[One Piece] Brother Ace, please pay the bill

~~~~~ While there is still fire, hurry up and eat some fish~~~~~

Mandala remembered that Ace met Jinbe before he went to meet Whitebeard, and in order to prevent Ace from challenging Whitebeard, Jinbe fought him for five days and five nights.But this time the duel was not decided, but was interrupted by Whitebeard.And Ace, who was defeated by Whitebeard, was taken captive by him to the Whitebeard Pirates.

All these plots are developing smoothly, and Mandala can just watch the play on the sidelines.Knowing that he would have to stay up for five days and five nights, he brought some potatoes and cheese from the warehouse, so as not to have to go back to the ship to get them when he was hungry.

The main fighters of the Spades Pirates all followed Ace towards the island, leaving only some low-level sailors on board.Taking advantage of this opportunity, you can also repair the ship and replenish supplies.

Mandala left Vick on the white sailboat. She was not very interested in fighting, so she simply let her continue to sleep.As for the siren, she has always been inseparable from her, so she followed.

Instead of following Ace, Mandala walked at the end of the line, and kept a considerable distance from the end of the line.

"Siren, if there are any changes later, remember to tell me." Mandala is still afraid that his appearance will bring a butterfly effect to the world, just like Ace's departure to sea half a year earlier.If something unexpected happens that doesn't fit the plot, she will be able to deal with it.

"No problem, Manman." The siren nodded, and she looked at the sea in the distance, where it was as calm as a mirror, and there was no sign of any storm coming.

Ace, who was walking in the front, looked back at Mandala, and saw that she was pulling the siren leisurely, as if on a spring outing.Stopping, Ace turned around and walked towards Mandala.

To be honest, Ace is still a little uneasy about challenging Whitebeard's decision.Although when going out to sea, Luffy made a promise that he would continue to challenge the strong and win battles until he got the highest reputation, but all of this seemed to be a little shaken when he accepted the sailboat of Mandala. .

Of course, Ace still wants to swim in this sea, taking risks and defeating the strong.But now there is something more in this belief. He wants Mandala to stand by his side, fight with him, and climb to the peak sea together.Instead of being alone, become the One Piece who went to the guillotine by himself.

Roger's ending couldn't be more ideal for other hot-blooded men.But Ace felt that he was despicable, because he was his son, the son he had abandoned.

Not only that, he also abandoned his mother.He had to bear half of the responsibility for Lu Jiu's death, while Ace consciously kept the other half in his heart.

"Mandala, I have something to tell you." Ace's face was quite tangled, which was different from his usual cheerfulness.Even the freckles on his cheeks looked awkward.

"Well, good." Seeing him like this, Mandala probably guessed what he wanted to say.He raised his hand and touched Siren's head, "Siren, go to the front of the team and lead the way. Just keep walking towards the high place."

"Yes." Siren giggled and ran away.Although she is still young, she has been around the two of them for a long time, and she can somewhat feel what is going on with the ambiguous atmosphere.

"What's the matter, do you want to hand over the fleet to me before the defeat?" Mandala knew the result of this battle, she smiled quite easily.

"No." Ace didn't smile, his face was drawn a little longer, and he looked very serious, "If White Beard is better than me, I lose, and I will be convinced. He has no objection to how he will deal with me. But you No, I don't want you to go on another pirate ship. You..., you so..., those men..."

"What about me?" Mandala blinked deliberately, pretending to understand nothing.

Drifting on the sea all year round, it takes weeks or even months to see the islands, and there are not necessarily people on those islands.How lonely and unbearable these nights are for men, Ace can feel it from the crew of his own ship.In his pirate group, strength is important, but if anyone has evil thoughts about the three Mandala, he will mercilessly drive them off the ship.

Ace grabbed the hair above the back of his head, turned his face away, and muttered softly, "You can see it by yourself in the mirror."

"Where is there a mirror?" Mandala laughed, and she took Ace's arm directly, "Is it so difficult to praise me for being beautiful?"

"I'd rather praise you for cutting people neatly, killing people with knives..." Ace seemed to be used to such intimate actions of Mandala. bag.

"You praise me so much, do you want me to stab you with a sword?" Mandala grasped the hilt of Nereus' sword at his waist.This guy is not stupid or shy at all, his brain must have been burnt out by that devil fruit.

"If you can get in my way, come here." Ace laughed, he let go of his hand, and ran away.

"Hey!" Mandala didn't want to play the stupid game of "you come and chase me" with him in front of everyone, she rolled her eyes, and slowly followed behind the team.

"Portgas D. Ace?"

Before Ace ran two steps, a huge murloc appeared in front of the team.He called Ace's name, folded his hands on his chest, and swept the line firmly with his eyes.

"Your Majesty Shichibukai, the head of the Murloc Pirates, Jinpei." The Murloc didn't hide his identity at all, and reported all his wealth.

"Are you here to fight with me?" Ace raised the corners of his mouth and smiled with fighting spirit, "It's a pity, you're going to be behind Whitebeard."

"I'm here to dissuade you from challenging Whitebeard." Jinbe opened his mouth and said, the two huge teeth on his lower jaw looked very conspicuous.

"Why?" Ace frowned, and looked at him with some contempt, "Since you are the king of Qibuhai, why did you come to stop us pirates from fighting. Seeing the four emperors being defeated, you should know Profit is right."

"Whitebeard is kind to me, and he is kind to Fishman Island. I can't ignore it." Jinbe is not angry at Ace's arrogant attitude. He has seen too much of this kind of supercilious young man.Besides, Ace is also qualified to pull it up.If Ace had agreed to the invitation of the Navy Shichibukai early in the morning, he would be a pirate with the same status as himself, "Besides, your father wouldn't want to see you and..."

"That's enough, why talk so much nonsense if you want to fight!" Mentioning Roger, Ace instantly became angry.He ignited flames with both hands, clenched into fists, and swung towards Jinbei.

Jinbe is good at karate and jujitsu, this kind of attack, he dodged it well.It was the burning sensation brought by the flames that made him a little uncomfortable as a murloc.

"Oh, it started so soon." Mandala was still a little surprised. Although there were some discrepancies with the dialogue in the plot, the two finally fought.She walked to a hill not far away and watched this earth-shattering duel condescendingly.

"Manman, you don't look worried at all." Watching the fierce fight, Siren's heart rose to her throat.But it's really strange that Mandala, who likes Ace so much on weekdays, is so leisurely watching the battle from the sidelines.

"No, it's not that I'm not worried. I just firmly believe that Ace will not lose." Mandala took out a few potatoes from her pocket, and her Nereus slowly peeled them.

"Manman, are you afraid that Ace will be tired from fighting, do you want to cook him food?" The siren was a little surprised, who didn't expect Mandala to be able to do some practical things besides nympho Ace.

"No." Mandala glanced at the siren, a little embarrassed, "Ace fights, how can he be hungry. He won't think of eating until he finishes fighting."

"Then who are you?" The Siren asked, pointing to a potato that Mandala had already peeled.

"Take out the cheese in your pocket." Mandala continued to peel the potatoes, and soon another white, tender, round potato was peeled, "After I cut the potatoes, you tear the cheese into pieces. strip, and stuff it in."

"What are you going to do?" The siren still didn't understand, but she still did as Mandala asked.

"Cheese potatoes." Mandala raised his head and nodded with his chin, "Look at Ace, the ground under his feet is almost scorched. Let's touch the side later and wrap the potatoes in oiled paper Get up, then bury it in the ground, and it will be ready to eat soon.”

"Manman!" The siren couldn't help screaming, she was ecstatic, and then started to tear the cheese sticks.

And Ace, who was below, vaguely heard a scream from the siren. He didn't know what happened, but now he couldn't move away to pay attention to what happened behind him.

"Brother, don't be distracted." Although Jinbe's face was blackened by Ace's flames, he still kept smiling.

"Hmph, if I don't get distracted, my men can eat grilled fish tonight." Ace also laughed, and he raised the flames around his body to another level.
