Pirate Free Bastard

Chapter 271 Hostage
"..." Ace looked up and down Rez with puzzled eyes, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

Although when he was a child, Rez, the lazy big brother, held his head firmly because of his strength and age, but now he is the captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates, a natural ability, Fire Fist Ace His reputation is even more famous in the New World.

In other words, I, who offered a bounty of 5 million Bailey, didn't even notice the actions of my big brother Rez.Although it's because of my own carelessness and lack of concentration, is Rez's strength so strong?

Ace hesitated for a while, and finally frowned and asked, "I'm leaving, what are you doing on my boat? Didn't you say you don't need my care?"

"You haven't tasted your sister-in-law's craft yet, how can you just leave like this?"

Rez pushed Ace who was standing in front of him, waved to Hancock, and said, "Honey, bring me two big chicken legs."

"Well, I know!" Hancock smiled sweetly, picked up the chicken leg and threw it at Rez.

With a whooping sound, the chicken leg burst out of the air, forming a blurry black shadow in the air, and finally fell into Rez's hands accurately.

"This kind of skill, this speed, I'm afraid the strength of my sister-in-law is not simple..."

Ace clicked his tongue in admiration, and looked at Hancock with some surprise.This sister-in-law who claimed to have acne on her face and was inconvenient to see others always gave herself a familiar feeling.Especially her name, as if she had heard it somewhere.

"It's not so simple to be surprised by her strength, it's better to say that Rez's strength... has reached a level that is scary. You know, the sand crocodile, one of the Seven Seas of Martial Arts, is—"

The long-nosed sniper boasted about Rez's strength triumphantly, as if he was satisfied with having a partner who was strong enough to be reliable.But as soon as he said a few words, his voice stopped abruptly, and he pointed at the shadow of the boat in front of him dumbfounded.

"What? This warship is... the navy nicknamed Smokey is chasing after it!" Luffy was shocked, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat, which made him feel chilly all over.

Luffy was severely beaten by Smoker in Rogue Town, and because Rez had kidnapped Smoker a few years ago, Smokey Marine Smoker worked harder to practice the armed color, which made Luffy experience something different sour feeling.

"..." Sauron and other fighters stood in front of them, staring at the approaching naval warships with a look of tension.

The silence of the few people at this moment has a special momentum, like the sea before the storm, dull but with infinite power hidden.As long as a signal-like breeze blows, the few people will turn into a terrifying and roaring sea tide, rushing towards the warship.

However, to everyone's surprise, Smoker and all the navies on board sailed straight towards Ace as if they hadn't seen the Meili.

"Fire Fist Ace, hand over your hostages! Otherwise, I will never spare you!"

Smoker was smoking a cigar, raised his eyebrows and shouted in a deep voice.His body was shrouded in smoke, and the cloak of justice was raised high behind him under the sea breeze. Combined with his perennial stern expression, he looked majestic and righteous.

"People... hostages?"

Ace was confused, he turned around for no reason, and glanced at the boat carefully, but the result made him even more astonished.He pointed to Rez, then pointed to Hancock, and asked, "Are you talking about this, or this? No, sister-in-law, when did you come up?"

"Hehe..." Hancock chuckled, still in a "full disguise" appearance, making it difficult for people to see her face clearly, only a pleasant voice spread: "Just now, when you looked at this navy .”

"Ah, that's right." Ace frowned slightly, and muttered to himself, the doubts in his heart were still unsolved.Even if he lost his focus because he saw Smoker's warship, not everyone could just approach him casually.Regarding the situation of Rez and his sister-in-law, maybe because of the recent arrest and killing of Blackbeard, he was too nervous and tired.

It has to be said that first impressions have a profound impact on people.Especially under the circumstances, Ace's evaluation of Rez's strength has always stayed at the point of "a lazy pirate who has never really sailed".

In Ace's heart, the strength of his big brother Rez is really ordinary compared to himself and Luffy.As far as sailing is concerned, the guy did need a little care from his brother.If the eldest brother Rez is a strong person, the probability is estimated to be even slimmer than that of the sea, land and air amphibious sea kings.

Ace shook his head, gave up some impossible thoughts, turned to Smoker, and asked, "Hey, smoker, who is the hostage you are talking about?"

"Stop rambling, of course it's the man behind you. His name is Rez, you don't know him!" Smoker's voice was still low and indifferent, and he looked up and down Ace with scrutiny between his words, with a look The appearance of a wise man who said "I know why you caught Rez".

"Of course I know—" Ace responded subconsciously, suddenly feeling something was wrong.Captain Smoker kept saying that Rez was a hostage, what did his lazy brother do?

But before Ace asked Rez, he saw the lazy brother Rez waving at Smoker excitedly.

"Mr. Smoker, and this woman is also a hostage, she is my wife!" Rez grinned, and pointed in Hancock's direction with an extremely proud expression.

"Ah, I see..." Smoker reluctantly responded, frowning and staring.

Although she couldn't see her face clearly, the woman Rez called his wife had a good figure and was quite stylishly dressed.Not to mention the jewelry, but the other party's exquisite and beautiful clothes would cost at least tens of millions of Baileys.Thinking of a "good citizen" who has the courage to cooperate with the navy, but has such a prodigal wife like a vase, Smoker said, it hurts a bit.

Rez pursed his lower lip slightly, his face was tense, he nodded frequently at Smoker, and said, "I didn't expect you to still want to save me. I'm so thankful."

"Don't take it too seriously, this is what I should do." Smoker replied blankly, turned to look at Ace with scorching eyes, and said to himself: Protect civilians from pirates, especially It is an important thing that it is a civilian who has cooperated with the navy.That's... justice.

"Uh... what are you talking about?" Ace was stunned, he scratched his head vigorously, still feeling his scalp numb.

This guy Rez has been hiding his sailing deeds. Could it be that he was in the navy?Otherwise, why would the dignified colonel of the Navy Headquarters care so much about a hostage?

Seeing the conversation between Rez and Smoker, Ace finally couldn't bear it any longer. He turned around and asked Rez loudly, "You guy, you must have been in the navy!"

Rez shook his head lightly, and said, "No, but I have been a naval chef."

"Navy chef? Just rely on your monotonous dishes?" Ace asked, grabbing Rez's collar, his tone was full of contempt.Doesn't he know how much his eldest brother weighs? When he was in Fengche Village, Rez basically seldom cooked, and he always went to the town to "touch porcelain to fight against robbery".

"Ahem... um..." Hancock coughed twice, his beautiful eyes fixed on Ace, as if reminding him of something.

"Forget about sister-in-law here..." Ace was startled, and immediately let go.With my sister-in-law present, I have to save some face for Rez.At the same time, Ace also wanted to understand one thing: Rez is his eldest brother, and there is no need to doubt his identity.After all, a certain old vice admiral is also his relative!
Smoker was "unyielding" and yelled at Ace: "Hey, you guy, don't touch the hostages. Bullying the weak is not the style of the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"Although I don't know the relationship between you and Rez, I don't allow you... to insult the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates!" Ace's voice suddenly became cold, and on the contrary, there was a wave of blood on his body. The huge flame was like a sun emitting infinite heat.The scorching flames covered his whole body, scorching the air mercilessly, making it almost impossible to see his figure clearly.

"Firefly... Fire Dharma!"

A deep voice came from the flames, and a stronger heat gushed out in all directions, causing the bright fire to falter a little, and yellow flames burst out in the void, beautiful and dangerous.

Obviously, Ace launched an attack on Smoker in order to maintain the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates.But an embarrassing muttering made the Fire Fist feel discouraged, and even the flame attack that had been brewing disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Ahem, you should be careful, don't burn my wife's clothes."

"...Understood!" Ace responded sadly and resentfully. Just as his flaming body was about to shoot out, he suddenly heard the whisper of his elder brother Rez.

"Well, take it easy, I still rely on him to do business, and then make money to support my wife."

"...I got it!!" Ace yelled impatiently, and rushed forward, his semi-elemental face was indifferent and angry, and his heart was as helpless as when Rez robbed him of dinner.If he could, Ace thought he would have punched Rez in the face.
