The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

"Then, we'll go settle the score with Vegapunk!!!"

After Bonnie finished speaking, she planned to leave in a huff to find the "real" Vegapunk and cause him trouble!

"Hey!!"

Suddenly, Luffy spoke up, calling out to Bonney, who was about to leave.

His gaze shot in a certain direction, and at the far end of that direction, he saw a very familiar figure.

In the distance, a burly figure was seen walking straight toward them, ignoring everyone else on the street.

"Could we be being watched?!"

Upon closer inspection, Luffy noticed that the opponent possessed a remarkably similar massive physique, fully armed, resembling a sheriff from a Western film, exuding a menacing aura.

The shining star emblem on his chest, along with the English letters "POLIC '813' E," all signify that this massive warrior shoulders the weighty responsibility of safeguarding the island's peace.

However, the closer one gets, the clearer it becomes to recognize that familiar face.

"Bear?!!"

Luffy was suddenly taken aback.

I don't know if he inherited the cold face from his Shichibukai days or transformed it into the ruthless expression of a pacifist.

This strangely familiar face felt incredibly unfamiliar, and even dangerous!

"Is it a pacifist? Or some other weapon...?"

Luffy, chewing on a large piece of meat, frowned: "Anyway, let's run first!!"

Luffy, sensing that the atmosphere was becoming somewhat subtle and strange, wanted to leave immediately.

However, at the same time...

Didi! !

The guard robot Kuma also instantly sensed the target's movement. He suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Luffy and the others.

At the same time, its mouth opened wide, rapidly accumulating a powerful laser beam!

"Just like the [Pacifistas]!!"

Luffy stared at the powerful firepower and immediately started yelling.

Bonnie, on the other hand, stared at that extremely familiar face, lost in thought for a moment.

Whoosh! ! !

In an instant, a dazzling and deadly flash shot towards the four figures directly in front of them!

Guard Kuma finally spoke, solemnly and methodically pronouncing Luffy and the others' "crimes":

"Dining and dashing, stealing clothes, and damaging public property..."

Luffy: "...!!! So you just want money?!"

He was completely dumbfounded: "Hey, hey, hey, are you kidding me? The food was given to us by that boxing-gloved woman."

"As for the clothes, I swapped them with the ones Link gave me!!!"

If he really did dine and dash, then he would naturally run away in a panic.

But now, he was confident and determined to have a serious argument with the robot bear on the other side.

"Hmm, Luffy, it seems they didn't say whether they were inviting us to dinner..."

Chopper said weakly from the side.

"Um???"

"Besides, it seems she only changed clothes with you; she didn't mention the rest of us..."

Luffy: "!!!"

He thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be true. His eyes bulged out, and he cried out in surprise.

"Eh?!?!?!?!"

Just as he was making that foolish face, the blazing laser beam exploded towards him!

A wave of scorching heat instantly swept across the field, carrying with it a chilling and merciless killing intent!

"That's incredibly stingy!!"

As Luffy led Chopper and the others to dodge the flying pebbles, he couldn't help but mutter:

"It's just a little food and a few sets of clothes, is it really necessary to be so stingy?!"

A little food...

Jinbe stared at the ground that the garbage-cleaning dogs had painstakingly cleaned, and fell silent.

This is not just a little bit~

"Besides, the food came out by itself after I was knocked away, and no one told us it cost money?!"

"Even if you want money, it's not like I don't have it. It's all with Link. I'll give it to you when he gets here, okay? Is it really necessary to kill us?!"

The guard Kuma's attack was merciless, and Luffy and Jinbe, no longer taking it lightly, were also quite annoyed by Kuma's money-grubbing attitude...

Well, Jinbe can understand. Judging from what Atlas said earlier, it seems like they're short of money for their research.

That's why they dispatched such a force to deal with Luffy, who ate so much food and didn't pay...

"We have to fight back!"

Luffy rolled up his sleeves, "Otherwise it'll be dangerous!!"

"From a pirate's perspective, this is self-defense!!!"

Swish! !

The instant he finished speaking, Luffy leaped into the sky.

"Third gear!!"

With the blessing of the bone balloon, the three iron fists wrapped in domineering power appeared and were already aimed at the bear.

At the same time, the laser in the opponent's hand had already locked onto the target, ready to be fired.

"Rubber, rubber..."

Luffy was about to unleash a powerful punch when his Observation Haki activated, and a quick glance out of the corner of his eye revealed...

Bonnie had somehow appeared beside him.

And~~~

boom! !

A flying kick landed squarely on Luffy's chest, sending him flying!

"Wait a minute!!"

Whoosh~ Bang!!!

Bonnie's scream was drowned out by the roar of the laser cannon exploding.

Luffy was kicked away by Bonney, falling heavily to the ground, narrowly missing the laser beam, and buried in the ruins by the aftershocks of the explosion.

"What are you doing?!"

Luffy scrambled through the rocks and climbed out unharmed, angrily shouting at Bonney.

He didn't understand what was wrong with this gluttonous woman, why she wanted to stop his attack.

However, Bonnie's expression at this moment was unusually strange.

At the same time, behind the two, a powerful laser beam once again gathered from the mouth of the guard bear.

This time, his target was Bonnie, who stood there motionless!

~~~~~~~~~

[Thank you so much to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the incredibly generous donation yesterday evening!! I am truly grateful!!]

804 That's my father! Aging!! A 70-year-old man in a straw hat makes his appearance!!

"..."

Bonnie gazed at that extremely familiar face, tears already covering her entire cheeks, her eyes brimming with tears.

"That's... my father!!"

She choked back tears as she spoke this incredibly shocking news!

"They are also my only family in this world!!!"

Under Luffy's ever-growing mouth, she sobbed and uttered those words!

“Ehhhhhhhh?!!!”

Upon hearing this astonishing news, Luffy's mouth dropped open, Chopper's eyes widened, and even Jinbe turned around in surprise.

They then realized that Bonnie's earlier statement about her father being transformed into a "cyborg" actually referred to Bartholomew Kuma!

"So, I beg you..."

Tears streamed down her cheeks, her face already a river of tears. "Please don't hurt it!!"

Even though she knew that the one in front of her was just a pacifist guard robot, mimicking her father's face and body shape, and not her.

However, she still couldn't bring herself to attack 20 or watch as the attacks of others descended upon that very familiar figure.

Especially beneath that sheet metal, the faint remnants of her past brought back memories, suddenly releasing Bonnie's deepest, most buried emotions.

Bonnie could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

Even if what's in front of you is a machine puppet that has no thoughts at all and only knows how to do things according to orders.

Moreover, it's a very clumsy imitation of the bear's posture and movements.

But those familiar faces offer some solace, knowing that a daughter has endured countless hardships and trials at sea all this time!

However~~~

Bonnie couldn't bring herself to kill a pacifist, but the pacifists didn't care about the concept of a daughter at all.

Its only function is to have the order to eliminate intruders and disruptors of order, and to carry it out.

That's it.

Therefore, even though Bonnie was there venting her emotions without moving, to pacifists she was nothing more than a stationary target.

Immediately, the blazing laser beam from its mouth shot out rapidly towards Bonnie!

"Idiot, get out of the way!!!"

Upon seeing this, Luffy suddenly roared, "Those are pacifists!!"

After saying that, he rushed out instantly.

Bonnie was completely immobilized at this moment, and the laser was about to hit her.

Luffy bravely leaped forward and managed to rescue him just before the laser beam exploded.

It was an extremely close call; they barely managed to evade the attack.

And behind them...

boom! !

With a loud bang, a laser burst caused a violent explosion on one side of Egg Point Island.

The island's coastline was almost completely destroyed, creating towering waves!

"..."

Guard Big Bear stared at the billowing smoke in front of him and the ruins he had created.

They stopped taking action because they lost their goal.

Behind the billowing smoke were Luffy's four crew members, hiding and evading capture.

Logically speaking, a pacifist should be able to lock onto a target even if the smoke obscures his vision.

But now, the guard, Kuma, tilted his head, as if he couldn't find Luffy and the others at all.
