Chapter 176: Chapter 113.2 : Yamato vs Hancock!!
"That's food I prepared for Ian-sama!"
Hancock's face instantly darkened.
"Is that so?"
Yamato nodded and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "But what Ian owns is also mine, and what's mine is Ian's. It's always been like this."
This girl, she's doing it on purpose!
It's not the first time, after all.
Whenever Hancock tries to get close, Yamato always pops up to interrupt.
Ian turned his head and looked toward Black Maria, who was not far off.
The blonde giant beauty waved at Ian with a smile, her mouth silently moving, as if saying, "Ian, don't be a flirt."
You're a good one, Maria.
Once I overthrow the old man and take the throne, I'll appoint you as my bed-warming maid. Let's see what you'll say then.
"…"
Hancock's face instantly went pale at Yamato's words, and she looked at Ian with teary eyes. "Lord Ian!"
Ian felt a bead of sweat forming on his back.
"Hehe, Ian," Suddenly, Ian's elbow was nudged. He turned around to find Law, who grinned and teased, "Aren't you going to say something?"
Ian grabbed the back of this guy's head and threw him flying.
Even as he was thrown, Law was still laughing loudly.
This bastard was getting more and more cheerful every day, but Ian still missed the days when he always had that serious, somber face.
In the brief moment that Ian turned, he saw Viola making an "OK" sign with both hands, inverted over her eyes.
The young girl seemed a bit excited. In this situation, no one was speaking, and without using the ability to read minds, it would be impossible to understand what was going on!
Ian shot her a sharp glare, and only then did she awkwardly lower her hands.
Honestly, Ian didn't think Yamato did anything wrong, or rather, she should've done this.
Otherwise, Ian would've started questioning his own life. That would mean he had no place in Yamato's heart, and she didn't feel possessive at all.
But Hancock was a different issue.
She could really die from this.
She was a future top-tier calamity-level powerhouse, and it was also related to the Amazon Lily. They would need her help to capture the wild beasts.
Ian didn't know what to say in this situation.
But at that moment, Jack lowered his head.
Big Brother Ian was troubled!
Damn it!
These two annoying women actually dared to trouble Brother Ian!
Jack was furious.
However, no matter how angry he was, he wouldn't dare to take it out on his third respected elder sister, Yamato.
So, Warrior Jack came up with a plan.
"Can't you see that Brother Ian is troubled?"
Jack shouted loudly, "If you really want to compete, then let's settle this with strength!"
Ian's face immediately darkened.
He even saw Jack give him a slight nod, a self-satisfied smile on his face, as if to say, "Leave it to me, Brother Ian. You can rest easy."
You really are a thoughtful little brother.
I can totally relax now.
You're probably hoping the conflict won't be intense enough, right?
Hancock's eyes instantly brightened.
That's right. Lord Ian had said that strength is the most important in the Beasts Pirates. The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest!
So, if she defeats this annoying white-haired one, could she take her place and continue her sweet and loving relationship with Lord Ian?
"Just what I wanted!"
Yamato even nodded faster, agreeing. She looked at Hancock, her chin slightly raised, eyes full of disdain.
Most of the time, she was rather silly, but at this moment, she looked just like the cruel villainess in a romance novel, humiliating the innocent heroine, "Are you ready to get beaten?"
"I'll prove to Lord Ian," Hancock stood up straight. Even though she was three years younger than Yamato, she was significantly shorter. However, that didn't stop her from exuding an imposing aura, "Who the better person really is!"
Ian felt a headache coming on.
As expected, office romance was a big taboo, especially when it involved three people.
But…
Ian's eyes darkened.
Since they wanted to fight, then let's make it a proper battle.
As the fishmen and mermaids around the large ship were happily frolicking, a space on the deck had already been cleared.
Two exceptionally beautiful young women stood facing each other, surrounded by a circle of people.
Ian sat on the side of the ship, quietly watching.
"Hey, Lord Ian," Law's voice, laced with sarcasm, came from beside him. This guy had seated himself next to Ian. "Two stunning beauties are fighting for you. How does it feel?"
"If you keep talking, I'll throw you into the sea," Ian replied flatly.
"Scary. Got it."
Law made a zipper motion across his mouth with his hand, indicating he'd zipped it up.
But the grin on his face never disappeared.
He simply kept watching the two young women.
Actually, he was also curious—who was stronger at this moment, Yamato or Hancock?
In the original story, both were among the top female powerhouses, only second to Charlotte Linlin.
Yamato, with her mastery of Haki, was likely stronger. But now, between the thirteen-year-old Yamato and the sixteen-year-old Hancock, who was stronger?
"Don't expect me to go easy on you!"
Yamato drew the iron club from her back. The Takeru No. 2 immediately turned crystal clear and white as her strength flowed into it, emitting a bone-chilling cold.
This woman was always pestering Ian, more annoying than the women on Amazon Lily or the mermaids on Fish-Man Island!
She would be taught a harsh lesson!
With that thought, an uncontrollable surge of violent energy began to radiate from Yamato, heading straight for Hancock.
But at the same time...
"I'll turn you into a statue."
Hancock flicked her long, ink-black hair, her voice cold.
When facing anyone other than Ian, her attitude was always indifferent.
But contrary to her cold words, an equally overwhelming force surged from her slender body, clashing with Yamato's Conqueror's Haki.
