Including Blackbeard himself, the Blackbeard Pirates numbered five in total. Excluding Champion Jesus Burgess, three had now arrived.
Without any warning, they directly entered her Kuja Pirates' territory and rampaged, burning, killing, and looting.
Such provocative actions were tantamount to declaring war on her Kuja Pirates!
"Snake Princess-sama... they destroyed our territory, they should be punished! Let the sisters of our Kuja Pirates strike and finish them off in one go!"
Boa Sandersonia, Boa Marigold, and Boa Hancock were known as the "Gorgon Sisters."
When they were young, they were slaves to the Celestial Dragons. Fisher Tiger caused a great disturbance in Mary Geoise, releasing thousands of slaves, and the three of them managed to escape.
It could be said that the three of them relied on each other, with Empress Hancock as their leader, and had always been the backbone of the Kuja Pirates.
The islands under the Kuja Pirates' command being ruthlessly invaded and plundered already made them extremely angry.
Now, facing their questions, the other party showed not a trace of remorse. Hearing those words, they were filled with rage and immediately demanded to fight the Blackbeard Pirates.
"Now is not the time to fight."
However, Empress Hancock understood the severity of the consequences.
The one backing the Blackbeard Pirates was Blackbeard. If she personally dealt with all of his crew members, Blackbeard would very likely come seeking revenge.
At that time, not only these islands under the Kuja Pirates' command, but even the main Amazon Lily, would likely become sacrifices at the hands of Blackbeard!
Empress Hancock had heard that when Blackbeard fought Ace, he used some strange ability to turn an entire town to ashes in an instant... If a battle were to break out on Amazon Lily, winning or losing would be another matter, but all their sisters would likely suffer!
"These are just Blackbeard's cadres; dealing with them is not difficult."
"But behind them is Blackbeard. If Blackbeard enters Amazon Lily, true disaster will not be far off!"
In their brief exchange, Empress Hancock had already roughly gauged the opponent's strength.
Dealing with them alone, plus the entire Kuja Pirates, would indeed be very easy.
But if Blackbeard came for revenge, Empress Hancock was not confident she could withstand Blackbeard's wrath... nor did she want her sisters and the people of Amazon Lily to become casualties of war!
"Snake Princess-sama, what should we do then? Should we just let them plunder our islands and watch them, ya ya?"
Boa Marigold flicked her long snake tongue and said anxiously, "Snake Princess-sama, I am willing to sacrifice my life for you, let me go! I will definitely let them know what happens when you provoke the Kuja Pirates!"
"Marigold, don't be impulsive. Since they dared to come, it means they must have made ample preparations to deal with us."
Empress Hancock raised a hand and said, "However... our Kuja Pirates are not to be bullied by just anyone. We can endure for a while, but if they don't know how to rein themselves in, then we must let them know that when the Kuja Pirates get angry, it's something they cannot bear!"
Weighing the situation, for the sake of the Kuja Pirates and the brothers and sisters of Amazon Lily, Empress Hancock decided to back down for the time being.
"Blackbeard Pirates, what you have done before, I will consider it a welcoming gift... But now, you must immediately leave my territory!"
Empress Hancock declared loudly, her sweet voice carrying an undeniable authority and solemnity, along with a warning and a hint of no defiance.
"If you insist on offending my territory, then don't blame me for not extending guest courtesies to you!"
"Snake Princess-sama..."
The crew members of the Kuja Pirates looked at Empress Hancock, feeling a pang of heartache.
Despite having the title of a Warlord and possessing formidable strength, she had to choose forbearance out of consideration for the citizens of Amazon Lily and the crew members of the Kuja Pirates.
"I apologize, Empress, our captain instructed that we must take three islands to complete our mission, otherwise we won't have it easy back home."
Lafitte twirled his cane, a pale smile appearing on his face. "If possible, I hope the Empress can grant us two more islands as a welcoming gift for our captain. This way, our Blackbeard Pirates and the Kuja Pirates can be considered to have formed an alliance, wouldn't you agree?"
"You shameless bastard, die!"
Hearing Lafitte's brazen words, all the sisters of the Kuja Pirates were enraged.
They knew Blackbeard was powerful, so they could endure these guys' arrogance and rudeness, even tolerating the destruction of one of the islands under the Kuja Pirates' command.
But these guys from the Blackbeard Pirates, instead of being satisfied, pushed their luck, even demanding two more islands!
This was beyond endurance. The sisters of the Kuja Pirates instantly flared up, and without another word, they drew their bows and fired arrows directly at Lafitte!
Bang! As soon as an arrow flew out, a gunshot rang.
An arrow broke in the center, completely pierced, shattering into pieces.
Bang!
One gunshot ended, and the second followed immediately.
The female warrior who had drawn her bow and arrow was shot in the arm on the spot, blood splattering. She could no longer hold her bow and arrow, which fell directly to the ground.
"This is fate... Every day you experience is a fork in the road of destiny. One careless mistake and a bullet can pass through your heart, so be careful."
Van Augur put his gun away, saying indifferently with a placid expression.
"You!"
Empress Hancock's face turned grim, and anger flared in her eyes.
"Augur, your actions were too reckless... How can you use a gun against a lady?"
Lafitte pinched the brim of his top hat, a sinister smile appearing on his pale face. "Ladies should be treated with death and violence!!!"
"Dare to lay a hand on my sisters... You're asking for death!"
Empress Hancock could no longer hold back. A cold glint appeared in her eyes, and her long, beautiful legs leaped up, "Sisters, trample them!"
