Transmigrated into One Piece world with a Gift Pack
Chapter 143 - Approaching Danger

Amazon Lily,

Hancock lay in her bed, sweating, struggling to breathe while her entire face flushed red. SanderSonia and MarieGold looked at Hancock in worry.

As for Elder Nyon, her complexion changed when she observed Hancock's condition. She heard the latter's mumble. "I can't breathe...am I going to die?"

"Yes," Elder Nyon replied in a grave tone.

"What? Elder Nyon this isn't something to joke about!" Sandersonia and Marigold exploded in anger and warned her not to joke. But Elder Nyon's next words, "I'm not", made them realize the grave situation they are in.

"How did this happen?" Elder Nyon placed the hand on her head in dismay.

"Elder Nyon, do you know what's happening to Elder Sis?"

"The former empresses suffered from the same illness before they died. I too caught it but survived as I left the country in time! Now, Hebihime suffers from the same illness: Love Sickness!"

"Love Sickness?" Both Hancock sisters revealed a bewildering expression.

"Yes. Hebihime, look at this article!" Elder Nyon showed the Newspaper that was circulated today with a striking title, 'The Strongest Marine'.

But, what caught Hancock's attention is Blaize's handsome figure in a marine outfit confronting a huge Azure Dragon, Kaido. Much to everyone's shock, Hancock sat upright and snatched the newspaper from Nyon's hand.

"Elder Sis...Are you okay?" Startled by her sudden action, Sandersonia and Marigold asked with concern.

Elder Nyon's face twitched as she knew what this means. To save Hancock, they have no choice but to call Blaize.

Marine Headquarters,

As soon as Blaize came out of the Fleet Admiral's office, his Den Den Mushi rang. Seeing it's an unfamiliar call, he was surprised a little. "Hello..."

"Hello. It's Elder Nyon."

"Oh Elder Nyon. What is it?" Blaize spoke, remembering he left his contact before leaving Amazon Lily.

"Blaize-kun, I need your help. Can you come to Amazon Lily?" Elder Nyon requested.

"What happened?" Blaize asked, confused.

"Hancock is suffering from an illness, I think only you can help."

'Don't tell me...' Blaize suddenly thought of the Love Sickness. "Actually, I was put in charge to escort Hancock for the first Warlords gathering. Even if you didn't call, I would have got there in a day or two."

"Good! It's for the best for Hancock to leave the Amazon Lily for a few days. I will inform Hancock about your arrival!"

"Ok. I will reach there in a few hours, Elder Nyon." Saying this, Blaize ended the call.

After informing his unit to rest as he's more than enough to escort Hancock, Blaize left the Headquarters by creating a huge firebird.

Amazon Lily,

Blaize reached the Amazon Lily around dusk. When he entered the Kuja palace, he was welcomed by a large number of dishes cooked just for him.

As for Hancock, she looked extremely beautiful clad in a purple outfit with a cute smile hung on her face. Unlike in the original series, she didn't behave extremely as she did in the original timeline as soon as she saw him.

But, she avoided looking him in the eye and had a tinge of blush on her face like a young girl in love.

Blaize didn't know how to react. In fact, he also likes Hancock not just because she's beautiful but because of her softer and compassionate side. He wants to spoil her!

But, he wasn't in hurry to accept the feelings as he first want to feel and take some time to realize them. He wants to make sure he doesn't love her just because of her beauty.

"Hancock, I didn't think we would meet again so soon. How are you doing?"

"I am good!" Hancock replied but she quickly turned shy.

Next, Blaize enjoyed the huge feast prepared for them. During the feast, Elder Nyon asked, "I am surprised that you fought that monster Kaido alone!"

"You know Kaido?"

"I know him long before he became the Emperor of the Sea and how strong he is! Anyone with little knowledge of the New World would know his notorious reputation."

"He's indeed strong. My attacks did nothing but scratch him." Blaize said swallowing a huge meat piece.

"About the Gathering of Warlords, since it's the first time it will take place in Sabaody. Hancock, we will depart in two days."

"Ok" Hancock replied as soon as Blaize spoke.

Blaize didn't stay in the Kuja palace or city rejecting Hancock's insistence and went to the jungle outside of the city. He needs to utilize his time wisely and train.

He doesn't want to taste defeat again. It frustrates him more than anything. Furthermore, a huge crisis is approaching his way.

Two days passed quickly,

Blaize left the Amazon Lily with Hancock while the Kuja pirates accompanied the latter for her safety. Hancock didn't care as she trusts Blaize very much.

Elder Nyon watched as their ship left the Amazon Lily. She thought in her heart. 'All of the previous Empresses died because they tried to suppress their feelings by distancing themselves from their object of desire.

By going with Blaize, Hancock won't suffer the same fate.'

The return journey wasn't so boring as Hancock accompanied him. Blaize and Hancock conversed during the entire course, both sharing their past and good memories.

Blaize told about his ambition: defeating the strongest man in the world—Whitebeard. And, separating Marines from World Government control.

"You will definitely do it, I believe in you, Blaize!" Hancock spoke in a shy tone.

Blaize smiled but thought in his heart 'I know I can do it but the problem is I don't have time.' There's a reason for his worries as he was feeling uneasy over the past two days.

He knew his senses won't lie and what this warning means. Some people are getting impatient. It won't be long before the World Government make their move.

This uneasy feeling didn't bring fear but only excitement to Blaize but what troubles him is, will it affect the people around him like Regis, Rosinante, Kuina, and Hancock.

Anyway, he can't stop what's coming. He can only face it head-on!
