Chapter 1658 - 1659: Very Satisfied with the Outcome
"I have decided to accept your request and let you become a member of our Nine Snake Pirate Group!" Hancock announced loudly, ignoring the astonishment and voices of the other female soldiers. "But at least tell us your name first."
Ye Lingyun saluted her with a smile and said, "I’m honored to be a member of the Nine Snake Pirate Group. I won’t disappoint the Empress."
Ye Lingyun was also quite satisfied with the outcome of not having to fight the beauties of the Nine Snake Pirate Group upon arriving at the New Continent.
He understood that although Hancock had accepted him despite opposition, she hadn’t truly accepted him. Perhaps they would test him in various ways afterward.
Yet, apart from his origins, Ye Lingyun had nothing to hide. For a rare beauty like Hancock, it’s already too late to love her. How could she be truly harmed?
As he expected, in another small cabin, Sandersonia and Mary Gorod were making one last effort, trying to persuade Hancock not to be fooled by Ye Lingyun.
"Hancock, have you forgotten why we came here? The Navy Headquarters’ tolerance has reached a critical point. This support is very helpful for relieving our pressure. But if outsiders suddenly join and know and leak it, have you thought about the consequences?"
"Alright, don’t say too much! Under the pressure of the Navy, I accept your suggestion, but I never consider it. As for Ye Lingyun, I certainly won’t easily believe him, even if he knows Mo’er.
Mary Gorod suddenly appeared and stopped Ye Lingyun. She wanted to trouble him. Even though he didn’t want to go directly to Hancock’s room, she would find other reasons.
Upon hearing that Ye Lingyun was indeed "on the way," she wouldn’t be polite. She remembered that yesterday she was almost crushed by Ye Lingyun’s strange ability. She learned her lesson.
First, wait for Linglong Half-step to turn around and make a cobra pose.
Ye Lingyun felt somewhat helpless. After Mary Gorod transformed, she really became uglier. But if you want to prove your strength and make the ship’s 9 Snake Soldiers truly admire you, you can only endure.
"Reflect on your arrogance. Don’t think that joining the Nine Snake Pirate Group will make me merciful!"
Mary Gorod moved her gigantic snake body directly in front of Ye Lingyun. Just from her physique, it was easy to see Mary Gorod’s strength was greater.
In fact, Ye Lingyun was not suitable to fight her without directly using Angel Power and suddenly disappeared into another empty space.
"Hmph, very cunning. Let’s see how long you can hide!"
Mary Gorod also knew that even though her attack range would increase after becoming bigger, it wouldn’t be easy to completely block Ye Lingyun, not to mention his strange abilities.
Suddenly she opened her mouth and sprayed green venom. It was not only as toxic as a real cobra’s but also highly corrosive.
As long as Ye Lingyun touched it slightly, it could spread across his whole body! As she said, not even a little leniency was allowed for Ye Lingyun; it’s best to kill him directly.
"Heartless woman." Ye Lingyun’s response seemed more troublesome now.
Regardless of whether Mary Gorod realized he was using his abilities to traverse space or "get through it," as long as his reaction slowed, that would be his demise.
Ye Lingyun didn’t want to clumsily dodge her on the spot and began to flexibly utilize all the space and obstacles on the ship.
Although Mary Gorod kept attacking and seemed lucky enough to kill Ye Lingyun, she was always standing on the transferred side.
The big snake kept coiling and quickly tied itself into a knot!
Even though her body was flexible and alert enough to detect problems early, twitching the snake’s tail didn’t fall for it. But her patience had been greatly worn out.
In her impatient mood, her attack became indifferent, as anything blocking her from attacking Ye Lingyun would be dissolved by her solution!
Suddenly, Ye Lingyun changed his usual flexible tactics and stood firmly at the ship’s rail, no longer paying attention to Mary Gorod’s attack.
As the third person of the Nine Snake Pirate Group, she couldn’t bear to be looked down on by a man.
One after another, she spewed solutions, about to spray onto him. But who knew Ye Lingyun lightly waved his hand, "cutting" the space, making these solutions unable to break through the space barrier.
Because "space" itself is a shield, these solutions couldn’t dissolve the space.
"Pay for your arrogance, Mary Gorod!" All of Mary Gorod’s hairs suddenly ignited, transforming into a fierce Fire Snake, and the entire snake body charged towards Ye Lingyun’s position.
His space power could block the solutions with lesser impact, but it couldn’t block his own impact. As long as a powerful force opened some cracks in his sealed space, the Snake God’s flames would exploit the gap to ignite his body into ashes!
Ye Lingyun indeed struck a pose facing a significant foe, pushing his hands forward simultaneously. However, Mary Gorod accelerated, showed a hint of "betrayer’s" smile directly from the initial news.
"Bang!"
Mary Gorod couldn’t control her giant body and crashed into where he was standing. She was about to flexibly twist the snake’s body and find the appearance location, then rush forward but realized the deck suddenly broke!
This was the very edge of the ship, and she was falling into the sea along with the deck debris.
Earlier, when Mary Gorod was eager to spray Ye Lingyun to death, she didn’t notice many main connecting points of the deck had been riddled with holes.
Afterward, Ye Lingyun deliberately stood still, daringly blocking her solution and angering her to crash into him. It was like letting her set a trap for herself and then drag her into it, playing along with Mary Gorod.
"No!" Certainly, Mary Gorod knew the seriousness of the situation. She quickly swung the snake’s tail, attempting to grasp something on the ship, holding onto her falling body.
"Oh
Among the many Navy leaders, Du Bin didn’t have the habit of smoking cigars.
His character was serious, but he understood the figures he faced could not be strictly dealt with. With her willfulness, provoking her would cause conflicts between both sides.
However, he didn’t know that a person with his character tried to soften his big picture, but it seemed quite awkward. It was more like provocations.
Hancock coldly snorted, ignoring his "hello". This arrogant attitude was taken for granted by all Navy and even Du Bin.
"Well, we’re delighted to have Lord Hancock come as scheduled. As the representative of the Navy, let’s explain the sea area you are responsible for."
Still, he found himself unsuitable for friendly and intimate talks, so he directly touched on the topic, making him feel comfortable.
"Hmph! What’s the plan? Just for the ancient weapon. We go directly to Alabasta. Anyone daring to make ideas will be caught. What precautions does the Navy have to worry about?"
"Well..." The green streak on Du Bin’s forehead jumped up, a trace of coldness in his eyes. "What if the Navy Headquarters wants to know some ancient weapon?"
"Oh? It depends on your ’understanding’ time. As long as you’re not angered, we can still cooperate."
Ye Lingyun noticed the deep smile on Hancock’s face and understood in his heart.
As for the Navy’s intentions, Hancock had already figured it out. Beneath her capricious appearance, her mind was extremely cautious.
Perhaps it could also be said, possessing unparalleled beauty and mighty power, "capriciousness" was her best disguise and protection layer!
