Why is Ace always talking to himself?

This group of ragged villagers approached the barbecue at the campfire cautiously. These villagers were pale and thin, and their eyes revealed hunger and fear.

Ace looked at them, and a feeling of pity surged in his heart. He turned to look at his companions and said, "These people are too pitiful, let's share some of our food with them."

The companions hesitated a little. After all, in this unknown land, food is the key to survival. But seeing Ace's firm eyes, they nodded in agreement.

Ace walked towards the villagers and said with a smile: "Friends, we still have some food here, all for you, don't be polite." The villagers were stunned at first, and then their eyes were full of surprise and gratitude.

Although they were hungry, their simple feelings were still there. They immediately knelt down and spoke words of gratitude.

Villager A: "Thank you, benefactor, thank you so much"

Villager B: "Dad, we have something to eat"

Villager C: "Erdan, thank the benefactor"

Ace quickly helped them up and said, "Don't do this, it's not easy for everyone. The meat is cooked, share it and eat slowly."

While distributing food, Ace learned that the villagers here have been oppressed and exploited for a long time, living in poverty and often not having enough food.

Ace clenched his fists and secretly vowed in his heart that he must do something for these villagers.

As night fell, the villagers invited Ace and others to rest in their village. Ace readily agreed and followed the villagers to a simple village with most of the food.

The houses in the village were dilapidated, and Ace looked at all this with mixed feelings.

He and his companions sat around the campfire, communicating with the village chief, who told them about their suffering.

Ace: "Where is this place? What happened here? I didn't see any children in the crowd just now. Are they all dead?"

Village Chief: "Hey, benefactor, listen to me slowly. The place you are in, Kuri, is located on the main island of Wano Country. It is one of the six regions of Wano Country. Kuri used to be a lawless area. After the reform of Kozuki Oden, it once became a paradise. But later, Kozuki Oden was killed by bad guys. It is said that the entire Wano Country is now controlled by Kurozumi Orochi with the help of pirate forces. Now Kuri is in chaos again. The little ones in our village are... The children were also captured by pirates. "

Ai Ye thought: "Kuri in Wano Country? Why didn't I see him when I watched the anime of One Piece before? It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, he was still alive before the war. He shouldn't run into the other four emperors. Now the key is Blackbeard. If the plot doesn't change, Ace still becomes Whitebeard's son, then I must make him be careful of Blackbeard. As long as Blackbeard is gone, there will be no war on the top, but Mrs. Shirley's language, oh, it's really a headache, I have to sort it out."

While the village chief was talking, a gurgling sound came into Ace's ears. After careful identification, Ace found that it was coming from a broken door panel in the corner of the wall. Ace immediately walked over and removed the door panel.

A petite, with short black hair, round face, big eyes, curled up and shivered, showing a scared expression.

Ace: "Village Chief, do you know this kid?"

Village Chief: "No, maybe she's from another village?"

Ace: "Who are you? Why are you here alone? Do you want to eat some food?"

Xiaoyu saw that these strangers had no ill intentions, and her stomach made another rumbling sound, so she slowly approached. Ace noticed the little girl approaching cautiously and smiled warmly.

Xiaoyu asked timidly, "Who are you? Why are you here? Are you here to catch me?" Ace squatted down and answered gently, "My name is Ace, we are pirates, but don't be afraid, little girl, we won't catch you, come and eat something."

Ace handed a string of grilled fish to Xiaoyu, who picked up the grilled fish and ate it in big mouthfuls. Ace chatted with Xiaoyu in a casual manner.

They chatted like this, Xiaoyu gradually let down her guard, and Ace was also attracted by this smart and cute little girl.

Ace: "By the way, what's your name, and why are you hiding there?"

Tama: "My name is Tama. All the children in our village were captured by pirates, and I escaped by myself."

Ace: "Do you know where they were captured?"

Tama: "When I was hiding, I happened to hear the conversation of the pirates. They said they were going to some ghost island, but I don't know where it is."

Ace: "Village head, do you know where the ghost island is?"

Village head: "It's an isolated island in the southwest, very close to Wano Country."

Ace: "Okay, my crew and I will go and take a look, can you rescue them?"

Xiaoyu: "Big brother Ace, you have to be careful, Xiaoyu will wait for you to come back here"

After that, Ace led the crew to board Lab and prepare to sneak into Onigashima.
