Senga called out to Hancock for a while before she slowly woke up. Finding herself still in Senga's arms, she immediately pursed her lips and remained silent.
Seeing that Hancock had woken up but still looked a little weak, Senga called Ain and Kalifa to help support her.
Because Hancock is already 1.9 meters tall, the two women looked rather petite next to her.
Hancock suddenly rose from Senga's embrace, gave a slight curtsy, and said softly,
"Thank you for your kindness, Vice Admiral Purple Kirin, but I can do it."
Senga examined Hancock for a moment, and after confirming that she was indeed alright, she paid her no further attention.
Turning around, Senga noticed that everyone was looking at him and Hancock with strange expressions.
With a flash of purple eyes, Senga's Rinnegan suddenly glared, and the crowd below immediately quieted down again.
With things having developed to this point, and considering Hancock's personality, Senga realized that Hancock had successfully won over herself once again.
Well, I'm pretty fast, but it's not a bad thing to have such a beautiful and talented woman like me.
Moreover, once Hancock falls in love with someone, her loyalty is absolutely top-notch; she's a typical love-obsessed person.
After dealing with Hancock, Senga turned to look at Hawk Eyes.
Hawk Eyes, who had just been single-mindedly focused on finding Senga to fight, now hesitated and said...
"Have I held you up? Why don't you continue?"
Upon hearing this, Hancock's face flushed, she glanced furtively at Senga, then quickly lowered her head and remained silent.
Senga looked at Hawk Eyes helplessly, thinking to himself that he really didn't know Hawk Eyes knew this. Wasn't his favorite sword, the Black Blade Night, with a mini version hanging around his neck?
"It won't delay anything. You wanted to fight, so let's go to that open space in front of Marineford."
Senga here refers to the battlefield during the Marineford War; Marineford, viewed from above, resembles a plump crescent moon.
The missing section was filled with seawater, forming an inner bay, where the battle took place.
Once the battle location was determined, Senga took the lead and went out, followed by all the Shichibukai.
Goodness, it seems waiting a little longer was the right thing to do. Hawk Eyes and Purple Kirin's battle is a rare and Big News Morgans, and they've actually become witnesses to it.
The Momonga and Corazon didn't go with them. They exchanged a glance, then got up and went to find Sengoku.
It would be best to inform Fleet Admiral Sengoku about Hawk Eyes's impending battle with Vice Admiral Purple Kirin here.
At this moment, Sengoku was still leisurely sipping tea in his office.
There was no other way; ever since Sengoku met Senga, he had entrusted Senga things to her with confidence.
This gave the Sengoku a rare period of leisure time to do things that their peers enjoyed.
The high-ranking officers of the Navy in the Pirate World One Piece are quite endearing compared to a certain group in Konoha; they have less backstabbing and infighting.
Even when Akainu wanted to compete for the position of Fleet Admiral, he fought Aokiji openly and fairly.
As the Fleet Admiral of the Sengoku, he did not covet the position of Fleet Admiral after he was defeated.
If there is someone more suitable than him to be the Fleet Admiral, he will not try to trip them up.
Now that Senga and has grown up, Sengoku is happy to delegate authority to Senga.
With power relinquished, the Sengoku had a rare period of leisure time, which led them to seek out some "refined" activities.
For him, tea tasting was a delightful experience, and Sengoku was already looking forward to a wonderful retirement. (Source Tianlai Novel Network)
The tea in the cup had already gone a little warm, and Sengoku didn't even bother to taste it; he simply picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.
Before he could swallow, the office door was suddenly pushed open roughly, and the Momonga and Corazon burst in, looking anxious.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku! Hawk Eyes is about to fight Purple Kirin Vice Admiral!"
"Puff!!!"
"The Fleet Admiral Sengoku!?"
Sengoku spat out the large mouthful of tea he had just swallowed, his face turning purple as he stared at the Momonga and Corazon, saying each word slowly and deliberately.
"What did you say? Why are those two fighting?!"
"It was Hawk Eyes who heard that Vice Admiral Purple Kirin had defeated Golden Lion in swordsmanship, so he challenged Vice Admiral Purple Kirin!"
Sengoku was taken aback; given Hawk Eyes's personality, this reason was actually quite reasonable.
Thinking of Hawk Eyes, Sengoku felt a headache coming on. This guy was different from the other Shichibukai; he was an extremely special existence.
Most of the other Shichibukai have families and their own territories.
Hawk Eyes, however, has always been alone, and being alone means having no ties, making him difficult to control.
His strength is also terrifying; in swordsmanship, he can even fight Red-Haired Shanks to a standstill.
Moreover, Hawk Eyes is one of the very few people who can master the "Black Blade".
The term "Black Blade" doesn't simply mean that covering it with Armament Haki makes it Black Blade; such Black Blade would be far too cheap.
According to Gyuki's words in the anime, a true "Black Blade" refers to a permanent Black Blade formed by infusing everything about oneself, such as power, aura, and Armament Haki, into the sword through years of battle.
Based on these factors, it's no exaggeration to say that Hawk Eyes is the most prestigious of the Shichibukai.
As for Senga, there's no doubt about his strength. Sengoku was absolutely certain that Senga was already a true Admiral- level fighter.
If these two were to fight here, how much would the repair costs be? Who would pay for it?
Thinking of this, Sengoku's face turned ashen, and he looked at Corazon and the Momonga, saying...
"Vice Admiral Purple Kirin agreed?"
"Yes!"
Did he say where the battle would take place?
"Vice Admiral Purple Kirin said he was going to the open space in front of the headquarters building!"
"What?! Isn't it just a short distance away?"
"Yes!"
"Are they trying to tear this place down?! You two, go stop them!"
"Is it... eh?"
Upon hearing Sengoku's order, the Momonga and Corazon looked at each other, wondering if they had misheard.
Are you suggesting we send those two to stop those two? Does the Fleet Admiral Sengoku have some misunderstanding about the strength of these two?
What's the difference between them running over to stop it and delivering vegetables? Is the Fleet Admiral Sengoku confused or trying to lay off staff in a roundabout way?
Sengoku realized he had been too hasty and that he should handle this matter personally.
At that moment, Corazon suddenly said weakly,
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, didn't you say you could always trust Lieutenant Vice Admiral Senga?"
Sengoku had already gotten up to leave, paused for a moment upon hearing this, before remembering that it was a sentence he had emphasized to Corazon during the Op-Op Fruit incident.
I didn't expect Corazon to actually remember it. He can still bring it up now. He truly deserves to be my little apple. He always keeps my words in mind.
Sengoku looked at Corazon with a pleased expression, but then the Momonga reminded him of something.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, aren't you going to stop them?"
Sengoku was shocked. Yes, if they waited any longer, their house would be torn down!
And it was precisely because I had too much faith in Senga's abilities that I decided to stop this battle at headquarters!
Thinking of this, Sengoku glared at Corazon, then, instead of going through the door, he opened the window and leaped out, disappearing from Corazon and the Momonga's sight.
Sengoku's move left Corazon and the Momonga stunned. After a long while, Corazon's throat bobbed, and he muttered to himself,
"As expected of the Fleet Admiral Sengoku, he always manages to find the best solution in the shortest time!"
The Momonga nodded in agreement and replied,
"With his skills Fleet Admiral Sengoku could serve for at least another twenty years!"
