Chapter 157
Title: Boa Hancock (2)
....
At the grandline, somewhere in the Calm Belt, 10 Marine ships were seen floating in the calm sea, not moving in the slightest. That was because there was no one there to make the transit of the ship, and the only people on the ship were the Kuja Pirates and the Ocean Emperor.
After removing the marines from the ship and freeing the Boa brothers. Amon was talking to Hancock in a dark cell, there was only 1 window on it.
Today Hancock is wearing the red dress she was seen wearing in her first appearance in Anime, she is also wearing a robe.
Amon looked at Hancock and suggested, "Then we should free your people first. After that, I plan to turn the ship around and return to Amazon Lily."
Hancock opened her mouth, she wanted to say something but no one came out, after a few tries, she finally shut her mouth. 'I never thought I'd care about them ...'
Hancock was talking about the Kuja people.
Boa Hancock doesn't think much about the Kuja. He did not care whether it was destroyed or not. However, today, when that was about to happen, his heart did not allow him to act as he normally would, cold and selfish.
'They are my people, if they are arrested, and punished, I won't allow it, I don't need dirty world governments to punish them because of me.' Hancock used this as an excuse and nodded to herself.
While Amon patiently waited for him to speak, Hancock opened her mouth. "I understand, but the marine reinforcements have arrived at Amazon Lily, they may have captured the remaining Kuja. I know you're very fast, so I want you to go and save them."
Unwittingly, Hancock is talking to Amon in a commanding tone. He forgot the man in front of him was the Ocean Emperor.
He continued. "In the meantime, I will go and free Kuja on these ships, After that I will go to Amazon Lily along with these 10 ships, she said, it will take me about 2 days to reach it. You can go now—"
Amon suddenly cut him off. "Pfft.." he laughed out loud as he glanced at Hancock's confused face. "Surprisingly sounds like you're commanding me, Pirate Empress. Pay attention to your tone, it's not me who has a lower grade here."
"..." - ".Boa Hancock remained silent, she suddenly realized that she was right, it was her fault. Normally, she could get out of this situation thanks to her beauty, but this man was different from the others. 'After my defeat against the old Marine woman, the confidence I once had in my beauty has diminished.'
Still, Amon did not seem angry at him. He knew for sure, if it was another Emperor, they would have hurt him for talking like that to them, or at least yelling at him. He knows this fact very well.
An almost invisible smile crept onto his face. "He's not at all like the others."
After looking into Amon's eyes for a moment, he said with a polite bow, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, I don't realize who I'm talking to."
Both Boa sisters were terrified. "Sister!"
Boa Hancock continued as if she had not heard them. "I will repeat my words. Will you go and save the Kuja tribe?"
Amon sneered in his mind. Oh, how happy it is to make such an arrogant person like him say the word 'please'.
He lightly shook his head. "No need to worry, I've already sent Raki there. He must be freeing your people when we talk."
Hancock raised her head and asked, "Raki?"
"She was a girl in her late teens, you'll meet her once you get there" Amon replied as he walked out of the cell. "By the way, follow me to another cell."
An invisible wrinkle appeared on Hancock's pretty face. 'A girl...'
«...★...»
Just like that, 2 days passed.
Amon and Hancock are headed for Amazon Lily. Meanwhile, on the New World side, something more interesting happened with the group of Emperors.
"Gurarara, son, are you here to challenge me ? " The deep and old voice of the Strongest Living Man flowed through the sea as the Whitebeard Pirates crew laughed.
"Pops, let's take care of it," Marco said from the side while looking ahead at the Beginner's face.
The Whitebeard Pirates are resting on a tree-lined island, a forest. But to think a rookie Pirate crew would dare to come here and challenge the Strongest Man himself.
Marco's pineapple-like face became startled as he blinked. "Pops! Is this destiny?!"
Whitebeard did not reply, he just laughed. He wanted to say anything but before he could, the atmosphere around him suddenly heated up.
A voice filled with determination seduced, "I will defeat you, Whitebeard!"
It was the voice of Ace, the Heavenly Emperor's pawn. He had managed to reach the Strongest Person, just a few seconds before he was destroyed.
As he rushed forward, Whitebeard grinned and prepared his fist which was coated in the power of «Quake» .
....
Ace had been searching for the Whitebeard Pirates for a while now, however, he was unable to find them at all.
Still, he was the son of the luckiest man in the past, his luck led him to this island where no human should have reached him.
To his surprise, he found them, the Whitebeard Pirates, resting here. It was another surprise for him to see how the pirate crew was so happy and cheerful, but it was not too much of a problem.
'I must follow the plan made by the Fool for me at the cost of his life.' Motive clear. 'I have to join the Whitebeard Pirates, at any cost.'
Yes, he is determined. And the best way for him to achieve that goal was to challenge the strongest person still alive and make him accept it. As Fool said.
Thinking of this, he approached Whitebeard.
Yet...
Inside the small ball surrounding the first Whitebeard, the Space crackled and erupted violently, cracks in the space were visible to the naked eye. More cracks appeared in the air as his fist smashed into Ace's chest.
Ace's eyes widened as he realized he was losing even before the fight started. "Thinking one blow to the chest is enough to knock me down."
Coughing up blood and flying a few meters back, Ace understood – Whitebeard was also a monster, a monster of the level of the Strongest Being.
While the light barely entered his eyes, he saw a large hand asking to be held.
"You, be my son." A deep voice from Whitebeard flowed in his ears.
Ace grinned inwardly as he felt his adrenaline dissipate and lost consciousness. Of course, even so, he did not forget to grab that big hand.
«...★...»
On the other hand, in Marine Ford, Fleet Admiral Sengoku was in his office. He often sighed deeply while working on some papers.
Suddenly, he put down the pen aggressively. "It's frustrating ..."
It had been two days since he got word from Tsuru or the reinforcements. Needless to say, he was aware of what might have happened.
"But why?" He questioned himself. Tsuru reports she caught half of Kuja and is on her way here. What caused her to suddenly disappear?
The most likely answer is natural disasters. The small possibility is that someone ambushed them – is less likely because Tsuru is strong.
Sengoku did not know what to do from this. 'The higher-ups are suppressing me like never before.'
First, a few days ago, there was news of a fight between Kaido and an unknown man. The spies implanted in the beast pirates told me that Kaido lost an eye in that battle. And now, the loss of a powerful Marine with the potential failure of an important mission.
'Still, I was curious enough to know who was strong enough to do that to Kaido.' In his mind, Sengoku had several names, but from a broader perspective, it seemed impossible.
'Also Kizaru...' Sengoku breathed. 'He was also very dissatisfied with his prostate arm. Mostly because of the ridicule he got from Zephyr .'
Finally, thinking that he needed a breath, Sengoku stood up. He said as he walked to the door, "Also that Garp, he was also acting hot-tempered because the boy was Ace. 200 Million Belly prize.he is the pirate known today. Sigh, God help me."
