I'm Not Interested in Devil Fruits

"Who cares about the life or death of this trash!"

Hancock, having burst through the ceiling and descended from above, stood atop the rubble. Beneath lay the captain of the Glacier Pirate Crew from earlier.

In response to Giorno's question, Hancock replied casually, her tone devoid of any warmth, before resuming her search of the surroundings with a frown.

When her gaze fell upon the Kuja warriors, some unconscious, others injured, she paused momentarily, then lightly lifted her foot and "stomped" down.

'Click, click, click…' The rubble shattered into countless pieces, revealing the Glacier Pirate Crew captain beneath, now spitting blood after Hancock's foot connected.

Hancock ignored the struggling pirate, instead continuing to use her Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki) to scan for any nearby movement.

"You can't escape! Come out now!" Hancock coldly called out to the empty surroundings.

Hidden somewhere in the shadows, Jewelry Bonney, her pink hair drenched in cold sweat, cursed inwardly. How could this beautiful woman catch up so quickly? It was as if she had opened a third eye, bypassing all the tricks and illusions Bonney had set, relentlessly tracking her every move…

Bonney suppressed her breathing, stealthily moving forward…

"Sister, that's..."

Marigold's jaw dropped in shock as she stared at the green-haired girl in her big sister's hands.

"Is that really Sonia?"

There was no mistaking it, Mari thought. This had to be her second sister, Sonia.

Robin, too, wore an expression of disbelief. How could it be Sonia?

Sonia, now resembling a child, was being carried as if she were a handbag…

"You mean this one?"

Hancock casually placed the second sister on the ground. "Yes, this is Sonia. She encountered a strange Devil Fruit user and was shrunk."

'Cough! Cough!' 

The Glacier Pirate Crew captain, after spitting blood, staggered to his feet, his eyes bloodshot. He gripped his Longblade and growled in madness, "You humiliated me this much…"

"Is it really Sonia?!"

Not just Marigold, but even the Kuja warriors who were regaining consciousness or nursing minor injuries gathered around, all displaying shocked expressions as they looked at Sonia, now the size of a small child. Many instinctively lowered their heads.

Sonia, now a small green-haired girl, covered her face in embarrassment…

Meanwhile, the tall, thin Glacier Pirate Crew captain, with his Longblade raised, roared, "Die!"

He slashed at the seemingly defenseless Sonia, but Liam stepped forward, catching his wrist, and casually tossed him far away with a loud crash against the wall.

Sonia looked up at Liam.

Liam asked, "Male or female?"

Sonia, confused, replied, "Female."

Bang! Bang! Bang! 

From the deep shadows ahead, a series of sharp whistling sounds approached, as several flying slashes effortlessly sliced through stone columns, heading straight for Liam and the others.

"Watch out!" The Kuja warriors shouted.

Liam, lifting Sonia under her arms, took a few calculated steps backward. The deadly slashes passed just over Sonia, clipping some of her green hair.

"Mm..." Liam asked again, keeping his eyes level, "Young or old?"

Sonia, still being carried, thought for a moment and replied uncertainly, "It seemed…" She suddenly glanced to the side and saw the pirate with the Longblade rushing at them.

The Glacier Pirate Crew captain swung his blade again, but Hancock raised her foot and stopped it mid-air with a loud "clank."

"Ten Petals," Robin murmured, her fingers moving slightly, causing ten flower-like arms to sprout from the Glacier Pirate Crew captain's body, locking and twisting his joints. A series of painful cracking sounds followed as the captain screamed in agony, "Ahhh!"

Hancock and Robin took turns subduing the bounty-89 Million Pirate, while Liam and Sonia continued their casual conversation.

With their presence, the Kuja warriors relaxed. Those with minor injuries picked up weapons and began searching the area, ensuring no pirates remained.

Marigold, arms crossed, walked up to the small green-haired girl in Liam's arms, staring at her closely. Occasionally, she would mutter in awe, "Mm, hmm..."

"What are you doing?" Sonia couldn't take it anymore.

"Just amazed," Marigold answered with a playful smile. "I've never seen you like this from this angle! I guess that means I'm older than you now? Hehe…"

Sonia sighed in exasperation, realizing that her younger sister was teasing her again.

"Ah!!"

A scream suddenly echoed.

Robin laughed, "Did you catch them?"

She hadn't even used her Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki), but being familiar with Liam's methods, she had already anticipated his actions.

"What?" Sonia, Marigold, and the other Kuja warriors were puzzled.

Hancock looked in the direction of the scream. Soon, a pink-haired woman was "floating" in mid-air, kicking and cursing, "Who is it? A pervert who ate the Suke Suke no Mi (Clear-Clear Fruit)? Show yourself! I'll kill you! Let go of me!!!"

At the same time, she was furious and confused: her Age Age Fruit, which should have worked on the person, had no effect!

No, she hadn't even touched the person yet!

Why?

She clearly had grabbed this person, but she couldn't feel them!

If only she could touch them once…

"Damn it!"

Bonney struggled and was casually thrown to the ground in front of Hancock and Liam.

Looking up, she saw a group of well-trained female warriors, some of whom had drawn bows aimed directly at her.

B.I.B. silently returned to its original form. Robin tilted her head at it, acknowledging its successful execution. Liam shook his head, thinking, this girl is like a reverse-aging child playing house… She knew B.I.B. and Liam were one and the same.

Hancock, expressionless, walked over and pressed her high-heeled shoe down on Bonney's face. "You're the one who turned my younger sister into this?"

'Bang!' Bonney was pinned to the ground, her eyes nearly shooting fire in anger.

She sneered, "So you know, and yet you still dare to get so close?"

"Really?" Robin waved her hand, and several flower arms sprouted from Bonney's body, attempting to restrict her movements.

But it was too late.

Bonney's hand touched Hancock's ankle.

The skin on Hancock's ankle visibly wrinkled at an accelerating pace…
