Hancock's eyes misted when she heard Ryu, ever since that day all she could think was him. As each day passed she longed to meet him, she wanted to be with him, to have him look at her with love and finally he accepted her.
" Um."
She shyly nodded. Hancock was a top beauty, her charm is undeniable. Her embarassed expression if seen by others would cause them to have a heart attack on the spot.
Nyon who listened from the side could only sigh, she knew how strong Ryu was and thus she was powerless to stop him. All she could do was to warn him.
" Snake princess, Ryu.....sir Ryu, if the world government comes to know of this then all of Amazon Lily would be in danger. Don't underestimate the world government, they were able to reign supreme for centuries, surely they have some form of trump cards.
I even have heard of a rumour stating about an ancient weapon in their possession. It's impossible to destroy them. So please take caution, don't let them know your status, of the past nor the present."
Hancock bit her lips when she heard Elder Nyon speak of the past.
Ryu asked " What you refer to is..... what happened to them as kids right? "
Elder Nyon nodded.
Ryu turned to Hancock and asked " Don't worry, this will hurt a bit but it will be alright."
He placed his hand behind her back, a warm gentle light engulfed her back. Hancock could feel the mark those despicable Celestial Dragons put on her when they caught her itch. It seemed as if thousands of ants were knawing on it.
Seconds later she felt a pleasant sensation through her body. Hancock used Observation Haki and she was shocked. Her eyes got teary and cried. She hugged Ryu tightly and cried her heart out.
Ryu didn't disturb her and let her be. He embraced her gently and let the pain that tormented her for years flow out.
Elder Nyon didn't understand what was happening. Marigold and Sandersonia were also confused, they have never seen her sister like this.
Few minutes later Hancock calmed down, she didn't say a word and bashfully looked at Ryu.
Hancock faces her sisters " My mark..... he removed it."
" WHAT!!?? "
Marigold and Sandersonia understood what Hancock meant. They looked at Ryu in shock, Elder Nyon was also stumped for words.
Ryu shrugged " It's very simple for me."
Marigold hesitated " Then...."
Ryu chuckled, he flicker his finger. Two orbs of light formed out of thin air and engulfed Marigold and Sandersonia's body. Both of them felt like thousands of ants crawl through their skin. But after, they also felt the mark disappear, both of them bowed deeply and thanked Ryu.
Ryu waved it off " Don't be so formal. She is my woman, it's only natural that I help you."
Hancock's face got red like as a tomato. She may come off as a strong woman but in reality she wasn't aware of how the relationship between a man and a woman worked.
Ryu spoke to the four of them " As for the World Government..... do you know why I didn't try to get rid of them till now? "
Nyon nodded. She was also puzzled by this, if Ryu really tried he may be able to do this but it seemed as if he had no intention of doing such thing.
Ryu smiled " Have you ever seen a lion go out of his way to squash an ant? "
Nyon was shocked.
Ryu continued " If an ant try to go against a lion he could simply kill it. Still.... ants can be annoying at times, so I will remove them."
Nyon was again stunned. The three Snake sisters were also shocked by Ryu's words, Hancock had a proud expression on her face that said
' That's my husband! '
Ryu's eyes trailed off towards the horizon. His eyes changed, they became pale yellow with golden mist swirling around it. Hancock was dazed as she saw Ryu's eyes.
' So beautiful.'
A woman in love is hopeless. To any powerhouse if they see his eyes they would feel absolute terror but all she saw was beauty in it.
His eyes flashed for a second and mumbled " Shattered Heaven."
His eyes returned to normal and said " It's done."
Nyon asked confused " What? "
Ryu smiled mysteriously " You will see it in tomorrow's paper."
********"
Mariejois.
The place was majestic, it was so beautiful to see but right now the place was in disorder. Seconds ago darkness covered this holy hand.
As the inhabitants looked up they saw a huge meteor fall towards them. Like headless chickens every single one of those arrogant Celestial Dragons ran away in fear. The elders were scared as well. With their power it was impossible to destroy such a huge meteor.
Quickly they made their decision and decided to play their ultimate card. Mariejois trembled and split apart, a huge weapon slowly rose from the ground. Just seeing it one could feel its power.
Light converged on the weapons body and it fired.
BOOOOMMMM
A huge energy wave hit the crashing meteor and blasted it into smitherines. Celestial Dragons had a scornful smile on their faces but that went away quickly and what replaced was utter despair.
When the smoke and dust due to the destruction earlier was gone they saw dozens of meteors same as the previous one fall towards Mariejois.
Their ultimate weapon could only destroy one at a time and even then it took time to charge. Moreover their weapon only had limited number of shots.
Among the remaining elders one of them possessed space ability. He tried to shift the meteors but found the space to be locked. His body felt like it fell into an icy hole when he understood what was happening.
Boom
Boom
Boom
Boom
Boom
The world trembled when these meteors crashed into Mariejois. Sengoku had already received reports regarding what was happening to the headquarters of world government but he was powerless to make any change.
Sengoku understood who was behind this but what could confused him was
' Why did he only move now? '
He wasn't surprised by Ryu's strength to summon such huge meteors, if he knew Ryu killed off the entire world government so that they wouldn't pester his women and her island... he would definitely have a wonderful expression.
*********
Next day.
Amazon Lily.
In a huge room decorated lavishly, a man and a women slept together. The woman was a breathtaking beauty while the man was perfect in every sense.
Although he accepted Hancock, Ryu didn't rush. A barrier was within Hancock's heart due to her past trauma. He gently held her in his embrace and slept soundly, he did take few advantages. He would be an idiot to not do so when an absolute beauty was in his arms.
Hancock yawned cutely and opened her eyes, an extremely handsome face came to her view. Her brain didn't register what happened for a second then she turned red. Smoke was starting to come off her head.
Ryu was also woken up, he took the great view presented before his eyes. Hancock wore a night gown which reached a bit below her waist. Her chest was so full and firm, her waist was so slim like a snake and had a S curve. Her legs were long, smooth and sexy.
Seeing a hot women like her Ryu felt a fire burn inside him but he forcefully suppressed his desires and kissed her. Hancock was shy but responded to Ryu's advance.
" Morning beautiful."
" Um."
Both of them were in their world when an ear piercing roar came from outside. Elder Nyon was in the main hall holding onto a Newspaper. Her hands trembled when she read the contents written on it. Marigold and Sandersonia was also with her, they were also stunned for words.
Ryu and Hancock got out of bed and went outside. Nyon seeing the both of them come out from the same room didn't show any surprise as she was occupied by what she read.
Hancock was annoyed, her time with Ryu was interrupted by this hag " Why are you shouting old hag!!? "
Nyon didn't respond and threw the newspaper to Hancock. She caught it and read the contents, her expression was delayed and the newspaper fell down.
A picture showing death and destruction was shown inside the paper with a title captured in bold letters
" Mariejois Destroyed! "
