Chapter 389

The empresses of the Amazon Lily generally did not hold the throne for too long.

Most of them were young women, very rarely remaining on the throne even before the age of forty.

The reason for this is quite simple.

The Amazon Lily Empress is responsible not only for robbing and hunting the sea kings, but also for many of Amazon Lily's internal matters.

With such a life, it is simply impossible to have children.

According to the long tradition of the Amazon Lily, each of the female warriors must give birth to a child, because it depends on the stable maintenance of the number of the tribe.

Even the Empress remains a normal woman.

Constantly observing how other women give birth and raise cute daughters, after reaching a certain age, the Empress also has a desire to give birth to a child.

Therefore, the Empresses of the Amazon Lily usually leave the throne at a fairly early age, and do not rule until old age.

As for the successor...

According to the traditions of the Amazon Lily, the next Empress is chosen in a duel, not by right of blood.

The most powerful female warrior, Amazon Lily, becomes the Empress.

Therefore.

In order to become the next Amazon Lily Empress, Hancock will have to surpass many other competitors by becoming the strongest female warrior.

This was, of course, an extremely difficult task for Hancock, who was now only twelve years old.

But Hancock, as the owner of the royal will, had a desire to become the strongest female warrior of the Amazon Lily from the very beginning, and Yeruashi's words only strengthened her intention.

She will definitely become the Amazon Lily Empress!

«...»

The Empress turned her head several times to look at Hancock and Yeruashi, and then abruptly jumped back onto the Kuja Pirate ship, " Set sail!»

She shook her head, noticing that Hancock was still looking at the Yeruashi ship, " You can't make contact with men at that age...»

There is an instinctive attraction between men and women.

This is the foundation of life.

But men can't live on Amazon Lily.

This has long been the main taboo of the Kuja Tribe.

That is why, only when women grow up to a certain age and begin to feel the desire to have children, they are told about men and where children come from.

This was done so that women did not feel attracted to men and perceived them solely as a tool.

Following this tradition, the women of Amazon Lily catch strong men to conceive a child and break up with them when it's all over.

The contact should be as short as possible to eliminate the possibility of feelings.

But Hancock apparently spent quite a lot of time with this man on the ship, which naturally led to feelings for the opposite sex.

This is very bad for Amazon Lily women.

Long ago, such women appeared from time to time, but worst of all, they did not rarely betray Amazon Lily because of this.

The most recent example was the previous Amazon Empress Lily.

The Empress didn't want to see Hancock, who had great talent and potential, transform into the previous Amazon Empress Lily.

So after a moment's thought, she said, " Hancock, don't be too grateful to this man...»

"Although he saved you, he also put you in great danger.»

"You were just lucky enough to come across us while sailing, otherwise this ship would have been destroyed by the sea kings sooner or later.»

There were other women nearby who had noticed Hancock's affection for Yeruashi.

One of them said, " The Empress is right, although it may seem that he was kind in agreeing to bring you home, but a man who dared to go to Kalm Belt so recklessly is not trustworthy.»

"Men are just our prey.»

The surrounding women expressed their opinion.

Hancock, who had been watching Yeruashi's ship recede, turned her head, looking strangely at the women around her.

She wanted to say that the Yeruash were much stronger than they could imagine, to the point that the sea kings were not dangerous at all, and there was nothing rash about sailing the Kalm Belt, but she was simply not allowed to open her mouth.

Sandersonia and Marigold were also unable to interrupt the women, who had been talking incessantly all this time.

While the women talked incessantly to Hancock.

Yeruashi's ship had already sailed quite a distance.

At this moment, the Empress suddenly narrowed her eyes and chuckled, " I came!»

Immediately after the Empress ' words, a huge wave rose several hundred meters away from the Yeruashi ship.

In the middle of the waves, the head of the sea king appeared, reaching a length of almost one kilometer.

The small ship of the Yeruashi, was no bigger than the tooth of this huge sea king!

"This...giant sea king!»

The female warriors of Amazon Lily exclaimed in a daze as they looked at the huge sea king in the distance.

Sea kings vary greatly in size.

Kuja pirates usually hunt sea kings several hundred meters long in order to return to the Amazon Lily with more meat.

But the sea king, almost a kilometer long, is beyond what they can deal with.

Too big!

This is already much more than the sea kings they are able to hunt.

They can only rely on the sea kings ' fear of the sea serpent venom to safely retreat.

As for hunting such a sea king with poison...

Once in a frenzy, such a sea king can easily, with just a flick of his tail, smash their ship into splinters!

Even if successful, such a hunt is bound to incur huge losses.

There was no point in paying such a bitter price for the sea king's meat.

"Look, Hancock.»

The Amazon Empress Lily looked indifferently at the giant sea king and the Yeruashi ship in the distance: "Luck is very changeable, if you hadn't accidentally stumbled upon us, you would have been buried in the sea right now with this man, so he's not worthy...»

The Empress ' voice broke off abruptly.

All the female warriors on the deck of the Kuja Pirate ship stared at the sea in the distance in a daze.

Their eyes widened abruptly, as if some incredible scene had unfolded there.

On the other side.

The giant sea king, almost one kilometer long, opened its huge mouth and rushed towards the tiny Yeruashi ship, intending to swallow it in one fell swoop.

But at the last moment.

Yeruashi, who had been standing quietly on the deck all this time, took a step.

He just clenched his left fist and slammed it up.

Bang!!!

The head and upper part of the sea king, which is almost one kilometer long, exploded loudly and disappeared without a trace.

The lower part of the sea king's body froze, sticking out on the surface of the sea.

"I've heard that the meat of the great sea kings tastes very good...it's worth trying.»

Yeruashi lowered his fist and looked at Robin, who was standing next to him.

Robin calmly looked at the sea king's body sticking out of the water and nodded, " I haven't tried it either, but according to the information from the books, this meat really tastes good, then I'll try to cook it.»

"Okay, I'll look forward to it.»

Yeruashi smiled and waved his palm, cutting off the most delicate parts of the sea king.

Then he froze the meat and went to the second floor of the ship with Robin.

The ship's deck was empty, as if the previous scene was just an illusion.
