Pirates: I am a daddy's girl in the White Group

This is the second time I've seen this expression.

Ace stared at Garp in a daze, and his thoughts went back to last night.

Although he was the most popular naval hero in the navy, he only returned to the navy headquarters the day before the war started.

The first thing this navy hero did when he came back was to go to the sixth floor of the underwater prison to visit Ace, the "Fire Fist", who was imprisoned there.

"Lieutenant General Garp!"

The voices of soldiers greeting were heard outside the wall, and the iron gate opened. Jinbei, who was bound by chains, looked up when he heard the voice, and then his fish eyes widened in shock.

Ignoring Jinbe's shock, Garp's eyes were fixed on Ace who lowered his head.

As if sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Ace slowly raised his head.

"Stinky old man? Why are you here?"

Garp opened his mouth with a hoarse voice, and finally said only one sentence, "Ace...you bastard."

"......"

The air was quiet for a moment, and then Ace sneered, "Don't be like this, old man, even if this is the case, I won't call you grandpa."

"Who cares? No! You should call me grandpa!"

“…”

The air was quiet again, leaving only Jinbe's fish eyes widening again, then blinking in confusion.

After a long while, Ace spoke slowly.

"You shouldn't be here, old man."

The head that was originally raised lowered again, "This is the path I chose myself, and I have never said whether I will regret it or not."

"If I can only get this far, it just shows that I am just like this, right?"

"not to mention..."

Ace raised his eyes, and his dark pupils looked at Garp in front of him.

"As a naval hero, you should know that my identity should not exist in the first place, right?"

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, Ace's eyes were firm.

He knew that he shouldn't let anyone close to him...

[What identity? What grandfather? What shouldn't exist. ]

Jinbei, who should have a strong presence, was ignored by the two people at the same time and continued to blink in confusion.

The boy's face was covered with scars of varying sizes, but his eyes were filled with ambition, and he seemed to have no fear of the impending execution at all.

With the same expression, Garp stared at Ace in a daze, and his thoughts seemed to have gone back to 21 years ago.

It’s the same cage, the same railings.

Roger seemed to have the same expression, mocking the powerlessness of death. He looked at him in the same way and entrusted Esto to him in the same way.

It's been 21 years, and it's rare for Cap to be distracted.

When was the last time I saw Ace? It seemed like 4 years ago. At that time, this brat had not yet secretly run out to sea. His face was still so childish, not as... unruly as it is now?

But even though four years have passed, this kid... is only 20 years old.

Garp closed his eyes, and his tone softened, "I know what I should do, but Ace..."

"If Luffy and the Whitebeard Pirates come to rescue you, are you going to just sit there and wait to die?"

Perhaps it was the rare gentleness of Iron Fist Garp, or the meaning of his words, Ace was stunned for a moment, then turned his head away.

"Luffy knows that I have my own adventures, and he won't come."

Garp raised his eyebrows and suddenly felt like eating the senbei in his pocket.

The crunching sound made Ace turn his head speechlessly and look at Garp helplessly.

"Don't eat senbei at this time. If you do eat it, at least give me some."

"If you want to eat it, buy it yourself later." Kapu continued to bite it with a crunching sound.

"What about the Whitebeard Pirates? Do you think they won't come to rescue you?"

"Will not..."

Ace murmured in a low voice. Based on his behavior in Panaro Island, Xiao Xuehua should be able to understand what he meant....

I think so... Even if she is angry, yes, Xiao Xuehua has always been a person with a broad perspective. She can distinguish the pros and cons of it, and the possible casualties of sacrificing me and the entire pirate group.

"Hmph." Karp patted the debris on his hands.

"You are too self-centered, Ace. From what I know about Luffy, that kid might be in the underwater prison right now."

"I don't know about the Whitebeard Pirates, but White-haired Davi... I don't think she would give up like this."

"Ace, if they come to rescue you..."

"Stay alive, you shouldn't be here."

"When I came here just now, there was a lot of turmoil up there. You should be able to hear from Luffy soon."

"What? Luffy really came here? Why is he here? Doesn't he know it's dangerous here? Hey, old man?! Wait, wait a minute!"

Ace's eyes widened and he shouted at Garp's back.

Karp just waved and said nothing more.

Ace suddenly had a very bad premonition, and soon a prison guard came to inform him that the Empress Boa Hancock wanted to meet with him.

It also brought news that Luffy was trying to rescue him.

Ace leaned his head back against the wall, the chains on his body preventing him from making any further movements.

Luffy has proven how self-righteous he is, so isn’t that right, Snowflake and Daddy…

Ace suddenly wanted to cover his face. What he did in Panaro Island...

He suddenly felt a little regretful and ashamed, regretting that he shouldn't have been so smart as to seek his own death.

I am even more ashamed of the secret joy in my heart at this moment.

【——————————】

Ace came back to his senses when he felt the chains on his hands being pulled.

The Garp in front of him had already turned and left, and the chains pulled him towards the execution platform.

With two knives across his chest, Ace knelt on the execution platform.

The second screen of the live Den Den Mushi lit up, and it was aimed right here.

Holding a Den Den Mushi in his hand, Sengoku walked forward step by step, his eyes fixed on the sea in front of him.

"【Fire Fist】Ace, do you know the crime you have committed?"

"… .."

"The significance of this war is not just to execute the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, but also to cut off the bloodline of the Pirate King Goldo Roger!"

"Portgas D. Ace! Your real name should be Goldo Ace! You are the last bloodline of Pirate King Roger left in this world!"

"And Whitebeard wants to train you to become the next Pirate King! That's why he put you, a fledgling, under his wing for protection!"

The sound was transmitted throughout the square through the Den Den Mushi, and also resounded throughout the entire Shampoo Archipelago.

"certainly not!"

Ace almost roared in response.

"There is only one father of mine!"

"That's the old man with the white beard, Edward Newgate!"

"Besides....I boarded that ship just to make him the Pirate King!"
