Pirate's Steel Chain Finger

Chapter 376 What Did You Just Say?

The flames attached to the boiling sea water twisted and spread out, and the thick clouds and mist also disappeared.

Only then did Luffy see clearly the figure on the blue brig.Compared with three years ago, Ace has become taller and stronger. He still wears his favorite orange cowboy hat, black cropped pants on his lower body, and a delicate dagger and brown Gun holster, bare upper body only wearing a string of red bead necklaces, 'ASCE' tattooed on his left arm, the 'S' in it is crossed, and a big dark blue [V] tattooed on the back.

"Ace!!"

Luffy was overjoyed and shouted while waving vigorously.And Ace also beamed with joy, waving at Luffy with one hand on his hip.

"Is he the younger brother you often mention?" Nami, dressed in a cool cropped shirt and slim-fit jeans, with long orange curly hair hanging behind her, looked at Luffy standing on the fin deck in the distance, and raised her eyebrows: "Well, it's quite similar to you...in various senses."

Zoro and his companions also looked at Ace curiously.Karina looked surprised: "Luffy, do you know this super powerful flame man?"

"Hmm! His name is Ace, he's my brother!" Luffy said proudly, "I didn't expect him to eat a devil fruit, hahaha! But he's super powerful. I wasn't him when I didn't eat a devil fruit before. opponents, never beat him once. Looks like he's getting stronger now."

"That guy... who the hell is it?" Sanji felt that he had been greatly impacted. Could [human]'s combat power reach such a level?It was a natural disaster!
Zhefu glanced at Sanji: "Stupid boy, thanks to your self-proclaimed memory for beauties, you have seen that orange-haired girl before."

"Hey? Why don't I have any impression?"

"Think again, who gave you that revolver?"

"Uh...it's her!" Sanji just remembered that the unremarkable little girl with orange hair and poisonous tongue who followed the evil chain back then unexpectedly turned into such an outstanding beauty.That means……

He hurriedly took out an old booklet from his pocket and flipped through it quickly, then looked up at the two people on the boat, and murmured: "It really is them. One-star weather hunter 'Princess Weather' Nami, one-star weather hunter Nami Star Bounty Hunter 'Fire Fist' Ace!"

Zoro, who was standing aside, heard Sanji's words, turned his head to look at Ace and Nami, his eyes were full. [Hunter], and a hunter with a 'star'!If you pass these two people, you may have a chance to find 'Eagle Eye'!
Luffy stretched his arms excitedly, the rubberized arms stretched out infinitely, grabbed the edge of the Beagle's deck tightly, and then retracted his arms to bring himself over.As soon as he got on the boat, he happily ran towards Ace, laughing loudly: "Ace! I miss you so much! I haven't seen your reward order since two years ago...uh!"

Before he finished speaking, Luffy was knocked down by a hammer.

As a superhuman rubber fruit capable person, Luffy should have been immune to most blunt weapon blows, but the hammer hit just now made him feel severe pain.With tears in the corners of his eyes, he rubbed the back of his head vigorously and sat up from the ground. He suddenly found a little girl standing in front of him holding a hammer.

This is a beautiful little girl with short blue hair. She looks less than ten years old. She wears a long golden raincoat with a hood and holds a small wooden hammer in her hand. Her beautiful and delicate face is full of indifference. She stared at Luffy and said crisply:
"Get out of the gram!"

"Huh?" Luffy looked confused.

"Get out of here!!" The girl's voice became sharper, and she raised the small wooden hammer in her hand in a demonstration.

Nami hurried over to hug the little girl, and comforted her, "Calm down little Berger, he is Ace's younger brother, not a bad guy."

The little girl called 'Little Beagle' squinted her eyes at the innocent Ace, then glanced at Luffy, glanced back and forth several times before threatening Luffy: "...don't come near the kitchen! "

After she finished speaking, she pulled on her rubber shoes that were one size bigger and ran towards the kitchen.

Luffy scratched his head, wondering if it was an illusion. When the little girl swung the small wooden hammer at him just now, the cables on the deck seemed to be wriggling by themselves, as if they were alive, but now everything has returned to calm.

No matter so much, Luffy ran to Ace happily: "Ace, you have become so powerful now!"

"You don't look bad, Luffy." Ace looked at Luffy with a smile: "Are you officially going to sea to become a pirate?"

"Well! I'm the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates now! By the way, why is there no news about your Spades Pirates? Dadan and the others are all worried about you."

"Well... Actually, I've stopped being a pirate a long time ago." Ace scratched his cheek.

"Hey!?" Luffy opened his mouth wide.

"And, I'm [Hunter] now, a bounty hunter hunting down wanted criminals."

"Hey——!!??" Lu Fei's eyes were about to pop out: "So, Ace, you want to arrest us?"

He immediately put on a posture: "I am completely different from before, Ace! Even if the opponent is you, I will not lose!"

"You haven't beaten me once, where's your confidence?" Ace looked at Luffy with his hands on his hips, amused.

"The me now, maybe I can beat you!" Luffy smiled confidently.

Not to mention the two brothers who were reminiscing about the past, Creek, the leader standing at the bow of the huge pirate warship, had bloodshot eyes, his heart was filled with rage to the extreme, and he roared: "All the guns are aimed at that brig! Give him Blast into slag!! Open fire!!"

"But, but the admiral, the other party has a devil fruit ability..."

boom--! !

Before he finished speaking, the hesitant subordinate was blasted through the forehead by a musket, and the brains and blood were sprayed all over the head and face of the minions behind him.

Crick held a flintlock gun emitting blue smoke in his hand, and his eyes were cold: "I said, fire."

"Yes Yes!!"

Everyone took action immediately, raising semaphores to the remaining warships, and the warships sailed through the sea of ​​flames, all targeting the Beagle.

"No, they are in danger!" Sanji subconsciously jumped into the sea to swim towards the Beagle, but he was stopped by Zeff before he moved: "Silly boy, the two of them don't need your help. Take a good look." Look, the [Hunter Association] can compete with the world government not only because of the powerful combat power of the fierce chain, but also those [Hunters] are a powerful force that cannot be ignored."

On the deck of the Beagle, Ace and Nami looked at each other: "The boss is not here, who will come?"

"Come on, I'm a climate hunter, not a bounty hunter."

"alright."

Ace leaped lightly into the air at once, layers of fierce flames floated up on his body, and then turned into a huge flame vortex, hovering in the air with Ace as the center.

"Fire!!"

Following Crick's order, the overwhelming shells struck in the direction of the Beagle.

"The Great Flame Ring..."

The flame vortex continued to expand and spread more rapidly, and the core flame at the center was an ominous dark red.With a loud noise, an extremely huge dark red flame arm with a diameter of tens of meters blasted out from it, bringing a huge range of Foehn towards the oncoming artillery shells and pirate warships!

"[Red Lotus Giant]!!"

Crick only felt a dark red light flash before his eyes, and then it was pitch black.The huge dark red flame arms extended infinitely forward, and the pirate warships headed by the Creek flagship were all evaporated at the moment of contact!The surface of the sea was cut off several meters high, and the clouds in the sky also collapsed and disintegrated.

The nearby sea restaurant Baratti and the ships of the customers were protected by a thick fog that appeared at an unknown time, and they were all safe and unaffected by the aftermath.

The flames came and went quickly, and the vortex of flames in the sky shrank rapidly and condensed into a human shape, and landed steadily on the deck of the Beagle.

Ace helped up the orange cowboy hat on his head, turned to look at Luffy with a dull expression, and asked with a smile:

"What did you just say?"
