Bepo led all the islands in the direction his captain had instructed, to make a brief stop before continuing. Luffy was in the scientist's laboratory while this was happening, since he was quite interested in the research on how they transformed the animals from these islands that Shiki had captured into powerful beasts.

It seemed that all those who wanted to avenge Shiki were contained, and the next day they ended up joining Luffy's fleet since they didn't have much choice. But Luffy smiled satisfied; there were at least 1000 men that Shiki had secretly recruited, and this would make a good army if they were properly trained.

Finally, the islands arrived at the agreed location, and Luffy left the island and descended to the sea, where the Kuja pirates' ship was stationed. Approaching, he saw the people waiting for his arrival, Hancock looked at him with sparkles in her eyes while standing next to her sisters.

Luffy landed softly, despite some pirates questioning why he was there, they did not raise the issue seeing Hancock waiting for him.

"Hello..." Luffy commented after landing.

"Luffy!!!" She exclaimed, before coughing and trying to appear tougher, placing her hand on her waist, her voice shifted from excited to a more forced tone as if she was trying to talk normally, but at the same time, it was noticeable that she was forcing it. "I'm glad you've arrived, Monkey D. Luffy, we need to talk!" She said as her sisters sighed, accustomed to Hancock's volatile behavior over the last few days.

"Yes, I'm here for that..." Luffy spoke, a bit lost, not knowing why Hancock was acting like this, if she liked him as he imagined, there was no reason to act so tough and in such a forced manner.

"Come with me." She said in a final tone, to follow her to the cabin.

"Sister... are you going to talk to him alone?" Marigold asked.

"Yes, this is a matter that only concerns me and him." Hancock spoke, and Luffy scratched his head even more at what seemed to be a mystery beyond the possible alliance made between them.

Luffy followed Hancock, and in the room, a small table with chairs, where Hancock was going to sit, however, what caught Luffy's attention were the posters of him hanging on the wall of the empress's room and even some sheets with stick figure drawings of a couple and two children looking happy.

'Hey, what's going on here?!' Luffy was a bit scared to be honest.

"Sit down..." Hancock spoke with the same forced voice, and Luffy calmly sat in front of her.

"I'll be honest, we are interested in our alliance, but there's a condition..." Hancock spoke.

"I'm listening, Hancock." Luffy spoke, and this seemed like an arrow through Hancock's heart.

'He called me by my name!' She said internally while striking a pose, feeling her heart being hit.

'She is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen, but this is definitely strange and hard to get used to...' Luffy murmured, observing Hancock's reaction.

"Well, like any alliance, there is only one way to conclude the pact..." Hancock spoke, looking at Luffy with bright eyes. "Which is a marriage!" She again had the passionate voice she always had.

"Well, that's expected since we spent days on that island, I always intended to marry you, Hancock." Luffy spoke with a smile to the woman this time, he intended to make her his wife, so he was not surprised.
