Don't let Hancock's appearance fool you, because her fruit is a very powerful one.
Anyone who has evil thoughts towards her will be directly turned to stone by her. But this does not mean that there are no other ways to petrify others. Whether it is directly attacked by physical skills, or using specific sweet fruit tricks, the empress can easily petrify people who have no lust.
Of course, there are still very few people in this world who can see that she is not lustful, so most of the time, she is entangled in desire and then petrified.
He looked at his gradually petrified right hand with interest. The petrified place was exactly the same as his hand, but in Li Ke's eyes, he could easily see a force trying to cover his palm, but he was The dragon power and life breath in the body block it and cannot directly petrify oneself.
Therefore, the progress of petrochemicals is very slow, as slow as Baidu Cloud without membership.
But Shi Hua is very determined. Although the dragon power in his body can block it, it cannot stop this world. Unless you use domineering resistance, even if you can block the progress of petrification to the minimum, you still can't completely block it, and you can only watch yourself slowly transform into stone.
That's right, only Haki can completely block it, and no other power can. But even Haki can only defend and cannot restore vitality to the petrified place.
However, if you are hit while covering Haki, it will not be like this. Although you will be petrified for a short time, you can break free by yourself.
If there is no defense and there is still desire for Hancock, then the part turned to stone will be pure stone without any trace of flesh and blood.
Li Ke hooked his hand slightly, and the petrified part broke. But immediately after, his hand was shrouded in brilliance, and under Hancock's ghostly gaze, his broken hand grew out.
"What a terrifying power, so scary."
Moving his hands casually, Li Ke patted Hancock's shoulder, causing the incredulous woman to move.
"Since the daughter country does not welcome men, then I will not go. You can take your people and use my flag to go directly to the four-sea passage I opened, or use other methods to go to my fief. In addition, the terms of the contract, We can start fulfilling it. I think your Nine Snakes Island should have some valuable things and should be able to join our trade."
She would never be willing to let Hancock try her abilities, so Li Ke let go of his defense, letting Hancock understand that even if it was a sneak attack, her abilities would not be able to defeat Li Ke.
Only in this way can a woman who has been a pirate be able to fully recognize his status as the boss.
Leaving a ball of red dragon fire in the other party's body to repair her body, while Hancock looked at him silently, Li Ke turned around and walked back to his ship. When he stepped onto his ship, Hancock couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"...What a terrible man."
Her two younger sisters couldn't help but nod. When they stood in front of Li Ke, they both felt like they were looking at the mountains. This is a feeling that can only be felt when facing monsters like the four emperors and generals.
And compared to the traceable sense of oppression given to them by the general, Li Ke's feeling that you are already under his shadow by the time you react makes them even more frightened.
"But fortunately he is not a lecherous person, sister, otherwise..."
The green-haired Sundar Sonia looked at Li Ke's figure with some fear. She couldn't help but feel happy for her sister, and fortunately that Li Ke was not a lecherous person.
"You don't think so?"
She Ji picked up the cloak that belonged to Li Ke and couldn't help but curl her lips. She had seen the look Li Ke had just looked at her in the eyes of countless men. How could he not be lewd.
Marigold shook her head. Her appearance was not like that of Sundar Sonia, which was directly destroyed because of the Devil Fruit, but she could be trained to look like this. Therefore, she has also experienced some experiences of being pursued by men and looking at him with lustful eyes, and she understands exactly what Li Ke's eyes just meant.
and……
"Didn't you notice? The other party's crew members are basically all women. Even if there are men, none of them appear in the cabin, let alone see my sister."
But Sandasonia retorted.
"I think as long as people know about my sister's fruit power, they generally won't let men appear, right?"
Yes, although women can also have bad thoughts and be petrified because of Snake Princess, men's performance is worse than women's most of the time.
After all, it is male instinct to pursue females.
"Okay, stop arguing. You two go and get ready. We will prepare to go to his place as soon as we return to Nine Snakes Island... I want to go there in person."
"Sister, he is..."
"But if I don't go, Nine Snakes' right to speak among his forces will be weakened. You don't want us to be sent on some death missions, right? And are his benefits so easy to get?"
He shook the contract in his hand. Although neither party signed it, the generous conditions were enough to impress Hancock.
The first is food. The food on Nine Snake Island will be contributed by the caravan established by Li Ke. All Nine Snakes need to do is to stop engaging in pirate activities and protect Li Ke's caravan for trade.
And not only were they protecting them, but the fishmen from Fish-Man Island were also protecting them with them.
The specialty products of Nine Snake Island will also be sold by the caravan, and the division will be six to four, Nine Snakes six, Li Ke four. If the sales of the products do not meet expectations, then it will be Li Ke three, Nine Snakes seven.
The most important thing is that when Nine Snake Island encounters a force problem, Li Ke will personally come to rescue the siege. At the same time, residents of Nine Snake Island are also welcome to settle in Li Ke's fiefdom. As long as they pay taxes on time, they will be protected by Li Ke. You can lease land, own a piece of land of your own, and plant and settle during the lease period.
The rental fee can be paid on credit, but unless there are special circumstances, it must be repaid within three years.
In terms of taxes, except for the commercial tax, which is a bit heavier, the remaining taxes are very low, basically equal to none. On the contrary, there will be corresponding subsidies for agriculture, and this is true whether it is the people in his territory or the people on Nine Snakes Island.
even……
Any child can go to school and enjoy six years of compulsory education. Hancock didn't know how far Li Ke could achieve it, but as mentioned above, children who leave school can at least read and write, and there will be no one who doesn't know his name.
This is not because Li Ke doesn't want to directly engage in more advanced ones, but because his strength and teachers are not enough. Moreover, children in the pirate world are much better than children in the real world, and many adults cannot handle it.
Therefore, for the time being, we can only provide six years of compulsory education, help young parents take care of their children, so that they can work with peace of mind, and provide breakfast, lunch and school uniforms, so that they can save a lot of expenses.
Hancock did some calculations. If Li Ke completely implements these things, then he, the king, will not get anything good.
It is true that the pirate world is very rich, but its taxes are not heavy, only one-tenth of the world government. In this way, basically all the kingdom's taxes are used to serve the people at the bottom.
Don't even think about a palace, beautiful clothes, fine food, beautiful women in gorgeous clothes. Being able to maintain a balance of income and expenditure is already very impressive.
She couldn't understand why Li Ke did this.
He's obviously just a pervert.
Hancock grabbed Li Ke's clothes and smelled the residual smell on it. Her cold eyes were somewhat dazed. She didn't believe that there was such a person in the world, but she still subconsciously wrapped the cloak tightly.
Others just thought she needed this dress, so they didn't pay attention. Grandma Ze on the other side shook her head.
She understood Hancock's complicated mood. It was nothing more than a problem caused by Li Ke's ruthless behavior and the throbbing impact in her heart.
As long as Li Ke performs better, hates the world government more, and becomes more powerful, Hancock will become more and more unable to extricate himself. If she never lets go of her dignity, she will die in her youth due to lovesickness like all the previous kings except her.
After all, other Nine Snakes can still bring their daughters back to Nine Snakes Island, but the king of Nine Snakes Island cannot do this. He can only sit on the throne and think about his lover.
She took out the contract handed over by Hancock from the absent-minded Hancock, and her eyes widened instantly. If such a contract was placed in front of others, they would probably think that Li Ke was captured by She Ji's beauty, and was captured by She Ji. Only after defeat can such a contract be signed.
But Grandma Ze knew very well that Li Ke was strong enough for him to fulfill this contract.
The difference is one of degree.
So her eyes became complicated. She fell in love with such a person because of her fear of the Celestial Dragons. I really don't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for Hancock.
But whether this is a bad fate or something else, it still depends on how far Li Ke can go.
Li Ke had no idea. The treaty he handed to Hancock was something he had already prepared. It was just because Hancock was a responsible person that he gave the second portion.
The first share is not so generous, but it is just the caravan's share and benefits. The conditions for the bottom are still the same, there is no difference.
When these treaties were drawn up, most people, including the virtuous fishman king and Alabasta's father-in-law... The king of Alabasta was surprised, thinking that Li Ke was either a saint or a madman.
But in fact, the enjoyment of the pirate world is just like that for Li Ke.
He has an appetite for food, but he can catch the delicacies himself, except for those that can be exhibited as rare species.
As for beauty, it is really a waste to put all your energy on beauty in this world, and it is already enough. If you continue to increase it, it will really be unsustainable.
This is an extremely broad world, and good girls will not put everything on men. That is to say, what he wants to do is too advanced, and he must marry a few powerful princesses to stabilize people's hearts and make Nami and others acquiesce. But if they want to recruit beauties for lust, the Nami sisters will leave immediately, and Robin will disappear silently.
Rights, if he holds the power, he will naturally have rights.
So for him, money and desires in this world are useless. The establishment of an order is only to promote the completion of the characters in the world, not for enjoyment.
"It's so unlike you. I thought you would let that Hancock accompany you."
Nami threw herself into his arms jokingly, and then was thrown into Robin's arms mercilessly by Li Ke.
"You hurt my heart, so this embrace is no longer yours for the time being."
"You're going to die! It's not like you're usually too immoral!"
Li Ke knocked on his chest, and then began to take off his clothes, exposing his chest muscles in front of the public.
Robin watched with interest, but Nami already knew what Li Ke wanted to do.
Practice.
"Are you serious? This is a windless zone! A place with no wind and no waves!"
Nami couldn't help but touched Li Ke's forehead, a little speechless, and suspected that Li Ke had a fever.
She knew about Li Ke's tugging practice, but the windless zone was different. In other sea areas, most ships relied on the influence of wind and waves, so unless the wind was against them, Li Ke's load-bearing capacity was very small.
But the windless zone is different. There are no waves and no wind. If it relies entirely on Li Ke's body strength to drag, it is a completely different concept!
Because Li Ke will put more weight on himself!
"Actually, it's not that big of a deal. I'm still planning to find some unlucky fitness equipment to use...oh, it's here so soon...this"
Li Ke smiled. Nami still didn't know enough about the world's top power. After he came into contact with his dragon power, the sea boiled instantly.
He wanted to continue on his own path of cultivation, and without suitable Devil Fruit assistance, he could only rely on nature.
"……What's the meaning?"
Nami was stunned for a moment, and then she saw a sea beast as high as a small mountain suddenly jumped out from the side. Everyone was suddenly stunned. It's not because of anything else, but just the exposed parts of this Neptune are more than 200 meters tall!
"Don't you have your dragon power?!"
Nami subconsciously wanted to grab Li Ke's clothes, but she missed it.
Subconsciously looking up, he saw Li Ke appearing above the head of the Neptune type.
"Monster! I want you to help me practice!"
Li Ke punched Neptune on the head, causing him to faint. When it fell, waves crashed down on its face, but a black wall of air appeared in front of the ship, blocking the waves.
After the waves and the air wall disappeared, what Nami saw was that Li Ke had tied the anchor to the mountain-like Neptune creature, looking satisfied.
"So, is this your load this time... It's really unique."
Nuo Qigao walked out with a cigarette in his mouth and looked at Li Ke dragging the hill-like Neptune and the ship forward with a casual expression. There was nothing unusual about it.
But she immediately thought of something, and immediately waved and shouted to Li Ke in the distance.
"If you smell like fish! Don't even think about getting into my bed with Nami today!"
Nami covered her face. She knew that sometimes Li Ke had problems with his brain circuit, but she didn't expect that Li Ke would use the Neptune class as a weight in the windless zone!
Isn't he afraid that this Neptune species will attract all the Neptune species? ! And sister! Doesn't this break the tacit understanding between us? !
Robin on the side looked at the two sisters and decided not to speak to avoid looking like a fool.
