One Piece: A Guide for Ordinary Players

"You all need to leave. I need to use this room."

The customers in the shop were so frightened that they all got up and tried to run out, just as Robert wheeled himself into the room.

"Hey, pay the owner your drinks first before you leave. It's already bad enough that you're using his place. If you skip out on the bill, do you expect me to compensate the owner for his losses?"

The patrons instinctively turned to look at Luo, who shrugged and said, "His bounty is twice mine, so you should listen to him."

Everyone was so frightened that they quickly paid their money and then scurried out of the tavern, even the tavern owner and staff followed them out.

Luo Qing brought out a long table and gestured for Luo Ba to lie down on it.

Robert lay down casually: "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Without uttering a word, Luo clenched and pinched his fingers, and Luo Ba's two legs seemed to explode, with shattered flesh and bone flying everywhere.

Even after traveling for so long, experiencing countless bizarre scenes, and witnessing so many strange abilities, and even becoming a superman who can control lightning, Robert is still somewhat unaccustomed to this terrifying scene.

Only at this moment did Robert truly understand the power of his kick.

Luo waved his arms as if playing a jigsaw puzzle, quickly piecing together the broken bones into a complete leg bone, then snapped his fingers and put it back into Robert's body.

"My ability is only to help you put your bones back together and speed up the healing process. It doesn't mean you're completely healed. You can walk without any problems now, but if you go through another fierce battle, your legs will be the first to give way."

Robert jumped off the wooden table, released his control over his nerves, and jumped lightly twice, only to find that he only felt a slight tingling sensation.

"You are truly a miracle doctor. If I didn't know you weren't the type to sit in someone else's shoes, I would have invited you to join my team."

Luo walked to the bar and poured himself a drink: "Since you know, don't bring it up. I won't join anyone else. Remember what you said before, you owe me a favor."

Robert smiled and nodded: "If you don't want to join, you don't have to, but we can still cooperate, right?"

Luo remained expressionless, seemingly uninterested in Robert's suggestion.

"Listen to my terms first. If you save my life sometime in the future, I can kill someone for you sometime in the future. How about it?"

Luo frowned, but still did not answer.

Robert didn't force him to make a decision on the spot, and waved goodbye as he left the tavern.

The feeling of regaining his legs put Robert in a great mood. Although he had only been limping for two days, this was the time when he couldn't afford to show any weakness.

Even a pirate with a bounty of 4 million, sitting in a wheelchair, would be attacked by someone in a place like Sabaody Archipelago.

Of the original 11 Supernovas, Luffy and Zoro were old acquaintances of his, and of the others, the only ones Robert was interested in were Law and Kid.

It just so happens that they are both on the island, so it's a good opportunity to meet them and get to know each other.

Just as Robert was about to ask someone about Kidd's whereabouts, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

From the moment he set foot on the Sabaody Archipelago, he was constantly on high alert, his electronic sensors continuously capturing all changes within a 350-meter radius.

That's why I was able to spot Luo sitting on the roof earlier, and now, someone is hiding a hundred meters away watching me.

Although there were many trees and buildings in between, and his Observation Haki had not yet awakened, the combination of his mental field and electronic sensing was still able to instantly capture the person's attention and accurately focus on him.

Robert vanished from his spot in a flash, and the next instant he was standing on a tree branch above the man's head.

The man reacted extremely quickly, leaping into the air and fleeing into the distance the instant Robert disappeared from his senses.

Robert followed him at a leisurely pace, and the man only stopped after escaping to several islands.

This person was dressed in a very Chinese style, with long hair braided into a single plait. The most striking feature was that his arms were divided into three sections, clearly indicating that he belonged to the long-armed tribe.

At present, the only well-known long-armed tribe member in the Sabaody Archipelago is the intelligence broker Haiming Ap.

Thinking he had escaped Robert's pursuit, Apoo breathed a sigh of relief, ignoring the stares of those around him at his disheveled appearance, straightened his clothes, and walked into the bar next door.

Robert landed calmly on the ground and was about to follow into the bar to chat with Ap when he suddenly felt a strange sensation in his body.

With an even brighter smile, Robert strode toward the bar.

Inside the bar, Ap was already arguing with someone: "What are you looking at? If you want to fight, I'm ready."

The man opposite him sneered: "You dare to say that? You long-armed freak, just looking at you makes me sick!"

Ap was radiating a chilling aura, and anyone could tell he was truly angry.

Robert pushed the bar door open, and the man who had been looking at Ap with a mocking expression instantly turned serious, staring intently at Robert as if he were looking at something unbelievable.

Robert's smile was harmless: "I was planning to talk to you two separately, but now I've met you both at once."

Ap's eyes darted around instantly, as if he was very wary of Robert.

The man who was at loggerheads with Ap said with a fierce look on his face: "I was just looking for you too. I want to see what kind of guy can turn the bounty into 4 million in such a short time!"

With a wave of his arm, all the metal cutlery in the bar floated up.

Robert raised his hand and made a downward pressing motion, and the knives and forks that had just flown up fell back down in an instant, as if the force that had just driven them had been eliminated by Robert's casual movement.

"I am pure gold 999, and you are a good friend 666. Using magnetism on me is a bit too confident."

"Kidd!"

Chapter 41 Are you fishing here?

Even outside the tavern, Robert's Rumble-Rumble Fruit had already reacted to Kid's Magnet-Magnet Fruit.

Although Robert is a Logia-type Devil Fruit user and Kid is a Paramecia-type, and their Devil Fruits shouldn't be ranked in a superior-inferior relationship, in terms of the essence of electricity and magnetism, Robert's electricity is indeed closer to the origin.

Robert's ability to easily break Kid's moves doesn't mean he's much stronger than Kid now. In fact, Robert himself is well aware that, based on attributes and levels alone, he's far inferior to Kid.

But what could he do? Kidd was illiterate, while he himself knew the principles of electromagnetism very well.

Kidd uses his instincts to drive the magnetic force to attract metal. He only needs to randomly disrupt the direction of the current inside the metal, and the magnetic force will be instantly neutralized.

Kidd was completely shocked. Since he ate the Magnet-Magnet Fruit, he had never encountered an opponent.

Kidd is like a child who is complacent because he has a firearm. His strength comes from the weapon he obtained too easily. Once he suddenly loses this weapon, his weakness is exposed instantly.

While Robert may not be considered particularly strong, he is certainly a master at showing off.

He casually pulled out a chair and sat down: "Don't be too nervous, you two. I'm not here to fight. I just want to make some friends. As you know, I've offended too many people lately."

He counted on his fingers: "First I cursed Akainu, then I kicked and injured Aokiji, and when I had time, I even blew up the Marine G2 branch and Enies Lobby. Now I'm tired of fighting and just want to make friends."

Kidd suppressed the immense shock within him and asked, "How did you do that just now?"

Robert laughed and said, "If we were friends, I would certainly tell you everything I know, but if you don't consider me a friend, why should I explain my methods to the enemy?"

Kidd stood up, called to his crew, and walked out of the tavern, seemingly uninterested in becoming friends with Robert.

Robert picked up a knife from the table, casually straightened the original magnet inside, and then threw it at Kidd.

Kidd reacted extremely to the knife, freezing it in mid-air from a great distance.

Robert laughed and said, "This is a little gift for you. It's the key that allows me to unlock your Magnet-Magnet Fruit ability, but its magnetic force won't last long."

Kidd slowly manipulated the knife in his hand, squinted at Robert for a long time, and then quickly left with his men.

Robert then looked at Ap, who gave an awkward smile.

"Mr. Ap seems quite interested in me. He's been observing me from a distance. I was going to go up and say hello, but why is Mr. Ap hiding from me?"

Apoo forced a grim smile: "I'm an information broker, so of course I know more than others. For example, everyone thinks that you and Ace teamed up to injure Aokiji on Enies Lobby, but the information I received is that you were the one who injured Aokiji, and Ace was just there to restrain him."

Robert almost burst out laughing. This Ap thought he knew something that others didn't, but what he said was completely the opposite of the truth.

He was clearly the one who was trying to distract Aokiji; if Ace hadn't used his Devil Fruit ability to hold off Aokiji head-on, he wouldn't have had a chance to launch a sneak attack.

Moreover, the so-called injury was at most just causing Aokiji to fall down; it was absolutely impossible for it to cause any serious harm.

However, Robert is not going to stand up and humbly clarify now: "That was all out of necessity. I never want to run into an opponent like Aokiji again. Mr. Apoo just said that he is an information dealer. I wonder if he can do me a favor?"

Ap swallowed hard. Robert's background was mysterious. Just half a month ago, no one knew what he did. But as soon as he debuted, he was worth 7000 million Berries. Then he caused a ruckus on Enies Lobby, and his worth soared to 4 million.

This kind of person is extremely dangerous. He may appear polite and kind on the surface, but just by looking at what he does, you can tell at a glance that he is definitely a madman.

If possible, Ap doesn't want to have anything to do with him.

But now that he's been caught spying on others first, he's afraid he won't be able to get away with this without agreeing to some demands.

Robert's strength has been proven in battle; he is by no means a useless bum with a high bounty. Apoo is now in a rather awkward position.

What do you need me to do?

Robert laughed and said, "I have some news that needs to be delivered to Whitebeard as soon as possible. I don't know if you can do it. If you can't, I don't know if you know anyone who can!"

Ap swallowed hard. He knew that Robert's words were not good. Although the man in front of him was only about twice as valuable as him, he was an admiral and had connections with the Four Emperors. He was not on the same level as him at all.

"The Whitebeard Pirates' influence extends to the latter half of the New World. Even if I send the message there, it will take some time..."

Robert frowned. This was also his biggest headache. No matter how fast he traveled, he couldn't deliver the goods if he didn't know the way.

Seeing Robert frown, Ap thought he was angry: "But I know someone who is better at delivering messages than anyone else in the world."

Robert perked up: "I wonder what Mr. Ap is referring to?"

"Morgans, the president of World Economic News Agency!"

Robert was stunned. He had actually forgotten about this birdman who didn't appear until Sanji and Pudding's wedding two years later in the original work.

This birdman, who claims to be one of the emperors of the underworld, is truly a master at delivering messages.

"Mr. Ap, could you introduce me to someone?"

Ap said hesitantly, "I can only try; he's a real big shot..."

Robert laughed and said, "Just help me pass on the message. Tell him I'm going to make a big splash soon, the kind of big splash that's enough to shake up the new world order, and ask him if he's interested."

Apoo nodded perfunctorily in agreement. Every supernova who comes to the Sabaody Archipelago dreams of shaking up the order of the new world. It would be a miracle if such words could attract Morgans.

But he was just a messenger and didn't care about after-sales service, so he readily agreed.

Robert didn't take out a Den Den Mushi; he simply covered his earpiece and started tapping it.

Considering that Apoo was a user of the Sound-Sound Fruit and likely had his own unique way of communicating, Robert didn't interfere.

Apu looked serious at times and frowned at others, and Robert felt that he was being a bit pretentious.

Suddenly, Ap looked at Robert in surprise: "Morgons agreed!"

Robert smiled slightly: "Really? That's great. How about we make the deal?"

Ap swallowed hard. "He said you have to go through Mary Geoise to find him!"
