Nine Snake Castle, Amazon Lily King's Palace.
The Empress's Palace.
The current emperor Amazon Lily, with long black hair combed in a Ji hairstyle, was lying quietly in the bathtub. She had a pair of dark blue eyes with slender and delicate corners. She rested her head on the bathtub and let her long hair fall vertically out of the bathtub. She stared at the ceiling unblinkingly. There was a little coldness in her almond-shaped eyes, and an indifferent expression on her cold and beautiful face that she would not let strangers approach her.
Boya·Hancock!
Owners of Paramecia tiantian Devil Fruit User, Conqueror's Haki, Observation Haki and Armament Haki!
He became the emperor of the Amazon Lily kingdom at the age of eighteen. Because he led Kuja Pirates on his first expedition, he was recruited by World Government with his strong strength and became one of the members of Shichibukai. His proper debut was the peak.
At this time, the entire area around the palace was under martial law. Let alone a person, even a bird flying over the palace would be killed instantly.
The reason is very simple. The empress of Amazon Lily is taking a bath. Except for the two sisters beside the empress, no one else is allowed to approach the palace.
Of course, Hancock is not worried about being seen bathing. After all, the Amazon Lily kingdom is a kingdom of only women.
The reason why she enforced martial law on this palace every time she took a bath was because the three sisters had a secret that could not be known to outsiders.
Suddenly--
"Grandma Nyon, Grandma Nyon--"
"You can't go in, my sister is taking a bath!"
Outside the palace gate, Grandma Nyon, who was hurriedly approaching with a stack of newspapers in hand, was stopped by two women guarding the door. They were Boa Hancock's two younger sisters, the second sister Boya·Sandersonia and Boya·Marigold.
Unlike Hancock, who has a peerless appearance and is known as the world's most beautiful woman, Sandersonia and Marigold's looks are hard to describe. Sandersonia has a head that is much larger than the body, while Marigold has a small head and a fat body.
"Get out of my way, something big has happened!"
Grandma Nyon ignored the two sisters and used his skinny body advantage to get through between them.
As soon as he opened the door and walked into the bedroom, Grandma Nyon shouted anxiously at the top of his voice, "Hancock, Hancock, come out quickly!"
Without waiting for Hancock in the bathroom to react, Grandma Nyon opened the curtain and rushed to the bathtub. He said emotionally, "You are still in the mood to take a bath here. Things have changed outside!"
Sandersonia, who rushed in immediately, came over quickly. Because of Grandma Nyon's reaction, she also became serious and asked, "Grandma Nyon, what happened outside?"
"See for yourselves!"
With that said, Grandma Nyon threw the newspaper to Sandersonia.
Sandersonia, who took the newspaper, glanced at the newspaper with a puzzled face, and then said awkwardly, "I can't read all the words, so I'd better read it, sister."
Taking advantage of the gap between her mother-in-law and Sandersonia's conversation, Hancock stood up from the bathtub and put on a bathrobe. After silently taking the newspaper, her originally indifferent expression changed drastically as soon as she saw the news title.
"Sister-sama~"
Seeing Hancock's reaction, Sandersonia and Marigold tentatively shouted.
Hancock said nothing, and after quickly reading the first newspaper, he couldn't wait to grab the whole stack of newspapers in Grandma Nyon's hand.
After reading all the newspapers, Hancock suppressed the shock in his heart and looked at Grandma Nyon standing aside in disbelief, "It only took one day to take over the entire navy, and even signed Mary Geoise Treaty with Holy Land. How come I have never heard of this man before!"
As she said that, she spread out one of the newspapers again and looked at the group photo of Marine Headquarters that occupied most of the page. Her eyes rested on the high-spirited young Marshal sitting in the C seat., breathing inexplicably fast, he said excitedly, "Grandma Nyon, is there a clause in Mary Geoise Treaty that the navy now has the right to arrest Celestial Dragons who has violated justice?"
Grandma Nyon nodded. "That's what the newspaper said!"
Hancock's breathing became more rapid, and he said uncertainly, "Did Mary Geoise Treaty also mention that the Shichibukai recruitment order belongs to Marine Headquarters..."
Before he finished speaking, Hancock suddenly turned around, as if he had lost his soul, and said excitedly, "I'm going to meet the new navy officer Marshal now!"
"Onee-sama, onee-sama!"
Unexpectedly, Hancock would react like this. Sandersonia and Marigold quickly reminded them, "You... you haven't changed your clothes yet!"
Grandma Nyon also shouted at this time, "Hancock! Don't be so anxious, this young Marshal with thunderous wrists will issue a recruitment order to Shichibukai. What you have to care about now is not to see him, but whether you can keep Shichibukai's identity! Don't forget why you joined Shichibukai back then!"
Hearing this, Hancock's body couldn't help but stiffen.
The reason why she accepted World Government's invitation to join Shichibukai was purely to protect Amazon Lily from invasion. Because personally, she had no good impressions of World Government, especially the so-called World Nobles Celestial Dragons that World Government supported!
Not only do they not have the slightest fondness for him, they also hate him deeply because when they were young, the three sisters were abducted by human traffickers and used as slaves to be bought by Celestial Dragons. Celestial Dragons even left the shameful slave mark of Hoof of the Celestial Dragon on the backs of the three sisters.
But even so, as the empress of Amazon Lily, in order to protect the people, she had to give up the hatred in her heart and become Shichibukai. The most important thing is that in the face of this behemoth World Government, even if she also has overwhelming hatred in her heart, she does not dare to seek revenge from Celestial Dragons!
Now the Shichibukai recruitment order has been transferred from World Government to Marine Headquarters because of the mutiny launched by that man. As Shichibukai, it is absolutely necessary for her to meet this "new boss".
Of course, there is a very, very small reason for this.
The reason that really makes her impatient is that although there are many powerful people in this world, neither the Emperor of the Sea who rules over New World nor Revolutionary Army who spreads the world like a spark to a prairie fire, do not dare to attack Celestial Dragons rashly.
And this new Marine Headquarters Marshal Akira not only changed the past navy's style, not only forced Holy Land Chamber of Power to make concessions, but also gave the navy the power to arrest Celestial Dragons who violated justice!
This is something that was unimaginable in any previous era, but now it has become a reality.
Although the experience of being abducted by human traffickers from Kuja Pirate Ship and sold to Celestial Dragons had made her extremely repulsive to men over the years, at this moment she was extremely eager to see the man who dared to launch a mutiny and even made World Government compromise!
As for what to say after meeting this man, she didn't think much about it. She just simply wanted to meet him immediately.
"Your Majesty the Empress--"
Suddenly, a somewhat panicked voice came from outside the palace, "Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral Momonga brought the Shichibukai recruitment order to lead the warship across Calm Belt, and sent a message requesting the empress to attend the Shichibukai meeting held by the new headquarters Marshal in three days..."
Before the person outside the door could finish speaking, Hancock immediately said, "I'm going to change my clothes right now."
