I'm a pirate, I'm Luffy

Windmill Village of Goa Kingdom in the East China Sea.

Ace's return was unexpected by everyone, including Garp. After all, now is the time when the entire sea and the entire Whitebeard Pirates are in turmoil. If Ace comes back at this time, not to mention encountering enemies alone, the New World should also be there. His strength is much needed.

So, why come back at this time?

But no matter what, "You are not allowed to report anything that happens here!"

No one dared to disobey Garp's orders.

"Yes!"

Garp sympathizes with his men, but if this matter is still known to the headquarters, he will definitely investigate to the end!

.......

Inside the Maginot Tavern.

"Ah~"

"Thank you, Maginot, your beer is delicious."

Ace drank a small barrel of beer directly.

Maginot smiled back, "Ace, your drinking capacity has improved."

Ace rubbed the back of his head.

"Hahaha, yes, after all, I have been at sea for a few years."

Dadan sat across from Ace, folding his arms and staring at Ace with an indifferent expression.

She is also arrogant and will not show too many emotions in front of her children. Of course, she still has a lot of anger.

"I found out about your arrest in the newspaper. Just be fine, Ace."

"Do you know where Luffy is going?"

Dadan didn't dare to mention Bai Yun, such as his funeral, because she was afraid and couldn't help crying when she mentioned it.

"Luffy is fine. He is safe now. One of our seniors is taking care of him. With this senior, few people on the sea can hurt him. Don't worry."

Ace replied while eating, like a starving ghost.

Maginot was relieved to see that he had such a good appetite.

"Well, that's good. Luffy's temper is like that. What kind of war is that?! You dare to go!!"

"That's true, your brother was arrested, and the two of them..."

I deliberately didn't mention Bai Yun, but after spending so many years together and having him in my memory, how could I forget, so I just said it casually.

The scene fell silent for an instant.

Dadan picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp to hide his emotions.

And Ace is still eating.

Then go straight to the point of thunder.

"Bai Luck is dead."

"puff!!"

The Dadan family behind Dadan couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of wine.

Maginot also let go, and the cup in his hand fell directly to the ground. Fortunately, it was a wooden barrel cup.

They immediately turned their attention to Dadan, watching his reaction.

Dadan was also stunned. He didn't expect Ace to be so direct.

Dadan didn't know what to say. She was sad, but she knew that Ace, as Bai Yun's brother, couldn't help being sad.

"Bai Luck is dead, but he can be resurrected."

"..."

"what?!!!"

The sound of surprise from Dadan and the others made the roof of the entire tavern fly up.

"What do you mean?!"

"Ace, what do you mean by that?!"

"resurrection?!"

Everyone in Dadan's family came closer to ask questions, leaving Dadan squeezed in the middle.

Without Ace's reply, Dadan shook them all away with force.

"You are going to squeeze me to death!!"

Although the tone was angry, Dadan's eyes were a little more expectant.

"Ace, I can understand what you are saying... Bai Lun can still live, right?!"

Dadan looked at Ace expectantly, as did Maginot and Dadan's family.

There were food residues around Ace's mouth. Under everyone's expectant gazes, Ace nodded with simple eyes.

"Yes."

"real!!!?"

Ace stood up, walked to Magura, pulled up his clothes and wiped his mouth, then nodded affirmatively again.

"Really, this is what the letter left by Bai Yun said."

"I believe in him."

Dadan nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, this kid has been a ghost since he was a child. He can't possibly be lying to us!!"

Everyone in the Dadan family looked at each other and burst into cheers the next second.

"Great!!!"

The tavern roof jumped again.

Ace saw that the smiles on their faces had returned, and he couldn't help but smile. This was the reason why he came to Windmill Village.

He knew that Dadan, Maginot and others would be saddened by the news that they had died in vain.

Maybe it was to prevent him from being sad.

Maybe it was to relax by myself.

Or maybe because of other reasons, he felt that he had to come and tell them, and he just came to tell them. After telling them, he had to continue to go back to the new world. The turmoil of the Whitebeard Pirates was not over yet, and in the future, the Whitebeard Pirates Ace didn't know where the group was going or what to do.

........

"Okay, it's time for me to leave. I'm a pirate. If I stay too long, the villagers here will be worried."

"Besides, I have something else to do."

Bai Yun died. Although he could be resurrected, Ace became much calmer because of this incident.

Dadan lit another cigarette and said, "Huh~"

"Well, we know. Just go ahead and do your thing, Ace... take care of yourself."

If Ace took care of himself when he first went to sea, Dadan couldn't say this, but Dadan knew what Ace was going through at this time, and it was okay to care.

"Well, I will."

"Don't stay here too long. What I mean is, try not to meet grandpa. I'm afraid he will see something from your emotional changes."

"After all, grandpa is in the navy."

Ace gave his final instructions.

Dadan was surprised when he heard this, "Garp doesn't know about Bai Luck?"

Ace shook his head slightly.

Dadan was stunned for a moment and then smiled again, "Hahaha, that's fine, let him, an old bastard, feel guilty for a while, why can't he be so close but not see you!!"

Ace was reluctant to comment on this, and after saying goodbye again, he left the tavern.

.......

Ace left the tavern and looked in the direction of Mount Colpo, where he grew up. The appearance of the mountain was still the same as when he was a child, unchanged.

Ace didn't go for a walk to reminisce about the past.

Now is not the time, not the most suitable time. I have to go back. I am too lonely.

Not knowing what he was thinking, Ace withdrew his gaze and walked towards the dock. It was time to go back to the new world. His friends were all fighting, and he couldn't be alone.

........

Windmill Village Pier.

Ace's flame boat is parked here.

But at this time, Garp was in front of the boat, with his arms folded, he was the only one.

Garp sensed Ace's arrival instantly and turned around to look without speaking.

It was Ace who spoke first, "Grandpa."

Garp then put down his hands and said, "Ace..."

"Why did you come to Windmill Village?"

"This is not the time for you to miss the past."
