Chapter 174

In fact, recruiting the Silver Ax was certainly a very tempting proposition. I can't even imagine how tremendous power this old man has. He may even be on Yonko's level. It would be nice to have him on the teams ... Of course, he is a bit of a muddy type, but he brought me a poneglyph. And he doesn't really insist on joining the team. Well, I'm not such a distrustful person who will shake on various nonsense. If he wants to join the team, then I could accept him.

Although, maybe this is part of his villainous plan. Still, his fruit is very unusual, who knows about its real features ... Besides, it is also impossible to check his words, at least not yet. Well, even if so, then I will think about it ... It would be foolish to refuse such an ally. Besides, he knows quite a lot, so he will definitely be useful. For the first time I hear about the same Ima. Not that I directly believed his story, but it seemed very believable, so I decided to put my trust in him.

- Okay, I believe you. I really hope it's not in vain ... You can collect your things, now you are part of the Blood Star team.

- Ha, well, that's good ... I'm glad you changed your mind. Pirate life, how long have I felt this ... - laughing, Yong stroked his ax: - Yes, and I finally want to finish this whole story that the past owners of my fruit were hatching. Believe me, remembering every moment of your own life is still that shit ... If this ideal world exists, then why not take part in its creation. Maybe I'll finally get the brains of a normal old man and get sclerosis, hehehehe.

Smiling at the old man, I nodded.

- Okay, then, I'll take the poneglyph ...

- Dare ...

Stretching out my hand, I quickly covered the huge red stone with the power of darkness and sucked it in. The grass pressed to the ground was finally released ...

Turning to the old man, I finally decided to ask one more thing:

- Boa Hancock ... Do you happen to know what my dear Pirate Empress forgot here?

- NS? Did you notice? Frankly, I was not eager to accompany this arrogant girl ... But when they talked about you, she seemed to be replaced. Heh, well, although I have lived half my life alone, I have not forgotten how to understand things. So I decided to bring the girl to her dear lover.

Yet this story was too unusual. How could they even just meet? Amazon Lily is not in this part of the Grand Line at all. These two couldn't just pick up and collide ... Besides, this world is so huge, are there any such coincidences with anyone other than Luffy?

Slightly squinting, I asked the old man:

- Something suspicious is ... How did you meet in general?

- Hey, captain, don't think, we really met by chance. This girl was looking for you, and I just docked on Siniar, well, there we crossed ... She wanted to kick me, but ...

- What, but?

Yeon scratched the back of his head and smiled.

- Well, I'm a pretty tough guy. So she hurt her leg ...

- Ha! Seriously? - I laughed: - Damn, I would like to see this ...

- Well, yes, nothing funny, these angry women almost knocked me down. But this girl suddenly stopped them and mentioned you. Of course, I decided to put my word in. Well, then we went here together. I roughly understood your route when I used the fruit, so we arrived a day ago.

Sighing, I turned around:

- I see ... That's just what I have to talk to her about now. I didn't even think that we would meet until the time when I did not find One Piece.

With a shrug, Yeon jumped into the air.

- Here I am not your advisor, the captain. I suppose not every girl will follow her lover. Especially the Pirate Empress ... '' With a wave of his hand, Yeon turned around and said,

“Then I’ll go and meet with Sargon, since we’re on the same team now.”

When the Silver Ax disappeared, I sighed and sat down on the ground ...

Yes, and how should I be? On the one hand, I have to take responsibility, and on the other ... Ahem, well, yes, I haven't done that before. Hmm, well, I don't have much choice ... Besides, in the past world I did not start a relationship, and this is not due to a lack of conscience, but rather for simple reasons. I was weak and not very rich, and I was busy with important business and I had no time for women.

Now, I am quite capable of protecting those who are dear to me. And Hancock is a great girl, how would I not want to be with her? I just feel a little out of place ... Still, after her I had a lot of women, and now I almost settled down and got regular partners. Of course, we weren't in a relationship, so it's hard to call it cheating ...

Sighing, I got up and frowned at the sky:

- Still three girls, right? Not bad ... Though a little weird ... How would she even take that? Robin and Nami didn't seem to mind. But, Hancock is quite bossy with others ... She will be gentle with me, who knows how things will turn out when they meet my new girls. I would like them all ...

- Ay, to hell ... Be as it is, - with a wave of my hand, I instantly moved to the lower islands.

Having spread the will of observation, I quickly began to look for her ... Since she came, then how can I keep her waiting. Even if she gets angry, I have to accept it. It's my fault ...

Although I often thought about her, I never came. Thinking about it now, I felt strange. On the one hand, I just wanted to swim peacefully and go around the world to meet her again. But, on the other hand, I seemed to run away ... Which, of course, was peculiar to me.

After a minute of searching, I nevertheless got close to the familiar aura ... Feeling it with my will, I involuntarily smiled. She became noticeably stronger, her royal will definitely stood out ...

"Okay ... it's time for us to meet Hancock" - smiling, I immediately moved to a distant island. It was in this place that the Amazon team stopped ...

I already felt her aura very closely, even with my eyes closed I could calmly distinguish her from many others. With a little grin, I flew into the air and slowly walked towards her room ...

Hancock stopped at a rather curious place. It was a whole palace with several pavilions. Apparently, the Amazons have taken over this place. Pirates, what to take from them ... Where else should the Empress live in a palace? Although, she was still alone in her room, and the old woman Nyon seemed to have decided not to swim with her. Of course, her sisters were there as always, guarding her chambers ...
