert later forced her to run away to a dangerous place like Marineford, he promised to do her a big favor afterwards.

As Robert's fame at sea has grown over the years, the value of this favor has naturally increased as well.

Bonnie gave a smug, smirk: "You're dreaming! You owe me such a huge favor, and you think you can just pay it back so easily?"

"This time, I'll just charge you some interest at most!"

Chapter 22: Five years without loss, three years of huge profit

Bonnie is just a minor girl. Although she looks 24 years old, she is actually only eleven or twelve years old.

Robert found her trying so hard to act like an adult cute and couldn't resist teasing her: "Never mind then, I'll save up a big sum and pay it off completely. You can figure it out yourself this time."

Bonnie panicked when she heard this. What could she do? It was unlikely that she would be able to enter Mary Geoise again.

Her purpose in going to sea was to find her father, Big Bear, but she always managed to miss him by sheer coincidence. Of course, Big Bear was also deliberately avoiding her.

Having already reached an agreement with the World Government and finally cured Bonney's illness, Kuma will not allow Bonney to fall into the hands of the World Government again because of him.

Two years ago in the Sabaody Archipelago, it was probably the closest Bonnie had come to a bear in all these years.

At that time, Kuma slapped the entire Straw Hat Pirates away with one slap each, but Bonney, sensing that Robert had ill intentions, had already slipped away beforehand.

When she learned that the bear had appeared on the island and rushed back, the bear had already disappeared. Then she walked right into Robert's trap and was conscripted to help Whitebeard perform a rejuvenation act at Marineford.

After separating from Robert, Bonney was captured by Blackbeard as usual. Then, just as Akainu, who had not yet left the Navy, was chasing Blackbeard, Bonney fell into the Navy's hands again.

This period lasted for more than a year, completely missing the time when the bear was guarding the ships in the Sabaody Archipelago.

After Law and his group blew up the underwater prison, Bonnie was able to escape.

Her pirate crew had been searching for Bonney and Kuma for years. Once Bonney escaped and started contacting her crew, she immediately learned that Kuma had been in the Sabaody Archipelago.

When they finally arrived, they encountered Luffy setting sail. Countless people on the island saw the Celestial Dragon riding Kuma to the Marine base, but what happened after that is unknown.

Bonney's last news was that Kuma had become a slave of the Celestial Dragons. Enraged, she immediately decided to infiltrate Mary Geoise, determined to rescue her father.

However, while there are opportunities to ascend to Mary Geoise, opportunities to infiltrate the Celestial Dragons' territory are far fewer. Bonney's greatest hope lies in the World Government Summit, held once every four years. If she misses this opportunity, she doesn't know how long she'll have to wait.

Seeing Robert about to leave, Bonnie gritted her teeth and shouted, "Fine! As long as you help me sneak into the Celestial Dragons' residence, I'll consider this favor repaid!"

Her shout was so urgent that she completely forgot that she was in the heavily guarded Mary Geoise, and patrolling guards immediately ran towards her at the sound.

Robert smiled and extended his hand to her: "Deal!"

The moment Bonnie's hand touched Robert's, the two of them vanished in a flash of lightning. By the time the patrolling guards rushed over, they had disappeared without a trace.

None of the guards dared to be careless. They had clearly heard a woman's voice shouting something about Celestial Dragons. Although they were too far away to hear exactly what she wanted to do, it concerned Celestial Dragons, so they couldn't be too careful.

The information was immediately disseminated, and the security force in Mary Geoise was raised to a new level.

At that moment, Robert and Bonnie were standing just behind the sentry post leading to the Land of the Gods.

"Alright, I've kept my promise. We're already in the Celestial Dragons' territory, so we're even now."

Bonnie gritted her teeth. Robert was an absolute bastard. He could have easily taken her further away, but instead he chose a position so close to the sentry post that he would be discovered if he spoke even slightly loudly.

But when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Bonnie grabbed Robert's sleeve angrily: "Push me a little further in!"

Robert grinned mischievously: "That's a different price. You just said you'd only need me to help you sneak in."

Bonnie gritted her teeth in hatred, but could only humiliatingly agree, "How about I owe you a favor instead!"

Robert laughed again: "Why didn't you say that earlier?"

He pulled Bonnie, and the two disappeared once again.

Robert and Bonnie sat atop a tall clock tower in a manor, pointing to the buildings below. "The manor we're in now is the property of the Purminger family. To the east lives the Roswald family, and a little further to the west is the Don Quixote family's manor."

“I know this place very well. As long as you agree to owe me another favor, I can take you anywhere you want to go.”

Bonnie pointed to the enormous castle further away: "Is that Pangaea City?"

Robert nearly choked on his saliva when he heard Bonnie's question. Although he now considered himself extremely strong and was familiar with Mary Geoise without the slightest fear, being able to roam freely in the Celestial Dragons' territory didn't mean he could casually show people around Pangaea. Im, that little sister, was no pushover.

"Stop asking about Pangaea City. Didn't you just want to sneak into the Land of the Gods? Pangaea City isn't in the area where these ordinary Celestial Dragons live. You only managed to sneak in because you owe me a favor. You're not just going to look at the scenery and then want to leave again, are you?"

Bonnie was just asking; before coming in, she hadn't really thought about how to find Big Bear here. Sitting on the tall tower overlooking this vast area, she realized just how difficult it was to find someone here.

Since she already owed Robert a favor, Bonnie decided to go all out: "I'll owe you another favor, can you help me find someone?"

Robert had only wanted to tease Bonnie because he saw her; what use was this favor from a minor? He immediately agreed.

"Tell me, who are you looking for?"

Bonney said with a serious expression, "Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

Robert looked troubled, and Bonnie asked nervously, "What? You can't do it?"

Robert nodded and said, "I really can't do that. Let's change the terms."

Bonnie was even somewhat desperate. Robert was already the most powerful person she knew. Among the supernovas who landed on Sabaody Archipelago in the same batch, only Robert was doing the best.

If even someone as capable as Robert says he can't find anyone, then what hope do I have of finding my father?

Just as Bonnie was pouting and about to cry, Robert said quietly, "Big Bear isn't here. You're asking me to find him here, aren't you making things difficult for me?"

Bonnie's eyes instantly brightened: "You mean you know where he is, right!"

Robert burst into laughter, not at all worried that his laughter would attract the guards: "Of course, because a month ago, I was the one who orchestrated his rescue from the Sabaody Archipelago!"

Bonnie burst into tears immediately, completely oblivious to the implication in Robert's words that he already knew her purpose and was deliberately teasing her.

"Take me to see him, please!"

Robert just thought Bonnie's adult act was cute and wanted to tease her, but her crying made him feel a little guilty.

"Don't cry, or people will think I'm bullying you."

Upon hearing the word "bullying," Bonnie instantly recalled being captured by Blackbeard two years ago, who threatened to make her his woman. Gritting her teeth, she said to Robert:

"Take me to see Big Bear! I'll be your woman!"

Robert: Don't mess with me, even the minimum is five years in prison or detention!

Chapter 23 One Piece World War

One Piece is a world of idealism, so most abilities are external manifestations of inner desires.

Although when Robert faced the so-called Thunder Rules, the first anchor point he was bound to was lust, this does not mean that he was necessarily a pervert without any bottom line. With mature beauties like Karina and Baby-5 around, he didn't bother with them, but instead chose to target a girl in her teens.

Robert immediately stopped Bonnie from seducing him, grabbed her, and vanished from the spot, appearing in a lavishly decorated room.

"Bonnie? Why did you bring her?"

The people in the room looked at Robert with strange expressions. Bonnie had no recollection of these people, but they seemed to know her quite well.

Why can't I come?

Robert chimed in with a laugh, "That's right, the little girl wants to find her father, why can't she come?"

A woman with a cigarette dangling from her lips frowned. "Big Bear isn't here either. We're here to gather information in Mary Geoise during the World Conference. Why did you drag Bonnie into this?"

Although Bonnie was actually quite young, she had spent a considerable amount of time at sea and had more experience than some adults. She immediately gleaned a lot of information from the woman's words: "You know where he is, don't you! Who are you!"

Robert stopped joking with her at this point and said seriously, "These are your father's comrades-in-arms, high-ranking cadres of the revolutionary army."
