44 A bug

"Husband, I think I know who this ship belongs to." Hancock spoke in a low voice after Jiutian and Izan had hugged.

"Who's ship is it...?" Jiutian asked in a deep voice as her eyes narrowed and her eyebrows furrowed. She had already thought of that the owner of this ship had to die and in the cruelest way too.

"Gecko Moriah, he is one of the Seven Royal Warriors of the Sea, as I was previously." Hancock remembered Gecko Moriah's ugly ability he got from his Devil Fruit. "Gecko Moriah can control Shadows. For example he can steal people's shadow and place them inside a corpse." Hancock explained the little she knew of Gecko Moriah's Power Fruit ability. She didn't know its weakness, but that didn't matter in front of absolute power.

Izan squinted his eyes for a moment before he glanced around before he stared at Jiutian. "Are there any way we can ignore his ability? It would be a real pain of he used our strength against us."

Jiutian glanced at Nojiko, and Robin, but she squinted her eyes as she peeked a glance at Hancock.

"I, you, Nojiko and Robin are immune towards most abilities. No one can poison us, seal us, curse us, steal our shadows nor our souls, or to make it clear, they can't do anything beside real injuries through Physical strength or raw power through either a Devil Fruit as for example that Admiral which could create ice." Jiutian explained with a smile on her face which made it slightly more mysterious.

Izan frowned and his eyebrows furrowed as he did get the underlining of what Jiutian explained. "Explain to me why. And why isn't Hancock immune like us four?"

Hancock hugged Izan, she didn't care if she got hurt if it was for Izan. But, she was overjoyed that Izan cared that much for her.

Jiutian sighed and started explaining. "My body is made of my own strength which is far greater strength than what this world can handle." Jiutian shook her head before continuing. "You on the other hand is immortal in every sense possible. Your soul is one of the strongest out there which can be made, it is even hundreds of times stronger than my soul. Your soul created the perfect body which doesn't age, no sickness can affect you, your body or soul can't be poisoned or cursed. The only thing that can harm your body is through power and strength." Jiutian's smile turned brighter ad she felt genuinely happy that Izan's soul and body were perfect in all senses.

Jiutian then glanced between Nojiko and Robin as she saw their curious gazes. "Both Nojiko and Robin were normal humans previously. But their bodies and souls changed dramatically after having intercourse with you, Izan. Their souls have gotten very strong to the point of that it could near the power of my own soul. They will not age any longer and only absolute power can hurt their bodies. The reason Hancock is vulnerable is because she hasn't had intercourse with you yet." Jiutian frowned slightly as she had remembered something. "And that is only if the woman you have intercourse with is a virgin."

Nojiko and Robin both blushed slightly, but Robin managed to put a smile on her face as she stared at Izan without blinking. She couldn't help but to think that she already owed too much to Izan, it didn't take long before Robin shook her head slightly as she stared at Izan with a feverish gaze. Robin thought that she already belonged to Izan and that she shouldn't worry about any of these thoughts again.

"Husband!" Hancock's face was red, yet she felt happy that she was a virgin and could offer it to Izan with the rest of her body and life. Hancock couldn't think anymore as the only thing in her mind was Izan.

Izan couldn't help but to wonder why Hancock acted like this and not "normal" like Robin, Jiutian and Nojiko. But, Izan couldn't help but to like how devoted Hancock is to him, it makes him wanting her to smile and embrace Hancock till she was calm.

"Hancock, you don't have to worry, I will protect you. I won't let a lousy Devil Fruit User like Gecko Moriah harm you. Just be patient for now, alright?" Izan stroked Hancock's hair as he spoke gently.

Hancock nodded while staring in Izan's embrace, Hancock didn't wish to ever leave this warm and caring person, which she had never felt before in her life.

Hancock had never thought anyone could be kind, warm and loving as Izan. She had suffered as being a slave of the Celestial Dragons when she was young. They only saw her as an object and nothing more. And when she managed to escape with her sisters, she was seem as an Empress of Beauty which every man lusted after.

That was the reason Hancock felt that she could entrust herself in Izan's hands. As Hancock had truly felt how caring he is towards her. When Hancock thought of this, she couldn't help but to snuggle inside of Izan's embrace as she sniffed Izan's body.

The five of them continued walking, more zombies popped up from their graves. Yet none of them survived longer than a second before they evaporated into nothingness after Jiutian's swift katana slash. It took Jiutian only a flicker of her hands as everything got killed.

"This is just wasting time." Nojiko whispered as she felt that facing these zombies were no difficult to their group as they blatantly marched into enemy territory.

"Scheeeee!" A weird hissing scream sounded out which made them all stop before stared towards where they had heard the sound coming from.

"A bug..." Jiutian said with a hint of disgust in her voice as she saw a gigantic spider on a wall. It was huge, had massive legs and body. Jiutian glanced at it before she shook her head in shame as it was way too weak.

"Nojiko, can you deal with that one?" Izan asked as he knew that Nojiko was afraid of large beasts. He did also know that with Nojiko's strength, it shouldn't be a problem killing the spider. But, it would help her tremendously in being not afraid of facing against large beasts in the future.

Nojiko nodded while her body was shivering. She was disgusted by the sight of the large spider in front of her. Nojiko closed her eyes and sighed before stepping forward, Nojiko raised her right hand, where a golden pole appeared.

The spider seemed to stare at Nojiko as it jumped off the wall and landed on the ground. Its legs punctured the ground as its massive body barely shook by the twenty meter fall.

Nojiko squinted her eyes and began running towards the spider as she spun her pole around her body, making sure that she would be able to handle any and every attack. Nojiko noticed that the spider had good reflexes as it also started sprinting towards her. Nojiko prepared to bash her pole on the spider.

As Nojiko had the thought, the spider wished to use its front leg to pierce Nojiko. Nojiko used both of her hands as she mustered all of her strength in her grip, bashing her pole forward towards the incoming spider leg.

"Scheeey." The spider let out a miserable scream as it saw its own front leg being ripped off its body. The giant spider stared hatefully at Nojiko before it lowered its head, wanting to bite off Nojiko's head.

Nojiko widened her eyes, but her body moved by itself as she tapped the ground with her toes which sent her backwards. Nojiko wasn't kind enough to wait as she lowered her body and pounced forward while spinning her pole. She had a clear goal in mind, which was to break the other front leg of the dazed spider.

The spider wasn't prepared as it saw Nojiko jump backwards when it wanted to bite her head off. But, it couldn't think further as it saw Nojiko rushing forward once again. The spider raised its other front leg, wanting to block the incoming attack.

"Schee!!!" The spider let out another scream as it lost its other front leg. "Bang!" The spider fell down on the ground, not able to lift its body up any longer.

Nojiko's eyes were cold as she raised her pole once again, she struck down towards its head with all her strength. The spider stopped moving, and Nojiko breathed out loudly before a smile appeared on her face and turned towards Izan, waving her hand cheerfully.

Nojiko had still some remaining fear towards beasts in general, but Nojiko felt less pressure as she had managed to face her fears and killed a gigantic spider.
