Cavendish has already boarded the ship, Jinbei has escaped back to Fish-Man Island, and even Hancock is still recovering from his injuries on the ship.
These outstanding combat powers are the targets that Mod wants to recruit.
It doesn't have to be a subordinate relationship, even just a cooperative relationship can satisfy Mod's need to expand the scale of his power.
"It is necessary to go to Fishman Island."
Maud thought silently in her heart.
When it comes to recruiting Jinbei, he is bound to win.
With Jinbei's strength, it was worthy of him to make a special trip to Fish-Man Island.
It's just that there are so many things to do now, and they vary in severity, so Maude can't get away for the time being.
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.
During this time, the terrifying three-masted ship has been staying in the Devil's Triangle, which is filled with thick fog all year round.
The situation and information about the outside world can only be understood through newspapers.
It seems that because of this naval defeat, the world is in turmoil.
In just a few days, countless places were attacked and plundered by pirates.
It is difficult to tell whether this phenomenon is due to a sudden surge in the number of pirates, or because the pirates believe that after the navy's defeat, the garrison forces in various places will become weaker, so they act unscrupulously.
All in all, the pirates had a tacit understanding of the timing of their plunder, causing unimaginable losses to countless ordinary people.
Even the member countries that are protected by the World Government are all threatened by pirates without exception.
It seems that the period after the navy's fiasco was a carnival day for pirates.
Wherever there is prosperity, you can almost see pirates doing whatever they want.
Messages for help came in from all over the place all the time, making the Navy headquarters, which was severely weakened, overwhelmed.
In order to replenish the shortage of troops as soon as possible, the Navy launched a world recruitment operation with great fanfare.
News of the recruitment spread around the world, and due to the persecution caused by pirates, there was a backlash around the world, which actively responded to the world recruitment campaign issued by the Navy.
Maude, who was in the Devil's Triangle, learned about these things through newspapers.
But what he wanted to know more now was the whereabouts of Jabba.
The Revolutionary Army's intelligence network, Xia Qi's intelligence channels, and the bounty placed by Morgans in the underground world were all working together.
However.
A week passed and still no news at all.
Maude couldn't sit still, feeling that she couldn't wait any longer, and her desire to catch one or two Celestial Dragons became even stronger.
this day.
Maude comes to Hancock's room.
It was originally thought that Hancock's injury would take at least half a month to recover.
As a result, I almost recovered within a week.
This is the benefit of a strong physique.
"I'll take you back to Nine Snakes tomorrow."
Maude is interested in recruiting Hancock, but there is no need to rush in this matter.
He still had a lot to do at the moment, and before that, it would be better to send Hancock back to Nine Snakes.
Otherwise, when they go to the New World or Fishman Island, they will waste a lot of time if they want to send Hancock back to Nine Snakes.
"good."
Hancock nodded in agreement.
After recovering from her injuries, she naturally had no reason to stay.
And in view of what she did on the battlefield, there is a high probability that the Navy Headquarters will settle the score later, so it would not be surprising even if it sends warships to attack Kuja.
Hancock is still a little worried about this.
"Then it's settled."
Maude smiled at Hancock.
Hancock's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and a blush appeared on his cheeks as a reflex.
“…”
Seeing Hancock being so sensitive, Maude was speechless.
He thought to himself that if he called Hancock "honey" as a prank, Hancock would faint on the spot due to severe overheating of the CPU in his brain.
But Maud was not in the mood to tease Hancock now. After a brief chat, she said goodbye to Hancock, then turned and left the room.
Early the next morning.
Under Maude's instructions, Lafayette and the others quickly completed preparations for the voyage.
Just to send Hancock back to Nine Snakes, there is no need to dispatch all the troops, and there is no need to use the terrifying three-masted ship.
The ship used for the voyage was the Hades, and the people in the team who boarded the ship were Jaya, Lafayette, Cavendish, Perona, Bailey, and Brooke.
Others stayed behind on the terrifying barque.
Anyway, the terrifying three-masted ship is currently anchored in the Devil's Triangle. There is no need to worry about being found by the navy. All you have to do is stay where you are and wait for Mod and the others to come back.
Even if the navy comes to visit, nothing will happen if Aoki Pheasant is around.
Under the watch of Aokiji and the others, the Hades slowly sailed away from the terrifying three-masted ship, and immediately flew into the air under the influence of Jaya's ability.
After a while.
The Hades broke through the thick fog and floated high in the sky.
Lafayette held a life card provided by Hancock in his hand, adjusting the direction of the Hades while calibrating the direction.
Soon, the direction calibration was completed.
Lafayette signaled Jaya to speed up.
Jia Ya understood and accelerated the flight speed of the Hades.
In an instant, the Hades was moving through the clouds at a very fast speed.
At this speed, the voyage that originally took about 12 days should be directly shortened by twice the time.
Hancock was wearing a coat, and from time to time his eyes would look at Maud, who was lying on a chair reading a book.
She didn't know what she had figured out on her own, but while peeking at Maud, she whispered to herself and covered her red face.
Hancock looked so nymphomaniac that Perona, who was not far away, rolled her eyes.
She knew that it was normal for Lady Maud to attract women with her charm.
But Hancock, who is known as the most beautiful woman in the world, would be so obsessed with Maud. This is something Perona never expected.
Who would believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes
"Do you think you can win the favor of Lord Maud by being a nymphomaniac? Huh, it's just a dream."
Perona kept snoring in her heart, her eyes swept over Hancock's face and figure, and she felt a little envious.
Although she really didn't want to admit it, Hancock's face and figure really surpassed her by several blocks.
"Fortunately, Lord Maud is not the kind of superficial man who is easily attracted by beauty..."
Perona's mental activities became extremely rich. One moment she gritted her teeth, and the next moment she looked at Maud with admiration on her face.
Bailey, who was holding a piece of bread and chewing on it, couldn't help but look at Perona with a crazy look when he passed by Perona.
"Did this idiot take the wrong medicine?"
Bailey muttered under his breath.
The main reason is that Perona shows her rich psychological activities without any reservation, which makes her look a bit silly.
Bailey's muttering did not escape Perona's ears.
Perona also realized that she had accidentally expressed her mental activities, her face turned slightly red, and then she looked at Bailey with a look of anger in her eyes, and raised her hand to send a negative ghost over.
Plop.
Bailey, who was penetrated by the ghost of negativity, fell to his knees on the spot and looked at the bread that fell in front of him with a negative expression.
"If there is an afterlife, I would like to have bread crumbs all over the floor."
"snort."
Perona stepped on Bailey's butt, then turned and walked away.
Bailey wanted to rush over and bite Perona, but in his passive state he could do nothing but silently stare at the crumbs scattered on the deck.
Jaya walked out of the cabin with a few glasses of iced lemon tea and saw Bailey kneeling on the deck with a passive expression on his face. She probably guessed what happened.
She shook her head slightly, placed one of the iced lemon teas next to Bailey, and then walked straight towards Maude.
"Thanks."
Maud looked at the iced lemon tea that Jaya had put down.
Jaya nodded slightly towards Mod, then turned and returned to the cabin.
Hancock's eyes followed Jia Ya, with a hint of hostility.
If Perona sticks to Maud, Hancock will not be jealous at all, let alone care about Perona's existence.
Because she felt that Perona was not threatening, but Jia Ya was different.
Hancock could see that the relationship between Maude and Jaya was unusual.
Therefore, even though Jia Ya's figure and face are not as good as hers, she still feels threatened.
Stare~~~
Hancock stared at Jaya.
Jaya felt the hostile look from Hancock's side.
Knowing what was going on, she couldn't help but laugh in her heart.
The arrogant and willful woman behind him would behave completely differently than usual once Maud was involved.
Surprisingly cute.
Jia Ya thought in her heart, pretending not to notice Hancock's gaze, walked straight into the cabin and went to the kitchen to prepare ingredients.
"Captain, phone bug."
On the second floor of the cabin, Lafayette stood in front of the railing, holding a phone bug in his hand that was making a "buzzing" sound.
After hearing Lafayette's words, Maude put down the book, raised her hand and said, "Throw it over."
"learn."
Lafayette smiled slightly and threw the phone bug over.
The phone bug was so frightened that he opened his eyes, his body drew a graceful arc in mid-air, and finally landed accurately in Maud's hand.
Maude picked up the receiver and answered the call.
As the call was connected, the appearance of the phone bug changed, and it was somewhat similar to Sunny's appearance.
"Maude, it's me."
Sunny's voice came through the phone bug.
"Sunny..."
Maud had some surprises and surprises.
When he heard Sunny's voice, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
But in an instant, he thought of Thor's death again, and he slowly suppressed the smile that had just appeared.
Hancock saw this change in Maud's expression, and he felt curious in his heart. He pricked up his ears and listened to Maud's call.
