"One Piece" Events:
"Strangely enough, while we were slaves... we were forced to eat the Mero Mero and Hebi Hebi fruits as entertainment."
Hancock recalled some additional details and told Luffy the reason for their success in deceiving everyone after the escape.
"And thanks to those powers, we were able to fool the country... and protect our secret."
"If you hadn't covered up Sonia's back, we wouldn't have been able to stay on this island..."
"We can't let anybody know about our past...!!!" Her tears wet her face again when she said that... her crying was a sign of the death of the former Ice Goddess.
"Even if we have to deceive an entire country... I'll never show any weaknesses!!! I won't be controlled by anybody ever again...!!!"
"..." Hearing that, Luffy's expression stiffened.
"I'm afraid to let my guard down again against anybody...!! ... I can't face... my own fear...!!! Hic...!!!"
At that moment, she looked like a broken doll; anyone who saw this scene would instinctively want to protect her.
"Sister...!!" Both Sonia and Mari cried as well.
"But... it's been a while... since you've let your emotions show like this... recently, it's as if Lady Hebihime had been turned to ice...!!" Gloriosa intervened at this moment to dispel the gloomy atmosphere.
"Silence, you traitor!!" exclaimed Hancock.
"You be silent!! You escaped the Tenryuubito only to find you had no way of returning to the island. You were just three lost, hurt little girls!!" Gloriosa was angry, so she quickly reminded them of who helped them return.
"Just who do you think brought you back here!! It's all because I was living in the outside world!!!"
"Hmph! You're blowing things out of proportion..." snorted Hancock.
"Whaaat!!?" exclaimed Gloriosa.
"I've been looking after you like a mother..." After saying that, Hancock asked Luffy without looking at him.
"You..!! Do you despise me... for being a slave?"
"I told you I hate the Tenryllibito, didn't I!!?" Luffy's response was clear.
This delighted Hancock, who regained her smile: "Fufufu, I've taken a liking to you!! Tell me where you want to go!! I'll lend you my ship!"
"Really!!?" Luffy was pleasantly surprised.
Foosha Town:
Inside the art store, silence prevailed at this moment, until it was broken by a very familiar laughter...
"Buwahahahaha!!! What a good grandson he is!"
"Look how he managed to make stunning beauty fall for him! That's a little less than the splendor of his grandfather!"
"... Back when I met your mother, I had no thoughts of pursuing her! She was the one chasing me!" Garp looked at Dragon with pride and superiority as he said that.
"..." Dragon shivered imperceptibly as he remembered his mother, but quickly regained his cold expression.
"It's not like she fell for him; she just told him that she admired him." Dragon's response was straightforward.
"Tsk, boring..."
"... By the way, this man called Fisher Tiger... you need someone like him in your revolutionary army." Garp's voice was low as he whispered those important words.
The other members nodded after hearing Garp's suggestion.
"Since the moment I saw what he did, I had already decided... He's a great man... I won't hesitate to embrace him for our cause, I won't allow the death of such a hero." Dragon declared in a low voice as well.
"Good." Kuma, Ivankov, and even Crocodile felt relieved after hearing Dragon's confirmation.
"And... As you can see, the Celestial Dragons use Devil Fruits as entertainment by feeding them to slaves. It's a tradition for them. It's a waste of war resources. Now, with the appearance of what they call 'Treasure Rooms', this habit has started to recede a bit. You can use this to your advantage."
Although Dragon found his arrival very annoying, he did not deny the usefulness of his father Garp for him and the revolutionary army.
From time to time, Garp gave him valuable insights without boasting about his overwhelming strength.
"How's that?" Dragon asked.
"By my joining and your alliance with the Sky Sword, this allows you to openly appear as an official organization instead of staying in the shadows. You can create your own treasure rooms."
...
Fish-Man Island:
'These young girls... they resemble Hancock and her sisters!!?' Tiger was surprised to see Little Hancock, Mari, and Sonia looking at him with smiles, while Little Hancock offered him a handkerchief to wipe his tears.
"That's kind of you, little girl... who is your father?" Tiger took the handkerchief from her hand, trying to put a smile on his face with a hint of exhaustion.
"My father owns this store and is the author of that manga in your hands." Hancock pointed to the floor beneath her and then to the book in Tiger's hands.
"You mean Rob-san?"
"That's right. I'm Hancock, this is my sister Sandersonia, and this is my younger sister Marigold."
'Hancock... Sandersonia and Marigold... why are these names so familiar?' Tiger began to look at the children and then at the manga page, repeatedly, until he was convinced.
"You... are their counterparts in reality, right?" Tiger showed a specific manga page and pointed uncertainly to Hancock, Mari, and Sonia.
"That's right." Hancock's answer was direct.
"You are the counterpart of Fisher Tiger who saved them from the enslavement of the Celestial Dragons. That's why my father called you a hero. You are really a hero in our eyes, too!"
"I haven't done anything yet to deserve the title of hero, little girl."
"Nevertheless, my father said that doesn't mean you don't possess a heroic spirit."
"My father told me to give you this instead of him because he has work to do." Hancock handed Tiger what seemed to be a golden invitation, which he took with a puzzled expression.
'Invitation to enter the closed beta of 'The dungeon'... What is this?' Tiger didn't understand anything.
...
Amazon Lily:
Olvia wiped away the last tears shed due to Hancock and her sisters' painful story.
When Hancock cried and said she was afraid of being controlled again, Olvia felt like her world was collapsing. She wanted to enter the world of manga and give her a warm hug, reassuring her that it would never happen.
Her current feeling was no less than what she felt when she read about her real daughter Robin's past at that time.
"Hancock, Mari, and Sonia also suffered a lot... to be slaves of the Celestial Dragons... that's the cruelest thing in life," Olvia said.
"Yes... they were fortunate to escape... without that man from Fishman race, they would have lived and died in agony." Bell-mre expressed complex emotions. She hadn't felt that yet, but all the remaining negative feelings toward the Fishman race from the Arlong Arc had been completely washed away.
"Tiger... he honored the Fishman race in the best possible way." A bright smile appeared on the beautiful and gentle mermaid, Otohime.
"Well, it seems Luffy is definitely enjoying his time on the Women's Island... Fufufu, the women who haven't had the chance to interact with a male before will devour him, and there won't be anything left of him even bones because of his scent as a male!"
"Come on, girls! It's time to get back to work...!" Shakky announced after laughing at the scene of Luffy at the party with the women of Amazon Lily.
