Chapter 273 The Empress's Wrath
Her nose was high and straight, small and delicate, and her lips were as soft as flower petals, without a single wrinkle, as if time had left no trace on her face.
She wore a pair of snake-shaped gold earrings that shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight, as if two nimble little snakes were dancing beside her ears. She often wore a cheongsam-style dress, the cut of which was just right, perfectly outlining her devilish figure.
The slit design at the bottom of the cheongsam, in particular, perfectly showcased her long, straight, and delicate white legs.
Her legs were long and straight, her skin as white as snow, as delicate as silk, and as smooth as mutton-fat jade. Every step she took was like a fairy dancing gracefully, captivating and mesmerizing.
He stared wide-eyed at those legs, inwardly marveling: those legs were simply a masterpiece of God! He could swear to God that he could play with those legs for a lifetime and never get tired of them.
However, just as he was captivated by the allure of those legs, a soft exclamation suddenly rang out. This exclamation clearly caught the attention of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who all turned to look at him.
The moment their gazes fell upon Aini, everyone froze as if under a spell.
Whether it was Hawkeye Mihawk's sharp, eagle-like eyes, Bartholomew Kuma's honest face, or Boa Hancock's stunning beauty, they were all stunned by Aini's appearance.
Just then, the stranger's expression suddenly tightened, and his pupils contracted sharply as if stimulated by something, becoming as small as needle tips.
Clearly, Aini was not someone they could easily ignore, but rather someone they feared.
The "Eh?" came from Tashigi. Her gaze fell on Annie, who was staring intently at Boa Hancock's beautiful legs, as if she were frozen in place, unable to look away.
For reasons unknown, Tashigi unconsciously let out a disdainful sound.
However, she never expected that this small, disdainful remark would attract the attention of all the Shichibukai. In an instant, everyone's eyes were on her, catching Tashigi off guard and causing her to panic slightly.
After all, these Shichibukai members were all extremely powerful beings to Tashigi. It's no exaggeration to say that, apart from Basil Hawkins and Urouge, who were forcibly pushed into the fray by Enni, even if Smoker himself were to take action, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat them.
This shows that these people's strength is simply terrifying beyond imagination!
"Uh?"
Just then, Boa Hancock suddenly frowned, as if she had sensed something amiss. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and following her instincts, her gaze quickly locked onto Annie.
Annie's burning gaze, like a blazing flame, fell directly on Boa Hancock, as if trying to see through her clothes and completely pierce through her body.
This undisguised aggression made Boa Hancock very uncomfortable, even somewhat annoyed.
After all, she was a proud empress.
In the past, people looked at her with admiration, not like Aini, who seemed to want to devour her whole.
She has a strong personality, so how could she tolerate someone staring at her so rudely?
However, this time, Boa Hancock did not choose to retaliate directly as usual, but instead showed a rare playful side of herself.
A slight smile played on her lips, a half-smile, before she winked at Annie. That wink carried not only a touch of playfulness but also an indescribable charm. For a moment, time seemed to stand still; everyone around was captivated by her allure, even the usually serious Tashigi.
Immediately afterward, Boa Hancock gently raised a finger and touched her cherry-red lips, and a tiny, pink heart-shaped substance appeared at her fingertip. This seemingly insignificant heart-shaped substance was actually her signature move—the "Kiss Gun"!
Boa Hancock used the pink heart-shaped object as a bullet, her finger the muzzle, and aimed steadily at Aini. Her movements were elegant and skillful, as if this were not a battle, but a magnificent performance.
Finally, with a soft "bang," the pink, heart-shaped object shot out like lightning, flying straight towards Aini. This move, seemingly simple, was actually incredibly powerful.
In the original work, even Luffy, who has the power of the Nika Fruit, would feel unbearable pain if hit and would be unable to deflect the attack.
So don't underestimate this "Kiss Gun" move. It's one of Boa Hancock's signature moves, and its power is not to be underestimated!
There was a reason why she chose this approach.
Because she knew that Aini was very powerful, she was afraid that if she directly attacked, she would not be able to hit the target.
However, this move is unusual—it perfectly combines her charm and Devil Fruit ability—and is a fatal temptation for a lecher like Enni!
But Aini suddenly vanished from the spot like a ghost.
In the blink of an eye, Boa Hancock's Kiss Gun shot out like lightning, heading straight for the spot where Annie had been standing. However, due to Annie's sudden disappearance, the shot struck Smoker's left arm squarely!
From Boa Hancock's perspective, he was right behind Ani!
Under the terrifying power of Boa Hancock, Smoker's left arm was instantly petrified, becoming incredibly hard. He stared at his left arm in astonishment, momentarily at a loss for what to do.
"This……"
Smoker's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
He never imagined that he would be caught in the crossfire so inexplicably under these circumstances. It truly is a case of "getting shot even when lying down"!
Smoker looked down at his petrified left arm, a deep sense of dread washing over him as he felt a surge of fear towards Boa Hancock. At the same time, the sudden attack had instantly cleared his head.
"not good!"
Boa Hancock's expression changed instantly, and a strong sense of unease welled up inside her.
Meanwhile, Hawkeye Jorah Mihawk, standing to the side, kept a close eye on Aini, who was moving rapidly towards him, with a slight smile on his lips.
