Raise your glass and ignite the world of One Piece

It will take a long time for the frozen sea surface to return to normal.

The four giant sea kings were still floating on the sea as if they were dead.

When Wayne saw Hancock again, members of the Nine Snakes Pirates were carrying supplies to the Perfume Cola.

"This island is not very far from Nine Snakes Island, but its output is very rich."

The stunning Hancock and the handsome Wayne stroll along the shore alone.

Wayne is a head taller than Hancock, so compared with Hancock, he won't be too out of the ordinary.

"So I will take ships to this and other islands from time to time to replenish the meat, herbs and other supplies needed by the country."

This does not look like a meeting between the leaders of two forces, but rather like two young people falling in love.

This made William, Karl, Sandasonia, and Marigold who were watching from a distance couldn't help but think about it.

Speaking of which, Hancock is only 23 years old now, and Wayne is only three years older than her.

But Wayne's mental age is much longer than 26.

Although he was amazed by Hancock, it was not to the point where he couldn't help himself.

It’s not just because of strong strength and great resistance to temptation.

It's also because after setting "enjoying the world" as his goal, the worldly temptations of "wine, sex, wealth" have become very indifferent to him.

This is also the case for most top powerhouses.

They need these things, often simply as carriers of emotions and as means to achieve goals.

"Oh? I thought you were just relying on looting to replenish supplies."

Wayne didn't have much information about the Shichibukai, because strictly speaking, the Shichibukai and the Navy Headquarters were on the same level.

They are institutions under the same World Government.

"I lead the pirate group to go out to sea to plunder, just to replenish supplies that cannot be self-sufficient."

Although Hancock tried hard to maintain a cold and arrogant look, he could never become cold.

So she simply kept her tone normal.

The reason why I chose to meet Wayne at the beach was because it was still covered in ice.

Although the cold sea breeze is nothing to a strong person like her, it can help her stay calm.

"As for the other things, since I grabbed them, of course they belong to me.

"Amazon Lily is a country. How can it be maintained by relying solely on the unstable method of robbery?"

Having said this, Hancock raised his left hand and ruffled his long, beautiful hair, seemingly unintentionally saying:

"But President Wayne used to be a 'just' navy. I'm afraid he doesn't agree with this way of life in my country, right?"

"The 'just' navy?"

Wayne looked at the boundless sea and was silent for a moment before shaking his head with a wry smile:

"'Justice' will change according to one's own position and the environment."

"Oh?"

It seemed that this was the first time Hancock had heard this theory, which made her even more curious about this "Dragon Slayer" who dared to kill the Celestial Dragons in public.

She suddenly realized that her good impression of him came from his deeds of killing the Celestial Dragon.

And the reason for communicating with him on an equal footing is because I have seen with my own eyes that he is at least a strong person on the same level as myself.

But what kind of person is he?

"That's why you killed the Tianlong people brazenly? What did you think at the time?"

Naturally, it is impossible to ask the person directly for more details about what is written in the newspaper.

"Are you... attracted to that mermaid? Or is it because they mentioned Shichibukai Jinbei?"

There was an inexplicable light in Hancock's black pearl-like eyes.

"Mermaid? Jinbe?"

Wayne smiled and waved his hands repeatedly:

"My brain hasn't reached that level yet, it's just that I killed a fishman two years ago, and he was an acquaintance of Jinbei, even though we had a falling out.

"But that happened for a reason. Although Jinbei was sad, he didn't embarrass me because of the positions of both parties at the time.

"This time... well, it can be considered an inducement."

Wayne noticed that Hancock's expression became complicated and coughed lightly:

"The main reason is that I performed escort missions in Mariejoia during the World Conference."

Hancock's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately forced himself to calm down, but Wayne didn't look at her at all.

His voice dropped, as if he didn't notice Hancock's abnormality at all:

"Your Highness Hancock, as a Shichibukai, you should also have the opportunity to go to Mariejoia.

"But I don't think there are many people who would go all out in Mariejoia, right?"

"This……"

Hancock put his hand on his chest and finally suppressed his beating heart.

She forced a smile, her voice so low that even she could barely hear it.

"I...have never been to Marigioa, so the Shichibukai don't need to pay attention to the overwhelming majority of calls from the government."

His face became slightly normal, and Hancock's voice also worked hard to return to normal:

"But it's true as you said, it may be possible to take the initiative to release the knowledge in Mariejoia, but it doesn't seem necessary to go all out."

"That's what I did."

Wayne's smile turned cold:

"And unfortunately, my ability to see and hear is quite special, and I can sense the target's emotions to a certain extent."

Hancock's expression changed again.

Sure enough, she immediately heard Wayne's voice, like the blowing sea breeze, cold and biting:

"It's too horrible to look at. It's really too horrible to look at..."

Wayne raised his hand and pressed his forehead, seeming to recall the tragic scenes that made his breath stop in his mind.

"About eight years ago, Fisher Tiger burned Mary Joya and freed many of the slaves.

"I was just a lieutenant at that time, and I heard about this event that shocked the world.

"Later, after my position was promoted, I studied the files on that incident——

"Hundreds of slaves were freed in that incident."

Hancock's face began to turn pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

But fortunately, Wayne seemed to be immersed in his own emotions and "didn't notice".

"But Your Highness Hancock, during the World Conference, I followed General 'Qing Pheasant' Kuzan to almost all of Pangu City and the Tianlong people's residential area.

"From what I've seen, the number of slaves of various races controlled by the Celestial Dragons is not just thousands, but literally tens of thousands!"

"what!"

Hancock opened his beautiful eyes in disbelief.

"You know what, Hancock."

Wayne closed his eyes, and the honorific "Your Highness" was no longer included in his address:

"When thousands of 'voices' that were extremely painful, worse than death, numb and hopeless, even like walking zombies, with almost no emotional fluctuations, poured into my mind..."

His voice was as calm as water, but Hancock felt the boundless anger underneath it:

"As a 'just navy', I almost spent the most perseverance in my life to complete the escort mission.

"But in the Shampoo Islands, that bullshit Tianlong actually revealed that among those 'voices', there were also my former colleagues!"

Wayne slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with red bloodshot eyes. The suppressed aura around him made Hancock, who possessed the domineering aura of a king, couldn't help but take two steps back!

"Yes, this is the garbage I once served as the 'Justice Marine', the Celestial Dragons."

The aura around him gradually calmed down, and his eyes gradually returned to their usual gentleness and clarity.

"So, I'm just clearing out a piece of trash."

Wayne slowly turned his head, looked at Hancock who looked shocked and incomprehensible, and smiled slightly:

"I was thinking how beautiful the world would be if there was no such garbage at all."
