Chapter 52: Burning the Fruit
"Grandpa?!"
Ace couldn't help but show fear on his face when he heard Karp's moment.
Obviously, Ace didn't want to meet Karp at all, and when they did, they would definitely be beaten.
"Luffy, isn't it that the Navy can't get mixed up, and plans to come back and be my deputy!!"
"I'm coming back to pull you into the gang and want you to be in the navy with me."
"So, we're enemies?"
"Probably?"
As soon as Luffy's words fell, a fireball hit him.
Luffy was the first to show a look of consternation.
"Burn the fruit?!"
"Ace you?!"
Luffy didn't expect that Ace would get the Burning Fruit so quickly and become a fruit powerhouse.
Seeing Luffy's surprised face, Ace couldn't help but say proudly: "Luffy, if you can't beat me, why don't you take my swing into account and be my deputy?!" ”
"See the real trick!!"
Soon, Luffy and Ace fought.
Luffy doesn't know how to arm color yet, and fighting against Ace, a natural fruit ability, is a great loss in itself.
The most important point is that while Luffy is growing, Ace is also growing.
"Muskets!!"
Ace's musket is somewhat similar to the high-pressure water gun, and is even slightly more powerful than the bullet gun.
But for Luffy, the impact of these fire bullets is a bit insufficient.
Luffy fended off Ace's musket with one air shield.
"Not bad!"
"Luffy, then try this trick?!"
"Fire Fist!!"
In this case, the person who carries it head-on is an idiot, and Luffy is naturally not an idiot.
But Ace's fire seems to have ignited the garbage here, and the fire spread fiercely.
"Stupid!!"
"Can this place play with such a big fire?!"
"If you don't dodge, will it turn out like this?!"
Ace blames Luffy, which is very much in line with Ace's character.
Luffy didn't bother to pay attention to Ace and used powerful gas to extinguish the fire.
Although Qi can extinguish the fire, Luffy also took a lot of effort to extinguish the fire.
"Luffy, it looks like you've gotten a lot stronger." Ace was like nothing.
"Come less!!"
······
Luffy never expected that Ace would be willing to go back with him to meet Karp.
Obviously, Ace still cares a lot about Cap's grandfather, but he wants to follow in the footsteps of his father Roger, or for his dreams.
"Ace?!"
When Karp saw Ace, his face was not very good-looking.
It was not difficult for Luffy to know from Karp's expression that Karp already knew that Ace had eaten a Devil Fruit, and it was also a natural burnt fruit.
Just when Luffy felt that the sky might fall at any time, Karp just gave Ace a fist and said, "It seems that you idiot hasn't woken up yet?" Spent all day dreaming of your boring pirates? Your future is destined to be in the navy, remember it for me?! ”
"Don't come to this set!!"
"Stinky old man!!"
Sure enough, as Luffy expected, if Karp and Ace could face each other, there would never be more than ten sentences, and then there would be a fist battle.
When Karp's fist passed through Ace's body, Ace said with a smug face: "Old fellow, how powerful is your fist?" Doesn't seem to be of any use to me? I advise you to retire and go back to retire as soon as possible? ”
"Really?!"
Karp, who is gearing up, comes up with an armed color, and Luffy knows that Ace is going to be unlucky.
Sure enough, under Karp's iron fist, Ace can only be said to be miserable, and there is no other way to describe it.
"Haha······"
"Haha······"
"Stinky boy, you dare to run away to be a pirate with this little ability, laugh at me?!"
Luffy couldn't stand Karp's laughter.
Luffy looked at Ace, who was halfway into the ground and kept twitching, and couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, will you be ruthless?" ”
"Luffy, if you dare to run away and be a pirate, grandpa's fist is guaranteed to be even more ruthless!!"
Luffy believed Karp's words.
On the way back, Luffy saw that Cap was silent, and even stopped his mouth, which used to be inseparable from snacks.
"Grandpa, are you worried about Ace?" Luffy asked.
"Hey~"
"You're on track now."
"Grandpa doesn't have to worry about it, but Ace, a bad boy, still wants to be a pirate, and he will definitely cause big trouble."
Luffy understands that the stronger the strength, the greater the trouble it will cause, and one day it will be out of control.
······
Marin Vando.
When Luffy returns to Marinfando, he sees Peach Rabbit wearing a navy uniform, and it is also the uniform of a general.
What surprised Luffy slightly.
As soon as Peach Rabbit enlisted in the army, he became a rear admiral.
"Congratulations, Sister Peach Rabbit!!"
"Congratulations, you're one step closer to the admiral's dream!!"
The careful Luffy still found that Peach Rabbit didn't seem to be happy at all, and it seemed that the achievement was a burden to her.
"Sister Peach Rabbit?"
"You don't seem happy?"
"Is your starting point higher than anyone else? Isn't it hard to become an admiral? Why can't you be happy? ”
It was impossible for Peach Rabbit to say that it was because he would never see Luffy again, but he found a good excuse for himself and said: "I have lived in Marin Fando for so many years, and I am really reluctant to leave at once!" ”
Luffy thought something was going on, "Sister Peach Rabbit, won't you be able to come back when you are promoted?" Remember your dream of being a general? Marin Fando who wants to protect justice? ”
Peach Rabbit is going to serve in the army, and she treats her this night, and at the same time, she only invites Luffy this night.
Luffy was the first person to see Peach Rabbit dressed as a lady.
Luffy didn't drink a drop of wine, but this peach rabbit was already drunk, and Luffy sent her back.
Luffy thought that Peach Rabbit would definitely not be able to get up the next day and delay her enlistment, but he didn't expect that when she knocked on Peach Rabbit's door, there was no echo at all, obviously she had already left.
Bootcamp.
Luffy began to feel that life here was boring and lacked any mood at all, or that Luffy was too strong and the training courses here were no longer suitable for him.
Smoker, who had just finished the training session, had a fierce face, waved his ten fingers at Luffy and said, "Luffy, are you interested in competing with me?!" ”
"I'm so upset right now!!"
"Don't bother me?!"
"Is Sister Peach Rabbit leaving?"
Smoker doesn't open any pot and which pot to mention, and his intention is to find fault.
"Luffy, Sister Peach Rabbit just left, and you were depressed, how can this work?" Tina said.
Luffy glanced up at Tina and said, "I just think that life in this training camp is too boring, or it's not for me anymore." ”
"Yes."
Luffy always managed to complete all the training sessions in an hour, more than an hour earlier than they did, which really didn't suit the life of this training camp.
"Why don't we go hunting?" Tina said.
"Hunting there?" Luffy still can't lift up a little spirit.
"New World?!"
"New World?!"
When Luffy heard about the new world, he couldn't help but show a look of shock, but he didn't expect Tina to be so bold and dare to run to the pirate paradise.
