General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 292 Fire Fist Ace
"Ahem! It hurts! This fist?"

In the center of the raging fire wave, Ace covered his cheek and coughed several times, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Wisps of flames flowed from the surroundings, condensing his body bit by bit.

Ace raised his head and looked at Rorschach floating down from the sky, his expression became a little ugly.

"What's your relationship with the old man?"

Rorschach squeezed his fist covered in Deep Blue's domineering energy, "He is, well, one of my mentors."

"Is he his disciple? No wonder the fist hurts as much as him."

Ace slowly stood up from the large sunken pit and looked at Rorschach.

"Do you have to take action against me?"

"uncertain."

"what?"

Rorschach's words made Ace slightly stunned.

"As long as you don't stop being a pirate and go back to Windmill Village, or if you come back to the Navy Headquarters with me and become a navy, I can look on the face of the old man and be lenient with you.

If you can become a navy, he will be very happy. "

Rorschach looked at Ace, and at the same time, he was covering the entire Demon Valley Town with his own domineering power, controlling the lightning in the sky, and targeting the fleeing pirates in the city.

On the other side of the Qilin on the sea, the movements of Yunque and others were also part of his perception.

Although the battle there was fierce, there was not much danger to them.

Apart from Ace and Bagis, there are no particularly powerful pirates in Magic Valley Town.

After destroying a large number of pirate ships docked at the port of Demon Valley Town, the soldiers began to exterminate the pirates in an orderly manner.

After the battle in Spring Queen City, their cooperation became even more tacit.

"I'm sorry, I won't join the navy. If you insist on taking action against me, then go ahead! Let me see how good the naval disciples taught by the old man are."

Ace clenched his hands into fists and assumed a fighting stance.

Luo Xia was not in a hurry to take action, but just stared at him with twinkling eyes.

That look made Ace feel a little nervous.

"Hey! Navy, what are you looking at?"

"Of course I'm looking at you. Can you tell me why you are so determined to become a pirate? Don't you know the fate of your unreliable father?"

"You! That old man, did you even tell you this?" Ace's eyes were filled with fire, and blazing fire suddenly appeared on his fists, showing that he was extremely uneasy in his heart.

Rorschach did not answer, but quietly looked at Ace who was clenching his fists, and continued:
“To be honest, I don’t really like the idea that father pays his debts to his sons.

But Old Man Garp was soft-hearted and kind-hearted when he saved you, but he was burdened with great inner condemnation for this.

Do you know how many innocent pregnant women and babies were implicated in trying to catch you, the bloodline of the Pirate King, on Batelila Island in the South China Sea? "

"That's not a good thing your world government and navy have done!"

Ace roared angrily, thick blood vessels bulged on his forehead, his eyes were bloodshot, and he punched Rorschach violently, creating a huge fireball.

The surging fire waves were like a tsunami of flames, roaring towards Luo Xia's tiny body.

Crackling!

Thick strands of thunder and lightning emerged from Rorschach's body, turning into a ball of sizzling thunderballs in front of him, and shot towards the incoming fireball.

A ball of orange-red fire and a ball of silver-white thunderball collided in the air.

boom!
A terrifying explosion instantly exploded on the street between the two of them.

A huge shock wave swept across all directions, and the houses and buildings on both sides of the street collapsed like paper and became pulpy.

For a moment, the entire Demon Valley Town was shaking, and smoke and dust billowed up in the city.

The surging impact forced Ace to retreat tens of meters back, and jumped far to the top of a house to look at the center of the explosion.

But Rorschach's voice came from his right side again, making Ace's body tense up instantly.

He turned around and saw Luo Xia Shiran standing on the roof more than ten meters away, not knowing when he came here.

“I know that our navy did something wrong in this matter.

But, at least for the sake of those innocent pregnant women and babies who died unjustly, I personally think it would be too cruel for you to follow your father's path and go to sea to become a pirate? "

"Furthermore, have you ever thought about why your father entrusted you to the old man in the first place?
Is it just for your safety?He is dead, but the Roger Pirates, which was once powerful, was not completely destroyed.

Pluto Rayleigh is still alive and well, and red-haired Shanks has become the Yonko who suppresses one side.

Isn't it more convenient for you to follow any of them casually than to gamble on the conscience of a naval hero who has spent his life fighting for justice? "

Rorschach's calm words made Ace, who was filled with rage, freeze in place as if struck by lightning.

He opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

Yes, why would Roger entrust himself, a descendant of pirates, to a naval hero?

Before he was arrested and imprisoned, he actually knew that his wife was pregnant on Batelila Island.

He had the time and opportunity to entrust his wife and children to his right-hand men, Rayleigh and Jabba, as well as the rest of the Roger Pirates.

With the strength of the One Piece team, even without the captain, it is no less than a royal team, or even stronger.

They have the strength to protect Ace.

Whitebeard was also his best friend who had fought with him all his life. If Roger asked him to protect his son and wife, would Whitebeard refuse?
But Roger didn't do that, and instead chose to bet on Garp's kindness.

This led to a series of tragedies that later occurred on Badelila Island.

If Roger had not done that and entrusted Ace to Rayleigh or Whitebeard, would his wife Lujiu have still been pregnant for twenty months, and in the end she only had time to take a look at her son before she died?

Karp will not experience the unspeakable heartache.

The innocent pregnant women on Batelila Island will not die either.

Of course, Rorschach couldn't know what Roger was thinking at that time.

But he had reason to guess that Roger might not have wanted his son to become a navy.

The reason for this may be that after visiting Lovedrew, he knew that his child would not be the Joey Boy who saved the world, so he did not want Ace to become a pirate like him.

Looking at Ace who was silent, Rorschach sighed inwardly.

Ace now also has a bounty on his head from the Navy.

And the reward amount is as high as [-] million Baileys!
The rise was extremely rapid, and he was the most anticipated pirate supernova in 1517.

The origin of his bounty is due to his natural ability to burn fruits, and his defeat in the paradise of a Navy Headquarters Vice Admiral Doro who did not hesitate to set fire to sacrifice innocent civilians in order to eliminate pirates.

[Note: This plot is not made up by me. It is the content of Ace’s official novel designed by Oda himself. In the novel, Ace also awakens armed Haki. 】

Rorschach would not say that Ace is not guilty now.

After all, it is true that he attacked the navy.

But judging from the facts, he is not worthy of death yet.

If he could be made to return from his lost ways and give up becoming a pirate, it might make the old man Garp feel more at ease.

After a long silence, Ace took a deep breath, as if he had made some kind of determination, and looked towards Rorschach again.

This time, there was no anger in his eyes and he looked calm.

"It seems that the old man really values ​​you. Rorschach? I remember this name."

Fire began to appear on his fists, and he looked at Rorschach and said seriously:
"I am Portcas D. Ace, and I will never give up on becoming a pirate.

Because pirates are free!
The answer I am looking for is not in the navy, not in the world government, but in the sea, in the adventure of freedom.

Tell the old man that I have failed him.Maybe one day I will die because of this decision, but..."

"I won't regret it!"

"Come on! Navy Rorschach! Fight with me! Use the pirate's method to win and lose. If you win, I will deal with it at your disposal. If I win, you can't stop me from going to sea!"

Boiling flames began to emerge from all parts of Ace's body, causing the air temperature in Magic Valley Town to rise steadily, and the air seemed to be burning.

"It's freedom, and it's the answer?" Luo Xia pressed her eyebrows, "My head hurts as soon as I hear the word answer."

Electric light flashed across his body, his shiny black military boots crushed the gravel on the ground, and he began to take steps.

"In that case, then I will catch you in front of the old man."

"Fist bone!"

"fire punch!"
