Chapter 303 Bonnie and the Bear

Mary Geoise.

In Pangu City, the Five Elders held a meeting.

What are your thoughts on Sun Wukong defeating Kaido?

Satan, who was presiding over the meeting, said in a deep voice.

"This young man has already established his power, and it will be quite difficult to deal with him now."

"Kaido is not weak. This kid can defeat Kaido at such a young age. He is far more threatening than others. He reminds me of Rocks D. Xebec."

"Hmph! So what if he's as strong as Rocks D. Giebeck? No one can make a ripple in front of that man."

Saints Nassulang, Pit, and Maz spoke in turn.

Regardless of whether they claimed that Wukong posed a great threat, their eyes always held an air of superior indifference.

Even though Goku defeated Kaido and demonstrated immense power, in their eyes, Goku was still just a grasshopper. No matter how high he jumped now, in front of them, or rather, in front of Im behind them, he would only be slapped to death.

"There's not much to say about Sun Wukong defeating Kaido. What I'm more concerned about is something else. Whitebeard didn't even show his face in the final battle between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Beast Pirates, which is not his usual style. So I have reason to believe that Whitebeard is terminally ill and can't even fight anymore."

The previously silent Saint Vochuli calmly and wisely analyzed the situation.

Compared to Wukong, a kid with strength but no power and a simple, naive mind, he was more concerned about Whitebeard, a tyrant who had occupied a large territory for decades.

An individual's power usually has a limited impact on the world, because no matter how powerful he is, he cannot be powerful enough to change the entire world on his own.

But a powerful individual with immense influence is different. His every move can easily affect the entire world. That's why the World Government and the Navy have focused most of their attention on the Four Emperors for so long.

Whitebeard's terminal illness is definitely good news for the World Government, because it means that a powerful force is about to collapse.

The Five Elders all knew that if Whitebeard were to fall, there would be no one in the Whitebeard Pirates who could carry the banner of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even if the second-in-command Marco could barely hold on for a while, it would only be a temporary reprieve and would not last long.

Without the Whitebeard Pirates, whose mere stomp could shake the world, the World Government and the Navy would face significantly less pressure, and would be able to profit from the situation.

Even a group like the Beasts Pirates, which also controlled a region, couldn't bring so many benefits. This is because the Beasts Pirates had been holed up in a closed country like Wano for many years. Even if Kaido died and the Beasts Pirates disbanded, the impact would not be as great as the collapse of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Given the highly probable possibility that Whitebeard was about to fall, the Five Elders held extensive discussions and research, and formulated a series of plans for the upcoming changes in the situation.

Then, Satan raised another issue.

"What exactly is the origin of that giant ape, Saint Vochuli? Have you investigated it thoroughly?"

Since the discovery that Oni Island had been mysteriously destroyed, the World Government has been secretly investigating the cause.

Two months ago, the World Government finally found the people who had been trapped on Onigashima and learned the truth about the island's destruction from them.

It wasn't left behind by some battle between powerful figures, nor was it created by some super weapon; it was actually the destruction caused by a giant ape.

When the Five Elders received this information, they couldn't help but repeatedly verify its authenticity, as it was simply too absurd.

According to the survivors on Ghost Island, the giant ape appeared out of thin air, and no one knew how it came to be. Then, the giant ape casually fired an energy wave, and Ghost Island experienced a tremendous explosion.

After that, the attackers had no idea where the giant ape went, because after feeling the earth-shattering power of the attack, they fled Ghost Island like madmen, and had no courage to stay and see what the giant ape was up to.

The Five Elders were very puzzled by this giant ape that appeared out of nowhere, because they searched through all their memories but could not find any such creature in history, let alone one with such terrifying strength.

Because the matter was of great importance, they even reported it to Lord Im, but Lord Im also knew nothing about this giant ape.

Therefore, investigating the origins of the Gigantopithecus has become an urgent task for them recently.

"No, according to the investigation over this period of time, this giant ape has only appeared once on Ghost Island and has never appeared anywhere else. There is very little information about it. How it appeared and how it disappeared from Ghost Island is still a mystery."

Sacred Vochuli shook his head.

It's incredibly difficult to investigate creatures that lack information like this, even though they've invested a lot of effort in it, they haven't made any progress.

"So it seems that our best hope right now is to wait for it to appear again."

The Five Elders eventually came to this conclusion.

Outside Pangu City, on a certain street, many Celestial Dragons are taking a stroll.

It wasn't a walk on one's own two legs, but a walk on the back of a slave, making the slave crawl on the ground.

Among them, one Celestial Dragon stands out because the slave beneath him is the largest and has the most unique status.

This Celestial Dragon is none other than Saint Roswald, the father of Saint Charlos.

Roswald Saint has been in a bad mood for the past six months because his only son was beaten into a vegetative state by lowly humans six months ago and has not woken up since.

More importantly, the lowly human who beat his son to such a state is still alive and well, which is an insult to the Roswald family. He has sought help from the Five Elders many times, but to no avail.

Harboring resentment, he constantly vented his anger on his slaves.

In just six months, as many as thirty slaves were tortured to death under his control, an average of five deaths per month.

Those damned guys have been stalling me for time, saying they'd bring the killer to me. How much time has passed? My son is still in bed, while that lowly human is out there living a good life!

Saint Rozwald cursed inwardly as he lashed the slave beneath him with his whip.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

He dared not openly curse the Five Elders, so he resorted to this indirect method to vent his anger.

Beneath him, the bear, which had long since lost its own will, felt no pain and crawled forward expressionlessly according to his commands.

The sky was clear and blue, and the sunlight shone down. Looking out, the sea seemed to be draped in a golden veil, which was dazzling and eye-catching.

Bonnie leaned against the ship's railing, gazing wistfully at the horizon. The sea breeze ruffled her hair, stirring her beautiful locks, but it couldn't dispel the sorrow in her heart.

"Bonnie, what are you thinking about?"

A light, cheerful voice came from behind. Bonnie didn't need to turn around to know that it was Nami.

"I'm wondering how my father is doing now. Will he go back to Vegapunk after the Marineford War?"

Nami sighed inwardly; she knew the child was thinking of her father.

"I bet your father is doing well now, and you'll be able to see him soon," Nami replied in a very relaxed tone.

"Marco has already sent many people to look for the island you mentioned, and I believe they will find it soon!"

.

She looked at Bonnie, who had turned her head to the side, and said confidently.

Thinking to myself, this is truly a poor child.

three days ago.

Bonnie, now out of danger, awoke after sleeping for three hours on the Dream Chaser, only to be greeted by Robin's gentle face.

"You, you're not that..."

Bonnie, whose mind was somewhat blank, couldn't recall Robin's name for a moment.

That's understandable. When she was with Wukong and the others before, she didn't interact with them much, so it's normal that she can't remember their names now.

"Robin, my name is Nico Robin."

Robin smiled slightly, showing no anger that the other party had forgotten his name.

"How are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?"

Upon hearing Robin's question, Bonnie instinctively replied, "Hungry, I'm so hungry right now. I want to eat meat, lots and lots of meat."

Then she realized something and asked, somewhat puzzled, "Am I on your ship now? Where's Wukong? Is he here too?"

Robin stood up and nodded slightly: "That's right, we happened to find you stranded at sea, so we brought you ashore. Would you like some meat? Please wait a moment, I'll have Sanji make some for you right away."

"As for Wukong, he's outside. I'll call him in to see you."

After saying that, Robin left the room.

Bonnie stared blankly at the empty doorway, then suddenly remembered something, looked down at her body, and her mouth gaped open.

She... she's in her child form now, her true form. How did Wukong and the others recognize her?!

Ten minutes later.

In the restaurant, Bonnie sat at the table, wolfing down her food like a glutton, and the food on the table disappeared at a visible speed.

Wukong sat next to her, watching her eat with a grin.

Inuarashi and Namur couldn't help but gasp as they watched Bonnie's terrifying eating speed and bottomless appetite.

This little girl is terrifying! She looks like she can eat even more than Sun Wukong!

After eating for an unknown amount of time, Bonnie finally stopped eating when she had devoured almost all the food stored on the ship. She patted her belly, which wasn't even bulging, and let out a satisfied burp.

"Phew—I'm finally full. I was starving before."

Old, old lady?!

Inuarashi and Namur were both stunned when they saw this little girl, who was at most ten years old, say such mature-sounding words.

Bonnie glanced sideways at the two shocked people and casually asked, "Goku, who are these two seemingly dim-witted guys? Are they your new crew members?"

"No, they are my friends," Wukong said with a grin, holding his head.

"Oh, that's good. If you had hired a dull-witted crew member like that, you would have been doomed."

Bonnie's blunt words made Inuarashi and Namur's eyes twitch.

"Bonnie, how did you end up alone at sea, and unconscious? Where are your companions?"

At this moment, Nami, who had come in to eat and recover her strength, asked curiously.

Bonnie's face fell upon hearing the question.

Inuarashi and Namur exchanged a glance and left without thinking. They weren't Bonnie's friends, so they shouldn't listen to her affairs, in case it involved any secrets.

"We encountered a waterspout."

Bonnie said sullenly.

"At that time, we had just finished fighting a group of pirates, and the ship was badly damaged. Then we were suddenly hit by a waterspout, which lifted the entire ship into the sky, and I lost consciousness."

"When I woke up, Tots, Yu Yu, Portto, Pat, and everyone else were gone. I was the only one left floating on the sea."

Bonnie's expression suddenly turned hateful.

"This damn ocean, no matter how I paddled, I couldn't find an island, and I couldn't find any food. Then I fainted from hunger, and then you know what happened next."

Nami sighed, "Just as I thought. I guessed you encountered some extreme weather, but I didn't expect it to be a waterspout."

Waterspouts are a natural disaster that is difficult for humans to combat. If you encounter one, you have to pray that your ship won't collide with it, and if you do, you have to pray that your ship can withstand its impact.

For Bonnie and her crew to be swept away by the sea dragon is truly the worst possible outcome. What's even more unlucky is that this happened when their ship was severely damaged and unable to withstand the natural disaster.

Nami couldn't help but feel sorry for Bonney and the others; they were such a bunch of unlucky kids.

If it weren't for their lucky encounter, Bonnie might have died of thirst at sea by now.

And her companions...

Nami shook her head inwardly.

Most of those people probably met with misfortune; very few will likely survive.

"Naboni, what are you going to do now? Are you going to go find your friends? If so, you may have to stay with us for the time being, because we don't have time to find an island to drop you off on."

Upon hearing Nami's words, Bonney shook her head: "No, I won't go looking for them, and I won't be able to find them anyway. I have to do something very important."

"What's wrong, Bonnie? I can help you," Goku said immediately.

Bonnie fell silent, and after hesitating for a long time, she finally answered, "I need to go find someone."

She never mentioned her purpose to outsiders, because it was a secret that she could never let outsiders know. However, Wukong was a friend she acknowledged, so after much hesitation, she decided not to hide it.

"Looking for someone? Who?" Wukong asked curiously.

"Be, Ga, Pom, K!" Bonnie spat out each word, her eyes filled with hatred.

"Vegapunk?!" Nami exclaimed in disbelief.

Isn't this the world's number one scientist that Robin once mentioned? They had wanted to find him to see if he could feed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit onto weapons, but Nami ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit in the end, so there was no need to do it anymore.

"That's right! That guy is the one who made my father like that, I have to find him! I'll make him turn my father back to normal!"

Bonnie clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

"Who is your father?" Wukong asked, his face full of doubt.

This time, Bonney fell silent again. She looked at Goku, then at Nami and Robin who was listening quietly beside her, and said in a low voice, "Kuma, my father is Bartholomew Kuma."

? ! ! !

Nami's eyes widened in an instant, while Robin's pupils contracted.

Bartholomew Kuma?! The Shichibukai who helped them escape Sabaody Archipelago?! He's Bonney's father?

! !

Wukong blinked, feeling that the name sounded familiar.

He quickly remembered, his eyes widening in surprise. "What?! You're that guy's daughter?!"

To be honest, he had a deep memory of Kuma, not only because Kuma had helped them in the Sabaody Archipelago, but also because he saw Kuma's strange appearance during the Marineford War.

He originally wanted to find out why the other party had become like that during the Marineford War, but he was too busy with other things afterward and forgot about it.

As he thought of this matter, he also remembered something else.

"No wonder, no wonder that guy said that to me. I was so confused at the time."

"You know him?!" Bonnie's sharp eyes shot over instantly.

"Yes, he helped us once, back in the Sabaody Archipelago." Nami told Bonney what happened after they were separated from Bonney in the Sabaody Archipelago.

Then Wukong added, "That guy said something to me at the end, telling me to take good care of Bonnie and stuff. I was wondering why he would say that to me, turns out he's your father."

Bonnie was completely stunned.

Before I knew it, my eyes were filled with tears.

"Father, it turns out that Father was right beside me at that time, but why, why didn't he come out to see me? I've been looking for him for so long."

Her tears fell drop by drop, which broke Nami's heart, and she couldn't help but gently hug her.

"We had no idea that Bartholomew Bear was your father. No wonder that guy helped us back then. Now we finally know why."

They had always wondered why Kuma, a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, would help them, and now they finally knew the reason: Kuma helped them because they were Bonney's friends.

Of course, what they didn't know was that, besides this reason, a big reason was that Xiong valued Wukong and believed that Wukong would be an important figure who would change the future of the world.

"But that guy became really strange later on. When I was saving Ace, he seemed not to recognize me at all and kept attacking me." Goku frowned.

"That's all Vegapunk's doing! He's the one who turned my father into that! That's why I have to find him!"

Bonney broke free from Nami's embrace, her hatred reaching the heavens.

Nami and Robin exchanged a glance, both seeing astonishment in each other's eyes.

Vegapunk? How could this be?

"I understand, I will definitely help you find this Beshock guy!" After understanding the reason, Goku's expression became very serious.

The bear had helped him, so he had to help the bear in return. Besides, Bonnie was his friend, and even if it was just for the sake of his friend, he had to help Bonnie turn the bear back into a human.

"Thank you, Goku." Bonnie was very touched. She thought she would have to rely on herself from now on, but she didn't expect to meet Goku at this critical moment.

"You two, listen to me."

After gathering her thoughts, Nami looked at the two and said, "We have an urgent matter to attend to: we need to help the Whitebeard Pirates. This is the most important thing, so we absolutely cannot help you find Vegapunk right now. Don't worry, Bonney, listen to me. Vegapunk is a member of the World Government, and it won't be easy for us to find him on our own. So we can ask someone for help."

The Whitebeard Pirates have considerable power, and they are fully capable of helping us in this matter. After we help the Whitebeard Pirates resolve their current problems, Goku and I will ask them to help us find Vegapunk.

I believe that with their help, we will be able to find Vegapunk much faster!
