Chapter 84
Hancock cannot believe what he’s reading right now, she was sitting in his bedroom of her castle when she had gotten the daily mail from the news coo for the day and there was one of those pirate magazines.
Yeah, okay those are normal, like three of them get made every two weeks. But Luffy is on the front cover of this one. Which okay she can get behind, Luffy’s gorgeous, she could get behind it if it was any other magazine cover. but these types of magazine covers are never… you could say… innocent nor family friendly.
And this cover is no exception.
At all.
And Luffy’s not alone in the magazine cover. No, she’s got some company. A pirate named Killer, who is apparently the right-hand man of the Captain of the Kid Pirates, Killer. On the magazine cover Luffy and Killer are dressed in their usual attire. Luffy in Long sleeve red button up with none of the buttons button, with nothing but a red Bikini top underneath it, with ripped jeans short shorts with frayed edges and the strawhat Pirates Jolly Roger embroidered on the pockets, and her iconic straw hat with a red hatband, and sandals. And Killer in a blue t-shirt with his customized Jolly Roger on. a blue slash, jeans, black dress shoes, his outfit is very simple, but it shows off every single last muscle on his body. They were both dressed and in their usual attire except Killer had his captain’s Eustass Kid’s large red fur coat over his bare shoulders, the fur coat cuddling around him and the chair he was sitting on as if it was molten lava. And Luffy was wearing The Surgeon Of Death’s Jacket.
And surprisingly in the magazine Killer’s not wearing his metal helmet? Mask? Thing? That usually hides his entire face and head from view. And he’s pretty to say the least. His blonde shaggy hair frames his face perfectly, he has perfect, thick, long blonde eyelashes, bright crystal blue eyes, a blonde goatee, and plump purple painted lips that look like a perfect plum. But what takes the cake is the position Luffy and Killer are in.
On the magazine cover Killer is sitting in a chair, leaning back as Luffy straddles his lap. Killer’s hands under Luffy’s Long sleeve red button up with none of the buttons button, his hands filling up her back. And Luffy’s hand up under Killer’s shirt, her hands cupping and squeezing his meaty and muscular pecs. Both Luffy and Killer’s mouths are open wide, and their tongues are sticking out as they lick cake off each other‘s tongue, smirking at each other and their eyes locked as they do so, their eyes sparkling with amusement.
The cover line reads, "Strawhat Luffy & The Murder, Machine, The Massacre Soldier, Kamazo the Manslayer, Killer: The Sweet & Savage Alliance!”
Hancock's eyes widened as she took in the erotic image of Luffy with Killer on the magazine cover. Her heart pounded in his chest, a mix of anger and jealousy coursing through her veins.
"What is this nonsense?!" She exclaimed, her hand trembling as she held the magazine up to the light. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. Luffy, the woman she was head over heels in love with, was on a magazine cover that was the epitome of vulgarity, with that monster of a man, Killer!
Hancock's mind raced with questions and accusations. How could Luffy do this? Did she know what kind of magazine this was? Did she agree to this lewd photoshoot? A storm of emotions brewed within her, from the fiery rage to the bitter sting of betrayal. Her eyes narrowed as she studied the image closer, trying to find any clue that this was a misunderstanding, a prank perhaps.
She quickly flipped through the latest issue of "Pirate's Life" magazine, hoping to find an article that could explain this ludicrous situation, but all she found was page after page of unrelated content. The only thing that accompanied the cover was a small caption that read, "The hottest pirate duo to hit the Grand Line!" The only thing about Luffy and Killer was the Cover photo and that was it.
But that was more than enough for Hancock, her mind was racing a mile a minute. Why would Luffy do something like this? Did she have feelings for that beast? That thought made her feel sick to her stomach, and she threw the magazine on the floor with disgust.
Hancock had seen once and only once the way Killer fights. When the kid pirates were finding a bunch of marines and it was broadcasted into the entire world by some faulty Den Den Mushi. The man had slaughtered them like they were mere flies in a barroom. The way he swung those scythes of his without a care in the world, the way the blood spurted and the screams echoed, the was Killer tour through a squadron of marines like paper, leaving a trail of carnage in his wake. The way his blond hair fluttered wildly as he sliced and diced his way through the crowd, occasionally saying fuck it to the swords and literally just crushing marines heads between his massive hands.
And Luffy... she thought she knew her. Luffy was fearless, sure, but she had always had a certain level of... innocence? Naivety? Something that kept her from the darker, more twisted aspects of the pirate world. Or so Hancock had thought. But here she was, on the cover of a magazine that was basically the equivalent of Playboy for pirates, looking like she was having the time of her life, with a man who was basically the poster boy for why Amazon Lily had a no-men policy.
Hancock couldn't shake the feeling of betrayal that coiled in her stomach like a snake ready to strike. She had felt something for Luffy, something more than just friendship. Something she had never felt before. And now, here was Luffy, flaunting herself with another pirate. A man of all things. And not just any man, but one of the most feared and ruthless on the high seas.
