Chapter 106: Vivian in Women’s Clothing
"Oh, you mean the Celestial Dragon's Hoof?" Vivian asked.
"You saw it?" Hancock's tone turned hostile upon hearing this.
"Of course I saw it. Is there a problem?" Vivian nodded, his tone very calm as he continued.
[You chose option 3, received reward: Planting Experience +1]
"What?"
Hancock was slightly stunned. "Do you not know what the Celestial Dragon's Hoof signifies?"
"What does it signify?" Vivian scoffed, his voice suddenly filled with anger. "I only know that those who bear this mark are victims who have been persecuted by the Celestial Dragons!"
"Victims?"
It was the first time Hancock had heard someone refer to slaves as victims, and her expression changed slightly.
Vivian continued, "That's right… In this world, there shouldn't be words like 'slaves.' Do you know there's a saying in my homeland? All life are created equal, with no distinction of nobility or inferiority, no racial prejudice. Everyone has the right to live, and everyone has the freedom to pursue happiness…"
"Everyone has the right to live?" Elder Nyon murmured softly.
"Everyone is equal, with no distinction of nobility or inferiority?" Hancock couldn't help but loudly retort, "What a joke, where would such a place exist? You're just deceiving me, aren't you?"
"Not exactly."
Thinking of his previous world, Vivian couldn't help but sigh, feeling a bit nostalgic. "It's just that I can never return to my homeland…"
Hancock: (⊙_⊙)
Elder Nyon: (′?︵?`)
Luffy: (?﹏?)
The atmosphere became oppressive again. Based on the previous conversation, the three instinctively thought that Vivian's home had been destroyed by the Celestial Dragons when he was very young.
A few seconds later, Luffy suddenly stopped crying, his face full of curiosity as he asked, "But, what is the Celestial Dragon's Hoof? Is it tasty?"
He instinctively thought that the Celestial Dragon's Hoof was similar to the wild boar hoof Vivian had given him a few days ago…
"Didn't you see the mark on her back five days ago?" Vivian asked.
"What mark?"
Luffy tilted his head.
At that time, Vivian had suddenly appeared and sat on him in the pool. He didn't see the Celestial Dragon's Hoof, or even Hancock's legs. Although Luffy wasn't interested in such things, thinking about it, he realized he had been chased by the Kuja Pirates and hid in the forest for five days without seeing anything, which seemed quite unfair.
"Forget it…"
Vivian waved his hand, signaling them to drop the topic. "Anyway, just know that we're on the same side!"
…
At the port of Amazon Lily.
A medium-sized warship was docked at the shore. Vice Admiral… no, now it should be Rear Admiral Momonga, was pacing back and forth impatiently with his arms crossed.
"Where is the Empress? It's been an hour, why hasn't she come out yet?"
"Is she planning to refuse the World Government's summons?"
"Sorry, please wait a little longer. My sister might still be bathing and changing clothes…" Sandersonia explained.
"With our Snake Princess's beauty, what's the harm in waiting a bit longer?"
"Exactly, even if we wait until the end of time, until the world is destroyed, our Snake Princess's beauty is completely forgivable!"
The warriors of the Kuja Pirates echoed from behind.
Momonga: "…"
These women… they all seem to have some issues, don't they?
"Hey, is the Empress of Amazon Lily really as beautiful as they say?" Momonga turned to a nearby Navy and asked.
The Navy nodded and whispered mysteriously in Momonga's ear, "It's said that any man who sees the Empress will be so captivated by her beauty that he'll turn into stone…"
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
Momonga frowned, feeling a bit more cautious.
Meanwhile…
"Lady Boa is coming!"
"Clear the way!"
The citizens gathered near the dock all knelt down, welcoming the stunning woman walking towards them with absolute reverence.
Similarly, the Marines standing behind Momonga had their eyes turn into hearts the moment they saw Hancock.
"Is that the Empress, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"
"She's… so beautiful…"
"I've never seen such a sexy and beautiful woman before…"
Her flawless face…
Her graceful figure…
And the disdainful look in her eyes as she glanced at them…
She was the very definition of a queen!
If this were Vivian's previous world, probably ninety percent of the people present would be shouting lines like "Sister, kill me!" or "Take my life!"
"Are you the one sent by Navy Headquarters?"
Stopping in front of the warship, Hancock glanced at Momonga and said coldly, "I can't even take a peaceful nap. Couldn't you wait a bit longer?"
Momonga: ???
"Empress, Ace will be executed at Marineford tomorrow morning. The World Government has issued an emergency summons. Please don't delay any longer."
Snapping out of the daze caused by Hancock's beauty, Momonga took a deep breath and spoke seriously.
But as soon as he finished speaking…
"Mero Mero Mellow!"
A huge pink beam shot out from Hancock's hand, enveloping all the soldiers on the warship.
In the blink of an eye, the Marines who had been marveling at Hancock's beauty turned into stone statues, losing all consciousness.
The citizens of Amazon Lily and the Kuja Pirates warriors present broke into a cold sweat at this sight.
"It's over… Lady Boa is acting recklessly again…"
"But with Lady Boa's beauty, it's completely forgivable."
"…"
"Empress, what are you doing? Are you openly defying the Marines?!"
Momonga, who had narrowly avoided being petrified by stabbing his leg with a sword, felt his initial admiration for Hancock's beauty turn into anger and disgust.
Pirates, they really are a bunch of filthy, despicable people!
At the same time…
"Defying? Of course not. Lady Boa just wanted to teach you men a little lesson, right, Lady Boa?"
Dressed in women's clothing, wearing a wig and lipstick, Vivian gently tugged on Hancock's sleeve and smiled at Momonga.
