[Comprehensive] Fire Boxer's Little Chef

Someone once praised his smile as a sunflower.

Warm and bright like the sun.

He had seen the kind of golden flowers that always turned towards the sun in the Kingdom of Goa.

But at that time, the only impression left was the huge flower plate and the delicious sunflower seeds.

"Seeing Ace's smile makes me feel very happy."

The proprietress Makino, who is as gentle as water in Luffy's hometown of Windmill Village, once said this to him.

At that time, he was just a ten-year-old child, and when he was praised by an adult, he felt embarrassed and blushed, but at the same time he felt happy from the bottom of his heart, and then showed a brighter smile.

"Ace, you laugh so silly."

At this time, Luffy on the side would always make up for it foolishly.

After that, it will naturally trigger a chasing after me.

Luffy, that guy, never said a good word.

"You are the flame."

Later, Wayne, who became his partner, suddenly said such a sentence.

"what?"

He raised his index finger for some unknown reason, and a small bright flame shot out from it.

"It doesn't refer to your fruit ability..."

After saying that, Wayne didn't make a sound, leaving him alone to rack his brains to figure out the meaning of Wayne's words.

For Ace, there are four crucial existences in his life.

The first one is the mother who gave him the chance to come to this world, Portgas d. Loujiu.

From the moment he knew his true identity, he didn't like his father who had never met but was known to the world.

Even a little resentful.

It's all because of that person, so his existence is hated and spurned by everyone. He has done nothing bad, but he will be denied by everyone in the world.

The term father, to him, is the worst existence.

But he didn't have any complaints about the mother who gave birth to him only twenty months after she was pregnant. Apart from gratitude, there was only regret.

It's a pity that I didn't even get to see her great mother.

The second one is the brother who grew up with him for so many years - Luffy.

Rectum, single tendon, single cell, these are the most common words used to describe that guy.

Apart from Sabo, that guy was the only one who actively wanted to be friends with him, and even after knowing his life experience, he didn't cast a strange look of disgust.

It is one of the few existences who wish him to live in this world.

No matter who it is, it is said that he is a competent brother. After Sabo left, he took care of Luffy in every possible way, and even his own brothers would not have such a sincere relationship between the two of them.

But only he himself knows that Luffy is the one who really redeemed him. If there were no Luffy and Sabo, his childhood would be dark, full of resentment and resentment.

The third one is Dad.

White Beard is a man with an open mind, just like he is the most powerful man in this ocean, his mind is also the broadest in this ocean.

When he was not a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace heard all kinds of legends about this legendary figure, the most of which was about the "cruel atrocities" of this "worst" pirate, but this It's just what the general population has heard that pirates are evil existences to them, so this doesn't have much credibility.

But what he heard from his fellow pirates was something else, which was the highest praise for the strongest man.

He couldn't help being curious about this existence that was as powerful as his so-called father.

Although he declared that he wanted to obtain the head of the white beard to prove that he was the most powerful existence and other arrogant words, but in fact it was just to see the gap between himself and the so-called strongest, so as to see himself The gap with that so-called father.

The result is a complete failure...

But it turns out that Whitebeard is indeed a broad-minded person, not only accepting him who wanted to assassinate him, but also accepting his identity as the son of his former sworn enemy.

"Bear my reputation on your back, roam the ocean, and be my son."

The world is so big, but there are very few places that can accommodate him.

The man extended an invitation to him, and gave him another place to stay besides that small village in the Kingdom of Goa.

He easily erased his identity as the son of the One Piece. From now on, his father will only be Whitebeard, and he will always bear Whitebeard's reputation and gallop freely in this sea.

And the last existence is Wayne.

Pregnant with mother Lu Jiu for [-] months, she exhausted her vitality to give birth to him, lived and died with Lu Fei Sabo, broke through a world, and experienced a lot of twists and turns, and won the appreciation and tolerance of the old man.

The acquaintance with Wayne is surprisingly ordinary.

It was so common that the two of them would have a chance to get in touch, but it was just one of the countless big and small overlord meals in his life.

The only difference is probably that Wayne didn't chase him out like the other restaurant owners after he finished the Bawang meal. He had imagined countless times that if Wayne chased him out like the other bosses that time, wouldn't it be wrong? There will be follow-up development.

Ace didn't know.

Wayne didn't know either.

Later, he also asked Wayne why he didn't catch up that time, and Wayne's answer was that he couldn't run him, so there was no need to chase him.

The extremely cold voice blocked him for a moment.

It can only be said that even though he has known Wayne for so many years, he still cannot understand the way of thinking in his mind.

So the period when they met and got acquainted was left behind intentionally or unintentionally by the two of them, and they no longer pursued the various reasons and opportunities.

But the only thing that is certain is that if he hadn't met Wayne, maybe he would not be in this world by now, not to mention, he would still be able to go on adventures with this partner and lover.

Regarding the matter of falling in love with Wayne, even if the current Ace is asked to answer, it may not be able to give a definite answer.

He is not like Luffy's single-celled guy. Apart from eating and sleeping, he only has to work hard to become the One Piece.Even though he may be a little slower than ordinary people in that respect, he still knows that he likes this kind of relationship.

Before getting to know Wayne, even though he knew that there was a third relationship besides friendship and family, he didn't think about it.He belongs to the Whitebeard Pirates, and he will spend most of his life on this blue sea, so he only needs to have companions.

Although he thought so, he had also thought about what that person would look like if he really fell in love with him.

It should be a very gentle person, just like the bar proprietress in Windmill Village, she is a careful, kind and gentle existence, and she has a nice and warm smile.

But in fact, in the end, he fell in love with someone who should have nothing to do with tenderness.

Although Wayne's smile is really pretty, but the chances to see it are very few.

Cold, indifferent, expressionless, these are the words used to describe Wayne.

None can be associated with the word gentle.

But he just fell in love with such a person.

I was so caught off guard that I didn't even realize when I fell in love with the other party.

At first, I just simply liked his cooking.

Among the people he met, there were very few people who could cook ordinary ingredients so deliciously.

The distance between the new world where the Whitebeard Pirates are located and the small restaurant where Wayne is located cannot be described as thousands of miles away.

But in order to be able to have a meal here, he spared no effort to spend a lot of time and energy, traveling long distances from the New World to this small coastal town.

Thinking about it now, Ace himself can't answer whether he traveled all the way to that small town just for the delicious food, or if there were other reasons involved.

After the two became partners, he came to Wayne's small restaurant more frequently.

The more chances to get in touch with Wayne.

He is actually a willful person.

The closer the relationship with the other party, the more unscrupulous and reckless he will be.

But Ace thinks that he is a polite person, and he will not lack the etiquette that he should have. Even if he is eating a king's meal, he will greet the other party well, express his thanks, and then run away.

"Aren't you being too presumptuous?"

One day, Ace heard his partner say such a sentence to him, and a hint of helplessness and dissatisfaction appeared on his face, which had never had any expression fluctuations.

"Eh?"

Ace stared blankly at the food that appeared on his plate that had already been swept away, and then at his partner's empty plate, before realizing that he had "robbed" the other's food.

This was not intentional, it should be said that it was an unconscious action.

But as far as he is concerned, he will snatch food from other people's plates, which is something he would only do when facing Luffy and Sabo when he was young.

There are many ways to express intimacy, but for Ace, this behavior of snatching food from the other party is undoubtedly an expression of his close relationship with the other party.

Then Ace suddenly realized that he had unconsciously regarded Wayne as an intimate existence.

But if this means that he fell in love with Wayne, that's not necessarily true.

Because he also grabbed food with Marco and other captains, so at that time, he should just treat Wayne as a close existence as a companion.

As for liking, Ace thinks it is more likely to be a habit.

Get used to him cooking the most delicious food when he is hungry, get used to that person's taciturnity, get used to that person's expressionless face, get used to that person's indifference.

Until I get used to not having that person by my side, I will feel unaccustomed, and then this habit will slowly deteriorate into liking one day.

To like Wayne seems to be something that goes with the flow, even taken for granted, so natural that liking Wayne seems to be as normal as breathing.

So he confessed, he confessed without even knowing when and why he fell in love with the other party.

But he didn't think it was a rash thing to do.

Because he really likes the young man named Wayne who is the same gender as him.

Not only do I like his cooking, but I also like that person.

I like it very much, to the extent that even if he rejects him, he will not give up.

He is not a persistent person, and he does not have the perseverance to go forward with a wave of enthusiasm like Lu Fei, but if he meets someone who makes him persistent, his level of persistence will not be worse than that of Lu Fei, and he even has Nothing less than that.

Wayne is undoubtedly the object that makes him obsessed.

Unexpectedly, but arguably expectedly, Wayne agreed.

Agree to his confession.

His partner has since become his lover.

Who should he share this supreme joy with?

The world is so big, and there are so many people passing by him, but in the end, there will always be only one person who can truly accompany him for a lifetime.

Ace felt that his life was very valuable.

Being able to have two brothers, Luffy and Sabo, to fill the vacancy in childhood, having a father like Whitebeard to accommodate his existence that is not tolerated by the world, and being able to have a group of companions like the Whitebeard Pirates, even Later, he found a lover who would accompany him for a lifetime, and this kind of life was enough for him.

So when he was on the top of the battle, he was able to maintain a smiling state with peace of mind, and fell in front of Luffy.

Because he has no regrets.

"You are the flame..."

Wayne's cold voice rang in his mind at the last moment when he closed his eyes.

But in the end, he still couldn't figure out the meaning contained in the words of that extremely handsome young man.

Until a long, long time later, on a sunny afternoon, he inadvertently heard the sleepy soft voice of a young man lying on the counter taking a nap...

"You are the flame... warming my whole world..."
