Chapter 245: Ace, the Bearer Hero
Two years.
Maud and Sunny have their own variations.
The only thing that hasn't changed may be Sunny and Perona's equal breasts.
The two reunited after a long absence, and they had endless words.
But Betty was clearly not going to let them talk to themselves.
"Sonny, we're running out for time."
A simple and rude reminder directly cut off Sunny Nie's interest.
"Hmm."
Sunny stopped talking, suppressed the joy churning in her heart, and nodded her head at Betty.
Although the plan to overthrow Alabastan has changed, as Betty said, they are running out of time.
Maud glanced at Betty, slightly reining in her joy at seeing Sonny.
The current environment is really not suitable for them to reminisce.
After stopping Maud and Sonny's reminiscences, Betty crossed her waist with one hand, and the placket of the small shoulder shifted to the left, and a faint ray of scenery leaking out of the plump place could be seen.
But she didn't mind at all, maintaining a cross-waisted movement, and looked straight at the dragon not far away.
"People have seen it too, isn't it time to go?"
Facing the leader of the revolutionary army, this upright woman has no consciousness as a subordinate.
The dragon had long been accustomed to Betty's temperament, and did not care about the other party's attitude, but nodded, indicating that he knew.
Betty's words made Maud understand the dragon's motives for stopping here.
To meet someone?
It's probably Luffy......
Maud made up his mind.
Sunny looked up at Maude and whispered, "It's time for me to go." ”
"Leaving Alabastan, or?"
When Maude heard this, he didn't have any scruples, and directly asked a question related to the movement.
"Ahem."
An older male member of the Revolutionary Army pretended to cough a few times, in order to remind Sunny not to talk nonsense because of personal feelings.
Hearing the reminder from her colleagues, Sunny was speechless.
In terms of identity and position, she cannot reveal the movements of the team.
"We will go to Albana to see the country with our own eyes...... The results to come. ”
The dragon quietly came to Sunny's side, but answered Maude's question for Sunny.
Seeing that the dragon revealed the team's next movement so casually, Betty frowned, but didn't say anything after all.
No way
Who asked the person to answer this question to be her immediate boss?
It's just that the man in front of him has what kind of magic power can attract the attention of so many colleagues.
Even the dragon began to look at the man.
Betty glanced at Maude with a scrutinizing gaze.
Handsome is really handsome.
But that's about it.
Betty thought to herself.
"Albana......"
Ignoring Betty's scrutinizing gaze, Maude's eyes froze slightly.
It was the royal capital of Alabastan and the main target of the rebels' assault.
And what the dragon says is a witness......
Even the people who inspired the fruit ability were brought over, did they really not plan to interfere, but just watched from the outside?
In other words, did the revolutionary army also participate in the Alabastan incident in the original book?
Maude's mind was together, and it fell quickly.
Whatever role the Revolutionary Army wanted to play in this civil strife, and what did it have to do with him?
As long as it doesn't interfere with what he's going to do next.
Maude didn't think much about it, first stared at the dragon for a moment, then looked at Sunny and said softly, "Sunny ny, stay safe." ”
"Hmm."
Sunny nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said weakly: "By the way, Maude, you gave me the transparent fruit...... I gave Saab to eat. ”
"Huh?"
Maud was surprised to hear this.
In my mind, the image of Sabo eating the roasted fruit in Dressrosa flashed away.
Originally, it was to give Sunny more self-protection ability, so he gave Sunny the transparent fruit.
Unexpectedly, it made Sabo eat the transparent fruit.
The members of the Revolutionary Army present, including Betty, all looked at Maude in surprise.
Most of the stalwarts of the Revolutionary Army knew that Sabo had eaten the Transparent Fruit, but only a few people such as Kerra knew the origin of the Transparent Fruit.
Now I hear Sunny say that......
It turns out that the transparent fruit that Sabo ate was given to Sunny by Maude?
Sunny looked at Maude with a surprised look and asked cautiously, "Maude, would you mind?" ”
"No, it won't."
Maud shook her head, but her expression grew serious.
"It's just that there aren't many fruits like transparent fruits that tend to be functional and can avoid most frontal dangers, Sanny, I hope you can think more about yourself the next time you make a decision."
"Hmm."
Sunny kept her head down, like a child who had made a mistake.
But she could easily feel the concern from Maude, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but glow with joy.
Maud patted Sunny on the head, and suddenly thought of the Door Fruit Ability in CP9.
"After a while, I'll find you another Devil Fruit with similar abilities and properties."
"No need."
Sunny refused without even thinking about it.
Sonny's refusal was expected by Maud.
He just smiled and didn't say anything more.
When the dust settles on some necessary things, he will inevitably go and take the fruit of the door.
As for the transparent fruit being eaten by Sabo, it is also a result that he can accept.
There are some kindnesses that are worth remembering for a lifetime.
Whether it's Sunsol or Sabo, who saved his life......
Betty and the rest of the revolutionary army looked at Maude in amazement.
You must know that if you only talk about [Phase], for the [Great Cause] of the Revolutionary Army, the Transparent Fruit is an extremely rare Devil Fruit.
It was not easy to get one, but Maud actually had to find another Devil Fruit with similar abilities and properties.
This kind of thing is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, right?
But listening to Maude's tone of voice, it seems that there is no difficulty.
But they still find it very convincing.
After all, the revolutionary army that came here did not linger long, and under the watchful eyes of Maude, they formed a group in the direction of Albana.
A team of dozens of people, walking under the scorching sun.
After walking away, Betty quickly glanced back at Sunny who was walking in the middle of the group.
"Dragon, what do I think...... You've been waiting here for most of the day, not to see Maude in person, but to see Maude with Sonny. ”
"Don't think about it."
The dragon looked ahead, unwilling to say more.
But Betty's personality was so good that she didn't go along with her wishes, but picked up a cigarette and said firmly: "It seems that I guessed right." ”
“……”
The dragon was silent.
But there are times when silence equates to acquiescence.
.......
The desolate land of Juba.
As the dragon departed, the wind and sand stopped.
As soon as Maud returned, he saw an older, emaciated old man in the ranks.
And hearing Luffy muttering loudly about how unreasonable the sudden sandstorm was, Vivi on the side looked puzzled.
Ace glanced thoughtfully at Maude, who had been away for a while before returning.
It's getting late.
Today is destined to be spent in Jubas.
A few days later.
Pika's men who had come to Alabastan with him finally found Pika's body in the Red Rock Scatter.
"Pika-sama actually ......"
The moment they saw Pika's corpse, the group of men were shocked on the spot and were speechless for a long time.
And then
They soon noticed that the decorated corpse of Picana, which had been evaporated, contained extensive burns in addition to conspicuous knife wounds.
Not only that, but even the red rocks scattered around also left very clear traces of fire.
Such traces are obviously not caused by ordinary flames.
Unless it's ...... Capable one!
"What's going on?"
They knew that the Straw Hats had the sword-wielding Sauron and the sniper Usopp, but there would never be anyone who could wield fire.
How could they know that the extensive burns on Pika's body were actually whipped by the aftermath of the battle between Maud and Ace.
And their job is to pass on all the discoveries, including Pica's death, back to Dressrosa.
After learning of Pica's death, Doflamingo and others in the palace of the royal capital of Dressrosa were shocked.
In their understanding, they never thought that the Straw Hats would be able to kill Pika.
soon
Fire Fist Ace appeared in Rape Flower City some time ago, and the information that he had eaten several overlord meals was sent to Doflamingo.
This information is naturally linked to the burns on Pika's corpse and the large area of burn marks left on the surrounding rocks.
"Fire Fist Ace...... Whitebeard's second team captain...... Why is it ......!!! ”
Doflamingo's green muscles are exposed, and his fierce aura shines through his body, and he looks ruthless in choosing people to devour.
Meanwhile.
Ace, who followed the Straw Hats to the rain in Alabastan, sneezed several times inexplicably.
"Ace, do you have a cold? Let Chopper take a look at it, he's a great doctor! ”
Seeing that Ace kept sneezing, Luffy, a mental guy who had recovered well from his injuries, asked with concern for the first time.
On the side, Chopper, who heard Luffy's praise, couldn't help but turn into a seaweed and twist around.
Ace, who didn't know that he had a black cauldron on his back, waved his hand and signaled that he didn't need to.
He also had to check the Blackbeard Pirates' presence in Alabastan.
Immediately, he acted resolutely, and as soon as his front foot reached the rain, his back foot was separated from Luffy.
