Chapter 256 Ace brings good news to Luffy
Chapter 256 Ace brings good news to Luffy
A few months later, something big happened to the Chambord Islands.
I heard that the Straw Hat Pirates have reappeared in everyone's sight after disappearing for two years.
When the navy learned of the news, it immediately dispatched and brought "pacifists" with it.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived, they met several impostors, but the real Straw Hats were not found for a long time.
Luffy was walking around the streets carrying a backpack that was countless times bigger than himself. It was full of all kinds of food and clothes that Hancock had prepared for him.
Speaking of which, I always wanted to thank that guy, but it turned out that he had lived on Daughter Island for two years, and people often brought him food.
Now that I have left my country, I have received such a large package of gifts.
When he finds the treasure, he must treat Hancock to a good meal.
Luffy kept in mind the Empress's words not to expose himself, so he kept a low profile after arriving on the island, and even put a white fake beard under his nose.
Afraid of being recognized.
Especially the navy.
Along the way, he not only met people pretending to be himself, but also people pretending to be Zoro and Sanji.
And they foolishly regarded each other as a real "partner".
Luffy patted the ugly "Zoro" and said happily: "Zoro, you really haven't changed at all!"
Fake Zoro was suddenly confused: "Yes...really?"
It seems that he really looks like the bounty hunter Roronoa Zoro?
Well, just as handsome!
When looking for other companions, because the fake Straw Hat Pirates were too high-profile, they were targeted by the navy and were pursued to arrest them.
On the contrary, the real Straw Hat gang, because of its low profile and disguise, is unexpectedly safe.
After knowing that the two people were fake, Luffy still couldn't believe it: "They obviously look exactly the same!"
How could it be fake?
So where did the real Zoro and Sanji go?
Just as Luffy stared wide-eyed and wondered, someone tapped him on the shoulder.
Looking back, he saw a man wearing an orange hat standing behind him. The man also had a beard under his nose: "Ace! Why are you here?"
Even though he was disguised, Luffy still recognized him immediately.
"Shh!"
Ace made a silent gesture to signal him to lower his voice: "There are navy everywhere in the Chambord Islands now, so be careful."
With that said, he took his brother to the deserted forest.
Be safe here.
Luffy was so happy that he immediately jumped on Ace, hugging him tightly like an octopus.
Originally, he was carrying a huge backpack on his back, and Ace was bearing all the weight alone.
But Ace is very strong, even holding his brother and backpack is effortless.
"I know today is the day for you and your friends to meet up, so I came here to see you off."
"Ace, you are so kind! Why are you so kind! Hahahaha, ah, by the way, I haven't congratulated you on becoming the Four Emperors yet! I even saw the newspaper in the daughter country~"
"My target is not just the Four Emperors, you must have some sense of crisis."
After hearing this, Luffy jumped down from Ace, wiped the tip of his nose with his index finger, and said with a silly smile: "Are you talking about One Piece? Don't worry, I won't give it up to you, I will go all out, these two years I have become very strong, I will definitely be the Pirate King!"
Ace had a smile in his eyes: "Don't cry if you lose."
"I won't cry!"
Luffy huffed.
He is no longer the little Luffy he used to be.
I won’t cry easily.
Why do you need to remember these dark histories so clearly~
Ace thought of something and stopped smiling: "I'm here this time, and there are two more things I want to tell you."
Luffy will be very happy to hear this, right?
Will it heal the deepest sorrow in his heart?
Ace has already sensed the surrounding environment with the Haki of Seeing and Hearing, so he can rest assured that there is no one eavesdropping nearby.
Although he is not the kind of person who talks a lot, he doesn't want Luffy to be sad all the time and unable to truly feel relieved.
"what?"
Luffy was quite happy to see Ace share something with him.
"Actually, Xiao Niba, she is..."
"I know."
Luffy interrupted Ace's words, lowered his head, and his smile disappeared in an instant: "I knew it from the beginning."
He never questioned it.
He just said angry words when he was fighting a war.
At that moment, he was really angry, angry and sad.
Only then would he say something like "You are not Xiaoluo".
"Then...why are you unhappy?"
Luffy's reaction was completely different from what Ace had expected.
He thought he would be excited, happy, and cry with laughter when he heard the news.
Even if you knew Xiaoluo's identity in advance, you should have patted him on the shoulder and said, "What, just this? I already knew it, hahaha."
Something like that?
But his expression was calm, even a little sad?
why?
"You're not still angry about that thing, are you? Do you blame her for stopping you from saving me? Actually, that's because..."
Luffy shook his head slightly: "No."
"I just don't want her to be in trouble."
"Although I don't know why Xiaoluo did that, you still survived in the end, didn't you?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about this, what is the other thing?"
Luffy raised his head again and looked at Ace eagerly.
Ace could feel Luffy changing.
Becoming a little more mature.
I felt a little distressed immediately, after all, growth comes at a price.
He was stunned for a moment before saying: "Saab is not dead either."
"?"
Luffy heard this and blinked in confusion.
After a while, he came to his senses: "You mean Saab? Saab?"
"Ah."
"Is it really him? Where is he? Wasn't he...he..."
After getting the affirmative answer, Luffy suddenly became excited and was so happy that he was incoherent.
"He originally wanted to come to you, but it seems like something happened and he couldn't leave."
Ash paused: "I didn't expect that one day our three brothers would meet again."
"Is he in the new world? Can I go see him when I see him!"
For Luffy, this is great news.
"In the new world, their whereabouts are uncertain, so I'm afraid they won't be so easy to encounter."
"Hahahaha, it doesn't matter. I believe we will meet one day!"
Because they are sworn brothers, as long as they want to see each other, how can they not see each other?
Seeing Luffy's happy face, his smile made Ace feel a little dazed, as if he saw another person.
He couldn't help but reached out and pinched the other person's rubber face.
It's soft, but not as white and tender as that person's.
He had long wanted to do this to Xiaoluo.
It's a pity that people not only don't like him, but also hate him.
Despite this, Ace still sent new people to sneak into the navy headquarters and let people help him keep an eye on every move there.
If Aluo is in danger, he will receive the news as soon as possible.
He doesn't care if people like him or not, he just wants to protect that woman silently in his life.
Willingly.
Luffy naturally didn't notice the change in his brother's expression.
It's not like he hasn't been pinched by his two brothers before.
It's a very common interaction.
Suddenly, Ace felt a movement in the distance. It seemed like the navy had entered the forest. He pulled Luffy and said, "Someone is coming. Let's go."
"Good~"
The two left the place quickly.
Afterwards, Ace helped Luffy find his companions.
Until everyone gathered together and saw them safely boarding the Thousand Miles of Sunshine, slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea, heading to Fish-Man Island.
Ace dealt with the navy for a while, then jumped on his own boat and left the Chambord Islands.
Many "pacifists" were scrapped.
Ace, Luffy, Zoro and others killed them all.
This time, the Navy failed and only caught a few counterfeiters.
Let the real Straw Hat Pirates escape from under their noses.
Soon, the matter was reported back to the Navy Headquarters.
Xiaoluo, who was sitting on the office chair, casually flipped through the reports presented by his subordinates.
Because she understands the plot and everything that happens on the Chambord Islands, there is no need to read it in detail.
However, a person's name suddenly appeared in her sight.
"Ace...?"
Did he go there too?
Somehow, after seeing that person's name, Xiaoluo picked up the report and read it carefully from beginning to end, as if he wanted to find more of that person in it.
She learned from the report that Ace didn't do anything extreme except sending Luffy away.
It actually shocked the local residents. Knowing that the Four Emperors had gone to their island, they thought there would be an inevitable war.
Looking at the description on the paper, Xiaoluo seemed to have seen the scene of the two people together and felt warm.
From now on, Ace will accompany Luffy through the long years, right?
Because Charlie said that there was only one disaster in Ace's life, and her bratty brother had the halo of pig's feet and would not die easily.
so.......
Thinking of this, the corners of Xiaoluo's mouth rose slightly, and even she didn't notice it.
By the way, Sabo has also recovered his memory. I hope the three of them can reunite soon.
Thinking back to my last life, I always wanted to see that scene in my dreams.
