"Welcome Lieutenant General Karp"

The terrifying Neptune Realm, a large undersea prison buried deep in the sea, known as the prison of the world's hell. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A large group of naval soldiers, led by the Grand Undersea Warden Magellan and Deputy Warden Hannibal, came out to greet Vice Admiral Karp.

On the dog-headed warship, Karp was followed by Kirby and Hrummeber, who had become lieutenants, and came to Magellan in front of the welcoming navy.

Facing Lieutenant General Karp, Magellan respectfully said: "Lieutenant General Karp, with the permission of the Marshal of the Warring States, you can meet Fire Fist Ace alone, we have prepared the room."

A high-ranking naval officer who has gone through the Age of Discovery, but he is a witness to the Karp era, when Karp was a legend in the navy, and countless pirate nightmares.

It is precisely because of the existence of a strong man like Karp that the navy can stand tall in the dark age of the Great Voyage and protect the justice of the navy, which is the treatment that Karp should accept.

Nodding, Karp stepped into the big prison, "No need, I'm just saying something, I don't need any special room, let's go straight to the sixth floor."

As Karp entered, Magellan and the other undersea prisons were in charge, and then walked into the prison, leaving a team of navies to guard outside.

Through the elevator, Karp walked all the way, without seeing the usual smile on his face, only a serious face.

The elevator door opened, Karp stepped out, Magellan and the others did not follow out, everyone knew about the relationship between Lieutenant General Karp and Fire Fist Ace, this was a rare time for their grandfather and grandson to talk.

Stepping into the sixth floor, which is also the most important layer of the entire undersea prison, the silence here is terrifying compared to the five floors above.

Because the people who are imprisoned here are extremely dangerous for the Navy Headquarters, arresting these people back then wasted a lot of the Navy's strength.

Normally, no one on the sixth floor had come to the sixth floor except for the prison guards who delivered food, and many of the inmates had been in this dark cell for decades.

The sound of steady footsteps sounded throughout the sixth layer of the Great Undersea Prison, and many strong people on the sixth floor who closed their eyes opened their eyes at that moment.

It's not a strange thing for someone to arrive, after all, there are people delivering food here every day, but they can all feel that the person who arrives is a strong person.

The aura of this strong man does not belong to Magellan, but the aura he exudes is much stronger than Magellan.

"Karp, you old guy isn't dead yet!"

Walking through the long hallway, passing by the door of a cell, suddenly an emanating strange aura emanated from it, and a terrifying darkness mixed with it.

Hearing the shouting to himself, Karp suddenly stopped, squinted his eyes like in a cell, and said lightly: "Red Earl, you guy hasn't died in the big prison yet, how can I die."

I saw that a man in the cell was wearing a red cloak, and there were two clear blood-like marks on his face, which must have been a strong man who dominated the great voyage back then.

Unfortunately, he was still caught by the navy, and the two hard sea tower stone chains were tightly fastened to the shoulders of the red earl.

Slowly opening his eyes, the red earl said: "Karp, I didn't expect that I would still see you, an old fellow, that battle you sent me to the big prison and let me stay in it for more than ten years."

Looking away from the red earl, Karp stepped out and said, "This era has changed, it is best for you to continue to stay here."

It's not just the Red Earl, along the way, Karp has at least met a lot of powerful pirates who woke up and greeted Karp.

Most of them were defeated by Karp and sent to prison, where they remain until now, and some of them have a lot of hatred with Karp.

Ignoring these people, Karp went directly to a cell, stopped his progress, and looked at the figure in the cell, which was tightly imprisoned on the ground by the chains of the sea tower.

Sensing that someone was coming, the figure did not raise his head, but lowered his head and said, "Stinky old man, you are here!"

The sixth layer of silence was noisy because of Karp's arrival, how could the figure not know about Karp's arrival, and at the same time understand that Karp came here to find himself.

"Ace, you stinky boy!" Karp scolded as he always looked at the decadent figure in the cell.

It's just that there is no anger and teaching in the words, there is only a kind of helplessness and tiredness.

Raising his head, Ace's haggard cheeks looked at Karp, and said with a faint smile: "Stinky old man, you are still the same as always, and you will scold us as soon as you open your mouth."

"Just like back then, the first thing Luffy and I heard every time was that you scolded me for being a stinky boy, and then beat the two of us up and asked us to become navy, but we both became pirates."

Speaking of Luffy, Ace showed a heartfelt smile on his face, "I heard that Luffy not only solved Klockdahl, but also defeated Luqi in CP9, and that trouble-making kid has slowly become famous."

"Ace, don't you really know?" Karp's silent voice sounded, indeed a question, "Luffy is the same as you, the more famous you are, the easier it is to be topped by the navy, maybe one day, Luffy will be like you."

Shaking his head, Ace said in a firm tone: "No, Luffy is the man who became the king of the pirates, how could he be caught by the navy."

"Do you know, old man, that both of us went to sea with the goal of becoming pirates, but our starting points were different."

"Luffy wants to be the freest existence on this sea, experiencing all kinds of interesting adventures, and I want to follow the path of that man, I want to see if there is really a reason for him to abandon his family on that road?"

Speaking of that man, Ace no longer has the excitement and anger that he easily showed when he was young, as well as hatred, but only calm.

Pursing his lips, Karp asked, "Finally, did you find the answer you need?"

"No", lowering his head, Ace did not find the answer when he went to sea back then, but the words changed suddenly, "However, I found a real family affection, a feeling that allows me to experience family."

"Affection?" whispered softly, Karp had a feeling that he always understood.

For this grandson, Karp has always understood in his heart that when he heard countless people around him tell him that his father was a big villain since he was a child, and Ace, who was considered by the village to be the culprit who killed his own mother, what he lacked in his heart was a bit of real family affection.

After a pause, Ace continued: "Daddy gave me, that man never gave me responsibilities and things, for me I only have one daddy".

At this time, Karp did not speak, but opened the cell door, walked in, came to Ace, looked down at Ace, raised his palm and slapped it mercilessly.

Syllable!

The loud slap echoed throughout the cell, looking at Ace with blood on the corner of his mouth, Karp scolded angrily: "Do you know? Twenty years ago, also in the upper cell, the only thing that man asked me to do was to let me help you be born into this world safely."

"Really?" Ace let out a snort of disdain, looked up at Karp, and exclaimed excitedly, "But where was that man when I was born, where was that man when my mother died, when I could only watch countless people my age return home, and I didn't even have a basic home, where was he?"

As if after venting the anger in his heart, Ace's tone slowly relaxed, "Actually, there are times when I envy Luffy, although he doesn't know who his parents are, but he has countless people in Windmill Village who care about him."

Hearing this, Karp's originally angry slap no longer had the strength to fight again.

Ay!

With a deep sigh, Karp sat down cross-legged and said slowly, "You know, when your mother endured twenty months to avoid being hunted by the navy, she gave birth to you."

"During that time, I often secretly observed your mother, who was a terrible woman and mother, and it was a miracle that she postponed your birth for ten months."

"Back then, when she handed you over to me, in addition to asking me to take care of you, she also asked me to let you understand that he is a real father!

Hearing this, the excited Ace quieted down, was silent for a long time, shook his head and said: "Stinky old man, you did nothing wrong, you did a good job, but I only have one father, and that is Whitebeard!"

Silence, all of a sudden, there was an eerie silence in the cell, and neither of them spoke, so they were silent.

Until finally Karp broke out this silence, clenching his fists, his body trembling slightly, even a man like Karp would tremble.

You can imagine how Karp struggled in his heart at this time, "Why? Ace, why don't you say you can just do what I say and become a pirate?"

Looking at the old man who was trembling in front of him, Ace could vaguely see a glimmer of light appear in the corner of the old man's eyes, struggle, remorse, and pain, all of which appeared on the old man's face that had experienced countless years of vicissitudes.

Ace, at this time, suddenly understood how to struggle with the choice faced by the old man in front of him, on the one hand, his grandson, and on the other hand, the naval justice and belief that he insisted on, why should this old man who should rest bear it.

"Ace, you know, there are countless people in this world who are worried about you, and now that you are caught by the navy, how many people's minds will be affected, and how many will embark on the road to rescue you without hesitation."

"Your mother used her life to let you land in this world, Lin Tian told me that he stopped you in Alabastan, why don't you cherish your life, why do you want to go."

For more than ten years, Ace felt that it was the first time that he looked at Karp so closely and so quietly, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but sour.

Ace, propped up his hands from the ground, slowly knelt down, and kowtowed his head to Karp, who was sitting in front of him.

"I'm sorry... Grandpa!" (To be continued.) )
