Chapter 23: Failed petrification, occupying Amazon Lily ()

"What did you say?"

In the empty palace, Hancock, who had just finished bathing, stopped and looked at Sandersonia behind her.

"That man said... this island was divided under his name by the World Government, and he will become the new owner of this country."

After repeating it honestly again, Sandersonia asked: "Snake Princess-sama, what should we do?"

Hancock walked forward without looking back: "Drive him out."

"But......"

Sandersonia coughed awkwardly: "The other party's strength is a bit strong, all our people were knocked down."

As Hancock's sister, Sandersonia naturally understood what kind of personality she had.

Just after getting the news from Marguerite, she sent people to drive the other party away.

As a result, the other party's strength was higher than she imagined; not only did he easily defeat the warriors of Amazon Lily, but he even walked in swaggeringly.

She had no good way, so she came to find Hancock to see her attitude.

"All knocked down?"

Hancock, who was already prepared to return to her room, paused.

This was a bit beyond her expectations.

Due to the geographical environment of Amazon Lily and the national style that advocates strength, almost every warrior has two types of Haki.

Especially the members of the pirate group who followed her to sea, each one of them was powerful.

Even these people couldn't stop the other party, then this so-called special envoy was indeed not simple.

"Where is he now?"

Sandersonia hesitated: "......The top floor of the palace."

Hancock: "?"

The top floor of the palace, that is where the owner of this country lives.

In other words, that is her room.

"Knowing that he will die, so he chose a good place."

Spreading those long white legs, Hancock walked towards the upper floor of the palace.

"Tidy up the guest room, I'm changing rooms today."

"Yes!"

"Please wait! Snake Princess-sama!"

Just as Hancock was walking up, an old woman suddenly jumped out from the North North North Side and stopped her.

"Elder Nyon?"

Hancock glanced at her: "Why are you here."

"Of course, to see you."

Elder Nyon coughed and said: "Snake Princess-sama, I know you are very angry now, but please stay calm."

"That man is a special envoy of the World Government, he absolutely cannot die here!"

Hancock's gaze became cold: "So you want me to accept his boring request and let him do whatever he wants?"

"Of course not, it's just that there is still room for maneuver in this matter."

Elder Nyon said: "In fact, even if you let him become the owner of the island, others will not recognize him."

"Whether it is to ignore him after being sidelined, or to lock him directly into a prison cell, they are all good choices."

"But once killed, there is really no turning back!"

Amazon Lily is located in the Calm Belt next to the Grand Line.

Because there are huge Sea Kings in the Calm Belt, ordinary ships cannot enter the waters near Amazon Lily.

Relying on this advantage, Amazon Lily has always lived a life away from the world.

But ever since the Navy invented Seastone technology, all this has changed.

By embedding Seastone in the bottom of the ship, it emits the fluctuations of the sea, allowing giant Sea King monsters to ignore it.

With this technology, the Navy gained the power to travel freely through the Calm Belt.

Amazon Lily, which had always been transcendent from the outside world, was naturally targeted by the other party.

Now it was Hancock who signed the agreement and became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, which protected the peace of this island.

But if Hancock took action, the Navy might take the opportunity to tear up the agreement.

"Although I don't fear death, there are still many innocent people on the island!"

"For their safety, you must stay calm!"

"Why should I care about their safety."

Facing Elder Nyon's proposal, Hancock denied it without any hesitation: "Move aside, don't block the way."

"But......"

"It's okay."

Hancock brushed her smooth black hair, and an arrogant look appeared on her face.

"I am so beautiful, they will forgive my choice."

"Wait a minute! Snake Princess-sama!"

"So annoying, Elder Nyon."

This time, Hancock didn't give the other party a chance to speak.

Grabbing the other party's collar, she threw her out directly through the window.

"I am the owner of this country, old antiques don't come to make trouble."

"That's really overbearing."

Just as Hancock was about to continue moving forward, a teasing voice suddenly came from the front.

"Pirate Empress, it really lives up to its reputation."

"Are you that special envoy?"

Hancock looked at the man who appeared out of nowhere in front of her.

Being able to hide from her perception, the other party's strength was indeed not simple.

But for the battle-hardened Hancock, she had experienced similar situations.

Raising her hands, Hancock, who had no intention of communicating, made a heart gesture towards Lin Que.

"Bow down to my beauty! Mero Mero Mellow!"

The heart-shaped light fell, covering Lin Que in an instant.

But unexpectedly, Lin Que was not affected at all.

"How is this possible?!"

Sandersonia, standing to the North North North Side, widened her eyes in disbelief.

Facing Hancock, who had eaten the Mero Mero Fruit, any existence that developed feelings of infatuation for her would be petrified.

She had watched Lin Que's performance along the way from a distance.

This kind of man had never hidden his own desires.

"Why are you okay?!"

"Maybe it's because I'm a very upright person?"

Lin Que said words he didn't even believe himself.

In fact, Hancock's ability didn't take effect simply because the power wasn't enough.

As a pure-blooded dragon, he had a strong resistance to such negative abilities.

With Hancock's power, it was naturally impossible to break through this layer of defense and petrify him.

"Still not stopping?"

Lin Que looked at Hancock, who didn't believe in evil and fired two more Mero Mero Mellows.

"I am now the owner of this country."

"Attacking me, your King, as a subordinate, will constitute a crime, you know."

"Perfume Femur!"

After confirming that her fruit ability had failed, Hancock chose a physical attack this time.

Her slender beautiful legs were attached with Armament Haki and smashed straight towards Lin Que.

"Really, why are you so stubborn."

Reaching out to catch the other party's long legs, Lin Que raised an eyebrow.

"It seems necessary to discipline you properly."
