"Since you are full, you can always chat with me now, otherwise it would be quite boring to be alone.
In fact, I have thought from just now that you three look quite familiar, what are your names, and how were you caught?"
Hancock still turned a deaf ear to Wood's inquiry. Although the other party did provide them with food, it could not change the fact that the other party was working for the Draco people.
However, Hancock did not answer Wood's question, which does not mean that Mary and Sonia did the same.
Hancock is more mature mentally, after all, she is now twelve years old, but Mary and Sonia are still children.
In their opinion, Wood gave them delicious food, which was completely different from the bad guys at my auction. Moreover, Wood looked sunny and kind, and did not look like a bad guy, so they answered Wood's questions involuntarily.
.
"Brother, we were trafficked from the Nine Snakes Pirates to the Shampoo Islands.
My name is Mary, my sisters are called Sonia and Hancock, can you let us go?
When we return to the Amazon Lily Kingdom, we will repay you in the future..."
"Mary, he is in the same group with those bad guys. If he doesn't give you any food, you will think of him as a good person!"
Mary had just finished speaking half of what she said when Hancock beside her had already yelled.
The three sisters were abducted because they trusted others too easily. This also caused Hancock to have a great sense of distrust towards everyone around him.
However, what Hancock didn't notice was that when he heard Mary announcing the names of himself and others, Wood froze on the spot.
Forget about Mary and Sonia, but the name Hancock is quite famous to those who have watched One Piece!
The Pirate Empress Boya Hancock is known as the most beautiful woman in the world, a superhuman and sweet fruit user, and one of the future kings of the Shichibukai. She must be a person with strength and beauty.
No wonder Wood just felt familiar with a few people, he was meeting a big shot!
According to the timeline, Hancock and the others were indeed brought to the Holy Land Mary Joa at this point in time.
Afterwards, they were tortured at the hands of the Draco for several years, until the fish-man hero Fisher Tiger climbed up to the holy land of Mariejoia with his bare hands. Finally, after liberating the slaves, the three were able to escape from Mariejoia and return to the chaos.
To the Amazon Lily Kingdom.
Hancock, who is now twelve years old, is not as gorgeous as the "world's most beautiful woman" in the future, but his face can already be seen as a complete beauty.
As for Mary and Sonia, although they are not as good-looking as Hancock, they are still good-looking. Wood really doesn't understand why they have become like that after twenty years...
Although the Devil Fruit caused changes in appearance to a certain extent, the appearance of Mary and Sonia twenty years later was even beyond the scope of normal humans.
After learning that the three sisters in front of him were the three empress sisters of the Amazon Lily Kingdom in the future, Wood originally wanted to take the opportunity to increase his favorability.
However, before he could say anything, the ketch they were riding on suddenly began to shake violently!
There is no wind or waves on the sea now, and the weather is quite normal. Unless it hits a reef in the sea or encounters other conditions, such a phenomenon is unlikely to occur.
Gion's navigation course at the naval school received perfect marks, and with the guidance of the charts, it was impossible to make the mistake of sailing the ship into a reef area.
In other words, the only thing that caused the ship to shake violently was external factors.
"Wood, the bottom of our boat was attacked. They should have come for the captured mermaid.
If the bottom of the boat is punctured, everyone else will definitely die here, let alone the two of us."
There were no other ships around and he could dig into the bottom of the ship. Even if Gion didn't say it clearly, Wood could probably guess that the other party was a fishman.
Fishmen and mermaids are both races that live on Fishman Island. Fishmen have fish faces and human bodies, so most of them are ugly and are rejected by humans.
Mermaids, on the other hand, have human bodies and fish tails, and are generally very good-looking, so they are usually kept as pets by the rich in this world.
Mermaids have the fastest swimming speed in the world, and although the fishmen are not as fast as the mermaids with fish tails in terms of swimming speed, they have good combat capabilities.
The most common method used by murlocs to attack human ships is to drill through the bottom of the opponent's ship and make the opponent fall into the sea.
Because once they enter the sea, they murlocs are invincible!
Murlocs have always believed that humans are an inferior race because they cannot breathe in the sea, but they are different. They can move freely whether on land or in water.
From a biological perspective, the degree of evolution of fish-men is indeed higher than that of humans.
After all, they are amphibious and have intelligence equivalent to that of humans. Just being able to breathe in water is enough to prove that murlocs are indeed more adaptable to the environment of this world.
Now Wood's ship has left the Shampoo Islands not long ago. Even if the ship is scuttled, with the strength of Wood and Gion, there is still no problem in returning to the island using the "Moonstep".
But as for the other people on the ship, not to mention their own strength, their hands and feet were tied with iron chains, and they were locked in a large iron cage.
Once the ship sinks, except for the mermaid who can breathe in the sea, everyone else will basically die!
And this is probably the original purpose of the murlocs in the sea. They would choose to take action now because even the murlocs do not have the physical strength to cross the sea.
In addition, except for the mermaids on the boat, other slaves or people responsible for escorting them, in the eyes of these fishmen, do not belong to their kind. If they die, they will die, and no one will come back to sympathize.
Feeling the constant shaking of the ship, Gion immediately took off his clothes without thinking, put on a bikini that made Wood feast his eyes, and planned to jump into the sea.
Fighting fishmen in the sea is undoubtedly an extremely unwise act, but for the current situation, Gion really has no better solution.
"Let me get off. You are responsible for protecting the people on the ship."
Looking at Gion who was about to jump into the sea, Wood took off his shirt first and jumped from the boat into the sea before Gion could say anything.
The visibility of humans in the sea is very low, and the fish-men are extremely fast in the water. Wood, who has already understood the Haki of Wisdom and Knowledge, and has mastered it to a certain extent, is indeed more suitable to fight the fish-men in the water than in Gion.
