Chapter 172 The Adventures of the Three Hancock Sisters

New world, somewhere on an unknown island.

The cold wind howled on this winter island, and occasionally snowflakes fell.

The strangeness of the climate in the new world was profoundly reflected at this moment. Although it was not winter yet, it was already like the depth of winter here, with the temperature reaching minus twenty or thirty degrees. People didn't want to be outside, so they all headed inside the house.

O. Henry's Tavern, as the only place where you can buy alcohol on this island, is more lively than usual at this moment. There were sixty or seventy people crammed into the small space, and most of them were men with broad shoulders and round waists. They were drinking and carousing in the light, roaring and shouting, and the sound they made could still be heard quite clearly even from hundreds of meters away.

Among the noisy crowd, there were two guys with extremely special temperaments. They sat quietly at the corner of the counter, talking and laughing in low voices, with the volume controlled very softly, perfectly blending into the noisy and lively atmosphere nearby.

"I didn't expect that I wasn't even ranked among the top thirty in the world. It's a shame I always thought I could be ranked among the top three! Hahahaha!"

The red-haired young man on the left smiled. His smile was silly, but very friendly, giving people a hearty and warm feeling, "Speaking of which, Beckman, what's your ranking?"

"91,"

The young man named Beckman on the right had a cigar in his mouth and puffed away while replying, "It's pretty much what I expected."

"Tsk, you are actually only 91. It seems that this StrongWorld is almost full of strong people..."

"That's for sure. After all, these 5,000 people, including us, are all carefully selected by this clan of phone bugs... Even monsters like Whitebeard can only be ranked 7th, and Katakuri, known as the highest masterpiece of the Charlotte family, even ranked 21st..."

"Whitebeard? Katakuri? These two names turned out to be them,"

Shanks suddenly realized, "Indeed, 'family is the most precious treasure' best fits the character of the old man Whitebeard, and 'favorite donuts' does indeed correspond to Katakuri's preferences spread in the new world..." …”

"That's right,"

Beckman nodded, "By the way, the "Phoenix" ranked behind you should be Marco, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the "Eagle Eye" next to Marco should be It’s Mihawk, the swordsman who has become famous recently…”

"Mihawk? That young swordsman who is said to have never been defeated in Paradise?"

"Yes, that's him."

"He should be entering a new world soon. Tsk, I really want to try fighting him. Hahaha. This is the so-called instinct of a swordsman!"

"So I said I don't understand you swordsmen..."

"Speaking of which, Beckman, I think we, the red-haired pirates, need to compete for the number one spot!"

Shanks suddenly said seriously.

"The title of No. 1? Well, it will indeed help our pirate group to increase its visibility and reputation... It's rare that you have a good suggestion, Captain."

"Well, although there is this reason, the reason why I want us to strive for first place is not because of this."

"…On the other side of the sea is Ravdru?"

"That's right, on the other side of the sea is Ravdru!"

Shanks shook the wine glass in his hand, and the pale golden liquid reflected a psychedelic color under the dim light of the bar.

"...Shanks, do you know what that mysterious reward is?! Is it really related to the final island where Roger, the Pirate King, once arrived?!"

Even a wise man like Ben Beckman, who "does not change even after the Red Earth Continent collapses", can't help but lose his temper after realizing that the so-called mysterious reward may point to the highest goal of all pirates, Rafdru.

"No, I don't know, Beckman,"

Shanks shook his head, "But I do know that Captain Roger once lost a permanent pointer pointing to Rafdrew..."

"!!!"

…

The week after the "Decisive Battle at the Forbidden City - Across the Sea is Ravdru" event and the "World Ranking" was released, it was undoubtedly extremely difficult for the 5,000 StrongWorld closed beta players - these were wavered The "Chosen Ones" carefully selected by Rusalino each have their own special features in the real world. They are either strong men, powerful nobles, or important players in the pirate world who will make great achievements in the future... In short, no one will easily accept that they fall behind the other 4999 people. Even Bucky, who is in last place, covets the first place.

Moreover, many of these 5,000 people have begun to realize that this game is not just a simple game, but may lead to the ultimate secret of the world...

This mentality has caused the competition among these 5,000 people to become extremely fierce - according to statistics from Porusalino's backend data, during this week, the average time each account was online every day was one more than before. Hour.

Moreover, due to the rules of team points bonus set by Porusalino, among the 5,000 people, except for people like Hawkeye who have few friends in real life, everyone else chose to form a team to play the game. Get more points.

And when most people choose to form a team, the gaming experience of single-player players will be relatively poor, and the chance of collision between different teams will also be greatly increased - for example, on the second day after the event starts, waves The "Navy Headquarters Strategy Game" team composed of Rusalino, Sakaski, Marshal Sengoku, Vice Admiral Garp, and Kuzan ran into the five-man team composed of the Whitebeard Pirates three times in succession.

Pirates and navy have an absolutely antagonistic relationship in reality, and the game is no exception. Moreover, due to the special nature of the Whitebeard Pirates, in reality, although the navy hates them and regards them as a formidable enemy, it is difficult to attack them or confront them head-on.

But it's different in the StrongWorld game - there is basically no need to consider the real-life consequences of the duel in the game, so both sides have the only purpose of teaching the opponent a lesson and winning.

Even though Porusalino played a lot of MOBA games before time traveling, he was still shocked by the intensity of these three games: both sides basically used up the "Thousand-Year Dragon Armor" (Resurrection Armor), and the duel Time is running out even more. But in the end, his navy team was still superior and won the three-game showdown.

And if in the past, such a victory in the game would make Marshal Sengoku and others feel particularly happy, then now, "Victory in the game means adding a lot of points, which means it is more likely to win the Revealed Lafdrew." Secret Mysterious Reward”—such an equation has penetrated into the hearts of all of them.

Therefore, the Warring States Marshal, who led the Navy Headquarters to "fight" against the Whitebeard Pirates and achieved major strategic results for the first time, simply no longer suppressed his inner excitement and joy, and directly released himself, publicly provoking:

[Everyone] My subordinates are really too worrying (Marshal Sengoku):

"Raff Drew and Onepiece are real! It's a pity that they seem to be closer to our navy, Newgate~ Gu la la la la!"

The Warring States Marshal's words were full of ridicule. Suddenly, the marshal's office in the Marinevando Fortress building was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Porusalino was laughing so hard that he almost couldn't help himself - he remembered the first half of this sentence very clearly, it was clearly what Whitebeard himself said in the future war on top of the original plot!

The famous line was said by the opponent in advance...

…

Facts have proved that although they have never been exposed to the Internet and online games, the creativity of people in the Pirate World is quite good - not only many internal testers spontaneously played the tower pushing game into a "big brawl", An extremely bad "surrogate beating" incident occurred in the Holy Land of Mariejoia.

The boss of this "surrogate fight" incident was St. Stepide, one of the world's nobles, and the agent he hired was a CP0 agent who was responsible for protecting him and was known for his knowledge, sex, and domineering.

As the most well-known Kaizi group in the entire pirate world, the world's nobles naturally became the internal beta members selected by Porusalino - after all, most of them are stupid and have a lot of money, and when they buy things, they only buy expensive ones. Buy the right one and be topical in its own right.

St. Stepide is one of the world nobles chosen by Porusalino. However, unlike his compatriot Leander Palace, a game master and wise politician, St. Stepide is in StrongWorld. His performance is just like his name - Stupid.

In a ten-game showdown, the Scythian Saint would lose at least nine games, and eight of these nine games would be because he was too stretched.

Can the majestic nobles of the world, the descendants of the great Creator, endure this kind of anger of losing again and again? Of course, that was unbearable. Stepid Saint could not wait to follow the phone bug and let all his teammates who couldn't help him win take bullets.

But unfortunately, he is not Porusalino. He can only think about "beating people along the network cable" and then vent his anger on the slaves around him.

Play the game - lose - punish the slave - play the game again - lose again - punish the slave again... This cycle continues until the world rankings are opened.

Looking at his world ranking of 4995, St. Stepide finally couldn't bear it anymore - why could his noble world noble only be ranked 4995? ! And the Fool Saint next door is ranked ten places higher than him? !

The angry and unwilling Saint Stepipede vented his resentment by brutally abusing slaves on the one hand, and on the other hand, he gave his CP0 guard the task of improving his ranking or else being fed to mermaids.

How do these CP0 guards know how to improve his ranking? They have never even experienced a StrongWorld showdown. In desperation, CP0, who had the lowest status among the guards, fought for St. Peter with the belief that he would die.

This fight was incredible - CP0, who is good at seeing, hearing, and coloring Haki, unexpectedly discovered that he was very good at playing this game. After encountering an enemy, he could always rely on his excellent seeing, hearing, and coloring Haki to react first, and rely on He uses small movements to avoid the enemy's non-directional moves... His body has been trained in various ways, and he can control it almost as easily as he thinks...

In the first game, win; in the second game, win; in the third game, lose; in the fourth game, win...

When the CP0 guard reported the situation to St. Stepide, he had actually helped St. Stepide win seven games and only lost one!

This time, not only did he not have to lose his life, the CP0 guard also received awards and praises from St. Stepid, and urged him to keep up his efforts.

It's a pity that St. Stepide's ranking rocketed up like a rocket. This situation only lasted for half a day and ended - Porusalino noticed the abnormal performance of this account.

After taking a brief look at the recent record and game performance of this account, and combined with the previous situation of this account, Porusalino immediately concluded that this world noble should have hired a proxy player.

If it were placed in the world before Porusalino's time travel, once the proxy player was discovered by the game operation, then banning the account would definitely be an inevitable punishment - but there are exceptions to everything. Goose Factory has Xinyue members, and StrongWorld also has world nobles. Although they are all players, they are very different from normal players...

Therefore, Porusalino was very decisive... and banned the account of St. Stepide for 100 years!

What? Does a happy member like the World Noble need special treatment?

Sorry, Porusalino was one of the ordinary players before he traveled through time. He has long since despised (envied) such privileged and wealthy players from the bottom of his heart. But now that he has traveled through time and has become the mastermind behind the scenes, he has naturally turned into a serf to take revenge for all the anger and unfair treatment he suffered in his previous life.

Xinyue member? World nobility? A strong one?

Sorry, fair enough! fair! That's damn fair!

As for whether they will give up or anything, Porusalino is not worried at all - as a monopoly, the phone bugs never worry about not having users!

This is indeed the case - after St. Stepide discovered that his account had been banned for 100 years, he first angrily hit the servant closest to him with the musket he carried, and then threw the phone bug away. After entering a fish tank full of piranhas, he finally started thinking about how to create a new StrongWorld account...

There are only 5,000 private beta accounts. This is what the announcement said. Is it possible that he really can only wait for the open beta?

St. Stepide fell into an extremely depressed state. The butler beside him immediately rolled his eyes and stepped forward to flatter him:

"Sir Stepide, don't make yourself unhappy because of this little thing! After all, there are so many things worth your time... I heard that a new batch of slaves have arrived at the slave market. Do you want to go? Buy some slaves to relax?"

"Buying a slave...?"

What the butler said was what St. Stepide was most interested in before the phone bug changed. His eyes could not help but narrow. Due to excessive obesity, his eyes were like two thin slits cut with a knife on his skin, greasy and disgusting.

"Are there any new slaves over there that are worth buying? The fish-people tribe? Or the giant tribe? Or the fur tribe?"

"I heard there are several female slaves from Amazon Lily,"

The housekeeper replied respectfully, "As you know, these slaves come from the Amazon, the daughter country of the Windless Belt, and they are all born warriors. They are extremely difficult to capture and their rarity is also extremely high..."

"Rare slave? I like it!"

St. Stepide only paid attention to the words "extremely rare" said by the butler, and he suddenly became interested, "Go now! I want to buy a slave!"

"As you command!"

The housekeeper couldn't help but laugh - the Celestial Dragons never pay attention to the payment process when buying slaves. They, the housekeepers, can often eat in places where the Celestial Dragons don't notice...

(Same as last time, let’s take 20%...but if you think about it carefully, 25% is pretty good...)

…

Boya Hancock was born on September 2, 1493 in the Hainan calendar. He has just turned nine years old this year. He is a trainee crew member of the Kuja Pirates, the country-protecting pirate group of Amazon Lily, the famous daughter country in the world of pirates. About a week ago, she went out with the pirates for the first time, bringing her two younger sisters with her.

But unfortunately, she was kidnapped by a cunning slave trader on the ship of the Nine Snakes Pirates during her first voyage, along with her two younger sisters.

Although not as rare as mermaid slaves and giant slaves, the female warriors from Nine Snakes are also a very hot commodity in the slave market. The bold slave traders are the kind of warriors who are willing to go through fire and water for high profits. .

Risking their lives, they succeeded this time, and Hancock and his two sisters were sent to the slave auction house in the Chambord Islands.

If normal procedures are followed, they will be purchased by the nobles of this world at the slave auction venue in the Shampoo Islands. However, the owner of the auction house was very discerning - Hancock's outstanding appearance and the unusual wooden civet cat sign hanging around her neck made him think that this little girl and her sisters should be from the Kingdom of Women. important role.

Ordinary female slaves may only be able to sell millions of beli, female slaves from Nine Snakes may be able to sell tens of millions of beli, and female slave sisters with status from Nine Snakes-100 million beli, no. , hundreds of millions of Baileys!

Adhering to the principle of maximizing profits, the owner of the auction house did not remove the wooden civet cat sign around Hancock's neck (to prove his identity), nor did he auction her and her two sisters on the spot, but sent them to this place. The most uniquely located slave market in the world - Mariejoia Slave Market.

"I wonder how much these Draco gentlemen would quote me for my goods... 300 million beli? Or 500 million beli?"

The owner of the Shampoo Slave Auction House thought so.

…

The three Hancock sisters were sent to the Mary Joa slave market in a coma. After their arrival, they were locked in a separate warehouse.

When the effects of the coma drug administered by the slave traders wore off, the three sisters woke up and immediately huddled together in fear.

"Sister, what should I do?"

The youngest sister, orange-haired Marigold, tremblingly grabbed Hancock's clothes, "Can't we go back to Kuja?"

Not only was it impossible to go back - although Hancock had never experienced the life of a slave, Hancock couldn't help but tremble when he thought about the fate of those on the merchant ships who were robbed by the Nine Snakes Pirates.

She was extremely scared, but as a sister, she knew that she had to comfort her two younger sisters who were more scared than herself. Hancock was about to speak when suddenly, the warehouse door was pushed open.

Looking at the man who pushed open the door, his body seemed to block the light seeping in from the door, Hancock's body trembled first, and then a trace of determination and ferocity flashed in his eyes.

"Sonia! Mary! Run!"

I am a sister, and a sister must stand up when in danger!

"Go to hell, you bastard!"

With a scream, Hancock's petite body suddenly lunged forward like a black cat, almost instantly getting close to the body of the man who opened the door. Although he is young, as a Nine Snakes warrior who has received various combat training since childhood, Hancock's combat skills are definitely not bad.

Being petite is sometimes an advantage. Hancock wanted to use this advantage to sweep the visitor to the ground, and then take the opportunity to let his sisters escape.

"As expected of high-end goods from Nine Snakes!"

To Hancock's attack, the man responded with a finger, the index finger of his right hand, raised slightly and moved forward to block it.

"What?"

Hancock's attack stopped instantly, and his body seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall, unable to advance even one centimeter.

"The Celestial Dragons will definitely like it when they still have such vitality after being starved for so long! They like things with strong vitality that can be played with for a long time!"

The man smiled and with a tap of his index finger, Hancock's body was instantly bounced back. He fell heavily to the ground and rolled around for a while before hitting his two sisters.

"Sister! Are you okay?"

"Damn it, is this domineering?!"

The man obviously didn't want the goods to be damaged, so he kept his hand. Hancock was not hurt at all, and he rolled over from the ground and got up.

As a citizen of Kuja, which has the highest level of Haki in the world, and as a trainee crew member of the Protectorate Pirates, Hancock naturally understands what Haki is. So she also knew how powerful this man was in his understatement - this was definitely not a level that the three children could resist.

"With such armed color and domineering strength, you are definitely not an ordinary slave trader. Who are you?!"

"That guy Edward is right, you three are high-end goods from the Daughter Kingdom!"

The man looked at the three sisters as if he were looking at a golden mountain, "Were you in a coma when you came here so you don't know anything? That's fine, this way you can directly accept your fate..."

"What on earth do you mean?!"

Although he was inexplicably scared, Hancock bravely stood in front of his two trembling sisters.

"Then I'll tell you,"

The man laughed pervertedly and said, "This is the center of the world, the Holy Land Marie Joa, not the Chambord Islands where you were before. Here, you will welcome your future masters, the most noble nobles in the world!"

"I am just an ordinary servant who takes care of the goods for the world's nobles. The reason why I am so domineering is just to manage you better..."

"Don't show such a scared expression, just smile~A lifetime of slavery is about to begin~Hahahahahaha!"

The man laughed and left, leaving some food for the three sisters - the price would be affected for the hungry female slaves.

"What should we do, sister? Are we really going to be slaves to the Celestial Dragons for life?"

Sonia was trembling all over. Even they who were far away in the Windless Zone knew a little bit about the cruelty of the Celestial Dragons.

Hancock didn't know what to say, so he subconsciously touched the civet cat wooden sign hanging around his fair neck - it was the amulet her mother had asked her to wear since she was a child, saying that if she If you encounter danger outside, you can touch the wooden sign and pray to the civet cat god Lan Fatty, and then a warrior in human form will come to rescue her.
