In Shanks' words, the only person on the entire Island of Despair with this talent was Luca.

Luca was the most helpful to Shanks.

However, she had more important things to attend to, so she could not stay by Shanks' side to help.

Luca had already recovered and was standing upright. Abel reminded her, "You, stop playing tricks behind my back. This time, you'll help Mr. Shanks find the herbs he needs.

"Also, don't you like being with Luke? I'll make it happen for you. Don't say I'm not doing right by you."

A hint of malice tugged at the corner of his mouth.

He always had a feeling that Luca was slipping out of his control. If this continued, he would not be able to keep her in his control.

He had to do something.

Luca had a bad feeling, but she did not have the courage to ask him what he wanted to do at the moment.

If Abel could not resist throwing another punch at her, she would be the one to suffer. Luke would be distressed if he knew about it.

Now, they both needed to stay calm and collected. They could not let certain things cloud their judgment.

Luca warned herself not to be too curious about Abel's affairs.

Luke's men would know what he wanted to do.

Luca nodded and replied, "Yes, I'll find a way to get those herbs."

"Go on, then. Be a good little canary. But remember, while you're trapped in Luke's cage, don't forget where your real cage is." Abel looked at Luca with disgust.

If it were not for the inappropriate occasion today, he would surely have punched her again without hesitation.
