Chapter 714

"Shut up! You traitor who abandoned your country!" the Snake Princess shouted at Granny Zha.

"You're the one who should shut up. If this Lord Chen Fan had actually made a move, this country would have been destroyed."

Hancock stopped talking to Granny Zha and instead looked at Chen Fan, saying, "I know this may seem a bit unreasonable, but I want to protect this country. After all, it was this country that took us in when we were homeless. And those marines are just bandits in the name of justice. I am willing to pay any price for this country, even myself."

"Big Sister!"

"Snake Princess." They hadn't expected Hancock to be so resolute.

Chen Fan scratched his head. He hadn't expected that summoning Little One would have such an outcome. Was this the result of overdoing his bragging? Chen Fan didn't know how much impact summoning the giant Sea King would have on the Empress and the others. She didn't have the absolute strength of Hawk Eyes, and her title Shichibukai wasn't very stable. Of course, she wasn't the only one whose position was unstable; Gecko Morley was also affected, and it seemed that the Five Elders ordered Doflamingo to kill him. That's how the World Government works; if someone doesn't have enough value to be used, they won't hesitate to destroy them.

Chen Fan found the Empress much more pleasing to the eye now; she was just a little woman using arrogance to disguise herself. So he said, "Since you've even given yourself to me, then I'll agree to your condition."

"Lord Chen Fan, if you like, there are many beautiful women in the country. Kikyo is quite nice, and Daisy too..."

Boa Hancock interrupted her Granny Zha, saying, "Enough! Since Lord Chen Fan likes me, it is my honor. Please allow me to bathe before serving Lord Chen Fan."

"Sister!" Boa Hancock's two younger sisters exclaimed in surprise, then glared at Chen Fan with resentment. Chen Fan could understand, but there was no point in explaining now;

Soon the ship arrived, announcing that Boa Hancock needed to bathe and change. Everyone was to evacuate the Imperial Palace and not be allowed to enter for two hours. This was to prevent others from seeing the marks on her back, marks representing her slavery by the Celestial Dragon, and an eternal wound in the hearts of the sisters.

As Hancock touched the mark on her back, she could still recall the scene when she was branded as a slave. Her face turned extremely pale; for them, it was like Hell.

Suddenly, Chen Fan's voice rang out, "Do you still feel pain?"

Hearing the voice Hancock knew it was Chen Fan. She turned to look at Chen Fan and said, "You saw him."

Chen Fan nodded, Hancock continued, "This is the symbol of Celestial Dragon slaves, we sisters..." She then recounted the story Chen Fan already knew. Chen Fan didn't interrupt her; he knew this was Boa Hancock's way of venting. Chen Fan didn't know how much trauma his past memories would inflict on these 820 girls, but Chen Fan hoped to save every girl facing hardship. He didn't want to see these girls cry; this was Chen Fan's code of conduct as a man.

Will you look down on us?

"What do you think?" Chen Fan suddenly appeared behind Hancock and hugged Hancock, his hands slipping around Hancock waist. Chen Fan had to admit that he liked Hancock's body; Hancock was indeed the most beautiful woman, every move she made exuding an alluring charm. Chen Fan was hardly a gentleman, and he wanted to possess this beautiful woman.

Feeling Chen Fan's strong and powerful embrace, and sensing the reassuring aura emanating from Chen Fan, Boa Hancock, who had been trembling, calmed down. Initially, she had only made a deal with Chen Fan, but now she suddenly felt that even if she truly became Chen Fan woman, it wouldn't matter; perhaps she would live an easier life.

"Don't move. Since you're going to become my woman, you naturally can't have the mark of Celestial Dragon slave on your body." Chen Fan said, pressing his fingers against Hancock's back. Black substances formed in Chen Fan's hand; these were the melanin from the brand. Chen Fan used his superpowers to remove them all from her skin. This was Chen Fan's basic skill, and it was also Chen Fan original purpose. But now his purpose had changed; he wanted the Empress to become his woman.

Chapter 202 The Mark

(Chapter 202 The Mark)

(Hey...! Author, what kind of plot twist is this? You're courting death! Chen Fan shouted in his heart, "Well, too bad I can't hear you.")

Chen Fan was genuinely shocked by Empress Hancock's words. What was she trying to do? What did she want to achieve? Chen Fan couldn't quite understand this woman's thoughts.

Chen Fan broke out in a cold sweat and said, "You've taken this joke way too far."

"Well... it was just a joke!" Hancock said with a nonchalant expression;

"Thump!" Chen Fan fell to the ground. This woman was definitely retaliating against him for summoning Little One to scare her earlier.

Chen Fan got up and sat back down in the chair, saying, "So what are your conditions? If you keep playing games with me, I won't play along anymore." Chen Fan had been unconscious for days, and taking care of Chen Fan had been a hassle, likely done by those women. Chen Fan would naturally help them if he could, which was why he agreed to the Empress's conditions. On the other hand, it was also to give Hancock a way out, since Chen Fan had just threatened their country's highest leader.

Hancock sighed and said, "I am the leader of Amazon Lily Island. Although I always say that I can be forgiven even if the country is destroyed because of me, it's all a lie. Even if I were forgiven by others, I could not forgive myself. The island was protected by the Calm Belt, a natural shield. But the Navy's technology has become increasingly advanced, Calm Belt now allows them to travel freely. The Calm Belt has disappeared. This country is only preserved because of my title Shichibukai title, the country's life will come to an end."

"So you saw that I could command colossal Sea King and that's why you set your sights on me, is that it?" Chen Fan continued, picking up where Boa Hancock left off.

"Yes!" Boa Hancock readily admitted, "You possess the ability to control Sea King, which adds another layer of protection to this country. Even if the title of Shichibukai is stripped, as long as we possess these colossal Sea King, the country will surely be preserved. That's my condition." She called herself Shichibukai, but she was merely a pirate who didn't even dare enter the New World. Countless powerful pirates existed in the New World. The country might appear prosperous on the surface, but danger could strike at any moment, after all, these people were just a group of women.
