One Piece: Capture the Goddess and Become Stronger

"The Thunder Fruit... this power is truly unmatched. Why would a strong person like you tease us rookies?"

"Tease? No! I'm just doing an experiment. How can an experiment be linked to teasing? When you pirates set out to sea, you should have thought about the day when you will be teased in the future, right?"

"..." Hawkins was speechless. He asked himself about the sins he had committed. He was afraid that even if he was cut into pieces, he would never be able to pay for it.

"Let's end the experiment like this. When you get there, remember to say my name, Sayonara~Basil Hawkins!"

Qin Yun flashed above Hawkins' head, the dazzling lightning gathered in his eyes, and the next moment, it suddenly shot out!

"Damn it! Is this the end of my fate?" Hawkins' eyes were filled with whiteness at this moment. He regretted it very much. If he had known earlier, he would have taken out tarot cards to calculate his survival rate after reaching the island before going to the Sabaody Archipelago.

He never fights a battle without preparation, but today, due to a momentary negligence, he has fallen into such a desperate situation. How sad and lamentable!

Zhi——!

Hawkins' straw head could not withstand the overheated thunder and was instantly ignited, then exploded. The arrival of death forced him to return to human form. Under the pressure of blood vessels, his headless body spurted out the blood of the loser.

Qin Yun took advantage of the time when the straw fruit remained in Hawkins' body, plundered it with white thunder, and placed it in a treasure room inside the fortified city.

Bonnie, who witnessed the entire crushing battle, became even more afraid of Qin Yun. In such a short time, she was unable to wake up her uncles.

[Zi, Yuyu, Porto, Pat... We are finished! ]

"What's the end? My little Bonnie, are you afraid that I will kill you too?"

Qin Yun flashed back to Bonnie's side, and sat in the air openly. He held Bonnie, who was in child form, in his arms, poked her pretty face with his fingers, and teased her non-stop.

"Woo...what do you want to do? Stop teasing me!" Little Bonnie couldn't stand it anymore, and transformed into the adult form of Big Bonnie.

The sudden resistance caught Qin Yun off guard, and the finger he was poking at little Bonnie's face was crooked...

"I didn't tease you, it's just because you are so cute. I just want to get close to you and make friends with you~"

"Huh!? You actually think I'm cute when I was a child? Eh... I am indeed cute." Big Bonnie wanted to accuse Qin Yun of his perverted behavior, but she found that Qin Yun seemed to be right, she was the cutest girl in the world!

"Change back now, or I'll spank you until you agree!"

"Tsk! I won't listen to you!"

"Oh? I want to see how hard little Bonnie's mouth is. I guess she can't stand three hits..." Qin Yun said, raising his hand and pretending to spank her.

Bonnie was shocked. She felt like something serious was going to happen. She quickly shrank back to her girl form, muttering, "Stop, stop, stop! It's just a matter of changing back. I'll change."

Qin Yun then smiled, pinched her little face, and said softly: "So good! Little Bonnie, don't worry, I won't kill you, because you are one of my targets this time."

"I am one of your targets?" Bonnie looked suspicious. She pointed at the second floor and the remains of Capone Becky and Hawkins in the distance and muttered, "What are they?"

"They are just two unlucky guys with devil fruits. Don't worry about them. I am here to help you."

"Help me? I don't need help. You and I just met for the first time today, how could you know what I want!" Bonnie curled her lips. Qin Yun's words sounded like the tactics used to deceive a little girl. She is a grown-up girl now, how could she be deceived?

"Little Bonnie, you want to meet Bartholomew Bear, don't you?"

"What!? How did you know..."

Bonnie could no longer sit still, and no longer resisted Qin Yun's restless little hands on her face. She stood up and stared at him with her tearful eyes, as if she would cry if Qin Yun didn't say anything.

How long has she been out at sea?

The people who knew her background and the pirates around her were all elders whom she trusted 100%. Her purpose was actually known by a stranger. It is conceivable how surprised she was.

Qin Yun smiled but said nothing. When Bonnie showed a cute angry expression, he said, "Because I am very interested in Bartholomew Big Bear and have been secretly investigating his information. Your existence is an important intelligence I got in the process."

Qin Yun's excuse was very effective. Bonnie looked as if she understood it, and it was obvious that she believed what he said.

"How about it? Do you want to accept my help?"

"I..." Bonnie was silent for a moment. She went out to sea to find her father, but was the man in front of her really trustworthy? She asked this naively.

"How can I believe that you are here to help me find Bartholomew Bear? Instead of using me... to harm him."

Qin Yun shook his head. This little girl was really alert. He had told her everything he had found out from Daxiong, but she actually called her father by his full name in order to conceal her identity as a daughter.

"Don't be so vigilant in front of me. I know your relationship with Big Bear. We are not enemies, little Bonnie. Don't you understand? I can explain it to you so patiently. Can't you feel my kindness?

Bonnie was stunned. Look at your hands that keep kneading my little face. Is this how you express your kindness?

"Besides... you have no choice now! Right? From the moment I mentioned Bartholomew Big Bear, you must have made your decision."

"Otherwise, you might miss this opportunity to see your father..."

Bonnie was silent. Just as Qin Yun said, she couldn't find any trace of her father, so she couldn't refuse the olive branch thrown by Qin Yun!

"I see……"

A large crystal clear teardrop fell on the back of Qin Yun's hand at some point, and the next moment, it was ruthlessly wiped away by Bonnie's hand. Those were the tears of hardship she had experienced along the way, but how could she shed tears easily when she had failed to find her father!

"Help me! Onii-chan, as long as you can help me find my father, I will agree to anything you want, even... my favorite pizza! I'll give it all to you!"

"Huh!? Pizza? You should keep this for yourself!"

Qin Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really didn't know why Bonnie liked pizza so much. Was pizza a specialty of the Kingdom of Solby? Or was it Bartholomew Bear's specialty?
