One Piece: A Guide for Ordinary Players

Suddenly, the sea in the distance resembled a thunderous hell, with countless bolts of lightning striking out from the thick clouds. The dozens of Pacifistas that Sengoku had just released as a trump card to cut off the pirates' retreat were completely enveloped in the thunder.

"One pacifist has 20,000 experience points, and there are 50 of them down here!"

Amidst the thick clouds, Robert, like a god wielding supreme authority, wantonly unleashed devastating power to attack the naval ambush!

The powerful electric current was not only a fatal blow to the pacifists, but also caused multiple short circuits in the mechanical walls that Sengoku intended to use to trap all the pirates. Some walls only rose halfway, and some did not even emerge from the sea.

It was precisely because of Robert's insistence that Little Oz, who was supposed to be the main force in breaking through the wall and risking his life to save others, did not appear here.

Even during the most intense moments of the battle, Robert remained hidden in the clouds, all for this very moment!

Because these fighting machines, which are capable of inflicting devastating damage on the lower-level combatants of the Whitebeard Pirates, are precisely the ones he is most vulnerable to!

Top-tier combat weapons, whose manufacturing cost was comparable to that of a warship, were continuously damaged by Robert's lightning strikes. Robert's experience points skyrocketed, and even though the experience points for leveling up increased exponentially, this wave of lightning strikes still caused Robert to level up two levels!

[Level 14 (558800/819200)]

He allocated the 20 free attribute points he gained from the upgrade according to his pre-planned strategy: 11 points to Strength (reaching 46), 4 points to Stamina, and 5 points to Spirit, raising both values ​​to 50!

Your stamina has exceeded 50 points; you can choose one of the following stamina-related skill branches.

[Near-death immunity: You will never fall into a coma due to injury. Before you die completely, even if the injury is severe, you can control your physical activities with 30% of your healthy mobility.]

[Iron Body (Advanced option to the prerequisite skill Robust Physique): Your physical strength is further increased, and you will receive an additional 30% final damage reduction when attacked by physical attacks; maximum health, maximum fruit energy, etc. are increased by 150% (overrides 50% of the prerequisite skill's effect)]

Robert's spirits lifted. Just as he had expected, a new skill option appeared when his attribute broke through the 50-point limit.

The near-death immunity skill is extremely powerful; if he hadn't eaten the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, he would definitely have chosen this path.

However, even if he is injured and loses his ability to move due to the lightning ability, he can still escape by transforming into an element as long as he is not restricted by sea stone. Therefore, the only function of this skill is to prevent himself from falling into a coma, which greatly reduces its cost-effectiveness.

The Steel Body skill, as an advanced skill, is obviously more valuable. It not only provides 30% independently calculated physical damage reduction, but also further increases one's maximum health and mana.

More importantly, Robert wanted to know if there would be further advancement options when he broke through the attribute limit again.

After some deliberation, Robert chose the Steel Body skill.

The strength of his bones, muscles, and even blood vessels increased further, and Robert felt that he had grown taller, finally reaching the non-disabled standard of about 1.9 meters in this world.

[Your Spirit value exceeds 50 points; you can choose one of the following Spirit skill branches.]

[Assimilation Perception: Your mental energy resonates with your surroundings, allowing you to perceive information that is impossible to obtain through conventional means in very rare cases (this can be used to create advanced skills)]

[Microscopic Interference (Prerequisite Skill Mastery Advanced Rare Option!): Based on your meticulous development of your own spirit, your microscopic manipulation ability has been further enhanced, allowing you to influence certain microscopic substances that are invisible to the naked eye.]

Robert's lips curled up almost to his ears. Even if the panel didn't indicate that microscopic interference was a rare option, he would definitely choose this skill that would allow him to move from the macroscopic to the microscopic!

Kidd's voice came from afar: "When is it my turn to take the stage! You didn't call me here just so I could use my Devil Fruit power to generate electricity and sail the ship, did you?"

"The fighting down there is so exciting! How could such a grand scene be complete without my participation! Don't just focus on showing off!"

Robert flashed and landed on the spaceship in the clouds. The ship was shining with golden light. What else could it be but the Ark Maxim, which Robert was unable to take away before and left in the sea of ​​clouds above the sky island?

The thunderclouds that enveloped the entire Marineford were created by Robert using the Ark Maxim!

The power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit is almost limitless and a hundred times more powerful as long as one is within the range of thunderclouds!

"Kidd, now is not the time for you to step in. You need to know that you can only use that attack once, and it must be the highlight of the entire war!"

"Next, I will do everything in my power to create that one in ten thousand chance for you!"

Chapter 60 New and Old Grudges

Seeing his most important ambush completely destroyed, Sengoku even took off his coat and decided to personally take action!

"Have you sent anyone to contact Borsalino? How's the situation on Sabaody Archipelago? Tell him to come back as soon as possible; we can only rely on him to block the pirates' retreat!"

Upon hearing Sengoku's order, the Rear Admiral immediately directed the Navy's information department to contact Kizaru, but before Sengoku could even step onto the execution platform, the Rear Admiral exclaimed in terror:

"Marshal! Something terrible has happened! Someone has caused a massive explosion on the Red Line beneath Mary Geoise. Lord Kizaru is dealing with it urgently and won't be able to return!"

During the Warring States period, he felt as if he was being schemed against at every turn, and his pieces were being captured one by one by the enemy.

His eyes turned to the battlefield: "Who exactly orchestrated this plan? Whitebeard, this isn't like you!"

Akainu, unable to bear it any longer, stood up and looked up at the clouds, his voice echoing across the entire battlefield:

"Roba D. Neru, Son of Destruction! I knew you were a menace the moment I heard news of you! Now that you're getting involved in this mess, leave your life behind!"

He raised his hands toward the sky, and the lava seemed to bombard the dark clouds as if it were free, actually threatening to shatter the clouds above his head!

Thunder rumbled loudly, and the sea of ​​clouds enveloping Marineford acted as a giant megaphone, with the thunder serving as Robert's mouthpiece.

"Akainu! You bastard! You forced me, a law-abiding citizen, to become a pirate, and now you have the nerve to accuse me of being the villain!"

"I already had the G2 branch of the Navy send you a message: if one day I personally come to Marineford and tear down your naval headquarters, it's all thanks to you! You'll be fully responsible!"

Suddenly, a massive rain of lava began to fall from the clouds, crashing onto the distant sea where a battle was taking place. Both the navy and the pirates suffered indiscriminate attacks from Akainu.

Robert's voice came from the clouds: "You bastard, you even kill your own people, do you even deserve to be a Marine?"

"And what kind of lousy nickname did you come up with! I don't want to be called such a tasteless name!"

"Go to hell with your damn son of destruction! Today I'll show you what a true 'Camel Xiangzi' really is!"

Not only the Navy, but even the Whitebeard Pirates, who had been informed of most of the plan, were completely baffled.

The next second, countless amounts of sloppy and dry excrement suddenly poured down from the clouds, heading straight for the Navy Headquarters building and the sailors guarding the execution platform.

Many people didn't even realize what was happening until the excrement was poured over their heads. Then, the desire to kill Robert surged into the hearts of all the marines. Compared to being attacked, the humiliation of being covered in excrement was even more unbearable.

Akainu unleashed a torrent of magma, scattering all the flying creatures above the execution platform. Although the excrement didn't land on his head, it still made the entire Marineford area stink.

Kidd watched as Robert pressed a switch, opening the massive box that had been trailing behind the Proverb, completely unaware of the devastating weapon he had unleashed.

"Hey, what's 'Camel Xiangzi'?"

Robert grinned crookedly: "Not Camel Xiangzi, but Fallen Tuo Xiangzi!"

Pulling the control stick, Proverb began to fly towards the sea, far away from Marineford.

"When the Navy sees my attack, they will definitely try to dispel the dark clouds. Akainu is already doing that. I'm handing this ark over to you. The Wind-Blowing Shell has been carrying wind energy all the way here. Even if you are exhausted and can no longer fly it, the wind alone will be enough to sustain it for more than an hour."

"I've even thrown poop at Akainu's head, I don't believe he can stay calm. Once he's in a state of confusion, he'll have no choice but to follow my lead."

Robert patted the gunwale of the Ark Proverb: "I'm going to take the stage. If I don't come back, don't disgrace it."

Kidd scoffed, "Alright, stop testing me. Even though it's shiny and can fly, I'm not the kind of person who would covet your ship. If you don't come back, I'll sail it to some deserted island and hide it, so your beautiful lover can inherit it."

Robert smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and transformed into lightning, disappearing into the clouds.

The more lightning power in the dark clouds is used, the faster it dissipates. Without the Ark Maxim, the source of the dark clouds, and with Akainu's relentless bombardment, the dark clouds will eventually disperse. I must use this last bit of time to deal maximum damage.

Lightning bolts from the sky struck the ground without restraint, first hitting the executioners standing guard beside Ace, then precisely targeting the mid- to high-ranking officers on the battlefield.

Marineford has a navy of over 70,000, and no fewer than 10,000 mid- to high-ranking officers who can provide Robb with experience points. After several rounds of lightning strikes, Robb gained over 200,000 experience points, but unfortunately, it didn't allow him to level up again.

[Level 14 (782600/819200)]

Only opponents completely defeated by Robert can have their experience calculated in real time. His attack could only instantly kill officers and junior colonels who could only provide a small amount of experience.

Even if a naval officer of colonel rank or above is severely injured by lightning, many can still maintain consciousness and accumulate experience until the battle is completely over.

As Robert unleashed a barrage of lightning attacks, Akainu and Aokiji, two top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruit users, frantically used their Devil Fruit abilities to disperse the dark clouds. They both realized that if the clouds weren't dispersed, Robert wouldn't be able to target them, and his destructive power would be comparable to that of an Admiral!

"Marshal! The live broadcast footage has fallen to the ground!"

Sengoku's eyes narrowed: "There! Sakazuki! Kuzan! Kill that bastard!"

At this point, Robert had attracted more hatred than the entire Whitebeard Pirates. The Navy's high command had even forgotten who the main character was today, and only wanted to kill Robert as soon as possible!

A live Den Den Mushi was perched on Robert's shoulder, and a wooden box that looked like a coffin stood beside him.

Seeing Akainu and Aokiji each using their unique abilities to traverse the entire battlefield and rush towards him, Robert waved to the Moby Dick behind him:

"Marco, can you help me stop Aokiji? I can't handle two Admirals by myself."

Marco's body ignited with beautiful blue flames: "I'm so much older than you, remember to call me big brother from now on! You've done a great job, but you're still no match for the general. Leave these two to your older brothers!"

He took flight and pounced on the two attackers. Akainu and Aokiji exchanged a glance. Aokiji took the initiative to meet Marco, while Akainu circled around and continued charging towards Robert.

Whitebeard stood at the bow of the ship, looking down at Robert: "Are you sure you want to fight Akainu alone? You're no match for him now. You've already done more than any of us combined today. Why not choose to trust the rest of the family?"

Robert looked resolutely in Akainu's direction and answered a question that seemed unrelated: "I've been too embarrassed to ask you before, but do I have the potential for Conqueror's Haki?"

Whitebeard hesitated for a moment, but still spoke the truth: "You're too calculating, always trying to win with the least effort. You lack the spirit to face challenges head-on, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to awaken your Conqueror's Haki."

Robert's face beamed with a bright smile: "So, I'm not going to hide in the shadows and play those underhanded tricks anymore. I'm going to fight Akainu—"

"A direct confrontation in the middle!"

Chapter 61 I'm coming clean, I'm a fan of the Red and Black Sect.

Akainu's legs shot out lava backward like rockets, propelling him across the entire battlefield at incredible speed, leaving behind a trail of charred corpses indiscriminately scattered, all in his pursuit of reaching Robert as quickly as possible.

The enormous fist transformed completely into magma and struck straight at Robert's chest.

"Netherhound!"

Faced with Akainu's deadly move that even Whitebeard couldn't withstand, Robert simply held up the huge wooden box in front of him without any intention of dodging.

Akainu's pupils dilated violently, as if he had sensed something. Although he couldn't stop his attack in time, his fist was already raised and turned towards the sky.

But he had rushed too fast and was now very close to Robert. Before he could fully raise his arm, Robert had already taken the initiative to meet his fist with the wooden box in his hand.

The intense heat, combined with immense force, shattered the wooden crate to pieces, revealing the lifeless figure inside.

Even in the chaotic battlefield of Marineford, the appearance of the corpse that Akainu had killed with a single punch brought a few seconds of silence.

Although most people do not recognize the identity of this corpse, the bubble-shaped helmet on his head is enough to identify him as a Celestial Dragon!

Robert used Flash to create distance and appeared on the ice several hundred meters away, carrying in his hand the head of a Celestial Dragon whose chest had been smashed off by Akainu's punch!

"Saint Charlos, a member of the Celestial Dragons, a World Noble. Akainu, you have quite the nerve. I thought only we pirates hated the Celestial Dragons to the bone. How come you, a Marine with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are even more ruthless towards the Celestial Dragons than the pirates?"

As he lifted Charles Saint's head, this horrifying scene was broadcast worldwide via a live Den Den Mushi (a type of televised communication device) on his shoulder.

"Of course, you don't need to feel any pressure. This guy has committed many evils. He likes to force other people's wives to marry him, take them back to Mary Geoise, and then torture them to death. He is the worst of the worst. If you kill him, you will be doing a service to the people."

The entire navy was silent, even Akainu stood frozen in place.

On the execution platform, Marshal Sengoku and Lieutenant General Tsuru were completely blank-minded, with only one thought remaining—Sakazuki is finished!

Even if Charles Saint died at Akainu's hands because Robert used him as a shield, and even if Akainu had clearly shown signs of backing down and Robert had willingly handed over the hostage to Akainu's killing move, it doesn't change the fact that he personally killed a Celestial Dragon!
