One Piece: Yujiro Hanma

"Cousin, what is that human trying to do with our Queen—?"

"Please…! D-Don't stop, husband! Inside… I want to feel it all~❤️!"

"I…can't…breathe…! B-But don't…STOP!"

!

"Eh?! Wait a second… why is the Queen suddenly screaming? IS SHE IN PAIN?!"

The giant octopus frowned, visibly confused.

"…don't ask unnecessary questions. Just take the Queen out of here and get her to the East Blue."

…

Three days later, the Calm Belt was behind them, and the wind of the East Blue blew across the deck of the ship.

Inside the cabin, the air was thick with a salty, heavy scent, not yet dissipated.

The atmosphere still held onto the heat from before.

Tiberion, his naked body stretched out on the floor, lay motionless, his breathing steady, though his eyes still burned behind closed lids.

On top of him, completely still, rested Shirahoshi.

Her enormous mermaid body draped over her husband's. Her long hair was tangled, falling across the floor and over Tiberion's chest.

Her face was wet, both with sweat and tears. Her breathing was ragged, and every now and then a sigh escaped her lips, muffled by exhaustion.

With effort, she slowly raised her face and looked into his eyes. Though she didn't have the strength to move, her expression conveyed satisfaction, embarrassment… and sorrow.

With trembling fingers, she caressed her husband's chin, feeling his warmth… the warmth she loved.

"I'm sorry, husband…" she whispered, and her tears began to fall again. Her voice was thick with guilt, with helplessness. "I couldn't keep going… I couldn't give you everything…"

Tiberion opened his eyes, and his gaze wasn't one of disappointment. It was warm and understanding. He raised his hand and gently placed it on Shirahoshi's head, slowly stroking her soaked hair.

"Shh… You've done more than your body can endure. I'm proud of you."

She pressed her lips together and lowered her gaze, feeling a tightness in her chest.

She wanted more. She wanted to give him everything. She wanted to please him, to leave her mark as he had left his.

But her body couldn't take any more. Three full days without rest… had drained her.

Tiberion's desire was no longer normal.

Although it hadn't been normal before either, after awakening the Hanma bloodline, his power, testosterone, and endurance had risen to unimaginable levels.

Every one of his thrusts felt like getting hit by a truck—an overwhelming force that Shirahoshi adored… and feared at the same time.

Not because she was afraid of him, but because she feared not being able to keep up.

"Rest," Tiberion said softly, placing a warm, lingering kiss on her forehead. "You've earned it."

Shirahoshi slowly closed her eyes with a smile of relief. Her exhausted body quickly gave in to sleep.

Tiberion remained still for a few more seconds, feeling her breathing slow down over his chest. Then, without waking her or making a sound, he sat up.

His height gradually returned to normal, and he only put on his pants, leaving his torso bare, before heading to the door.

As he opened it, the dawn light gently bathed his body, and the pirates on deck immediately stepped aside without daring to raise their eyes.

Without saying a word, he looked up at the massive octopus that remained on the surface.

"We're heading to Dawn Island, Foosha Village."

The octopus nodded without question, and the sea stirred once more, obedient.

Even though Shirahoshi hadn't given the order, everyone already understood: Tiberion's will was the Queen's will.

He soon attracted the other Sea Kings.

They communicated among themselves, and one of them knew exactly where Dawn Island was.

"Don't worry, I know that island."

"Over a decade ago, my brother asked for my help in that area. He'd bitten a human who had fallen into the sea, and that human released a Conqueror's Haki so intense it nearly scared him to death."

"Since then, he's carried that grudge. Although we never found that guy, I did become familiar with the area. Don't worry, I'll get the Queen there without error."

A Sea King with the torso of a gorilla and a bluish-green fish body from the waist down led the way ahead with full confidence.

His words were well received by the others, who all shared the same thought: they didn't want to leave their Queen behind just yet.

To them, the Queen was a godlike being, and that bond went far beyond simple respect.

The giant octopus, carrying the ship in its thick tentacles as if it were a toy, maintained an absurd level of speed.

The water violently parted in its wake, leaving behind a foamy white trail that vanished into the distance.

Along the way, any pirate ship that happened to cross paths with such a group was left completely stunned.

"What the hell just happened?!"

"Did that… look like a group of Sea Kings?"

"That's what I thought too! But where are they going in such a hurry, like they're about to jump into a fight?"

"A fight, my ass! I swear I saw a pirate ship tangled up in one of their tentacles!"

"What a strange sight…"

"It's not that Straw Hat guy, is it?... He's been causing quite a stir in the East Blue lately."

"They say the Hero of the Marines, who was visiting, went after him personally this time."

"Heh, if it's Vice Admiral Garp… that Straw Hat's gonna end up smashed to bits at the bottom of the sea."

Meanwhile, dozens of Marine warships patrolled the seas, deployed under orders from Marine Headquarters: locate a pirate ship that had entered from the Grand Line.

The order didn't just specify the location—it included a crucial detail: the ship in question flew a black flag with a strange skull bearing a disturbing smile.

Naturally, Tiberion wasted no time and, before departing the Archipelago, ordered the ship's flag to be changed.

And this didn't escape the attention of Marine Headquarters intelligence.

From a distance, on the deck of a Marine warship, a marine held a pair of binoculars.

His pupils contracted at the sight: a pirate ship being carried by a Sea King. Not just one, or two—but more than a dozen Sea Kings moving across the surface of the ocean.

Everyone on the ship stepped back instinctively. They couldn't tell whether what they were seeing was an illusion or a shared nightmare.

The marine slowly lowered his binoculars, sweat running down his temple, and shouted into the communicator:

"Target located!"

"We've confirmed the approximate position! They're heading toward the maritime zone of Dawn Island!"

Marine Headquarters: "Copy that. Maintain surveillance. Do not engage without backup."

The warships carrying the Shichibukai also received the report. Having already entered the East Blue two days earlier, they had set up a strategic deployment in advance.

After all, it's nothing new for a pirate ship to be unable to outrun Headquarters' warships.

News of Tiberion Hanma's course spread quickly.

When Gion heard that Tiberion was heading for Dawn Island, she tensed up. Not only was Foosha Village located there, but it was also the most sensitive place for Garp. It was obvious that monster wasn't heading there by chance. Was this a provocation…?

Without wasting time, she contacted Garp through the Den Den Mushi. The line connected quickly, and the gruff voice of the old man barked through:

"Who the hell's bothering this old man?"

"Vice Admiral Garp, this is Vice Admiral Momousagi. By order of Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I've come to pursue Tiberion Hanma, who has entered the East Blue."

"Ah, little Gion… Did you get yourself into trouble or something?"

Garp's tone shifted immediately.

There was a subtle warmth in his tone, due to his closeness with Tsuru, who had raised Gion as if she were her younger sister.

"We've already located him, Vice Admiral Garp. But he's heading straight for the area near Dawn Island. We thought it was necessary to inform you… just in case."

There was silence. Then, a direct response:

"Understood. You all continue the pursuit. This old man will head to Dawn Island immediately."

Garp hung up without another word.

He rose from his seat and walked toward the bow. With his gaze fixed on the sea, and for the first time in a long while, his smile vanished and his brows furrowed.

"I'll have to stop chasing that idiot Luffy for now…" he muttered with regret.

His hands slowly clenched into fists. The veins on his knuckles stood out strongly.

Suddenly, without making a sound, the air around him shifted. A chill swept across the deck. The messenger gulls flew off, screeching.

"Tiberion better not try anything crazy… or I'll tear his head off."

…

The midday sun still shone brightly when the sea's surface trembled with violent ripples.

In less than half a day, the Sea Kings had reached the waters off Dawn Island, at Foosha Village, and from afar the village's windmill was already visible.

"Brother, come out! Our Queen is here!" shouted the Sea King with the bluish-green gorilla torso.

In the distance, the sea stirred.

From beneath the waves, a brown creature emerged—not very large.

Its elongated body resembled that of an eel. Behind it, dozens of subordinates followed.

If Shanks the Red-Haired had been present, he would have recognized it without a doubt.

It was the same Sea King that had bitten off his arm more than ten years ago.
