”Look, it's a Celestial dragon!” exclaimed a slave.

”Hmph, if I was dying anyway I might just take one down with me,” said a slave coldly.

”You will be taken down by the soldiers before he could even notice you,” said a slave disdainful.

Hancock ignored the comments and watched the boy. He had the same outfit and hair cut as the other Celestial dragons.

But to Hancock, he looked vastly different.

Hancock looked curiously at the young boy.

”D-did he just save us?” asked a slave.

”Maybe he just wanted to prank the soldier, you know how crazy the Celestial dragon can be,” said another slave.

”I think he just saved us... wait here,” said the leader of the slave, as he walked out of the building.

”W-why...” said the leader but Sin interrupted him.

”When you escape find any ship with a black star flag, and use this key,” said Sin and handed a golden key to the leader.

”Why are you helping us?” the leader asked in surprise.

”Because it's the right thing to do,” young Sin said simply.

The leader and the other slaves were shocked, they could never imagine hearing those words from a Celestial dragon.

”Huh?...Ah! I'm coming” she said as she looked at the young boy's eyes one more time.
