Chapter 94 Fateful Night, Uncle B Declares War!
Alabasta, a border village.
The wrecked hull of the Bonnie lay diagonally on the beach like a stranded whale.
"Save him! Please, save my father!" Bonnie's cries were heart-wrenching.
Luffy was the first to rush forward: "Hey! Are you alright? Your father—"
"Chopper! Quick!" Ace reacted quickly and immediately called for the ship's doctor.
Chopper, the little reindeer, had already rushed over with a medical kit on his back, followed closely by Nami and Zoro, who were warily scanning Heracles and the surrounding environment.
Chopper quickly checked the bear's injuries, his little face turning pale instantly.
"The injuries are too severe! Multiple penetrating wounds, internal bleeding, and extremely weak vital signs! Is he a cyborg? Most of his machinery has been destroyed; he needs immediate deep surgery and repair!"
Chopper frantically rummaged through the medicine box: "Quick! Carry him to the village!"
Upon receiving the doctor's order, Bonnie and the crew prepared to exert their strength, only to find that the weight in their hands had vanished without a trace.
It turned out to be Roger and Little Sun. Roger easily lifted the bear up and ran away quickly.
Sun, however, dragged Chopper along and even arrived at a larger room in the village a step ahead of him.
"Ready for surgery!"
Bonnie sighed deeply; the current situation gave him a sense of hope.
Just as he knelt on the ground to relieve his tension, Luffy and Ace approached him with enthusiastic faces.
"Don't be afraid, our doctors will definitely save your father!"
Seeing the two men's incredibly confident and warm expressions, Bonnie nodded heavily, took their hands, and walked together into the village.
Time flies, the sunset fades quickly, leaving only the campfire at night.
After a three-hour emergency surgery, Chopper slowly emerged, his face serious.
Bonnie's heart sank to the bottom, and she trembled with immense panic.
She looked at Chopper, then glanced at Luffy, Ace, and the others around her.
"How is my father?!"
Chopper avoided Bonney's eyes: "His injuries are severe, and he lacks crucial medicine. There's none of that medicine in the village! We have to search in the nearby towns, otherwise—"
"What else would happen?" Bonnie's voice trembled slightly.
"Otherwise—even if they survive, they might lose their ability to move."
Bonnie's pupils contracted sharply. He walked into the operating room, his fingers gripping his father's cloak tightly. Tears fell onto his father's body.
She knew she was trapped in the quagmire of the Holy Grail War, surrounded by the Black Faction and the Navy, facing imminent danger.
"Thank you for your help. Please tell me where the nearest town is!"
Bonnie suddenly raised her head, her eyes still wet with tears, yet revealing a resolute determination.
"I'll go! I'll go to the city to find the medicine myself! I don't want to drag you all down with me."
"No!" Ace, Luffy, and Nami shouted almost simultaneously.
"It's too dangerous! There are enemies everywhere outside!" Zoro gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.
"How can a little girl like you go?" Nami asked anxiously.
"As a member of the Red Team, the Navy is definitely after you! Blackbeard and his crew are looking for you too!"
Bonnie bit her lower lip, her voice trembling with tears yet unusually firm.
"I know it's dangerous! But Father can't wait any longer! You all need to go and meet up with the others; we can't let Father delay everyone's important mission!"
She looked at Ace and Luffy.
"You are the main force of the Red Team, you can't be tied up here! I... I'm a smaller target, I can find a way to sneak in!"
Her words were so sensible that they were heartbreaking, and they also carried a heartbreaking sense of self-sacrifice.
In order not to burden these newly acquainted allies who were willing to help her, she actually decided to venture into the lion's den alone!
"Don't talk nonsense!" Ace growled, flames flickering in his palm.
"How could I let you go on such a dangerous journey!"
Luffy, unusually, didn't, but looked at Bonney with extremely serious eyes.
"We're in this together! What do you mean by being a burden!"
"But, but—" Bonnie's tears welled up.
"Leave it to us!" Luffy stood next to Ace, his fists clenched, his eyes extremely serious.
"Ace, the nearest town is Yuba, right? Let's take Uncle Roger and Little Sun there! We'll definitely get the medicine!"
Roger grinned and patted the sword at his waist.
"Haha, it's been so long since I've gone shopping in town! Perfect for stretching my muscles!"
Karna nodded slightly: "That is only to be expected."
However, their decision immediately caused concern among some villagers.
An older villager hesitated before speaking, "Lord Ace, Lord Luffy, we know you mean well."
"But to take such a huge risk to infiltrate a naval-guarded town for a few strangers we've just met—what if we expose our position and lure the enemy into the village—we—"
He didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear.
Other villagers also showed signs of worry and unease.
Luffy waved his hand dismissively, his smile still bright: "Uncle! Don't worry! We're pirates, we can help whoever we want! Besides, Bonney and her father are our crewmates now!"
Ace looked at the villagers with unwavering determination: "Don't worry, we'll be careful and won't bring trouble to the village! We'll be back as soon as we get the medicine!"
"Sir, please make a list, we'll be right back."
Seeing Luffy and Ace willing to take huge risks to go on an adventure for her father whom she didn't even know, Bonney was overwhelmed with emotion.
But at the same time, a sense of powerlessness that almost overwhelmed her also rose up.
Why am I so useless?
My father became like this to protect himself, and now he's dragging these kind people he just met into risking their lives!
But all I can do is wait here, unable to help in any way!
Overwhelmed by grief, helplessness, self-blame, and a profound sense of powerlessness, Bonnie's psychological defenses crumbled instantly.
As everyone prepared to leave, she knelt and lunged at the giant who had been standing outside the house like a mountain.
To everyone's astonishment, Bonnie opened her arms and used all her strength to hug Hercules's thick, steel-like legs.
Scalding tears gushed out, soaking the berserker's cold skin.
She buried her face in the other man's battle-worn legs and let out a heart-wrenching cry, her voice filled with desperate pleas for help.
"What should I do! What should I do?!"
"Father—Father needs medicine. Everyone—Everyone is going to risk their lives for me—"
"But I can't do anything—I'm so useless—. *sobs*"
Her cries, like a key, pierced deep into the berserk and cursed soul of Hercules.
Daughter! Protecting her! Powerless! Self-blame!
Bonnie's desperate cries at this moment overlapped with the night in his memory that was haunted by a curse.
Watching his wife and children die in madness, while he could only raise the butcher's knife, the heart-wrenching pain and helplessness echoed in his heart.
"—!!!"
The wounded beast let out a frenzied growl from its throat, its crimson eyes, burning with raging flames, flashing intensely.
Amidst the fury of fury, there was a sense of awakened sorrow and a rage that guarded hope!
He cannot allow it!
We must never let our "daughter" suffer this pain and despair again!
We must never allow the Guardians to fall into a hopeless situation again!
The next second, before anyone could react!
Hercules suddenly bent down, his enormous hand gently pushing away Bonnie, who was clinging to him and crying, and shielding her behind him.
Then, his mountain-like body burst forth with terrifying speed, like a crimson lightning bolt tearing through the air.
Towards a region completely opposite to the village and the town of Yuba lies a desolate and perilous rainforest.
He sprinted away at full speed!
He was moving so fast that every step he took left a huge crater in the ground and kicked up clouds of dust!
In just a few breaths, his figure became a small dot in the distance.
"Where did he go?" Nami asked, puzzled.
"Oh no! What is he going to do?" Zoro gripped his sword tightly.
Just as everyone was wondering, the distant little dot stopped.
then.
"roar!!!!!!!!!
A roar more violent than thunder, more powerful than a tsunami, seemingly tearing the sky apart and shattering the earth, erupted from the distant horizon like a world-ending torrent, sweeping across the land.
This roar was no longer just a simple rage; it contained the sorrow of an ancient demigod being moved.
Its ignited will to protect, its transformation, and its declaration to any enemy!
The sound wave transformed into a visible crimson shockwave, spreading wildly in all directions from Hercules' location!
Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!
Even though they were so far apart, the ground in the village still shook violently.
The rainforest undulated like waves, and the houses trembled!
The villagers huddled together in fear, while Luffy, Ace, and the others paled in shock, overwhelmed by the sheer fighting spirit and power emanating from them.
This roar was like a nuclear bomb thrown into a calm lake, instantly detonating the entire Alabasta!
In the royal capital of Albana, a golden pillar of light, as dazzling as the blazing sun, shot into the sky.
"Your Majesty! Is that dangerous aura truly that of our ally?"
Vivi, who was suddenly pulled up by La Er, was filled with horror.
Ramses II's majestic voice carried a hint of pleasure.
"Of course, the red and black have already begun their war, Master. That unrestrained roar is a declaration; by following the roar of that ferocious beast, we can find our allies."
Rainy Day Banquet.
A dark and profound aura of destruction permeated the air. Arjuna drew his divine bow, his icy voice carrying a sense of judgment.
"Master, the warrior has declared war. According to the law, the warrior must fight back! This pure madness and karma must also be cleansed."
A dark cave in the rainforest.
The Blackbeard Pirates gathered here, Blackbeard listened to the destructive roar, and the Earl made an unusual suggestion.
"What, aren't you going to join the fun, contractor?"
Somewhere in the rainforest, golden light shimmered.
Gilgamesh's arrogant laughter rang out: "Hahaha! You mongrel! This sounds like some noise that pleases me. I'll take your head!"
At the source of that roar, Hercules stood in the center of the deserted sea of sand, his crimson runes flowing like lava.
Those crimson beast eyes burned with destructive flames, locked onto the three powerful auras that soared into the sky.
He successfully drew attention to himself, keeping his distance from the village that needed protection and the helpless, weeping "daughter".
In the village, Bonnie's vision blurred again with tears.
This time, it wasn't despair, but rather a sense of awe and an indescribable feeling of security.
"He...he's protecting us," Nami murmured. "What an amazing guy!" Flames rose in Ace's eyes, his blood boiling.
"Alright! Now's the time!" Luffy roared, his rubber arms instantly extending to grab Ace and Roger.
"Yuba, let's go!"
