The Kuja Pirates consist only of women from Amazon Lily. All crew members are women chosen from the Kuja tribe.
All members of the Kuja tribe are capable of using Haki, making them formidable opponents, even against Devil Fruit users.
They activated their Kenbunshoku Haki to be on guard when Rayleigh called his student.
When the mysterious young man arrived on the ship, all the crew members shivered and felt terrified. Through their Kenbunshoku Haki, they sensed how dangerous the other party was.
The mysterious young man was enveloped in a frightening negative energy as if all the world's evil resided in him.
Their natural response was to draw their bows and arrows wrapped in Busoshoku Haki, aiming at the mysterious young man.
"What kind of person did you bring, Rayleigh? In terms of evil aura alone, this person is more terrifying than the Tenryuubito."
Even Hancock didn't dare to show her usual dismissive attitude.
"Cough, I admit his aura is rather unsightly. But he's not a bad person, maybe..." Rayleigh said hesitantly at the end of his sentence.
His interaction with Eiji yielded nothing. He couldn't gauge the other party's personality as Eiji always maintained a cold expression. Furthermore, Shakky found no information about him before the attack on Mary Geoise, leaving Eiji's background shrouded in mystery.
"I cannot allow someone as dangerous as him to come to Amazon Lily, I hope you understand."
Realizing Rayleigh's hesitation, Hancock was even more resolute in her decision.
"Can you compromise, Boa Hancock? You hate the Tenryuubito, while I have killed several of them. Doesn't that make me indirectly your benefactor?"
Before Rayleigh could continue his efforts to persuade Hancock, Eiji took the initiative to remove his hood, revealing his white hair blowing in the wind.
"You... Chaosbringer!"
Seeing the handsome young man's face in front of her, Hancock was stunned.
The title of Chaosbringer was very famous now, due to his actions in Mary Geoise. People might not have heard of the name Yonko, but they certainly had heard of Kamiki Eiji.
Not only did he kill the Commander-in-Chief Kong, but also the Tenryuubito without exception. This achievement shocked the entire world and tarnished the World Government's dignity.
The Tenryuubito, usually untouchable and able to act as they wished without fearing any consequences, now had five of their members killed in Mary Geoise, which was considered the safest place in the world.
Kamiki Eiji was given a bounty of 3.5 billion belly in one go!
"Let Rayleigh train me in Haki at Amazon Lily. In return, I will protect Amazon Lily from any threats that come."
"Your promise is useless. I am a Shichibukai; even the Marines are not allowed to approach Amazon Lily. Please find another place. If the World Government finds out you are hiding in Amazon Lily, my Shichibukai status will not stop them."
After overcoming her shock, Hancock raised her chin high while speaking and directly rejected the offer. Although she seemed arrogant, her tone was somewhat gentle.
In the past, she and her two sisters had been captured by the Tenryuubito and made into slaves. If not for Fisher Tiger freeing the slaves in Mary Geoise, Hancock and her sisters might still be slaves now.
Hancock's hatred towards the Tenryuubito was immense, so she had a good impression of people who dared to oppose their oppression, like Fisher Tiger, Luffy, and Eiji.
"The Shichibukai system won't last long. From what I know, one of the two new Admirals, Fujitora, will propose the dissolution of the Shichibukai at the upcoming Reverie meeting. I think the kings of various countries will agree to this proposal. After all, the former Shichibukai, Crocodile, abused his Shichibukai status to seize authority over the Kingdom of Alabasta."
"Other kings will worry whether the other Shichibukai will overthrow and seize their kingdoms."
Rayleigh, Hancock, and the others fell silent upon hearing Eiji's statement.
The Reverie is an event held every four years in Mary Geoise. The Reverie gathers all the rulers affiliated with the World Government to discuss current events and plans for the world's future.
"Don't try to scare me with uncertain information. I have never heard of this before." Hancock did not believe it right away.
"Is it true, Eiji?" Rayleigh asked concernedly.
He knew the danger Amazon Lily would face if Hancock's Shichibukai status was revoked.
The Marines would send an armada to capture Hancock, plus pirates who coveted her beauty.
"I am not lying. You can verify the truth of my words after the Reverie meeting. Boa Hancock, you should be more worried about Marshall D. Teach rather than the Marines."
Eiji agreed with Rayleigh's decision to choose Amazon Lily as a training place. That was why he was persuading Hancock.
"Kurohige? Why involve him suddenly?" Hancock frowned.
Kurohige had now replaced Shirohige as a Yonko. She did not understand Eiji's point.
"Hmm? Don't tell me..." Rayleigh vaguely guessed something.
"Kurohige has an unknown method to steal Devil Fruit powers from their users. You should have seen him steal the Gura Gura no Mi power from Shirohige during the Summit War, right?"
"That's right."
Hancock nodded at Eiji's words. That scene was still vividly etched in her memory.
"Kurohige can also transfer Devil Fruit powers to others. Now all the executives of his pirate crew are Devil Fruit users. Are you sure Kurohige is not interested in your Mero Mero no Mi power?"
"Sister!" 2x
Sandersonia and Marigold looked at Hancock worriedly after hearing Eiji's speculation.
"It's true, Shakky once said Kurohige Pirates have been hunting Devil Fruit users lately." Rayleigh said seriously.
"Are you not afraid to face Kurohige if he does attack Amazon Lily? Depending on your answer, I will allow you to come to Amazon Lily."
After calming her sisters and the others' worries, Hancock turned to look at Eiji.
Kurohige's Devil Fruit is the Yami Yami no Mi, which has the ability to neutralize other Devil Fruit powers. In short, he is the worst enemy for any Devil Fruit user.
"Yes. I even dared to attack Mary Geoise, Kurohige is not worth mentioning." Eiji said without changing his expression.
If it were Yonko like Kaido and Big Mom, he wouldn't be so confident. After all, even without Devil Fruits, their physical strength was beyond comprehension.
Shanks honed his Haki to the peak; his power came purely from himself.
Among the Yonko, Eiji had no confidence in winning against Kaido, Big Mom, and Shanks. But Kurohige was different.
Kurohige relied too much on his Devil Fruits; his Haki mastery was mediocre. Even if he had Haoshoku Haki, without achieving an advanced level and being able to use infusion, there was nothing to fear.
Kurohige could not break through Infinity!
"Alright, I hope you keep your promise."
Finally, Hancock agreed.
"Everyone, set the sails. We're going home."
"Understood, Captain!"
Following her instructions, the Kuja Pirates' crew returned to their positions, and the ship began to turn around and sail the sea.
"It seems my decision to train you brings other benefits." Rayleigh said, smiling.
"..."
Eiji did not argue. Then, he put on the cloak again to cover his face. After all, many ships were passing by, and it would be troublesome if someone reported his presence to the Marines.
