Chapter 435: Ice and Fire
"Ah, it's a tavern!"
The man in the straw hat grinned and pointed to a tavern that suddenly appeared around the corner, "Usopp, let's go in and have a look!" There will definitely be news of the empty island. ”
There was a sense of negotiation in this sentence, but the person who said this sentence did not mean such a discussion at all, and strode forward with his own thoughts, and pushed open the door of the bar.
"I knew,"
The man with the long nose burst into tears, and his usually upturned nose was now drooping, and those who followed his heart were also unable to lift their spirits.
"Luffy, wait for me!"
Usopp has already accepted his fate, in this place full of pirates, it is better to follow behind his own captain than to stay alone in a relatively safe place, after all, the ghost knows if the so-called safe place is really safe, but it is very safe to follow Luffy's back.
"Squeak!"
The wooden door was gently pushed open, and the noisy sound was transmitted instantly, and the man with the straw hat on his head looked around curiously and strode into the tavern, and some men with long noses followed him cautiously.
"Ah~ this is the Pirate Tavern!"
The Straw Hat grinned and looked very excited, "It's really all pirates!" ”
"What, there's a little ghost!"
The pirates in the hotel who were bragging and farting didn't pay much attention to it, these days, anyone can go to sea, and there are as many pirates as there are on the sea like the straw hat.
The Straw Hat swaggered and casually walked to the bar and sat down, and a frightened Usopp sat down next to him with his right hand.
"Hey, uncle,"
Luffy said.
"Huh? Just ask? ”
Usopp on the side was a little dumbfounded, "Shouldn't it be secretive?" ”
"Yes, guest?"
The bar owner, who was wiping glasses, looked up.
"I'm hungry, do I have anything to eat?"
Snapping his nostrils, the straw hat said.
"That's it!"
The long nose, bulging eyes, and sharp teeth in the mouth are common skills of the Straw Hat Pirates, usually triggered by the behavior of their captain off the line.
"And so it turned out! Didn't you come to find out what to do? Sure enough, I came to eat! Didn't you eat it before you got off the boat? ”
"But,"
Luffy scratched his head, looking a little aggrieved, "I'm really hungry!" ”
"Da!"
"Whew-"
The tavern owner leisurely spat out a smoke ring, put a cherry pie and a glass of wine in front of Luffy, and said with a smile, "Isn't it the easiest truth to eat since you're hungry?" Men on the sea, if you want to do it, you have to do it! ”
"Hee-hee-hee!"
With a smile on his face, Straw Hat picked up the cherry pie in front of him and stuffed it into his mouth, "The boss is a good person!" ”
"Disgust!!"
But after blinking, the bright smile on the straw hat's face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a disgusting expression that wanted to vomit, "Wow!!" It's so unpalatable!! ”
"Hey, no matter how bad it is,"
The boss glared at the dead fish and flicked the cigarette ash, "It's better to save some face for me!" ”
"Unpalatable?"
Usopp was already stunned, it was the first time he had seen something Luffy say was unpalatable, was such a thing really possible?
"It's so unpalatable!"
Luffy stuck out his tongue and his face darkened,
"Knock knock!"
He picked up the wine glass next to him and poured two sips of wine into his mouth, and then, for a while, the man had a happy smile on his face.
"Yay~"
"Da!"
After drinking the wine in the cup in one go, the straw hat said excitedly, "It's delicious!" Hey, boss, your wine is super delicious! ”
"Really?"
The boss tugged at the corners of his mouth, his cherry pie and homemade wine have been sold for a long time, the cherry pie has never been evaluated as unpalatable, the wine has never been said to be super delicious, and the two things that are also decent have received two completely different evaluations, which can be said to be very interesting.
"It's good if the guests are happy!"
"Hee-hee!"
Luffy smiled and handed over the cup, "One more glass!" ”
"Okay!"
Anyway, as long as it can be sold, the boss poured another glass of wine for the straw hat.
"Yes, that's right!"
The Straw Hat took another sip of wine, then suddenly remembered something, and slapped his hands on the counter, "Boss, do you know Sky Island?" ”
"I just remembered it!"
Usopp complained silently.
"Sky Island,"
The boss didn't seem to care too much, "Is it another one who wants to land on the Sky Island?" ”
"Huh?"
The Straw Hat blinked.
----------------
Time went back a little, about a day after the Straw Hats landed on Gaya Island, on an unnamed desert island quite far from Gaya Island, and the man named Ace sat leisurely under a big tree.
"Arara, aren't you running?"
The voices of some lazy men came from the side, and the tall men walked over step by step.
"There's no need to run anymore,"
Ace stood up, and there was no fear on his face, even if the man standing in front of him was the strongest army in the world, the apex of the navy, and one of the three admirals who would make the pirates fear just by his name, Fire Fist Ace, fearless.
If you feel desperate and scared just because the other party is strong, then what kind of pirate are you doing? Why else do you want to run the seas? Why am I afraid of you when you are stronger than me? Why should you be scared if you can't win?
Ace is not a man of that level, not to mention, behind him, he still bears the name of that man.
"Well, what luck!"
The curly-haired male pheasant scratched his curly black hair, and his lazy pre-tuning couldn't hear any change in mood, "I was going to wipe out the Straw Hats, but I actually met an even more amazing guy!" No one could have imagined that the second captain of the Whitebeard Pirates would return to Paradise! ”
"Is the target really Luffy?"
Ace had a big smile on his face, "That's really lucky!" What a blessing! Able to lure you away from him! ”
"Eh, really?"
The pheasant seemed to be really sleepy and sat cross-legged on the ground, "Is it to protect Straw Hat Luffy?" ”
"Ah, because, I am,"
Ace smiled, "Brother! ”
"Arara, what amazing news!"
Pheasant's eyes widened, "The world will be stupid if the news gets out, right?" Such an amazing brother! Did the world's most sinful bloodline come together spontaneously? ”
"What?"
Ace subconsciously took a step back, his pupils constricting suddenly.
"Ahh
The pheasant looked really distressed with his hands on his chest, "If you are brothers with the Straw Hat, then you are also Mr. Karp's grandson?" So isn't it meaningless to deliberately let go of the Straw Hats because they have a bigger harvest? ”
"Is it because of the old man that he didn't go after Luffy!"
Ace secretly said in his heart, no wonder the pheasant would follow him and wander around the sea for a whole day, is this the case?
"That's fine, Luffy,"
Ace had the brightest smile on his face, "If you sail, you're happy!" Yes,"
"It's happier!"
"Alara, forget it,"
Pheasant stood up, "Since you were ready to hurt Mr. Karp when you came, you can't let go of such an awareness because of a momentary misunderstanding, right?" Isn't it too ugly for the admiral to come out once and get nothing? ”
"Portcas D. Ace, no,"
The pheasant raised his right hand, and a white cold air spread from above, "Goel D. Ace, the son of One Piece, the most evil bloodline in the world, now, take it with your hands tied!" ”
"My name is, Portcass D. Ace!! There was only one father of mine, and his name was,"
"Bear!!"
A huge fist of flames roared out.
"Whitebeard, ahh!!hh
