Chapter Twenty-Six: The Last Lesson

"There's only the old man here, you don't have to look around." The golden lion Siqi was still biting a cigar and sat down on the seat of the inner hall with a golden sword.

Ace, who originally thought that there would be a group of bigwigs around the golden lion, smiled awkwardly and sat opposite the golden lion.

"Ace, the old man wants to know, are you here to stop the old man? My proud disciple. ”

"No, I won't stop you." Ace shook his head, he still had a lot of respect for the teacher Golden Lion. "There is no reason for a man to stop a man from running to the sea." To borrow Dorag's words, Ace completely gave up on the persuasion of the golden lion.

The golden lion is also nearly sixty years old now, and it would be a pity to let such a character's life end in illness. Maybe this is really the last step in the Golden Lion's life, rather than letting him be terminated by Luffy's "little role", Ace would rather let him become a legend in the battle with the Navy Headquarters.

The legend of One Piece, isn't it?

"Oh?" The golden lion's face showed a look of joy, "You finally changed your original decision and want to help the old man?" "As the top Burning Fruit Ability in the Natural Ability, coupled with the domineering cultivation of people, Ace's joining is definitely like a tiger with wings, and the Golden Lion Club is so happy.

"I'm not going to join, it's just that I have a question for you before you go out."

"Cut." The golden lion snorted heavily, he was very unhappy with Ace's ambiguous attitude.

"You're really... Have you bet everything on this game? An extremely serious expression appeared on Ace's face, and he wondered what the reason for the golden lion to do this, ambition? Fame? Or hatred?

"Ace." The golden lion showed a look of longing, "Every pirate has a secret treasure in his heart, Roger has it, Edward has it, Karp and Sengoku also have it, and I am no exception, my dream is to make my name resound in every corner of the sea, I am the sea pirate who rules the sea, the golden lion Siqi." ”

Looking at the golden lion's self-talk there, Ace didn't interrupt him, perhaps, this is also his own reflection.

"The so-called onepiece is a lineage, the dream of mankind will not end, even if I go and never return, there will be more pirates in the future to follow in my footsteps and become the new golden lion."

Like... Blackbeard?

"Ace." The golden lion turned his head and stared at his disciple with burning eyes, "This is my last lesson for you. ”

Ace nodded heavily, this was the biggest concession he could make. Neither wanting to be the executioner of human life, nor wanting to put Bonnie in a difficult situation, as Ace himself said, "will never go against his own heart", the Golden Lion did not do this, and he could not do it.

Even if there is any impact of a war with the Navy Headquarters now, Ace can't care about it, what he needs now is to find a group of partners as soon as possible and improve his strength to a higher level.

"Really, I actually have such a stupid disciple as you, if Roger knew that you are not a weapon now, he might have crawled out of the grave." With a tone of hatred that iron is not made of steel, the golden lion sighed heavily, "Also, although your strength is not bad, the world stage is not yet within your reach." ”

"Hey, hey, the two have nothing to do with each other."

"Shut up, little ghost, the dangers of the Great Voyage are not something you can understand..."

······

In short, the last lesson between Ace and the Golden Lion ended in this fight, anyway, it's good, isn't it?

Walking out of the golden lion's room, Ace stretched, "Perhaps, a new era is about to appear, forget it, no matter, the plot is a mess anyway..."

When Ace came to the lobby again, the people around him looked at him a little differently, maybe because he had just shown his hand, but now he didn't dare to trouble himself with a little eyesight. "It doesn't matter, out of sight, out of mind." With that, Ace turned his gaze to where Bonnie and the others were.

"Well, it's all here, even Grace and Morgan are here, but who's that girl next to Bonnie?" The sharp-eyed Ace clearly saw that Bonnie was holding a girl in a maid's suit, who looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she looked very delicate, but... Her elbows do not have wings, that is, the girl is not from the floating village.

It's not from this island, it's one of the many pirates, and you're still next to Bonnie? After all the fuss, it is impossible that no one noticed that Bonnie was his crew. So... What are the plans of this girl?

"Hey, Ace, it's too slow." As soon as Ace approached, Bonnie complained impatiently, and her coquettish appearance made the surrounding pirates swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Well, don't be so angry, didn't I come over?" Imitating Kakashi-sensei's tone, Ace walked up to Bonnie without waking up, "Speaking of which, you're a thief who is quick to start, and in just such a short time, you kidnapped a little beauty." ”

As soon as these words came out, Bonnie and the little girl beside her all blushed, while Yuna and the others on the side covered their mouths and forced a smile.

"You guy, say... What to say? Angry, Bonnie fired up and threw a few punches at Ace.

"Yo yo yo, I'm angry!" After Ace nimbly dodged the attack, he continued to tease, but his eyes remained on the little girl, and to his disappointment, the other party still stood in place with a red face.

"Did I guess wrong?" Ace happened to be depressed, Bonnie hit him in the chin with an uppercut, and after a "ah", Ace landed in a perfect posture, and the next thing was the "rain of bullets" from Bonnie.

"Whew..." Maybe it was enough, Bonnie rubbed her hands and shouted at Ace who was lying on the ground, "Ace, you listen to the old lady, if you say something inexplicable to the old lady, the old lady will pull out your tongue and tie a bow and put it back!" ”

"Shhhh

When the men present heard this, they couldn't help but gasp, and then covered their mouths with their hands.

"She's the sister I just recognized, Arna, I want her to join our team, there should be no problem." After expressing her "wonderful" remarks, ignoring Ace who fell to the ground, Bonnie pulled out the little girl behind her. "Well, let's introduce yourself."

At this time, Arna weakly walked out from behind Bonnie, "Hello everyone, I'm Arna from Herb Island, fifteen years old, and now I work as a waitress in Master Sych's bar, I hope to become good friends with everyone. ”

"Hey..." Ace got up from the ground with an unhappy face, "Even if you want to join, you don't need to be so detailed, we don't check the household registration." ”

When Ace appeared in front of Arna, the little girl didn't know which tendon was wrong, and hid behind Bonnie with tears in her eyes, and kept muttering, "Are you going to bully me?" Are you going to bully me······?"

"Ace!" Seeing that Alna was about to cry, Bonnie punched Ace down again, "Stay away from Arna's bad boy's face!" ”

Ace's grievance, is my face very bad?
