The next day, Amazon Lily—an island inhabited solely by women— ruled by Boa Hancock, one of the Shichibukai, and also the headquarters of the Kuja Pirates.
Trees stood tall, the greenery was lush, wild beasts roared, and the scenery was quite pleasant.
However, the island was located in the Calm Belt, a sea area that served as an excellent habitat for Sea Kings, so its beautiful appearance did not guarantee safety.
A group of scantily clad women were carrying a huge wild beast they had just hunted, happily making their way back.
The island contained only women, and outside there was the Calm Belt as a natural moat, so there was no need to be particular about clothing—almost everyone wore bikinis!
"Sisters, this big wild boar is enough for us to eat for several days."
"We're tired of eating meat. When can we eat some delicious food from outside?"
"You! Don't think such thoughts. Be careful—the Empress might kick you out!"
"Hmph! The Empress wouldn't do that! She's the best Empress."
When they reached the entrance, they suddenly found a man standing before them! That's right, a man! Muscular, tall, mysterious!
"You... you, you, you, who are you?! How did you get here?!"
"A man! How can there be a man on our island?!"
"Sisters, come quickly! There's a man here!"
In an instant, all the women started chattering, as if they had seen the most novel thing in the world, surrounding Ron, who had just arrived on the island, completely.
However, they immediately notified the Empress's three sisters!
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't touch me randomly, little girls." Ron quickly took a step back, avoiding a grab.
This made the women of the Daughter Country even more curious and excited!
"Ah! It's a man who can talk!"
"Sisters, catch him! Don't let him run away!"
"That's right! All men should be captured!"
Saying this, these women were about to rush forward and tie Ron up.
"What a hassle." Ron shook his head, and Conqueror's Haki was silently released!
Buzz!
Everyone's steps halted, and they felt an invisible mountain descend from the sky, pressing down on their heads!
Before long, their foreheads were covered in large beads of sweat, and even standing became incredibly difficult!
Just then, an angry roar came from inside the main gate. "Impudent! Who dares to act against my Kuja Pirates!"
"Big Sister, let me take care of this guy!"
Subsequently, they saw two snakes, one green and one yellow, rush out from the gate. Their snake eyes were filled with killing intent, and they harbored deep hatred for men!
"Sandersonia, Marigold, have you two sisters forgotten me?" A calm voice echoed in the air, causing the two figures to suddenly freeze!
Hancock also walked out quickly. Seeing the figure of the man before her, her delicate body trembled violently. "Ro... Ron-sama!!!"
"Our benefactor!"
"It's our benefactor!"
The two sisters shed their transformations and returned to their original forms, running toward Ron!
Hancock saw Ron and ran toward him first. Despite the citizens of the Maiden Island watching, she threw herself into Ron's arms without any hesitation!
This was only because Ron had descended from the sky when she was most helpless and desperate, not only saving her but also giving her the courage to live!
"Ron-sama, have you finally come to see me?" Hancock cried loudly, tears streaming down uncontrollably, soaking Ron's chest. "Seventeen years, I've waited for you for seventeen years..."
Ron was at a loss for words for a moment, not expecting this reaction to actually happen.
It seemed that Hancock had truly fallen in love with him.
However, when he saved Hancock back then, she was only twelve years old. Facing a little girl, he had no other thoughts—he merely saved her conveniently and didn't ask for anything in return.
If it weren't for needing attractive content, perhaps he would never have come here in this lifetime.
"Uh... Hancock, I've been a bit busy lately so..."
"Ah, Ron-sama truly cares about me. Were you just thinking about how to explain to me?" Hancock looked at Ron with affectionate eyes.
Ron was held by Hancock like this, feeling a bit helpless and at a loss, so he could only shamelessly nod. "Yes, I was trying to explain..."
"I knew it," a blush flew across Hancock's pretty face, and she lowered her head shyly, fiddling with her slender fingers. "This is a proposal! I... I'm not ready yet..."
Ron froze for a moment. A proposal?
What is she doing? Stop overthinking!
"No, Hancock, you've misunderstood. I came to see you this time because I need your help."
As soon as she heard he needed help, Hancock's pretty face turned even redder!
"Help, you need my help... Ron-sama truly needs me."
Ron: ???
The two sisters had a look of watching a show, but they still spoke up in time. "Benefactor, we've all seen the expulsion order about you. I said long ago that those Marine guys are a bunch of hypocrites!"
"That's right! If the Marines don't want you, we Amazon Lily want you! From now on, you'll be with us, eating well and living comfortably!"
Hancock was also furious about this matter, her pretty face covered in frost. "Ron-sama, I will definitely stand by your side. I'll go to war with the Marines right now!"
Ron felt a headache coming on and quickly restrained the three sisters' tendency to fight at the drop of a hat. "Let's find a quiet place to talk. I have something good to give you."
Inside the Empress's palace, the moment Ron took out his phone, the three sisters were all stunned.
"Ron-sama, is this the good thing you mentioned?" Boa Sandersonia was the first to speak, her tone carrying a hint of doubt.
"It doesn't look like anything special. Could it be a brick hidden weapon?" Boa Marigold teased.
"I'm also very curious. Ron-sama, tell us quickly." Hancock, on the other hand, looked more expectant, watching the phone in Ron's hand without blinking.
Ron smiled. "This is a phone. You can think of it as a high-tech device."
Saying this, he pressed a button on the side, and the phone screen lit up.
"Oh, this thing glows?" Sandersonia asked in surprise.
"Phone... Is it called a phone because it's a machine held in the hand?" Marigold said thoughtfully.
"It's amazing. What does this thing do?" Hancock leaned closer curiously, clearly intrigued.
Ron then opened TikTok, but unexpectedly, the first video he scrolled to was Morgans' huge bird face!
There was absolutely no filming technique—it was just a direct close-up, incredibly ugly!
It even startled the three sisters.
"Ah! Who is this ugly guy? He scared me to death!" Sandersonia exclaimed.
"A birdman? Ron-sama, how can there be a birdman inside this thing?" Marigold also looked disgusted.
Ron felt a headache again. "Don't worry yet. This is just a video Morgans filmed and uploaded to TikTok, which is why we can see it. If you scroll down, there are my videos too."
But the more Ron scrolled, the bigger his headache became, because after scrolling over a dozen times, he found they were all Morgans' videos!
How many videos did this guy post in one night?
"Alright, let me first explain what TikTok is, and then how to use TikTok and the phone." Ron decided to start with the basics.
The three sisters nodded obediently, listening carefully as Ron explained step by step, and helping them register TikTok accounts.
Afterward, Ron let them explore on their own and asked them to come to him if they didn't understand anything.
Meanwhile, Hancock immediately followed Ron and learned how to send private messages: "Ron-sama ❤️ Hancock." She sent this message over a dozen times and still wasn't satisfied, also liking many videos.
Ron watched the continuous private message notifications popping up on the phone screen, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly, and he shook his head helplessly.
