Seeing Mirai suddenly appear, Boa Hancock was both shocked and delighted, unsure whether she should be happy or sorrowful. On one hand, she hoped Mirai had come to save her, just like at the Sabaody Archipelago. On the other hand, she feared that he had come for her, because the Navy warships were almost here.
