Hancock woke up from the unspeakable sadness, suddenly opened his beautiful eyes, and sat up straight.

"Joe——"

She saw the familiar snake pattern curtain in front of her and turned her head blankly.

Through the gauze covering the bedside, you can see the layout of your bedroom... Is this the Nine Snakes Palace?

I'm back?

Is it just a nightmare...

Tears filled Hancock's eyes as the previous scenes flashed rapidly in his mind.

"Lynch..."

…

The twenty-meter-tall golden Buddha has thousands of golden lights on its head...

The lava giant descends like hell...

A frozen siege hundreds of meters high...

The fatal flash...

Palm impact...

Hot smoke...

A bone-chilling chill...

And the eyes he looked at me... Why should I be so useless! I never know how to resist his hypnosis?!

"No... don't..." His body walked uncontrollably towards the phone bug castle in his hand.

I don’t want to hide in there at all. If I die, I’ll die together. Why do you do this to me?!

"You...bastard..." I was deeply sleepy due to the hypnosis. Before I lost consciousness, I vaguely heard his voice, "I can't help it, Hancock, you are too charming. I'm afraid I can't refuse you."

..."

What kind of explanation is this?!

Lynch, you bastard...

Before consciousness finally fell into darkness, there was the rough touch of a pair of lip prints...

"Be good, go to sleep."

…

It was quiet in the Empress's palace, filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants. Sandasonia's chest and back were covered with bandages, and she was resting at her desk. Suddenly she opened her eyes, and she vaguely heard a low sob.

"Sister..." She reacted and immediately jumped up and ran to the bed in the palace. Through the curtains, she could see the slim figure sitting up on the bed, "Sister! Are you awake?"

Sanda opened the curtain, revealing the empress on the bed, and the entire palace seemed to be much brighter.

Hancock turned his head, covered his face with his long hair, and wiped his face.

"Sister..." Sanda leaned over and sat on the edge of the bed.

She saw her sister turn her head. Her long, black and smooth hair looked a little messy. Wiped tears could be seen on her previously gorgeous cheeks, and her face was a little pale.

Hancock's eyes were gloomy, poignant and moving. He looked at Sanda blankly, his red lips trembling slightly, as if he had something to say, wanted to ask, wanted to confirm, but he couldn't speak.

"Sister..." Sanda saw her usually strong and domineering sister showing such a weak and helpless look, and her heart ached, but she still reluctantly looked at her sister's absent-minded eyes and said softly: "Lin Qi's ghost belt"

After we returned to Nine Snakes, you were still in a coma. Princess Robin said that you were under Lynch's hypnosis and you were in a coma... It has been two days, sister, and you finally woke up."

"Two days..."

Hancock muttered to himself and sat blankly on the bed.

Seeing her sister like this, Sanda hesitated to speak, but found that she couldn't even bear to say a word of comfort.

Unless Lynch stands in front of her again, any words of comfort will only sound harsh in her sister's ears...

After an unknown amount of time, Hancock lifted up the soft quilt and swayed slightly. Sanda wanted to help him, but she pushed him away.

Hancock wore black hair and sat barefoot on the edge of the bed. He raised his still pale face, but his eyes were completely different from before, showing a firmness.

"Where is she?" Hancock stood up and put on the red coat handed by Sanda.

"Who?" Sanda was startled for a moment, then woke up, "Princess Robin? Princess, she..."

Hancock paused barefoot and looked back.

Sanda whispered: "Sister, you have been sleeping these past two days, and the princess has not been eating or drinking, or even talking to anyone. Her state is very worrying..."

Hancock bit his lip and said, "Take me to her."

"Sister, you have to eat something first..." Sanda advised.

"Take me to her," Hancock repeated.

Her tone was not serious, but Sanda, who was familiar with her, knew that her sister could not hear any sound at this time, so she had to sigh secretly and take Hancock to find Robin.

Along the way, I met many soldiers who protected the country and members of the pirate group... When everyone saw Hancock, they immediately exclaimed.

"Lord Snake Ji, wake up!"

"The Empress looks so haggard...my heart is about to break!"

The women of Nine Snakes hugged each other and cried, and gave way one after another.

Hancock had no expression on his face, turning a deaf ear to these noises, and quickly followed Sanda to the side hall where Robin was resting in the Nine Snakes Palace.

In the side hall, Robin sat by the open window, staring blankly at the distant sky, his eyes a little hollow.

Next to her, stood a black armored phantom. At this moment, he turned his head, his narrow eyes shimmering, and looked at the two Hancocks who were walking into the hall.

Marigrud saw the eldest and second sisters coming in and said in surprise: "Sister, are you awake?"

"..." Hancock grabbed the third sister's bandaged arm and looked at it. Mary explained: "It's a little burned, but I'm almost healed."

Hancock let go of his hand and went to uncover the injury under the bandage behind the second sister's right shoulder next to him.

"Sister..." Sang Da was stunned and comforted, "I applied the herbal medicine, and I also have the recovery power of the phantom beast species, so everything will be fine."

My sister noticed such a small thing the first time she looked at me after she woke up, right?

"It's all because of me..." Robin by the window looked at the sky and suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse and dry. "It was me who harmed everyone..."

Hancock grasped the bandage on Sanda's back and quickly released it after he realized what was happening.

Mary looked at Robin in surprise. In the past two days, the princess had been ignoring people as if her heart had died. This was the first time she spoke.

Snap, Sangda felt a drop of warm liquid shatter on the bandage on his back, and said in surprise: "Sister——"

When she and Mary looked over, Hancock had already turned his head and wiped his face. He walked up to Robin and "B.I.B" with red eyes, bit his lip and said, "No, it's all my fault."

Robin turned around numbly and saw Hancock's red eyes and haggard and pale face, and felt a pang in his heart.

"Those four navy were able to accurately ambush that island because our pirate ship's whereabouts were exposed," Hancock trembled and blamed himself. "When we finally returned, I gave the order without much thought.

The sea snake went straight into the windless zone... It was because of this that it was so stupid that it took the initiative to fall into the navy's trap... It's all my fault..."

Robin shook his head slowly and murmured to himself: "If it weren't for me...the navy wouldn't have been able to deal with the two kings of the Shichibukai like this..."

"B.I.B" looked on and said, "It doesn't make sense to talk about this now. What matters is what happens in the future."

Hancock's eyes were firm and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to save him!"

"..." Robin didn't react at all to this, and just looked at "B.I.B".

The latter said calmly: "I am willing to sacrifice myself to keep you away from danger."

"..." Hancock turned his head and stared at the black armored ghost, with tears and anger appearing in his beautiful eyes, "But I don't want to!"

"Who agrees that you took it upon yourself to sacrifice for us?! Have you ever thought about our feelings?!" She gritted her teeth and said, "Obviously, all you need to do is send Sanda and Mary away..." Tears lingered on the Empress.

There were tears on Madara's cheeks. She looked at the reflection of the man in front of her sadly and said sadly, "Don't you know... we would rather die with you than watch you alone, you..."

Robin's dry eye sockets were also red, he clenched his palms and lowered his head in silence.

"B.I.B" was also silent for a while, and then said: "As for the main body, I would rather be hated by you, but also want you to be safe."

"You fart!" Hancock yelled, wiping away tears, "I don't want to hear that."

"People who sacrifice themselves are great, and the feeling of greatness should be very good." The black armor said quietly, "And those who live with endless self-blame and regret are very pitiful."

"..." Hancock gritted his teeth, "I don't need pity."

"B.I.B" shook his head, "I mean..."

It glanced at Hancock and the tearful Robin, "If it weren't for me, neither Robin nor Hancock would have had to face this desperate situation. If I couldn't protect you two, the main body would

I have to live in endless self-blame and regret my whole life... Isn't this pitiful?"

"So you sacrifice yourself without permission?" Hancock's tears kept rolling down and he forced himself to sneer, "How great."

"You don't want to... resent yourself for the rest of your life..." Robin murmured hoarsely, "We don't want to either..."

"B.I.B" is speechless. This is a dead end. If it cannot protect Hancock and Robin, its main body will blame itself, and it is willing to sacrifice itself to send them away, and they will suffer and regret...
