Are they blood related sisters?

> Or perhaps something happened during their time as a slave?




Those 3 girls are definitely blood related. Boa Hancock explains her tragedy
in [episode 415](http://www.watchonepiece.us/one-piece-episode-415-english-
sub/) in which we can see the 3 girls in their childhood and early teen years
and they definitely look similar. Their different characteristics are probably
because of,

  * just being different:- even in real life siblings have different traits which grow as they mature.
  * different devil fruits:- we know that Boa Hancock ate [Mero Mero No Mi](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Mero_Mero_no_Mi) fruit (Paramecia type), and her sisters ate Hebi Hebi No Mi fruits (Zoan type), [Hebi Hebi No Mi, Model Anaconda](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Hebi_Hebi_no_Mi,_Model%3a_Anaconda) (Boa Sandersonia) and [Hebi Hebi No Mi, Model King Cobra](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Hebi_Hebi_no_Mi,_Model%3a_King_Cobra) (Boa Marigold).
