"Oh dear! It's too late to say all this now!" Joz said in distress.

"Hehe~" Vista chuckled calmly, "Actually, if you ask me, this is easy to handle~"

"Since she's taken hostages, so can we!"

As Vista spoke, he glanced at the Empress and the few Kuja warriors beside the stone statue.

There were originally dozens of female warriors here, but the Snake Princess had them disperse, leaving only a few to provide her with some support.

"Hey? Great idea!" Joz's eyes lit up.

"Hehe~"

Vista smiled, then instantly unleashed his speed and charged towards the female warriors!

Joz laughed and followed suit.

Marco, however, sighed. For some reason, he felt that things might not be so simple.

However, he couldn't think of a better way at the moment, so he had no choice but to let his two brothers do it.

The Snake Princess stood amidst the stone sculptures, coldly watching as Vista instantly captured a female warrior and placed a knife to her neck.

The remaining four female warriors hid among the stone statues.

Joz chuckled from the side and said, "Empress, I ask you, are my petrified brothers still alive?"

The Snake Princess covered her mouth and chuckled, her gaze sharp: "Who knows~ Perhaps she's still alive, or perhaps she's already dead~"

As she spoke, the Snake Princess reached out and stroked the arm of a stone statue, and then—

Click!

He broke off the stone statue's arm, casually threw it at his feet, and stepped on it!

He stomped it to pieces!

"Why don't you come up and take a look for yourselves, and touch it? Hehe~"

The Snake Princess's wicked and arrogant behavior enraged Jozu.

"You woman, if you dare touch my brothers again, believe me, I'll kill this woman!"

Jozu glared and gritted his teeth, reaching out his large hand and grabbing the head of the female warrior being held hostage by Vista, as if he were about to crush her head at any moment.

"Heh heh, your Whitebeard Pirates are really impressive!"

"Two grown men, holding a young woman hostage."

"It would be terrifying if word got out!"

The snake queen's wicked smile grew even more intense.

Joz and Vista felt their faces flush with embarrassment.

"Enough with the nonsense! We won't let you suffer a loss. One female warrior for one of our brothers!"

Bista shouted, his face grim.

At that moment, he also vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"Hahahaha...you want your brothers, is that it?"

"Here you go!"

As she spoke, Boa Hancock grabbed a stone statue with one hand and threw it forcefully into the sky in the direction of Jozu and the others!

"You woman!"

Joz, enraged, chased after the stone statue that had been thrown behind him.

"Catch it gently, Joz!"

Marco shouted.

It would be impossible for him to catch the thrown statue from his position.

Vista's elegant face was now contorted with rage.

The knife in his hand trembled, the blade already pressed against the neck of the female warrior in his arms, the sharp edge drawing a thin line of blood from her neck!

"Bista!"

Marco's face darkened, and he suddenly shouted.

Upon hearing this, Vista was immediately taken aback, but then slowly calmed down and ultimately did not kill him.

They had an agreement with Loya that they could only fake the fight and could not kill any of the Nine-Snake Warriors!

The current development of events is truly giving them a headache and making them extremely annoyed.

After a while.

Joz returned, carrying some pebbles and with tears in his eyes.

The stone statue was too fragile; even though he caught it with gentle force, it shattered instantly!

Marco clenched his fists, his eyes darkening.

Vista's lips twitched, and his eyebrows twitched wildly.

"Your name is Yue (Moon), isn't it?"

Suddenly, the Empress pointed at the female warrior being held hostage by Vista, her face cold yet concealing a hint of sorrow.

"Yes, Lady Snake Princess~"

"You actually remember my name!"

The young female warrior, upon hearing the Snake Princess call her name, her face, which had initially shown a hint of fear, flushed with happiness and excitement.

"it is good!"

With a flick of her sleeve, the Snake Princess drew a pink heart-shaped balloon, mimicking the motion of drawing a bow!

He looked at the female warrior named Yue with a dignified expression and asked:

"Then are you willing to die for me?"

Upon hearing this, Vista, Joz, and Marco were immediately shocked.

"I am willing! I am willing to die for you, Lady Snake!"

Tears streamed down Yue's face, but she looked at Snake Princess with a happy expression and shouted.

Marco and his two companions were utterly dumbfounded upon hearing this.

"very good!"

The Snake Princess closed her eyes slightly and released the "bowstring" with her right hand!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~

Dozens, even hundreds, of pink arrows rained down on the female warrior Yue and Vista, who was holding her hostage!

"Vesta, get out of the way!!"

Marco roared at the stunned Vista.

"what!"

Bista suddenly realized what was happening!

He quickly released the female warrior, retreated rapidly, and swung his two swords, coating the blades with Armament Haki, unleashing a barrage of slashes.

Smash the incoming pink arrows one by one!

When the rain of arrows stopped.

The moon has turned into a stone statue, still retaining the image of her crying but happy shouting!

"This woman can even turn her back on her own people... How ruthless!"

Joz muttered, dumbfounded.

"No!" Marco flew to Jozu's side. "The Empress can definitely undo the petrification, so as long as the statue isn't damaged, this female warrior named Yue will come back to life!"

"Oh, yes, yes!"

Joz found this very reasonable and thought to himself, "This empress is truly cunning!"

"Really?"

however!

But the Empress tossed her long hair, her face returning to its usual calm and aloof expression!

She glanced at Marco and his companion with a disdainful look, then extended a finger and touched her alluring lips.

A heart-shaped bubble, the size of a bean ball, appears on your fingertip.

"Yue said she's willing to die for me!"

As soon as the Snake Princess finished speaking, she sent a heart-shaped bubble from her fingertip toward the moon statue!

Biu~

*Thud! Splash!*
