Shirou's clones number 30 million

After being arrested, he never revealed his real name and even specifically instructed his two younger sisters not to use their real names.

“I…I am Hanni.”

"Who is Hanni? Oh, I see, you were using a pseudonym before. Sorry, I think I gave you away."

"I...I..."

"Needless to say, I understand. If I were in your shoes, I would definitely use a pseudonym too."

Hancock looked up abruptly, staring at Shirou in shock.

Would a Celestial Dragon say something like that?

Every Celestial Dragon sees himself as a god of the world.

To compare them to slaves, even as a joke, would definitely kill a huge number of people.

"Let's go sit in that fast food restaurant for a while."

Upon entering the fast food restaurant, Shirou sat down at a window seat.

The customers in the restaurant all lowered their heads and ate in extreme silence, as if trying to blend into the air, afraid of being spotted by the Celestial Dragons.

Shirou took the menu from the trembling waitress, ordered his food, placed it on the table, and pushed it toward the two girls opposite him.

"Order whatever you want."

Seeing that the two were looking down and not making any movement, Shirou sighed softly, put away the menu, and turned to look at the waiter.

"Then give them both the same as me. Mr. Borsalino, please order for yourself."

"I shouldn't have to pay for it myself, right?"

"Of course not, I will cover all expenses during the escort period."

"In that case, give me one of everything on the menu."

Shirou smiled and didn't seem to care.

Then, he shifted his gaze to the two girls opposite him and said with a serious expression:

"Hancock, Erin, what do you think an adventurer is?"

"A job? No, adventurers are free!"

"Once you accept a task, you must complete it. But even if you don't complete it, there will be no penalty."

"Once you register as an adventurer, it doesn't matter if you never take on any missions and just have your name registered."

"If you have any difficulties, you can post a quest in the guild. It has nothing to do with your adventurer status."

"Does becoming an adventurer mean being confined to one place? No, adventurers are free; they can go wherever they want."

"Of course, the Adventurers' Guild currently only has this one headquarters. But in the future, the guild will definitely be spread all over the world, just like naval bases."

"At that time, every adventurer can accept quests in any branch, travel the world, and go wherever they want."

"Now that the initial mission is complete, you are also free!"

"So if you want to leave, just go out to sea as usual, there's no need to have any concerns."

"Adventurers are the symbol of freedom."

Borsalino at the next table suddenly interjected:

"Complete freedom, isn't that just like being a pirate?"

"Of course they're different! Pirates are the ones who do evil, while adventurers have the most basic bottom line as human beings." Shirou paused for a moment, "and these bottom lines are engraved on the gates of the Adventurers' Guild."

"This is really..."

Borsalino chuckled softly, but didn't say the rest of his sentence.

This is really trying to steal the Navy's job.

Freer than the navy, yet different from the unscrupulous pirates—is this what adventurers are all about?

If this can be achieved, the navy will indeed be greatly affected, and the air marshal's concerns are valid.

However, the Five Elders could definitely see through this, so why would they agree?

Is it because the proposer is a Celestial Dragon?

"Didn't you say you were going to travel the world? It seems you're planning to stay in the Sabaody Archipelago for a long time?"

"No, things are already on track here. We'll set sail tomorrow to explore the world."

Keeping a clone with a one-year shelf life is enough.

"Oh...? Where to?"

“Gaya Island, Mogok Town”

Shirou once hesitated for a long time between the Snow-Snow Fruit and the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

But in the end, they chose the Snow-Snow Fruit, which had the potential to be developed into a time-freezing fruit.

The power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit goes without saying; whether developed in the direction of electromagnetism or natural lightning, it can become very strong.

The Rumble-Rumble Fruit—I may not need it, but I can't live without it.

Is he leaving?

Moreover, it seemed that he didn't intend to bring himself and Eileen along.

Realizing this, Hancock's resolve began to waver.

According to him, adventurers are free.

In other words, I am no longer a slave, I am free, and I can go anywhere.

Even if I go home, no one will stop me.

But what about her two younger sisters? They are still suffering in Mary Geoise.

"I...I can't leave."

Shirou looked at her in surprise, then smiled and said:

"As I said, adventurers are the symbol of freedom. Whatever you do or where you go is your freedom."

"I...please help me."

Hancock lowered her head, her voice incredibly low, and tears streamed down her face involuntarily.

"what happened?"

"Please save my two younger sisters."

That's it!

Shirou suddenly understood; no wonder she hadn't left.

Where is your sister?

“Before, I was used as a bet and lost, but my sister is still over there.”

"Didn't you leave with Tiger and the others?"

"No."

"It's not that I can't help you, but what will you offer as payment? You can't expect me to help you for free."

"I……"

Hancock fell silent for a moment.

If the other person is ten years older, or even just fourteen or fifteen, you can try using your body as a bargaining chip.

But the other person was just an eight-year-old child, not old enough to be interested in women.

Armament Haki? Amazon Lily secret technique?

As a Celestial Dragon, he certainly doesn't lack anything he's capable of.

"How about I offer you a job in exchange? You want to expand the Adventurers' Guild, and you must be short-handed. Besides being an adventurer, I can also take on some management work."

"make a deal!"

Shirou chuckled, took out a Den Den Mushi, and began contacting Butler Hyman.

"Young master, please give your orders."

Do you know Hancock?

"I'll check it out right away."

Upon seeing this, Hancock quickly said:

"My usual name is Hanni."

"Oh, it's you!" Hyman, the butler on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, murmured her name. "Hanni, I remember you. The master won the bet not long ago."

“Hyman, since you remember, that makes things easier.” Shirou pondered. “She has two younger sisters who are still over there and haven’t come over yet. Let’s find a way to buy them back.”

"Yes, young master!"

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Shirou looked at Hancock again.

In those original memories, she seemed to be very bothered by the slave tattoo on her back.

"Hancock, now that you're free, do you need me to remove the tattoo on your back?"

In that instant, Hancock suddenly felt like crying.

"Is that okay? How do I do it?"

“It’s simple, I’ll use my secret method.” Shirou smiled slightly. “I don’t see you have any appetite either, so let’s go. I’ll go back and remove your tattoo, and the same goes for Irene.”

The secret method is simple: use an ice blade to painlessly slice off the skin on her back, then use the slime's own healing potion.
