Chapter 189

The sound of thunder echoed over Amazon Lily.

A bolt of lightning landed outside the gates of Hancock's palace, revealing Lin Yu and Sandersonia.

Walking toward the bedchamber where Hancock was, Lin Yu ordered directly:

"Have everyone inside the palace withdraw."

Sandersonia asked in shock, "Is my sister's illness that serious?"

Lin Yu said indifferently: "No, it's just that I don't want to be watched by others while I'm using my ability."

"Uh..."

Sandersonia was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran ahead. "I'll go take the others away right now."

She thought Lin Yu wanted to keep the secret that he could use multiple abilities.

By the time Lin Yu arrived at Hancock's bedchamber, Sandersonia had already cleared everyone out of the palace.

Glancing at Sandersonia and Marigold, who were guarding Boa Hancock, Lin Yu said expressionlessly: "You two leave as well."

"Hmph!"

Hearing Lin Yu's voice, the unconscious Boa Hancock groaned in pain.

"...Alright." Sandersonia and Marigold exchanged glances, walked out of Hancock's bedchamber, and stood guard outside the door.

Once the two sisters left, only Lin Yu and Boa Hancock remained in the vast bedchamber.

Looking at Boa Hancock, who was lying on the bed with a flushed face and unconscious, Lin Yu sat down to the side and said:

"Hancock..."

As soon as he spoke, Boa Hancock groaned in pain again.

Seeing this, Lin Yu shook his head and laughed.

He had just checked Hancock's friendliness toward him, and to his surprise, it had reached over 80 points.

You have to know, when Hancock saw him during the day, her friendliness was only around 30 points.

Now, Lin Yu could finally confirm that Hancock was indeed ill because of him, and it was the same lovesickness unique to Amazon Lily as in the original story.

Regarding this situation, Lin Yu could understand it a little.

The novel *The Lady of the Camellias* he read in his past life once said: "To capture a heart that has not been attacked is like capturing a city without guards."

Although Boa Hancock was the Empress of Amazon Lily, she had never really had deep contact with other men, so after a little deep contact with Lin Yu, it was very easy for her to develop feelings for him.

Just like the Queen of the Women's Kingdom in *Journey to the West* falling in love with Tang Sanzang at first sight, or the Little Dragon Maiden in *The Return of the Condor Heroes* falling for Yang Guo.

Of course, this was just Lin Yu's guess; he didn't know for sure if it was true.

Coming to Boa Hancock's side, Lin Yu reached out and pressed his hand on her burning forehead.

Purify!

As the light of purification shone from Lin Yu's hand, Boa Hancock gradually woke up from her unconscious state.

Seeing Lin Yu sitting beside her, Boa Hancock blinked her eyes, the temperature on her face, which had just subsided, rose again, and she instantly pulled the quilt over her face.

"You, how are you here..." Hancock's muffled voice came from under the quilt.

Lin Yu sat on the chair by the bed, looking at Hancock, who was hiding under the covers like a turtle, and smiled:

"I heard you were ill, so Sonia asked me to come and take a look."

Hancock revealed half of her head from the quilt, opened her big eyes, and asked:

"What illness do I have?"

Lin Yu rested his chin on one hand, looked at Hancock, and smiled:

"Lovesickness."

"Uh..." Hancock's face turned red, and then she slowly retracted her head back into the quilt, continuing to be a shrinking turtle.

Hancock still had some impression of what had just happened to her.

Seeing this, Lin Yu poured himself a cup of tea and smiled:

"Hancock, do you want revenge on the Celestial Dragons?"

If Hancock wanted to kill a Celestial Dragon, Doflamingo was a good target.

"I do!" Hancock's very firm voice came from under the quilt.

Lin Yu took a sip of tea and smiled:

"Then I'll find a way to help you capture a Celestial Dragon. Do you dare to kill one?"

This time, no sound came from the quilt.

Seeing this, Lin Yu sighed softly.

It seems Hancock's psychological trauma regarding the Celestial Dragons is quite severe.

However, this is quite right.

The Celestial Dragons have ruled this world for hundreds of years; in the pirate world, there are many pirates, and many powerful ones at that.

But those who can resist and are willing to resist the Celestial Dragons are truly few and far between.

Because even the Four Emperors, in order to maximize their own interests, have not explicitly resisted the Celestial Dragons.

And the Revolutionary Army only opposes the World Government; so far, they have not done anything to resist the Celestial Dragons.

For hundreds of years, the only person to openly resist the Celestial Dragons was the Fish-Man Fisher Tiger.

And now, there is one more: Lin Yu.

After a long while, Hancock's voice came from the quilt:

"I don't dare to kill a Celestial Dragon. Will you look down on me..."

"No." Lin Yu shook his head firmly.

Most people choose to escape when facing their psychological trauma.

Escaping is shameful, but it is truly useful; Hancock's approach is not something to be blamed.

Then, Hancock revealed half of her head from the quilt again, looked at Lin Yu, and asked:

"Why are you helping me?"

Lin Yu had shown her great kindness from the very beginning; Hancock was very clear about this.

Lin Yu smiled, looked at Hancock, and said seriously:

"Because I have taken a liking to you and want you to be my woman."

Feeling Lin Yu's predatory gaze, Hancock hid back in the quilt and said in a muffled voice:

"Do... do you really not mind that I was once a slave?"

The experiences during her time as a slave were Hancock's eternal psychological trauma, so even though she knew Lin Yu didn't care, she still wanted to confirm it repeatedly.

Lin Yu put down his teacup and said firmly:

"Of course. You are the woman I am determined to have."

Hancock stretched half her head out of the quilt, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Yu, and asked:

"Really?"

Powerful, unafraid of authority, unafraid of the Celestial Dragons, and not caring about her past as a slave.

These were the true reasons why Hancock had fallen for Lin Yu.

Lin Yu walked to Hancock's bedside and said seriously: "Of course it's true."

"What... what do you want to do?"

Seeing Lin Yu's actions, Hancock felt nervous; she wanted to run, but she didn't want to run.

"I want to make you my woman."

Lin Yu cupped Hancock's pretty face and leaned in.

"Mmm..."

Hancock pushed him away symbolically twice.

A few minutes later, she suddenly pushed Lin Yu away and said quickly:

"My second and third sisters are still at the door."

Sandersonia and Marigold were both users of Observation Haki; they couldn't be kept in the dark about what was happening in the bedchamber.

Lin Yu shrugged and said:

"Isn't that even better?"

Having said that, he kissed Boa Hancock again.
