Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 264 The loyalty of the Nine Snakes

"So..."

"You agree to lead the Nine Snakes Island to join the Straw Hat Pirates and make the Nine Snakes Pirates a member of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet!?"

In the early morning, the warm sea breeze blew over the ruined Nine Snakes Island.

The flames still burning in the wreckage swayed gently in the breeze, just like the Nine Snakes Island that survived the disaster, emitting its own light and heat under the new light.

In the side hall of the Amazon Lily Palace.

Red, who had not slept all night, had just returned and had not rested for long when he was immediately awakened by several bikini female guards who broke into the side hall and invited him to the temporary reception room for negotiation.

And those who had the same experience as him, of course, all the partners of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Only when they heard that Hancock would make such a huge decision overnight, many people in the Straw Hat Pirates suddenly showed a look of surprise.

Especially Sanji, after hearing that the country of women was going to establish a close relationship with the Straw Hat Pirates, he even began to imagine the scene of leading the women's team to conquer the world in the future.

However, at this moment, Hancock, who was sitting on a high seat, suddenly said:

"No! You misunderstood what I meant!"

After a busy night without sleep, Hancock, who was troubled by fatigue, exuded an inexplicable pitiful breath.

But her tone was still high and mighty, without any relaxation:

"The object of Nine Snake Island's loyalty is not the Straw Hat Pirates!"

"But you..."

"The vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates-Red!"

"Huh!?"

Hancock's words made the Straw Hat Pirates present suddenly stunned.

Nami on the side even grumbled in dissatisfaction:

"What does it mean? If you are loyal, you are loyal. If you are not loyal, you are not loyal..."

"We just think of it as helping an ungrateful person!"

"What's the point of being loyal to only Red?"

"Are you trying to split our pirate group!?"

Red, who was named, couldn't help but frown at this time.

"Hancock, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"It's very simple..."

As if she had expected the Straw Hat Pirates to react like this, Hancock's beautiful eyes flashed, and she explained seriously:

"I admit that if it weren't for your help, Nine Snake Island would probably not have survived yesterday's disaster, and might even have fallen directly into an irretrievable hell!"

"I also admit..."

"The power of the Straw Hat Pirates is far beyond my expectations!"

"The bounty offered by the World Government and the Navy to you is totally inconsistent with the strength you have shown."

"But..."

Hancock's tone was slightly slow.

At this moment, a hoarse voice suddenly came from outside the door, taking over Hancock's words.

"Let me say the next words, Snake Princess."

"What's up, mother-in-law?!"

The Sandasonia sisters guarding the door of the reception room looked at the short figure with bandages all over his body and crutches walking into the reception room step by step in astonishment.

Seeing the newcomer, Hancock's tone immediately became high:

"What are you doing here!?"

"Who allowed you to come in!?"

"Sandasonia, Marigorud, get this old man out!"

"Don't be nervous, Hancock!"

Facing Hancock's aggressive momentum, Granny Zha gently swung the cane in her hand and shook her head:

"I'm not here to stop you!"

After saying that, she directly passed the stunned and bewildered Sandasonia sisters, then raised her head and looked directly at Hancock:

"I'm just old, not dead!"

"As the former emperor of the Amazon Lily Kingdom of the Daughter Kingdom, I think I should be qualified to attend today's meeting!"

After the voice fell, Granny Zha sat on the high seat on the other side of Hancock, and then swept the Straw Hat people one by one with her old but bright eyes.

Finally, she stopped her gaze on Chihong.

"This is Brother Chihong, right?!"

"Thank you for the special medicine you sent me. Otherwise, I don't know if I can survive last night."

"You're too polite, Granny Zha." Facing Granny Zha's gratitude, Chihong smiled calmly.

At the same time, he also knew that although this old lady looked like she was in her twilight years, in fact, even at this age, her fighting ability could still be the best among the female warriors of Nine Snake Island.

It's just that she met two world-class players yesterday.

After nodding to Chihong and the Straw Hats, Granny Zha immediately became serious:

"Please don't misunderstand Hancock."

"In fact, she can make such a decision, which is against the ancestral precepts of the Nine Snakes!"

"Nine Snakes!?"

Chihong raised his eyebrows and couldn't help showing an interested expression.

Although he was very interested in Hancock and Nine Snakes Island when he watched One Piece in his previous life, he didn't seem to have much impression of the term Nine Snakes.

Granny Zha was not surprised to notice the doubts of Chihong and the others.

After all, compared to the fishmen, giants, long-armed races and other races that enjoy a certain reputation in the world, the Nine Snakes are indeed just a small transparent existence in the pirate world.

And compared to other races with obvious racial characteristics, the racial characteristics of the Nine Snakes are really a bit too secretive.

Granny Zha raised her head and continued:

"That's right!"

"The Nine Snakes are actually the native residents of Nine Snakes Island."

"Compared to the fish-men who can swim underwater and the giant giants, the characteristics of the Nine Snakes are very strange..."

"That is, if a woman has a certain bloodline from the Nine Snakes clan, the child she will give birth to will definitely be a girl!"

"However... because many changes in power and wealth will only fall on the heads of the men in the family, and women also have innate weaknesses in terms of strength."

"So a long time ago, the ancestors of the Nine Snakes chose to leave the community and settle down on this island that ordinary people cannot reach."

"And based on the name of the Nine Snakes clan, this island was named Nine Snakes Island."

"I don't know how long it has passed, but the Nine Snakes clan also has its ancestral motto that forbids men from entering the Nine Snakes Island and will never be loyal to external forces."

"Nine Snake Island actually has such a history..."

After listening to Grandma Ze's story, Robin, who was the most curious about history among the Straw Hats, suddenly became moved.

After all, just like the indifferent name of the Nine Snakes, these are knowledge that cannot appear in history books.

And because she had similar experiences, she was more able to empathize with the Nine Snakes' experiences than Nami.

"Of course, nothing is absolute."

Grandma Ya did not stop talking because of everyone's emotions.

"In order not to be completely isolated from the outside world, every once in a while, some powerful Nine Snakes will board ships out to sea to explore the outside world."

"At the same time, the Nine Snakes and the Amazon Lily Kingdom will not obstruct an individual's choice in any way."

"Just like Hancock became a Shichibukai in his own name in order to protect Kuja Island."

"So... what does this have to do with Kuji Island not being loyal to the Straw Hat Pirates?"

At this time, Chihong suddenly interrupted Grandma Ye's small history class and went straight to the topic.

"Hoo~"

Grandma Ze took a deep breath, and her eyes suddenly became profound:

"Actually, in the long history, it is not that the Nine Snakes have never been loyal to other forces or individuals."

"After all, in addition to being able to only give birth to female offspring, the Nine Snakes also possess domineering and friendly abilities that far exceed those of ordinary humans."

"However, in the end, the answers given by history are all very tragic."

"Because the forces that exist in the Nine Snakes will eventually be destroyed due to issues such as gender imbalance between men and women, or the confrontation between men and women for power."

"So the ancestral precepts of the Nine Snakes are not only protecting the Nine Snakes themselves, but also protecting all the forces that are favored by the Nine Snakes."

I understand, it’s easy to do female boxing~!

After hearing this, Chihong finally understood what Granny Ze wanted to express.

"The history of the Nine Snakes is a secret that only the royal family of Nine Snakes Island can know..."

"I think it was precisely to avoid such a situation that Hancock made that decision."

Hancock: Huh? !

Is it really? !

I just don't want to listen to instructions from anyone else except Chihong.

Seeing everyone's sudden turn of attention, Hancock was stunned for a moment, then immediately sat up and nodded seriously to his mother-in-law.

It was as if he was saying: "That's right! This king has such a profound understanding of justice and learns from history."

"so……"

Grandma Ze suddenly stood up and walked from her seat to the Straw Hats.

The old man suddenly fell to the ground and knelt down before the Straw Hats:

"The Nine Snakes will never forget your kindness."

"We will not succumb to force, but we are willing to make choices for the sake of friendship."

"I beg you all...to forgive the Nine Snakes for their willfulness."

"Ah this?!"

Grandma Zha's kneeling made everyone in the Straw Hats couldn't help but change their expressions.

Chihong turned her gaze to Luffy, the only one who didn't have any emotional fluctuations and was focused on the food in front of him, "What do you think, Captain?"

"ah!?"

Luffy, who had stuffed his mouth with food, turned his head in confusion and looked at Chihong, as if asking why his name was suddenly called.

Seeing Luffy's expression at this moment, the Straw Hats immediately understood...

This guy didn't even listen to their previous exchange.

There was no choice but to repeat the conversation between them and Hancock.

All he got in exchange was Luffy Hun's indifferent answer:

"Huh? Is this happening again?!"

Luffy muttered while using his big rubber mouth to scream at the meat on the stick bone:

"Didn't I say that? I can just leave this troublesome matter to you to decide."

"What kind of rule, loyalty... I don't understand it at all~"

"If you hadn't said that having more subordinates would be good for us when we became the Pirate King, I would have gone back to sleep."

"You guy..."

Although he had already guessed Luffy's reaction, seeing that this guy had already experienced a lot and understood a lot, but still behaved like this, sometimes Chihong couldn't help but doubt Luffy...

It's not like the Devil Fruit's ability really affected your brain, right?

"Oh well."

With a flash of thought, Chihong once again turned his gaze around the faces of his companions. After receiving the support of their encouraging eyes, he nodded immediately.

"Anyway, there is no difference between being loyal to me and being loyal to the Straw Hat Pirates."

"In that case..." Chi Hong suddenly stood up, and a strong aura of dominance suddenly condensed on his body, and he looked at Hancock who was on a high position.

Before the other party's face blushed, he said directly:

"I accept your loyalty!"

In an instant!

The offensive and defensive situation in this reception room was different!

[Pokémon: Boa Hancock]

[Personality: Arrogant (+Special Defense - Speed)]

[Attributes: Fighting, Fairy]

[Features: Queen's Majesty (The king of the tribe, awe-inspiring without anger.

Half an hour later, Red, who had moved to a higher position, slowly retracted his gaze from Hancock's attribute panel.

It has to be said that a strong man who can make a name for himself in the pirate world always has one or two things that surprise him.

For example, Hancock's characteristic...

The Queen's Majesty!

He originally thought that Hancock would have the characteristic of charming the enemy like Robin.

He didn't expect that the machine would eventually assign her such a characteristic.

Red is not unfamiliar with the characteristic of the Queen's Majesty.

After all, he has to cultivate several Pokémon like Gardevoir and Sweet Cold Queen in almost every generation of games.

It's just that the "Queen's Majesty" characteristic given by the machine has obviously been modified by the machine, and its effect is more in line with this name than the game effect.

"Can the characteristic effect change by controlling the strength of the power?"

"Interesting."

Red glanced at them, and then glanced at the attribute panels of the Sandasonia sisters one after another.

After seeing their unremarkable values ​​and the single attributes of one fire and one poison, he suddenly lost interest.

"How is it, Hancock?"

"I said I won't let you down, didn't I!?"

Red smiled slightly and said to the Hancock trio who were in a daze in the original position of the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Ah?!" Hancock was stunned for a moment when she was suddenly called.

Then her eyes, which were so shocked that they scattered, began to slowly focus, and a thought flashed across them.

"So, the power used by your partners before is also related to the Pokémon world you mentioned, Red?!"

"You can say that!" Red smiled and nodded, "But I only gave them a higher starting point."

"Being able to have the current strength is inseparable from their efforts."

"Of course, as long as you can show enough loyalty and value, I can even let all your Nine Snakes stand on a higher starting point."

"After all, my ability is not limited at all..."
