Rayleigh glanced in the direction the Straw Hat Pirates gone and asked, "Are they all gone?"

Haku nodded and said, "You can get ready! There's not much time left before it starts."

"Alright then, I'll risk it all, even if it's just an old bone!" Rayleigh said seriously.

Haku said, "No rush, it's not your turn to fight like this, old man."

Rayleigh nodded, but after glancing at Haku's current appearance and build, he couldn't help but ask, "What happened to you?"

Haku glanced at Bonney, who snorted and turned away from Haku.

Facing Rayleigh's amused gaze, Haku nonchalantly replied, "So what if I crashed!"

"What an enviable Devil Fruit ability. I bet your Aunt Xia will love it." Rayleigh glanced at Bonney.

Judging from Haku's current state, he had already guessed what had happened to Haku.

Haku shrugged and said, "If she doesn't mind being turned into a crying little kid."

"Turn into a child?" Rayleigh's lips curled up, probably thinking of something amusing.

Upon hearing Rayleigh's thoughts, Haku immediately looked at the old man in front of her with disdain.

"Then I'll be going now." Rayleigh waved to Haku; he still needed to prepare for what was to come. He wouldn't stay on Sabaody Archipelago any longer!

Given Haku and Rayleigh's social standing, it's impossible for them to reminisce at such a conspicuous and special time.

After watching Rayleigh walk towards the bar, Haku turned to look at Bonney, who was still hanging there.

The latter still wore that resentful and unhappy expression.

Haku looked at the other person and said, "You've calmed down, haven't you? Now that you've calmed down, you'll have to listen to what I have to say."

"I won't listen! I won't listen! I won't listen!" Bonney said to Haku, covering her ears.

"Hey! I have a short temper," Haku said, waiting for Bonney to speak.

He felt too embarrassed to discipline such a mischievous child.

Haku said in a voice Bonney could hear, "Don't you want to know about your father?"

Bonney looked at Haku with disdain and said, "You're an outsider, how could you possibly know more than my daughter!"

"Fine, fine! Is this how you play it?" Haku suddenly wanted to give up and ignore it.

Haku played her trump card, saying, "Don't you want to know how the bear returned to its original form?"

Bonney paused, turned her head, and looked at Haku with a mixture of doubt and expectation in her eyes. Although she tried to hide it, her eagerness and longing were hard to conceal.

Seeing this, Haku's lips curled into a smug smile. He already had a plan in mind, knowing how to exploit Bonney's weakness. He deliberately spoke slowly and deliberately, "Want to know? If you want to know, then show some respect first."

Bonney frowned; she was clearly unwilling to relinquish her pride and stubbornness, yet at the same time, she was filled with curiosity about what Haku had mentioned about her father. She hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to compromise.

She snorted, turned her head away, and said reluctantly, "Speak, what do you want me to do?"

Haku smiled slightly, knowing his strategy had worked. He walked to Bonney's side and released the Spiritual Power binding her. After landing, Bonney glared at Haku, but didn't do anything further.

Haku looked at Bonney and said seriously, "I do know some things about your father. However, this isn't something I'm telling you; it's something you chose to know. So, I hope you can remain calm and rational and not do anything impulsive."

Bonney didn't speak, but just stared intently at Haku, waiting for him to continue.

Haku took a deep breath and began to speak slowly, "Your father, he was a truly remarkable person. He possessed immense power and bore heavy responsibilities. The reason he became who he is today is because he made a tremendous sacrifice—to protect you, to protect this world."

Bonney listened to Haku's words, the doubt in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a complex emotion. She seemed to understand her father's choice and sacrifices, but at the same time, she felt immense heartache.

After all, even if she's precocious, she's still just a ten-year-old child.

Haku told Bonney everything about Bartholomew Kuma, including why he had become the way he was.

And then, in what way will she awaken the Bear, who has become a complete Pacifista?

After explaining everything Bonney didn't know, including all the details!

Bonney looked up at Haku and said, "You're giving me all this, aren't you afraid I'll go and wake up my father?!"

Haku said to Bonney, "You can do that too, but you need to think carefully. The consequence of doing so would be that Bear's plan would be exposed! And it would put him in endless danger!"

Bonney fell silent, unsure of what to do to get the bear back.

Finally, Bonney spoke up, "Since you came to Sabaody Archipelago to find me, did he order you to do this?"

Haku said, "It's about half and half. Your identity is far too sensitive. It would be troublesome if the World Government took notice of you, so I plan to send you somewhere first."

Bonney raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where?"

"You'll find out when you get there," Haku said.

Then, he changed the subject and said to Haku again, "So, can you remove the power of the Toshi Toshi no Mi from me?"

As she spoke, Haku adjusted her clothes, revealing that she had shrunk considerably since being transformed into a sixteen or seventeen-year-old.

This made Haku's navy uniform no longer fit properly.

Bonney transformed into a child, pulled at her lower eyelid with her index finger, and stuck out her tongue, saying, "No!"

Haku was both amused and exasperated by Bonney's quirky antics.

He couldn't help but reach out and gently tap Bonney on the head, saying, "You little brat, can't you be a little more sensible? I'm in such a state now, I can barely walk."

Bonney snorted, turned her head away, and said, "I want to! I just don't want you to get too cocky."

It's clear that this brat really doesn't want to undo the Devil Fruit's power.

Haku shook his head helplessly. He knew that this little girl was a bit rebellious and needed to be disciplined.

Haku planned to delegate this kind of problem to certain people, and the outcome was none of her concern.
