Chapter 345 Hancock Taken Down

Are you sure it's today?

"It's for today! It's shown on the map!"

"But!" Hancock pondered the distance between Alabasta and Kuja. Was this speed too fast?

This is the Calm Belt!

"I want to see who's playing tricks on me!" Although she had drunk the red bean tea and experienced its effects, Hancock still didn't believe there was such a good thing in the world that someone would be so eager to give money to Kuja.

There must be some other conspiracy!

When that Rizhao Logistics ship arrives, I'll detain their people first, and then take their supplies. That way, no matter what their schemes are, we Nine Serpents won't suffer any losses!

Twenty minutes later, Margaret, holding binoculars, suddenly shouted, "They're here! They're here!"

Hancock immediately focused her mind and saw a very small boat sailing on the sea as if it were flying.

There seemed to be no one on that ship!

wrong!

As the ship drew closer, Hancock realized that it wasn't a ship at all, and that it had wings.

Hancock frowned and quickly activated her Observation Haki to observe, but she still couldn't scan anyone!

"A strange bird without people??"

How did this strange bird move and adjust its direction when there was no human presence or sails?

With wings, how can it possibly fly?

A moment later, the strange-looking machine docked at the shore.

Then, a door on the side of the machine slowly opened, revealing a storage compartment containing a large stack of pele.

"The goddess of wisdom said, 'Take out the money and put the goods on it!'" Margaret said.

"No rush!" Hancock frowned and asked, "Ask Athena what this thing is and how it moves?"

"Athena says this is called a hydrogen-powered unmanned ground effect vehicle!" Margaret said. "This thing uses hydrogen combustion for power, it's powered by that jet nozzle at the back!"

Hancock blinked, completely confused.

What is hydrogen? What is the Earth effect?

I know about aircraft, but are there really any flying devices in this world?

Or perhaps, what kind of Devil Fruit creation is this?

"Should we put the red beans on top?" Margaret asked.

"Take the money out and see if you have enough!" Hancock said.

Margaret quickly called the female warriors to board the spacecraft to retrieve the money. The thing looked small from a distance, but it was actually quite large; it could easily accommodate seven or eight people inside the space station.

The female warriors took out the money, counted it, and turned back to confirm, "168 million Berries, no more, no less!"

Margaret turned to look at Hancock.

Hancock looked at the aircraft in front of her, her mood not very good.

This item clearly belongs to that Rizhao Logistics company, because there are still words on it.

Rizhao Logistics belongs to Alabasta, which is a member state of the World Government.

Rizhao Logistics has the technology to ride the waves in the windless zone, which means that the world government also has it.

The fact that Hancock, or Amazon Lily, can exist peacefully in this world is definitely not primarily due to the system of universal conscription.

The main reason is that the Amazon lily is located in the doldrums, which prevents ordinary ships from entering, making the doldrums a natural haven for the Amazon lily.

But what if the world government had the technology to freely enter and exit the Calm Belt?

"Lady Boa Hancock?" Margaret looked at Hancock, who seemed to be in a daze. "This red bean?"

"Put it in!" Hancock said coldly.

Margaret nodded, then quickly instructed the soldiers to place 210 kilograms of red beans onto the ground effect vehicle.

Then, the ground effect vehicle made a whooshing sound, flames began to erupt from its rear, and it slowly changed direction, accelerated, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight just like it had come.

The whole process was harmonious and peaceful, without the slightest conflict, but a great fear shrouded Hancock's heart.

What she feared was not the unmanned boat itself, but what it represented.

Is it friend or foe? What is the attitude towards Kuja?

Moreover, if I remember correctly, this business deal, and even this ship, were brought in by the man who called himself White Dragon.

What is this person planning to do now?

However, as an empress, she couldn't possibly show fear in front of her subjects. She could only calmly turn around and softly say, "Take the money back!"

Nine Serpents, the Serpent Queen's Palace, the Empress removed her brocade robe and sat down in a chair, looking somewhat listless.

The old woman quietly appeared in front of her: "How did today's deal go?"

"It went very smoothly!"

"Isn't it good if things go smoothly?" Grandma looked at Hancock's gloomy face. She had taken care of Hancock for so many years, so of course she could tell that Hancock was not very happy.

"None of your business!" Hancock said coldly.

"But I was the previous king, I should know what you're facing!"

"I am now the king of this country!"

"You'll regret this!"

"Bang!" Grandma was grabbed by the collar by Hancock and kicked away.

"Tsk tsk, this treatment is much worse than Danzo's!" A teasing voice rang out from beside Hancock.

Hancock turned her head and saw that the young man from yesterday had appeared in her bedroom again.

"It's you again!" Hancock said coldly. "Who are you, and what do you want?"

"Let me introduce myself!" Ning Yuan said with a smile, "My name is Ning Yuan, the King of Alabasta, and also the White Dragon who killed three Celestial Dragons a few days ago!"

As he spoke of Ning Yuan, he changed his appearance and figure, but quickly changed back to his original form.

Hancock's eyes lit up. She was noncommittal about Ning Yuan's attitude, but she definitely had goodwill towards Bai Longzhi, who killed three Celestial Dragons.

"Furthermore, I am also the chief advisor of the Revolutionary Army, and I am the one supporting the current war between the East Blue Revolutionary Army and the World Government!" Ning Yuan continued, "In addition, I have also subdued Doflamingo!"

"The Revolutionary Army's Chief Advisor?" Among his many identities, Hancock astutely grasped Ning Yuan's most crucial one: "So, you've come to win me over to fight against the World Government?"

"No, no, no!" Ning Yuan said with a faint smile, "Fighting the World Government is no easy task. I've come to see you for another reason!"

"What's the reason?"

"I'll marry you!"

"Huh?" Hancock was taken aback.

"You heard me right!" Ning Yuan laughed. "You're the most beautiful woman in the world. Surprised that I want to marry you? I've even prepared a betrothal gift!"

"You mean that red bean tea business?" Hancock asked dismissively.

Ning Yuan shook his head: "That was just something I did on a whim, that's what I meant!"

As he spoke, Ning Yuan raised his hand and waved it, and three corpses appeared in front of Hancock.

The sudden appearance of three corpses on such a magnificent palace and such a clean floor would certainly be an eyesore, but what if these three corpses were wearing spacesuits and carrying glass jars?

Naturally, Hancock's eyes were shining!

"Are you satisfied with this betrothal gift?" Ning Yuan asked with a smile.

"Satisfied, I couldn't be more satisfied. Me, huh?" Hancock paused, a question forming in her mind: "Why would you think I'd like something like this?"

Could it be!

"I met an old man with white hair in Sabaody Archipelago, and he told me a lot!" Ning Yuan saw Hancock's expression tighten, so he continued, "I asked him how to win you over, and he said that if you hate Celestial Dragons, and he brought a Celestial Dragon's corpse to propose to you, you'd most likely say yes!"

"After all, I am the king of a constituent republic. Although I harbor rebellious intentions, the time was not right, so I disguised myself as the White Dragon and carried out this act!"

Hancock remained silent. Was that the white-haired old man, Uncle Rayleigh?

She stood up from the chair, walked to the corpse, and gently stroked the texture of the Celestial Dragon's clothes and the smooth fish tank on his head.

That's right, that's the outfit, that's the material, this is a genuine Celestial Dragon!

Hancock almost laughed, and she did laugh.

Celestial Dragons, Celestial Dragons, I never thought you'd end up like this?

When you arbitrarily abduct young girls and enslave them, have you ever considered that someone might kill three Celestial Dragons just to pursue a slave?

"Do you know why I hate Celestial Dragons?" Hancock asked softly.

"Does that even need a reason?" Ning Yuan asked with a smile. "Who in this world doesn't hate Celestial Dragons?"

"That's true!" Hancock shook her head. "But my reasons for hating the Celestial Dragons are somewhat different from those of everyone else!"

"What's different?" Ning Yuan asked.

Hancock remained silent for a long time before turning around and slowly unbuttoning her cheongsam.

A moment later, the long dress fell down, revealing a stunningly beautiful, mature woman's body in front of Ning Yuan.

She stood tall and graceful, with skin as white as snow; just one glance was enough to make one lose their mind and be captivated.

She truly deserves the title of the world's most beautiful woman; she's beautiful, has a great figure, and even her skin is impeccably maintained.

But its only flaw is the ugly hoof print on its back.

"The Heavenly Dragon's Carved Hoof!" Ning Yuan murmured.

"That's right, it's the Celestial Dragon's Hoof, and that represents my identity!" Hancock said in a deep voice, "The reason I hate the Celestial Dragons so much is because I was once their slave!"

She turned around, revealing her imposing figure to Ning Yuan without any hesitation, her eyes already brimming with tears: "Now that you know this secret, do you still want to marry me?"

"Why not marry?" Ning Yuan countered.

"Eh?" Hancock's body trembled slightly. "But..."

Ning Yuan casually picked up the Celestial Dragon's corpse, walked up to Hancock, and gently embraced the body that was a head taller than him: "Actually, I already knew about this!"

"Huh?" Hancock blinked blankly.

"However, I want you to say it yourself!" Ning Yuan's hand lit up with a green light, and then he gently pressed it on Hancock's back.

Hancock felt a slight itch on the hoof, and a possibility suddenly occurred to her. As soon as the feeling disappeared, she immediately reached out and pressed her hand against her back.

She didn't touch the ugly mark, but only a smooth patch of skin!

"The scars on your back are easy to remove, but the scars in your heart are hard to erase. Only by facing the past can you truly get out of the pain!" He held Hancock's right hand tightly.

Pain is not something that can be easily overcome!

But Hancock did feel much warmer after all.

After all, before, only he and his two younger sisters had to face this problem, but now, he has someone else to rely on!

He's someone who'd kill Celestial Dragons for his own sake!

This support is so reassuring!

Thinking of this, Hancock became even more excited. She pulled Ning Yuan into her arms, her mind and movements in a daze, and she stammered, "I... Ning Yuan... Ning Yuan..."

When Ning Yuan watched anime before, he thought it was some kind of exaggerated depiction. How could someone be so lovesick that they faint?

But when he felt Hancock's rapidly rising heartbeat and flushed face, he realized that there really were people like that in this world.

Isn't it right in front of us?

Imagine a stunningly beautiful person embracing you naked, calling your name. Who in the world could resist that?

Moreover, Ning Yuan wasn't Tang Sanzang, so he simply picked Hancock up and carried her in his arms.

This time, there's no need to build a bed ourselves, because there's one already in the palace!

In an instant, yin and yang harmonized, and the most beautiful and melodious sounds in the world began to spread throughout the palace.

Hancock is unlike ordinary women; she is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, proficient in all three types of Haki, and possesses astonishing physical abilities. She and Ning Yuan are evenly matched, like two equally matched generals.

The harmonious sounds of the zither and lute resounded all night long, only gradually ceasing in the early hours of the morning.

Inside the palace, atop the imperial carriage, Ning Yuan held Hancock in his arms, gently kneading the baby in his hands, feeling that nothing could be more blissful than this.

Some people might say he's narrow-minded, only thinking about picking up girls all day.

But let me ask you this: isn't he happy living this kind of life?

If time travel is only for power and authority, then what's the point of it?

Of course, there is also a concept that says you can wait until you reach the highest point before you start to enjoy yourself. By then, you will be omniscient, omnipotent, and have an endless lifespan, so you can enjoy yourself however you want.

However, in Ning Yuan's personal opinion, this is not the case at all.

As one's strength increases, one's mindset improves, and one grows older, one's desires actually gradually diminish.

For example, when Ning Yuan first entered the Naruto world, all he could think about was building a harem, taking in all the beauties, and letting Hinata, Ino, Haruno, and Sakura go.

But in the end, only a few were accepted?

Kurenai Yuhi, Tsunade, Konan, Nono Yakushi, Kaguya-sama, Mei Terumi—only six of them.

He had no interest in the rest, especially Hinata, whom he had watched grow up since she was a child. How could he still be interested in her?

He's not even truly omniscient and omnipotent; he only has a little bit of ability in a small world, let alone being omniscient and omnipotent at the multiverse level.

Once you've finished a game, would you ever open it again?

You play Minecraft, and in the Survival Apocalypse mode, you installed the Creator mod, farmed a bunch of diamond swords, and even changed your house to be made of diamond.

Is there any point in opening this game?

Therefore, enjoyment should not be enjoyed after reaching the peak, but rather during the growth phase.

Anyway, Ningyuan has never seen any big shot start enjoying life after reaching the end of their career.

Of course, the prerequisite for enjoying this is that you have the financial means to support yourself.

For example, Ning Yuan enjoys life because he is the God of Order, which gives the impression that he is a rich second-generation and therefore does not need to work hard.

If you are a self-made millionaire and no one is there to bail you out, then you'd better just work hard and strive honestly.
