53 The Great Changes In Sonia And Mary

"Lord Snake Princess!"

Sandersonia and Marigold were immediately respectful when they recognized Hancock.

Hancock nodded and gestured for them to stand down. She looked at Arias, who was standing beside her, and introduced him to the warriors.

"This is Arias, a friend of mine. He's a powerful ally. Treat him with the same respect you show to me."

The Nine Snakes warriors hesitated for a moment, but seeing Hancock's approval, they reluctantly lowered their weapons and allowed Arias to enter.

Once they were inside the island, Arias noticed the unique architecture and the presence of fierce-looking female warriors. He couldn't help but ask Hancock, "What kind of place is this? It's quite extraordinary."

Hancock smiled, "Welcome to Amazon Lily, an island exclusively inhabited by women. We are a powerful and independent tribe of warriors. Men are not allowed on this island."

Arias raised an eyebrow, "No men at all? How does the population sustain itself?"

Hancock chuckled, "We have our ways. Our society functions without the need for men, and we prioritize strength and skill in combat. If you're here, it means you have my trust."

They walked through the lush and vibrant island, passing through different training grounds where the Nine Snakes warriors displayed their martial prowess. Arias couldn't help but appreciate the strength and discipline of the women on the island.

As they reached the central palace, Hancock turned to Arias, "You can stay here for a while. It's considered an honor to have a male guest on Amazon Lily. Just follow the rules, and you'll be fine."

Arias nodded, "Thank you for your hospitality, Snake Princess."

Hancock smiled and left him in the care of the Amazon Lily warriors. Arias couldn't shake off the feeling that his journey had taken an unexpected turn, but he was curious to explore this unique and powerful island.

"Second sister, third sister, why are you..."

Although the image of the two people has changed drastically, Hancock is still sure that these are them.

At this moment, her memory seemed to go back to her childhood when both sisters' bodies were normal.

Although their appearance is not as good as hers, they are both pretty and cute.

However, ever since they were captured by the Celestial Dragons and made into slaves, and forced to eat the Snake Fruit, the bodies of the two sworn sisters have become more and more unlike ordinary people.

As Hancock approached, both Sandersonia and Marigold knelt down, showing utmost respect. Their emotions were mixed – grateful to see Hancock again, but also carrying the burden of the changes forced upon them.

"Snake Princess, we're back," Marigold said, her voice carrying a mixture of joy and sadness.

Hancock couldn't hide the sorrow in her eyes as she approached them. "What have they done to you?" she whispered, touching their faces gently.

Sandersonia forced a smile. "We endured it all for you, Sister. We were determined to survive and be reunited with you."

Marigold nodded in agreement. "Now that we're back, we can stand by your side again, Sister Hancock."

Hancock's heart ached for her sisters. She knew the agony they had suffered, and the sacrifices they made to protect her. The pain of seeing them transformed into giant snakes by the Celestial Dragons was etched in her memory.

"Stand up, my sisters," Hancock said, her voice filled with compassion. "You've been through so much. Now that you're back, we'll face the world together."

As they stood up, Hancock glanced at Hiyori and Yamato, introducing them, "These are my sisters, Sandersonia and Marigold. They've been through unimaginable hardships. And these two are Hiyori and Yamato."

The atmosphere on Amazon Lily became emotional, a mix of joy, sorrow, and determination. The reunion of the sisters marked a turning point in their lives, and the island of women embraced the moment with unwavering solidarity.

Arias gently stroked Hancock's hair, a tender smile on his face. "Of course, my love. Your sisters deserve to experience the benefits of the Immortal Thief of Liuku. I'll be happy to teach them."

Hancock's eyes gleamed with gratitude. "Thank you, Arias. I want them to be strong and live free, just like you helped me."

Arias kissed her forehead softly. "Anything for you, my Snake Princess."

The next day, Arias began teaching Sandersonia and Marigold the Immortal Thief of Liuku. The sisters, who had already practiced Qi, found the technique both fascinating and powerful.

As Arias guided them through the exercises, the sisters felt the profound energy circulating within their bodies. The violent power of the Snake Fruit, which had caused their bodies to transform, was gradually being harmonized by the gentle flow of Qi.

Arias emphasized the importance of balance between the body's natural energy and the power of the Devil Fruit. He patiently guided them through the process, ensuring they understood the principles behind the Immortal Thief of Liuku.

Sandersonia and Marigold were grateful to Arias for this gift. Not only did the technique enhance their physical strength, but it also brought a sense of tranquility to their once turbulent bodies.

Over time, the sisters mastered the Immortal Thief of Liuku under Arias's guidance. Their bodies became more resilient, and the violent effects of the Snake Fruit were visibly mitigated.

Hancock watched her sisters' progress with a mixture of joy and relief. Seeing them regain a semblance of their former selves filled her heart with gratitude towards Arias.

The island of Amazon Lily flourished under the unity of its warriors, strengthened by newfound knowledge and the support of the Immortal Thief of Liuku. Arias, Hancock, and the sisters stood together, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

Arias chuckled at Hancock's suggestion, his eyes glinting mischievously. "Well, my Snake Princess, teaching the Immortal Thief of Liuku to your sisters is one thing, but the other suggestion sounds quite tempting."

Hancock's face flushed slightly, and she playfully nudged Arias. "You're always teasing me. But seriously, can you help them with the Immortal Thief of Liuku? I want them to have a chance at a normal life."

Arias nodded, his tone becoming more serious. "Of course, Hancock. I'll teach them the technique. It will not only restore their physical appearance but also grant them the benefits of immortality. However, remember that the process is delicate, and they must truly understand the essence of Qi."

Hancock's eyes gleamed with gratitude. "Thank you, Arias. I appreciate everything you do for me and my sisters."

With a warm smile, Arias reassured her, "It's my pleasure, my love. Now, let's focus on making your sisters stronger and ensuring they have a bright future."

The following days were filled with intensive training for Sandersonia and Marigold. Under Arias's patient guidance, they delved into the profound techniques of the Immortal Thief of Liuku. The sisters embraced the training with determination, fueled by the prospect of regaining their former selves.

As they progressed, Arias noticed the positive changes in their bodies. The violent effects of the Snake Fruit were gradually subdued, and their physical appearances started returning to normal.

During a break in training, Sonia hesitantly approached Arias. "Um, Brother Arias, can you really help us return to how we were before?"

Arias grinned, ruffling her hair affectionately. "Absolutely. Trust in the process, and soon you'll see the results."

With newfound hope, the sisters continued their training, eager for the day they could fully reclaim their identities and live without the limitations imposed by the Devil Fruit.

The island of Amazon Lily buzzed with excitement, unaware of the transformative journey unfolding within its borders. Arias, Hancock, and the sisters stood united, facing the challenges ahead with resilience and determination.
