For Boa Hancock, the memories were a fresh wound. Captured and sold to the Celestial Dragons, she was forced to fight day in and day out in the gladiatorial arena.

When she reached sixteen, her blossoming beauty attracted unwanted attention from a Celestial Dragon, nearly resulting in her violation.

On their first day in Mary Geoise, the sisters learned the true extent of the Celestial Dragons' depravity. These creatures viewed humans as little more than playthings, They represented absolute power, and defiance meant not only personal ruin but also the destruction of one's homeland. .

The women of Amazon Lily were as rare and sought-after as the mermaids of Fishman Island. Both locations were notoriously difficult to access: one nestled within the treacherous Calm Belt, teeming with Sea Kings, the other a kingdom submerged ten thousand meters below the surface..

It was only thanks to the fish-man Fisher Tiger, who scaled the Red Line and infiltrated Mary Geoise, that Hancock and her sisters were liberated from their torment.

While they escaped physical violation, the scars of their enslavement remained, etched deep within their hearts and on their backs. The Hoof of the Soaring Dragon.

This mark was permanent, a curse that couldn't be removed. Even if the skin was excised, the brand would reappear on the newly regenerated flesh, an eternal reminder of their suffering.

"There's no need for panic. My position as a Warlord was earned through strength, not fear." Hancock's voice, though calming, carried an undercurrent of steel. Her Conqueror's Haki radiated outwards, reassuring her people.

"Sister's right. Even Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, has shown his hand. The Marines have bigger problems to worry about than us. Kaido's attack on Impel Down...whatever deal Doflamingo made with him, it must have been substantial for Kaido to personally invade."

"He won't let it rest. The Marines have a Yonko and the Revolutionary Army to contend with. The Emperors seek to control the New World, while Dragon aims to overthrow the World Government. Their goals partially align. Perhaps we can even be of assistance."

They, too, held a certain respect for the Marines, recognizing their role in maintaining order in a chaotic world. However, they felt nothing but contempt for the World Government. As Warlords, they were privy to the whispers of discontent within the Marine ranks, those who resented the World Government but were constrained by duty and the necessity of their strength.

The situation had changed. A new Warlord Fujitora... Ian, the Black-Winged Devil, a Marine Vice Admiral with the power of a Yonko, had risen through the ranks with meteoric speed. They had anticipated the abolishment of the Warlord system.

Yet, only Gecko Moria, Crocodile, and Doflamingo, those who had abused their power, had been removed. Hancock and Jinbe had become Warlords to protect their people. Mihawk sought worthy challenges, Kuma remained largely inactive.

Issho, Fujitora, the blind swordsman, sought to implement his own unique sense of justice. There was no cause for concern. Perhaps, with the World Government's downfall, they could even attain legitimate nationhood. Dragon hadn't targeted benevolent pirates. He had, in fact, taken down numerous corrupt nobles. Their goals aligned.
