Chapter 386: Calm Belt

Of course, Hancock was very pleased that Yeruashi knew her name and origin.

It was as if an ordinary person had met his idol and was surprised to discover that he knew her name.

On the table was a large map of the entire world covering the four seas and Grand Line.

The four seas were dotted with many islands of different sizes, like a starry sky.

But

There were very few islands marked on the Grand Line, especially in the Calm Belt.

In the waters of the Calm Belt, only a few islands were marked on the map.

Calm Belt is full of sea kings, whose size can reach from hundreds of meters to several kilometers.

You can even place entire islands on the backs of the largest sea kings!

In the depths of the Calm Belt lurk sea kings of terrifying proportions, such as the giant Zunesha in the New World, who carries the island of Zou on his back.

The survivability and physical strength of such creatures is so great that even pirates of the level of Candy Generals and Three Disasters cannot resist them.

That is why Calm Belt has long been forbidden territory.

Even an Admiral would find it difficult to cross the Calm Belt with a group of marines, because at this time the Navy had not yet developed a way to hide ships from the perception of sea kings by covering the bottom of the ship with kairoseki.

So now there are very few records of the Islands in the Calm Belt.

Hancock looked at the map in confusion and after some hesitation, said, "I can't pinpoint the exact location of Amazon Lily, but it must be located somewhere in this region..."

Hesitantly, she reached out and traced the map with her finger.

Robin, who was standing nearby, frowned, "Such a range... it's like you're not showing anything at all."

"No, it's still useful."

Yeruashi smiled, "This rank is enough for me."

It would be troublesome to find a certain island in this world, because even Rinne Tenseigan's perception has its limits.

But if he knows the specific region of Calm Belt, perception will be able to cover a significant area and the search for the island will not take long.

The region Hancock observed was large for a normal person, to the point that searching for an island in it would be equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack, but for Yeruashi, this reduced the complexity of the search many times over.

Robin looked at Hancock, who was stunned, "Sir is going to send you home, don't you want to thank him?"

"Ah thank you..."

Hancock looked at Yeruashi with gratitude.

She would be grateful even if they were dropped off at the nearest island, but she didn't expect Yeruashi to decide to take them straight home.

The Calm Belt is considered a very dangerous and forbidden area for ordinary people, but Hancock knew very well that for someone like Yeruashi, it was nothing more than a backyard she could walk through if she felt like it.

Now they could definitely go home!

"Don't thank me, I wanted to go to the Calm Belt myself."

Yeruashi shook his head and closed the map, "You must be hungry, it's almost dinner time."

"I'll go cook."

Robin nodded and looked at Hancock, "Can you cook? If you can, then come and help me."

"Ah well..."

Hancock hesitated, then nodded and followed Robin into the kitchen.

Yeruashi couldn't help but smile at this scene.

Under normal circumstances, a twelve-year-old Hancock with Haoshoku no Haki certainly can't be restrained by an eleven-year-old Robin, but now, even though Hancock instinctively resists Robin's orders, she still obeys them, because Robin is part of his crew and a maid.

At this point, Yeruashi could vaguely see the shadow of the 'big Robin' from the original, in this 'little Robin', but looking at 'little Hancock', he did not see the 'Pirate Empress' from the original at all.

The experience of being enslaved by the Sky Dragons should have had a big impact on Hancock, but now she didn't survive.

Of course.

This does not negate her actual qualifications in any way.

At this point, Hancock has not yet awakened her Haoshoku no Haki, but when she does, there may be a significant change in her character.

...

Several days later.

Yeruashi's ship entered the waters of the Calm Belt and sailed in the direction of the region where Amazon Lily is located.

On the way, they were accompanied by extremely changeable and terrible weather, but after entering the waters of the Calm Belt, everything immediately calmed down, there was not even a light breeze.

At the point of contact between Calm Belt and Grand Line, it seemed that the whole world was divided into two parts by two completely different poles.

On one side, a terrifying storm and dark sky, and on the other side, not a cloud, not even a sea breeze.

"Incredible view..."

Robin stood on the edge of the deck, looking at the scene in shock.

Of course, she had read about Calm Belt many times in books, but the landscape she saw was many times more shocking and impressive than the description in the books.

The whole world seemed to be perfectly divided into two parts.

"It was really worth the trip."

Yeruashi said, looking at the beautiful and breathtaking scenery.

He could certainly divide the sea into two parts, creating diametrically opposed weather conditions, but even for him it would be difficult to create a Calm Belt surrounding the entire planet, because this world was much bigger than Naruto's world.

He pulled out his camera and turned to Hancock, who was standing nearby, "Hancock, stand here... no, just to the right, it's okay, don't move."

Blushing, Hancock obediently walked to the side of the ship.

Click! Click!

Yeruashi pressed the camera button and snapped a few pictures of Hancock against the Calm Belt border.

"Robin, don't stand on the sidelines."

Robin stood next to Hancock, and Yeruashi snapped a few more photos and then looked at the result with a smile.

Robin, age eleven, and Hancock, age twelve, against the backdrop of the Calm Belt border.

It was a beautiful photograph, worthy of a breathtaking landscape.

When Hancock was photographed by Yeruashi, she was very excited and blushed even more.

When she saw Yeruashi put the camera away, she said, "Mr. Yeruashi, I'll go make you some tea."

"Okay."

Yeruashi nodded with a smile.

Hancock quickly ran to the huts.

Usually it was Robin's job, but this time Hancock beat him to it.

Robin narrowed her eyes as Hancock ran off, then turned to Yeruashi with a sweet smile, "Does sir need a massage?"

"Yes."

Yeruashi, of course, did not refuse.

After entering the waters of the Calm Belt, he would have to activate Rinne Tenseigan from time to time to find the Amazon Lily, so he decided to stay on deck and bask in the sun.

When Hancock made tea and returned to the deck, she saw Yeruashi lying in the middle of the deck on a soft beach mat.

Robin stood on his back, gently pacing back and forth.

Seeing Hancock with a cup of tea in her hand, Robin lifted her chin and remarked, "Put the tea there for now."

"..."
