good brother

The small cliff of Corbo Mountain is a good place, it is located in a remote place, facing the sea, and the scenery is pleasant, so the four little devils like to go there whenever they have something to do.

Go there when you are in a good mood, go there when you are not in a good mood, go there if you want to express your ideals, go there when you are bored.

This time, Sabo behaved strangely in the city, and Little Cliff was definitely the best choice to extract a confession.

"Speak!"

"Is there anything else to hide between us?"

Along the way, Ace had already explained the whole story to Angel, and Angel had heard it, and made a good guess.

Now, Angor looked at the corner of Ace's mouth twitching as he confidently forced a confession.

I don't know who has been hiding his life experience from now on...

"I……"

Sabo's expression was a bit tangled, but he still remembered Angel's evaluation of the nobles.

"Anyway, it's better to keep them away. 』

"Well, Sabo, how about you tell your secret, and Ace tell Ace's secret?"

Seeing Sabo's tangled look, Angel lured him a bit.

"Angel!"

Of course Ace knew what Angel was going to say, and immediately shouted to stop him.

"What? Which brat was the one who said there was no secret between us?"

Angel smiled and rubbed Ace's head.

"Calm down, you don't really care about saying it yourself, after all, it's Sabo and Luffy."

Ace pursed his lips.

To be honest, he really didn't worry that Sabo and Luffy would hate him because of his background, but his dislike of Roger had become instinctive.

I don't want to face it, I don't want to mention it.

"If you want to find the answer to that question, this is a hurdle that you absolutely cannot get around."

Angel nodded on Ace's forehead.

"...I know! Just say it!"

Ace stepped forward, stood in front of the curious Sabo and Luffy, turned his face away, not daring to meet those two pairs of dark eyes, and said in a low voice.

"I am... the son of the One Piece King."

"Eh--?!"

Ace screamed for granted, but Ace still didn't dare to look up.

Even if he has confidence in the people he approves, over the years, the strong negative reactions of those strangers have become a lingering nightmare in Ace's mind. disgust.

Besides Angel, these are the only two people he trusts, if they are lost...

Ace will break down.

But ~

"Isn't that amazing!!!"

A certain kid who dreams of becoming the One Piece is about to go to heaven.

In his opinion, One Piece is the most powerful person in the world, and the son of One Piece is also a very good person!

Sabo also showed surprise, but it was just surprise.

He seemed to suddenly understand the reason for Ace's abnormal behavior when he was five years old.

"It's really hard for you."

Sabo put his arms around Ace's neck with a smile, expressing comfort awkwardly.

He is not as indifferent to the outside world as Lu Fei is. He is very clear about what the world thinks of Roger, so he can naturally guess why Ace reacted in such a way.

Ace turned his head slowly, meeting the eyes of Sabo and Luffy.

There wasn't any emotion there other than some curiosity.

It's like the same reaction as when Ace picked up the mysterious treasure.

Ace smiled, and that smile was more relaxed than ever.

"Well, it's okay."

"Compared to yours, my life experience is simply scum."

Sabo looked at Ace, this time he really didn't struggle at all.

"I am a child of a nobleman."

Sabo looked expectantly at the other three, hoping to get a surprised reaction.

however……

"Nobility? What's that?"

Luffy shook Ace's arm and asked.

"……spread."

Ace looked up at Angel.

"Well, someone who has nothing to do with you."

"Oh."*2

"Bastard! At least be surprised!"

Sabo is already going to blow his hair.

Damn, he struggled for a few years about what to draw...orz

"and many more."

Ace suddenly realized something.

"Aren't nobles all very rich? The kind who want to do something?"

Ace asked suspiciously.

"Since you are the son of a nobleman, why did you come to Mount Corbo?"

Sabo was silent for a moment, leaning his head against the tree with his head down, the complicated emotions in his eyes were largely covered by the brim of his hat.

"They like 'someone' who can protect their 'status', 'property', not me."

Sabo's voice was flat, as if talking about a few strangers, not his biological parents.

"If I can't marry the daughter of the royal family, I will be useless. For this, I study non-stop every day, and my parents quarrel because of my poor grades. I am a superfluous existence in that family."

"I lied to you before, I'm sorry, but although my parents are still alive, I am indeed alone."

"Although the nobles despise the mountain of rubbish, compared to that suffocating "high town", compared to wasting the next few decades, the planned life is much better!"

"……I see."

Ace's expression was slightly surprised. After all, he had been to the city several times, but he didn't see the darkness hidden behind the prosperity.

"This is the world."

Angel folded his hands, leaned against the tree, and looked at the endless sea.

"Behind the light there must be a shadow. This is an absolutely unavoidable reality."

Ace and Luffy looked confused, but Sabo showed a thoughtful expression.

"However, I really don't want to care about these things anymore."

Sabo laughed suddenly, his eyes looking towards the sea sparkled.

"Ace, Luffy! We will go to sea one day! Leave this country! Go freely!"

"I want to see this vast world! And write a book to record it! Learning to sail is not painful at all for me!"

"Let's become stronger! Become real pirates!"

"whee."

Ace squinted his eyes with a rare smile. He walked to the edge of the cliff, holding the water pipe in one hand and akimbo in the other, and said loudly with his head held high.

"That's up to you! I will become a pirate one day! Then win and win! Invincible! Finally get the highest honor! Only this is the proof that I am alive!"

"Even if the whole world doesn't recognize me, I will become a great pirate! Let them impress them!"

"I will not escape! I will not lose to anyone! I will make my name synonymous with horror! Shock the whole world!"

Hearing the brave words of the brats, Angel felt that the blood flowing in his veins began to boil.

Sure enough, this is the world of One Piece!

"what about me!"

Luffy also took a few steps forward and shouted towards the sea.

"...I thought you were going to say something."

Ace looked at Luffy's smirking face speechlessly.

"Hahaha Luffy, you are so funny! I am looking forward to your future."

At this time, Ace saw Angel who had been silent for a long time.

"Angel, come too!"

Ace ran over and pulled Angel over. Luffy and Sabo saw each other and started to boo.

"What is Angel's dream?"

"Say, talk, talk~"

"I'm not quite a pirate, I'm different from you."

"The navy can also have dreams!"

"me……"

Angor was a little embarrassed.

He was not a very motivated person, if it wasn't for the accidental time travel, he would definitely enjoy his life of mediocrity.

This suddenly made him talk about a dream or something, but he really couldn't remember it.

Angel stroked his chin and thought for a while, then looked at the three little ghosts and smiled expectantly, then smiled faintly.

Slowly walked a few steps to the edge of the cliff, compared a trumpet with his hand, and for the first time in his life, he yelled out his dream loudly.

"I! I want to be the happiest person in this world!"

"hapiness?"

Ace and Luffy looked at each other, obviously not understanding what this dream meant.

Isn't Angor happy now?

"What a cunning answer..."

Sabo reacted quickly.

It's natural to be happy when your dream is fulfilled, so this answer is no different from saying nothing.

"Haha, is it~"

Angel is in a very comfortable mood now, looking at the three little ghosts with a smile in his eyes.

"But I'm just a person without ambition, so don't learn from me~"

"How can a person without ambition be so strong!"

Ace looked serious.

"Angel must have something he wants to do! Maybe you haven't realized it yet, but you definitely have a dream!"

Angel raised his eyebrows, looking at the kid who was preaching to him for the first time.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you actually started to teach your brother!"

Angel flicked Ace's forehead, and saw Ace showing a slightly aggrieved expression.

Is it really easier to say it?

"I know exactly what my dream is, but sorry, I can't tell you yet."

"Eh? Why!"

Luffy was the first to express dissatisfaction.

"We all spoke out, only Angel didn't say it was unfair!" (`Δ)ゞ

"Nothing unfair! I'm much bigger than you think! Little idiot!"

"Then when can you tell us?"

Ace looked at Angor and Luffy who were already fighting over there, and asked.

"when……"

Angor grabbed Luffy, held him in his arms, and started tickling him.

"When all your dreams come true~"

"Wouldn't it be more than ten years..."

Ace was a little lost, but listening to Luffy's non-stop giggling over there, he really didn't have that depressed atmosphere.

"The so-called fools are blessed with fools."

Sabo smiled and pushed Ace with his elbow.

"Don't think too much about it, Angel must have his reasons."

Ace curled his lips in displeasure, but he was no longer obsessed with Angel's dream.

"Speaking of..."

Angor helped Luffy, who was already out of breath from laughing, let him breathe.

"All three of you want to be captains."

Angel said with a smile, he is not worried about this problem at all, but after all, there is an extra existence like Sabo, it seems very suitable to be a navigator, maybe it can be with Ace, it is better to mention it .

Yes, Angel still thought that Sabo was an extra character because of his Butterfly Effect!

I can't afford not to watch the plot. (*≧▽≦)ツ┻━┻[Turn the table and laugh]

"Yes, it is indeed a bit troublesome..."

Sabo frowned.

"I really didn't expect this. I thought Sabo would definitely become my navigator."

Ace looked at Sabo, frowning slightly.

"You all get on my boat!"

Luffy sat in Angor's arms, raised his hands, and said with a smile.

"Shut up, you little idiot."

Angor rubbed Luffy's head helplessly.

Ace stroked his chin in silence for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Angel, I have an idea, come here."

As he spoke, Angel was dragged away by Ace, leaving Sabo and Luffy staring at each other.

10 minutes later

Sabo and Luffy, who were boringly practicing fighting skills, waited until Ace.

"Huh? Where's Angel?"

Sabo looked behind Ace, but he didn't see a familiar figure.

"Ah, I asked him to prepare something, compared to this..."

Ace's smiling eyes sparkled with excitement.

"We need to find a stake first!"

"Pile?"*2

Another 10 minutes later.

"Yosie, that's all."

Ace looked at the big stake in front of him with his hips crossed in satisfaction, while Sabo Luffy behind him was still in a daze.

"Ace, what are you doing?"

"I'll tell you when Angel brings the things."

"Hey--!"

"coming!"

Ace looked expectantly at Angel who flew over.

"Here, what you want."

Angel handed Ace a net bag and a bottle of wine.

"Ah, you stole Dadan's wine."

Luffy looked at the familiar wine bottle and said.

Ace took the net bag and placed the four small red dishes inside on the stake.

"Let's talk about the future, maybe we will go to sea separately."

"do you know?"

Ace looked at the three of them with twinkling eyes, and pulled out the cork of the wine bottle at once.

"After drinking this glass of wine, you can become brothers!"

The clear liquor slowly filled the four crimson wine saucers, glistening in the sunlight filtering through the leaves.

"Brother? Really!"

Luffy's eyes also brightened up, obviously looking forward to the family affection.

Sabo also looked at the four glasses of wine with a smile. He just confessed his life experience and was about to get the family he yearned for.

Angel knew about Ace's plan in advance, but he tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart.

I, finally, can truly become the elder brother of the three of them!

Finally something you can call family all exists!

"Maybe we become pirates not just as companions on a ship, but Angel wants to become a navy."

"But we are now 'brothers'."

"No matter where we are or what we are doing in the future, this relationship will never be severed!"

"From today onwards we are..."

"Brother!"

"Oh!"*3

The wine glasses splashed and splashed reflected the sunlight, and the four brothers laughed and drank the spicy wine. The new bond tightly connected the four independent individuals together.

Even if you die, you can't cut it off!

This is it, brother!

The author has something to say:

Four thousand words!

Come and praise me!

What would your reaction be if I said that this is the combination of two chapters today and tomorrow and there is no update tomorrow? (￣y▽￣)~* covering mouth and laughing

There was originally a small theater in the last chapter, but I don’t know why it didn’t appear, so I’ll make it up here~

many years later~

Ace: I think Angel will definitely have a bright future if he becomes an actor!His acting skills are simply unbelievable!

Sabo: Right!I think so!And I think Angel would definitely become popular if he reversed the women's clothes!There is really no sense of disobedience!

Ace: It must be more promising than being in the navy, and you can earn a lot of money! 【Resentment】

Luffy: Can you make a lot of money?So can you invite me to eat all the meat I can eat? (.?﹃?.)

Sabo: Haha, absolutely no problem!Top notch meat!Eat as much as you want!After all, Angel is a beauty!

Ace: Sabo, do you feel a murderous aura?

Sabo: ...you said that...

Luffy: Yo~ Angel~ When did you come?

Ace & Sabo: Σ(°△°|||)︴......Sorry! ! !

Angel: ^_^ Feather Blade Storm! ! !
