25 Chapter 23: Intense Battle!
A few hundred meters away from the Bandit Camp.
"Big Sister"
Instantly footsteps from Hancock and her two sisters stopped. This action they took was because through the Observation Rights they currently have, they felt the existence of several people who were watching them.
"Come out! Do you guys think we didn't find your whereabouts?!" Hancock said coldly, staring at the front where the bandits gathered.
"Hahaha" Instantly the sound of laughter immediately sounded very strongly followed by footsteps walking out of the bushes.
The person who came out was the bandit leader who was targeted by Hancock and others. Along with the bandit leader's family, followed by his men who were already holding rifles and swords with lustful eyes at Hancock.
"I didn't expect that we would be discovered by you guys" The bandit leader directly opened the conversation with his gaze staring at Hancock lustfully, "It's very beautiful. I wondered how you would look when you weren't wearing clothes later. Surely it will be a date that nothing will be able to match"
The words of the bandit leader immediately made Hancock very angry and annoyed, especially the gaze of the bandit leader staring at him with a lustful look.
"All men are the same! They are disgusting!" Hancock said with a face full of annoyance as she directly activated her devil fruit ability.
Hancock immediately kissed her sweet lips using her right hand while creating a large red love emblem where the symbol of love became an arrow ready to be used by Hancock.
"What?! Ability user?"
The bandit leader was surprised by the ability Hancock showed.
"It's too late! Love arrow!"
Hancock immediately released the bow that had been drawn by her and a large number of pink arrows instantly attacked the bandits.
"Danger!"
The bandit leader as well as his subordinates immediately feel a dangerous threat through the love arrows that will attack them. The bandit leader immediately used the axe owned by him to destroy all the arrows that came towards him while occasionally avoiding the arrow's attack.
Unlike the bandit leader, his subordinates are unlucky bandits. They were all previously enamored with the charm Hancock had and since their level was the same, they were unable to dodge the attacks unleashed by Hancock. Even bandits with a level higher level than Hancock, which is level 2, are not able to dodge the attack well and are hit by the attack.
All the bandits who were hit by Hancock's attack did not die immediately but instantly turned into stone.
"How is it possible?!"
The bandit leader was shocked by the change in the appearance of his subordinates who at this time their entirety had turned to stone as a result of being hit by an attack released by Hancock.
"Hmph! That was a reply for daring to mock the Big Sister" Sandersonia said with great pride but she did not dare to lower her vigilance because Sandersonia could feel the power of the bandit leader was stronger than theirs.
On the other hand, he also saw at the top of the bandit leader's head, it was noted that the level of the bandit leader was level 3 which was 2 times higher than the level they currently have.
"Don't be happy just yet, Sonia" Hancock immediately said seriously, "Although those disgusting men have turned into stone. Still, they are currently not dead. Have you forgotten what Rayleigh said before to us?"
"The monsters in the dungeon are different from ours" Marigold added, "Their lives are hanging with a green bar that is on top of their heads. As long as we manage to finish off the bar—"
*BOOM!*
Before the sentence from Marigold was finished, the bandit leader in front of him kicked the ground very firmly, which caused the surrounding ground to be directly cracked due to the power of the kick.
Instantly Hancock and her two sisters changed their expressions to be more serious than before.
"I didn't expect that you guys are not just ordinary women. I have misjudged you guys" The bandit leader said coldly: "You are those adventurers, aren't you?"
"If so, why?"
"Hahahaha," The bandit leader laughed coldly while his gaze became sharp like the hunters looking at the prey, "If so, it's really good. Although it is a pity that you have to turn my subordinates into stones. I can still find new subordinates to replace them"
Hancock and her two sisters who heard this immediately screamed angrily.
"But, I was very lucky to meet you guys" The bandit leader's gaze became more thirsty than before, "I can catch you then make you slaves, and then sell them to those disgusting nobles. Hahaha, What a very lucky day—"
Before the bandit leader finished his sentence, instantly he saw Hancock making a move quickly moving toward him,
"Brazen! Perfuru Femuru!"
Hancock immediately launched an attack very hard using her legs covered by her Haki Armament ability.
The bandit leader who had already seen the movement made by Hancock immediately raised the axe held by him and then blocked the attack.
*BOOM!*
"Hahahaha, is this the only power you have? Although it is still lacking, it is already quite good! I changed my mind! I will only make the two women into slaves while you" The bandit leader's gaze became lustful looking at Hancock, "You I will make as my slave personally! Hahahaha"
"This bastard!" Hancock was furious at this and instantly felt the repulsion made by the bandit leader.
Hancock immediately jumped back and her gaze staring at the bandit leader became sharp.
"Sonia" Marigold immediately called Sandersonia who was beside her, "You take care of the bandit's subordinates. Destroy all the statues. They will instantly die. I will help the Big Sister to defeat the bandit leader. With the current strength of the Big Sister, it will not be possible to defeat her alone, especially since the strength of the Big Sister must have been reduced at this time after she used her devil fruit abilities and her Haki Weaponry"
"I understand" Sandersonia nodded and immediately made a movement towards the bandits who had already been turned by Hancock into stone.
"Do you think I will let you kill my men?!" The bandit leader asked angrily after seeing Sandersonia who was moving quickly towards his men.
The bandit leader at high speed immediately ran and then jumped towards Sandersonia raising his axe towards the back of his body to attack Sandersonia by making a defensive slash using the axe.
"Sonia!"
Hancock was surprised by the movements made by the bandit leader.
"Hahahaha! Dead!"
However, before the axe was about to hit Sandersonia immediately, Marigold had already appeared in front of Sandersonia while using her Naginata and immediately blocked the attack released by the bandit leader.
"Mari!" Sandersonia and Hancock were very pleased to see the emergence of marigolds.
"Damn! It's so heavy! Don't be distracted by the current situation, Sonia! Hurry up and kill those subordinates so that the three of us bosa work together to kill him" Marigold said seriously while resisting the attack released by the bandit leader with a face full of twitches.
"Ok"
Sandersonia, who was resuscitated by Marigold, immediately made a move back by running towards the bandits who had been turned into stone.
"Bastard! You will be the first person to be made a slave by me, Fat!"
The bandit leader instantly used his momentum and instantly twisted his body while kicking strong marigolds
*BOOM!*
Marigold was immediately kicked back very firmly by the bandit leader and immediately hit the tree there hard.
"Damn it! How dare you attack Mari! It's not uncommon to be forgiven!"
Hancock, who had been silent, again attacked the bandit leader. Hancock immediately ran very quickly towards the bandit leader then kicked her very strongly.
"Hahahaha, it's a stupid attack you made. Such an attack is not—"
"Perfuru Femuru Magna!"
Because the sense of pride possessed by him is related to defense, the bandit leader didn't even use his physical strength to resist the attack released by Hancock. This is what makes him get a very big loss because the first attack released by Hancock is an attack with half the power possessed by him while at this moment Hancock uses all the power possessed by him along with her Haki abilities.
"What?!"
Sure enough, although the bandit leader was able to withstand the attack released by Hancock using his axe. However, because the defense carried out did not use all his physical strength. The bandit leader was directly kicked back and hit the tree behind him firmly and the effect of the attack caused the blood of the bandit leader to have begun to diminish.
Along with this, the breath possessed by Hancock has also begun to be heavy at this time.
"Hahaha, Damn! Is this the only strength possessed at the current level?" Hancock muttered weakly, "This is too weak!" Hancock said while her face at this time was full of sweat, "At least, it can only use twice the ability of Haki Armaments before all my strength is exhausted. That disgusting man, he must be wiped out immediately"
*BOOM!*
It didn't take long for the bandit leader to return the bandit and with full force, he directly used his axe to hit the ground firmly.
"Damn! It hurts so much" The bandit leader said very angrily while staring at Hancock, "Bastard! I changed my mind! Compared to having to make you a slave! I will make you regret it all your life!" It's not just making you play for me! I will torture you! I will make you feel the consequences for daring to fight me!"
"Hmph! Do you think you are worthy to do such a thing?"
Although Hancock at this time was already exhausted. Her dignity as an Empress is unlikely to falter and be shown at this time.
"Damn it! Die for me!"
The bandit leader immediately moved towards Hancock's direction at a high speed. Hancock, who was the target point, also immediately prepared himself to resist the attack.
"Disgusting man! Have you forgotten about me?!"
Suddenly from the side, before the bandit leader reached Hancock, Marigold had arrived there with her current appearance changed compared to before., Marigold has now changed using her devil fruit ability, namely Hebi-Hebi no Mi: King Cobra model by using hybrid changes.
"What?!"
The bandit leader was surprised by the appearance of the Marigolds. However, the excitement was too late because Marigold used her Naginata and immediately slashed the bandit leader on his left body.
"Ah!"
The slash released by Marigold immediately gave a fair price scar on the bandit leader's body along with the blood possessed by him was also reduced quite a lot even though it was not up to half.
*BOOM!*
Along with that, Hancock used this opportunity by kicking the bandit leader using the strength of her legs covered by Haki Weaponry.
*BOOM!*
The bandit leader was instantly directly repelled back by the two of them with his blood at this time it had reached half of the full blood before.
"Are you okay, Big Sister?" Sandersonia asked nervously.
"I'm fine," Hancock said with a breath that was already quite heavy, "It's just that, I'm using my stamina too much at the moment. Chances are, I can only use the Haki Armament ability once, after that, I can't reuse"
"Then, Big Sister. Use the remaining abilities to solve that bandit leader" Marigold said with his breath that had already begun to drop as well, "I can't take too long to maintain my current ability. There is a possibility that it will only last for 1 minute then it will disappear soon"
"I know. But, that person is quite strong. It's hard to be able to defeat him using just one attack"
"The person's strength lies in his axe" Marigold added, "As long as we can make himself not use his axe, we will be able to defeat him easily"
"Making himself part with his axe..." Hancock muttered, "Solome! Look for a chance! As long as you have a chance! Use the opportunity to lock the body of the disgusting man using your body or not drag the axe possessed by him as far as possible"
*Seee~*
Solome nodded. Although she is just a snake, she has an intelligence that is above average and understands the words of Hancock.
"You all made you angry!" A cry full of anger sounded back from the bandit leader who had begun to rise from his current position with his side body parts already injured by the slash released by marigolds, "It turns out that you are not just a reeling woman who can only use Naginata's weapon"
"You look down on me too much!" Marigolds said coldly.
"Good! With you have this ability! You have such a high value for sale—"
Hancock and Marigold widened their eyes looking back where sandersonia was involved which had turned into her Hybrid appearance using the Devil Fruit Hebi-Hebi No Mi Model Anaconda had appeared behind the bandit leader and immediately hit the bandit leader very firmly.
"How dare you attack my sisters! Die! Men's men are disgusting!"
*BOOM!*
Without any self-defense, the bandit leader was immediately pushed forward and at the same time, the axe held by him slipped from his hand.
"Solome!"
Hancock ordered decisively.
Solome quickly moved at high speed then picked up the fallen axe and then took it away from the place.
"Big Sister! This is an opportunity!" Marigold said loudly.
'Let's do it!'
"Damn it! Who—"
Marigold immediately ran at high speed and arrived in front of the bandit leader who at this time she was slowly trying to stand up. Without giving her time pause, Marigold immediately used her Naginata to slash toward the bandit leader and her attack touched the right side of the head to the lower body.
"AH! Sick! It hurts so much!"
Without giving a chance and not pausing the attack released by him, Marigold next by twisting his body and then kicked the bandit leader towards Sandersonia.
"Sonia!"
"Ok!"
Sonia, who knew marigold's intentions, immediately launched her attack by performing a combo using her feet to the bandit leader.
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
"Ah! Sick! Sick! Sick! It hurts so much! Fuck! How dare you! Ah!"
A rumbling cry full of pain immediately sounded from the bandit leader's mouth which coincided with the shout, followed by his blood that was reduced very quickly.
The last kick that used Haki Weaponry was immediately released by Sandersonia which made the body of the bandit leader already very full of wounds from her attack along with his blood column at this time very little.
"Perfuru Femuru Magna!"
Hancock, who had been waiting for this opportunity, also immediately launched her leg attack covered by the power of her remaining Haki Weaponry and directly hit the bandit leader's body.
*BOOM!*
The kick released by Hancock used all her strength and hit right on the chest of the bandit leader destroying all the bones of the bandit leader with the blood in the blood column on the top of his head was reduced until there was no trace left. The bandit leader's body instantly turned into particles disappearing from the location.
The battle in the dungeon passed by the team finally came to an end. The battle was quite intense and at the end of that battle, Hancock, Marigold, and Sandersonia were. The three of them suffered from extreme fatigue because of all the stamina they were currently exhausted through the battle just now.
