Chapter 3 - Water seven

Water seven

//April 26th 1505 in the grand line, somewhere between long ring long road island and border of the calm belt

"Captain ! I think we should atleast stop at the next Island where the log pose is pointing. The ship has taken some damage from the haki burst of Hancock. It will be really hard reaching the ship builder's slum if we encounter any bad weather.

Maria, the shipright of the boa yuda told captain Doja. Hancock was now really regretting not controlling herself properly. Kuja pirates, were not weak by any means. But this time Hancock's haki was too powerful and out of control, that it even damaged the ship.

"Alright I understand we will stop and refill in the next Island." Doja replied calmly. She was an experienced captain so Hancock didn't worry about the ship or the crew.

If she remember correctly then, the ship builder's slum, which will be known as water 7 in the future is the only place right now where they could get an eternal pose to the fishman island. And if the follow that pose then finding Sabaody archipelago won't be that hard anymore.

Kuja pirates mostly operated in paradise. They target both Marine and pirate ships and looted them. Amazon Lily was self sufficient when it comes to basic necessities like food, water and infrastructure for their houses. But anything more than that is provided by the Kuja pirates by looting other pirates and marine. Even most of the clothes were bought by the looted money.

And this has been the heritage of Kuja pirates and Amajon Lily for centuries.

Obviously, they mostly avoided going near the justice Islands and anywhere near the g1 base.

So it was common that any skilled navigator of Kuja pirates doesn't need a log pose to navigate through most of the paradise.

But this time the destination was sabaody archipelago. A place that Kuja pirates mostly avoids. So it was not a surprise that they can't go there straight.

By the time of noon, the Kuja pirates finally arrived the small Island pointed by the log pose.

Hancock along with a few others went to hunt for food. While the captain and the rest of the members focused on repairing the damage and take some much needed rest.

Unlike others Hancock choose to go to the sea. Not only because she didn't sense any strong animal to fight in the island but also because she wanted to experience swimming again. After eating a devil fruit it was common to become a hammer in the water. So obviously no devil fruit user can enjoy swimming.

Apart from that, the sea was full of dangerous sea kings. And Hancock wanted to increase her strength quickly. Apart from the natural growth of her body, she was focusing on the only thing that is possible for her now. Increasing her proficiency with haki. She has seen Reyliegh taking down monsters with bare arm with just the help of his Haki.

Even with intense training Hancock knew that to get to her prime self at least take eight years. But she didn't have that luxury. She needed to act now. Or else his sisters would be lost forever.

Reaching the sea shore Hancock took off her clothes and jumped into the sea.

With her observation haki, she located the first sea king.

But when she was going to hunt it down, she felt the true problem. She simply lacked diving skills. So without doing anything, she waited for the beast to come near her. The seeking took the bait and came to hunt her.

When it got closer, Hancock realised that it was at most 100 times bigger than herself in size. She was disappointed as it was not that big. But she focused on her haki, as the beast got closer.

The sea king was a tiger sea king. So it was naturally very violent. Because of her small size Hancock was able to dodge all it's attacks. But she was frustrated that even after hitting it with 5 haki coted attacks, the beast wasn't going down. Obviously the force behind her attacks were being reduced due to the water. But it was frustrating that she couldn't take it down with one blow.

'I guess, fighting weaker opponents won't increase my strength. I have to fight with stronger foes.'

With a powerful haki coated drop kick, Hancock finally broke the skull of the sea king.

It was really hard for Hancock to bring the sinking sea king to the land.

...

"Wow, we can actually store the extra food. Good job Hancock you really went overboard this time. Seven sea kings are more than enough for our entire crew." Doja said laughing.

But Hancock didn't say anything. She was busy thinking about how to save her sisters from the clutches of those slave traders.

After taking rest the Kuja pirates left the island in the evening.

Navigating the ocean during the full moon was easier. They took advantage of it and crossed a large distance with both favourable air current and paddles of the ship. By the time of sunrise, the predecessor of water seven could be seen in the horizon.

The previously beautiful city she remembered, was no where to be seen. Instead it was a cluster of houses and buildings floating on the sea surface. In her previous life, she had came to water seven to install motor paddles in her perfume yuda. The city was different back then. But now it was unrecognizable.

After reaching water seven or popular as ship builder's slum, the entire crew dispersed to find a eternal pose to fish man island. Finally after a lot of searching, Hancock and Fu's team found an eternal pose to the fishman Island.

But the trouble for the Kuja pirates was just beginning.
