good brother

Due to the intrusion of the pirates, the people in the square suddenly became dense, large and small battles emerged one after another, and Luffy had to do his best just to avoid the attacks of those admirals.

Moreover, even if he tried his best, even with Sabo's care, he couldn't dodge some attacks at all.

"call out--!"

"what!"

"Luffy!"

Sabo helped Luffy block the attack of the lieutenants, but the laser shot from the distant yellow monkey pierced through Luffy's body before any of them could react.

"If you have guts but no strength, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to save people."

The yellow monkey came to the side of Luffy who had collapsed on the ground. Sabo wanted to go to the rescue, but was held back by the lieutenant generals. He could only watch Luffy being kicked away.

"Luffy!"

But fortunately, Luffy just flew into the hands of Whitebeard, which also made Sabo breathe a sigh of relief, and continued to concentrate on fighting the enemy.

"Straw hat boy!"

Suddenly, Ivankov's big head appeared on the iron wall, and Jinping stood beside him.

"Ivan-chan! Luffy will be counting on you first!"

Sabo shook off several lieutenant generals with a water hose, wiped the blood on his forehead, and said with a smile.

"I'll go find you when I solve the situation here!"

"Hmph! Be careful! Don't end up with someone else instead!"

Ivan is obviously still holding grudges, but he and Jinbe climbed down the wall together and came to the side of Luffy who had collapsed to the ground.

"You can't fight like this, Straw Hat Boy."

Ivankov squatted beside the fainted Luffy and said.

"You've done enough from the Great Prison to the Naval Headquarters, so rest well."

On the other hand, Margao saw that there was nothing he needed to help on this side of the battlefield, so he simply spread his wings and rushed straight to the execution platform with blue flames.

However, just as he was about to rush in front of Ace, an iron fist mercilessly knocked him back to the ground.

The iron fist that is full of love for the grandchildren does not leave the slightest sympathy when facing the enemy.

"grandfather……"

Ace stared blankly at the figure who jumped down from his front and made it to the general's seat.

"Capsang, you've made up your mind too."

Angel looked at that stalwart figure and smiled in relief.

"Just one person is an impenetrable line of defense."

As lieutenant general Qu Qu, he sat in the special seat of the general so calmly, and no one in the audience was dissatisfied with it.

Naval heroes, living legends.

And they, the most important family.

After all, for the enemy.

The chaotic war is still going on, every second someone falls down, and every second someone will stand up, bleeding and continuing to fight.

The sound of explosions and screams surrounded the entire Marlin Peak, and the red-stained ground and the smoke from the gunfire made the whole square look like an endless hell.

The captains began to suffer from the general's strategy and strength, and Whitebeard also began to show fatigue under the red dogs and countless attacks.

It now appears that the navy has the upper hand.

Even so, no one gave up hope, no one wanted to back down.

For Ace, they are still fighting desperately.

"Ok?"

Angel looked at Ace who suddenly lowered his head, and asked worriedly.

"Hey Ace! Are you okay!"

"I……"

To Angel's surprise, Ace's voice turned into tears.

"...What a bastard!"

"Father, brother, and comrades fell down bleeding one after another..."

"But I... I'm so happy that I can't stop crying!"

As he said, Ace was already tearing up at this time, and he couldn't make a whimpering sound until he gritted his teeth.

Once upon a time, he always thought that his life was not worth mentioning, no matter whether he was dead or alive, no one would care about it, and even countless people would applaud him because of his departure.

And the love that those family members and brothers gave him silently was always ignored by him.

Until now, it has become a lesson of blood and tears.

Kneeling on the execution platform for the first time to have the idea of ​​wanting to live, how sad, how lamentable.

But all of this is his own fault, and he can't blame others.

"It's only now that I understand the value of life!"

He wanted to live, not for those who hated him, not for those who laughed at him, not even for himself.

But for those who love him deeply, for those who will cry for him, for those who want to live with him!

And when Angel heard this, the old memory revived again.

Ah... it seems... there is indeed this paragraph...

Forget it, those are not important anymore...

This is no longer the Pirate World I remember.

Don't panic about what has happened, no matter whether it appears in the original book or not.

Face everything calmly, this already belongs to me, a unique world.

"Ace, I..."

Angel said lightly.

"Although I hate this war very much, I have to thank it."

"Without this war, I don't know how long it would take you to have the opportunity to manage such a transformation."

"Sai Weng loses his horse, how can I know that it is not a blessing."

"Since it has happened, don't think about those sad things anymore."

"What you need to think about now is not what your companions have paid for you."

"It's about how you behave and repay their efforts."

As he spoke, Angel smiled and looked at Ace who had raised his head.

"clear?"

"clear."

Although the tears are still wet, Ace is not the kind of person who will always indulge in pain.

"I've been confused, I've been confused, I've been in pain, and the rest is to believe them..."

Ace said quietly.

"Then, bear the long-cherished wish of those who fell, and live strong."

"……Well……"

"Oh, you're awake, Straw Hat Boy."

Ivankov just finished throwing a death wink when he found that Luffy who had been lying down for a few minutes slowly opened his eyes.

"Ivan sauce..."

At this moment, Luffy couldn't use all his strength, so he could only lie on the ground panting.

"I have something to ask you..."

"what?"

Ivankov asked.

"Give me another shot of hyperactive hormones!"

"...Are you kidding me!"

Ivankov refused without hesitation.

"Do you know what your body is like now! Your body has already exceeded its limit all the way from Impel! If you continue to mess around, you will really die!"

"...do your best... die without regret..."

Luffy suddenly extended his arms and grabbed Ivankov by the collar.

"But...if Ace dies here because I didn't fight..."

Luffy raised his head and shouted loudly.

"I don't want to live anymore!"

"Don't say that! Luffy!"

Suddenly a voice came from the side, attracting the attention of the two.

"Sabo?"

Sabo was also in a mess at this time, his blue dress had several big cuts, and half of his body was stained red with blood.

"Sabo! You came just in time, so please persuade your brother!"

Ivankov shouted.

However, Sabo didn't say much, he just walked over, looked down at Luffy's unwavering eyes, and was silent for a moment.

then……

"Inject him with hormones, Ivan-chan."

"Are you crazy too!"

Ivankov shouted in disbelief.

"That's your brother! You'll kill him like this!"

"You won't die here right away, will you?"

"I know your ability, even if you get another injection, Luffy won't be unable to survive if you leave, and at most you will lose a few years of life."

Sabo raised his head and met Ivankov's eyes.

"As long as there is time, there is hope for a resolution."

"But... the time left for us to save Ace is running out."

"If we don't do our best now, we will regret it for the rest of our lives."

"...you people!"

Ivankov shouted in despair.

"Anyway, it's your own life! It's up to you!"

"If the dragon turns around and pursues it, you can explain it to him yourself!"

"Excitement—hormone!"

The originally weak body was miraculously full of strength again at the moment the hormone was injected. Luffy stood up steadily, shouting to vent his full strength.

"Ooooooooooh! Ah! It hurts!"

Luffy covered his head and looked back at Sabo who just gave him a tube in the head.

"Sabo what are you doing!"

"Who told you just now that if Ace dies here, you want to die too!"

Sabo punched him neither light nor heavy, and said lightly.

"This is war. No one can guarantee that they will survive, and no one can guarantee that anyone will survive."

"Even if you save Ace from the execution platform, he may die in the subsequent battle!"

"When the time comes, what we have to do is not to accompany him to die."

Sabo rubbed Luffy's head and continued walking forward.

"It's about taking his part and living strong!"

The author has something to say:

Well, let's write about a small theater every other day... [Lazy face]

(Actually, I am too lazy to write today...)

Although it seems that there may not be time to come tomorrow...【Looking up at the sky】

Well, but I can adjust the status tomorrow and a small theater can still be added~

Let me take a look, I will finish the small theater of Little Ace and Angel tomorrow, and then open the next one~

By the way... I originally thought that the final volume would not be written for a long time, but even if it exploded a few days ago, there is still a paragraph left!

With 1000 favorites, I'm going to the [-]D ending!

Look at the growth rate of this collection... It seems that death is inevitable...
