Chapter 226 Flower Clone
Hancock suddenly raised her face, her beautiful red face full of astonishment.
God knows what kind of shame she endured before she mustered up the courage to ask this question.
As a result, the two of them actually reacted like this? Lynch and Robin did not expect that Hancock, who had been adopting an evasive strategy and pretending to be an ostrich, would take the initiative to talk about this matter.
"Although it's a little weird, it's just a hobby. Is it a big deal?" Lin Qi said indifferently, "There are so many weird people in this world, and there are even people with distorted aesthetics who particularly like weird things... Don't you think so, Captain Xu Lun?"
He turned to look at Robin.
"Huh?" Robin was confused.
"But... isn't this very strange!" Hancock's face was still flushed. The two people in front of her were calm and composed, but she was extremely conflicted. She frowned and bit her lip and said, "I'm Hancock! How could I like..." She closed her eyes and said in a low voice, "How could I like having my body controlled by others!"
She said it out loud... Lynch and Robin thought at the same time, it's really hard for her...
"That's not the case. Sometimes a person will subconsciously prefer something they lack." Lynch analyzed, "Look, Hancock, you have awakened the Haki of Armament, Observation, and Conqueror since you were born, right? The powerful strength that others desire, you are born with, and you can obtain it without any effort... Maybe because of this, the feeling of having your body controlled by others... Well, it's a bit novel, a bit addictive?"
This statement is too weird! Robin was embarrassed, and Hancock looked at him expressionlessly...
Lynch spread his hands, "Or maybe it's innate! In fact, it's very difficult to trigger your fetish. Haven't you noticed? Back then, you were obviously very uncomfortable and a little afraid of the experience of the protagonist in "Room"... Don't interrupt!" Hancock was about to refute, but was held down by Lynch, "This proves that you are not a masochist, it's just that your body is being controlled! And it's actually very difficult to do this for you - if you don't have the Medusa Fruit."
"And the Medusa Fruit is yours, so you won't be controlled by the snake's hair toxin - the antidote is your own blood." The more Lin Qi spoke, the more he felt it made sense. "In other words, in order for you to awaken this habit, you need: one, the Medusa Fruit; two, the ability to switch the special abilities of the Devil Fruit; three, people like Xu Lun and I who you trust and who won't do anything excessive to you when controlling you... If any of these conditions is missing, even if you are born with this habit, you may never have the chance to discover it in your lifetime..."
As he spoke, he noticed that Robin's eyes gradually became helpless as he looked at him, and he shook his head slightly.
"Did I say something wrong?"
"The premise is wrong from the beginning." Robin pointed out, "The Medusa Fruit is not the only one that can control Hancock's body... Have you forgotten? You once controlled Hancock's body long before she got the Medusa Fruit."
"Is there?" Lynch was confused.
Hancock blinked her beautiful big eyes.
Robin reminded, "This is Hancock's first time sailing."
Lynch thought about it.
He wondered, "That time shouldn't count, right? My hypnosis on her is conditional. Only when she is poisoned or something else, and has no ability to move but needs to resist someone, her body will move on its own and fight for her..."
However, when Hancock returned with the Nine Snakes Pirate Ship more than three years ago, she did not mention a word about her voyage.
Seeing that she was safe and sound, Lin Qi naturally did not ask any more questions. After all, hypnotizing a little girl was not a very glorious thing. As long as she was fine, it was fine.
"During that trip, Hancock was almost captured by slave traders." Robin reached out and lifted Hancock's long black hair. "If it weren't for the hypnosis you cast on her, she would probably still be..." At this point, she glanced at Lynch, who looked surprised. "Well, she should still be a slave of the Celestial Dragons now."
Even if she only heard it from Jolyne's mouth and recalled the plot in the book "Room", Hancock couldn't help but shudder, which shows how deep the fear was at that time.
She couldn't help but ask, "Xu Lun! How did you know about this?"
"Snake Princess told me." Robin said calmly.
Hancock took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "Why did she tell you everything? I must..."
The weak face of Snake Princess flashed before her eyes. Hancock's heart softened, she closed her eyes and shook her head, not continuing to speak.
Robin said: "So I think that Hancock developed a subconscious attachment to that special state because of that experience...it would give her a sense of security and protection."
"Will I need protection?!" Hancock's voice suddenly rose and she stood up suddenly.
Robin looked up and said, "Your mind can deceive you, but your body can't. You probably never thought you were afraid of anything, right? But at that time, you were indeed afraid. Wasn't it?"
Hancock opened her mouth and slowly sat down again. She wanted to refute, but the shadow of that terrible experience still existed.
"You think you don't care about other people's protection, but..." Robin didn't finish her words and looked at Hancock. The meaning of her eyes was self-evident, which made Hancock blush again. Robin added: "But like Giorno said, it's just a hobby that can be realized so conveniently because of the existence of the Medusa Fruit and his special ability to switch devil fruits... If you don't want to, just don't do it in the future. It's no big deal, don't worry too much."
It was obvious that Xu Lun was one year younger than her, but she was comforting herself... Hancock's breathing was so rapid that one might have suspected that her shirt was about to be torn into pieces.
Her face turned red, she pursed her lips, stared at Giorno and Jolyne for a while, then stood up and walked out without saying a word.
In the cabin, Lynch and Robin looked at each other.
"She didn't say no. What she meant was..." Lynch stroked his chin, "Does she mean 'I still want to play in the future'?"
"Maybe..." Robin yawned, "I'm a little tired."
"Then you take a rest first." Lin Qi didn't hesitate, "I'll go out and get something to eat. I'm really hungry!"
After Lynch's footsteps faded away, Robin lay on the bed, hugged the quilt, rubbed his hair, and buried his face in the pillow.
………………
Two giant snakes dragged a red ship slowly towards an island.
"How strange, there's a ship...ah! It's a pirate ship!"
"There are pirates?!"
The people in the town looked at the huge canvas on the ship on the shore. When they saw the snake-haired skull logo clearly, they were even more shocked. "That pattern... could it be the Nine Snakes Pirates, the pirates from the country of women?!"
"Women's country?"
"A country full of women, a paradise like that, does it really exist?!"
Some young people became excited upon hearing this, and could not help but move towards the shore where the pirate ship was docked. Their sharp eyes immediately noticed the graceful female warriors on the deck.
“So beautiful…”
“They are all women…”
"A pirate ship full of women! I really want to get on it..."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
All the young people had hearts in their eyes, and some even drooled.
The charming aunt came over holding a spoon and said disdainfully: "Dream on! In the rumored country of women, men will die if they go there! And I heard that no men are allowed to go on the ship of the Nine Snakes Pirates..."
"Where is that person?"
An old man in a vest pointed at the red pirate ship that was parked on the shore, and a young man walked out from the bow of the deck. No matter how you look at it, that handsome guy must be a man, right?!
"So handsome..." the aunt murmured, and the spoon in her hand fell to the ground with a clang.
“This island isn’t very big!”
On the deck, Lynch raised his hand and looked around, and naturally, his observation Haki enveloped the island. Suddenly, the general pattern of the gathering and distribution of life on the island appeared in his mind.
It is similar to the islands in this world. There is a main city in the center of the island, which is probably the royal city. There are five small villages scattered along the coast. Some are big enough to be a small city, and some are small enough to be a fishing village.
"Get some supplies." Hancock walked out of the cabin and gave a simple order.
Although they are pirates, it is more convenient to buy supplies with money than to plunder small island towns like this.
The currency used on Nine Snake Island is snake hair.
The pirate ships and merchant ships they plundered at sea... except for the supplies they needed to bring back the Nine Snakes and their own use during the voyage, those Baileys were just a pile of waste paper to them...
Robin smiled and said, "Then I have to hurry up too."
The reason she came out this time was to buy some books to read.
As she spoke, petals surged around her body, and one by one, graceful figures seemed to walk out of her body. The human-shaped petals condensed into an avatar that was exactly the same as Robin.
At first, twenty clones were created, but Robin was able to successfully shape only half of them into the lifelike appearance of "Kujo Jolyne", so she had to scatter the other ten into petals and discard them...
The surrounding nine snake female warriors looked at the abilities displayed by the princess's Flower-Flower Fruit with curiosity, longing and amazement.
Under Robin's control, the ten flower clones walked back and forth a few steps, looked left and right, and made some delicate movements. The movements of three of them obviously became a bit dull and dazed.
"It seems that you can only perfectly control seven clones at most." Hancock commented.
"If it's to be used in combat, it'll be even less." Robin shook her head. Even for her, after years of training, multitasking like this was very difficult.
She waved her hand and disbanded the two flower clones, which turned into petals and fell.
The five flower clones that remained looked at each other, smiled at Lynch and Hancock, walked towards the original body, and each took some Baileys to take with them.
Robin patted Lynch on the shoulder and said, "Can I borrow your observation Haki?"
"Okay." A dark shadow walked out of Lynch's body.
Robin raised his hand, with a trace of Armament Haki wrapped around his palm, and lightly took off BIB's helmet and put it on his head. The stand armor was not a real entity, so he didn't worry about the helmet pressing on his hair. With the help of BIB's observation Haki ability copied from Lynch, Robin also roughly captured the distribution of towns on this island in an instant.
The five flower clones left the Nine Snakes Pirate Ship one after another, and without communicating, they each chose a town and walked towards it.
"Let's go too." Robin's original form said with a smile, and followed Lynch and Hancock off the boat.
The people in the town all opened their mouths wide, looking at the gorgeous women coming down from the pirate ship, thinking that they were probably dreaming. I really hope it's an erotic dream...
I was so engrossed in watching the game that I forgot about time. I will only update once today. 3400 words, but unfortunately I don't have time to write another 600 words to make two chapters... I will try to update three chapters tomorrow.
