He shook his head: "That kind of ability is not something you can deal with just because you want to. I'd better report it first."
Soon, He called Zhan Guo and reported what happened here.
When hearing about the other party's abilities, Zhan Guo also fell into deep thought.
A empress with outstanding abilities and suspected domineering aura is indeed a headache. Fortunately, the Nine Snakes' territory is fixed, and the navy can attack the Nine Snakes Island at any time as long as they are willing.
"You continue the surveillance mission and wait for my notification." Zhan Guo hung up the phone, perhaps to ask the World Government for its opinion.
Xia Zheteng and He continued to track and monitor openly.
After waiting for five days, when the Youshe was about to return to Jiushe Island, they received a notice from Zhan Guo.
Some things happened in the past few days. For example, Hancock was wanted. It was only her first time to go on an expedition and she fought a battle, and it was against pirates. Her combat power was highly evaluated.
But from the current perspective, He and Xia Zheteng followed each other and she did not take action. This should be regarded as a manifestation of goodwill, and the other party does not pose much threat to the World Government.
Therefore, the bounty offered is not too high, 8000 million Baileys, which can only be considered average.
Then the World Government meant that since the other party had no ill intentions, they would be included in the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
The Empress has special abilities, which is even better. It means that as long as she recruits the other party into the Seven Warlords of the Sea, she will have an extra force to deal with the Four Emperors.
After He finished the call, he told Zhan Guo's instructions, and then looked at Xia Zheteng: "How about this time, I should go. That kind of ability is very restraining for men."
Xia Zheteng shook his head. Snake Queen's ability could restrain men, but it was ineffective on him.
The sweet fruit was recorded, and petrification has been invalidated.
Therefore, Xia Zheteng was confident, and he had seen Snake Queen before in the Sabaody Islands, so he decided to do this himself.
"Leave it to me. We must let them see that there are people in the navy who can control themselves from being affected by her abilities. Only in this way can she be afraid of them."
"That's true." He looked at the confident Xia Zheteng and grinned. He was mainly afraid that you would turn into a stone statue and be carried back.
Chapter 101 They Can’t Learn It
On Amazon Lily Island, Hancock, who had returned with a full load, was sailing back with his high-spirited group.
However, just as they were about to enter the island, a navy ship blocked their way.
Both sides were very alert, especially the women on the snake boat.
For them, it is best not to provoke the navy unless necessary.
After all, the navy is too powerful, and they can use a large number of warships to attack Nine Snake Island at any time.
Longdan and the others stood at the bow and looked at the naval ship.
"Let Hancock come out to see me." Xia Zheteng asked all the soldiers to retreat back to the cabin, leaving only one person standing on the deck.
On the one hand, it was to show that he had no ill intentions, but on the other hand, what else could these soldiers do except send their heads to be turned into stones?
"I'm sorry, Lady Snake will not see you."
"Men are such tasteless creatures."
The people under the empress refused directly without even thinking about it.
Xia Zheteng's mouth curled up. Hancock, you're putting on airs. You're really bold.
But it depends on who you meet.
The other group of bootlickers will definitely fall into the trap, but I am different.
So Xia Zheteng jumped up directly and used the Moon Step to head towards the Snake Boat.
You know, not everyone can get on the snake boat, especially men.
Xia Zheteng's action also stunned all the crew members on the Snake Ship.
It wasn't until Xia Zheteng boarded the snake boat that they reacted.
"How dare you board the Perfume Serpent without permission."
"You are dead, man, you are dead."
"Let us kill him, hahaha..."
"Stop laughing, it's so vulgar."
The cadres of the Nine Snakes Pirate Group surrounded Xia Zheteng, each holding a weapon and staring at Xia Zheteng.
There were also a few small snakes swimming around, but their perception ability was still quite strong and they did not dare to get too close to Xia Zheteng, for fear of the aura on him.
"Hancock, you better come out, otherwise I'm going to break in."
"Who is making such a loud noise and disturbing my rest?"
Following the sound, Hancock walked out of the cabin, and behind her, followed the two sisters with the Snake-Snake Fruit.
Walking out of the cabin, Hancock saw the navy in front of her.
For a moment, Hancock felt the hairs on her body stand up.
The two sisters were also startled and their bodies were shaking slightly.
But they still remember that they met this man on the Shambaudie Islands when they were first released by Tiger.
The aura of this navy man at that time made them feel fear.
Fortunately, at that time, the man did not come to arrest them, he just looked at them and left.
Seeing the looks of the three sisters, Xia Zheteng knew that the little pressure he had put on them in the Sabaody Islands had taken effect, so he said, "Long time no see, Hancock."
"Are you here to arrest us?" Although Hancock was afraid, she still asked with all her might, and at the same time she was mentally prepared.
The opponent is very strong, but that was all in the past. Now that I have mastered the power of the Sweet-Sweet Fruit, maybe I can petrify the opponent, and then I will win.
"I'm not that boring. I'm just here on behalf of the World Government and the Navy to invite you to join the Shichibukai."
"Hmph, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are nothing more than lackeys who have to obey the orders of the navy. I will not join them."
"Oh, are you going to refuse?"
"Yes, I refuse to join the Shichibukai."
Xia Zheteng didn't say anything else, but slowly drew out his Xia Jiqie and said, "In this case, I can only beat you until you are convinced."
As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers on the ship gathered around again.
"You guys stand back." Hancock frowned.
The people under her command were no match for this man at all. It seemed that she and her sisters had to fight together.
Sandasonia and Marigorude also stepped forward, ready to fight.
Xia Zheteng snorted coldly and rushed forward.
"Sweet and sweet wind." Hancock made her hands into a heart shape and used the power of her fruit to cover Xia Zheteng.
Xia Zheteng immediately stuck to his original intention. After those heart-shaped marks passed, Xia Zheteng did not change at all, and now he was already close.
"Hancock, do you really think you can petrify me?"
Xia Jiqie raised it high and chopped it down towards Hancock.
Hancock was stunned, it was the first time she saw her sweet and sweet wind, it had no effect on people, the problem was a man.
So I couldn’t accept it for a while.
At this moment, the long knife above his head had already chopped down.
Hancock and the other two sisters had no choice but to use armament domineering and defend with all their might.
When a loud noise was heard, the entire Perfume Serpent sank a little.
The two snakes pulling the boat felt the great terror on the boat's arms behind them and shrank their necks, not daring to move.
Hancock was knocked flying and finally hit the cabin heavily before she stopped.
The two sisters were in a similar situation, but because they had guarded against Xia Zheteng's attack in advance, they only took a few steps back and stabilized themselves.
But even so, the two were horrified, because in this attack, it was obvious that Xia Zheteng did not use his full strength.
It took them so much effort to guard against such an attack. If the opponent really used all his strength, wouldn't they be dead?
For a moment, there was silence on the Serpent.
Hancock also turned over and looked at Xia Zheteng, this time with complete fear in her eyes.
Just like they thought of the Celestial Dragons.
However, what the Celestial Dragons left on them were psychological scars.
However, Xia Zheteng is terrifying in terms of strength.
Hancock forced herself to remain calm. The Nine Snakes Pirates were all led by her. If she showed weakness in the end, how could she lead the team in the future?
"Can we go back and discuss it?" Hancock said immediately when he saw Xia Zheteng was about to attack.
Xia Zheteng said, "Oh!", put away the knife, and said calmly: "That's entirely possible. Three days should be enough. Give me an answer in three days. Otherwise, I don't mind going to the Amazon Lily."
After saying that, Xia Zheteng used the Moon Step again to leave and returned to the navy battleship.
Hancock gritted her teeth, what a domineering aura. With such a person in the navy, the Kingdom of Women would definitely not be able to defeat him. However, it would be better to go back and discuss it.
Soon, the Perfume Serpent passed by the warship.
The naval soldiers standing on the deck had their eyes bulging with anger and their hearts were about to beat out of their chests.
Only He and Xia Zheteng stood at the bow, unmoved.
"She didn't use her fruit power on you?" asked Crane.
“I used it, but it didn’t work.”
"How do you restrain the opponent's ability? If possible, I hope you can teach it to the navy soldiers."
Xia Zheteng smiled bitterly, pointed back and said, "I can teach them, but even if I teach them, I'm afraid they won't be able to learn. Lieutenant General He, look at their character."
He looked at the soldiers who could hardly control themselves, and finally sighed. He was right. They had such bad character.
Chapter 102 East Sea Windmill Village
He couldn't help but look at Xia Zheteng again. This kid is really good, with strong abilities and a strong character.
There is hope for the future of the Navy.
Hancock did not let them wait for more than three days. She came the next day to inform them that she was willing to become one of the Shichibukai.
There was no way, her ability was cracked and she lost an important means.
In addition, the Amazon Lily place has been found, and the navy can come and surround it at any time.
If a real fight came, Hancock knew she would definitely lose.
"Major General Xia Zheteng, it was because of your invitation that I joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea."
"Thank you very much." Xia Zheteng replied indifferently.
Women, ah, this is exactly the effect they want.
Xia Zheteng had no intention of subduing the empress.
Hancock is still quite powerful. If one day she falls out with the navy, she can turn against them at any time if there is no one in the navy to restrict her.
This is exactly the result Xia Zheteng wanted. Now the navy is completely suppressing Hancock by himself.
The news of the Seven Warlords of the Sea soon spread across the sea.
The Empress of the Kingdom of Women became a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. The World Government was very happy, but the pirates were not happy.
They have also heard about the Empress's strength, so it would be better for them to stay away from Daughter Island in the future.
Finish the work and call it a day.
Marinford, after Xia Zheteng came back, he first went to see Zhan Guo.
After saluting, seeing Garp standing next to him, Xia Zheteng laughed and said, "Big Senbei, how is Xiao Miguo's injury?"
Zhan Guo glared at Xia Zheteng hatefully. This kid is addicted to playing, right?
Zhan Guo now holds the rank of marshal. If we only talk about the relationship between superiors and subordinates, Xia Zheteng would be punished by Zhan Guo for any disrespect in front of him, let alone joking with him.
