SLAP!
The room reverberated with the sharp sound of the slap. Maxieno, who was taken aback by the unexpected slap, blinked in astonishment. Never before in his life had he been slapped by a woman. Even though he had broken numerous women's hearts, none of them dared to raise a hand against him. An inexplicable fear instilled deep within their hearts as he was their leader, as well as the greatest dragon on Earth.
Yet, Suri… Maxieno lowered his hand and looked at the girl. Her features etched with pure rage. Did he do something wrong? Maxieno asked her to be his partner as Luffy said he had to express what he felt sincerely. And he already did… but why did he get a slap instead?
Getting slapped for the first time made Maxieno look perplexed. He still couldn't believe that someone had slapped him.
