Chapter 264: May Not Die
On an island on the Great Voyage, Ace receives a letter from the World Government, inviting him to become the Seven Martial Seas.
Ace took the letter and read it, and a flame erupted from his hand and burned the letter to ashes.
He snorted and said disdainfully, "Your Majesty the Seven Martial Seas? Right? This kind of thing doesn't mean anything to me! β
On the side, Ace's men came over and chattered.
"It's normal for the boss to look down on the king's Seven Martial Seas, after all, he is the man who wants to become the king of the pirates!"
"Boss, what are you going to do next?"
"Let's go to the New World! The new world is the highest stage for pirates, and only there can be a birth of One Piece! β
"Not bad! Only by conquering the great voyage and finding the great secret treasure can you become the king of the pirates! β
"That's what Roger did!"
β¦β¦
γRoger......γ
Hearing this name, Ace's face sank slightly, but he quickly returned to his natural nature.
Ace said, "Let's go to the new world and become the king of the pirates!" β
One of his subordinates said: "Boss, the new world is the territory of the Four Emperors, and the people there are as strong as monsters. And even if some people are not the Four Emperors, their combat power will not be much worse than the Four Emperors, or even stronger! β
Someone next to him added: "For example, one of the Seven Martial Seas, Celestial Yaksha Doflamingo, he led people to defeat the Four Emperor Aunts. β
Ace frowned and said, "One of the Seven Martial Seas, Celestial Yaksha Doflamingo? β
Like Luffy, the current Ace is a heartless young man who doesn't care about newspapers and news at all.
One of his subordinates handed Ace the previous newspaper, and an arrogant figure appeared in front of him.
Seeing this figure, Ace only felt a pain in his neck, and the memories of his childhood came to his heart again.
"It's him!"
Ace muttered to himself, he became interested in the paper, and read it patiently.
"Don Quixote Pirates...... Speaking of which, did we see a lot of places on the way to the Don Quixote Pirates? β
Ace looked at his men and asked suspiciously.
The subordinate replied, "Yes! The Don Quixote Pirates have a presence throughout the first half of the Great Voyage, and have their industry on almost every island. β
Ace pondered and asked, "Who is better than him or Whitebeard?" β
His subordinates hesitated for a moment and said, "Whitebeard is the strongest man in the world, although Doflamingo is also very strong, but compared to Whitebeard, I'm afraid it's still inferior!" β
Ace nodded and said, "I understand!" In that case, let's challenge Whitebeard! β
Subordinate: "......"
"Boss, think twice, boss! Now you're probably not Whitebeard's opponent! β
The subordinates are a little panicked, their boss is good at everything, but his brain is not very good, and he often does some brainless things.
Ace was very optimistic (heartless) and said, "What are you afraid of? Whitebeard is also a human being, and he can be beaten down. And the one who can defeat him is me! β
Ace speaks of confidence, while his men have sad faces. But since their boss is going to give it a try, then they can only sacrifice their lives to accompany the gentleman.
I have to say that the cohesion of Ace's pirate group is still very strong. His crew knew he was being stupid, and they were willing to be stupid with him.
Ace took his group of pirates to the Chambord Islands, and then went to Fish-Man Island. After coming out of Fish-Man Island, they finally come to the New World.
Under the leadership of Ace, a heartless captain, they randomly chose a route to move forward. It wasn't long before they spotted the Pirate Flag on an island.
This is the pirate flag of the red-haired pirates, planted on the island to protect this place.
"Red-haired Pirates...... Redhead Shanks? β
Ace was stunned, and a warm smile appeared on his face.
He remembered Luffy's heartless brother, and remembered that Luffy had said that the redhead had saved his life.
"I'm going to find the redhead!"
"Boss, think twice, boss!"
His subordinates are about to collapse, either looking for Whitebeard or Redhead, is his captain too prodigal?
However, they were unable to stop Ace, who climbed the snowy mountain and met the red-haired Shanks in the cave.
"A super newcomer among the pirates, you're coming to visit me!"
The red-haired Shanks held a knife in one hand, and his expression was a little terrifying. When facing the newcomer to the pirates, he is not the tease, but the emperor of the pirates!
Ace hurriedly stopped: "Please don't get me wrong, I'm not here to fight." My brother Luffy said you saved his life, and I came to thank you! β
"Luffy?"
The red-haired Shanks was stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face, "You're that kid's brother?" β
Ace nodded, "Yes!" β
The red-haired Shanks burst out laughing, "Soga Soga! Minna, it's time for a banquet! β
The banquet began, and the atmosphere became enthusiastic.
Red-haired Shanks asked, "Does Luffy still want to become One Piece now?" β
Ace held the wine bowl and smiled: "Of course! That kid never forgot his dream and spent all day yelling about becoming One Piece. But ......"
A smile appeared on Ace's face: "I'm sorry for Luffy, but I'm going to be the man of One Piece...... It's me! β
The red-haired Shanks raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "Oh~"
Ace took a sip of wine and continued, "If I want to become the King of the Pirates, I must first make everyone on the sea recognize my strength!" β
Red-haired Shanks smiled and said, "Take off Whitebeard's head?" β
Ace said: "Actually, I was also hesitating in my heart, should I challenge Whitebeard or Doflamingo?
Although Whitebeard is recognized as the strongest man in the world, Doflamingo is in the limelight for a while.
I heard that you four emperors are the highest fighting power on this sea, and although they are strong and weak among each other, it is not easy for one to defeat the other.
However, Doflamingo defeated Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, and even the entire Big Mom Pirates were defeated by him.
Who is stronger Doflamingo or Whitebeard? Who does it make more sense for me to challenge? β
Red-haired Shanks was silent for a moment and said, "Go challenge Whitebeard!" That old man is the strongest in the world, and defeating him will prove your strength! β
"Really? I thought so too! β
Ace smiled, and said that the white beard was the existence that had fought with that man.
Only by defeating Whitebeard can we prove that he has surpassed that man and prove the meaning of his existence!
Roger has become Ace's obsession, and now Ace's mind is full of becoming One Piece, proving that he is not weaker than Roger, and proving the meaning of his existence.
After the banquet, Ace left the place.
Ben Beckman, the deputy captain of the Red-Haired Pirates, lit himself a cigarette and said, "Why did you let him challenge Whitebeard?" β
The redhead said in a deep voice, "Because if he challenges Doflamingo, he will probably die!" β
