235. Amazon lily's Reaction

Amazon lily, is in the Calm Belt. Everyone on the island is a woman.

Right now, inside the palace:

The present ruler of Amazon lily and the recently appointed Shichibukai, Boa Hancock – famous as the world's most beautiful woman – lounges on the throne, looking relaxed with her enchanting presence.

The palace's style is classical, resembling the refined architectural beauty of ancient East.

Flanking the throne on both sides are two tall women with distinct snake-like features. Additionally, female guards armed with guns and sticks stand watch.

"Hancock!!"

A petite elderly woman, her long white wavy hair adorned with a flower on the left side, walks steadily from the corner of the palace hall. She shouts loudly towards Hancock on the throne, holding a cane and waving a recently acquired newspaper.

"This is today's newspaper! Something crucial has happened!"

"——?!"

The two women beside the throne were shocked. They hadn't noticed when the white-haired old woman entered the hall!

"Granny Nyon..."

"This is my room, why are you here?" 

Hancock lifted her eyes slightly, asking coldly and arrogantly.

"Granny Nyon... How did you get in ?"

When the female guards realized this, they too appeared shocked.

The less visually appealing woman before them is the reigning empress, the former empress of Amazon lily three generations ago. Despite her age, her status within Amazon Lily is second only to the current empress, Hancock!

Ordinary tribesmen must bow their heads when they see her, indicating respect, and are not allowed to look directly at her!

"I can get in any way I want..."

The mother-in-law's expression remained unchanged, pretending to be serious.

However, Hancock was far more willful than she imagined. She immediately waved her hand and shouted to the guard next to her:

"Throw her out!!"

"Wait!! Snake Princess!!"

"You can't be so willful!! Tiger was arrested by the World Government!!"

Upon hearing Hancock's eviction order, Granny Nyon face collapsed. She raised the newspaper in her hand and shouted loudly.

"What did you say?!"

As soon as these words came out, Hancock, who was initially cold, suddenly became gloomy, and a strong murderous aura surrounded her.

"You…"

Granny Nyon pointed to the nearby female guards who were still confused, "Get out of here first!!"

After hearing the news about Tiger, Hancock understood.

There are certain things that cannot be known to other people on Nine Snakes Island. It's a lifelong shame for the three sisters!

"Yes! Snake Princess!"

The female guards bowed and quickly left.

"You said Tiger... was captured by the World Government?"

After confirming that only Granny Nyon and their three sisters were in the entire hall, Hancock asked in a deep voice.

"When did this happen?"

"About a week ago."

Because Amazon Lily is located in the Calm Belt, there are very few human settlements, so essentially no news birds come here.

Where there is no money to be made, Newsbird will not come.

Therefore, every time a newspaper arrives on Amazon Lily, there is a certain delay. Granny Nyon attaches great importance to the news value brought by every newspaper.

There is no way; she is the only one on the entire Amazon Lily who is interested in the trends of the world.

After all, this kind of thing is related to the safety of Amazon Lily!

"...Can the Shichibukai's privileges secure amnesty from the World Government?"

There was silence for a while, and Hancock looked a little uneasy.

As Atlas said before, even though Tiger is a fish-man, his act of liberating slaves is enough to make all those who have benefited from him be grateful for a lifetime!

"I'm afraid not... After all, the crimes Tiger committed cannot be tolerated by the World Government."

Granny Nyon smiled bitterly and shook her head.

She is also very grateful to Tiger, despite Hancock's bad temper.

But it is undeniable that as the empress of Amazon Lily, her strength and talent are undoubtedly the best among all previous emperors!

"So…"

"I will lead the Kuja Pirates to attack Impel down!!"

Hancock stood up suddenly, her face gloomy. But what she said made Granny Nyon broke into a cold sweat.

"Don't be impulsive, Snake Princess!!"

Granny Nyon was shocked when she heard this. She quickly dropped the crutch in her hand, showing an agility not suitable for her age. She jumped up, hugged Hancock's thigh, and screamed.

"Today, this country is protected by your Shichibukai title!!"

"In the past, relying on the solid barrier of the Calm Belt, we were able to resist foreign enemies and defend Amazon Lily!"

"But now, with the new shipbuilding technology, people from the World Government can come and go freely in this sea area..."

"The fact you are a Shichibukai is the only reason they will never set foot on Amazon Lily to stop the pirate ways!"

As she said this, she squeezed out a few tears.

"Once we lose our title and become a pirate nation, tragedy will happen!!"

"What will the young and old on the island do then?"

Hancock looked down at Granny Nyon, who was crying with tears streaming down her face. The corner of her mouth turned into a disgusting arc. Her legs and feet shook, and she kicked Granny Nyon away!

Then her body leaned back, his face turned to the sky, her index finger pointed at Granny Nyon who flew upside down and said with disdain.

"Even if my willfulness leads to the destruction of the country... everyone will forgive me!"

"The reason for that is, yes..."

"because I'm beautiful!"

Appeared, Hancock's 'excessively looking down on others' pose!

"Sister, please be gentle to her..."

Marigold on the side couldn't help but remind him.

"Who do you think you are? You are just a betrayer of Kuja. If the late emperor hadn't accepted you with kindness..."

Suddenly, Hancock quickly stepped forward and grabbed the still dazed grandma.

"That's why I'm hiding in the corner of the village and trying to survive..."

Granny Nyon struggled hurriedly with her hands and feet, but she still did not give up her rebuttal.

"Then you go and live your little life..."

"How dare you point fingers at the current empress? It's too presumptuous!!"

Uh-huh!!

boom--!!

There was a dull sound of landing, and Granny Nyon's body was instantly thrown out of the palace gate, and a purple snake was also thrown out.

Bang bang bang——!!

After patting the dust on her body, Granny Nyon showed no signs of anger on her face, but instead showed an inexplicable smile.

She understood that although Hancock didn't say it clearly, she had probably given up the idea of storming the Impel down.

Inside the palace.

Hancock picked up the newspaper that her mother-in-law had just left behind, and read the headlines word for word.

Kizaru personally deployed...

Crash-!!

Her eyes narrowed slightly, her slender hands suddenly exerted force, and the entire newspaper was crumpled into a ball.
