"You...... Are you in the Navy? Is it my grandfather's men? ”

Ace looked at Ian in surprise, he didn't expect that Ian's mouth would come out one after another with names that made him feel familiar.

"Ah, no, don't get me wrong! I'm not a navy, I'm a pirate hunter! Ian successfully handcuffed Ace's hand, so he was quite proud, and explained: "It's not your grandfather's soldiers, I just received your grandfather's commission!" ”

"He commissioned you to arrest me?" Ace tilted his head and asked curiously, "What are you doing with me?" ”

"What else?" Ian shrugged and said, "Let you be a navy!" So you have to come with me to meet him! ”

"Nope! I don't want to be in the Navy! Ace immediately struggled: "I won't go to see the old man, he will definitely beat me when I meet!" ”

Ian hurriedly pulled the other end of the handcuffs, for fear of being broken free by Ace, but found that Ace's strength was beyond his imagination, so he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "How do you still have the strength?" Aren't you a Devil Fruit powerhouse? ”

Ace was stunned: "Devil fruit? The kind that Luffy guy ate you were talking about? I'm not! ”

Tut! made a mistake, Ian couldn't help but have a toothache, he thought that Ace had already eaten the burning fruit, so he used Hailou stone handcuffs to handcuff him, who knew that this guy was not a Devil Fruit ability now!

Well, it seems that this is indeed the case, Ace has not entered the Great Voyage yet, but the Devil Fruits all appeared on the Great Voyage, and it is normal for Ace to not be a Devil Fruit capable person now, right?

Then the Hailou stone handcuffs are not very useful for him, just a relatively stronger pair of handcuffs.

"Hey, let me go!" Ace shouted to Ian, "Or I'll beat you!" ”

"Can't put it!" Ian shook his head, and at the same time his hand began to exert strength, and the two began to compete with each other with the help of Hailou stone handcuffs.

However, at this moment, Ian suddenly heard a shout from behind.

"Brother Ian!"

This is Johnny and Joseph catching up, just now in order to chase Ace, Ian's feet accelerated, Johnny and Joseph were left behind, and Ian almost forgot about them.

The two of them panted and chased after Ian and Ace, and said breathlessly, "You...... You're running so fast! ”

After finishing speaking, Johnny and Joseph found out about the dispute between Ian and Ace, and then saw the handcuffs in Ace's hands, and immediately understood what was going on, so without waiting for Ian to talk, Johnny and Joseph immediately entered the pretending mode!

Standing back to back, Johnny slammed his fist on his chin: "Hey, Joseph, Brother Ian's captor doesn't seem to be willing to be captured!" ”

Joseph crossed his arms and held a cigarette: "Johnny, depending on the situation, we can't help but make a move!" ”

After saying that, the two of them rushed towards Ace left and right, trying to hold him and press him to the ground.

But they forgot that Ace was just handcuffed with his right hand, but his left hand and feet could move, and Ace didn't know them, as soon as he saw the two of them pounce, he immediately counterattacked!

With a leg lift, Ace kicked Johnny in the face, then turned around and slammed his left fist into Joseph's nose, and the two of them immediately fell.

Originally, Ace was still taking it seriously as if he were facing a great enemy, but seeing that the opponent was defeated so easily, Ace was also stunned for a moment.

After Johnny and Joseph fell to the ground, they didn't forget to leave a leaky sentence in their mouths: "Poor...... Almost won the ......."

Ace looked at Ian with beads of sweat on his head and asked, "Are they fools?" ”

Ian covered his face and said, "Don't ask me, I don't know them......"

Taking advantage of the negligence of his speech, Ace suddenly used a force on his hand, pulled the other end of the handcuffs out of Ian's hand, and then ran away!

"Don't run!" Ian reacted immediately and immediately began to chase.

"Fools don't run!" Ace didn't look back, his arms swung desperately and ran forward.

The two chased and fled, and soon left the place, leaving only Johnny and Joseph still lying on the ground, Johnny this guy had a large shoe print on his face, and Joseph had half of his face swollen.

After getting up from the ground, Johnny also said with emotion: "It is worthy of being a character who wants Big Brother Ian to do it himself, it is really powerful!" ”

"yes, we almost won, what a shame!" Joseph chimed in.

Just as they were sighing, Johnny and Joseph suddenly noticed that there were people behind them, and when they looked back, they found that they didn't know when, a large group of people had surrounded them!

"You'd better worry about yourself first!" An odd man with a round iron shield on his chest and back looked at them with a smirk on his lips......

……………………

Ian chased Ace all the way down, and soon ran to the center of Rogue Town.

This is a very wide square, there are quite a lot of people, and most of them are tourists, you can see a lot of people with cameras in their hands, Ian didn't pay attention at first, and when Ace in front of him suddenly stopped, he found that in the middle of the square, there was a high, wooden platform.

Ian immediately understood where this was, this was the most famous place in Rogue Town, the execution table!

Nineteen years ago, One Piece Gore · It was on this high platform that D. Roger was sentenced to death, and it was on this high platform that he shouted the words that the world coveted.

"Want my treasure? If you want, I can give it all to you, go find it! I put everything out there! ”

Although he grew up in a small and remote village like Frostmoon Village, Ian had also heard a lot of stories about Roger, and the most talked about by the old people in the village was the legend of One Piece, so when Ian saw this execution table, his mind suddenly felt a little dazed.

Ace also stopped far in front of the execution table, he raised his head and looked up at the top of the execution table, silently without saying a word.

Seeing this scene, Ian couldn't help but sigh, he finally knew why Ace came to Rogue Town, and he chose the time when Karp was not here, not because Rogue Town was close to the entrance of the Great Voyage, but because Ace wanted to come and see the place where his titular "biological father" Roger was executed.

He can understand Ace's mood at the moment, because he hates Roger, One Piece Roger did not fulfill any father's responsibilities, not only did not bring any glory to Ace, but brought the endless pursuit of the navy, in order to avoid the pursuit of the navy, Ace's mother was pregnant with him for 20 months before giving birth to him, and then died of exhaustion.

Since he was a child, he has no father and mother, and he is still burdened with the criminal blood of Roger One Piece, and all Ace hears from people is hatred and disgust for One Piece, which makes Ace want to die for a while.

If it weren't for the appearance of Luffy and Karp and the care of his family, Ace would have really ended his life a long time ago.

Ace was resentful of Roger, he never wanted to admit that he was Roger's son, but even so, he wanted to see the place where the man died......

This is a very complex psychology, and it is estimated that even many psychologists may not be able to describe it.

Actually, Ace is really a poor person......

Walking up from behind, Ian came to Ace's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Do you want to go up and have a look?" I'm with you! ”

Ian was also a little hot at this time, and he was rarely impulsive, he didn't care about thinking about what kind of commotion would be caused after he boarded the execution table with Ace, he just thought that maybe he should really let Ace go up and have a look.

However, what he didn't expect was that Ace was calmer than he thought at this time, and pulled the brim of his hat down a little to cover his eyes, Ace said: "No need, just take a look here!" ”

It's strange that Ace didn't ask Ian why he knew his feelings, maybe after hearing familiar names from Ian's mouth one after another, Ace had already subconsciously thought that Ian had learned some things about himself from Karp, and felt that Ian had a deep relationship with him.

Sure enough, in the next second, I heard Ian shrug his shoulders and say, "Whatever you want, but if it's Luffy, I'll definitely go up!" ”

What Ian originally said was that Luffy and this guy were on the execution table three years later, but in Ace's ears, it became a confirmation of his speculation, so he also laughed and said, "Yes, if it was my stupid brother, he would definitely do it!" ”
