One Piece: Reborn in Ohara

In the afternoon,

Robin, as usual, came to Rob's shelter!

Only this time, Robin was holding a heavy book in her hand!

"Oni-chan, look!"

Enthusiastic, Robin showed the book to Rob,

With excitement on her face:

"This is a book that was read to me by an old man in the library of the Tree of Knowledge. The story in it is very interesting! Do you want me to read it to you, Oni-chan?"

Hearing this,

Rob looked at the book in Robin's hand and smiled:

"Good!"

Sitting on a small wooden stool,

Robin started reading the story from the book to Rob!

Speaking of which,

It's a little embarrassing—

Rob can't read the text of this world!

At this stage,

He is not in the mood to learn the characters of this world!

So—

The latest information that Rob can obtain at present is all from Robin's mouth!

Before,

Robin had never shown any interest in books because she spent a lot of time just trying to survive.

Now,

With Rob as her Oni-chan, she began to think about other things.

Reading and studying—

This is a nice interest!

Rob, who sincerely regards Robin as a younger sister, supports this wholeheartedly!

"Could it be that…"

Watching Robin shake her little feet while reading a story,

Rob's eyes flashed:

"Robin is wanted because she likes to read, and like those archaeologists on the island, she wanted to study the Poneglyph? Tsk... this possibility is very high!"

A year's time.

And in the archaeological mecca of Ohara!

It's not that Rob has never had contact with the people on the island. In the process, he learned a lot of specific information about the world from some residents and scholars on the island.

When he learned that the archaeologists of Ohara are constantly deciphering the historical truth and trying to uncover the secrets of the "Void Century",

Rob was quite speechless—

Without enough power to protect themselves, trying to challenge the World Government's authority is a dangerous game. It's no wonder Ohara wasn't destroyed sooner.

The demise of Ohara is inevitable!

There's no way to save this island!

And Rob has no intention of saving these islanders and scholars!

These people—

Clearly have a death wish!

Spending too much time with them would be stupid!

...

Time continued to flow.

What Rob does every day, remained the same—

Fighting with the beasts in the forest, hunting them, accumulating physical training, trying to strengthen various close combat techniques, and improving his strength!

Then,

Taking good care of Robin every day!

After several trips to town and teaching the little bullies who bothered Robin a lesson, including their parents, now no one bothers her in town anymore.

Besides,

Rob planned to teach Robin's host family a lesson!

However,

She stopped him.

But anyway, Robin's treatment in that family improved a lot!

And Robin—

Every day she goes to the library of the Tree of Knowledge to study, then she comes to Rob, and then she goes home. Occasionally, she rests in Rob's shelter!

Not long after Rob made a fuss in town,

Robin also took the initiative to tell Rob that she has a Devil Fruit power!

And Rob didn't alienate her at all like Robin thought he might, or regard her as a monster. Instead, he often looked enviously at her when she used her Devil Fruit ability!

Because of this,

Robin felt a little puzzled, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't want to be alienated by Rob or have their relationship ruined because of her Devil Fruit powers!

As for her doubts?

Rob really wanted to tell Robin—

As a traverser,

Who could say no to a Devil Fruit with superpowers?

Unfortunately,

Devil Fruits are rare, and powerful ones are even rarer.

...

Half a year passed.

This day,

In the forest—

Roar!

A huge bear roared angrily, with powerful forelimbs and claws, it ruthlessly moved towards Rob, trying to grab him fiercely!

Bang—

A huge paw print smashed into the ground.

But Rob had already dodged it.

Swish—

He jumped up.

Rob's fist directly hit the side of the bear's body, slamming it hard!

Bang—

The punch hit the giant bear solidly, making it stumble back a few steps with a grin!

Roar!

After being punched, the giant bear became even angrier.

Roaring, it rushed towards Rob!

Seeing the giant bear charging at him,

Rob looked serious:

"Rough skin and thick flesh, really resistant to beating!"

Just when Rob was concentrating on the giant bear's movement, he seemed to sense its attacking intention in a trance.

Then,

He subconsciously dodged in advance!

Bang—

Immediately afterward,

The giant bear's paw fell to the ground next to him, narrowly missing him.

Taking this opportunity,

Rob's backhand delivered an uppercut, slamming the bear's jaw hard and knocking it down to the ground!

"The feeling just now was—"

At this moment,

Rob's face was filled with surprise:

"Observation Haki? Hahaha!"

Absolutely can't go wrong—

The ability to predict the attack by sensing the bear's intent is undoubtedly the power of Observation Haki!

The second talent he unlocked half a year ago—Peerless Haki, had come into play.

Now—

Rob's Observation Haki had naturally awakened.

And as soon as it did, Rob felt he could control Observation Haki freely, even covering a large area!

"As expected of 'Peerless Haki'!"

Rob subconsciously sighed,

Then he looked at the giant bear, which stood up again, shaking its head and looking fiercely at him:

"Next, I'll use you to practice my Observation Haki!"

Swish—

Rob's body rushed toward the giant bear without attacking, and under its various attacks, he constantly used Observation Haki to predict its moves and easily dodged them, exercising his newfound ability!

This thrilling feeling—

Rob was fascinated!

Now,

He could understand why some strong people were obsessed with fighting opponents who were evenly matched or even stronger than themselves!

Because fighting—

It really makes those who can enjoy it feel excited and happy!
