Talent Appraisal In One Piece

I have been on this ship for three days now.

And boy oh boy, am I surprised to find out I knew someone on this ship.

It's a Boa-fucking-Hancock and her sisters.

But if Boa Hancock is here, I would have hope of survival because one day Fisher Tiger would undoubtedly free the slaves. The question is, when? I read the One Piece manga and know most of the story, but I don't know the details.

"Brother Vincent, can you continue the story about Princess Belle?" A little girl my age asked me about the story I told her the night before, "Beauty And The Beast." Of course, it is Boa Hancock and her sisters that I mentioned earlier. I mean, if you can get close to Boa Hancock's now, why not? Maybe something will come of it in the future, right?

"of course, hime." Little Hancock is snuggling on my right while Sandersonia is on my left, and Marigold is on Sandersonia's left, you know, the youngest one, always the shyest one.

I found Boa's sister yesterday when Imran introduced me to the people in the cell.

--

It's morning now, or at least I think it is, because there are no windows, and it sucks here. Yesterday, after the guards took away the pots, the same guards came again, but they brought some people with them this time. They took away five women, and only after 3 hours did the women come back battered and bruised. One of them even had a wound, as some of her nails had just been forcefully ripped out.

I can't imagine what they did to them within 3 hours they left because I could hear the sound of agonizing screaming in the distance.

And just now, some guards came into the cell to beat up some people, why? Because they fucking could, and none of the slaves tried to fight back, the guards held our lives in their hands, so we just clenched our teeth and watched like there was nothing. We slaves could do nothing.

And there is Imran. Imran is like the head of this cell.

No one ever argues with him.

Fortunately, he seems to be good with children, even when I was scared by the screams of the woman who was taken yesterday, he still tried to calm me down, even though he is stern with adults.

"Come on, boy, let me introduce you to the people around here."

"I don't want to. I don't know them, why should I introduce myself? Not like they can help me get out of this hell."

But it is true, though. I have heard from whispers around that the bounty on Garret's head is worth about 100 million berries, and he cannot do anything after they put a collar on his neck, our neck.

It may not seem like much, but remember that Luffy had the same bounty after defeating Crocodile.

Although, the contribution is not entirely to Luffy because Marineford doesn't want pirates to be praised as heroes in any form.

But still, you have to be strong enough to get a bounty above 100 million in this sea.

"Indeed, they can't help you escape, but they might be able to help you in other ways. Besides, in our situation, it's good to have more allies, right?."

"Yeah, sure."

"Good, follow me."

Imran walked up to a mature-looking brunette with kind-looking dark green eyes.

"Meet Laila, the former head chef of a noble family."

"a fallen noble family, to be exact, Sir Imran."

*Laila Barbra-48 Female*

* Bowmanship: 0/113

Observation Haki: 0/88

Cooking: 80/82

Drawing: 15/31

Navigation: 5/29*

Oh? This woman has the talent to be a great archer. It's a shame. She seems to have never held a bow before.

"Hello, I'm Laila, a cook."

"Hi, I'm Vincent"

"Alright, next one is Garret."

Garret, who was nearby, was Still as terrifying as ever. He looked at me as we approached, and he looked disgusted.

"Let's see who we have here: a whiny kid with a snotty nose from nowhere who has the luck of Satan himself. Don't think your savior is a demon, right? But this is the Grandline, where demons and devils gather and fight. That's why they call this place the pirates' graveyard, because only the strongest can survive, and a crybaby like you won't survive long. I'm sure you're a rich man's son whom his papa threw out because you're too much of a crybaby…."

"Is he always this chatty?"

"It's the first time I heard him talk so much."

My view on Garret is changing.

Huh?

Is that?

"What are you lookin' at?"

At the end of the cell, I saw three small children gathered, one standing and two sitting. The one standing seemed to be calming the other two.

Not only that, the three children have black, green, and orange hair, and they remind me of someone.

"Who are they?"

"Are you interested?"

"No, I am just curious."

"Haha If I were your age, I'd probably find them attractive too, especially the older sister 'Boa Hancock'."

So, I'm not mistaken. It's Boa Hancock and her two sisters.

"let me introduce you to them, c'mon."

As we approach Boa Hancock and her sister, I get increasingly nervous. I mean, she is Boa Hancock, one dubbed the most beautiful woman in the world.

But maybe because she is still a kid, she doesn't look so much right now. But in the future, she will be the dream of many people, men or women.

And if I can be friends with her now, there might be a chance for me in the future. Right?

"Hancock, Marigold, Sandersonia."

"Granpa Imran!"

"I want to introduce the new boy."

"Hello, name's Vincent, just Vincent."

"I'm Boa Hancock. The one with green hair is Boa Sandersonia, and the one with orange hair is Boa Marigold."

"Hello"

"Hi"

Boa Hancock and her two sisters look tired and lethargic, and they also look a bit dirty, maybe because they have been on this ship longer than me, but they looked messed up.

Even so, I can still see the fire burning in Boa Hancock's eyes, unlike her two sisters, who look frightened and uneasy.

"So you three are sisters. Are you their older sister?"

"Yes, I am. How do you know?"

"You seem quite calm compared to your two sisters."

"You also look very calm right now."

"Yeah, I'm pretty calm now. I mean, I can be calm because ….."

.... wait .... why am I calm?

Is it because I'm not scared? Why am I not scared? I know the Celestial Dragon is full of madmen, so I should be terrified.

"Is it because there is Grandpa Imran?"

"Ah, yeah, you can say that."

"Right? With Grandpa Imran here, no one will bother us."

"Haha, im not that great, you know."

Now that I look at it again, I realize Boa Hancock is pretty impressive. I mean, look at her talents.

*Boa Hancock-12 Female*

* Supreme King Haki: 10/179

Observation Haki: 21/165

Armament Haki: 9/152

Hand-to-hand combat: 39/150

Marksman: 11/147*

Looking at her talent, I see that she is incredible; all her talent is over one hundred. Usually, people only have one talent that is over a hundred points, and even that's still a minority of people. Her two sisters are also not to be underestimated.

*Boa Sandersonia-12 Female*

*Observation Haki: 31/168

Hand-to-hand combat: 39/128

Armament Haki: 9/110

Navigation: 5/79

Whip Mastery: 0/67*

As expected, Sandersonia's talent lies mostly in her observation haki.

*Boa Marigold-12 Female*

*Armament Haki: 27/170

Polearm: 39/165

Observation Haki: 12/105

Hand-to-hand combat: 5/65

Cooking: 0/53*

And Marigold's talent lies mostly in her Armament haki.

"hey, Vincent, where do you come from?"

Boa Hancock approached with her curious puppy eyes.

Who are you? What is this Boa Hancock? Where is the arrogant and narcissistic boa Hancock? Why is she so cute?

"Ehem, im not quite sure cause my memory is a bit fuzzy, but I still remember some story from my homeland. Wanna hear?"
