CHAPTER 170: CHAPTER 170: KARL AND HANCOCK, IDOL AND DIE-HARD FAN (PART 1)
Boom————!
While Hancock was staring infatuatedly at Karl’s full-body picture.
On the deck of the Perfume Yuda, Sandersonia and Marigold were leading the Kuja warriors, who were one in a hundred and had basically all mastered Armament and Observation Haki, to resist the roaring tsunami.
Like Wano Country in the New World, the Haki system of Amazon Lily was also the most complete Haki system in the world.
If the Haki of Wano Country was called Ryuo.
Then the Haki of Amazon Lily was called Kuja Haki.
Because of the incomparably complete Haki system, on this island, genius warriors who awakened Haki through systematic training at a few years old and mastered two types of Haki in their teens were not a rare existence.
Although the island was entirely populated by women, with its complete Haki system, Amazon Lily was one of the world’s renowned powerful nations.
In addition, its geographical location was in the Calm Belt, which had a large number of Sea Kings.
Before warships could freely cross the Calm Belt, Amazon Lily, like Wano Country a few hundred years ago, stood undefeated, no matter which power it offended.
In the eyes of the Supernova pirate crews, a tsunami a hundred meters high and several hundred meters wide was an irresistible natural disaster.
To the Kuja Pirates, however, it was a trivial matter.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh... Boom boom boom boom boom...
Under the command of the two Boa sisters, the Kuja warriors raised their simple bows and arrows, which looked as if they had been casually picked up from the ground, and shot a rain of arrows that whistled through the air at the oncoming tsunami.
When the small rain of arrows hit the tsunami, which could easily capsize a large galleon.
A series of cannonball-like loud bangs immediately exploded on the tsunami.
The power was not much different, but the number was extremely astonishing. The Haki fluctuations formed a powerful shockwave.
The several-hundred-meter-wide tsunami was actually knocked down by a small part by this shockwave.
And so...
The tsunami, missing a small part, brushed past both sides of the Perfume Yuda.
"Huh... they blocked it?!"
Seeing that the tsunami had not capsized the galleon, Nami, who was floating in the air, was slightly taken aback.
Immediately after, a mischievous smile appeared on Nami’s face, "It seems it’s not a merchant ship, but a pirate ship with considerable strength."
"In that case, I won’t hold back anymore."
After finishing, Nami used her Float-Float Fruit ability to its fullest and raised both her hands upwards.
In an instant, the sea seemed to have become angry.
Countless tons of seawater formed giant waves that surged up, quickly forming a giant tsunami several hundred meters high, which seemed to block out the sky, and once again roared towards the pirate ship ahead.
This tsunami was second only to the one that Whitebeard had created with his Tremor-Tremor Fruit at the beginning of the Summit War.
Facing this tsunami, even from a great distance, the Kuja Pirates could feel its terror.
Not only them, but even the three of them, Karl included, who were doing bad things in the sea below, were forced to end their battle early by the great commotion Nami had caused.
"Your Majesty..."
Seeing that an even larger and more terrifying tsunami had appeared in the sea ahead.
The faces of Sandersonia and Marigold changed slightly. As if they had realized something, the two looked at each other, then quickly ran back into the cabin and reported to Hancock.
"A man-made tsunami... an ability user..."
Hancock, who had come out of the cabin, ignored the admiring and adoring gazes of her subordinates on both sides. She looked at the giant tsunami that was approaching from afar, and whose terror could be felt even from an unknown distance, and said with some surprise, "A powerhouse of this level has actually appeared in this Paradise-like sea area this year?"
"Sandersonia, Marigold, you are in charge of organizing..."
With a light leap, Hancock jumped onto the head of a sea serpent and sat down. Then, with her long, straight, jade-like legs exposed from her cheongsam, she said lightly, "The warriors, let me see your growth this year!"
"Yes, Lady Snake Princess!!!"
As Hancock’s words fell, the eyes of the Kuja warriors all turned into red hearts, and their whole bodies seemed to have been injected with chicken blood.
And so...
Under the command of Sandersonia and Marigold, the Kuja warriors once again raised the bows and arrows in their hands, and drew their bowstrings to the fullest at the oncoming giant tsunami.
After wrapping the arrows with their maximum output of Armament Haki, a giant rain of arrows shot out at the giant tsunami from a distance of several hundred meters.
Boom boom boom boom boom...
The rain of arrows landed on the tsunami, and once again a series of explosions sounded.
But this time, the shockwave formed by the hundred-plus Haki fluctuations could not break down a part of the tsunami.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
In response, the Kuja warriors seemed to have already expected this.
After the first round of arrows was shot, they once again drew their bowstrings to the fullest.
To enhance their attack power, they even put down their simple bows and arrows and temporarily made a large bow with the pythons wrapped around their bodies, and shot another rain of arrows at the giant tsunami.
One after another...
Countless rains of arrows bombarded the tsunami.
The tsunami, composed of countless tons of seawater, seemed unchanged on the surface, but its power had actually been greatly reduced.
When the tsunami finally reached the front of the Perfume Yuda.
Whoosh————Boom!!!
Hancock’s figure disappeared from the head of the sea serpent out of thin air.
The sound of something breaking through the air had just reached the ears of the Kuja warriors.
A deafening explosion sounded from the tsunami in front.
Like a paper tiger that was strong on the outside but weak on the inside, being mercilessly torn apart.
Hancock simply held the back of her head with both hands, her graceful figure spinning a few times in the air, and kicked out with her right foot as if she were dancing.
The tsunami in front of the Perfume Yuda was completely blasted apart by a terrifying shockwave.
Just like before, the broken piece of the tsunami brushed past both sides of the Perfume Yuda.
As a powerful nation with a long history like Wano Country, the biggest difference between Hancock and Doflamingo was...
The former, in Sengoku’s mouth, was a "powerful woman."
The latter, in the mouths of the seniors of the same era as Sengoku, was just a "cunning brat."
As a fighting race with the most complete Haki system, Kuja Haki naturally also had the highest level of application, external release and internal destruction, and even the training method for the super-powerhouse’s Conqueror’s Haki Infusion, as well as the experience of countless predecessors.
In addition, with the powerful Paramecia Love-Love Fruit, Hancock’s strength could be ranked in the first tier of the Seven Warlords.
"Forward..."
After landing back on the head of the sea serpent from the air, Hancock struck a pose of looking down on everything with arrogance.
Pointing in the direction of the roaring tsunami, she said in a deep voice, "Let me see who dares to provoke me!"
"...Sorry, my family has caused you trouble."
Almost as soon as Hancock’s words fell, a man’s voice suddenly entered her ears.
This voice, which she had just heard on the live broadcast a while ago, although it was relatively unfamiliar, had left a deep impression on Hancock. It immediately made her delicate body stiffen slightly.
"Lord... Karl?"
Almost subconsciously, Hancock called out the honorific that, for three years, she had only said when she was alone in her room, looking at Karl’s picture.
Karl: "???"
