But no one cared about that now! First, they tore down the expensive white bedsheets from the massive bed, ripped them into strips to make a rope, and slid down.
After landing, the three sisters surveyed their surroundings. Sonia said, "Sister, I still somewhat remember the route they took when they brought us here!"
"Is there any way to deal with the guards outside?" Marie asked.
"…I'll find a way to defeat a guard alone, then we can change into their clothes. They'll be a bit big, but maybe we can blend in and get out!"
Marie said worriedly, "Will… will that even work?"
"Whether it works or not, we have to take the chance!"
Hancock clenched her small fists and waved her hand. "Let's go! The Holy Light guides us!"
Sonia: ???
Marie: ???
There it goes again. What in the world is the Holy Light?
As the three girls prepared to execute their escape plan, they didn't notice an image Den Den Mushi poking its two eyes out from a corner of the platinum wall to their left, recording their escape route.

Meanwhile, in another room, Grimm had returned to his original form, sitting on a luxurious ruby-studded chair.
On the seat to his right sat a special image Den Den Mushi with a bubble helmet, exclusively for Celestial Dragons!
The images projected onto the wall from this Den Den Mushi were monitoring feeds from all over Mary Geoise. He could switch and control them.
Currently, Grimm had frozen the image on the Hancock sisters.
After drinking a beer, Grimm took out a mini Den Den Mushi and made a call. A very respectful voice answered, "Saint Epthelm, do you have any orders?"
"Keep the Den Den Mushi open. Follow my command. Send three guards to patrol E-66 individually, and tell them to deliberately lose to the enemy!"
The voice on the other end asked suspiciously, "My Lord, what are you planning?"
"Do you want to die? Asking such questions? Just follow my orders! Why ask so many questions? And if even a single hair on those three little girls is harmed, you can expect to go to hell!"
The person on the other end quickly replied, "I apologize, My Lord. If it's just three people… it won't cause too much of an impact. I'll arrange it immediately!"
After hanging up, Grimm placed the silver Den Den Mushi aside, watching the three escaping girls. He muttered to himself, "The future Pirate Empress… Boa Hancock… is now mine…"

At a corner, Hancock glanced ahead and quickly pulled her sisters back into the shadows. Peeking out again, she saw three bodyguards approaching.
Sonia also poked her head out. Seeing the three bodyguards, she secretly clenched her fist in excitement.
"Good! We're so lucky to encounter three right away. After we defeat them, we'll take their clothes!"
Hancock vaguely felt something was off, but this was indeed a golden opportunity!
First, she pulled herself and her two sisters back into the corner. The moment the suited men passed the corner, all three of them sprang into action!
In less than three seconds, the ambush was successful. The three bodyguards "fainted"!
Hancock went to one of them. "Quick, quick! Change into their clothes, then toss them into the corner!"
"Understood, Sister!" Sonia and Marie also quickly pulled off the suits and put them on.
When the Hancock sisters had changed clothes, Grimm nearly burst out laughing!
These clothes are so big, why even bother changing? Anyone who can't tell is truly blind!
It had to be said, even if Grimm ordered the guards to turn a blind eye, if they still couldn't see the problem with the Hancock sisters' outfits, then they weren't just turning a blind eye—they were genuinely blind!
Sonia and Marie, being more robust and already approaching adult height, managed to wear the suits with less awkwardness.
With their hair tucked into the hats, while still a bit strange, it wasn't immediately obvious at first glance—provided you didn't look at their faces!
Hancock, however, was a bit embarrassed. Her figure was not as tall as her two sisters, though she was still tall for a girl.
But wearing an adult man's suit, the trousers dragged on the ground, and the sleeves completely covered her hands. It was far too conspicuous; anyone could tell the clothes weren't her size!
"Should we cut it?"
Sonia had clearly noticed the issue of the oversized clothes and wanted to cut off the excess fabric from Hancock's suit. But without a weapon, how would they do it?
Hancock could only reluctantly roll up the excess fabric, making do with what they had. "Let's go!" she said.
In their current situation, this was the only option.
The three sisters once again followed the route they remembered from when they were brought in, completely unaware of the hidden surveillance Den Den Mushi in every corner!
These Den Den Mushi were not exposed like those in Impel Down; instead, they were specially designed with hidden openings, only revealing a pair of eyes for monitoring!
Grimm watched the scene, then picked up the Den Den Mushi again to give orders. "All guards, ignore any suspicious disguised individuals you see!"
"…Yes, Saint Epthelm." The person on the other end didn't ask further. He probably assumed it was another one of Grimm's eccentric games.
Although it carried some risk, given Grimm's status as a Celestial Dragon, he had no choice but to obey.
However, to prevent any trouble caused by these three slaves, protection measures for other Celestial Dragon palaces had to be heightened, as the sensitive period caused by Grimm and Kel'Thuzad's attack on Mary Geoise a few days prior had not yet passed!
---
The main hall of Mary Geoise was enormous, as vast as a football field, and exquisitely opulent.
The Hancock sisters had stealthily made their way here, looking at the exit with hopeful eyes. That exit! If they could just get through it, they would regain their freedom!
But as the main entrance to Mary Geoise, how could the guards be lax?
Along the sides of the main hall, a bodyguard stood almost every two meters. The massive hall was guarded by hundreds of people!
"What do we do? We've come this far, there's no turning back now!" Hancock and her two sisters hid behind a massive vase on the second floor, peering down into the main hall on the first floor.
Although Hancock's journey had been suspiciously smooth, her desperate yearning for freedom had made her lose her calm judgment. Her eyes were fixed on the main door!
But the sheer number of guards in the main hall was overwhelming. They couldn't pass through directly. What to do?
Just as the three girls were racking their brains, a suited man suddenly rushed from a side hall on the first floor into the main hall, his face panicked.
"Bad news! Something's happened in the side hall! Everyone, follow me! Quick! Quick! Quick!"
