Chapter 10: The Three Boa Sisters Join The Group
Looking at the silent Hancock, Kahn didn't rush her.
Thirty years is a long time.
A person's life spans only a few decades.
If someone lives to ninety, then thirty years is a third of their life.
If life is shorter, thirty years is half of it.
Working for a stranger for thirty years, especially when neither party likes the other, isn't much different from being a slave.
However, slaves have no human rights, and their masters can kill them at will.
So, after a moment of silence and recalling the beatings she had endured, Hancock imagined the abuse they would suffer if they became slaves. The thought of the master cruelly abusing or even killing her sisters made her already delicate and pale face lose even more colour.
Terrified that this nightmare would become a reality, Hancock nodded vigorously to Kahn, "My lord, we are willing!"
Hearing her sister's words, the two younger sisters, who were trembling slightly, showed bright looks of joy in their eyes.
If it weren't for the fear of being beaten in front of strangers, they would have urged their sister to agree.
Clearly, they were all scared of the beatings they had endured.
If not for their older sister's daily comfort after each beating, they might have been broken.
As long as they weren't beaten, they would do anything.
"Very well, I will rescue you now."
Kahn, who had been reading Hancock's thoughts, knew she was genuinely willing to trade thirty years for freedom rather than planning to escape later. He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
A faint blue light appeared on his body, and his short hair began to move as if blown by an invisible wind.
Wrapped in a telekinetic aura, Kahn looked like a god in control of everything.
With a lift of his palm, the bars of the iron cage were broken by invisible hands.
Stepping into the cage, Kahn approached Hancock, who was sitting on the ground hugging her two younger sisters and reached out to touch the bomb collar around her neck.
Feeling her trembling through the cold collar, Kahn smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry, I can unlock it without a key."
Click - boom!
As if responding to Kahn, the bomb collar made a snapping sound like the bars of the iron cage.
As the collar shattered, the bomb inside prepared to detonate.
At that moment, the blue psychic shield enveloped the bomb collar, tore it off Hancock's neck, and sent it flying to the ceiling more than ten meters high.
When the psychic shield disappeared, a huge explosion resounded.
The violent blast was blocked by the psychic shield.
Crack - bang bang!
Kahn then removed the bomb collars from Hancock's younger sisters, Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold.
Three consecutive explosions followed, likely attracting the attention of the villains on Island 1.
"Don't struggle. I'll use my fruit ability to get you out of here."
After removing the bomb collars, Kahn lifted the three Boa sisters with telekinesis and flew through the huge hole in the ceiling.
Soon, he left the auction house with the three sisters.
Over ten minutes later, those who had been stunned by Conqueror's Haki and the surveillance Den Den Mushi began to wake up.
By then, Kahn had brought the three Boa sisters to meet Robin.
Robin, aware of Kahn's plan, asked without hesitation upon seeing him return with the three sisters, "Are they the Kuja Warriors that Master is looking for?"
On the contrary, Robin cooperates with Kahn and deliberately asks why he brought three little girls back.
Kahn explained his deal with Hancock.
Due to her fear, Hancock couldn't use her Observation Haki to sense emotions and realize Kahn and Robin were lying.
"The explosion just now must have attracted a lot of attention. Let's head back to the hotel first."
Before Robin could introduce herself to the three Boa sisters, Kahn lifted them with telekinesis and flew towards the hotel street.
Using his unique perception, Kahn avoided everyone along the way and smoothly returned to the sixth area.
"...Everyone, please introduce yourselves."
After returning to the suite, Kahn asked the Boa sisters to wash up in the bathroom.
Once they had showered and changed into maid outfits provided by Robin, Kahn looked at them and introduced himself with a smile, "My name is Cross Kahn. This is my personal maid, Nico Robin. How about you?"
"My name is Boa Hancock," she replied.
Because her two younger sisters were still shy and withdrawn, Hancock introduced them, "These two are my younger sisters. The one on the left is my second sister, Boa Sandersonia. You can call her Sonia. The one on the right is my third sister, Boa Marigold. You can call her Mary."
"Got it."
Kahn nodded slightly and said, "For the next thirty years, you will be my maids like Robin."
"From now on, you will be under Robin's guidance, and you will call me Master like she does."
"I understand, M...Master," Hancock replied timidly.
"Don't be so nervous. I won't beat you like the traffickers."
Seeing Hancock become tense due to the change in address, Kahn smiled and comforted her, "If I intended to treat you as slaves, I wouldn't have removed your bomb collars."
"And with my strength, even if I wanted to harm you, you wouldn't be able to resist, right?"
"Stay close to Robin and learn from her. Once you recover, I will teach you powerful physical skills and help you improve your strength."
"Only by improving your vision and strength can you avoid such situations in the future."
Looking at Kahn with a gentle smile, Hancock seemed to sense his sincerity. Her tense body slowly relaxed.
Her delicate and beautiful cheeks, now clean and free of stains, showed a forced smile as she repeated from the bottom of her heart, "I understand, Master."
Seeing Hancock's reluctant smile and her sisters clinging to her arms, Kahn and Robin exchanged a silent look.
"They're in your hands, Robin," Kahn said ambiguously.
"Leave it to me, Master."
Robin nodded slightly, understanding Kahn's meaning.
The three Boa sisters were deeply traumatized.
Even with their newfound freedom, these shadows wouldn't disappear quickly.
It was up to Robin, their senior, to help them through this.
