"To actually come here from the New World in just one day?!"
Seeing the rapidly approaching Red Force, Koby shouted in disbelief.
Jin, however, remained extremely calm.
During the Summit War, hadn't the Red Hair Pirates been fighting Kaido in the New World one day, and arrived at Marineford the next?
He seriously suspected that the Red Force was equipped with some kind of rocket booster.
Otherwise, how the hell does it move so fast?
"Boa Hancock! What is the meaning of this!? Are you planning to abandon your Warlord title?"
Sentomaru took the large axe from his back, furiously shouting.
"My attack just now was aimed at the Red Hair Pirates. It was merely a mistake that it hit your location."
Hancock, standing at the bow of the Perfume Yuda, brushed the black hair near her ear in a princess style, her face full of disdain.
Hearing Hancock's explanation, Jin almost laughed out loud.
'Damn it, can an attack miss by that much?'
'Pushing the wrong angle, is that it?'
Sentomaru's face darkened completely.
After all, during the Summit War, this woman loved to launch indiscriminate attacks, hitting both Marines and pirates alike.
She even destroyed several of his Pacifistas.
Sentomaru strongly suspected that Hancock had divided loyalties, but he had no proof.
"So... so beautiful..."
Even though they were also women, Konan and the other two girls were stunned by Hancock's beauty.
'Could there really be such a stunning creature in this world?'
"Garp-san, Rayleigh, he-"
At that moment, Helmeppo shouted a reminder.
Hearing this, Garp turned to look.
He saw that Rayleigh, whose chains had been severed by the sword slash, now had his hands covered in Armament Haki.
With a wrench, he broke the handcuffs restraining Hatchan's hands.
"Capture them!"
Garp barked sternly.
"Hatchan, stand behind me."
Rayleigh shielded Hatchan, kicked away a charging marine, and snatched the katana that fell from the Marine's hands.
Although not as good as his own sword, it would serve as a decent temporary replacement.
"You are my savior. Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully you."
The sword-wielding Rayleigh gave Hatchan a reassuring look.
Hearing Rayleigh's words, Jin found it genuinely laughable.
'It's not okay for others to bully him.'
'But it's fine if he bullies others, is that it?'
"Cover Rayleigh-san!"
The Red Force was still hundreds of meters away from the shore, but many of the Red Hair Pirates' main crew members had already leaped down, landing on Sabaody Archipelago.
Despite their small numbers, it felt as if the thousand or so Marines were being surrounded by these dozen-plus key officers of the Red Hair Pirates.
"Nee-san, let us depart."
On the other side, aboard the Perfume Yuda, Sandersonia requested instructions from Hancock.
They had also come looking for an opportunity to rescue Rayleigh.
Unexpectedly, they encountered the Red Hair Pirates along the way.
After a brief discussion, it was decided that the Kuja Pirates would provide cover, while the Red Hair Pirates would serve as the main rescue force.
However, after a quick observation, the only one worth being cautious about on the Marine side was Garp.
Coupled with the fact that Rayleigh was now free from his restraints, the Kuja Pirates' assistance should no longer be necessary.
Furthermore, if they continued to meddle in this affair and aroused the government's suspicion, Hancock's Warlord title might be revoked.
Hancock pondered for a few seconds and agreed it made sense.
She raised her hand, preparing to order the crew to set sail back to Amazon Lily.
However, they had forgotten one person.
An outsider who did not belong to this world.
"Who said you could leave?"
Boom… Whoosh!
Accompanying the teasing, mocking voice, a wall of black flames rose, enveloping the sea area for miles around.
Dark Flame Formation!
It's a massive fire wall, easily over ten meters tall.
The two giant sea snakes propelling the Perfume Yuda, upon seeing these black flames, shrank back in fear.
No matter how the Kuja Pirates' navigator issued commands, they did not dare to charge through.
Unless the ship could fly or dive, passing through was impossible.
Garp: "This is Ace's... No, it's different!"
Ben Beckman: "This is... the power of the Mera Mera no Mi!?"
Hancock: "These flames can actually burn on the sea?!"
Over ninety percent of the people present had participated in the Summit War.
Naturally, they recognized Ace's techniques.
But this was completely different.
At the very least, Ace's flame couldn't achieve such an exaggerated scale, let alone black flames that could burn on the surface of the sea.
"He's the one who defeated Rayleigh-san..."
Shanks's gaze also locked tightly onto Jin.
To be honest, he found it hard to believe when he read the newspaper.
Even though Rayleigh was nearly eighty, and his physical abilities would inevitably decline, being defeated by a boy who looked no older than fifteen was simply too fantastical.
Suddenly, Jin's figure vanished from his original spot, instantly flashing to Hancock's side on the Perfume Yuda.
'So fast!'
The words flashed in the minds of the various experts present: Shanks, Rayleigh, Garp, and others.
"You..."
Hancock had just started to speak when Jin pressed his right elbow against her slender waist.
In the next second, he hoisted Hancock over his shoulder.
His figure vanished again, reappearing on the Thousand Sunny.
"You... you brute! Release me!"
Hancock, having reacted, shouted angrily.
"He really is here to kidnap women by force..."
Konan and the other two girls watched, stunned.
Before they set out, Obito had asked Jin if he had any goals for this trip.
Jin had directly replied, "To kidnap innocent women."
At the time, they thought he was joking.
But it turns out, he was serious.
"Girls, this is a world without rules! There are no Ninja regulations or village rules to bind you here! With power, you can possess everything!"
Jin carried Hancock on one shoulder, his hand brazenly resting on her curvaceous rear.
He shouted, as if possessed by the spirit of a certain mustachioed figure, "Whatever you see that you want, just take it! Revel to your heart's content! Enjoy yourselves fully!"
Feeling the astonishing softness transmitted to his palm, Jin couldn't resist giving it another squeeze.
'Excellent!'
'This journey is truly excellent!!'
'So high I'm feeling really great!!!'
