One Piece: Fate's Unyielding Marine

After being escorted to G-5 by Shiryu, Boa Hancock did not immediately go to the dungeon on the first floor.

She looked at Shiryu calmly and asked, "Can you... communicate with Rairyu? I want to see him."

Shiryu frowned.

Dylan didn't like this woman very much, but he hadn't killed her directly before...

After thinking for a moment, Shiryu took out the Den Den Mushi in his arms:

"Um?"

Shiryu looked Dylan in the eyes and said, "She wants to see you."

Dylan on the other end of the Den Den Mushi didn't seem surprised. He nodded and said, "Bring her up."

After receiving Dylan's instructions, Shiryu nodded towards Boa Hancock, and then walked up to the lifting platform first.

Boa Hancock stood aside.

Shiryu of the "Rain" did not restrain her from beginning to end. This is not trust.

It's confidence!

After sighing softly, Boa Hancock looked up.

Rumor has it that the man is about to attack Mariejois...

He...

Bang!!

The lift stopped, and Boa Hancock walked towards the huge office opposite.

The people around her turned a blind eye to her, including the ordinary civil servants who didn't care about the "big pirate" and "the second most beautiful woman in the world" who was once famous all over the world.

After taking a slow breath, Boa Hancock stepped into Dylan's office.

Dylan was sitting on the sofa in the living room drinking tea.

"Sky Fox" Tahir sat opposite him making tea.

Surprisingly, this time Dylan didn't taunt her or laugh at her.

Dylan raised his chin towards her and motioned for her to sit on the other side.

After she sat down, Shiryu sat across from her.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Boa Hancock clenched her palms tightly: "Can you... let Salome go back..."

Although the two giant snakes on the "Perfume Yuda" also have the ability to drag the ship through the Calm Belt, their IQs are not high.

Without Salome's leadership, it would be almost impossible for them to return to Amazon Lily.

And giant snakes of this size are rare in Amazon Lily.

If they are lost, Amazon Lily will almost fall into a natural slow death.

"The snake? Okay. That's it?"

After receiving Dylan's answer, Boa Hancock first breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked seriously: "And..."

The palms of her hands turned white from her grip. After calming down, she whispered: "Two years ago... the Kuja Pirates ceased to exist, and there are no pirates in Amazon Lily today. It's...them..."

Dylan frowned and looked at the greatly changed woman in front of him.

All her arrogance had disappeared, and she seemed to have returned to the way she was when she was a child...

"There's something wrong with your statement."

Dylan said calmly: "As far as I know, you were actually ready two years ago, so most of the people who died were..."

Dylan chuckled.

Two years ago, when he went to Amazon Lily to collect debts, although many of the heads given by the other party were combatants of the Kuja Pirates, a considerable number of them were old and weak.

And her two sisters and Gloriosa were not among them.

Boa Hancock's body tensed, but she reacted immediately.

He had noticed this kind of thing from the beginning...Since he didn't pursue it at the time...

"Do you know why I didn't pursue it at that time?"

Dylan lit a cigarette and took a sip before looking at the woman in front of him who had lost her pride.

"Because from some perspectives, I sympathize with you. After all, you have been slaves of the Celestial Dragons. You are also victims of the world."

Boa Hancock's pupils shrank.

He...

"How could he know..."

"But," Dylan flicked the ashes from his cigarette, and his expression became a little cold.

"Just because you have been harmed does not mean that you have the right to pass the harm on to innocent civilians."

Thirteen years ago, Boa Hancock, who had just turned eighteen, showed amazing strength, and Amazon Lily was located in the treacherous Calm Belt. The World Government chose to recruit her as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. 

In order to protect Amazon Lily and to be able to plunder legally, Boa Hancock chose to accept it.

"You have been hurt, so you are going to double your revenge on the world? When I sent Bell-mère, it was a warning to you, but it's a pity that you were blinded by your own arrogance."

"The islands and products around Amazon Lily are enough to support you, but you still go out to sea to plunder. In addition to other pirates, you also rob civilians and merchant ships. You are guilty —"

"You will be punished!"

Looking at Boa Hancock, who was trembling slightly, Dylan put out the cigarette in his hand and put his hands on the back of the sofa: "Before the Summit War, I asked Onigumo to bring you a message.

What about you? For an unknown man, you dared to attack the Marines in that situation?"

"How can you be a king with a brain like yours? Prison is more suitable for you."

"I see..."

Boa Hancock slowly stood up.

The meaning of Rairyu was already obvious. He had no intention of destroying the entire Amazon Lily, because most of the people there were innocent. 

But if she were to lead...

Her identity as a pirate and her having assisted Luffy may become tipping points in the future.

Shiryu didn't escort her again.

When she reached the door, Boa Hancock stopped and turned around slowly.

"I hope you can succeed. I will repent in the G-5 prison."

The guard at the door saw Shiryu not coming out and nodded to her, then took her on the elevator to the lower floor.

"Imprisoned until death?"

Tahir asked symbolically after Boa Hancock left.

Dylan usually doesn't ask about these things anymore.

But judging from Tahir's judgment, Dylan may not really have the intention to imprison that woman for life.

Of course, if he had, he would have followed it through in the next few decades.

"No need to."

Dylan waved his hand.

"She is just a fool. Let's lock her up for ten years. After ten years, the world will be basically stable. And..."

Dylan glanced at the map.

"The Calm Belt should long ago cease to exist in ten years. By then, there may not be major wars, but small frictions will definitely continue. Amazon Lily... also needs someone to lead it."

After speaking, Dylan glanced at Shiryu. Inside his body...

When he first observed Craig, he could clearly sense the presence of Garuda.

There are many factors in this that Garuda took the initiative to communicate with him, but now...

Dylan carefully sensed the spiritual will in Shiryu's body but could only vaguely detect something.

It's okay not to wake up...

After all, Ashura's nature is too bellicose.

"Get ready."

Dylan tapped the table.

"Combatants: Tahir, Shiryu, Ain, Tom. Target —"

"Wano!"
