Chapter 43: Ineffective 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 straight-forwardly, Sandersonia asked: "Sister, 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 the other party had.
Just after getting the news from Marguerite, she sent someone 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 the other party's 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 out to sea, each one was powerful.
Even these people couldn't stop the other party, so 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 was the location where the owner of this country lived.
In other words, that was her room.
"Knowing he will die, so he chose a good place."
Striding with those long white legs, Hancock walked towards the upper floor of the palace.
"Tidy up the guest room, I'll change rooms today."
"Yes!"
"Please wait! Snake Princess!"
Just as Hancock was walking up, an old woman suddenly jumped out from the side and stopped her.
"Elder Nyon?"
Hancock glanced at her: "Why are you here."
"Of course to see you."
Elder Nyon coughed: "Snake Princess, 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 this matter still has room for maneuver."
Elder Nyon said: "In fact, even if he becomes the owner of the island, others will not recognize him."
"Whether it is to sideline him and ignore him, or directly lock him in a prison cell, they are both 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 since the Marines invented Seastone technology, all this has changed.
By embedding Seastone in the bottom of the ship, it emits the fluctuations of the sea, making giant Sea King monsters ignore it.
With this technology, the Marines 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 Marines might take the opportunity to tear up the agreement.
"Although I don't fear death, there are still many innocent people on the island!" ===== CHAPTER 45 =====
