"I'm sorry, Luffy!" Hearing Wang Luffy's last desperate cry, Ace felt a little heartache, but he didn't feel that he was wrong in doing so.

"I hope this incident can make you grow up as soon as possible, and I will save Sabo." Ace said firmly.

The entry of the Straw Hats was surprising, and the exit was equally unexpected, although many people were very surprised by Xiong's actions against the Straw Hats, but at the moment of the war, no one really asked where the Straw Hats had gone.

Because, the war continues.

"Emperor Yan!"

On the battlefield, Ace opened the Flame Emperor form again, forced back the red dog and yellow ape in front of him with one blow, and then flew straight towards the execution table.

"How could you break through so easily!" The yellow ape turned into a flash of light, instantly appeared in front of Ace, and then kicked Ace in the head.

"Get out of the way!" Ace punched out and hit the leg kicked by the yellow ape, and the impact of the collision between the two set off a hurricane, and the yellow ape was forced back again, but Ace was also blocked by him.

"Dog devours red lotus!"

Behind Ace, Akainu's terrifying attack hit his vest mercilessly.

"Flame Emperor Rising Sun Fist!"

Ace turned around and threw a sunburst punch, and Akainu dealt a hard blow, and the strong collision made the air between the two explode like a violent explosion, and then Ace used the power of this shock to accelerate again and rush towards the execution table.

Under Ace's determination to rush forward desperately, even two generals couldn't stop him.

"Oops, he rushed over, and now we really lost face." Yellow Ape looked at Ace who was close to the execution table and said shyly.

Akainu didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to pursue Ace, but just looked at Ace's back and said expressionlessly: "The war is not over, as long as we can take off his and Whitebeard's heads in the end, the lost face can be regained." ”

"Yes." The yellow ape nodded, then looked at Ace, who was already close to the execution table, and said: "That kid thinks that he can save his brother by rushing to the execution table, this is completely not taking Warring States Sang in his eyes, then he will suffer a big loss!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, since he has rushed there, he will leave it to the Marshal of the Warring States to deal with, let's go clean up those pirates on the Whitebeard ship." Akainu said coldly, then turned around and walked towards the square.

"Whitebeard......" Hearing this, the yellow ape glanced at Whitebeard, who had not made a move on the Moby Dick until now, touched his chin, and then followed.

"Ace!"

In front of the execution table, just as Ace was about to rush to the execution table, a rough voice suddenly came from below, hearing this voice, Ace's face changed suddenly, and he immediately stopped his figure, and then looked down.

There, stood a majestic white-haired old man, a vice admiral with the title of Hero of the Navy. D. Karp.

"Oops, it's that person, Ace is in danger!"

"That's, the legendary navy...... Hero Karp! ”

Seeing the upright figure, the pirates all showed frightened and worried looks.

"Lieutenant General Karp!!"

"Oh, the strongest guard, with Lieutenant General Karp, how reliable!"

The sight of the upright figure boosted the morale of the navy, believing that there was no more reliable guard than that man.

"Stinky old man, are you going to stop me too?" Ace looked at Karp who was standing below and asked in a deep voice.

"Old man...... He is also the guardian of justice! Karp roared and leaped to his feet, punching Ace.

"Stinky old man!" Ace took a stance, then punched Karp and shouted, "I don't care about justice, I just need to rescue Sabo, because he is my brother!" ”

Boom!

Ace's fist collided with Karp's iron fist, and the terrifying force almost overturned the execution table, and Ace's fist was even missing a piece by Karp's punch.

Even if Ace didn't use the purple flame on Karp, but the armed color domineering was also in a state of full opening, but he was still broken by Karp's punch, which shows how strong Karp's punch is.

"Get out of the way, stinky old man, I don't want to fight you!" Ace yelled at Karp.

"Don't be delusional, stinky boy, the old man is a sailor." Karp also yelled at Ace: "If you want to save your brother, there is no other way than to defeat the old man!" ”

"I don't want it!" Ace stared at Karp and said, "You are the most respected elder in my life, and I will not fight you." ”

Hearing Ace's words, Karp's body stiffened, but he still stiffened up and said: "Don't say stupid things, Ace, you are a pirate now, the old man is a navy, and we are enemies!" ”

"No, we won't be enemies!" Ace raised his arm, his fist lit with flames, and threw a punch at Karp, shouting, "Never!" ”

"Yan Jie, Fire Prison!"

Ace punches Karp, and the roaring flames form a prison that imprisons Karp inside.

"Do you think this kind of thing can trap the old man?" Karp looked at the surrounding flames with disdain, raised his fist directly, and said, "It's too naïve." ”

"Just stay inside, don't come up again, please...... Grandfather! ”

Just as Karp was about to punch to break the flame prison that trapped him, Ace's shout from the flames made his body stiffen, and the scenes of Ace's growth when he was a child suddenly appeared in his mind, and tears flowed involuntarily.

"Old man...... Are you still old after all? Karp lowered his fist, but a kind smile appeared on his face.

Karp swings his fist because he carries decades of faith on his back, and that belief is called 'justice'.

Now he chooses to put down his fist because of another more important thing, that thing, called 'family affection'.

"It seems that the old man is no longer qualified to be a qualified sailor." Karp smiled lonely, and then sat down directly in the flame prison set up by Ace.

"Karp, even you, can't you avoid being tied up by your family?" On the execution table, seeing that Karp did not come out of the flame cage, Sengoku also understood his choice.

"Thank you, old man!" Seeing that Karp did not come out of the cage he had left behind, Ace couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then looked up at the execution table above.

Whether it was Ace or Sengoku, they all knew that it was impossible for the flames in that area to trap Karp, and it was Ace's grandfather who made him choose to stay inside.

Now, there is only the last and strongest obstacle in front of him - the Marshal of the Navy Headquarters, the Warring States of the Buddha!

Looking at the man who was standing on the execution table and looking at him condescendingly at this time, Ace whispered: "As long as you can defeat him, you can get out of Sabo!" ”
