The Tyrant's Reputation Takes a Hit!

"Ooh ooh ooh--"

The Little Bear raced freely in the sunlight, while Bonney inside let out a loud and passionate scream.

This wasn't the first time Bonney had ever been able to be in the sun.

But this was definitely the first time she had run freely in the sunlight since the appearance of "Azure Jade Scales"!

Joni Bonney will always remember running in the sun today; it was the freedom she had lost and regained...

The Little Bear continued its journey.

Bonney's strange screams attracted the attention of the other elderly people who lived next to the chapel.

"Wow! Look who's that? A child who looks exactly like King Bear!"

"They look like they were made from the same mold! Like a smaller version of the Bear King!"

"Could it be that King Bear had another son after giving birth to Bonney? He's incredibly fertile..."

Unwittingly, Bear's reputation suffered.

Inside the chapel.

Bulldog brought over the luggage he had just prepared, which contained Bonney's personal belongings and a large amount of food.

"On behalf of the people, I sincerely thank you for everything you have done for this country, Storm."

"Save your breath, Bulldog. The best way for you to express your gratitude is to govern this country well for the Bear."

Storm waved to Bulldog, and a Blue-Eyes White Dragon emerged from the floor of the chapel, silently carrying the bundle.

See you again sometime!

Storm and Robin turned and left without looking back.

The Little Bear is still running.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon flapped its wings, flew over, and snatched the little bear in its mouth.

"Waaaaah--"

Bonney let out a scream.

But after the Blue-Eyes White Dragon carried her into the sky, she laughed happily again.

"Haha! Fly higher! Fly even higher! Woohoo--"

"Quiet down, Bonney."

Storm scratched his ear. How come he hadn't noticed before that this kid could shout so much?

"We're about to start accelerating."

"Accelerate?"

Bonney, wearing the Bear-themed mech, ran to Storm's side.

How can we speed it up?

"Acceleration is..."

Before Storm could finish speaking, a ripple suddenly appeared on the back of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, revealing an entrance.

Caught off guard, Bonney fell into the hole.

But thanks to the cushioning effect of the soft clay, she wasn't hurt at all, and instead thought Storm was just playing with her.

"Giggle giggle..."

The little girl burst into joyful laughter.

"It's so dark here! Turn on the lights! Turn on the lights now!"

Pat-pat--

As if receiving some kind of command, the surrounding space instantly brightened up with a series of special sound effects.

Bonney looked around and found that this was a huge space, much larger than the chapel, like a grand hall.

The light source for the space was not the candlelight or electric lamp that Bonney had imagined, but rather seashells that emitted light.

Lamp Dial, a specialty of Sky Island.

This space is actually the belly of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

Storm specifically modified it into its current form to facilitate long-distance ocean voyages.

If we say the Blue-Eyes White Dragon is a "ship".

So, the dragon's belly is the "cabin" of the ship.

Storm and Robin came down from above and saw Bonney, full of curiosity, touching and poking around, looking very energetic.

Snap!

Storm snapped his fingers.

Bonney's "Bear Mech" immediately blended into its surroundings.

Even her sunglasses were taken along with the clay and placed on a porcelain shelf to the side.

"Huh?"

Bonney realized she had returned to normal and made a sound of confusion.

"Uncle, where's that piece of clothing?"

Storm casually remarked, "You don't need to wear that armor here..."

"No! I want that dress! I want that dress!"

Bonney ran to Storm's side and, without any instruction, learned to act cute, tugging at his clothes and shaking him back and forth.

"I absolutely love that outfit! It's just like Dad's clothes!"

Storm pinched his nose and made Bonney a Bear Clay Doll to distract her.

"Little Daddy!"

Bonney didn't care about dolls or anything like that.

She saw a small Bear appear nearby, immediately abandoned Storm, and ran over.

Children are just children after all.

After playing for a while, Bonney was exhausted and fell fast asleep, hugging the Bear Clay Doll.

Upon seeing this, Robin immediately turned off some of the Lamp Dial, instantly reducing the brightness in the entire "Dragon Cabin" significantly.

Only then did she mention Bonney's illness, but her tone remained extremely soft.

"Captain, are those scales on Bonney's face the 'Azure Jade Scales' you mentioned before?"

"Yes, it's a rather rare genetic disease, and it's quite troublesome to treat. Fortunately, we've finally found a 'doctor'."

Storm, recalling the Vinsmoke family, Gage the subject.

"You could barely call him a 'doctor'."

Robin had already been told the destination of this journey.

Germa 66.

The legendary evil legion from the North Blue...

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon flew at high speed high in the sky.

This took almost a whole day.

It was only after Storm and his two companions traveled from the Sorbet Kingdom in the South Blue to the Oykot Kingdom in the East Blue China Sea that they arrived.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon entered the East Blue and slowed down.

Storm, Robin, and Bonney, dressed in the "Bear" costume, stand together on the head of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

Below, on the sea near the island, several enormous snails were neatly arranged.

They look like super Den Den Mushi) magnified a thousand times.

Each giant snail carries a small piece of land on its shell, and on this land, fortresses are built.

Snails pieced together, landmasses connected, and fortresses assembled into a magnificent, pointed castle.

At the top of the tower in the central castle stands a huge flag bearing the words [GERMA 66].

This is Germa 66, the mercenary kingdom from the North Blue.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon slowly descended.

At the same time.

The group of Bear and his companions, who were visiting Germa 66, also noticed the incredibly familiar Blue-Eyes White Dragon in the sky.

Bear used the power of the [Nikyu Nikyu no Mi] immediately, slamming himself towards the Blue-Eyes White Dragon in the sky.

Bang!

In a short moment, the Bear flew from the Germa Kingdom's Castle onto the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's body.

To be precise, it "bumped" into the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon bears a large bear paw print on its body, a side effect of the Bear's power.

"Is it that urgent? You brought yourself here."

Storm manipulated the clay, repairing the Blue-Eyes White Dragon while simultaneously pulling the Great Bear onto its head.

Bonney! Huh?

The Bear arrived at the dragon's head, intending to see his daughter, but instead saw...

A smaller version of myself?

Aside from the different styles and colors of the glasses.

The "Little Bear" is indistinguishable from a real Bear.

Even the spots on their felt hats were all exactly the same in position and shape.

This is the illusionary ability of the [Nine-Tails Fox Fruit].

As long as you touch the target, you can perfectly replicate its appearance.

The Bear was stunned.

Bonney, however, was not stunned.

"Dad!"

Little Bear let out a joyful cheer and leaped into Bear's arms.

I miss you so much!

"Bonney!"

As soon as he heard his daughter's voice, Bear recognized it instantly. He hugged Bonney tightly, tears streaming down his face.

"My daughter! Your illness can finally be cured!"

Robin looked at the scene before him, a father and daughter embracing and expressing their emotions.

"Captain, isn't Mr. Bartholomew actually a very gentle man?"

"He's 'too' gentle!"

Storm smirked and controlled the Blue-Eyes White Dragon to fly in front of the giant snail of the Germa Kingdom.

Kid and Killer were shouting and gesturing wildly in front of the Germa Kingdom's Castle.

Beside them stood a tall man.

He wore a metal helmet, had long golden hair, was dressed in a uniform, and had a serious expression.

King of the Germa Kingdom, Supreme Commander of Germa 66, Vinsmoke Gage.

'Is this the White Dragon?'

Gage looked up at the mythical creature soaring freely in the sky, and his pupils involuntarily contracted slightly.

'The new Shichibukai has defeated the King of Lizards and succeeded him!'

Gage's mind flashed to Vongola Storm and the corresponding bounties for "White Dragon".

To be honest.

Gage couldn't understand.

A monster who defeated two of the Shichibukai the Sea doesn't even have a bounty of 100 million Beli?

However, at this moment, he saw Vongola Storm and his "White Dragon" in person.

Gage's heart was filled with only another confusion.

Why is the bounty on this White Dragon, who is almost bigger than his Germa Kingdom, only 9500 Beli?

Not even 10,000 Beli!

Are the people in the World Government and Marine Headquarters blind?

But Gage quickly understood why the bounty on the Blue-Eyes White Dragon was so low.

As the Blue-Eyes White Dragon drew closer, its size decreased.

When Storm and his companions set foot on the territory of the Germa Kingdom...

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon, which seemed to have descended from mythology into the real world, actually transformed into a baby dragon the size of a house cat.

But this... shouldn't be a living being, right?

"Nice to meet you, White Dragon. Please take care of me."

Gage cleared his mind of distractions and stepped forward to greet him.

His attitude wasn't exactly enthusiastic, but there was nothing to criticize either.

"Vongola Storm"

Storm nodded in response to Gage.

"Dr. Gage, I have long admired your name."

"I've brought the patient over. Would you like to have a check-up first?"

"Is this the Tyrant's daughter?"

Gage glanced around and spotted the "Little Bear," which looked exactly like the Bear, and casually exchanged a polite greeting.

She looks exactly like her father.

"He truly inherited his father's excellent genes and robust physique."
