[One Piece] Brother Ace, please pay the bill

~~~~~Sometimes, what a man needs is another man’s comfort~~~~~

"boom,"

With a loud noise, something unknown suddenly smashed a big hole in the hull of the Moby Dick.Sawdust was flying and scattered everywhere.

"thump,"

Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of a heavy object falling into the water, and something seemed to fly out of the hull.

"Ace is doing his best to challenge Dad again," the crew seemed to be used to such a scene, they didn't stop what they were doing at all, they just said it out of their mouths.

"Ace fell into the water," Mandala was not as calm as the others, she grabbed the side of the boat and screamed loudly.

"Dad didn't beat him to death, even if he fell into the water, it doesn't matter." Sachs leaned against the side of the mast, picking his teeth leisurely with a toothpick.

"But Ace is a demon with superpowers, he will die and drown!" Mandala watched Ace still thumping, but now the sea water had covered his neck.

"Then go and save him." Sach raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Aren't you his wife?"

"I..." Mandala looked down and saw that he was wearing a white shirt. If he got into the water, it would not be the rhythm of full exposure.Besides Ace, she doesn't want to be taken advantage of by others.

"Then Marco, go!" Mandala raised his leg and kicked Marco's ass who was also watching the show.

How did Marco expect that Mandala would attack him, he fell off the boat when his center of gravity was unstable.

"Hey, Marco is also a devil fruit capable user." Sach sighed, but he still didn't want to get off the boat to save people.

"Ace, step on Marco's head and jump up!" Mandala clasped his hands together and shouted.

"What bad idea did you come up with!" Sage frowned. He took two steps, untied a rope from the side of the boat, and threw it towards the two of them.

Mandala walked over silently, and helped Sage pull up the two who had fallen into the water.

Being very considerate, Mandala went to the cabin to find a clean bath towel and put it on for Ace.Under Marco's jealous eyes, Mandala sat down next to Ace.

"Is there a phone bug in the sea?" Sage frowned, looking shocked.

"Yes, when I fell just now, I saw something in the sea. As a result, Marco also fell into the water, just hitting the phone bug." Ace took the towel and wiped the water droplets on his body.But the sea water on his black hair is still dripping, hitting the strong chest muscles, which looks very attractive.

Mandala looked away, concentrating on what Ace told him about his discovery.

"Did it fall from the boat?" Marco let the sea breeze dry his clothes, not minding the wet image at all.

"That's your business, go investigate it yourself." Ace stood up, beckoned to Mandala, turned and walked into the cabin.

Mandala hurriedly followed, and she had actually noticed that there might be navy spies hiding on board.

The warship I saw a few days ago would definitely not be a blind collision. The navy's warships have far more choices than the pirates, and there is no need to crowd with the Whitebeard Pirates.And judging from the current strength of Whitebeard, the navy dare not directly declare war.

There is only one reason that can be figured out, and that is Ace.

Mandala remembers that Ace's true identity was known to the Navy shortly after he boarded Whitebeard's ship.But this kind of thing, even among the Whitebeard Pirates, should only be known to a very small number of people.

"Ace." The more Mandala thought about it, the flustered she became. She stretched out her hand and grabbed Ace's arm. "What does that phone bug look like? Could it be used for eavesdropping?"

"Eavesdropping?" Ace stopped, turned around, and looked at Mandala with a confused expression on his face, "The Navy doesn't need to eavesdrop, and they can fully grasp the movements of the Whitebeard Pirates, right? Such a big ship Team, there is no way to hide their tracks."

"It's not this..." Mandala pursed her lips, and she didn't know how to speak.With her current status, it is impossible for her to know that Ace is Roger's child, so how can she draw her own inference.

"Don't think about it so much, Mandala." Ace laughed, he hadn't smiled so heartily for a long time, "Although Whitebeard is my mortal enemy now, I think the crew on this ship, It is absolutely impossible to betray their captain."

"Yeah." Nodding along with Ace against his will, Mandala suddenly understood why he was so angry after Blackbeard killed Sarge.

Although he didn't admit it, Mandala knew that Ace had actually been subdued by Whitebeard's charm.It's just that Marco's finishing touch is still missing.One more nudge and Ace would be Whitebeard's son.

=================================================================== ==========================

Holding a spoon, Mandala slowly stirred the ingredients in the pot.Saatchi's cooking skills are actually not bad, but compared to William's, it is far behind.

"What are you cooking, it smells so good?" Sach combed his weird jet hair and walked into the kitchen.

"Well, this, it should be called chowder soup." There are not many ingredients in the kitchen, and the scheduled supply island has not yet arrived.There was no other way, Mandala had no choice but to cook all kinds of messy things in one pot.Unexpectedly, since the appearance is quite good.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." Sach said regretfully while shaking his head.

"What's the pity?" Mandala scooped up a little with a spoon, she blew on it, and took a sip, "It tastes good, what's the pity?"

"It is said that in 20 years, there was a talented chef in our pirate team. I think you are so talented, it's a pity that you didn't meet him." Sachs also picked up the spoon consciously, and drank it by himself. stand up.

"Genius chef?" Mandala immediately thought of the playful chef Sanji, "Has he ever been to ALLBLUE?"

"Yes." Sage nodded, he was not surprised that Mandala would ask this question.

"Really?" The spoon in Mandala's hand fell into the soup at once, she stretched out her hand and grabbed Sage's collar, "Where is it?"

"How do I know, he wasn't on the boat when I came on board, otherwise how could someone like me be caught as a cook!" Sach twisted his neck, wanting to breathe a little air.

"Cut!" Mandala shook off her hand, turned around and ran out of the kitchen.

Although counting the time, it will be a long time before Luffy goes to sea and meets Sanji.But Mandala knew that Ace would meet Luffy in Alabasta, and at that time, he might be able to meet Sanji.

Before running to the deck, Mandala saw Ace sitting alone on the side of the boat.He bowed his head and buried his face between his knees.

"Do you want to comfort me?" Marco did not know when he appeared behind Mandala. He bent down and whispered softly.

"It's useless for me to comfort him." Mandala shook his head slightly, "Marco, I really don't understand the kind of romance you men insist on."

"It's romantic, it's a stinky dried salted fish." Marco raised his leg, walked around Mandala and walked out.And he held a bowl of soup in his hand, and the smell was exactly the aroma that Mandala had stewed for more than two hours just now.

Seeing Ace cheered up by Marco's few words, Mandala couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Could she really save him?

After she rescued him, where would she go?

Obviously feel that the two hearts are slowly getting closer, but why do I have no confidence at all now?

"Mandala, let's go, it's time for dinner." Ace got up, picked up the bowl, and walked slowly towards Mandala.I had eaten on that white sailboat for more than a year, how could I not taste that this bowl of soup was made by Mandala.

"Let me remind you first, Sach's cooking skills are not as good as mine." Mandala smiled and took the empty bowl in Ace's hand. She tilted her head and smiled at Marco.

"And if you eat in the restaurant, you will be fainted by the smelly sweat." Marco joked, but he had learned a lot of Mandala's complaints from Saqi.

"Why are you so small? Could it be that after eating a bird-type devil fruit, people will also become jittery and fluffy?" Mandala's tenderness was all applied to Ace, For others, she really has no balance left.

"That's not a bird's devil fruit, it's an animal, a phantom beast!" Marco retorted a little excitedly, and she actually said that the ability she was proud of was chicken feathers.

"It's all the same." Ace laughed, holding Mandala with one hand, and hooking Marco's neck with the other, "After we've had dinner, I want to meet Whitebeard..., um... "

"It's okay, I'll get used to it soon." Marco also knew that "Daddy" is not so easy to say, but as long as he integrates into this pirate group, he will soon be able to treat that person as his father up.He scratched his chest, where there was a purple tattoo on the skin slightly darker than Ace's.

A beard like a crescent moon, and a cross that doesn't know whether it bears evil or righteousness.
