Chapter 302 Burial

"When..."

"when……"

In the Nine Snakes City, the women of Amazon Lily heard the bell, raised their heads and looked silently towards the place where the palace was.

At the foot of the city wall, Bonnie, who was forced into a corner, saw the green woman with wings suddenly stop.

Sandasonia looked in the direction of the sound of the bell and said sadly, "It's my sister... It seems that Lady Snake has left. Mary, go to the flowerbed and pick two tulips."

Marigrud, who was not far away, nodded and said seriously, "Pick three. Bring one for my sister, too."

"when……"

"when……"

The bell sounds one after another slowly dissipated into the sky.

The surface of the ancient bell was left with overlapping palm prints.

Hancock walked to the window of the clock tower and saw that more and more Nine Snake women on the ground outside temporarily put down their work and slowly gathered here.

A sad atmosphere slowly spread. Hancock looked up and forward with an expressionless face. Far away on the opposite side, a figure jumped high up and landed on the top of the city wall, also looking at this side from a distance.

………………

In the palace, ministers, maids, national warriors, pirates... more and more Nine Snake women came and saw the neatly dressed Snake Princess, who even wore light makeup. Although her face was a little thin and haggard, she seemed to be sleeping with her eyes closed. This was her last appearance. Several female ministers wiped away their tears, sniffed her breath, checked her heartbeat, and although they were sad and reluctant, they still officially confirmed the death of Snake Princess to other citizens.

All the people of Kuja are warriors. But warriors also have their moments of tears.

The hall was filled with nine snake female warriors who were looking at the body of the Snake Queen and weeping silently.

Lin Qi also came and stood at the edge of the crowd. Although the nine snake women had different body shapes, the tall ones, such as Avlandra, who had the blood of a giant, were probably more than ten meters tall, but most of them were still within the range of ordinary people, about 1.8 to 1.9 meters tall. Lin Qi, who was only 2.3 meters tall, could clearly see the remains of the snake queen tulip surrounded by flowers even if he stood at the edge.

Robin saw him and sidled over. Lynch reached out, interlaced his fingers, and squeezed her hand to comfort her.

"Then... according to tradition," the gray-haired female minister announced in a hoarse voice with red eyes, "after the death of the Snake Princess, a new generation of Snake Princess will succeed the throne of the Amazon Lily Emperor."

According to tradition, every time the Snake Queen passed away, the whole country would mourn and hold a large-scale competition to select the strongest warriors of the new generation to shoulder the title of the Snake Queen.

However, everyone knew who was the strongest warrior of this generation, without any objection, and the process had been gone through long before Tulip Snake Princess died, and it was confirmed that it was Hancock.

Hancock stood alone beside the body of the Snake Princess and said expressionlessly, "Prepare for the funeral."

"Yes..." the women in the hall responded, bowing their heads one after another.

………………

In the suburbs, there is a new tomb with the name of Tulip written on it.

All the people of Kuja came to attend the funeral.

The isolated island was inhabited by simple women. Upon seeing the death of the Snake Princess, they could not hide their sorrow and shed tears.

The body of Snake Queen was gently lowered into the pit.

In front of the monument, nine snake women passed by one after another, and after observing a moment of silence, they presented a tulip.

"Lady Snake." Sandasonia sighed softly, and together with her sister, placed three freshly picked white tulips in front of the monument piled with tulips of various colors.

She patted the shoulder of Marigrude, whose eyes were red with tears, and retreated into the crowd with her.

Rustle...

As the Nine Snakes Princess, Robin stood at the front with the new Snake Princess Hancock, watching the national warrior Cosmos and a member of the pirate group push the soil back into the pit bit by bit, burying the wooden coffin little by little.

At the edge of the crowd, Bonnie slipped away quietly, intending to take this opportunity to escape from this place.

But suddenly I heard the man's voice: "I advise you to calm down. Hancock is in a very bad mood right now. If you run away now and get caught by her, have you thought about the consequences?"

Bonnie's chest heaved, she took a deep breath, clenched and unclenched her fists, and looked back angrily.

But the annoying guy named Giorno didn't look at her much, but looked at the tulips piled in front of the tombstone from afar.

"I can't believe you have feelings for that Snake Princess?" Bonnie's tone was sarcastic, but unfortunately Giorno ignored her.

Lin Qi saw that the female ministers took out a few bags and walked in front of the crowd. The women of the Nine Snakes reached into their bags one after another, took out something and held it in their palms.

"What is that?" Bonnie wondered.

"It's seeds." Sanda Sonya and Marigrud also reached into the bag handed over by a minister and took some. They came to the side of Lin Qi and the others. Marigrud opened her palm, and there were a few seeds lying quietly in her palm. "They are all snow fruit flower seeds. Everyone, take the seeds and go back to plant them."

Lin Qi said: "Snow fruit flower... This is the name of the flower from which Hancock's name comes."

"Yeah." Mary nodded.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Bonnie was surprised and asked, "You still have such a tradition! Could it be that when she... when she ascended the throne, you received tulip seeds?"

"Yeah." Sanda nodded, "It should be."

Bonnie muttered, "No wonder you picked so many different tulips and laid them on the grave..."

Lin Qi looked at Snake Princess's tombstone for a while, then said to Sanda and the others, "I'll leave for a while."

Nodding, Lynch turned and left. With his speed, he disappeared in an instant.

The crowd was filled with sadness. Hancock looked up slightly in front of the tomb, then turned around and exchanged glances with Jolyne.

Hancock said to himself, "What a sharp fellow!"

She turned and walked away, and everyone tried to stop her in astonishment.

Hancock scolded, "What are you going to do? Do you want to disobey me, the Snake Princess? Although it is too much to be willful at a funeral, I think..." She smiled softly, "You will forgive me, right?"

Amidst the clamor of obsession, Hancock walked away.

Princess Xu Lun of the Nine Snakes bowed her head silently in front of the tombstone piled with tulips of various colors.

At the same time, the palace bedroom was decorated in plain white, and Lynch came here.

Lynch was walking around the bedroom when he suddenly heard Hancock's voice behind him: "Hey! What are you looking for?"

"Since you followed me, you must have guessed what I guessed what you did." Lynch didn't look back and continued to wander around the bedroom. Soon, a "BIB" sound came from somewhere in the bedroom. Lynch rushed forward and came to the corner of the side hall. He saw something lying on the ground covered by a bed sheet. The man in black armor stood aside and pointed at the thing lying under the bed sheet.

Wow——BIB lifted the bed sheet at the signal of the main body.

Hancock followed and stood next to Giorno, and together with him, they saw the stone statue of Tulip the Snake Princess exposed from under the bed sheet.

In the suburbs, in front of a tombstone piled with tulips of various colors, the mourners dispersed one after another, and the ministers came one by one to comfort Princess Xu Lun and mourn.

Robin stood alone in front of the monument, and with a slight movement of his fingers, he released the ability of the Hana-Han-No-Mikoto.

Passing through the loose soil, through the lid of the wooden coffin... inside the coffin of Snake Queen Tulip, the body of the Snake Queen collapsed with a bang, disintegrated into petals that fluttered in the air and piled up in the silent wooden coffin.

I was a little late because I wanted to finish writing this paragraph in one go...
