"Asshole...why does it hurt so much..."
Ace stood up with the iron pipe and looked at Luffy angrily.
This guy is obviously smaller than me, but he has so much strength...
"If you two fight again, grandpa's iron fist of love will hit you on the head!"
Garp pressed his nose and clenched his fist loudly.
"Ace, don't go to town to steal things every day. Luffy is your brother, he's better than you."
"He's not my brother. Don't worry about my affairs!" Ace said stubbornly.
"You're saying that again!" Garp was angry.
"You are the only one who still wants to be a pirate...hmph, you are still a low-level pirate anyway."
Uta was a little interested in Ace becoming a pirate, but she was very disdainful of Ace's sneak attacks.
"What are you talking about? I am the man who wants to be the Pirate King!"
Ace roared at Uta. He had an impression of Uta. The previous introduction said that she was the daughter of a pirate.
"Haha, you're still ten thousand years too early to be the Pirate King or anything like that!" Uta roared.
Garp couldn't help but punch Ace, "You said you want to be a pirate, you want to be a sailor!"
"hateful……"
Ace was punched by Garp and could no longer speak. He just held his head and endured the pain.
"That's it, the three of you must get along well with each other, Dadan, and remember to help me teach them to be sailors."
Seeing that the conflict was suppressed, Garp walked back in a swaggering direction.
"Huh... Grandpa, this guy..."
Luffy recovered from the impact of the fist, adjusted his clothes, and looked at the bandits.
The bandit respectfully sent Garp off and then changed his expression.
"Now, I make the decision here, you'd better be honest with me!"
Dadan crossed his arms and looked down at the three little ones.
"I don't think so." Luffy put his hands in his pockets and looked at the bandits in front of him.
Dadan's group of bandits, as the subordinates recruited by Garp, are naturally good in character. To say that they are bandits, it should be said that they are at the level of armed mountain people.
Luffy also saw a vegetable patch.
"The king is free. Now, I am the one who calls the shots."
He said to the bandits and looked around the environment of the residential area.
The king is truly free and is the maker of the law. All people will abide by the king's laws until they have insufficient strength to resist.
This little devil! Dadan looked at Luffy angrily.
"I can't pretend I didn't hear what you just said...What kind of king do you want to be?"
Luffy looked at Ace.
Nami is still safe, so let's take care of Ace's trouble for grandpa.
I don't know if it's possible. A brat like this has a strong head and won't show mercy even if he's beaten to death.
All in all, let’s work hard first.
If it doesn't work, forget it. Ace's death is a matter of the future anyway, and he can leave it to the future Luffy to solve it.
"Pirate King, do you have any opinions?"
Ace nervously held the iron pipe, this weapon could not bring him a sense of security.
Luffy's speed was too fast, even if he was prepared, it would be difficult to resist.
"I have an opinion. There are too many kings. Who should we listen to?"
Wow——
Luffy opened his palms and the flames burned brightly.
"My grandfather arrested the Pirate King and ended Roger's life, and I want to end the era started by Gol D. Roger."
"So, stop saying that until you can defeat me."
Luffy put away his flames.
"Who do you think you are! You have such crazy ideas..."
Ace swallowed, how could a person emit flames? This is amazing.
And... so cool...
Strong reluctance and admiration arose in my heart. This guy actually wanted to destroy the era created by his father!
An irresistible feeling of joy arose in his heart...
Why not destroy the era that One Piece established?
A feeling of sudden enlightenment arose in my heart, and I felt a sense of relief.
It seems that I have found a new goal in life.
Ace had no interest in being a pirate, but simply hated the man named Roger and gave him his sinful blood.
The era of great pirates was created, and Roger received endless infamy. Under the influence of these infamy, Ace also realized that he might not deserve to be alive.
Especially since his birth killed his mother and countless other mothers.
Gol D. Ace has endless original sin just by being born in this world.
Under such pressure and hatred, people will tend to fail or reopen.
Ace chose to show off. Everyone said I was wrong, so just be a pirate that everyone hates and inherit his father's legacy.
Then I will become the Pirate King and surpass my father.
That's what he thought.
I have decided to become the Pirate King and announce to the world that the great secret treasure, "ONE PIECE" is fake and does not exist at all!
I'm going to destroy everything about Roger!
Ace made this decision in his heart and heard the boy in front of him say:
"I am Monkey D. Luffy. My grandfather is a naval hero. I was born to be a king. Do you have any opinions?"
Luffy smiled and played two cards from his hand.
In this context, no one would think that Luffy in the future would not be able to do such a thing.
"Damn it... whatever you want, I want to be the Pirate King anyway!"
Ace admitted that with the power of the background, Luffy looked invincible.
Compared to the father of the Pirate King, the naval hero grandfather, this aura is too dazzling and righteous.
So envious...
Luffy looked at the house where the bandits lived, pushed open the house, and immediately saw the fruit with complex purple patterns thrown on the window.
Devil Fruit.
Why are you here?
"Haha, that's what Shanks snatched!" Uta also discovered the fruit.
"Why are you here?"
"Is that something? The red-haired man gave it to Ace. He said it was a relic given to him by Ace's father."
Dadan said.
They didn't know what a Devil Fruit was, and some felt sorry for Ace, that father, who only left one fruit for Ace.
That's outrageous.
"Huh? This is actually for that guy?"
Utado glanced at Ace, "This guy...is the son of Roger, the Pirate King?"
Her eyes lingered on Ace and Luffy, "I don't feel as good as Luffy..."
"You guys, what are you comparing?" Ace was very angry.
"Whoever loves this fruit wants it. I don't want what that man gave me!"
Luffy took off this devil fruit. It was so fateful that he actually saw it twice.
"Since you said so, I'll take it for collection without any hesitation."
Luffy touched the devil fruit on his hand.
Ace snorted and said nothing.
"Luffy want to eat?" Uta asked.
"If you don't eat it, keep it as a collection. If I become a landlubber, I won't be able to protect Uta properly."
Uta chuckled, "Luffy, you can't even swim now, so what's the difference?"
"You can learn this kind of thing slowly."
Luffy found a box to put the Devil Fruit in, and then threw the crumpled Totemugika note page into it.
After Uta walked around the house, he walked out and walked around the edge of the forest curiously.
"Ace, judging by your tone, you hate Roger, so why do you want to be the Pirate King?"
Luffy asked him, holding the box.
"I want to destroy the era of great pirates created by Roger!"
When he said this, he felt a bit like what Luffy said, and added: "In my way."
"That sounds interesting. Why don't you come with me? If you become a pirate, you will cause trouble for my grandpa." Luffy said.
"I don't want it. Besides, Garp and I are not related by blood, so what trouble can there be?"
"But my grandfather raised you..." Luffy glanced at the bandits who were doing their own things.
It should be said that the bandits raised her.
"I didn't beg him to do this. Once I go to sea, he will have nothing to do with me." Ace turned away.
"You can't say that. Humans are creatures with emotions, which are much heavier than blood ties."
"...What do you know? You don't understand anything!"
Ace glanced at Luffy, said nothing, and ran deep into the forest.
Luffy started his own daily training.
In the evening, he sent Uta down the mountain.
"Luffy still remembers the road?" Uta asked.
"This place is quite close to Windmill Village. I took a note of the route by the way."
Although Garp asked him to stay in the bandit's den, Luffy didn't intend to do that. The bandit's room didn't have a separate room or bed, so what was he doing sleeping there?
In terms of education, Garp can indeed be described as wise. It would be better to leave Ace to be raised by Miss Maginot than to be raised by bandits.
These bandits are indeed kind-hearted, but they can't teach Ace anything. They can only maintain food and shelter. Apart from kindness, they have no merits worth mentioning.
After he sent Uta back to Miss Maginot's house, he put the box containing the Devil Fruit under the pillow in his room and slept.
Garp returned to the naval base, and Luffy's life became peaceful again, spending all day exercising in Windmill Village.
This kind of life only lasted for a month before he was discovered by Garp who was on vacation again.
"Luffy, why are you here again?" Garp ran to Windmill Village after discovering that Luffy was not on Mount Korpo.
Then I saw a man and a woman who were inseparable in Windmill Village.
Luffy was still exercising with his eyes closed, while Uta was holding a book and reading.
Seeing Garp appear, Uta quickly kicked Luffy out of the dream.
Garp punched Luffy on the head.
Luffy used his Haki to block it, and then his Haki was shattered.
"Hahaha, Luffy, what can such a weak Haki do?" Garp looked proudly at his grandson who was knocked to the ground.
"Domineering can always make you stronger..."
"Besides, I don't get along with those guys. Grandpa, you left One Piece's child to be raised by bandits. You don't have a serious illness, right? Windmill Village is obviously pretty good."
He said, "The bandits can't teach Ace anything, not even basic etiquette."
"Do you know his identity?"
"You haven't hidden it, have you?" Luffy was speechless, "If you really want to protect him, then don't tell him about his life experience, and then leave it to the people in the village to raise him."
The DNA identification technology in the pirate world is underdeveloped.
Garp looked complicated, "Grandpa would never lie to a child. Since Ace asked, I will tell him his life story truthfully."
"He has the right to know who his parents are."
Luffy groaned, "Then you are really great."
"You're still talking about me, Luffy, aren't you very sensible? Then teach me Ace!"
Garp grabbed Luffy by the back of his neck, lifted him up, and walked on the road to Mount Kolpo again.
Uta followed behind the two.
"I will always live in Windmill Village during this period!" Garp said sternly.
"Are you that free?" Luffy was speechless.
"I'm not idle. It's just that the Celestial Dragons had a sudden idea to go down to the world to visit the most beautiful kingdom in the world. I just wanted to prevent accidents from coming here."
The Celestial Dragons... tsk.
Garp left Luffy at the bandit gathering place and walked back.
"Who are the Celestial Dragons?" Uta asked Luffy.
"That's a very troublesome group of rulers."
Watching Garp walk away, Luffy turned to look at the bandits he hadn't seen in a month.
"Yo - bandits, Sasi ignored Dana, where is Ace now?"
"I'm going to start seriously correcting his path!"
Luffy took a deep breath and said to the bandits.
The bandits looked at Luffy's appearance, which was not easy to mess with - he had a gun and a sword at his waist, he was shirtless, and he was wearing shorts.
Because he was caught by Garp during training, and he took off his shirt during training to prevent himself from getting sweaty.
"At this time, Ace should be at the Uncertainty Terminal or Duan Town."
said the bandits.
"Can someone show us the way?"
A bandit was pushed out and reluctantly led the way for the two of them.
The road to Mount Kolpo is not stressful for Luffy, but it is very difficult for Uta.
She wore a straw hat on her head, only an elegant long skirt, and cool little shoes on her feet. Uta didn't want to let her skirt get dirty, so she had to hold it up in many places and move in small steps.
The grove was lush and green, with leaves shaking, and a strong blue-haired man with no eyebrows emerged.
There is a strange tattoo on his left arm, which is very eye-catching on the pale skin.
People and horses on both sides collided.
"Berjimi?" The bandit was the first to recognize him.
"Bandit... you should know the kid named Ace, right?"
When Berjemie saw the bandit and Luffy beside him, he let out a kukuku laugh.
"What are you looking for him for?" the bandit asked subconsciously.
"That guy stole the treasure of our Sapphire Pirates!" Berjemi clenched his fists.
"Tell me about that guy..."
Bang!
As the gunfire rang out, the forest birds chirped and flew away.
Jamie looked at his chest in disbelief. There was a hole as thick as his thumb.
"you……"
He groaned and fell to the ground.
"Luffy, you actually shot!" The bandit looked sideways following the sound of the gunshot.
Then he saw Luffy stuff the gun back into his waist.
"Well, isn't he a pirate? I thought it would be more troublesome to fight him later, so I shot him first."
"Any questions?"
"No... I just feel... it's a bit outrageous that the Skinned Man died so easily... That's not right, aren't we the enemy of the Sapphire Pirates!"
The bandit panicked.
"It doesn't matter, my grandpa is here."
Luffy said.
"That's right. After all, Garp is here..."
At the mention of Garp's name, a strong sense of security filled the bandit's mind.
"Besides, Ace stole the pirates' treasure, doesn't he already become his enemy?" Uta added.
