good brother

How fast is three years?

Fast-forward to Ace growing into a polite and gentle big brother.

Soon enough, Luffy can already use the signature eraser.

Soon, Angel has grown from a cute girl to a beautiful woman...

Don't think about it too much, it's just because Angel refused to cut his hair from Ace Luffy or Dadan, so he looked very much like a girl.

Cough, in short, it is 1513 in the sea calendar, Ace is 13 years old, and Luffy is 10 years old.

Angor was 16 years old when he was young (nv) preparing to go to sea.

The night before departure.

Ace stayed alone on the roof looking up at the stars and thinking about life.

Angor is leaving, going to a far, far place, and may not see him again in a few years.

How many years...

At present, the longest separation record between Ace and Angor should be half a month after Angor caught a cold.

Ace has always said that he has grown up and can be independent, but he is still at a loss when he thinks of Angel's departure.

After all, he is the one who has been taking care of him since he was born. The meaning of Angel to him may be far beyond what can be explained by just saying brother.

"It really is here."

A head popped up from the side of the roof, looking at Ace with a smile.

"Why don't you go back to sleep, Ace?"

Lightly flipping up to the roof, Angel lay directly beside Ace.

"Do you really want to go to sea now, Angel?"

Ace also lay down, and asked a little uneasy.

"Ah, since I don't have a lot of free time after becoming a navy, I want to travel around before that."

Angor turned to look at Ace and laughed skillfully.

"What? Can't leave my brother? If you beg me, maybe I will stay~"

"Who would beg you!"

Ace first yelled subconsciously to retort, and then turned into a tangled expression.

"It's just that I'm not used to it."

I'm not used to not seeing that familiar smile when I look back.

"Is there anything you're not used to? Luffy doesn't even have it."

"Angel's meaning to me is different from that to Luffy!"

"It's different there?"

"Ah."

Ace thought for a moment.

He was sure that Angel was definitely more than just his brother to him, but he couldn't tell what was different.

Helpless, he had no choice but to give the answer that felt closest.

"Angel is more like...mother to me?"

"……roll!"

Angel kicked Ace off the roof.

"Why is it mother!"

At least it's Oh Dou Sang!

...the point is there? !

Angel's face was a little reddish, probably on the verge of exploding.

"Because Angel has been taking care of our daily necessities."

Ace rubbed his bumped head, looked up at Angel, and said it as a matter of course.

"And it started when I was a baby. I really look like my mother."

Well, there's nothing wrong with it... ass! (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻

Angel pressed down the cross that was about to pop out, and tried his best to keep smiling.

"And Angel is also very pretty~"

Very good, don't hold back ^_^

"Ace~"

"Huh?" (˙▽˙)

"You die for me!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Early the next morning.

"Ace! What's wrong with you?!"

Luffy was surprised to see Ace with a bruised nose and swollen face.

"It's not swollen..."

Ace's heart was crying.

Why did you get beaten up for praising Angel's beauty?

Ace, a man cannot be described as beautiful...

"Yo, you guys got up pretty early."

Angel, who had already packed his things, entered the house from the outside.

"Let's go to the place where the boat is parked."

Watching Ace and Luffy walk out of the house, Angel looked at the Dadan family over there.

"Dadan, are you going?"

"Let's go!"

Those little thieves came out in a noisy file, leaving only Dadan sitting there smoking cigarettes one by one.

"I'm not going! It's too late for me to be happy that you bastard is gone!"

"Really~"

Naturally, Angel knew that Dadan, the arrogant old man, had a different heart, so he said goodbye with a smile.

"I'm leaving!"

some coast.

"See you after we go to sea! Ace! Luffy! Tell Dadan for me! I have troubled you these few years!"

"Oh!"

Luffy waved his hand cheerfully.

"Angel! I will definitely train hard!"

"I'll take good care of Luffy too! Don't worry!"

Ace crossed his hips, looking calmer than Luffy.

"Goodbye!"

Ace and Luffy watched the boat go further and further away until Angel disappeared on the other side of the horizon.

"Let's go."

"what."

Ace looked in the direction Angor left.

The person who took good care of him has already sailed alone.

From now on, it is true independence!

Just watch, Angel, when we meet again, I will definitely stand by your side!

Ace looked at it for a while before turning and walking back.

"Go back, we still have to train hard!"

"Ok!"

As for Dadan.

She sat cross-legged in the room alone, smoking a cigarette one mouthful at a time.

""The older one is Angel, an orphan, and he is three years old this year.""

It has been 13 years since that sentence.

"Boss, Angel has already left."

"Oh, really."

Da Dan replied coldly.

"He wants us to send you a message."

"Say 'I've troubled you for a few years.'"

"Ahhh! What are you talking about assholes! Smelly brat!"

The bandits around looked at their boss who suddenly pulled out a handkerchief and shrugged helplessly.

the other side.

Angor looked at the sunny blue sky and the vast sea, felt his excited heartbeat, and was full of hope for the future.

let's go!Go see the world!

The author has something to say:

Cough, the number of words is a bit short...

Well, this should be regarded as the existence of a wedge in this volume~

In other words, I really want to complain, Ace regards Angor as his mother, so he is not an Oedipus 2333

Well it was just a joke.

Ace still doesn't know what's different about Angel to him~

Well, let's wait for him to wake up XD
