SharePoint site URLs usually take the following format:
https://companyname.sharepoint.com/sites/SharePointSiteName/
To view all the files you have access to, add the following to the above URL:
Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx?
The final URL should look like this:
https://companyname.sharepoint.com/sites/SharePointSiteName/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx?
Entering that URL into a web browser - Edge works best, for obvious reasons - should give you a listing of all the SharePoint files you have access to. From there you can add a shortcut to your OneDrive, which then makes all those files easily accessible from your OneDrive folder in File Explorer! Note that the initial listing will be the main Documents library. To access other libraries, click the book icon to the right of Documents and select from the dropdown menu.
Note that this will work only for sites whose files you have permissions to view. If you don't have said permissions, this method won't work. The instructions also assume you're not a member of the SharePoint site or corresponding Team.
If you are a member, then you should be able to access all the libraries via conventional means. My preferred way of doing that is to open Microsoft Teams -> Click Teams -> Click on the Team corresponding to the SharePoint -> Click the Files tab -> Click Documents below that.

Hey, I don't think this will wonna work. If you specify that this URL will make you see all files that you have access under "Shared Documents" folder it's fine. But, what happens with the existing documents in other libraries? Will this URL work?
I updated the post with additional information in the last 3 paragraphs to address your question.
