“So what does it have to do with you?!”
“What if she starts searching for you again when you go missing?”
With a whoosh, Hancock seemed to appear out of thin air, angrily waving her hands and feet, finally returning to the outside world.
At this time, the sky was darkening, and it was getting late.
Stepping on the muddy ground, Hancock complained about her shoes to the camouflage Den Den Mushi: “My shoes!”
With a pair of whooshing sounds, her two shoes flew out from the Den Den Mushi’s eyes, one from each side.
Hancock was extremely displeased, almost unable to hold back her anger and wanting to stomp on the Den Den Mushi.
Seeing the Den Den Mushi looking at her with a lovesick expression, Hancock finally let it go.
“Nee San (Elder Sister), where have you been?” Sandersonia approached, visibly relieved to see Hancock.
If Nee San (Elder Sister) went missing again, it would really alarm Snake Princess and the whole city would be searched.
Sandersonia noticed a colorful snail that blended into the ground slowly crawling away and asked, “Nee San (Elder Sister), what’s that?”
Hancock replied indifferently, “Just a pesky bug!”
…
Outside Kuja City, in the woods.
In front of another pile of assorted fruits, roasted wild meats, and grilled fish, Liam looked calm and composed as he started eating.
Robin, who was sitting nearby reading, shook her head.
…
In the afternoon, as soon as training ended, Hancock excitedly went to find that annoying bug.
Unexpectedly, the Den Den Mushi was already waiting for her on the path out of the Kuja training ground. If Hancock hadn’t consciously been looking for it, she might have completely overlooked the Den Den Mushi, which blended seamlessly with the environment.
At the training ground of Stand City, Hancock danced gracefully, delivering kicks as she fought against the dark armor.
Robin quietly read a book. Liam trained on the other side.
…
“Liam, why did you write that kind of story…” Robin squatted down and poked at Liam’s hot skin with her finger. “About Hancock being captured by Celestial Dragons and such…”
Liam lay on the ground like a corpse, his muscles twitching, steam wafting from various parts of his body, barely breathing.
“Just… wanted to… wicked heart wicked heart… her… and… that’s all…”
“Really?” Robin poked him again. His skin was unbelievably hot, and his muscles were incredibly stiff.
…
At the Kuja training ground, Hancock yawned, casually pulled back her snake bow, and shot an arrow wrapped in Busoshoku Haki at a tree, slicing it in half.
Her younger sisters Sandersonia and Marigold whispered to each other while occasionally glancing at their Nee San (Elder Sister), who seemed bored.
“Sonia, Nee San (Elder Sister) has been acting really strange lately…”
“Yeah, Mari… These past few days, Nee San (Elder Sister) has been going off alone and hasn’t brought us along…”
…
At the training ground of Stand City, Hancock shouted that she wanted to duel Liam.
A minute later, the rare collaboration of Liam’s body and Stand pinned Hancock to the ground.
Hancock was pressed down by them, unable to move, and could only keep slapping the ground with her hands.
…
Under the starry moonlight, in the Kuja woods.
In the dark forest, pairs of beastly eyes lit up.
Liam appeared out of nowhere with Robin.
The beasts’ eyes scattered and fled.
“Trying to run?” Liam cackled, transforming into swirling air and chasing after the animals fleeing into the dark night. “In front of my Wind-Wind Fruit, there’s no escape route for you!”
Robin followed behind with her hands behind her back, puzzled. “Isn’t he the Gasu Gasu No Mi (Gas Gas Fruit) user?” Then she thought, “Well, the essence of wind is airflow, so calling it the Wind-Wind Fruit doesn’t seem wrong…”
…
Bang!
Hancock’s foot collided with the dark armor’s fist for what felt like the hundredth time.
Busoshoku Haki and Tekkai clashed hard against each other.
‘Her Busoshoku Haki had grown stronger.’ B.I.B. made this judgment.
‘Was its fist harder?’ Hancock was secretly surprised.
“I’m not fighting anymore!” Hancock exhaled, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and sat down beside them. “Let’s take a break…”
B.I.B. remained indifferent and quietly walked aside.
Liam continued training alone on the other side of the training ground. Rather than practicing Rokushiki, he seemed to be exploring Training Life Return.
Physical potential, mental guidance.
Rokushiki, hypnosis…
Hancock watched for a while but eventually gave up, unable to figure out what Liam’s training was about; it seemed merely to be simple physical exercise.
She turned her head in boredom and saw Robin reading a book.
Seeing the book reminded Hancock of that one book, the one that had wickedly affected her heart and caused her nightmares for several days… Speaking of which, she hadn’t finished reading it yet!
“Are you really going to read the continuation?” Robin tried to ask.
“Yeah!” Hancock reached out, saying, “I don’t believe there’s anything annoying left in it…”
Robin glanced at the dark armor, which remained silent. Then she looked at Liam, who was engrossed in his training and didn’t notice what was happening over here…
Soon, Hancock once again obtained that book.
She mentally prepared herself, quickly flipped through the annoying content she had read last time, and found the part she had left off, patiently continuing to read.
Before long, a scream of frustration echoed through the fortress of Stand City.
“What is this? What is this?!”
Hancock furiously threw the book on the ground, stomping on it twice in anger.
Robin facepalmed… She had read the entire book and understood why Hancock was upset.
In the subsequent story, the protagonist, Hancock, planned an escape scheme; she used a towel boiled in water to wipe Luffy’s forehead and cheeks, pretending he had a fever, in an attempt to get the Celestial Dragons to take him out for treatment…
However, the Celestial Dragons were extremely cautious and only said they would bring medicine the next day, leaving immediately after locking the door…
The protagonist, Hancock, had no choice but to let her son feign death the next day, wrapping him in a mat and waiting for the Celestial Dragons to come with the medicine. When they arrived, she cried and scolded them for killing her son Luffy, pretending to be hysterical when they tried to check the “corpse”…
The Celestial Dragons carried the “corpse” away, and on the way, Luffy, who was pretending to be dead as instructed by his mother, managed to slip away when he encountered a kind passerby named Tiger…
But just when Robin thought this story would finally have a good ending and the mother and son would be saved, she turned the page to find that when Tiger brought Luffy to the room where the protagonist, Hancock, was imprisoned, she had already been swiftly killed by the Celestial Dragons, who had rushed back…
This was truly a thoroughly tragic ending, at least for the protagonist.
Liam had done it on purpose! Robin was sure of that… Perhaps what Liam had said that day was just to wickedly affect Hancock, and he wasn’t completely talking nonsense…
After Hancock finished reading the absurd continuation of the story, her mood not only didn’t improve but became even worse!
What the heck is this!
Why did it turn out like this?
Just because she was deceived by a “man” called “Celestial Dragons,” did it have to become so tragic?!
Hancock transformed her grief and rage into strength, fighting even more fiercely against the dark armor.
…
On this day, when Hancock’s foot collided with the dark armor’s fist for the umpteenth time, B.I.B.’s fist finally enveloped itself with Busoshoku Haki for the first time.
