Pirates, swordsmen who gradually grow up to liberate the world

Ace was naturally the one who stepped in first, while Luffy, who ran in behind, fell to the floor.

"Luffy, a portion of your meat today belongs to me, haha."

Ace crossed his arms, wearing a leather wristband on his bent wrists, with messy hair and freckles on his face.

There is a band-aid on the bridge of his nose, which makes him look a little handsome.

Finding that there were other strangers he had never seen before in the store, he looked at Alsace and Gion with his eyes.

Who are these two people?

"As expected, Sabo is still gentle..." The aggrieved Luffy lay on the ground dejectedly.

Ever since he made up his mind to become stronger, he has never defeated Ace once, and Ace has never given up to him.

"Hey, Luffy..."

"I know! I'll just give you the meat... I'm willing to admit defeat."

"No, Luffy..."

Luffy got up from the floor, adjusted the straw hat Shanks had given him, and looked at the two people in front of the bar of Maginot Tavern.

"So...so handsome! What is that? A jersey?"

The two brothers had very different first impressions of Alsace.

In Ace's eyes, he was not attracted by the protective armor on the exquisite battle robe, but instead noticed the spine-chilling aura in Alsace's deep eyes.

Alsace sneered and leaned on the bar with his hands open, looking at the two of them.

Compared to Ace's somewhat mature eyes, Luffy looked too immature and childlike.

He didn't take the initiative to say hello to Luffy or Ace.

The two walked to the bar, jumped on the stools, waved to Maginot, and shouted at the same time:

"Meat."

Maginot smiled gently, stroked their heads and said, "Sorry...Ace, Luffy, today's food was all eaten by the guests."

"Liar..." Ace turned his head and looked at the huge dinner plate behind Alsace. His eyes widened. He felt that it was not enough for a human to eat...

How much did these two guys eat... more than Luffy?

"Are you Rubber? Straw Hat Boy?" Alsace asked subconsciously.

"Yeah!" Luffy nodded and responded lively.

After taking a sip of wine, he continued to ask Luffy, "How did you get here?"

"Last time I was angry and accidentally ate Shanks... Uh! Uh!" Luffy wanted to tell Shanks, but was stopped by the village chief and Maginot.

His mouth was blocked and he couldn't speak.

But based on those few words, Alsace already knew the answer.

Even if he killed Fuzifu, he couldn't stop the Nika Fruit from finding a host.

Is it inevitable that Luffy will be chosen by that fruit?

"Did they eat it?" Ace looked a little dazed in front of Maginot, pointing at Alsace and Gion and asked Maginot.

"That's right. There are food ingredients in the warehouse. I'm going to make some for you." Maginot let go of Ace and walked towards the warehouse behind the bar.

"Someone..." At this time, Alsace suddenly spoke to the peach rabbit beside him, and he sensed the arrival of a familiar presence near Mount Kolbo.

"Who?"

"It's Feng, it should be that guy..."

Dorag? It seems that he is still very worried about his son. Will he come back from time to time?

Gion stared at Garp's grandson and thought he was very cute. He had only heard of it when he and Garp had dinner together, but now he finally saw it.

"I'm going to check on the situation, Pink Rabbit." Arthas stood up and walked behind Luffy before leaving the bar.

I pinched Luffy's cheek on my own initiative and found that it stretched like rubber before confirming it.

"Uh..." The moment Luffy was touched by Alsace, his soul seemed to be suppressed, his eyes widened, and he broke into a cold sweat of fear.

The body trembled involuntarily.

"It's so cold, what's going on?"

"Let go of Luffy! Strangers don't touch my brother." Ace pushed Arthas' hand away, got off the chair and stood in front of Luffy.

I see, it seems that it is true that devil fruits will choose their masters...

After leaving the bar, Alsace met a cloaked man wearing a dark green coat.

He has a fierce appearance and sharp eyes. There is a tattoo on the cheek that looks like a square tattoo.

The two met on the street of the village. The man stared at Alsace with an extremely serious expression and said, "You shouldn't be here."

The visitor was none other than Luffy's father, Dorag, who often went home to visit Luffy secretly and observe his growth.

"The sea is so big, I can go wherever I want. Your argument is of no use to me." Arthas responded to Dorag.

He seemed particularly disdainful because Dorag had shown hostility to him.

"Why did you contact Luffy? If you hold a grudge because of what I said to you before, I will apologize to you now."

Having already learned about the government's heavy losses, Dorag realized how stupid he had been.

We have lost a talent and a great talent who could fight against the World Government. Unfortunately, we can no longer take back what we said.

"Apologise? What's the use of that? When I killed the Tianlong people, as the leader of the anti-government forces, you did not choose to support me, but you were afraid of being implicated and became hostile to me?"

"No one expected that you would achieve what you have now."

The dragon's response reminded Arthas of something.

That is what is called ‘ability’.

This thing is very strange. When a person is at his lowest, he will be ridiculed for anything he does, and he will not even be contacted or trusted by others.

He is afraid that the person he underestimates will affect his career and connections, lowering the status of those who are above him.

However, when the person in the valley climbed out of the valley, he went straight to the mountain peak and was flattered by those who disliked him. He began to become harmonious and close to explain everything he had done in the past.

To please...

Facing such a person, Arthas just stared into Long's eyes and said, "Do you know who the most pitiful person in the world is?"

"What do you mean?"

"The kind of person who has been hurt and can still forgive those who hurt his enemies. Do you think I am that kind of person? Dorag."

Dorag recalled everything he said to Arthas on the spire of Canra Island a few years ago...

No one could have imagined that that arrogant brat would reach this stage. Almost all the boys who were enemies of the World Government in the past disappeared silently under the assassination of the government.

"Our goal is the same, Alsace, we are both world governments. I hope we will not fight on the same goal."

A person who is soft-hearted is an unhappy person. He would never forget Dorag's hostile aura.

However, it seems that it is a little early to confront the revolutionary army.

"Yes, when I found no one to help me, I started eating people, planning, and ruling the West Sea... Until now, you tell me that we have the same goal."

"This issue is a dead end. With your current experience, you can't possibly understand it, right?"

It is indeed a dead end. No matter which world you are in, being weak is a sin in itself, and the weak deserve to be isolated.

Arthas turned and left, saying his last goodbyes to the dragon:

"I won't take action against your son for the time being, but I will tease him. I hope you Mengqi clan will not follow the footsteps of the Babao Navy and be slaughtered by me."

With these words, Dorag's hanging heartstrings slowly let go.

Looking at Alsace leaving, he murmured: "The enemy of the future..."

Alsace, who is also a father and has just lost Rolle, has not yet come out of that shadow. How could he not know that Dorag was worried about Luffy?

But it is this threat that can suppress Dolag so that his guerrilla troops will not provoke him and his forces.
