CHAPTER 75 LOVE SICK_Canon Fodder

CHAPTER 75 LOVE SICK

 I was escorted down the streets under heavy guard. The Amazon Lily Ind was ratherrge. The ind was in some sort of crater, a town on the side with jungle covering the rest of the ind it was filled with nothing but women and snakes. Every woman had a snake. A real live one, not a futa joke. They used the snakes as weapons somehow and from what I remembered they were all pretty strong.

 The isle of women had supposedly never had a man there. To procreate they would leave the ind on the ship ande back pregnant. Only giving birth to girls for some reason. I told the whole kidnapping men for procreation to Sanji to help get him to join the crew. In the end it had worked too.

 In canon, Luffy was supposed to be thrown to the ind, and Boa Hancock was supposed to fall in love with him. At first I had wanted to sneak in and grab her, but everytime she got close we ended up fighting so I was going to let Luffy have her. She could pine after the one piece obsessed captain all she wanted.

 There were whispers from women in the street as I was escorted. Every girl was basically in a bikini, and they were all shapes and sizes. Tall, short, fat, skinny, giant, whatever. All the colors of the rainbow for hair, they were a sight to see. I could picture a porno centered on the ind. And maybe I could get close to themter, but I needed to get to basta. To win my bet with Nami.

 We began ascending the stairs of therge pce. My view filled with the glorious asses of the guards in front of me. I forgot my own problems for a bit. I walked into the grand hall of the pce and was met by Boa’srge snake. The thing eyed me and turned around heading further into the pce.

 “So, where do I go?” I asked one of my guards as she took up position by the door.

 “This way,” a voice yelled from further in the hall. I headed in the direction of the voice to see one of Boa’s sisters. The one with green hair waved me over. I headed in her direction. Therge faced woman had eaten some sort of snake devil fruit and could turn into one from what I remembered. For an ind full of women they were sure obsessed with snakes.

 I followed and we were soon in the dining hall. Boa sat at the head of the table. Arge spread of food in front of her. She gave me a bored re as I walked in. I rolled my eyes but was soon sitting. Digging into the food it felt like I hadn’t eaten in weeks. Which was probably true since thest real meal I had was when I stowed away on a ship during my run from Reverse Mountain.

 Grabbing food and piling my te up I cleaned it fast enough for Luffy to be proud. Slowing down my consumption I noticed Boa staring at me. “What?” I asked.

 

 “You,” she said, he nose scrunching up as if she smelled something foul. “Have no manners.”

 “Damn, right,” I said. Belching loudly I continued eating but was soon full. My stomach having shrunk I couldn’t fit any more food in. “Okay, where can I sleep, Boa?”

 “Boa, that’s all you call me?” She spat angrily. “My name is Hancock!”

 I realized my mistake. Boa was herst name. The Japanese way of saying things always threw me off. It was just Boa Hancock sounded way better than Hancock Boa. “Sorry, Hancock, where can I get some shut eye? I’m exhausted.”

 She blushed. Turning away she appeared to think. “Will you not talk for a bit, first?” She asked.

 I was starting to wonder if maybe I really did have a chance with her. She had only met me with anger when I talked to her before. I couldn’t remember the term for women that pretended to hate you. Yandere or tsundere. One of those. Maybe she was one of them.

 

 “For a bit,” I said. “As long as you don’t bite my head off.”

 She red at me again. “I will not bite your head off,” she said with all the venom she could. “I simply wish to hear where youe from.”

 “Me? No idea,” I said. Leaning back as I thought about the past of this Weston Watanabe. “I was in a shipwreck a few months back. Lost my memories.”

 

 “Really? But you said you have a crew,” she said.

 

 “I do. The Straw Hat Pirates,” I said. “I joined up with them a few weeks ago.”

 “And you already have a bounty?” Hancock asked. Some of her anger finally leaving.

 “Yeah, I fought this marine. Smoker something or other, in East Blue. He got pretty pissed at me so he put a bounty on me. Then he chased us to Reverse Mountain. I stayed to stall his ship while my crew fled.”

 “Why did they flee?” She asked.

 “We didn’t have a Log Pose,” I admitted. She nodded, understanding. “So I’ve been running on water ever since. I was on my way through the Calm Belt. Hoping I was close to basta when I found you.”

 Hancock frowned. Letting out a sigh she nodded, as ifing to a decision. “I do have to thank you for that.” My eyebrows raised in surprise. She hadn’t hinted at a thank you for thest 3 days. “Only now that we are onnd and safe can I admit how dire that situation could have been.”

 

 “No problem,” I said. “Sucks about your snakes, but it worked out. Are they going to be okay?”

 She nodded. “A few weeks of healing and they should be fine. Although I don’t know what to do about the future.”

 “What do you mean?” I asked.

 “I mean, how will we stop from being attacked again? In all of our time we have been attacked by sea kings on 4 asions. But we have been lucky. The others we were able to scare off. This one…”

 “Why not do what the marines do?” I asked. “Coat the bottom of your ship with seastone.”

 “I wish we could,” Hancock admitted. “But the marines guard the secret of where they mine the stones.”

 I thought back. Pulling up my One Piece World Store I found Seastone in one of the options. It wasn’t terribly expensive. I bought it. The fist sized stone soon appeared in my hand. “I have a lot,” I said, throwing it to her. “How much would you need?” She eyed it quizzically then me.

 “How-”

 

 “Don’t ask how. Just tell me how much you want, and I’ll get it for you. It costs me money though,” I said. Soon enough she called for people and I was buying as much seastone as I could. I made a nice little profit off the mountain I sold her.

 “How-”

 

 “Don’t ask, trust me. Just one of many tricks I can pull,” I said. One of her advisors was able to verify it was real seastone. Then they were carting it off to try to attach to the boat right away.

 “Why are you helping us?” Hancock asked as they worked.

 I turned to her. Herrge eyes moist as she stared at me. “I thought I was helping you,” I admitted. She blushed for real this time. “I mean, it’s not everyday someone pukes in my mouth. It left quite the impression.” She blushed harder, this time anger ring her nostrils out. Iughed as I dodged back from the swipe she sent my way.

 “Oh I like this one,” an old voice said. Hancock and I turned to see the olddy as she stood on her snake staff.

 

 “Nyon, what are you doing here?” Hancock asked, as she faced the woman.

 “I heard a man was on the ind,” the elderly woman said. “I wanted to see him for myself.”

 

 “Get out of here you old bat,” Hancock said. “I will call for you when I need you.”

 “So wise in the outside world now?” Nyun asked. “I heard this man saved your life, and the life of your crew. Why do I feel like I should hang around and chaperone you two?” I looked around and noticed that Hancock’s sisters had left at some point. It really had just been Hancock and I.

 “N-Nothing happened,” Hancock said quickly. “We were simply talking.”

 “Oh, I know where that leads,” Nyun said. Jumping off her staff she walked up to me. She began to walk around me. “Strong at least. Tell me, do you run a pirate crew?”

 “Nope,” I said. “But my captain will be the Pirate King.”

 

 She guffawed. “Quite the confidence in someone else, what about confidence in yourself? Have your own dreams?”

 I thought about it. What did I want to do in One Piece? “I don’t know. Get my memories back, maybe? Till then fight.”

 “Fight who?” Nyun asked.

 “Whoever I need to, to get stronger,” I said. “World Government, other pirates, doesn’t matter to me.”

 

 “World Government?” She asked, intrigued. “Are they worth fighting?” 

 “Of course,” I said. “The world government is just another pirate crew. A big one. But a pirate crew nheless.”

 “Pirate crew? How’s that?” She asked.

 “They take what they want. Make up their own rules that everyone else has to live by but themselves. Always plotting,” I said. “And the Nobles? Don’t get me started. I’ve met less greasy loan sharks.”

 “So you’ve met the nobles?” She asked.

 “Nope,” I said. “I don’t remember much about my past. But I know I hate the Nobles with a passion.”

 

 Nyon nodded. “Good, when are you leaving?”

 I was caught off guard by the question. “Tomorrow,” I said. 

 

 “Good. You will stay at my hut.”

 “No!” Hancock said angrily.

 

 “You see,” Nyun spat as she dodged away from Hancock. “This is why he must. You already are infected.”

 “I am not!” Hancock yelled. “You’re just senile.”

 

 “He will stay in my hut outside of town,” Nyun said.

 

 “No,” Hancock said, her face flushing. I looked between them oddly. Unsure what was going on. “He needs to stay here.”

 “Hancock, get ahold of yourself,” Nyun said. 

 “I can’t,” Hancock cried out.

 “What’s going on?” I asked. The women turned to me, as if noticing I was still there.

 “There is a sickness-” Nyun tried to admit but Hancock cut her off.

 “Don’t say it!” Hancock said trying to grab the olddy again.

 

 “A sickness that the captains of the Kuja pirates are infected with when they meet certain men,” Nyun admitted, while dodging Hancock. “It is called Love Sickness.”

 I couldn’t help but startughing. I vaguely remembered it in the manga. But she made it sound serious, when obviously she just had a crush. “It is a very serious illness,” Nyun said. “She could die.”

 “Die? From being love sick?” I asked.

 “Yes, it only affects the captains,” Nyun said.

 “And you can die from it?” I asked. Hancock blushed furiously as I talked to the elder.

 “Yes, it has happened before. The captain bes despondent and depressed. Unwilling to eat or interact. Until eventually they die,” she said. I guessed I could see that, but it seemed a little extreme for someone that yelled at me for a few days. Then again this was an ind full of women. Who knew what went on with people when they didn’t grow up with the opposite gender.

 “How do you fight it?” I asked.

 “She would have to go with you,” Nyun said. “On your journey.”

 

 “I’m not against it,” I said. Hancock looked up at me. Hope in her eyes, and a lust that wasn’t there before.

 “No,” Nyun said quickly. “She is a Shichibukai. She is the only thing keeping the world government froming to our ind.” Hancock frowned as tears formed in her eyes.

 

 “So you’re just going to let her die?” I asked.

 “Of course not,” Nyun said. “We need to handle this very delicately. If you are willing to help.” 

 

 “I mean, that’s all I’ve been trying to do. Help,” I said. “What do you need?”

 “We need you to stay here,” Nyun said. I frowned. “Just a few weeks until the sea king snakes are healed. Then she can take you to where you need to go.”

 

 “I…can’t do that,” I said sadly. Nyun and Hancock gave me a hurt look. “What needs to happen over the next few weeks?” I asked.

 Nyun admitted, “You will need to spend time together. Get to know one another.”

 “Why can’t we do that now?” I asked.

 

 “It needs to be done slowly,” Nyun said. “If we tried it now, things could progress much more quickly than she would be able to handle. Thest thing we need is the Snake Princess to be pregnant.”

 

 “I can help with that,” I said. Pulling out my Chikyugi Ne I raised it so they could both see. “We can get to know one another in a safe environment. 100% pregnancy free,” I said with a big smile.
