If I don't change my career, I will be forced to become the Fourth Emperor

Why on earth are you so worried about me——

Portgas D. Ace.

Gol D. Roger.

...I really just said that because I think the middle name D is relatively rare!And it just so happens that Ace's younger brother Monkey D. Luffy also has a D in the middle!

But... I remember that after the navy arrested Roger, they searched strictly. If Roger had blood, he would definitely be taken away.

According to the pissing nature of the world government, killing people to silence them is a bad idea. It is very likely that a child who was brainwashed from an early age to be loyal to the government...Huh?etc?Considering Ace's age...is he a posthumous child?

Does the upper navy know this?Logically speaking, even if you didn't know it at the beginning, you should know it later...Huh?No, in terms of age...

"What's going on? Why do you show such an expression." Ace smiled, "It doesn't feel like you."

"It's not... that... because you... that's the one..." I stuttered a little, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Now we're out drinking.

There's nothing wrong with that, as soon as I suggested we go for a drink, the guy immediately went "Oh~ go go go" and followed.

It's just... Now that I'm outside, it's impossible to ask for details, right?

Speaking of it, I really have a lot of confusion...but it's not easy to ask at this time.

After thinking for a while, I opened my hands and asked with some hesitation, "Do you want a hug?"

"Ok?"

"How should I put it..." I thought for a while, and added, "When I was young, whenever I cried, my brother would give me a loving hug, and then I would feel better. I always I think you probably need to…”

"I'm fine! Is this a trick to lie to children?" Ace laughed, "And we've hugged many times, right?"

"Hey! Don't say that kind of misleading words!" I can feel the strange eyes from other people in the store.

"Huh? Are you angry again?"

"Why did you say again! And at this time you should reflect on yourself!" I pounded the table angrily, and then considering the purpose of coming out this time, I changed it to suppressing my anger and pounding the table in a small way.

"Hahahaha, although I don't quite understand it, it should be my fault, okay, okay, don't be so angry."

...This was originally your fault, damn it!

Forget it, since you let me know a big secret tonight, I forgive you.

"By the way, Ace, what about that tattoo on your arm?" After the atmosphere became harmonious, I felt relieved, saw the writing on the other's arm, and asked with a bit of gossip, "You Your name is ACE, but your tattoo is ASCE, and the S is crossed, it must have a special commemorative meaning!"

There is a guess in my gossip heart, and the fire of gossip is burning - maybe it's an ex-girlfriend!

I know, I also read a lot of gossip when I was a child, usually because of emotional disputes!On the spur of the moment, they merged the names of the two, and then removed the other's name after the quarrel, like Tom Cross and the like.

And emotional gossip is the best spice!In this way, the previous heavy atmosphere will be swept away...

Ace froze for a moment, then smiled: "This... is to commemorate one of my dead brothers."

"...Drink! Let's drink! If you don't get drunk today, you won't go home!" I said loudly, handing over the glass and clinking it heavily.

I decided not to speak!In short, just get the other party drunk!I just keep myself from getting drunk!

At this time, I tried to get away with drinking, but I had no experience of being drunk. I didn't know that I was drunk if I was consciously drunk.

Then, I have to formalize an objective fact - in the desert, it is very cold at night.

But it doesn't matter, because after tonight, these two points will be deeply imprinted in my memory.

Because waking up the next day...

"...Yes, it's about last night, yes, I'm sorry." After quickly withdrawing my hands and feet and waking him up, I apologized, with a bit of remorse, guilt, and sleepiness on my face. Qi deficiency caused by headache after drunk, "Because, because you are really too warm!"

I remember I was conscious!Just didn't think much about it!Don't blame me!I didn't expect that I would act on instinct when I was drunk!And it just happened that I recognized Ace as my companion. He was not angry and had no evil thoughts, so he decided that the other party was safe!

...Wait, think about it carefully, what I did last night was simply treating the other party as a non-living pillow, right?

Ace's eyes were sleepy, and he seemed to wake up after blinking, but his face was just confused: "It's Chisaki... what was last night?"

……Huh?This person doesn't seem to realize that it's my problem!

This is really... great!

I immediately became confident: "I should ask you this!"

"……Um?"

"Don't worry about it, get up quickly and let's go eat!" I pulled him up and pushed him out, "I have an intuition as an illusionist, your brother should show up today!"

As soon as he mentioned his younger brother, the younger brother's attention was immediately successfully diverted.

When the other party was eating, of course I was running outside to continue looking for suitable gifts.

"Hmm... Will Jotaro like this fishbone keychain? He is only 16 years old this year. Although he looks like a hardboy, he is still a child after all..." Halfway through my selection, the phone bug in my backpack rang.

I immediately took it out and went to a small corner to pick it up: "Hello?"

【Hey, idiot, where are you now? 】

"Akiko...You can call me a little idiot, a little bastard or whatever...Idiot sounds really stupid, so let's go. After all, I will be everyone's captain in the future!"

[Okay, little idiot. ] Akiko changed immediately, 【Where are you now? 】

Hearing the other party's tone seemed to be a little anxious, I blinked and didn't continue to dwell on this point: "I'm in the port capital of Alabasta now, is there anything important?"

【um, yes. ] Akiko's tone revealed a bit of anxiety, 【Archer ran away. 】

"...What is going on with this unreliable man! You must have someone by your side! Didn't you agree that he would be the mother of all of us! Tell me, which wild woman seduced him away! I can bear it!" I said sadly.

【……no. 】

I was shocked: "Could it be some wild man!?"

I knew that the friendship of men in this world is greater than the sky!Never thought that Archer was assimilated too!

【It's nothing, don't play tricks!And you don't have to worry about me... After Itachi came back to me from Sky Island, Archer just passed by... He said before that he wanted to leave to do something and come back soon...] Akiko's voice sounded a little helpless, I think that if Archer is in front of her, she will definitely scold her, [I saw that before he left, he was reading a newspaper with news of the rebellion in Alabasta. 】

My expression became serious, and my tone became low: "Is this the case... Is the news confirmed? Is there no other news in the newspaper?"

[The other one is that someone is asking for marriage, I don't think Archer is interested in that. 】

Me: "..." Indeed.

"I see." I thought for a while and made up my mind, "Don't worry, Akiko."

After I made a decision, my first reaction was to go to Ace.

But this time I didn't catch him in the restaurant like before, and I knew what happened when the restaurant was destroyed, so I had to find where the crowd commotion was most obvious.

when you find it...

"Chisaki, you came so slowly! I almost missed this scene! The enemy is a little stronger this time!" Ace turned around and waved to me, smiling happily there.

It was Captain Smoker, his enemy, who was opposite him, obviously looking very angry.

...Well, I know, it is indeed a strong enemy, so please watch the battle ahead!

Thinking about it this way, after seeing the move between Ace and Smoker, I still instinctively... gave the score card.

"61 points!" I also conjured up sunglasses, put them on, and helped them up.

Ace: "Tsk."

Smoker: "...look at that sign...you belong to the Whitebeard Pirates too!"

"Yes, but don't pay attention to me! I'm just running away... No, I'm just a simple scorer!" I said, conjuring up two bouquets and waving them as cheerleaders, "Ace—come on ——!”

Then, Colonel Smoker, in a rage, went from chasing one pirate to chasing two.

When Ace led me to run quickly, I also learned a piece of news from him.

"Hey—you really met your brother?"

"Yeah! He seems to be the captain himself now, and it looks like he has a good crew to take care of him. We didn't have time just now, so we will catch up now." Ace picked me up with one hand and his hat with the other, and then he was in the port. He jumped onto the ship with a big jump, and set off a fire to cut off the advance of the navy, "Huh—so dangerous! But the score just now exceeded 60 points for the first time."

"...Well, yes. So I have passed." I crossed my arms and said with a blank expression on my face, "Although I still think your weakness is obvious, I also agree that you are indeed quite strong. So... I I won't stop you from going."

Ace froze for a moment, then laughed, and leaned over to pat my head vigorously: "Is this the right way—"

"Ahhhh - don't mess with my hairdo!"

"Then what are your plans in the future? It won't work to let you go back to the port, Smoker is over there... Ah yes." Ace looked at me, and suddenly suggested, "Why don't you sit on my brother's car?" Does the ship leave?"

"Hey? Is it okay?"

"I'll ask."

While we were talking, the boat was already approaching a big ship, and it looked like the boat of Ace's brother Monkey D. Luffy.

He directly asked me to wait for him, and then left me to jump on the boat.

After I finished counting the things in my backpack there, Ace jumped down again and jumped up with me in his arms.

"I made an agreement with Luffy, they will take you to the next city and you can move freely." The other party said directly after I stood still.

I stared at him, feeling a little uncomfortable: "Why do you look so happy? Are you so happy without taking me?"

"I didn't say that. It's even more wrong to have a sad face at this time, isn't it?"

There was a hint of helplessness in the tone of the other party's speech, and I suddenly felt a little sad, and said sadly: "I really miss you."

I say this from the bottom of my heart.

After all...Among the people in this world, apart from Dad, Ace is the first person I have met who is not angry and tolerates me regardless of my willfulness.

Although Akiko said before that I was taking advantage of this kind of behavior, I don't think I'm just discovering the truth in the world!

But why do I always feel like I hear gasps after I say this?

I turned my head and saw a group of people with different expressions... The boy with the straw hat is Luffy's brother, right?

"It's like this..." Ace was thoughtful, and then suddenly reached out to Luffy, "Luffy, give me the life card I just gave you."

"Huh? This one?"

"Yes, this is it." Ace took it, tore the white paper in half, returned half to Luffy, and stuffed the other into my hand.

I was still in a daze, but the other party had already jumped off the big boat and returned to his own small boat.

"I'll come back to you after I've dealt with Blackbeard. Let's go to sea together!" The young man shouted while waving at me while talking.

When I came back to my senses, I completely forgot what I wanted to say, and my first reaction was to yell at people: "Idiot! You can't say something like flag!"

Ace wasn't angry when he heard me say that, instead he laughed out loud, even his voice was smiling, and shouted at me: "Why are you so worried about me—"

"..." I was silent for a while, and then replied loudly, "Then you don't always do things that worry me—"

This time Ace did not answer, but drove the boat away, leaving only one sentence: "Wait for me to pick you up! Or you can come to me again!"

...This bastard, I took his life card and he didn't take mine!The result must be to ask me to find him!

Brat, you are playing with fire, you know that? !

The author has something to say:

Good Ace is temporarily offline.

This couple is really amazing... It's obvious that no one has that kind of thought, and I really didn't deliberately write it, but it was written like a young couple... I was stunned on Lu Feizhou. Everyone except Luffy.jpg

There are two important foreshadowings that will appear later in this chapter... Forget it, anyway, you don’t know what it is, so don’t guess (.

Next is the story of the crew~!Everyone on the crew is a line of friendship and family, and there will not be any other CPs except Urahara Yoichi, who is locked in the original work.
