One Piece: A Guide for Ordinary Players

Robert was caught between the tremors and the magma. He used a blink to escape Akainu's attack range, and then began to summon lightning. While restraining Akainu and Blackbeard, he manipulated the electrical charges in the clouds, turning the white clouds into dark clouds.

Blackbeard was the first to attack, but less than a second later he realized that he was the last one to make a move.

Akainu's plan is to activate the volcano beneath Onigashima and turn it into a lava inferno.

Robert, on the other hand, quickly altered the weather, intending to transform the battlefield into a thundercloud-covered landscape.

Their first reaction after the battle began was not to attack the enemy, but to try to create a home-field advantage.

As a result, Blackbeard, who made the first move, was a beat slower.

Blackbeard dares not release the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit underground anymore. Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are mutually reinforcing. If he causes an earthquake now, he will only help Akainu to renovate his home turf first.

Almost instinctively, Blackbeard used his superhuman fighting instincts to unleash the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit into the sky, attempting to use the vibrations to dispel the already formed dark clouds.

At the same time, a vast darkness began to spread outwards from him, swallowing up the sand, rocks, and trees on the island.

The great battle had been going on for a long time. Two days and one night had passed since Blackbeard first landed on the island, and Akainu's attack on Blackbeard had lasted for almost half a day.

Even Robert's appearance at the three-way standoff occurred several hours ago, and such a commotion was enough to draw the world's attention to this place.

Countless eyes were cast toward this place. Pirates, marines, and even spies from various forces surrounded Onigashima, making a scene even bigger than when Luffy and his crew fought Kaido.

Fear was evident in everyone's eyes. Recently, only Robert had been active on the battlefield, and everyone had witnessed his extraordinary strength.

Since his defeat at Beehive Island a year ago, Blackbeard has not made a formal move for a long time, leading many to speculate whether he has been reduced to a second-rate fighter due to his injuries.

As for former Marine Admiral Akainu, he hasn't personally fought a proper battle in many years, and everyone's impression of him is still based on the Marineford War two years ago.

It is said that these three guys with a deep grudge are locked in a stalemate on Onigashima. All the predictions from various forces are that Robert will have to fight two against one, and Blackbeard and Akainu will go from a standoff to a forced alliance.

But at this moment, it seems that both Blackbeard and Akainu have strength that is no less than that of Robert, a Yonko in his prime!

Ghost Island was now divided into three layers: the sky was filled with Robert's lightning, lava was constantly erupting from the ground beneath our feet, and the world was completely swallowed by darkness.

Three powerful yet incompatible forces were locked in a stalemate, achieving a strange balance!

At the new naval headquarters, Aokiji frowned deeply. The Den Den Mushi in front of him hadn't rested since yesterday.

His three generals, along with veteran high-ranking officers such as Sengoku, Garp, and Tsuru, were all waiting for him to make a decision.

A special Den Den Mushi rang, and Aokiji frowned even more, but had no choice but to answer the phone.

A cold voice came from the other end of the phone: "Aokiji, send the entire army hidden on Fishman Island to the New World. While Blackbeard and Robert are fighting, make sure to wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

Aokiji and Sengoku exchanged a glance, seemingly expecting this order, but their anxious tones contrasted sharply with their calm expressions:

"Lord Nasujuro, the ambush on Fishman Island was prepared in case of a surprise attack by the Thunder Department. It's premature to withdraw now..."

The finance officer on the other end of the phone spoke in a chilling tone: "Even if your navy is stationed on Mermaid Island, has it contributed in the slightest to the food blockade of Mary Geoise?"

“We have reached an agreement with the King of Black Gold. All trade operations on Fishman Island will be handled by him, while security will be taken over by the CP department.”

"And they will use underworld methods to help Mary Geoise resolve its current troubles!"

Aokiji pretended to argue, but Nasujiro raised his voice eight octaves: "Aokiji! You Marines don't need to have your own ideas, you just need to follow orders!"

Aokiji reluctantly agreed, but the dejection on his face vanished the moment he hung up the phone:

"Then so be it!"

Chapter 30 What are you pretending to be, class monitor?

With a body as large as a giant, two horns that meander like a bull on its head, and the ability to transform into an Eastern dragon that can soar through the sky and dive into the earth, it's hard to imagine who the spy could be but Kaido and Luffy.

Sanji also looked solemn. After all, the shadow Kaido had left on everyone was too great. Although they had defeated him with the combined strength of everyone, who dared to say that Kaido would definitely die if he fell into the lava?

There's a saying: "You can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieve

The reason why everyone was able to defeat Kaido on Onigashima was because he was in the open while they were in the dark. A group of people plotted for a long time, went to his territory and wreaked havoc. In the end, they defeated this powerful enemy by taking advantage of his surprise.

But when that person realized he had been discovered, his first reaction was not to rush up and fight, but to turn around and transform into a dragon and escape into the clouds.

A powerful enemy lurking in the shadows, ready to plot at any moment, is far more difficult to deal with than one of the Four Emperors who are always out in the open.

However, given Luffy's personality, even if he knew that a powerful enemy like Kaido was lurking in the shadows, he would never back down an inch.

Instead, he became even more determined and charged into the abandoned giant's royal city, calling out to Sanji.

This city was enormous even for giants, but Loki explained it clearly to them: the key was kept in the royal treasury, so all they had to do was find the throne room.

Luffy and Sanji didn't want Lily to come along, but Lily was stubborn and rode her rabbit to keep up with them.

The structure of this royal city was relatively simple. The group walked around the corridors a few times, taking the main roads and focusing on the most magnificent and spacious halls. They soon found the huge throne that Loki had mentioned.

A strange rune was drawn on the floor in front of the throne. Luffy looked at it more and more familiar with it, while Sanji recognized it immediately:

"Why does this pattern look so much like the things the Five Elders created in Eghardt?"

Luffy suddenly realized: "That's it! This is the formation that old man used to summon the other four monsters!"

-----------------

The battle on Ghost Island has reached a fever pitch, with volcanoes erupting and lightning flashing.

But whether it's the scorching flames of magma or the blinding flashes of lightning, they will soon be swallowed up by endless darkness.

The battle on Ghost Island is completely invisible to outsiders; they can only determine whether their master is still alive by observing the fluctuations of the three elements.

It wasn't until these three top Logia-type Devil Fruit users started fighting each other that some people who were superstitious about the power of Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruits realized that Elemental-type users were still the most powerful among Devil Fruit users.

Mythical Zoan types can at most use certain natural forces, while Natural types are those extremely powerful forces themselves!

Robert skillfully maneuvered between Blackbeard and Akainu's attacks, occasionally launching harmless attacks at both of them, like a bystander.

Even while these two stamina monsters were desperately attacking, Robert would secretly take out some pre-prepared food from his food space and have a few bites. This would not only restore his stamina but also give him some buffs.

In the world of One Piece, great power is often accompanied by great consumption. Although Akainu and Blackbeard seem to be in a relaxed state now, Robert is certain that with his current stamina attribute of 200 points, he is by no means much weaker than the two of them.

Since I'm already hungry, the two of them must have also expended a lot of energy. I just need to use my speed advantage to keep moving around and eating. Even if I just rely on the tactic of stalling, I can wear them down.

In the original storyline, Akainu and Aokiji once fought for the position of Fleet Admiral for ten days without sleep. Robert believed that they could both go without sleep, but he absolutely did not believe that they could go without food!

Aside from the Green Bull with its Forest Fruit, which allows it to fight a protracted battle through photosynthesis, no one else can break the law of conservation of energy and keep outputting without replenishing their food intake!

Robert's high-profile appearance on Onigashima had its own purpose, which was not, as Blackbeard guessed, to kill him.

Therefore, Robert is currently the one least in a hurry to determine a winner; his attacks are only meant to create a big commotion, and the damage he inflicts on the two enemies is negligible.

Blackbeard and Akainu had already noticed this. When Robert fought them before, he clearly demonstrated his ability to imbue his lightning attacks with Haki.

The two of them studied this move for a long time after they returned, but no matter how talented they were, they had no clue how to combine the power of a Logia-type Devil Fruit with their own Haki.

Robert, on the other hand, simply uses lightning to strike them, without ever displaying any domineering power in his electric current, which is highly suspicious.

However, they wouldn't be so reckless as to take Robert's lightning attack head-on. In a fight, all's fair in war. What if Robert was deliberately letting them down so that he could suddenly add Haki to one of his attacks and seriously injure them?

Robert's feigned profundity only made the other two more wary, which pleased him and gave him extra energy to observe the details of the battlefield.

Blackbeard relied on the toughness of his Zoan-type Devil Fruit, as well as the fact that the Dark-Dark Fruit has a restraining effect on other Devil Fruit abilities, so he basically focused on dodging Robert's lightning and chose to withstand Akainu's magma.

As the battle progressed, Robert's mind stirred, and he noticed a small detail in Blackbeard's fighting.

He seems overly concerned about his left pocket!

Akainu's lava had already burned Blackbeard's clothes into rags, but any lava that flew towards his left pocket was either shattered by Blackbeard's punch or dodged to the side.

This small detail wasn't very noticeable at first, but it became more apparent when Blackbeard's clothes were tattered, with only his left trouser pocket remaining intact.

Robert narrowed his eyes, thinking that either Blackbeard's left leg had some weakness that couldn't be attacked, or he had some treasure hidden in his pocket that absolutely couldn't be damaged!

This pirate world isn't like traditional martial arts, so the concept of a "weak point" is a bit too far-fetched. Therefore, Robert is more inclined to believe that Blackbeard is keeping something important close to his body!

As Robert was deep in thought, his Observation Haki suddenly went into overdrive, warning him that Blackbeard had somehow managed to sneak up behind him under the cover of darkness.

At this moment, Blackbeard, with the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit wrapped around his hand, threw a crazy punch at Robert's back.

Robert immediately activated his Thor form, transforming his body into a colossal being that could embody the power of heaven and earth.

Blackbeard delivered a powerful punch to the massive Dharma Image, the shockwave causing the entire Thunder Dharma Image to become somewhat ethereal.

He could clearly sense that although Robert had dodged his strongest attack in this way, the shock must have injured Robert as well!

Robert quickly moved away from Blackbeard, his consciousness sinking into the prop space.

He wasn't trying to avoid damage with his Thor form at all; he was going to use a move that could only be used in Thor form—Quantum Collapse!

While Blackbeard was focused on attacking him, the outer layer of fabric in the pants pocket, which had been carefully protected, was silently removed by Robert. The item stored in the pants pocket is now lying in Robert's inventory space!

"Blackbeard, a burly, unassuming fellow with an air of utter ignorance, was so meticulously protecting something—"

"A book?"

Chapter 31 You can't block my view!

On Elbaf's side, Jabba appeared just as he had planned with Rayleigh and Shanks, pretending not to recognize Luffy and using a bet as an excuse to test Luffy's recent training results.

Luffy, of course, did not disappoint. After showing Rayleigh his Nikka form, the crew happily took the key and went to rescue Loki.

As if it had been rehearsed long ago, no sooner had Luffy and his crew left than Shamrock and Junzi returned to the mortal realm.

With the Gentleman's Arrow Fruit, drawing the summoning circle became incredibly simple. Black lightning flashed, and two figures appeared within the circle.

One of them has a strange dragon head and is Robert's old acquaintance, Saint Ziringom. The other is Saint Somaz, who possesses the power of the Thorn Fruit.

The two men came to Elbaf so that Shamrock, the leader of the Knights of God, could return to Mary Geoise to take charge.

Robert and the rebels have caused too much trouble in Mary Geoise. Now, not only is the Land of the Gods engulfed in flames, but people are also dying every day due to lack of food and water.

As the Fleet Admiral of the Navy, Aokiji couldn't stay in Mary Geoise every day. He could only use the power of the Ice-Ice Fruit to store some water for Mary Geoise before leaving for a period of time to go back and handle the Navy's affairs.

Now, due to the direct orders of the Five Elders to send a large number of Marines from Fishman Island to the New World, Aokiji naturally has an even better excuse not to waste time in Mary Geoise.

Fortunately, the newly built naval headquarters was located in the former G1 branch, not far from Mary Geoise, so the Five Elders did not force Aokiji to work only in Mary Geoise.

But with such a highly capable and versatile individual as him gone, Mary Geoise needed at least one competent security guard to fill the gap. The first person Garin Saint thought of was his eldest son, Shamlock.

There are two advantages to bringing Shamrock back. First, he is indeed very capable, and he doesn't have as many other things to distract him as Aokiji, so he can focus on eliminating the Revolutionary Army and effectively curb their destruction of Mary Geoise.

The second benefit is risk avoidance. Elbaf is too dangerous right now. It is home to the world's most powerful race, the giants, and Luffy, who has been causing chaos wherever he goes since he set sail. Who knows what dangers he might bring to Shamrock?

Shamrock was sent to Elbaf a long time ago. Back during the World Conference, in order to find out why Shanks suddenly set sail for the end of the Grand Line, Shamrock and Junko used the pentagram array left in Elbaf to teleport there.

Although they did not stay in Elbaf for long and instead sailed directly towards Water Star Island, they quickly returned to the Giant Kingdom after confirming that Shanks was going to stop Blackbeard for a big fight.
