One Piece: The Salted Fish Fruit

"Come in!" the old man, wearing a white cloak and sporting a huge braid, said in a deep voice, as if the furious aura he had just exuded was not his own.

"Are all the executioners here?"

"There are twenty-four in total. Six of them are in the hospital because of the fight! The remaining eighteen are all here," the green-haired man replied, handing over the documents in his hand.

Having reviewed the information in his hand, Marshal Sengoku roared at all the executioners who had entered the hall:

"All soldiers! Attention!"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!" Several synchronized sounds rang out, and everyone stood before him like a benchmark.

"Do you know who is about to be executed! The second division commander of Whitebeard's army! The son of Whitebeard, one of the Four Emperors of the sea! Are you afraid?" Looking at the imposing figure of the first division commander, he put down the documents in his hand and charged towards the executioners with a roar, his aura of intimidation emanating from him.

This immediately turned everyone's faces pale!

"Whitebeard!" Although they already knew, upon hearing Sengoku's roar and the overwhelming aura of his power, some couldn't help but feel fear as they imagined facing the terrifying scenario of Whitebeard, who could destroy the world! They all took a step back!

Only Mabi remained completely still!

"Soldier, why aren't you afraid!" Seeing the soldier retreat in disappointment, she also noticed Maby's presence.

“Those who commit murder deserve to die!” Mabi gripped the long blade of her weapon, pointing it towards Sengoku’s forehead. She raised her head slightly without the slightest fear, acting as if she were the executioner, staring directly at this world-class figure of power. She was like a cold, emotionless machine.

This is a reflection of my own life in the East China Sea. When I started my caravan route, my hands were stained with blood. I encountered pirates and went on a killing spree. Before that, I returned to the East China Sea to clean up the newly rampant moss that turned the entire ocean into the Red Sea. Four years of a lazy life were used to slowly grind down my violent emotions at that time, forcing me to become a comical person. Now, in order to play this executioner who has killed more than a hundred people, I have to recall my past expressions and restore my former demeanor. It will take me time to recover.

He didn't care at all about being discovered to be an imposter of Mabi. It would be difficult to escape with his men, but if he wanted to leave, probably no one but Kizaru could catch him.

“Black! One of the most famous executioners in the West Sea, currently handling 184 registered criminals!” The green-haired man beside him explained. He knew everyone’s information perfectly well, but for some reason, the list of names of the man in front of him was slightly blurred by two drops of water, but it was still fine. After all, it had been carefully checked when he entered the headquarters and there were no errors.

"Alright! Let him go to the execution platform! Only in this way can we stop Whitebeard's momentum from forcibly carrying out the execution. The others will guard the execution platform as substitutes." Sengoku, who had returned to normal, felt the echo of the momentum emanating from Mabi and said. The existence of Mabi and the others was just a test to see if they would be intimidated by Whitebeard's momentum in order to select them.

"Yes! Follow me! Blake, get ready! The execution will be at noon tomorrow!"

"Yes!" Mabi said coldly, still playing the role of a cold and emotionless machine!

Waiting for tomorrow to come!

I wanted to post this yesterday, but I missed it and have to post it a day later. Sorry, guys!

Chapter 181 Hancock, stop messing around!

Tomorrow at 3 PM?

Having regained her composure, Mabi sat on a wooden crate, glanced at the documents that had just been delivered to her, which listed the time for the execution assembly, and then tossed them aside to be handed to another executioner later.

The entire execution team, intimidated by the Warring States period, returned early to recover from the shock and prepare for tomorrow's battle! All the execution items were cleaned and neatly stacked in the cabinet for use tomorrow! This was also Mabi giving them a space to prepare some tools, a space they could use to prepare for their own solitude, as Mabi had given them a habit of enjoying solitude.

She took out several white, bumpy stones about the size of soybeans from her pocket. These were the Seastone stones that Mabi had taken from the Seastone during her spare time. She then took out several metal rods about ten centimeters long with concave tips and inserted them into the seastone stones, squeezing the heads together to make several shuttles inlaid with Seastone stones. Adding the six she carried with her, she had a total of twelve for emergency use. After all, her current Armament Haki was not enough to restrain an Admiral-level elementalist and grab their body to attack, so she could only use items to assist her.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sound of the floor and walls vibrating was clearly heard by Maby through the air vibrations. The sudden vibration made Maby quickly grab the shuttle placed on the wooden box, stuff it into her pocket, and shout.

"Nilco, look what's going on?"

“No problem! Watch me!” Floating in the air, Neilko nodded in response, then turned into the wall and disappeared, heading towards the source of the vibration in the distance.

"What a convenient ability!" Maby laughed, looking in the direction where Nielco had disappeared.

Everything was ready, awaiting tomorrow's battle. He had previously used his strength to cause trouble and attract Sengoku's attention, placing himself in the closest possible position to Ace to prevent Sengoku from sabotaging Ace during the execution.

"Mabi, the number one beauty of the sea, Shichibukai Hancock, is coming! The tremors earlier were caused by those Marines pushing and shoving." Nielco, who had broken through the wall, floated shakily next to Mabi with hearts in his eyes and answered, completely absorbed in the moment, not even noticing that he was mistaking a box for Mabi's position.

"So beautiful! No wonder she's the legendary number one beauty! Even eight hundred years ago, she would have been a rare beauty to find! Wow! This is the feeling of being smitten! I must pursue her!"

“You have no body!” Mabi retorted without hesitation.

Upon hearing Maby's rant, Neilco, who had been beaming with excitement, vanished instantly, his illusory soul now hovering over Maby's head, yelling and shouting.

"You damn Mei, can't you stop bringing up my weaknesses! Can't you let me have some aspirations?"

“That’s a good pursuit! This world still has cloning technology. Your body still has time to find them and see if they can clone a human body for you to possess.” Mabi pressed his head and pushed it aside as she replied.

"Cloning? The world can already replicate the human body?" Nielco, who had calmed down, was full of questions.

"Yes! It's already ready for mature application, and it will only take five years to mature."

"Hahaha! Mabi, my future is in your hands!" Upon hearing Mabi's confirmation again, Neil was extremely excited and wanted to hug Mabi, but Mabi grabbed him and stuffed him into his arm guard. He could clearly hear the commotion coming from the doorway.

"Haha! Hancock, I love you! Please marry me!"

"Lady Hancock! Please allow me to express my deepest love for you!"

"Hey! Hey! Guess who I saw! Lady Hancock! The legendary most beautiful woman in the world! Anyone have a Movie Den Den Mushi? Take a picture quickly!"

"Whatever your orders, Lady Hancock, we will do our best to fulfill them!" Some soldiers even abandoned their dignity as members of the Marine Headquarters without hesitation, their eyes gleaming with hearts as they shouted loudly.

"Damn it! This kid beat us to it! Lady Hancock, we can do it too!" Just one sentence ignited the entire scene like bulls in heat. Without hesitation, they pressed their companions' heads down and squeezed forward in the narrow passageway, the stone walls beside them cracking under the pressure.

"This humble servant...this humble servant wishes to visit...to see the executioners! Is that alright?" A soft, weak voice rang out, sounding like a pitiful, helpless lamb surrounded by a pride of lions!

"Ah! Ah! Ah! I'm going to die!"

"So beautiful!"

"God! Have mercy on me!"

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Someone save me! I don't think I'll live past tomorrow!"

The delicate voice instantly reached everyone's ears, and steam filled the narrow corridor, with countless red hearts filling the entire space!

The soldier closest to the executioner's door opened it without hesitation and leaned in to invite him in!

"This way, Lady Hancock!"

Seeing their target open, a look of joy appeared on their faces. The distance between them and Hancock was more suitable, as the Navy had completely blocked them off, forming a wall of human bodies!

"Thank you so much! I have a gift for you!" He placed his hands in front of him, making a heart shape with his hands, and then lightly clasped them together.

"Sweet and refreshing!"

"This is what we should do! Please allow me..." Before he could finish speaking, a burst of red light shone through, and everyone instantly turned into stone figures, piling up on top of each other.

"Ha! How could I give my love to you!" Seeing the bodies piled up around her, her previously weak and helpless expression became upright, her face full of disgust.

But then, remembering what happened next made her blush and feel weak all over, surrounded by pink smoke.

"My love can only be accepted by Luffy! Luffy, I will definitely get the key as a gift of our love and help your brother get out of trouble." She stepped into the room that the Navy had just opened, her long, slender legs swaying as she looked at the man in brown clothes sitting on the box and became weak.

"Oh! There are still people here! May I have a look around?"

Maggie looked up at Hancock, who was wearing a cheongsam and whose body seemed boneless and delicate!

Her long, beautiful black hair was casually draped behind her head, and her fair, radiant skin shimmered with a fluorescent glow. As she walked, her long legs revealed glimpses of her private parts through her clothes, sparking the imagination.

Who the hell can handle this?!

Any man would lose control when he sees her!

Hancock, who had seen countless such looks in Maggie's eyes, understood immediately and asked softly again, "Is it alright?"

"Can···!"

"No! You can't! This area is off-limits to visitors!"

Mabi, who had just uttered a single word, immediately realized she had said something wrong. She bit her tongue to bring herself back to reality and coldly refused.

"Really not? I just want to take a look!" Hancock replied weakly, making a heart shape with one hand and placing it at her waist.

Mabi, who had been watching her closely, naturally knew what was about to happen. In an instant, she picked up the sharp blade that was placed beside her and stomped hard on the ground, disappearing above the wooden box.

"Oh!"

"Ah! It hurts!"

Two voices rang out simultaneously, one after the other. Hancock, clutching her waist, glared at Maggie with disbelief, her teeth clenched: "You weren't affected by me?"

"I've taken it! But to stop you from causing trouble, I had no choice but to strike first. As someone with the ability to manipulate emotions, the longer it goes on, the harder it is to resist! I have to resort to this tactic, so I can only apologize!" Mabi slowly withdrew the hilt of the knife she had just used to stab Hancock in the kidney and said apologetically.

No way! Sooner or later I'll be captivated by the other person's physical appearance and then be petrified and kicked into stone.

"What a cruel man! How could he cause me such unbearable pain! Sweet wind!" The other party frowned and clenched his fists, and a wider range of red light spread directly throughout the room.

"Shun Kong!"

"Bang!" Seeing the wide-ranging red light spread, Mabi disappeared instantly and reappeared behind her. The long hilt of the blade stabbed into her other side of the waist again.

"Hiss!" The blow to her waist caused Hancock to stagger, her face contorted with rage. Gasping for breath, she strode forward and pointed a finger at Mabe.

"You bastard, how dare you attack me again!"

"Hancock, stop fooling around! Put this on! Let's get down to business!" Seeing Mabi pointing at her finger, she didn't care at all. She took out a blanket and threw it at her to cover her up first. She felt a lot of pressure wearing this cheongsam with a slit up to her waist.

"Nothing of any kind is allowed to touch my body." Seeing the white blanket rushing towards her, she took a long stride to kick it away.

"Luffy used that!"

The long leg of the side kick stopped abruptly, the toes and wrists twisting like white jade hooks, pulling the person in front of him, reaching out to hug him, and gently nuzzling him.

"Ah! It smells like Luffy, so comforting!"

"Damn it! Who are you! How do you know Luffy?" After a moment of realization, Hancock's face turned cold as she stared intently at Maple's face, ready to strike at the slightest provocation.

"Please allow me to introduce myself!" Seeing that she had stopped causing trouble, Mabi breathed a sigh of relief. She was finally quiet! If this continued, she might have to knock her unconscious first.

"Mabi! First mate of the Straw Hat Pirates! Now take over as the executioner and carry out the execution! Seize the opportunity to rescue Ace!"

"Salome! Does it taste like Luffy?"

"Are you even listening to me?!" Mabi yelled angrily as the other person handed the blanket to her pet, focusing only on the blanket Luffy used to sleep on and ignoring what she was about to say.

"Hiss!" The snake flicked its tongue and nodded.

"Great! This smells like Luffy." Upon seeing his pet's scent, he immediately draped the cloak over himself, his face flushed.

"Huh! What did you say?" The other person opened their big eyes and tilted their head, looking at Mabi with cute curiosity, completely bewildered.

"I give up!" Maggie covered her forehead. As expected, Hancock's IQ was at its lowest when she was in love, so she repeated what she had just said.

Upon hearing Maby's answer, Hancock stared down at Maby with a look of utter disdain.

"Tch! So you're that perverted first mate who loves wearing women's clothes, Luffy's been talking about you nonstop the whole way here!"

"Did that bastard really say that? I'll kill him when I see him, he's ruined my reputation!" Mabi covered her forehead, annoyed but still forgiving him—what can you do when this guy is such a simpleton!
