[Pirate] Ann

Chapter 48

War, fighting for each other, fighting for "justice", fighting for survival, but as time goes by, people will become more and more crazy, and they are all red-eyed.

When the red-haired pirates appeared here, they saw such a scene.

"We are here to put an end to this war!" Shanks stood at the front and said loudly: "It is meaningless to continue this war. If anyone wants to continue fighting, then let us The red-haired pirates come to accompany you!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent, the fighting spirit that had been high just now dissipated, and the war——was over.

"That can't be done, the blood of One Piece must be wiped out!" Akainu stared closely at Ann, who was protected by the white-bearded crew, and had no intention of retreating at all.

"..." At this time, everyone in the red-haired pirates saw An's appearance, and their emotions became a little uneasy. Some people who usually have a good relationship with An are holding their weapons tightly at this moment, and it can be seen that their eye sockets are a little dizzy. red.

Shanks frowned slightly and looked away, put his hands on the hilt of his waist, "You..." Before he could say a word, a woman ran out from behind a group of people, and they didn't see until she stood still Seeing this person's appearance, they were all taken aback.

"Ann is my sister," Bena shouted with all his might, "it has nothing to do with One Piece or Fire Fist Ace!"

Seeing her appearance, Akainu frowned, and asked in a calm voice, "What evidence do you have to prove it?"

"Are you blind!" Bena yelled at him angrily. As soon as the words came out, everyone standing behind her, including the red hair, couldn't help but froze.

"What did you say?" Akainu looked at her angrily.

"You can tell that we are sisters just by looking at her and me! Are you blind!" At the end, Bernard repeated those three words again. This time the people behind her came to their senses, but for Such an image subversion by Bena is somewhat unacceptable.

Akainu narrowed his eyes in displeasure, when Sengoku stopped him, "Enough, I don't think anyone would be willing to come to this place for someone who has nothing to do with it, I believe what she said."

"..." Akainu remained silent, and looked at Bena unwillingly before turning and leaving.

In this way, the war is completely over.

"Hurry up! Be careful!" Several people carried Ann and Ace to the infirmary of the Red Forth. Larch and Wilder were ready for surgery at this time, and the two were sent into the room , They immediately drove the idlers out and began to operate.

Shanks took Beckman and his party and the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates back to the ship after dealing with the funeral of Whitebeard and Ace, and saw people standing from the deck to the door of the infirmary. They all looked anxious.

Although everyone automatically got out of the way when they saw Shanks and his party, it still took a while for them to reach the door of the infirmary.

"How's the situation?" Shanks tugged at the cloak that was pushed aside, and asked Landa who was guarding the door.

"Nothing at all." Landa shook her head.

"Ace... can he be saved?" Marco couldn't help clenching his fists.

"Maybe." Beckman took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, but stopped when he was about to light it. He hesitated for a while, and finally took the cigarette away, "Larch's father, Dr. A cure for an aging disease..."

"Wait... aging disease? Since when did Ace have this disease?" one of the captains interrupted him.

"When they were looking for Tikki, then what?" Marko said.

"He uses a drug that can put people in a state of suspended animation, but this drug is an experimental product and has certain side effects. When his physical condition deteriorates, he will enter a deep sleep...even directly enter a state of suspended animation, of course At this time, if no one cares about it, you will die directly." Beckman gently turned the cigarette, "In a situation like theirs, they should enter a state of suspended animation first, but Ace's degree of injury cannot be recovered in a short time. Internal treatment is cured, but fortunately, with Wilder, this problem has also been solved.”

All the captains couldn't help holding their breath, it was because everything was so coincidental that they couldn't believe it.

The operation lasted for dozens of hours, and none of the people outside the door left, and they all waited silently.Until Larch and Wilde opened the door with tired faces, people outside immediately swarmed up, but in the next second, Larch stepped forward and stopped them all, "Now the two of them need to rest quietly, no one is allowed go in!"

"How is Ace?"

"How's Ann?"

Two almost identical questions sounded at the same time. Larch glanced at the nervous expressions of the people in front of him, sighed slightly, and turned his head to look at Wilder.

"The situation of the two has stabilized for the time being." Wilder said after receiving Larch's signal, and then he quickly picked up before everyone had time to cheer: "However, the next 48 hours are a dangerous period. If you can't survive this operation, it will be futile, so I hope everyone will remain absolutely quiet."

So the cheers that didn't come out in time were abruptly swallowed. Everyone looked at each other and made a silent movement in unison.

After persuading the crowded aisle to disperse, Wilder explained in detail to the rest of the people, "Ace's situation is not optimistic, part of his original internal organs were burnt, thanks to my thorough preparation , and now temporarily filled the vacancy, but after the past two days, I have to replace him with a more suitable one."

The captains couldn't help crying. When Ace was "killed" in front of their eyes, they didn't have time to do anything. Now they know that he can be saved, which is already a great favor to them.

Marco also wiped some unbearable tears. He exchanged glances with the captains and bowed to Larch and Wilder together, "Thank you!"

"This..." Wilder was obviously not used to such a scene, and looked at Larch in a daze, and as a result, Larch's expression was not natural.

"Redhead, you won back the right to bury Dad for us, and now you have saved Ace. We don't know how to repay this kindness." Marco raised his body and continued.

"You're welcome, Ann is our companion, and Ann's older brother is also our brother, so naturally we won't just sit idly by. In addition, Ann was also taken care of by White Beard a lot on the battlefield, so now we are clear." Xiang Xiang Kex laughed, and as if he didn't want to entangle Marko and the others, he immediately turned around and asked Larch, "What about Ann?"

"Ann..." Laqi frowned, with an angry but helpless expression on his face, "That stinky girl is not much better than Ace, her health is already poor, and she encountered so many things after she escaped, Both body and spirit are already at their limits, plus they have been stimulated again..." Laqi stopped here, and after taking a deep breath, he continued: "I'm afraid after this time...she will no longer be able to continue with us. We went to sea together."

"..."

It wasn't a news they wanted to hear, but it was good enough compared to "death news".

"Let An stay with me from now on." A soft female voice sounded behind the crowd, they turned their heads together and saw Bena walking towards this side, "I lied to the whole world, if you don't If that’s the case, I don’t think the navy will let Ann go. And now that her body is failing, why not let her come to me and live under the eyes of ordinary people, so that the navy can’t act rashly.”

"It's indeed a good idea. There's 'Pluto' Rayleigh and Aunt Xia there, and nothing will happen to Ann." Beckman nodded in agreement, and then he looked at the silent Shanks.

"...Okay, let's do it like this!" Shanks didn't spend too much time thinking, he nodded quickly.

After that, it was an extremely long 48 hours.

Wilder is mainly responsible for observing Ace's situation, and Larch is responsible for taking care of Ann. The two have hardly rested, and their nerves have been in a state of high tension.

Fortunately, their efforts paid off. After 48 hours, Ace and Ann's condition finally stabilized.

But Ace had to undergo another operation, so Ann was taken to another room, and Shanks finally got permission to visit.

"Others just stand at the door and take a look, don't make a noise to Ann!" Larch said unceremoniously to the others who were still standing at the door eager to try after letting a few people in.

"Hey—" the crowd lowered their voices and protested.

"If you have any opinions, don't read it!"

"..." Shanks, who was about to say something, immediately shut his mouth.

At this time, Ann was still asleep, and Shanks looked at her peaceful sleeping face with his eyes slightly lowered.

She didn't regret letting Ann board the boat to take risks with her, nor did she blame herself for not doing her best to stop her. After all, according to her character, no matter what she did, she would end up like this in the end.But Shanks always felt as if something was blocked in his heart, no matter how deep he took a deep breath, he couldn't make this uncomfortable feeling go away.

He just looked at Ann so quietly, and his already unhealthy face was even paler now, which made people feel distressed.Although her life was saved, she also lost an arm. Although Wilder fitted her with a prosthesis, she must encounter various inconveniences in her life in the future.

Seeing Shanks' expression, Beckman sighed silently in his heart. He walked up to Larch and said a few words to him softly. Larch frowned and hesitated for a while, then nodded.

"Shanks," Beckman walked back to Shanks and patted him on the shoulder, "We're going out first, you can stay here alone for a while."

"...Well, thank you." Shanks said softly without looking back.

Beckman smiled and walked out of the room with the others. The crew members outside the door were also very sensible and said nothing at this time, and each dispersed to do their own things.

Hearing the sound of the door being gently closed, Shanks sighed deeply, pulled a chair and sat down beside the bed.

"Ann." He softly called Ann's name, but what responded to him was still that even breathing.Shanks twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a somewhat bitter smile, "It's really worrying, I can't take my eyes off you for a while..."

"Fortunately, your efforts were not in vain, Ace is still alive..." His voice trembled unconsciously, "You are alive too."

Probably because the older he gets, the more he is afraid of losing. Shanks is a person who attaches great importance to his partners, let alone this girl who insists on occupying a place in his heart.At that time, if Bena hadn't stood up to confront Akainu, he didn't know what he would do next. He just remembered that the string of reason was tightly stretched, almost to the limit.

Maybe he'll fight the navy for Ann like Whitebeard did for Ace, or maybe he'll be calmer instead.But now the matter is over, so even he himself doesn't know the answer, after all, things that can make him feel that way now will basically never happen again.

He took a deep breath, forced the image of An's body covered in blood to escape from his mind, and continued: "When you wake up, I will definitely scold you, do you know how much your waywardness worries us? You would rather go to danger alone than ask us for help, what do you think of everyone?" He said, stretching out his hand to stroke Ann's hair, "Then when you get better, we will part, and we will be separated without you in the future On the boat, everyone will feel very lonely."

"..."

"It's a pity that there is no hangover soup to drink."

"Well, it's nothing, anyway, we'll see you."

……

Before Larch opened the door and went in, Shanks walked out of it first.

"I didn't expect you to come out so fast." Larch glanced into the room.

"Haha..." Shanks laughed dryly.

"I'll let you know when Ann wakes up." Larch patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Ah."

After sending Shanks away, Larch walked into the room and sat directly on the seat where Shanks was sitting just now. He stared at Ann for a while, and then said unhurriedly: "Since you are awake, don't worry about it." Pretending to be asleep."

After his words fell, An actually opened her eyes slowly. She turned to look at Larch, and smiled, "I really can't hide it from you."

"Hmph, who do you think I am?" Larch folded his arms around his chest and looked down at her, "Don't think Shanks didn't see it."

An smiled wryly, "But I don't want to be alone with him so soon! He himself said he would scold me... Besides, I haven't figured out how to say goodbye to him..."

Laqi sighed after hearing the words, "But you are still so calm after hearing the news that Ace is still alive, you have made progress."

"...Well." An looked away, and tears kept pouring out of her eyes in the next second, and she asked with a bit of sobs: "Ai, Ace...how is it now? ?”

"Ah, he's stabilized now, and Wilder is taking care of him."

"Woo...that's great...really, that's great—Ace is still alive, my brother...he's still alive!" Ann raised her hand to cover her eyes, and the tears flowed even more fiercely, " Although in the future... I won't be able to take risks with everyone again... But it's enough... I'm really happy these few years, and it's the happiest day of my life!"

"...idiot." Larch looked at her helplessly and distressed.

After waiting for Ann's mood to calm down a bit, Larch told the others the news of her waking up, and the temporary ward was immediately blocked again.The crew members squeezed desperately towards the door while crying, and finally they were yelled at by the unbearable Larch before restraining themselves.

Ann was talking to everyone while crying and laughing, and while chatting, she received news from Wilder that Ace had also woken up.

It's even more lively now.

That night, the long-lost banquet was held on the ship, and the members of the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red-haired Pirates reunited to celebrate. This was something that would have been unthinkable before, but it happened now.

Shanks looked at the two parties who were already in trouble together at this time, and couldn't help feeling emotional.

It's a pity that Ace and An could only rest honestly in the infirmary due to physical reasons, so the cheers coming from outside the door really made them feel itchy.

And because of Ann's strong request, Laqi nodded and moved her bed to Ace's side in desperation, and now the two of them almost seemed to be lying on the same bed.

"Really, that group of people are still so happy that the Lord is not here!" Ace looked at the closed door helplessly, and muttered with some dissatisfaction.

"We will celebrate again when we get better. Now let's recuperate honestly. If you move around, it's not a joke for Larch to get angry!" Ann held Ace's hand tightly, tilting his head tell him.

"..." Ace was silent for a while, then turned his head, and slowly showed an inexplicable smile at Ann: "I'm sorry."

"What?" Ann was at a loss.

Ace slowly grabbed Ann's hand and put it on his forehead, and sprinkled his warm breath on her wrist. He said softly, "I'm really... a very bad brother!" His voice was Trembling, as if using a lot of strength, "I actually... caused my sister to be injured because of me... Even, even lost her arm... I'm sorry."

Ann couldn't help laughing, she moved her body slightly, and leaned her forehead up, "What are you saying sorry...Aren't we family members? And..." She paused, and she couldn't help using a little force, " Fortunately... you are still alive."

……

More than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and both of them were almost recovered, but while everyone was cheering, they also realized that An would bid farewell to them soon.

Ace and the others left first. Although Whitebeard is gone, they have been brothers who have been fighting side by side for so many years and have established a deep relationship of trust. Now they are not separated just because they are separated.

When Ace was about to leave, Wilder was fidgeting, and told him repeatedly that his body was different now, and he had to pay attention at all times.

Although An was worried, she also knew very well that it was impossible for Ace to stop being a pirate like her.After all, her feelings for pirates all come from childhood pillow stories and the red-haired pirates, and her original intention is very simple, just to find Ace to experience her father's life by the way.But now these two original intentions are satisfied, although leaving her partner is very sad, generally speaking, she has no regrets.

After that, I will help Aunt Xia take care of that "ripped off BAR".

she thought.

Finally, they landed at the Chambord Islands, and when Ann was pulled off the boat by Bena, the group of big men couldn't help crying again.An didn't dare to look up until she landed on the land. She blinked away the tears from her eyes, and looked at the familiar faces standing by the boat that she had been with for several years...and the people she liked.

"You guys, drink less alcohol at parties when you're happy in the future, it's not good for your health...Although it's useless if I say it..." An raised her head and said to them with a smile.

"Larch, you were the most troublesome person along the way, but thanks to you, I'm in much better health now!"

"Xia Luke, thank you for taking good care of me all the time. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to integrate into everyone so quickly."

"Carrie, I'm sorry, I took advantage of you at the beginning and caused you to catch a cold. I used to have fun arguing with you, and it's thanks to you that I can relax."

"Qiu Xi, in fact, I always thought it would be great to have you as my elder brother, but I think Ace is the best!"

"Landa, I'm too stupid. I didn't learn a lot of things you taught me, but don't look at me like this, I'm pretty good!"

"Moss, I will definitely miss your cooking in the future. Moss' special fried rice is the best in the world!"

"Xibei, I'm sorry, I touched you at that time. Usually you look weak, but you are actually a great man!"

"Lu, next time you come, be sure to bring me a lot of delicious food! I like eating with you the most, no matter what it is, it will be very delicious!"

"Jesus Bu, I didn't have a chance to tell you, I saw Usopp, he is now Luffy's companion! And he is also a powerful sniper just like you!"

……

"Beckman, you are the smartest person I've ever met. You can't hide anything from you... If you smoke, it's better to smoke less."

Ann called "goodbye" one by one, and when she finally met Shanks' eyes, her steady voice finally couldn't hold back, "Shanks...Thank you for staying with me and letting me know everyone ...Thank you for always protecting me...So, no one will help you make hangover soup in the future, so just drink less...And...One, be sure to come and see me."

Shanks' eyes never left her from the beginning to the end, he held the hilt of the sword tightly, and only those around could see the joints that had turned pale from the force.

But his expression didn't change much, he just nodded solemnly, "I will definitely come."

How I wish I could have adventures with you again, how time passes slowly.

It's a pity that her current physical condition does not allow her to stand outside for so long, and she already felt a little unwell after saying goodbye one by one.But how can she say "goodbye"?

Probably understood Ann's situation, and after looking at each other for a while, Shanks turned around first, and gave orders to the other people on board: "Brothers, let's set sail!"

Although extremely reluctant, everyone knew that there was no point in staying any longer, so they turned around decisively like their captain.

Red Forth, set sail!

The author has something to say: end the flowering.

First of all, I'm sorry for the delay, the ending is really a grating little goblin, it has been changed many times.

And then thank the person who will see the end...

I want to say too much but I have nothing to say (laughing and crying)

Anyway, thank you【Dogeza
