Chapter 251: Fashion


    Strictly speaking, most of the marines are actually opposing the existence of the Shichibukai. For a very simple reason, that is, the Shichibukai are recognized as powerful and furious Pirates. Their existence conflicts with the marines principle. Pursuing absolute justice, fighting against all pirates was originally their responsibility and obligation. As a result, the emergence of the Shichibukai system meant that the Marines and these Pirates joined forces.


    The stronger their sense of justice, the more dissatisfied with this system they be


    However, there is nothing they can do about it, the Shichibukai system was determined by the World Government. They are the rulers after all, and the marines are only subject to jurisdiction. They must obey the World Government. For Shichibukais decision, they had to live with it and make suggestions at most


    Now that the World Government are aware of the danger of the Dragon Hunters, and determined to reduce their hostility, so they stood on the side of the Celestial Dragons and nned to use the position of Shichibukai to pull Ian into their side. Sengoku was very upset about this, but he had to follow orders.


    Sengoku is getting old, he is about to retire, but he doesnt want to watch the Whitebeard and the guys from the same generation keep sailing the sea carefree He feels that the Whitebeard Pirates is his responsibility, and he must eliminate the danger of the whitebeard pirates while he is still in the position of Fleet Admiral, so he cant allow any mistakes in his n.


    What Sengoku is most worried about right now is the connection between the Dragon Hunter pirate and Whitebeard Pirates. If Ian was allowed to join Shichibukai, that may disrupt his n.


    So he had to y a little trick and try to convince the other Shichibukai that hes not worthy of such a title


    In Sengokus opinion, this guy called Ian is likely to be disapproved by other Shichibukai, because if they put strength aside, Ian has a weak point, that is, age.


    The current Shichibukai members are mostly between 30 and 40 years old. Their fame and prestige have been gradually umted over time. Even the youngest one, Pirate Empress, is now 28 years old. In contrast, Ian is a 19-years-old boy, and has advanced a lot in a short period, so that will make it difficult to integrate with the rest of them.


    Sengoku was going to rely on this to convince them. In his view, as long as the current Shichibukai members collectively oppose it, plus the Marines opinion, the World Government may have some scruples and eventually revoke this decision.


    After returning to the Marine Headquarters, Marineford, Sengoku immediately sent people to find Kuma, and at the same time, he personally wrote the consultation letters, asking for the opinion of the other Shichibukai far away.


    When Sengoku kept thinking about the wording and finallypleted the consultation letters, then sending them with Carrier Bats (Carrier Bat is a message delivery animal of the World Government to the pirates, So far in the series, two carrier bats have appeared), after that, Kuma came to Sengokus office.


    Because of the cooperative with the Marine Science Force, Kuma has the closest rtionship with the world government and the Marines, which made it easy to contact him, most of the time


    Holding his thick book in his arms, Kuma sat down in a chair in Sengokus office, then he opened the book and kept on reading, without asking why he was brought here


    Kuma has always been very silent around Sengoku, so he was not surprised, and asked him: Would you like a cup of tea?


    Okay! Kuma said without raising his head.


    After Sengoku sent his subordinates to bring two cups of tea, he sat down opposite Kuma and said, There is something I want to discuss with you, its about the Dragon Hunter Pirate Group


    Do you want me to withdraw my position and let the neer take it? Kuma closed the book, and said.


    No, exactly the opposite! Sengoku shook his head, and said: I want you to object to this matter Ian, the captain of the dragon hunters, shouldnt be a Shichibukai.


    Its none of my business! Kuma said in his low voice: This is what the World Government decided. I cant oppose it. When they invited Fire Fist Ace to join the Shichibukai, the World Government wanted me to quit. I didnt have any saying in the matter!


    Sengoku was a bit annoyed: Damn it, Kuma! Have you lost your mind because of this body transformation? If Ian joins the Shichibukai, then you are the one that is most likely to be reced, are you really willing to give up your position as a Shichibukai?


    Shichibukais position will no longer be important, when I reached the final agreement with Vegapunk! Kuma said: When the transformation is over, I will lose consciousness, then my Shichibukais title wont have any meaning


    After that, Kuma stood up, took his book, and bowed down to Sengoku. If there is nothing else, then Im leaving!


    This time, Sengoku found nothing to say, Kumas attitude was totally unexpected. He originally thought that Kuma might be the one with the fiercest opposition, because the World Government wanted Ian to join the Shichibukai by taking his position


    How could he know the real rtionship between Kuma and Ian? In fact, this was nned a long time ago it was manipted secretly by the revolutionary army!


    To be a Great Pirate worthy of the Shichibukais rank was the purpose from the beginning. And thats what Kuma did too. He became Shichibukai because it was a quest that Dragon gave him. Now, since he has sessfully contacted Vegapunk, Kumas purpose can be said to have been achieved. His title as Shichibukai became meaningless


    However, the Revolutionary Armys mole inside the marines cant be lost so after discussing with Dragon, Kuma decided to let Ian, his subordinate in the Revolutionary Army, take his position.


    Even in order to protect Ian and enable him toplete the n smoothly, during the Smis battle, the leader of the revolutionary army, Dragon even quietly came to Smis. He nned to help Ian if he couldnt handle the attack of the two admirals. But fortunately, because of the unexpected appearance of the Whitebeard Pirates, the marines were forced to retreat.


    In order to prevent any suspicions about Ians identity, Dragon waited to thest moment before acting


    Now, the Celestial Dragons cant wait any longer. Kuma was the one who nned all of this, making Ian his sessor, therefore, he wasnt going to hinder his own operation. How can he listen to Sengokus words and agree to such a thing?


    Since he left like this, he had made it clear that he would not object to this matter. Sengokus headache got stronger, he could only pin his hope on the other members


    In the following week, Sengokus consultation letters reached the hands of the six remaining members


    On the Calm Belt, Amazon Lily, it was midday, and a bell rang across the city.


    All the women got flustered and rushed out of their houses and the stores, but they all left the area near the castle in an orderly manner, because the citizens knew that the Snake Princess was going to take a bath.


    While staying outside the city, these women were not bored. They used this time waiting for the Princess to finish her bath tomunicate with their friends.


    On Amazon Lily, all these women have a snake apanying them. These snakes are the mostmon partner/pet of these citizens, which help them in normal life matters and battles. These snakes are indispensable for these women.


    However, after a close look, everyone can notice that there is something different with these women, they were wearing a unique garment, that is


    Stockings!


    Typically, these Kuja warriors seem to have no fear of walking around in skimpy outfits or even bathing naked in public. In the past, it was verymon that their bright and clean long legs were exposed all the time. But nowadays, no matter how beautiful, ugly, thin, fat, tall, or short, they all wear silk stockings of various colors, and most of their topics are around these stockings.


    Only one person can make a kind of clothing on the entire ind be a trend


    Thats right, thats Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock!


    When she came back from herst voyage, Amazon Lilys residents found that their favorite Princess was wearing this thing called stockings. So they began to follow her fashion one after another. However, because this unique garment was rare on Amazon Lily, it has be extremely scarce at one time. Recently, when the Kuja Pirates went out to plunder materials, they robbed one new raw material besides grain, ore, and gunpowder, which was silk to make these stockings


    But no matter who or how they wear it, the whole Ind agreed that the most beautiful and attractive woman wearing stockings was the Snake Princess!


    The female warriors were chatting enthusiastically about the color of the stockings she wore in thest two days. While they were chatting, they didnt notice that a small ck spot was flying to the pce at the top of the cliff


    In this pce, there is a huge bathtub, filled with steaming water, a breathtakingly beautiful body was soaking in the bath, and her ck hair was scattered on the water surface, which looked very supple.


    Boa Hancock was taking a bath, while prohibiting her nationals from getting close to the castle in order to prevent them from seeing the ve mark on her back. However, while she was still enjoying the warm water, a bat broke in through the window.


    The messenger bat carrying a letter was very unlucky. As soon as he broke in, he alerted Boa Hancock. A Kiss Bullet hit its body, which immediately turned the bat into a stone statue and fell from the air smashing into pieces!


    This bat that broke in made Boa Hancock annoyed and angry. However, just when she was considering whether to make her people start killing all the bats on the Ind, she found the letter beside the poor guy


    With a ssh of water, Boa Hancock stood up from the bath. His beautiful figure, perfectly curved, was revealed at this moment. In the looming vapor, her body was even more fascinating.


    Walking out of the bath, Hancock picked up the letter. When he saw the Marines mark on it, her expression darkened.


    Although she was a Shichibukai, Hancock doesnt like the Marines. Now a letter from them dared to disturb her bathing, which is an unforgivable sin.


    At first, she wanted to throw it away before even reading it, but when she looked at the broken bat, she had a strong pulse, she remembered something, and quickly opened the letter.


    After reading Sengokus consultation letter, Hancock couldnt help crying out with joy: its him! He Is he really going to be invited to be Shichibukai? [ If you liked the chapter and want to read more, feel free to join my <strong>PATREON</strong> page and find 40 more chapters]
