Bear Armor Mech, Activate! (Third Update)

"You've disappointed me greatly, Vearth."

Storm immediately saw that Vearth, a member of the "pro-war faction," was backing down. He shook his head and said with disappointment.

"Since you're unwilling to kill all the enemies, then you should be prepared to be killed by the Skypieans!"

After saying that, Storm stopped looking at Vearth and turned to look at the Sky Island Old God on the other side.

"Gan Fall, how about leading the Skypieans to reclaim this island by force, just like you did four hundred years ago?"

"Don't joke around! God of the Blue Ocean!"

Gan Fall roared at Storm, the old man who had long since disregarded life and death and didn't care about anything divine.

"The Skypieans must not die in a meaningless war!"

"That's right! You two, one is too scared to fight, and the other doesn't want to fight, so why are you spouting so much nonsense?"

Storm clapped his hands, tossed the Sky Fish skeleton aside, stood up, and turned to leave.

"Boring! I'd rather see rivers of blood!"

Robin looked at the Shandia people and Sky Island Old Gods standing there dumbfounded, shook his head silently, and left with Storm.

As a historian who is well-versed in history.

Robin knew very well that what Storm had just said was the normal choice that most countries would make when faced with foreign invasion.

Wars between nations.

Strong nations eliminate foreign enemies, while weak nations are eliminated by foreign enemies.

This has always been the case.

"Captain."

Robin caught up with Storm and said in a low voice.

"Everyone has calmed down."

"They really need to calm down; the locals are incredibly rude."

Storm unleashed his Observation Haki, searching for prey in the surrounding area.

"Even eating is so unpleasant, Robin. Would you like something else to eat?"

"I'm already full, but Captain, have you noticed something...?"

Robin declined Storm's invitation to dinner, reminding him of it.

"The way those Shandia people looked at you just now has changed a little."

"Yeah?"

Storm responded casually.

What happened to them?

"The Shandia people used to look at the Captain like fanatics looking at a god."

Robin paused for a moment, then spoke earnestly.

"But now, the Shandia people look at the Captain like ordinary people look at a god."

"This is not funny."

Storm frowned and glanced at Robin.

"You know my attitude toward 'God,' Robin."

"Not only do I know, but the Shandia people know as well, Captain."

Robin shrugged, a mischievous smile spreading across his face.

"But in the eyes of ordinary Shandia people or Skypieans, is there any difference between you, Captain, and a 'god'?"

"I had thought before that if I ever saw a statue of the Captain in Shandia people's home, I wouldn't be surprised at all."

"Boring."

Storm expressed his view on "God" in just two words.

He did not continue to follow up on the subsequent conflict between the Shandia people and the Skypieans.

However, his words before leaving continued to circulate among the Shandia people, amplifying their influence.

There is indeed a blood feud between the Shandia people and the Skypieans.

But Storm's words also clearly pointed out the current problem --

The Shandia people cannot afford to fight.

The Skypieans don't want war.

Since that's the case, everyone has no choice but to put aside past grievances and resume peace negotiations.

When the peace negotiations between the Shandia people and the Skypieans yielded initial results.

Storm received a call from Bear.

"Storm!"

Bear couldn't hide the excitement and agitation in his voice.

"Dr. Gage is familiar with the disease 'Azure Jade Scales,' and he also knows how to treat it!"

"The treatment plan proposed by Dr. Gage is the same as the treatment plan proposed by Dr. Vegapunk before!"

Bonney is saved! Thank you, Storm.

"You're welcome."

Storm smiled.

"In that case, I will set off for the East Blue immediately."

"Bonney, do you want me to go pick her up for you? I'm faster than you."

Bear originally intended to return to the Sorbet Kingdom himself to retrieve Bonney.

But after hearing Storm's words, he hesitated again.

Although it's unclear how Storm did it, he was indeed faster than expected.

Bear has obtained the newspapers from Germa 66 for the past few days.

He knew that Storm had recently accomplished many great things, even becoming Shichibukai.

If Storm goes to pick up Bonney can receive treatment more quickly...

"Then I'll leave it to you, Storm."

Bear agreed to Storm's suggestion, and then went on and on about many other things to keep in mind.

"Bonney is sick. She can't be exposed to light. You'd better put her in a small cage..."

"Bear."

Storm interrupted the Bear.

"Based on your previous experience, is Bonney's ability to perceive natural scenery affected?"

"Look?"

Bear was a little confused, but he still answered honestly.

"If it's just for looking, there shouldn't be any problem."

"When Bonney is in the chapel, she can see the outside... but she can't leave the chapel, and she can't be exposed to natural light, especially sunlight."

"I see."

Storm nodded.

"I'll be careful."

After the Den Den Mushi hangs up.

Storm found Robin and told her it was time to leave Sky Island.

"Captain, have you been to the East Blue before?"

"No, but we're heading to the South Blue now to pick someone up."

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon spread its wings and soared into the sky, leaving Jaya Island behind.

Target: South Blue, the Sorbet Kingdom.

[More-More Fruit - 100x Speed]!

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon left a fleeting white trail against the azure sky.

It only took less than a day.

Storm and Robin then traveled from Sky Jaya Island to the Sorbet Kingdom in the South Blue.

"I never imagined that ocean voyages could be so convenient."

Robin stepped down from the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, his face filled with surprise and admiration.

"Captain, have you considered starting a 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon Space Company'?"

"Robin, have you ever considered opening an 'archaeologist massage company'?"

Storm waved to Robin and responded coldly.

"If you have some free time now, go buy a pair of sunglasses; you'll need them later."

Robin extended his right hand to Storm.

Storm looked at Robin's right hand, remained silent for a moment, and then sculpted Godzilla about the size of her palm.

"Little cutie, kawaii... Captain, I'm asking for money!"

"Here you go! Go quickly and come back soon!"

Storm took a ten-thousand-yuan bill from his pocket and stuffed it into Robin's hand.

Then the two of them split up, one going to town to buy sunglasses, and the other to the chapel.

Not long after.

Storm then went to the chapel.

Bulldog is now the new king of the Sorbet Kingdom, received him.

"Lord Storm, what brings you here?"

"Good news has come from Bear's side."

Storm took out Den Den Mushi and dialed the Bear's number.

Bear immediately answered the phone, his voice echoing through the chapel.

The familiar voice immediately caught the little one's attention.

With a series of "thump thump thump" footsteps.

A tall, curvaceous pink-haired girl approached Storm.

"Dad?"

"Bonney!"

Storm handed the Den Den Mushi to Bonney.

The latter shrunk in a flash, transforming from a vibrant, pink-haired girl into a short, tiny creature.

This ability to "change size at will" gave Storm a strong sense of déjà vu.

It's like that other girl who can change size at will, and who's also a total shut-in...

"Bulldog."

"Yes, Lord Storm."

"Besides Bonney, does Bear have any other 'sons'? Maybe an adopted son?"

"Ah? As far as I know, there shouldn't be any, right?"

There was a hint of hesitation in Bulldog's words.

If he remembered correctly, Bonney also seemed to have appeared suddenly one day...

If one day in the future, another woman comes looking for Bear with a child...

This kind of thing doesn't seem entirely impossible.

Storm and Bulldog watched quietly as Bonney chatted with the Bear.

Then a knock came at the door.

Robin arrived wearing his newly bought sunglasses.

Storm nodded to Robin, then spoke to Bonney.

"Bonney, and Bear, we need to get ready to leave now."

Upon hearing Storm's words, the Bear finally stopped chatting and asked Bonney to give the Den Den Mushi to Storm.

"Uncle..."

Bonney walked over reluctantly and handed the Den Den Mushi to Storm.

"For you."

"Uncle..."

Storm's lips twitched. He took the Den Den Mushi, glanced at Robin beside him, and asked with a hint of malice.

"Then what should you call her?"

"Hello, Bonney, is that right?"

Robin crouched down and looked at Bonney tenderly.

"I am Nicole Robin."

"Sister Robin!"

Bonney was captivated by her older sister's smile.

Completely oblivious to the fact that the older boy next to him was losing his smile.

"This is for you, Bonney."

Robin took the little Godzilla clay figurine that Storm had just casually sculpted from his bag and handed it to Bonney.

"Its name is 'Little Monster,' that's the name I gave it."

Its real Godzilla!

Storm coldly interrupted the conversation between the two girls.

Bonney, I was going to give you a choice, but now, you have no choice!

"Come out, Bear!"

Storm unleashed the power of the Clay- Clay Fruit, and a Clay Doll identical to Bear immediately appeared on the scene.

"Dad?"

When Bonney saw the Bear, she instantly forgot about Robin who had just given her a gift, and ran up to the Bear.

She leaped high, wanting to throw herself into the Bear's arms.

But it was like running into a puddle of water.

"Ah!"

Bonney gasped.

Under the watchful eyes of Bulldog and Robin.

Bonney was completely "eaten" by the Bear.

The next moment.

The Bear's size gradually shrank until it was about the same height as Bonney, at which point it stopped.

The Bear Clay Doll completely enveloped Bonney, leaving not a single inch of her skin exposed.

Under Storm's careful control, the eye sockets of this Bear Clay Doll are empty—where there should have been a pair of frameless glasses.

Through these two holes.

Bonney's bright purple eyes can see the natural world around her.

"Wow! What's this? It looks just like Daddy!"

Bonney raised her right hand, looked at the several fleshy lumps in her palm, and then poked them with her left hand.

"I feel like I've become a dad!"

"Come over."

With a thought, Storm summoned the clay Bear Clay Doll and brought Bonney to him.

He then took out the sunglasses that Robin had just bought and put them on the Clay Doll Bear doll.

The surrounding clay held the sunglasses firmly in place, preventing them from falling off accidentally and sealing off any other tiny gaps.

From then on.

The Bear Armor Mech is fully completed!

"Bonney, I used my abilities to create a 'suit' for you, or rather, a 'clothes'."

Storm stopped controlling the Bear Clay Doll and let Bonney control it herself.

"You can try it out now to see how it works."

"Oh..."

Bonney was quite clumsy in piloting the "Bear Clay Mech".

The Bear—no, it should now be called the "Little Bear Armor Mech"—

Under Bonney's control, the Little Bear waved its arms, moved its legs, and wiggled its bottom, perfectly matching her every movement.

"Amazing!"

Wearing the Little Bear Armor Mech, Bonney ran wildly through the chapel.

Once she had adjusted, she looked at Storm again, asking with a mixture of hope and trepidation.

"Uncle... can I go outside now?"

Storm nodded slightly.

The little bear jumped three feet high in the church.

Under Storm's encouraging gaze.

The Little Bear, carrying Bonney, rushed into the sunlight!
