good brother

I don't want to die!don't want to die!I don't want to die!

Obviously, he thought he was ready to face death before, and he wanted to exchange his own death for Ace's life countless times before.

But now, when death was really approaching, Angel suddenly realized how reluctant he was to this world.

I don't want to leave this blue sky, I don't want to leave this magical sea, and I don't want to leave that dazzling flame.

There are so many things to do, and so many landscapes to see.

Haven't seen the three of them fulfill their dreams yet...

I... don't want to die!

But... the beating of the heart became weaker and weaker, and it became more and more difficult to breathe... the brain began to be confused, and the vision became blurred.

...has...reached the limit...

Ha, if I knew it earlier, I would have let that person come out earlier...

...That guy... should be... on the bottom of the sea...

"You won't die! You won't die!"

Ace's voice trembled, and he continued to walk faster.

"...That's...it's not up to me..."

Angor smiled wryly.

No one can stop the footsteps of the god of death. To survive, this is not something that can be accomplished with two shouts of willpower.

This place...is not the world in the manga anymore.

...ah... I can't keep my eyes open...

"...Ace..."

Angel put down his hands, and smiled at Ace with teary eyes.

"... just in case... tell me the person you like... who the hell..."

"Just in case!"

Ace yelled.

"I won't tell you! If you really want to know! Just live! I'll tell you when you recover!"

Suddenly, a drop of hot tears fell on Angel's face, Angel opened his eyes with all his might, and looked dumbly at Ace's tears, as well as those eyes full of pain and despair.

Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling came to Angel's heart.

...It seems... I know who you like...

...so cunning...don't tell me in advance...

...Are you afraid that I hate you...

...Stupid...how is it possible...

...ah... what a pity...

...if you had told me sooner...

...I...might be able to find out sooner...

...I... like you too...

...I'm sorry...Ace...

...hope this is goodbye...not forever...

Suddenly, Ace felt Angor's head sinking, and when he lowered his head, he saw Angor's closed eyes.

"...An... Geer..."

An unprecedented panic swept across Ace's body in an instant, making him unable to take a step forward.

"...don't sleep...don't sleep! Angel!"

Ace trembled violently, his legs softened and he knelt on the ground, but he didn't dare to leave Angel's face for a moment.

"Please! Open your eyes! Angel!"

At this time, Ace is like a helpless child, who can't do anything except cry and beg.

Just like the little boy who watched his most important brother fall in front of his eyes in the burning garbage mountain ten years ago, he was at a loss.

And the movement on Ace's side naturally attracted the attention of the entire battlefield.

Seeing the painful and helpless back of Ace hugging Angel and kneeling on the ground, everyone knew exactly what this meant.

The miracle did not happen, Angel was killed.

"Boom."

There was a crisp sound when the water pipe dropped to the ground, and Sabo turned his head in disbelief, looking at Ace who was kneeling on the ground and crying.

The desperation in those words was more powerful than any sword, gun and stick, and made Sabo feel a sharp pain in his heart.

"……is that a lie……"

Angel... is dead?

That... powerful... Angor who existed like a road sign for them... is dead?

"...Are you kidding me!"

Tears gathered in the bottom of his eyes and quickly broke the bank. Sabo wanted to rush back to Ace and Angor but was blocked by the navy.

"Didn't you agree to tell us your dream when we realize it!"

He shouted while blocking the attack of the navy.

"Isn't it too cunning to leave now!"

"fraud!"

At this time, most of the pirates were stunned for a moment, and the navy also took the opportunity to bypass them. Taking advantage of Ace's unpreparedness, they were ready to rush to take the head of Ace's head.

"Ace! Watch out!"

Someone yelled to remind him, but Ace was unmoved as if he didn't hear it.

At that moment, Ace's words came to Jinbe's mind.

""Jinbe, if there is no Angel in this world, it will not be attractive to me at all."』

"...Could it be..."

Is Angel really important to you to such an extent!Brother Ace!

At this time, Ace could no longer hear the information from outside, and he tremblingly looked at the unconscious Angel.

"...Are you angry because I didn't tell you who I like? I'm sorry, forgive me, okay? I'll tell you now, okay?"

"Angel..."

Angor closed his eyes and buried his head on Angor's neck, his nose was filled with the smell of Angor's blood.

He took a slow breath, and...

"The person I like is you!"

The voice was so loud that it resounded throughout the battlefield, as if it was going to reach heaven, calling back Angel's soul.

On the battlefield, except for a few insiders, everyone was stunned by this shocking news.

"Nani?!"

"Aren't they brothers!"

"I didn't expect such a relationship!"

"Ace...you..."

Sabo looked at Ace in surprise, even tears were blocked by the sudden news for a moment.

"You actually...have such feelings..."

Suddenly, Sabo felt that the pain he was feeling now was nothing more than a drop in the bucket to Ace.

Ace's pain and despair...Sabo can't imagine...

"...Angel! Don't you love Ace the most! Do you have the heart to see him suffering for you like this! Open your eyes! Respond to him!"

Sabo yelled.

"Angel!"

At this moment, the marines recovered from the shock just now, and began to slowly approach Ace again.

"Now! Go and take off the heads of those three brothers!"

"Ace!"

"Now is not the time to be sad Ace! Run!"

Suddenly, a loud voice echoed over the entire battlefield.

"Report to the Warring States Marshal! Angel's life card is still burning!"

"Nani?!"

Zhan Guo turned his head and looked at the man standing on the execution platform.

"...As expected of Angel's adjutant... Vance..."

While Vance over there said he was reporting to the Marshal of the Warring States Period, his eyes were always locked on Ace.

He knew that now Ace only needs one word to stand up again.

That is……

"Angel...is still alive!"

"... Angel... is still alive..."

Sure enough, Ace's eyes, who had blocked all outside information just now, were bright again.

He slowly lowered his head and put his ears on Angel's chest.

"……thump……"

Although it has been so weak that it can hardly be felt...but...

"...still alive..."

Why didn't I find out about such an important thing before!

In fact, it was because Ace had been yelling not to let Angor die before, but even he himself felt that Angor might die, but he didn't want to admit it.

Therefore, when Angor completely lost consciousness, Ace subconsciously believed that Angor was dead because there were no obvious signs of life.

... Anyway, it's good to be alive!

With tears in his eyes, Ace stood up with an excited smile on his face.

There is still a chance...Although about a minute was wasted, there is still a chance!

Stepping away from his limp legs, Ace once again walked towards hope. At this time, he was only a few tens of meters away from the warship in the harbor. The pirates on the warship were struggling to resist the navy who wanted to take back the warship. , the countless companions around him cheered up again, and caught up to stop the navy that almost rushed to Ace.

One step closer, one step closer!

However, after all, a navy broke through many difficulties and came behind Ace.

"Don't try to run!"

The navy is already close at hand, and it can be chopped with a brisk step and a knife.

At this time, Ace couldn't dodge a lot, he could only use his body to catch it.

I hope he won't be armed!

Just at this juncture...

"ROOM!"
