September of One Piece

Ace was sitting on the bow of the Moby Dick, seemingly waiting for something. Phoenix Marco had been watching Ace sitting for almost the whole morning. "Ace, what are you doing?" Marco stepped forward and asked suspiciously.

"Wait for an old friend." Ace lowered the brim of his hat and said happily with the corners of his mouth raised.Marco raised his eyebrows in doubt and didn't ask any more questions.

"Hi~ Ace, long time no see." Jiuyue suddenly appeared in front of Ace: "You are really hard to find, I have teleported a lot of places."

"Long time no see." Ace, who had been lowering his head slightly, stood up from the deck and raised his head with a big smile: "September."

Marco stared blankly at Jiuyue who suddenly appeared on the side of the boat. He didn't mean to be defensive at all. He just pointed at Jiuyue and said to Ace: "Ace! I didn't even know you had a sister!"

After Marco's words, Ace's face obviously had a 'terrible' expression, and before Marco could react, he suddenly flew out with a big bruise on his face.

"What do you think! I'm not a woman either!" Jiuyue said angrily, but this is Ace's valued partner, and Jiuyue didn't do any other bad things after all. "Have you found where you belong?"

"Well! Not bad! This is Dad's boat." Ace looked at Marco, and after confirming that he was just stunned by Jiuyue's sudden punch and there was nothing wrong with him, he proudly looked at Marco. Introduced in September, this is the boat of his father who he is proud of, and his father is one of the "Four Emperors", a white beard who is known as 'the strongest man in the world' - Edward Newgate.

"It's really good, but one day, Luffy will surpass him." September said equally proudly.

"I knew that you were facing Lu Fei, I was the one who found you unconscious on the beach." Ace said helplessly.

"That's different, Luffy is Luffy." September smiled at Ace, and said with a cheeky look, in front of Ace and Luffy, September never pretended to be himself, so he didn't know, he What an amazing smile at the moment.

Estor glanced at Jiuyue twice, narrowing his eyes slightly, his eyes seemed a little lonely, but they were replaced by a smile instead.

"Okay, let's talk, calling me in such a hurry, you even used the lifeline I left you." September leaned on the side of the boat and asked, Ace, who hadn't contacted Jiuyue for many years, suddenly contacted with a lifeline He said it was important. (When Ace left the island to go on a pirate adventure, Jiuyue gave him a way to contact him anytime, anywhere. This kind of lifeline is engraved on his arm. When he wants to contact him, he just needs to inject the energy of the devil fruit. At the same time Can be used to save Ace's life in life or death.)

Speaking of business, Ace became serious: "I hope you can help me see Dad's body."

"White Beard?" Jiuyue said, "Ace, you know, I'm not good at healing. The only thing I can use is that technique to cure him, but you know the consequences of that technique."

"Well, I know, but, I really don't want to see my father just... decline..." Ace clenched his fists, as if he was asking Jiuyue for full authority.

September was silent for a while, then shrugged: "If you don't mind, I don't care."

--------

Ace takes September to meet Whitebeard.Whitebeard's body was covered with nutrient solution pipes all over his body, and an oxygen inhalation tube was inserted in his nose, which made him look quite embarrassed, but his aura as the strongest man did not weaken much.

"Son, is he the younger brother you've been talking about?" White Beard looked Jiuyue up and down, he could feel the aura of the same strong man, I'm afraid the seemingly white and weak little Jiuyue in front of him, It's an extremely scary guy.

"Father, this is my younger brother Jiuyue. As long as Jiuyue is around, your injury will definitely recover!" Ace patted his chest and said confidently.

"Really?" Whitebeard let out his unique 'Gulala' laugh, looked at Ace, and then at Jiuyue: "My injury is not an ordinary injury, it's just that my body is not as good as before. .”

"It's all the same. Since it was asked by Ace, I will naturally do my best." Jiuyue said with a smile: "Do you want to start right away? Your body is not aging so fast."

"I heard from Ace that this technique has consequences." Whitebeard didn't care at all about Jiuyue who walked forward without any precautions. Should it be said that he trusts Ace too much, or should he say that he treats his son The 'love' loves the house and the tweed.

"Ah, you said that the consequences are not borne by me, but by you." Jiuyue said casually, but this sentence obviously attracted protests and opposition from the other sons of Whitebeard.

"Sons, don't worry, listen to Jiuyue."

Looking at Jiuyue, she still had a calm white beard: "I don't think you care about the consequences."

"Who doesn't care about the consequences? Although my bones are old, I still want to spend more time with my sons, see them again, and go to a wider world." White Beard said, attracting him The sobbing of the sons, and Ace's slightly sad face, but then Ace thought of September, and immediately perked up.

"Dad, the consequences of that operation in September are not that serious! You will definitely not die! You will just become younger." Ace said so, but what he said obviously made others puzzled, along with Whitebeard Inside too.

"Youth counts as a consequence?" Marco asked in confusion, but Ace didn't know how to explain in detail, so he could only look at September.

Jiuyue explained very cooperatively: "Before casting this spell, I have to explain one thing first. I am a mage. When I release any magic, I hope everyone will keep quiet. The spell I cast is called backtracking, which can make The recipient can reverse time, but there is only one chance for this reversal, and whether it succeeds depends entirely on your own will, Whitebeard. After all, most of it is used by me for dead things, and the will of living things will change the time and time of the retrospective. Circumstances, if this unknown change causes the backtracking to fail..."

"Will he die?!" Marco immediately stepped forward and asked, but received a fire fist from Ace.

"What's not going to die! Dad won't die! It's been said that Jiuyue's technique won't kill people!" Ace said angrily.

"It's true that you won't die, it's just that you will stay in this state for the rest of your life, that is to say..." September looked at Marco and continued.

"It's always in such an aging state, isn't time suspended at this moment?" White Beard said with a slight seriousness, this kind of time flowing backwards in the body, this kind of thing, White Beard has never heard of it, and if September really To be able to do this, then September...what a terrifying existence...

"That's right. Before stopping, you have to add forever, which is to stop forever at this moment. Your body will never continue to age, but it will not be young, and you cannot die." September slowly confided These words drew silence from White Beard and the others.

"I object!" After a long silence, Marco was the first to stand up and said: "The consequences are too serious!"

"Is that why you don't believe daddy?!" Ace's temper immediately surged when he heard what Marco said.

"It's not that I don't believe in Dad, it's just that the consequences are terrible! If he fails, wouldn't Dad have to live in pain forever! Haven't you considered this!!" Marco also yelled at Ace Woke up, hearing what Marco said, Ace actually began to hesitate.

Jiuyue rolled her eyes speechlessly, but she didn't say anything. After all, the right to decide this kind of thing is still with Whitebeard himself.

"Guhaha, that's it, that's enough." White Beard laughed loudly, watching his sons quarreling and worried because of his affairs, the warmth in his heart made him feel no aging and wounds at all. come the pain.Whitebeard actually decided not to make any changes, and kept it as it was.

Although Ace felt deep regret after hearing what Whitebeard said, he still cheered up, looked at Whitebeard and smiled: "What a stubborn old man. I'm sorry, September, I let you go for nothing."

Ace said to September apologetically, September shrugged, and replied after a while: "It's impossible to go back and curb aging, but it's possible to heal his old wounds first."

"Aren't you not good at that healing technique?"

"Yeah." Jiuyue said, while flying towards the white beard, this white beard is really tall, and Jiuyue is not as tall as his knees... "If you can't go back, then just take the time of the injury away. "

As September said, before Whitebeard could react, a huge and precise gear table rose from behind him, and a little bit of starlight floated out from the clock and hourglass made of gears, and then turned into black particles and disappeared in the September hands.

With the continuous increase and decrease of the black particles, the wounds on Whitebeard's body are actually recovering towards the state of healing, and the hidden wounds in his body have also healed a lot.

After a long time, Jiuyue stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "You have suffered too many injuries, I can only receive this, and if I want to recover, I can only use backtracking."

Whitebeard pulled out the needles and infusion tubes on his body one by one, and stood up suddenly, feeling the abundant strength in his body. Because of the healing of the wound, the feeling of weakness caused by aging has also weakened a lot.

"Thank you." White Beard said solemnly after looking at Jiuyue for a long time. The meaning of this thank you is extraordinary.

"You're welcome." Jiuyue didn't care about Whitebeard's favor, and sat down on the ground directly. He was exhausted, and Whitebeard is worthy of being the strongest man. It is really not easy to extract time from his body thing.

"September, are you okay!" Ace stepped forward and asked with concern.

"Now that you think about it, you care about my cheap little brother, don't you? Really! Stupid Ace!" Jiuyue shook his fist and shouted at Ace. Didn't he just stand by the side during the treatment and didn't fart? one.

"It's not that you said to keep quiet..." Ace muttered, but seeing Jiuyue's warning eyes, he decided to shut up, "Aren't you not good at healing, I haven't seen you use this before."

"This is another usage of backtracking, dividing time, but this method can only be used once in each person's lifetime, and there is no way to remove all injuries, and at the same time, it cannot inhibit aging. The biggest advantage is that it can be temporarily peeled off. Death, well, this explanation can't be explained clearly, anyway, the reason why your father is so effective is only because he is strong enough, he deserves to be the strongest man."

"You are really strong if you can do this, alright... stripping death... this ability is too terrifying..." Another thought that popped up in the minds of Ace and others was surprisingly consistent.

After staying on Whitebeard's boat for a few days, September is completely familiar with Whitebeard and his sons. Whitebeard even directly recognizes September as his son, and wants to put September under the leadership of Ace. In the second team, it was a pity that September rejected him on the grounds that he had already joined the Pirates, but the name of mage September was still passed on among the members of Whitebeard's team, and September was also happy to accept it. After the flight, you can ask Whitebeard's sons to take care of them, um, take care of them.

Jiuyue, who was about to leave the meeting with Luffy and the others, stood on the side of the boat and waved goodbye to Ace: "Can you bring me some greetings for Luffy?"

Ace thought about it, and finally took out a piece of paper from his trouser pocket. After looking at it in September, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Is Ace's character design broken or is it just like this? !Why is the meeting gift that Ace gave Luffy his own arrest warrant, and he even found the latest version... "Are you sure you want me to give this to Luffy?"

"On the way of growth, we still have to have a goal. When the bounty on the arrest warrant exceeds me, that's the time for him to truly grow into a strong man! Haha" Ace laughed.

September waved her hand speechlessly, bid farewell to Ace, and disappeared from this sea area in an instant.

Ace passed the life line, feeling the departure of September, and couldn't help sighing, although he solved the father's problem and let some of the big stones in his chest drop, but... "Why did I fall in love with Luffy, don't I Isn’t it gentlemanly and handsome enough?…”

Marco stood not far away, listening to Ace's words, and sighed regretfully for Ace. It's really not that they don't help, but Jiuyue, who never leaves Luffy in three sentences, is really too slow... Having been with them for so many days, I didn’t even notice Ace’s obvious gesture of favor. This self-consciousness as a younger brother is too heavy. Marco shook his head while going back to his room, and the only thing left was still there. In sad Ace.
