" Abyss " Chamber of Commerce, behind the mountain.
"Boom boom boom..."
With a series of loud explosions, two figures flashed in and out of the " Abyss " Chamber of Commerce training base, relentlessly attacking each other.
It was Lin Yuan and Hancock. Since meeting Lin Yuan, Hancock's personality seemed to have improved, and she then asked to challenge Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan naturally did not refuse Hancock's challenge; on the contrary, he was very interested in her strength.
That's why this scene happened.
Compared to her usual aloofness, Hancock was even colder in battle, her long, white legs, longer than a human life, mercilessly slashing towards Lin Yuan.
Fortunately, Lin Yuan is currently blind, otherwise he might have really been defeated by Hancock. It's just too erotic.
The two did not use their Devil Fruit abilities, but instead relied on the Three Types of Haki to fight.
Even so, the training base on the back mountain was left in a mess, almost reduced to ruins by the two.
Fortunately, Crocodile was here, directly serving as a tool for solidifying the foundation.
After exchanging blows, Lin Yuan realized that Hancock's Three Types of Haki, besides Observation Haki, also included Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, which were extremely powerful.
Although he hasn't reached Lin Yuan's level yet, he's still incredibly powerful and can even unleash Conqueror's Haki Coating!
It's well known that Conqueror's Haki Coating is almost exclusively a technique used Hancock the Four Emperors, so Lin Yuan was even more curious to learn it.
" Hancock, let me test your Devil Fruit power."
Upon hearing Lin Yuan's words, Hancock hesitated for a moment, then extended her left hand, and countless pink lights flashed, forming a huge heart-shaped energy.
"Watch out!"
After Hancock finished speaking, she gently pulled, and instantly a huge arrow appeared.
" The Slave Arrow!"
Lin Yuan did not dodge, but let the arrow hit his body. He immediately felt a mysterious force in his chest, trying to petrify him.
"Roar..."
Just as Hancock was watching nervously, a terrifying roar seemed to emanate from Lin Yuan's body. Hancock's petrifying power immediately dissipated as if she had encountered a great terror.
"This power is really interesting!"
Lin Yuan carefully sensed it, and the power of that rule almost made him fall victim to it.
"Anything else?"
Hearing Lin Yuan ask again, Hancock hesitated once more, but did not attack immediately.
"I have a move, but I can't control it, and I'm afraid it will hurt you!"
"Hehe, it's alright, come on!"
Seeing Lin Yuan's unwavering resolve, Hancock finally made up her mind, then stretched out her hands, instantly revealing two energies, one pink and one blue-brown.
At the same time, Hancock radiated golden light, her hair turned white, and not only that, the originally aloof Hancock seemed to become extremely alluring, even her voice carried a seductive power.
" Lin Yuan, you need to be careful!"
" Medusa's Gaze - Endless Curse"
As Hancock formed a heart shape with her hands, countless heart-shaped energies emanated from her body, then swept towards Lin Yuan like a storm.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan didn't dare to be careless. He immediately enveloped himself in Armament Haki. However, when the heart-shaped energy storm hit him, Lin Yuan's expression changed.
He retreated quickly, instantly transforming into a half-beast to block the energy attack, but he was still blasted dozens of meters away.
When Lin Yuan stopped, Hancock hurriedly ran over.
" Lin Yuan, are you alright?"
Lin Yuan looked at his petrified clothes and his recovering left hand, and shook his head with a smile.
"It's alright. That move was truly terrifying; it actually injured me too. You actually have two Devil Fruit abilities!"
"Uh, I'm not really sure either, but there seems to be a voice in my head."
Hancock quickly grabbed Lin Yuan's left hand and deactivated her power.
However, after the ability was dispelled, Lin Yuan's left hand was fine, but his clothes turned to ashes.
"Well..."
Lin Yuan felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but seeing Hancock's gentle and loving gaze, he gritted his teeth.
Instantly, countless Flame Clouds enveloped an area of several hundred meters in radius, and Lin Yuan and Hancock's figures disappeared into the Flame Clouds.
A full day and night passed. When Sandersonia and Marigold were worried that Hancock would come looking for them, they saw Hancock nestled against Lin Yuan, slowly walking back.
When they returned to headquarters, Hancock immediately issued a shocking order: the Kuja Kingdom officially joined the Abyss Trading Company.
This decision shocked not only Tesoro and the others, but even Gloriosa couldn't stop it in time, since Hancock had already spoken and she couldn't object.
Only Yamato, Erza, and the other women of Lin Yuan looked meaningfully at Hancock's rosy complexion. As experienced women, they naturally knew what had happened.
However, this is a good thing for Lin Yuan, so they won't object.
Looking at the women before him, Lin Yuan felt a deep sense of satisfaction. Hancock's allure, Yamato's wildness, Robin's intelligence, and the twins Erza and Emile —all were irresistible to him.
"Since Hancock has decided to join, I naturally welcome her, but we cannot reveal your presence for the time being."
"To the outside world, the Kuja Kingdom and the Kuja Pirates remain independent entities; only our own people know this."
"However, Amazon Lily is Haki experts, so I discussed it with Hancock and we'll send some of the Shadow Secret Guard women there to learn from them."
"From now on, the supply of goods to Amazon Lily will be handled by the Merchant Guild, with Erza and Gloriosa discussing the specifics. The two will form a defensive alliance."
Gloriosa Osa, who had been harboring resentment, immediately perked up. She hadn't expected Lin Yuan to be so generous, not only providing them with all their food and daily necessities but also standing completely on their side at this crucial moment.
For a moment, Gloriosa quickly weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and finally realized that it was an opportunity for Amazon Lily, and also a way out for Amazon Lily.
"Also, Enel, you and the Shadow Secret Guard are responsible for capturing Gecko Moria. Pain, have Jinbe sneak over to see me."
With Lin Yuan's current power, he naturally doesn't need to personally go to find Gecko Moria and Jinbe. According to his estimation, with his own ascension to the throne, the Shichibukai should appear soon.
He had no intention of taking down Doflamingo, nor was he specifically looking for Hawk Eyes. Both of them were extremely arrogant and had no leverage over them, so they were not on Lin Yuan's mind for the time being.
As for Bartholomew Kuma, with my intervention, he won't go undercover anymore. Even if he does go undercover, he'll have to inform me first. I can use him for now.
As for the remaining few, Boa Hancock is already his woman, Crocodile, Jinbe, and Gecko Moria. With these, the World Government's Shichibukai are a joke.
Lin Yuan was already looking forward to seeing the Five Elders ' expressions when the World Government formulated the Shichibukai strategy, ultimately benefiting themselves.
