Amazon Lily, a nation hidden within the Calm Belt, was a land shrouded in mystery. Its isolated location and natural barriers made it virtually impervious to invasion.

For the men of the world, it was a legendary paradise, a land inhabited solely by women: the Island of Women.

The nation's ruler was a pirate, known as the "Empress" Boa Hancock, renowned as the world's most beautiful woman.

She was also the only female member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Today, Hancock was noticeably agitated.

Inside the grand palace of Amazon Lily, Hancock sat on her throne, a dark expression on her face, biting her fingernail in thought.

After a while, a small, elderly woman scurried into the throne room.

This was Gloriosa, the former empress of Amazon Lily, known affectionately as Nyon-ba, now serving as Hancock's advisor.

As soon as Nyon-ba entered, Hancock's captivating face softened into a smile, her beautiful eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Even after all this time, the Snake Princess is still so breathtaking! Nyon-ba thought, swallowing nervously. Leaning on her cane, she reported, "We've inquired with the Marines about the incident in Mary Geoise, but..."

"They refused to divulge any information."

Hancock's beautiful features instantly hardened. In a flash, she was on her feet, her elegant leg lashing out like a whip, striking Nyon-ba.

The startled advisor was sent flying out the window. Hancock's furious voice echoed through the palace. "Then what was the point of coming back?!"

Nyon-ba, rubbing her aching back, limped back into the throne room. "Must you treat an old woman with such disrespect...?" she muttered.

Hancock's face darkened. She grabbed the tiny old woman, ready to throw her out again. Nyon-ba, panicked, quickly explained,

"Calm down, Snake Princess! If someone really did kidnap Celestial Dragons, the Government wouldn't just spread the news!"

"Even if they did, the news wouldn't reach Amazon Lily here in the Calm Belt."

Hancock's expression softened slightly. After a moment, she released Nyon-ba, who breathed a sigh of relief.

After a moment of contemplation, Hancock issued a command. "Inform the Kuja Pirates. Prepare for departure."

Nyon-ba was taken aback. "Where to?"

"To Sabaody Archipelago. I need to confirm the truth about this Celestial Dragon kidnapping."

Nyon-ba's eyes widened in alarm. She jumped in front of Hancock, pleading, "Sabaody is crawling with Celestial Dragons! Aren't you afraid?"

Hancock stopped. Just as Nyon-ba thought she had reconsidered, a sharp pain shot through her backside!

Bam!

The unfortunate advisor was sent flying again, a trail of smoke marking her trajectory as she disappeared into the distant forest.

The haughty Empress, looking in the direction Nyon-ba had flown, scoffed. "No one questions my decisions!"

The Kuja Pirates, Boa Hancock's Warlord crew, set sail in secrecy, their destination: Sabaody Archipelago.
