"Come on, take a few steps and get used to it." Norton, who was harboring a mischievous thought, pointed to the side.

Hancock nodded, trembling, bit her lip, turned around, and began to walk slowly.

This is terrible...

no more...

This is absolutely terrible...

With every step she took, Hancock could feel Luffy rubbing against her thigh, which was absolutely devastating for a single woman of her late thirties like her…

“Honey, aren’t you being too mean…” Bonnie couldn’t stand it anymore and whispered in Norton’s ear.

Nojiko's pretty face was also flushed with laughter. She walked over to Norton and pinched his arm.

Nojiko looked at the way Hancock was walking now, and it reminded her of the first time she gave herself to Norton. It was both funny and embarrassing.

"Luffy...come down quickly..." After walking around, Hancock's delicate body went limp, and she hurriedly called out.

"it is good!"

Luffy responded and quickly let go of the grip, climbing out.

At this moment, Luffy's forehead was covered in sweat, it was hard to tell whether it was from the stuffiness inside or...

In the New World, within the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates, Whitebeard and his crew are holding a banquet on a small island.

"Huh? Aren't I here? When did I get dragged into the city?" Ace looked at the newspaper with a bewildered expression.

The photo in the newspaper was indeed of himself being imprisoned in Impel Down.

In the photo, he is locked in a cell and flashes a nonchalant smile at the camera.

"Ace, what happened?" Whitebeard looked over upon hearing this.

"Dad, look at this!" Ace ran over with the newspaper and showed it to him.

"Huh?" Whitebeard glanced at the newspaper, then at Ace, then at the newspaper again, before grabbing Ace's head and demanding, "Tell me, what kind of monster are you?"

"Uh..." Ace's face darkened, and he said dejectedly, "Hey... Dad, were you watching some short dramas about the Kingdom of Oicot a while ago, and got a little obsessed with them..."

"Gurarara..." The white-bearded man laughed and released his grip, saying, "This matter must be related to that little Norton, right? Didn't you say he was the one who rescued you?"

“Yes, Norton rescued me himself.” Ace nodded in agreement. “His Devil Fruit ability is the Paper-Paper Fruit… Oh, right! I remember he can use his Devil Fruit ability to create lifelike dummy clones! That means…”

“The one in Impel Down was a fake clone! So they must have had ulterior motives for doing this…” Whitebeard narrowed his eyes and said, “What is he trying to do?”

Marco chimed in with his analysis: "Could it be related to Blackbeard? This whole thing is part of Blackbeard's grand scheme, and Norton is going along with it. Is he trying to capitalize on the situation and catch Blackbeard off guard?"

Whitebeard nodded: "Perhaps that's the case, but... once this news is released, will the Navy really carry it out?"

Chapter 260 A Series of Twists and Turns

puff……

Izang couldn't help but laugh, "What are they going to do? Execute a dummy? It's hilarious just thinking about it."

"So Ace... you should stay on the ship and not go anywhere for the time being, so as not to ruin that little brat Norton's plans!" Marco walked over, put his arm around Ace's shoulder, and said, "Come on, let's forget about this and go drink! The wine of the Kingdom of Oicot is truly something you can never get tired of!"

At the request of Garp and Rayleigh, the wedding was kept very low-key.

Those who came to attend the wedding were only internal personnel of the Kingdom of Oycot, and there was no public announcement.

As evening approached, Norton went to the observatory on the back hill to take a look.

That's right, it's the Star Observatory.

Norton's idea was that since no one wanted a grand wedding, they should have a unique one.

The wedding was held on an observatory, which was quite unique.

It also fits the current age and strength of Garp, Granny Tsuru, Rayleigh, and Shakky, all of whom have reached the pinnacle of their abilities.

At this pinnacle of life, holding a wedding atop a mountain is quite fitting, isn't it?

At this moment, the observatory was surrounded by blooming flowers.

In the center of the observatory, three circular wedding stages were set up, each with a heart-shaped backdrop behind it.

In the center are the names of Norton and Nojiko, and on the left and right are Garp and Tsuru, and Rayleigh and Shakky, respectively.

The film and television department, which was responsible for setting up the wedding venue, even took a photo of everyone and posted it on the backdrop.

Below, on either side of where Norton was standing, were rows of seats.

Those who come to witness the ceremony will all sit here.

"Hmm, not bad, not bad, I'm very satisfied." Norton nodded in satisfaction and waved to the person in charge in front of him.

That person was Fielding Sani, the head of the Film and Television Department of the Kingdom of Oicot and Shirley's direct superior.

This is a very intelligent middle-aged woman, and her appearance... well, she's not bad looking.

Most importantly, she has a sharp mind. She was able to sit in the position of minister, mostly because she was responsible for producing a lot of interesting short videos and variety shows.

"Thank you for your affirmation, Your Majesty." Sani smiled and bowed, her face appearing calm, but her heart was already racing with excitement at receiving the king's approval.

"That's fine then, very good. Tomorrow is the official wedding, make sure your people are all ready." Norton patted Sani on the shoulder, giving her the greatest encouragement.

“Yes!” Sani perked up and nodded quickly.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Norton asked Bonnie, who was admiring the flowers nearby.

Bonnie shrugged and said, "Me? What opinion can I have? Your queen is marrying you tomorrow, yet she's still running around for you. I feel like I, the queen, have nothing to do."

Norton walked over, put his arm around Bonnie's slender waist, and laughed, "How could that be? We'll still need you for tomorrow's wedding, won't we? We'll also need you to give Riley and Shakky an unforgettable impression."

"Okay..." Bonnie blushed and giggled as she escaped Norton's embrace.

“Mickey, how’s the situation?” Norton walked up to a pair of binoculars, picked up the walkie-talkie, and called out.

Mickey replied, "Everything is going smoothly so far. We've contacted several countries on the application form, and they've all agreed to join the Freedom Alliance. Now it's the last country; once we've finished our talks, we can go back."

Norton breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Very good. If anything unexpected happens again, remember to notify me immediately."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Miki replied and then fell silent.

As Miki said, they are currently waiting for a meeting with the last king of the country.

The king of the Kingdom of Lilusoho was a large, fat man who was fifty years old.

He was currently dressing in formal attire, intending to greet the delegation from the Freedom Alliance in the most dignified manner.

He had heard from the previous countries that the person in charge of diplomatic alliances this time was Princess Oycot.

As a princess from a superior nation, how could he not take her seriously during negotiations?

Not long after, the fat man, dressed in a magnificent royal robe, strode into the hall with heavy steps.

"I'm sorry to have kept the two princesses waiting. I am King Hope IV of the Kingdom of Lilusoho. Please have a seat!" After introducing himself, Hope invited the three women to sit at the negotiating table.

"Kill them!"

But at that moment, shouts of battle suddenly rang out outside the palace.

"Your Majesty Hope, what's going on?" Nojiko frowned and turned to look out the window.

"Ah... well..." Hopes stood up awkwardly and said, "Please excuse the commotion... the people causing trouble outside are probably protesters against Rilusoho joining the Freedom Alliance. I'll go and have someone deal with it right away!"

With that, Hopes turned and walked out hastily, roaring angrily, "What are you doing? Don't you know I'm entertaining guests? Go, get these people out of here!"

"Yes!"

Hearing a response from outside, Hopes walked back with a smile and sat down opposite the three women.

"I'm truly sorry! I've actually been looking forward to joining the Freedom Alliance for a long time, but the opportunity has never presented itself! Now that this opportunity is before me, then I..."

boom--

"Charge in! We absolutely cannot allow this irrational king to agree to join the Freedom Alliance!"

"Fight for Rilusoho!"

"Joining the Freedom Alliance was the biggest mistake!"

Halfway through his sentence, a violent crashing sound and shouts of killing erupted simultaneously, and Hopes' face turned pale instantly.

This has really been quite a rollercoaster ride!

His palace guards were unable to stop these rebellious people.

What does this indicate?

This shows that he, the king, was isolated!

"Krunn, you bastard! Do you have to destroy Rilusoho before you're satisfied?" With a quick thought, Hopes guessed who was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

His brother, Kruun, is a complete sycophant of the World Government.

Now that he wants to betray the World Government and join the more promising Freedom Alliance, Kruun will definitely disagree.

Just a few days ago, the two of them had argued about this issue.

The diplomatic corps just arrived here today, and things have already gotten out of hand. Who else could it be but Krugman?

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall, thin man walked in.

"Brother King, since you've guessed it was me, then heed my advice: don't join the Freedom Alliance! As long as you don't join the Freedom Alliance, you'll remain the King of Lilusoho. Otherwise..."

After finishing speaking, Krun stepped to the side, pointed to the angry crowd behind him, and continued, "Otherwise, they might not agree."

Chapter 261: Welcome to the team!

"I have a question I hope you can answer," Eileen asked before Hopes could speak. "Is your behavior a personal conspiracy, or is the World Government behind it?"

"Of course it was my personal action!" Krun gave this answer without even thinking.

"Do you think I believe that?" Nojiko retorted. "Without the support of the World Government, how could you have so many ordinary people supporting you? Everyone knows about the World Government's despicable behavior! Don't you think what you're saying is a bit too far from the truth?"

"So what?" Kruun's face darkened. "What do you want with the support of the World Government?"

Miki crossed her arms and sneered, "What do we want? If it's at the behest of the World Government, I advise you to check with them again to see if they can withstand retaliation from the Freedom Alliance."

Krun narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself, "Could something have happened at the World Government before this? Otherwise, why would these three women have such calm, detached expressions?"
