"Kuja Pirates?" Luo Chen was surprised.
Wasn't this the pirate crew of the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock? What a coincidence to run into them.
Robin's brow furrowed slightly. "What should we do? Should we go out? I saw the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock, on the ship."
The Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock.
One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, specially appointed by the World Government.
Her strength was extremely formidable.
She was also hailed by the world as the most beautiful woman.
Before Luo Chen could reply, the stomach of the Sea King rapidly turned to stone.
One could imagine that if the stomach inside had turned to stone, the entire body on the outside must have been completely petrified.
The next moment, the petrified stomach, along with the petrified flesh outside, disintegrated into countless pieces of rubble.
Warm sunlight shone on the wooden defensive barrier.
Luo Chen, looking through a hole in the wooden barrier, found that they were falling toward the sea.
It seemed this Sea King had launched its attack by charging out of the ocean. After being petrified and shattered by the Pirate Empress, it had disintegrated directly in mid-air.
He dispersed the wooden defensive sphere, and a Wood Dragon formed beneath his feet, weaving through and dodging the falling stone fragments of the Sea King's corpse.
Luo Chen's gaze shifted downward.
A giant red and black pirate ship floated quietly on the sea's surface.
The sail was painted with the Kuja's pirate mark and characters.
At the bow of the ship were two enormous sea serpents.
A glance at the deck revealed dozens of female pirates.
The woman at the very front was also looking up at him and Robin.
On the back of the Wood Dragon, Robin's eyes narrowed slightly. "It really is the Warlord, Boa Hancock."
Luo Chen's gaze met the woman's at the front of the ship.
She had long, jet-black hair in a hime cut.
Her forehead was smooth and clear, her willow-like eyebrows long and slender.
Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes had deep blue pupils that revealed a hint of indifference.
Her nose was small and straight, and her soft lips were without a single wrinkle.
Her entire face was flawless, so beautiful that it seemed the sea had stilled for a moment for her, and the sea breeze had slowed its pace for fear of disturbing her.
"Who are you?" Boa Hancock's cold, clear voice sounded.
She tilted her head back slightly, and the fluffy fur at the edge of her white mink shawl stirred.
Luo Chen's gaze couldn't help but slowly move down, landing on Boa Hancock's perfect figure.
She wore a daringly cut scarlet cheongsam, as dazzlingly beautiful as a burning flame. The slit of the skirt went high up her thigh, and her skin was so fair in the sunlight that it was almost transparent.
"Insolence! Her Ladyship is asking you a question! Answer at once!"
Beside Boa Hancock, on her left and right, were two tall women with long green and orange hair, respectively.
At this moment, the stout woman with long orange hair shouted, her eyes full of hostility.
The other dozens of female pirates also looked unfriendly.
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow.
Boa Hancock's beauty was effective not only on men; women also found it hard to resist.
Being both beautiful and powerful had given Boa Hancock a reputation as high as a deity's within her pirate crew and on Kuja Island.
Robin whispered in his ear, "I heard that the Pirate Empress detests men. Any man who sees her is turned to stone and then sinks into the sea."
Luo Chen nodded and said in a loud voice, "We were just unfortunately swallowed by a Sea King and ended up here. We have no hostile intentions."
He looked around. It was an endless expanse of blue sea. He didn't know how far they were from Alabasta. Fortunately, he had Carina's Vivre Card, so it wouldn't be hard to find Luffy and the others.
"And yet, I feel that you two were hiding inside the Sea King to launch an ambush on the Kuja Pirates," Boa Hancock's voice was cold.
Luo Chen frowned. "It really was an accident."
"But the lecherous look in your eyes just now was very displeasing to me," Boa Hancock's beautiful face was like a mask of frost.
Luo Chen was speechless.
He had only glanced at her.
He hadn't had any lewd thoughts.
Luo Chen didn't know what to say to Hancock's words. He shook his head and steered the Wood Dragon to leave.
He just wanted to find Nami now, so she wouldn't worry.
"Pistol Kiss!"
The sound of something cutting through the air came from behind.
His Observation Haki also sent out a warning.
Luo Chen whipped his head around, his arm coated in pitch-black armament, and shattered the pink, heart-shaped arrow flying toward his face.
He narrowed his eyes. "What's the meaning of this?"
Hancock and her crew were clearly a little surprised.
None of them had expected Luo Chen to be able to block "Pistol Kiss."
Boa Hancock was silent and cold. She brought her hands together in front of her chest in the shape of a heart.
"Mero Mero Mellow."
A light-pink, heart-shaped beam of light shot out from between her fingers.
Luo Chen's black eyes flickered. Anyone who was attracted by the Empress's beauty would be petrified by this move.
Introductory Armament Haki probably couldn't grant immunity to the Love-Love Fruit's ability. What's more, with Robin by his side, he had to dodge it.
In terms of instantaneous movement speed, the Wood Dragon was far inferior to Shave and the Flying Thunder God.
But at this moment, it was too late to throw out a marked item for the Flying Thunder God.
Luo Chen put an arm around Robin's soft waist and activated Shave with his feet.
The two of them instantly vanished from the back of the Wood Dragon, appearing in the air ten meters away.
Seeing this, Boa Hancock snorted coldly. "You have some skill."
She turned slightly and once again unleashed Mero Mero Mellow.
At this time, Luo Chen shot a large number of wooden spikes at the deck of the Kuja ship.
A Flying Thunder God mark was instantly placed on each one.
A second before the pink, heart-shaped beam hit, the figures of Luo Chen and Robin vanished from mid-air.
On the ship's deck, the burly women with orange and green hair, as well as dozens of Kuja crew members, were blocking the wooden spikes.
Suddenly, the figures of Luo Chen and Robin appeared like ghosts.
They were right next to the burly woman with orange hair, very close to Hancock.
Luo Chen met the orange-haired woman's astonished gaze and kicked out.
With a bang, the woman's large body was sent flying, crashing into the wall of the Perfume Yuda.
"Marigold!" the burly woman with green hair cried out, then flew into a rage, transforming into a large green python and sweeping her tail.
Luo Chen, with Robin in his arms, vanished again.
He appeared beside the green-haired woman, pointed a finger in the air, and a large number of wooden vines shot out from the deck, binding the giant python's body tightly. No matter how the green-haired woman struggled, she couldn't break free.
"Lady Sandersonia!" the female crew members of the Kuja Pirates cried out.
Some of them gripped their spears, others drew their bows, aiming at Luo Chen but not daring to act rashly.
This mysterious man's strength was terrifying.
In the blink of an eye, he had subdued both Lady Marigold and Lady Sandersonia.
Boa Hancock now turned to stare at Luo Chen and said in a cold voice, "Release Sandersonia."
Luo Chen's eyes were playful. "Beg me, and I'll let her go."
Boa Hancock was used to being domineering. She believed that everyone, regardless of age or gender, would be captivated by her beauty and would do her bidding.
And that was indeed the case. Ninety-nine percent of people could not resist her beauty.
But Luo Chen was different.
He had trained with the woman in the leather suit in the [Taijutsu Training Space] for a long time and had already developed a strong resistance to beauty.
The leather-clad woman's beauty was also exceptional, no less than Boa Hancock's.
Having seen her so many times, Luo Chen was confident he could resist Hancock's petrification, but he hadn't tried it just to be safe.
Boa Hancock's arrogant and unreasonable way of doing things had annoyed Luo Chen somewhat, and he decided to teach her a lesson.
