Chapter 455 Hancock and Luffy

Just as Ling Tian was anxiously shuttling through the jungle, his figure flashed quickly among the dense vegetation like a ghost.

The surrounding trees were like green barriers, quickly passing by him. His sharp eyes scanned every corner where people might hide like an eagle, trying his best to find Hancock and Luffy.

His heartbeat raced in time with his running, and every step was filled with the fear of an impending conflict.

Suddenly, a sound came from afar. The sound was like a sharp arrow, which broke the original silence of the forest with extremely penetrating force.

The silence was like a mirror, ruthlessly shattered by the sound, and the fragments scattered in the air.

The sound echoed violently in the air. At first, it was just a faint sound. As the wind blew, it gradually became clearer and came faintly in the direction of Ling Tian.

"Why is it that my ability has no effect on you?" Only a woman's voice was heard, and there was deep shock in that voice. Every word seemed to be infused with powerful force, like a stone thrown with force, hitting the calm lake surface hard.

These "stones" created ripples on this mysterious island, spreading outward in circles, startling the birds perched on the branches. They flapped their wings in panic, trying to escape the sudden noise.

The surrounding leaves seemed to be frightened and rustled, as if they were shaking at the unusual sound.

This was undoubtedly Hancock's voice. Ling Tian's heart felt as if it was grabbed by an invisible hand and tightened instantly.

His brows were tightly knitted together, and his eyes flashed with a hint of nervousness and anxiety. He thought to himself, "Oh no, they really met. Luffy is impulsive, and Hancock is arrogant and competitive. It will be terrible if they fight. I hope we can stop them in time. If we are too late, the consequences will be disastrous."

His pace became faster, bringing up a gust of wind that blew the surrounding flowers and plants to the ground, as if to make way for him.

Without any hesitation, the sound was like a charge horn. Hearing the sound, Ling Tian immediately ran towards the direction where the sound came from like an arrow.

His feet were like springs. Every time he pushed the ground, he unleashed amazing force, leaving deep footprints on the ground.

His posture was agile and swift, as fast as a cheetah hunting its prey. His body rubbed violently against the air, making a "whoosh" sound.

His speed was extremely fast, and his figure turned into a blurry black shadow in the woods, which shuttled between the tree trunks and branches like a ghost.

Wherever he passed, there was a whistling sound of wind, which was like the roaring of raging waves in the woods. The surrounding branches were pulled wantonly by the strong wind, and the leaves fluttered down like a green snowstorm.

His eyes revealed an extreme eagerness, and his gaze was like a burning flame, staring straight ahead.

When Ling Tian finally arrived at the scene of the incident panting, he suddenly stopped, leaned forward slightly, supported his hands on his knees, and gasped heavily.

When he looked up, the scene in front of him made him feel a little amused and helpless.

Hancock was standing there in shock, her beautiful face slightly distorted in astonishment. Her usual noble and cold demeanor as a queen, as high and mighty as a god, was completely shattered at this moment.

Hancock widened her eyes that were like deep gemstones, her pupils shrank sharply due to shock, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

That gaze was like a materialized arrow, staring straight at Luffy, as if trying to find the answer from him.

In her eyes, Luffy was like a freak who broke the rules of the world, making her feel as if she had seen the most incredible and unreasonable thing in the world.

Her pretty face was slightly stiff with astonishment, and the corners of her mouth, which were originally slightly upturned, were now drooping. Her noble and cold temperament was shattered by this sudden accident.

Luffy, on the other hand, stood in front of Hancock with a carefree look on his tanned face, and one hand kept scratching his short black hair, making it a little messy.

The iconic straw hat on his head swayed slightly with his movements, and the shadow under the brim of the hat swayed on his face. He tilted his head, with innocent doubts in his eyes, like a little lamb who had lost his way.

"Hey, you weird woman, you suddenly stopped moving. Are you playing some new game?" Luffy muttered, his childish and hoarse voice spreading in the air, "But I don't have time to play with you." As he spoke, he wrinkled his nose and spit on the ground. He looked so nonchalant, like an ignorant child who was unaware of the complexity of the world.

Seeing this scene, Ling Tian shook his head helplessly. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly and he sighed secretly in his heart.

He knew very well how powerful Hancock's ability was. It was a power like a mysterious magic, a charming power that could make countless people fall at her feet.

Whenever Hancock uses this ability, it's as if an invisible pink mist spreads in the air. This mist, with its intoxicating fragrance and charming magic, quietly penetrates into people's hearts and draws out their deepest desires and admirations.

The eyes of those who are bewitched will instantly become blurred, as if they have fallen into the sweetest dream. Their reason is completely blinded, and they willingly become Hancock's captives, kneeling at her feet, allowing her to order them around and obeying her every command, like puppets with their souls taken away, with only obsession with her left.

To be honest, Ling Tian dared to assert that in this vast world of pirates full of all kinds of strange people and things, 99% of people would fall for Hancock's trick.

No matter whether they are experienced old pirates or newcomers who are just starting out and curious about the world, as long as they feel this charming power, they will be fascinated without exception.

This force is like an invisible net. No matter you are a warrior as strong as an ox or a cunning and wise strategist, it is difficult to break free.

In front of this big net, most people are like fragile moths, flying without hesitation towards the seemingly beautiful but extremely dangerous flame.

However, there are always exceptions in the world. Only a small number of people with extremely strong wills as unshakable as steel, or those with special physiques and abilities can resist this kind of charm.

Luffy is obviously one of them, but he himself is unaware of it. He is like a child who has not been polluted by the world, his heart is as pure as a blank sheet of paper, without any distractions.

His world is filled with love of adventure, loyalty to his companions and yearning for freedom. This purity makes Hancock's charm seem useless in front of him.

He was like a free wind, nothing could restrain him, not even Hancock's terrifying ability.
