Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Wedding 2

Ivankov: Hehe, Straw Hat Boy, you're really in a good mood. You still have the mood to hug a beauty in this situation?

Boa Hancock blushed deeply, burying her head in Luffy's arms, too embarrassed to look at anyone.

Chopper: Let me see your injuries! Wow! Several bones are broken! The injuries are serious! Doctor, doctor… quick, help them… huh? "I'm the doctor, hehe..."

Luffy: "I-Iva...please, give me a shot of 'Energy Hormone,' I need to get revenge."

Iva: "Hey...hey...you're at it again. You did the same thing during the last Summit War. 'Energy Hormone' only temporarily relieves your pain, it's only effective for a short time. Once the effects wear off, the new and old injuries will combine, making the situation worse. How long did it take you to recover last time?"

"Haven't you learned your lesson?"

Luffy: "I don't care, my enemies are right in front of me, they're exhausted and wounded too. If I can't defeat them now, it'll be even harder in the future. Please!"

Iva: "Sigh...you brat, you never consider the consequences of your actions. Are you ready?" 

"Here I come!"

Iva's five fingers transformed into five syringes, piercing Luffy's body. The "energizing hormone" took effect rapidly, and Luffy felt his pain completely disappear. He stood up and said to Boa Hancock, "Hancock, wait here for a moment, I'll be right back; thank you, little Iva!"

Boa Hancock, her face full of worry, watched Luffy's retreating figure, silently praying for his victory...

Luffy quickly entered Gear 4 and joined the battle. The eight fought fiercely, evenly matched. With a deafening roar, both sides separated, each unleashing their strongest attacks.

Dragon roared: "You Marine scum! Behold the Monkey family's all-out attack! 'Flame Dragon Emperor Cannon'!"

Akainu, Blackbeard, and the others dared not be careless, each unleashing their full power. A mixed energy blast filled with magma, beams of light, rocks, and black hole vortexes appeared before them. Akainu roared: "Damn pirates, take this!"

"Netherworld Annihilation Cannon"

The Flame Dragon Emperor Cannon and the Netherworld Annihilation Cannon simultaneously fired from in front of both sides, colliding in mid-air. The resulting shockwave shook the universe, sending everyone still fighting nearby flying. In the clash of energies, the combined ultimate attack of the Monkey family overwhelmed Akainu's side. The massive energy blast struck Blackbeard and Fujitora, instantly obliterating them. Seeing the situation turn against them, Kizaru quickly pulled Akainu, transforming into "light" and instantly escaping ten miles away. The powerful Flame Dragon Emperor Cannon blasted a large hole behind them; had Kizaru been even a second slower, he would have suffered the same fate as Blackbeard and Fujitora.

Akainu, coughing up blood, shouted: "Let me go! Let me go... These damned pirates, I'll kill them all!"

Kizaru: Forget it, the tide has turned. Let's retreat and find another chance to get revenge later.

Akainu, tears streaming down his face: Damn it... How can justice lose? I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled...

Overcome by emotional distress, Akainu coughed up blood and fainted. Kizaru carried him away, glancing back at Luffy and the others, thinking: This Straw Hat kid is truly extraordinary. Everyone who comes into contact with him eventually becomes his ally. This ability is more terrifying than any Devil Fruit. Perhaps one day he really will become the Pirate King. If only I had killed him the first time we met, this wouldn't have happened. Straw Hat kid, don't forget... "We will definitely avenge this!"

The remaining Marines on the battlefield, seeing their commander flee, lost their will to fight and retreated in the direction of Akainu and Kizaru. They initially wanted to continue the pursuit, but then Dragon waved his hand and shouted, "Don't pursue a desperate enemy!" Only then did they stop.

The Second Summit War was declared a victory for the Straw Hat Pirates. Everyone danced with joy, embracing and weeping. When Luffy planted the "Straw Hat Pirate Flag" on the ruins of the Marine Headquarters, cheers resounded through the sky. Everyone was overjoyed.

At this moment, Luffy shouted: "My friends, thank you! You've worked so hard! This battle... we... won!"

Everyone cheered and raised their arms.

Then Luffy continued, "I have another piece of good news to announce: I've decided to marry the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock! The wedding is in two months, and the location will be 'Woman Island.' I hope all the brothers here, and those who couldn't make it this time, will attend our wedding!"

Boa Hancock's heart fluttered, her face flushed, and her shy demeanor was even more beautiful. Usopp, Franky, Nami, Robin, Chopper, and Zoro all stepped forward to offer their blessings. Sanji and Brook, though envious, were also happy for Luffy.

Sanji: "Damn it! Luffy has such incredible luck with women that he can marry the world's most beautiful woman. Me, this handsome guy, still single! What the hell…?"

Brook: "Hehehe… Don't say that. Didn't Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, want to marry her daughter to you?" "It's your own fault for not wanting it! Besides, the wedding location is 'Women's Island,' you know. There'll definitely be lots of panties there, hehehe... Ugh, just thinking about it makes my nose bleed!"

Sanji: "Hey, yeah! Women's Island has so many women, we'll definitely have a blast, hahaha... Captain is brilliant, choosing this place for the wedding is fantastic!"

Brook and Sanji were overjoyed. Luffy's father—Revolutionary Army leader Dragon—walked up to Luffy and Boa Hancock, taking out a diamond ring and two wedding rings from his pocket. He said, "Son, because I was always busy with the revolution, I didn't get to take care of you much growing up. Seeing you so independent now, and now marrying a beautiful woman, fills me with joy. This diamond ring is the one I used when I proposed to your mother, and it's the wedding ring we wore after our marriage. After your mother passed away, I've always carried it with me, taking it out to remember her whenever I have time. Now I'm giving it to you as a blessing from your mother in heaven."

Luffy took the ring, knelt on the ground, and said, "My beloved Hancock, will you marry me?"

Boa Hancock was so shy she couldn't lift her head. Her bashful appearance captivated many men present, even the usually composed Dragon and Zoro felt their hearts flutter. Boa Hancock whispered, "Oh dear, what am I supposed to do with so many people here..."

Despite her words, Boa Hancock still extended her hand, and Luffy happily put the hair on for her. Amidst applause and cheers, they shared a passionate kiss. Seeing that the Monkey Family would soon continue, Kaku and Dragon's eyes welled with tears. Amidst laughter and tears, everyone left Marine Headquarters, returning to prepare for the wedding two months later...

--------------------

News of Luffy and Boa Hancock's marriage spread rapidly throughout the Grand Line. Two months later, the island of Amazon Lily was bustling with activity. Everyone who had been friendly with the Straw Hat Pirates and the Kuja Pirates was present, transforming the once quiet and mysterious island into a vibrant hub of activity. The island's women were busy receiving guests from all over the world, their joy palpable. The arena on Amazon Lily was transformed into a wedding ceremony venue, adorned with exotic flowers and unique decorations, creating a noble and elegant atmosphere.

The wedding day arrived in the blink of an eye. Garp and Dragon, representing the groom's elders, stood on the stage in white tuxedos. The bride was represented by Granny Osa (nicknamed Granny Osa), who had raised the three Boa Hancock sisters. The officiant was Luffy's mentor, Rayleigh. To the accompaniment of melodious music, the groomsmen—Sabo, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Franky, and Brook—slowly entered. Armed with their bridesmaids Nami, Robin, Princess Vivi, and Boa Hancock's sisters Sandersonia and Marigold; then Chopper carried a red velvet tray bearing the couple's wedding rings; finally, amidst applause, Luffy, dressed in a white tuxedo, slowly walked onto the stage.

After everyone had taken their places, to the strains of the wedding march, the world's most beautiful woman—Boa Hancock—embroidered the Kuja Pirates' flag and adorned with diamonds and gems of various colors, shimmering under the lights, making her appear to glow with a dazzling rainbow of colors. Combined with Boa Hancock's flawless, radiant face, she was simply a goddess descended to earth. Everyone present, regardless of age or gender, gasped and cheered, completely captivated by the Pirate Empress's beauty.

Amidst the gasps and cheers, Dragon exclaimed: "Dad, our family..." Luffy must have had incredible luck to marry such a perfect woman; she's unrealistically beautiful, a goddess!

Garp: Heh...yes, even this old man is smitten. Luffy is so lucky! Our Monkey family is truly proud to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law; our future generations will definitely be handsome men and beautiful women—it's wonderful!

As they chatted, Boa Hancock walked down the aisle and reached Luffy's side. The officiant, Rayleigh, cleared his throat and began reciting the vows (not important, skip this part). After exchanging rings and sharing a kiss, thousands of doves and balloons took flight, petals rained down, and colorful fireworks exploded in the sky. The atmosphere at the ceremony reached its peak. Amidst everyone's blessings, the bride, groom, best man, and bridesmaids waved goodbye as they left the venue…

The ceremony ended, and a grand open-air banquet began. Luffy and Hancock… Brook happily played and frolicked with everyone. A concert stage had been set up in the open-air plaza. Living up to her title of "King of Souls," Brook led her well-trained dance troupe in performing one high-energy song after another. The Soul-Soul Fruit was also working its magic, making each song captivating and electrifying the crowd. Many people toasted Hancock, and she downed her drinks in no time, showcasing her amazing drinking capacity and true Pirate Empress nature. After a while of revelry,

Luffy walked up to Hancock and whispered, "My darling wife, I think it's about time for our wedding night."

The slightly tipsy Hancock, as beautiful as a peach blossom, shyly nodded. Her girlish bashfulness delighted Luffy, and he immediately said to everyone, "Guys, let's go rest for a bit. You guys keep playing. See you later!"

After saying that, he wrapped his left arm around her slender waist, stretched out his right hand, grabbed the highest house on the summit of Women's Island (Hancock's house), and flew off…
