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

As soon as the Dressrosa matter was settled, Ace and I did not stay, but left Dressrosa immediately.

General Fujitora also opened one eye and closed one eye...ah no, he closed his eyes and pretended not to see it.

After all, now that the chaos is like this, it is the best time to leave.If it is delayed any longer, it will become a battlefield.Especially this time the matter is so big, Fujitora informed the Navy headquarters that there might be a new admiral coming.

I'm not worried that Ace and I can't beat this group of navies together, it's just that things will be troublesome...and we have more important things to do now-go after the fourth ship that I let go before.

"Brother Luffy and the others are still on Dressrosa... shouldn't it matter?" I became a little worried after leaving Dressrosa, "Their injuries should be quite serious, and they probably need to rest for a while Only then can he recover... By the way, how is Luo's injury?"

"It's serious, but it shouldn't be life-threatening."

I breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

"You know him very well?" Ace, who was driving the boat forward, looked back at me with a smile on his face, "When did your relationship become so good?"

"..." My forehead started to sweat.

This, this... Although there is nothing wrong with Ace's expression, but because of my guilty conscience, I always feel that there is something in the other person's words... wrong!Why am I guilty!I didn't do anything weird!

"Because Luo did me a favor before." I hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the other party, "He helped me cure brother Weasel's incurable disease, and I owe him a favor so I agreed to do him a favor."

"It's like this..." Ace turned his head back, his voice sounded the same as usual, "Is this what happened in Dressrosa?"

"No." I waved my hand with a smile in my voice, "If it was Dressrosa, I would have dealt with Doflamingo by myself!"

"what is that?"

"...I can't say it yet." I showed a serious expression—bad, it seems that I have dug a hole for myself.

"Hey - can't even I say it?"

"Well... because I promised the other party, I can't break my promise." I thought about quickly changing the subject, and immediately asked, "By the way, Ace, what's going on with Sabo?"

Although I knew that Ace had a brother who he thought was dead...but the atmosphere was too heavy that night, and we were not very familiar at the time, so I didn't dare to ask.

It's different now.Not only is the relationship different, the brother is also resurrected.But it's unscientific to have no news for so many years...

"Sabo..." Ace's voice was a little nostalgic, and then he began to tell me the specifics of what happened.

And I finally understood why Sabo hadn't heard from him for so many years - because he was rescued by the revolutionary dragon after going out to sea, but he lost his memory...

Never thought that such bloody tricks could exist in this world!And Revolutionary Dragon is Luffy's real father, right?Why don't you tell Lu Fei like this... Forget it, I guess the three brothers didn't tell this father about their sworn brothers.

However, the fact that Sabo was an aristocrat before did not surprise me. After all, when I saw him, I felt that the other party was different.

I mean wear.

In this world, there are really very few people who dress so formally and normally.It's like after I protested that Ace was naked from the upper body, he just put on a short-sleeved shirt and still didn't button it at all.

But since we talked about their childhood, I couldn't help but be a little curious: "Ace, what were you like when you were young?"

Ace thought for a while, and answered me, "Hmm...the character is a bit distorted."

"..." To actually say that himself... That should be really a bit distorted.But this way, it made me a little curious, I really want to see what it looks like.

"Ah, yes, Chisaki."

"Ok?"

Ace mentioned seemingly unintentionally: "Why did Doflamingo ask you to choose between me and Luo?"

"..." My mother should have walked over there after Luffy defeated Doflamingo!I laughed dryly a few times, and said in a great tone, "I don't know why he misunderstood this matter, it's so strange."

"Luo also said it was a misunderstanding...but he mentioned the deal with you." Ace turned to look at me, "What kind of deal is it?"

"..." Trafalgar Law!You actually betrayed me!Our friendship is at stake! ——I made a judgment in my heart, and my face was still serious, "Luo said our deal?"

"Well, when Doflamingo asked him why he trusted you so much, and what kind of chips he got, he said that he had a deal with you enough to trust you."

...I should have kicked Doflamingo a few times before drawing a turkey on his forehead with a marker and leaving! ——I thought indignantly, swallowed my saliva, and didn't know whether I should say it or not.

After all, I can't lie to Ace. If I want to say something, I must tell the truth.

What you said...will Ace be angry?

Ah, when I think about it carefully, I don't seem to have seen Ace get angry with me... Oops, why do I still want to see it when I think about it...

I struggled for a long time between telling the whole story and playing haha ​​to perfunctory, and finally decided to give it a try.

"This deal is... Ace, you know Luo's ability, right?" I carefully stared at Ace's face, "The premise of our deal is... exchanged hearts."

After hearing this, the other party seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and then turned his head back again.

I looked at the back of the other person's head, couldn't see the expression and didn't know what the other person meant, so I decided to explain it first.

"Because we didn't trust each other at the time, but Brother Itachi's illness was very urgent and needed to be treated, so I begged him... Actually, I didn't trust him so generously, in terms of my ability Even if something happens to my heart, I will be fine, it just hurts more!"

Ace suddenly said, "What about now?"

"Hey? Now?" I was stunned for a moment and realized, "Of course it's back now! Although our deal is still there, we are already friends and we can trust each other! There is no need to take each other's heart for insurance! "

After I finished speaking, I waited, but Ace didn't make a sound.I felt even more panicked, and timidly said: "This, this matter was... a transaction from the beginning! A simple transaction! Because I am afraid that you will worry, so I, you, don't get me wrong..."

Ace interrupted me aloud: "Well, there's no misunderstanding."

……Hey?

After hearing Ace's words, I actually... don't feel happy at all.

Although it is good to trust me, it is obviously different this time, right?

Why is there no reaction at all... Doesn't it seem like you don't care what I do at all...

And...Obviously Luffy thought Ace would be angry.

This person...couldn't be...

"Ace." I yelled, "Are you going to be angry?"

"Huh? No way."

...that's the problem!You don't get angry at all, it seems you don't care!

Damn, if I knew that when Doflamingo asked me to choose one of the two, I would choose Luo and give it a try.

But you can continue to try now...

I frowned, and started to break the news myself: "The deal between me and Luo was almost a year ago..."

"Ah."

"We haven't met halfway... that is, when I went to Punk Hazard last week, I stayed with him for about five or six days."

After I finished speaking, I waited for a while, but the other party still didn't respond, and seemed to be in a hurry, the speed of the boat became faster.

After I silently said "I'm sorry Luo, but you plotted against me first", in order not to let my voice be overwhelmed by the sound of the ship's driving, I said loudly: "But apart from other things, I I really like Luo——!"

"Yeah, got it." With his back to me, Ace sounded the same as usual.

...The problem is that after you know it!There is no reaction at all. Doesn't it seem like I'm the only one here making trouble for no reason?

Ah—what's going on—even though no one is around, I still feel so ashamed...

The thought that popped up before became more certain at this time——Ace, he...couldn't, he doesn't actually like me, right?

Thinking about it this way, it's actually... At the very beginning, the other party didn't even think about me, it was because of my speech that...

Speaking of which, his proposal is also... Is it because I said something like that that I let him have a follow-up choice?

Although after I realized my intentions at the beginning, I just thought about not getting too deep into it and cheating first... But in general, this is not fair to Ace, right?

And suddenly felt... very boring.

I sighed, don't say anything and continue to act stupid, in case the other party has someone he likes in the future, he will tie him up in various ways. The possibility of this option jumped back and forth for a while, and finally chose the third option.

"Ace, I was thinking..." I stared at his back and said slowly, "Why don't we call off the wedding."

That's what it says...but I swear, if Ace said yes right away, I'd kick him off the boat right away.

At least I have to reject it two or three times... No, maybe five or six times, so that I can get a little psychological balance.

Ace didn't respond for a long time. I waited and waited, suspecting that the other party hadn't heard it. When I was thinking about whether to repeat it, the boat stopped suddenly, and my body swayed due to inertia, and I almost couldn't sit still.

The other person turned around, with a face I had never seen before... no smile, and an expression of obvious anger in his eyes.

"Can you say that again?"

I froze there.

……Huh?Ace... is he angry?

The author has something to say:

Xiaoqian (sniffing): I am patient and set you free

The real Ace who has been patient: ...? ? ?

Because I didn't see the danger warning strip, I was marching on the edge of danger.jpg

Do you know why I said that JJ limited my ability? (grief and indignation)
