"Boss, I've found them!"
Boa Sandsonia turned to a beautiful woman much smaller than herself and said:
"But boss, there are more than a dozen powerful people on that ship, and each of them is incredibly strong. One of them even exudes an aura that I can vaguely sense from this distance. I have a feeling that he is an extraordinary being. Do we really want to take this job?"
As she spoke, a hint of worry appeared between Boa Sandasonia's brows.
She really didn't want to get involved in this mess.
However, the person who commissioned the mission was the Five Elders. If they refused to accept the mission to assassinate King Cobra of the Alabasta Kingdom, the Five Elders would threaten to remove the title of the eldest sister of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
For a pirate with no ties to the sea, the title of Shichibukai is something that is dispensable.
But this title holds extraordinary significance for Boa Hancock and the entire Amazonian lily kingdom.
As long as they possess the title of Shichibukai, they will not be wiped out by the Navy in the name of justice, and can live their lives in peace.
Women are like this: no matter if she is a strong woman or not, no matter how much she achieves, she ultimately wants to live a peaceful and stable life, rather than living in constant fear and uncertainty.
It was precisely for this reason that, even though they knew it was a hot potato, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and take on the task.
"What, are you doubting my abilities?"
A beautiful woman proudly raised her chin, just like a proud white swan.
If it were an ordinary person, they would probably think this woman's words were very offensive.
The speaker was no ordinary person, but Boa Hancock, known as the Empress.
She is the current emperor of the Amazon Lily Kingdom, a pirate nation located on Amazon Lily Island in the Calm Belt, and the current captain of the Kuja Pirates. She is the world's most beautiful woman, possessing both talent and beauty.
Boa Hancock was truly flawless, possessing a beautiful and athletic figure, a slender neck, soft and delicate shoulders, magnificent breasts, and a willow-like waist that perfectly complemented her peach-like figure. Any man who saw her here would be unable to resist lusting after her, wishing he could hold her tightly in his arms and cherish her dearly.
Wearing red high heels, Boa Hancock swayed her alluring waist as she walked step by step to the bow of the ship. Her delicate, long eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her long, curled eyelashes trembled slightly, adding a touch of ethereal purity to her dreamy and charming eyes, and further highlighting her intelligence and wit.
"Since I have accepted this extremely difficult mission from the Five Elders, there is no turning back. I must either successfully assassinate Cobra and retain my title as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, or fail and die on the battlefield."
Boa Hancock suddenly raised her slender finger, pointing it at the steel warship in front of her. A unique kind of Conqueror's Haki emanated from her, making her incredibly charming and invigorating all the pirates present.
"But I believe that there is nothing on this vast sea that can stop me!"
Seeing the Amazonian women, their morale soaring, eager to leap onto the steel warships and engage the navy in a fierce battle, Boa Sandersonia gazed at the empress, surrounded by admirers, and thought to herself:
"As expected of our leader, she dispelled our doubts with just a few words and boosted our morale!"
The two giant sea serpents seemed to understand human speech, and as soon as Boa Hancock gave the order, they immediately exerted all their strength to drag the pirate ship forward.
Before the Kuja Pirates discovered the steel warship, Yang Ming's scouts had already used binoculars to observe their presence and reported it to Yang Ming through the chain of command.
Upon learning that the ship on the horizon ahead was the famous Nine Serpents Ship, Yang Ming became quite interested and was eager to have a proper meeting with this empress whom he had only heard of but never seen.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Ming moved, Momousagi Gion and Tina grabbed his wrists from both sides.
"Yang Ming, I heard that the empress has sorcery skills. All the men who have seen her have turned to stone. You mustn't go."
“That’s right. You can tell the Empress isn’t a good person just by listening to her. Besides, there’s no need for you to get involved in this kind of thing. Shouldn’t we handle it for you?”
Seeing the two women's slightly jealous expressions, Yang Ming understood immediately that they were feeling threatened and afraid that he would be infatuated with the Empress, so they spoke up to stop him.
Yang Ming subtly freed himself from the two women's grasp, smiled without saying much, and stood at the bow of the boat, gazing across the water. As if deliberately provoking and teasing the two women, he clicked his tongue in amazement and said:
"This empress is truly beautiful."
"It seems like the moon is covered by light clouds, and it flutters like the snow covered by the flowing wind."
Chapter 302 First Encounter with Empress Boa Hancock
"It seems like the moon is covered by light clouds, and it flutters like the snow covered by the flowing wind."
Hearing Yang Ming recite a poem praising Empress Boa Hancock, Tina and Momousagi Gion felt a pang of jealousy.
Although neither of them was highly educated and could be described as complete warriors, it didn't mean they didn't know how to appreciate things.
From these poems that had never appeared before, they not only appreciated the beautiful language, but also discerned Yang Ming's admiration for Boa Hancock, whom he had never met.
They've been by Yang Ming's side for so many years, and they've never received a single word of praise from him!
But now, things have turned out differently. Before Empress Boa Hancock even got close, Yang Ming seemed to have his entire soul drawn away by her.
Tina and Momousagi Gion exchanged a glance, as if at that moment they had put aside their open and covert struggles and formed a united front, determined to be irreconcilable enemies with Empress Boa Hancock!
The two women's subtle actions naturally did not escape Yang Ming's sharp eyes.
Seeing the change in the two women's minds, Yang Ming chuckled inwardly.
There is a phenomenon known as the catfish effect.
This refers to the catfish's ability to disrupt the small fish's environment while simultaneously activating the small fish's survival instincts.
Since breaking off his relationship with Tina, Yang Ming discovered that Tina and Momousagi Gion were cheating on him, and the two women began to compete openly and secretly.
Just like in female-oriented novels, the women in the palace always have to compete to outshine each other in order to win the emperor's favor.
This situation may be caused by a woman's innate jealousy and possessiveness.
Tina and Momousagi Gion are both women, so naturally they are not immune to this.
Moreover, even in reality, mistresses will always have a showdown with the wife.
Managing relationships between women is like straightening out a tangled mess; it's no easy task.
Yang Ming certainly didn't want any bad signs to appear in his team.
At this time, creating a strong imaginary rival for them would allow Tina and Momousagi Gion to put aside their prejudices. Perhaps, in order to keep Yang Ming's composure, the two women would even come up with some new tricks to win his favor.
Thinking of the latter, Yang Ming, having tasted the flavor of foreign languages, couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement and planned to have an in-depth exchange with them on foreign languages later.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, host, for reciting a classic line from Honor of Kings. You have been awarded one chance to draw a prize. Would you like to start the prize wheel?"
A lottery wheel slowly appeared in my field of vision, displaying three categories of prizes: hero skins, runes, and hero skills.
Hero Skins: Wuling Immortal Lord, Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, Flying Balance...
Inscriptions: Hunting, Eagle Eye, Mutation...
Hero Skills: Dragon's Roar, Thunderous Dragon, Word of Power Barrier...
【Conflict】: Red inscription, slightly increases physical attack and physical lifesteal.
The steel warships representing the Navy and the Kuja ships representing the Kuja Pirates are traveling towards each other at an extremely fast speed.
Compared to the Kuja Pirates, who still use large sea snakes to tow their ships, the steel warships, powered by steam engines, are dozens of times faster than the Kuja ships.
This is like two predators fighting in the forest. One is a jackal, a tiger, and a leopard. They thought the other was also a predator, but they found that the other suddenly tore off its disguise and revealed its true dragon form.
Suddenly, Boa Hancock realized that the opponent's speed far exceeded that of ordinary ships. In fact, because Yang Ming's flagship had been modified by Franky and benefited from Franky's mastery of one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, the steel warship approached like a sea fortress. Boa Hancock also noticed something was wrong at this time, but it was too late!
As the two sides drew closer, Boa Hancock finally spotted several people standing at the bow of the opposite ship.
The leader was tall and robust, with long, handsome black hair and a resolute, handsome face. His cheeks were sharply defined, giving him a sense of decisiveness and ruthlessness. Beneath his flowing bangs, a pair of scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan eyes revealed an aura of domineering dominance.
The seemingly ordinary naval uniform, when worn by Yang Ming, immediately accentuated his perfectly proportioned physique. His muscles were strong and powerful, yet the lines were smooth and even, without appearing bulky or fat. Instead, it exuded a masculine aura.
What's even more astonishing is that this Shura general is surrounded by a group of beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, whose looks and appearance are in no way inferior to Boa Hancock.
When Boa Hancock discovered Yang Ming, Yang Ming also saw the three sisters clearly.
The eldest, Boa Hancock, is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with the Love-Love Fruit ability.
The second oldest, Boa Sandersonia, is a Zoan-type Snake-Snake Fruit user with the ability to transform into a snake.
The third one, Boa Marigold, is a Zoan-type Snake-Snake Fruit user with the Cobra form.
It wasn't until he got closer and saw Boa Hancock's appearance clearly that Yang Ming realized she truly deserved the title of the world's most beautiful woman.
Boa Hancock has the stunning figure of a top model, standing at a height of 1.9 meters. Her long, smooth, jet-black hair is styled in a Hime cut, her face is like a crescent moon, her lips are cherry-like, and her skin is as white as mutton fat jade, shining brightly in the snow.
What is most captivating is her extremely high breasts, which sway slightly with the sea breeze. Her beautiful figure, which is much more mature than that of her peers, is exquisite and translucent. Even her breasts support her cheongsam high, as if they might burst out at any moment. Her whole body exudes a unique fragrance.
Even though there is still some distance between them, when the sea breeze blows, Yang Ming can feel a refreshing fragrance wafting towards him, giving him a sense of clarity from the inside out.
Seeing Boa Hancock's beauty, Tina and Momousagi felt an even greater sense of urgency than before, and they looked at the empress they were meeting for the first time with hostility.
Boa Hancock didn't take the two women's hostile gazes to heart, dismissing them as mere jealousy from ordinary women.
Boa Hancock was already used to these kinds of looks; she had grown accustomed to them over the years.
If looks could kill, Boa Hancock would have died countless times in her life.
As the saying goes, "debts are never a burden," and it's just a matter of a few envious glances.
Boa Hancock stood gracefully at the bow of the ship, a giant snake's head resting on her shoulder. The snake flicked its tongue, seemingly threatening Yang Ming and his group, or perhaps it was taking advantage of their power.
"General Shura, we have come not to oppose the Navy, but only to take one person from your ship."
The moment Boa Hancock saw Yang Ming, she knew she had been tricked by the Five Elders.
If it were an ordinary Vice Admiral from the Marine Headquarters, Boa Hancock was confident that she could take Cobra's life without harming herself.
But the person in front of him was not a vice admiral from the Navy Headquarters, but Admiral Shura, who was known for his iron-fisted methods and profound wisdom, so the situation was completely different.
Moreover, it is said that this Asura General also possesses powerful Conqueror's Haki!
Boa Hancock knows her own situation well. Her Paramecia-type Love-Love Fruit ability can turn anyone who is attracted to her into stone, but this ability will be useless against someone with powerful Conqueror's Haki.
That's why she was unusually gentle in her tone and didn't try to take it from the start.
"Oh?"
Yang Ming looked slightly surprised, tilted his head, and asked:
Who are you looking for? And what is the matter?
"The person I am looking for is King Cobra of the Kingdom of Alabasta."
Yang Ming and Boa Hancock's conversation was not concealed, and Cobra, being inside the steel warship, could naturally hear it clearly.
When Cobra heard that this renowned empress was actually seeking him out, he couldn't help but fall into the common trap of all men, thinking to himself:
"Could it be that she wants to be my queen?"
Fortunately, Cobra wasn't a narcissist. He knew his own situation. Even before the Kingdom of Alabasta changed hands, he wasn't confident he could conquer the Empress. Now that the Kingdom of Alabasta was under the control of the Revolutionary Army, he was like a stray dog, temporarily living under Yang Ming's ship. Only after going to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise to compete for the Five Elders would he be able to make a comeback.
Therefore, Boa Hancock's purpose in searching for him is not so simple.
