good brother

10 minute later.

"is that a lie……"

The members of the Spades Pirates looked at the two fighting in front of them in disbelief.

No, this cannot be called a fight.

It should be said to be... a guiding battle.

Because Angor's strength is overwhelming.

Every time, before Ace had attacked, Angor had already avoided it, but his attack always appeared accurately in the direction of Ace's travel.

And I don't know why, Ace, who can obviously be elemental, will be attacked by Angel.

Compared with the bystanders, Ace was even more shocked.

Why does the gap in strength become larger...

I must have worked so hard!Even ate a natural devil fruit!

but why!Now I can't even touch a single hair of Angel!

This gap almost made Ace feel desperate.

Do I really... have a chance to protect Angel...

Gradually, Ace's attacks slowed down and were not as powerful as before.

Angel noticed the change in Ace, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he stopped attacking.

"What about Ace? How do you feel?"

"...I...too weak!"

Ace pursed his lips, his eyes full of resignation.

"Yes, you are too weak."

Angel continued to hit Ace mercilessly, and even the members of the Spades were a little bit annoyed.

"Ace, where do you think this is?"

"This is a great route!"

"The powerhouses from all over the world gather here, and people with devil fruit abilities emerge in endlessly."

"You don't have the capital to be proud yet, Ace."

Ace was taken aback by this sentence, and looked up at Angel with a serious expression.

Indeed, Ace is indeed proud.

So proud that he dared to swagger and show off his strength to the world.

However, in the eyes of the real strong, this kind of behavior is like a clown.

Ace is still too young.

Whether it is Ace now or Luffy who just went to sea in the future, it has been too long since he has experienced strong winds and waves.

He thought he was strong enough, but when he really realized his weakness, he had already lost something irreparable.

Ace was lucky, the first fiasco should be the one he lost to Whitebeard.

He didn't pay any price, and even gained precious family affection.

So the second time, he lost his whole life.

Therefore, it is better to wake him up earlier.

Tell him early on how big the world is and how vast the ocean is.

In this way, Ace will calm down and grow up step by step.

"Ace, now you have realized your weakness."

Angel patted Ace on the head, making him look straight into his eyes.

"Then tell me, what's next?"

"Of course it's getting stronger!"

The corner of Ace's mouth finally raised again.

Confident and dazzling.

"Sooner or later I will stand in front of you! Angel!"

"I'm waiting for that day."

Angel patted Ace's head, and looked at the warship that had come into sight opposite him.

"Sarah, I should go back too."

"Eh? Are you leaving already?"

Ace said in surprise.

"Stay for another two days!"

Spades: Mmmmm!Please be sure to stay a few more days and take good care of the captain!

"It won't work recently, I have to go back and report to the mission."

Angel put the orange leather cowboy hat on Ace's back on his head.

"Do you think navy is as easy as pirates, bastard!"

Spades: I almost forgot that you are a navy...

"Then it would be great if Angel joined us!"

"no!"

Angel nodded on Ace's forehead.

"I joined the navy with my own purpose, you will understand after saying it a few times..."

Suddenly, Angel was stunned for a moment, and a gratified smile appeared in his eyes.

"It's already taller than me, Ace."

It has been 17 years since I was a baby who was not yet full moon, and now I am a big boy full of masculinity.

Angel stepped forward and gave Ace a hug.

"I can already go to sea alone and find my own partner."

You don't need me anymore...

"Ah, I've grown up."

Ace closed his eyes, enjoying the warm embrace after four years.

"Although I can't protect you yet, I don't need you to protect me anymore."

"I can already fight alone."

"However, you will always be my only brother and the most important family member!"

"...You've really grown up, Ace."

Angel also closed his eyes.

Now, Ace's shoulders are broader than his.

The temperature of the flame, through the thin fabric, warmed Angel's heart.

"I didn't expect your emotional intelligence to increase."

"Huh? What EQ?"

"..."

Angel let go of his arms and looked at Ace with contempt.

"You really ruin the atmosphere..."

After speaking, Angel called out his wings and flew into the sky.

"Take your own risk. Although the ability of the natural department is not invincible, it is enough to deal with the miscellaneous fish in the first half of the great route. Be careful and there will be no problem!"

"I will find a way to ask for leave, and then I will find you!"

"Come on! Ace!"

"Okay! Goodbye then! Angel!"

Ace waved his hands until Angel turned into a small black dot on the horizon and boarded the distant warship.

"You really have a good brother."

Navigator walked up to Ace and patted him on the shoulder.

"Of course!"

Ace stared at the endless sky with sparkling eyes.

"That's my angel!"

With that, Ace turned and walked into the jungle.

"I'm going to train!"

Must become stronger!

Stronger, stronger!

Angel is under my protection!

The reunion did not come too late.

Six months later, the new world.

"That's... Angel! Hey! Ace! Your brother is here!"

"Angel!"

Ace rushed to the bow in a few steps.

"Hey! Angel!"

"Yo, Ace, long time no see."

Angel waved his wings and landed on Ace's boat.

"How is it! Are you on leave!"

Ace looked at Angel very expectantly.

"Please come, please come, but there is only one month, and..."

Angel took out a letter from his pocket.

"There is one more task."

"what is this?"

Ace opened the letter, and Spade's crew came over.

then……

"Hey——!!! Seven Wuhai?!"

"You are also a big pirate now, and there is a reward of 2000 million for Fire Fist Sang."

Angel smiled and patted Ace on the shoulder.

"You've worked hard, too. I heard from the Navy's report that you've developed many powerful moves."

"Well! This battle will not be one-sided!"

"Okay, I will learn it well when I get to the next island, now you just need to give me an answer."

Angel pointed to the letter in Ace's hand.

"This Shichibukai, are you right?"

"Humph."

Ace smiled flamboyantly, and the letter in his hand burned to ashes.

"I am not interested!"

"really."

Angor shrugged indifferently.

"Although we have known the result for a long time, we still have to go through the motions."

After speaking, Angel took off his navy coat.

"Then, I'll be on vacation from now on, and I'll be with you for the time being. I don't mind."

"of course not!"

Ace laughed and threw Angor to the ground in excitement.

"Hahaha, I'm so happy! I haven't been with Angel for a long time!"

"Hey, you are so heavy! Get up!"

Spades: ... Should we avoid it for a while?
