Hina, a cigarette between her fingers, a faint smile playing on her cool expression, nodded to Nami and teased her.
"Nami, how many times have you been bothered this month? If you keep breaking down the wall, your sister will get really annoyed."
Nami hugged Nojiko and started acting cute.
"No way! My sister loves me the most... her little sister!"
Nojiko affectionately patted Nami's head and said with a smile,
"I'm so sorry, Hina, I'm sorry to trouble you again!"
"It's alright, maintaining order is my duty!"
Before Hina arrived, Gion had emphasized the importance of the two sisters, saying that they had a close relationship with Senga and that she should take special care of them.
She had initially thought it would be a troublesome situation, but after arriving here, she found that both the gentle Nojiko and the lovely Nami were easy to get along with, and gradually, she became good friends with the two sisters.
In her spare time, she would train the two sisters, and after a while, she would personally escort them to the Marine Headquarters. With Senga's connection, these things were no big deal.
Hina chatted with Nami for a few minutes, then turned her gaze to Luffy, who was surrounded by soldiers.
Luffy's behavior was very different from the people she had captured before. He was calm and even grinned, showing no awareness of the possibility of being captured.
Hina shook her head, thinking to herself,
"Is this guy an idiot? He's about to be arrested and he's still grinning like an idiot."
She casually waved her hand, signaling the soldiers to make the arrest.
The soldiers received orders and immediately moved forward to capture Luffy. Luffy pressed down on his Straw Hat with one hand, and suddenly extended his other arm, swinging it wildly in all directions.
Before anyone could even get close, they were flung away by his arm. Seeing this, Hina frowned and said...
"Devil Fruit User? Looks like Paramecia."
Luffy chuckled, then took off running. He didn't want to get entangled with these Marines, but Hina wasn't about to let him go.
Hina snorted coldly, tightened her gloves, and then Luffy out her arms towards Luffy, who was running away.
"Feather Crate!"
Her arms transformed into two extended black iron bars, quickly catching up with Luffy and encircling him.
Luffy stared in surprise at the iron bars binding him and exclaimed,
"You're also Devil Fruit User?"
Nami approached Hina, looking at her arms, which had turned into iron bars, with a curious expression.
Hina rarely uses her Devil Fruit powers, but every time she does, she can't help but go up and take a look.
In the East Blue, Devil Fruit are still quite rare, as evidenced by the surprised expressions on the faces of those around them.
Hina felt she had successfully captured him, so she relaxed and started talking to Nami beside her.
"It's not like this is the first time you've seen it; you always look at yourself like a curious child!"
"But every time I see it, it feels so amazing! And Sister Tina's abilities seem way cooler than that lunatic's!"
"You, you saw those abilities during the Marineford War back then. Mine is nothing compared to theirs."
"That's just through a screen, how can it compare to seeing the real thing up close!"
"If you want to see it up close, why don't you let your Brother Senga demonstrate it for you? He possesses more than one ability, and each one is terrifyingly powerful!"
When Senga was mentioned, Hina's face lit up with admiration, while Nami pouted and muttered,
"Hmph, I don't know where he's been these past few years, he hasn't even come to see me. Once I get to headquarters, I'm going to pester him all the time!"
The two chatted on, oblivious to everyone else, completely ignoring Luffy who was tied up.
Luffy suddenly shouted, his body inflating like a balloon, breaking free of the iron bars binding him.
Hina was startled. She withdrew her arm and whispered,
"What kind of ability is this? It's a bit strange..."
Upon seeing this, Nami immediately retreated to Nojiko's side, allowing Hina to focus on dealing with Luffy.
Luffy stretched his body, looked at Hina, and said with a smile,
"Your ability is quite interesting. Let me see how strong you really are!"
As he spoke, he extended his arm backward and used the rebound force to strike Hina.
Seeing Luffy launch an attack, the soldiers behind Hina immediately opened fire. The bullets bounced off Luffy, and many soldiers were hit and fell to the ground.
However, the bullets in the Pirate World are rather ridiculously powerful, and they are generally difficult to kill. Even if these soldiers are hit, they only suffer minor injuries, and some soldiers can even get up immediately after being hit.
Most of the marines sent here came from headquarters. They did not panic because of Luffy's strange abilities. Instead, they calmly changed into swords and rushed forward to fight Luffy hand-to-hand.
However, Luffy's Taijutsu were no joke. He quickly defeated the Luffy and knocked them to the ground. Hina was truly astonished. Luffy looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, yet he could easily defeat so many Marine Headquarters soldiers. His talent was among the best in the Headquarters.
After dealing with the Marine soldiers, Luffy charged towards Hina, unleashing a barrage of attacks with Hina arms.
"Gomu Gomu no Gatling!"
Hina used Observation Haki, her figure flashing and dodging between Luffy's fists. Seeing his attack miss, Luffy retreated to the side and said...
"That's Observation Haki, right? My dad demonstrated it for me."
Hearing this, Hina became interested. In the East Blue, Haki was just as rare as Devil Fruit, and she thought that Luffy's father must not be an ordinary person either.
"Oh? Who's your father?"
"His name is... oh? What's his name again?"
Luffy scratched his head; he had indeed forgotten his father's name. Following Yamato, another filial son had been born.
Hina was speechless. She felt that Luffy was playing a trick on her, and she said, word by word...
Hina is very angry!
With a flick of her wrist, an iron rod appeared in her hand. It was quite similar to Senga's Yin-Yang Yin-Yang Release, but its quality was naturally incomparable.
Hina gripped the iron rod tightly, stomped her foot, and used Shave Flash to appear in front of Luffy, raising the rod to smash it down on Luffy's face.
Luffy, however, seemed to have anticipated this and dodged it by stepping forward.
Hina raised an eyebrow, chased after him, and struck him a few more times with her Luffy, but Luffy dodged them all. She spun the iron staff around and asked,
"You also Observation Haki?"
Luffy grinned and said,
"I already told you, Dad demonstrated it for me, and I have more than just Observation Haki..."
As he spoke, to Hina's astonishment, Luffy's arms instantly turned pitch black as he used Armament Haki.
