One Piece Thundergod Marine

Chapter 752: Chapter 636 Empress's Anger



After a series of chaotic mission days, Marine Headquarters welcomed a group of individuals who fundamentally altered the atmosphere for all soldiers.

These were the Oka Shichibukai!

"Pirate Empress" Boa Hancock.

"Pillar of State of the Happo Navy" Don Sai.

"Benevolent Hero," "Fujitora" Issho.

"Surgeon of Death" Trafalgar Law.

As the Oka Shichibukai who signed the "Shichibukai Treaty," upon receiving orders from the government, they all arrived punctually at Marine Headquarters, regardless of their personal thoughts, to prepare for the upcoming war.

"I heard you suffered a loss at her hands, Vice Admiral Momonga?" 

Rowen chuckled, glancing at the sullen-faced Vice Admiral Momonga next to him. He teased, "Been single for too long, huh? Getting pent up?"

"…"

Vice Admiral Momonga shot him a glare and turned away, unwilling to speak.

However, as he turned his head, Rowen noticed that the veteran Marine general, who had once been his instructor, had two faint blushes appearing on his otherwise dark face as if he was… shy? 

Fuck!

Σ(д;)!

Rowen stared in shock, unable to believe what he was seeing.

Cool it, Vice Admiral Momonga!

You won't get any good results from this! 

"Eh? Is 'Sea Hero' Jinbe not here yet?" 

Don Sai turned to scan the sparsely populated office, lingering on the remaining four Shichibukai, before turning back to ask.

"Oh, he violated the treaty and refused the government's summons. He has already been sent to Impel Down awaiting trial, so you don't need to worry about him."

Upon hearing this, Rowen raised an eyebrow.

"…"

'I get it, but what's with this casual attitude as if we are discussing drinks and snacks?!' 

Don Sai looked horrified.

That's one of the Shichibukai, Jinbe!

In terms of seniority, he ranked above everyone else present! 

"Hmph! Is that all?" 

Hancock leaned on her multicolored python "Salome," her fair and delicate legs slowly lifting under her high-slit skirt as she sat on the serpent: "I've heard that the government intends to eliminate the Shichibukai system… In just a few months, three Shichibukai have fallen; we cannot feel at ease."

"Are you questioning the government, Boa Hancock?!" Vice Admiral Momonga turned his head to look at her seriously, voice filled with anger: "Don't forget your status!"

"Me? What's wrong with me?" 

"Even if I did something wrong, it would be forgiven, because I… am just too beautiful!" 

With that, Hancock cupped her face with both hands, acting playfully shy.

"You…"

Vice Admiral Momonga's face inexplicably flushed, words stuck in his throat.

He had to admit that the Empress was undoubtedly one of the most beautiful women in the One Piece world; her every expression was enchanting, and there was nothing to critique about her figure or looks.

But her personality had serious issues.

She truly embodied the phrase "beautiful but untouchable."

In the past, it seemed amusing in the comics, but when faced with it in person— and not as Luffy but as a mere bystander— Hancock's personality was simply unbearable.

Fortunately, among the male presence, two men were completely immune to the Empress's charm.

One was "Fujitora" Issho.

The other was… 

"Go tell your narcissism to a mirror back home, Hancock…" 

"Marine Headquarters is not a place for you to act wild like in Amazon Lily!" 

Rowen bit into his cigar, his expression cold and stern: "Otherwise, I wouldn't mind turning the rumors at sea into reality."

"You…"

Hancock was taken aback, turning to look at Rowen in disbelief: "You actually ignored my charm?!"

After all these years, even the steadfast officers of the War Faction within the Marines couldn't resist her allure, regardless of gender.

And now, there was a man before her who ignored her charm.

"Soryu (Azure Dragon)!" 

Hancock's expression turned cold inexplicably.

The ones who had rescued her from the grasp of the Celestial Dragons were not just Fisher Tiger but also Silvers Rayleigh and Shakky.

Through certain channels, Hancock clearly remembered that it was this young Marine before her who had led her benefactor Rayleigh to his demise.

In the original story, she agreed to come to the battlefield due to Luffy's request. Now, her agreement to come was not only influenced by the overwhelming military force of the Marines, making it impossible for Amazon Lily in the Calm Belt to remain isolated but also carried the intent of confronting her enemies.

Now, upon seeing him, he was indeed extraordinary!

Her greatest trump card, her charm, was completely disregarded by this man.

No, to be more precise, it wasn't being ignored!

His gaze could hardly conceal his astonishment at her beauty, yet the cold indifference and ruthlessness in his eyes treated her like a mere toy, reminiscent of the days she spent in the Holy Land, the way those Celestial Dragons looked at her.

She was a delicate doll...

They didn't even see her as a person!

"Don't look at me like that…" 

Rowen pulled out a chair and sat down, calmly meeting her gaze: "Let me ask you a question. Do you remember how many people have fallen at your feet, Hancock?"

"Hmph!" 

Hancock regained her composure and haughtily responded with a "hmph," exuding the aura of a queen: "Filthy, despicable men are no more memorable than grains of sand on the beach."

"I feel the same way." 

Rowen sneered, his gaze growing cold: "I can't remember how many pieces of bread I've eaten either."

Bang!

As soon as he finished speaking, an icy, overwhelming killing intent emanated from his body.

The violent Haoshoku waves shattered windows, and the walls cracked with numerous fissures. The surging Haki crashed against the hearts of everyone present like tidal waves, making it hard for them to breathe.

Indistinctly, the world-shaking roar of a dragon echoed in all directions, plunging them into an abyss of darkness, dominated by fear.

In this world, for Rowen, besides the one thing he desired, no one was irreplaceable.

To the world, Hancock was an alluring and irresistible "The Most Beautiful Women In The World," but to him, stripping away all the powers and prestige surrounding her, her value as an "individual" was worth less than the bowl of plain congee he had for breakfast that morning.

In simple terms, he possessed a will that transcended everything!

The pleasures of flesh and spirit would ultimately yield to this extraordinary will!

With the support of this willpower, Hancock's charm held no significance for him.

Faced with Rowen's overwhelming display of power, Hancock suddenly understood.

It wasn't that he didn't regard her as a person.

It was that in his eyes, they simply did not exist; he didn't regard anyone as a person!

The height at which this man stood was terrifying to contemplate!

Bang!

"It seems you all are having quite the lively conversation?" 

At that moment, Sengoku, who had been waiting outside, pushed the door open and calmly scanned the hall.

Rowen seized the opportunity to withdraw, completely retracting his Haki and restoring the previous tranquility. But after such an incident, no one dared to underestimate the silent man.

Nor the Marine Headquarters standing behind him!

That's right, everything was a well-planned show of strength by Rowen and Sengoku.

First, they struck hard, then they would discuss other matters.

In dealing with the unruly Shichibukai, especially Hancock, this arrangement was indeed very necessary.

"Rest assured, everyone; the government absolutely has no intention of abolishing the Shichibukai system. Your concerns are somewhat unnecessary." 

Sengoku reassured them, then smiled amiably.

"Now is a critical period, and I hope everyone can work together to get through this tough time."

"Right?"

Right?

That was clearly a redundant statement.

Once able to stand on equal footing with Marine Headquarters, the Oka Shichibukai, after losing Kuma and Mihawk, had no qualifications to engage in equal dialogue with the Marines.

The reason Sengoku was being so polite now was purely due to the unpublicized presence of "Fujitora" Issho and the Marine's routine respect for the government.

Don Sai nodded, embarrassed, without speaking.

Hancock's face turned pale, but she dared not vent her frustration.

Because she knew that the monster sitting beside Sengoku, the Marine's Soryu, truly wouldn't mind having another piece of bread or killing another person.
