Pirates: Building a Pirate Family

However, Hancook just waved his hand casually, not seeming to take Luffy's gratitude to heart.

Immediately afterwards, she frowned slightly and said with a serious expression: "This time the Navy summoned our King's Seven Martial Arts to fight against the Whitebeard Pirates. I guess, the Whitebeard Pirates will probably not escape the misfortune this time. Now! After all, what they have to face is the extremely powerful Navy headquarters."

When he said this, Han Cook's eyes slowly moved towards Xia Qi.

At this time, Xia Qi also lightly pointed her head and expressed her agreement: "That's true. With the current strength of the Whitebeard Pirates, it is not easy to shake the indestructible Navy headquarters!"

As she said that, she couldn't help but turn her eyes to Luffy again.

She felt helpless about Luffy's almost stubborn persistence and determination.

I saw the graceful and charming empress Boya Hancock lightly opened her red lips and said, "I'll go and make some preparations and set off immediately. The annoying guy outside is still waiting for me." I'm here!"

The abominable guy she mentioned was the lieutenant general, Jackie Cheat, who came to convey the summoning order of the King's Seven War Seas.

After saying that, Hancock stood up gracefully, and her beautiful but indifferent eyes slowly looked at Luffy beside her.

Immediately afterwards, he said to him in an unquestionable tone: "Boy, try to shrink your body to the smallest. I will use my ability to turn you into a stone. After entering the city, I will do my own It will relieve your petrochemical state. As for how to act in the future, it depends on you!”

After talking, Hancock stood quietly, waiting for Luffy to take corresponding actions as she said.

When Luffy heard this, he did not dare to be negligent at all. He immediately bent down and thanked Han Cook, "Thank you, the Empress, for your help!"

After thanking him, he took a deep breath, and suddenly he felt like his whole body was being drained from his strength, and he suddenly let out a big breath of cold air.

At the same time, his rubber body, which was originally full of elasticity and power, quickly became soft at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As time goes by, this change becomes more and more obvious. Luffy's body seems to have lost support and constantly shrinks and squeezes inward.

In the blink of an eye, his originally tall and strong figure began to fold in half like a thin piece of paper.

Luffy gritted his teeth and tried his best to control the expansion and distortion of his muscles, just to fold his rubber body together to the maximum extent.

After a lot of hard work, Luffy finally successfully reduced his huge body into an object that was only the size of a bracelet.

At this time, he seemed to have reached his limit and could no longer continue to compress even in the slightest.

However, even so, Luffy did not give up and continued to maintain this tiny form tightly, waiting for Han Cook's next move.

When Hancock saw the scene in front of her, a trace of determination flashed in her beautiful eyes. She instantly activated her powerful devil fruit ability - Sweet Fruit.

I saw a dazzling wave of love light shot out like lightning, accurately hitting Luffy not far away.

Luffy, who was hit by the wave of love light, had his originally bracelet-sized body actually started to undergo amazing changes at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His skin gradually became as hard as a stone, as if he had lost the vitality of life, and it was completely petrified in a blink of an eye.

In the end, Luffy turned into an exquisite petrified bracelet and lay quietly on the ground.

Hancock walked forward lightly, bent down gracefully, and carefully picked up the petrified bracelet.

Then, she gently put the bracelet on her snow-white wrist and cleverly covered it with her wide sleeves to prevent others from easily discovering this secret.

After doing all this, Hancook turned around and shouted to the members of the Nine Snake Pirates behind him: "Sisters, go with me and meet those hateful navy for a while!"

With her order, many female pirates responded in unison, followed Han Cook and walked out of the mysterious and beautiful Nine Snake Island with great momentum.

Not long after, they arrived outside Jiushe Island.

Standing by the sea and looking around, I saw five huge naval warships docked on the sea in front of me. These warships lie across there like giant steel beasts, looking majestic and arrogant.

Each warship is equipped with a dark cannon, and its muzzles are gloomy towards the direction of Jiushe Island, giving people an invisible pressure and fear.

However, in the face of such a situation, Han Cook's focus is not on these superficial deterrences.

What really made her worried was that today's naval warships were able to ignore the extremely harsh natural environment of the windless belt and achieve free navigation.

You should know that the reason why Jiushe Island has been able to hide in the windless belt and is isolated from the world is largely due to the extremely dangerous environment here.

This unique geographical advantage makes Jiushe Island a paradise that is almost impossible to invade the outside world. It is precisely because of this that the Jiushe Pirates have been able to go through the vicissitudes of time and have been passed down from generation to generation.

Once they encounter fierce attacks from the navy, they can retreat quickly and calmly into the mysterious and dangerous windless belt without any trouble.

The navy that came in a fierce manner could only watch the windless and helpless, and there was nothing we could do.

However, time has changed, and with the rapid development of science and technology with each passing day, shipbuilding technology has made great breakthroughs.

Today's ships have long since escaped from traditional sail power and have the ability to resist powerful sea king attacks.

In this way, the windless belt, which once served as a natural barrier, has lost its indestructible protective effect on Jiushe Island.

This means that Jiushe Island will find it difficult to rest as peaceful as before in the future, and it will be directly exposed to positive threats from the navy and other hostile forces.

Thinking of this, Han Cook deeply felt that decisive measures must be taken to strengthen the defensive power of Nine Snake Island.

After dealing with the matter in front of me, I decided to go to the Rockefeller Kingdom to purchase a large number of advanced weapons and equipment, and take this opportunity to meet Esdes.

Whenever Hancock remembered the name Esdes, his legs became slightly weak, as if all the strength in his body had been pulled away.

Just then, a low voice suddenly rang out: "Boya Hancock!"

It turned out that Lieutenant General Gazing stood in front of her with a serious look on his face.

Han Cook curled his lips disdainfully and said angrily: "Hmph, what an annoying guy, don't talk too much, hurry up and set off!"
