After leaving the rainy land, Zhou Xiaoning returned to the port capital of Narohara and stayed there, because he was waiting for someone here. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Portcas D. Ace, whose real name is Gore D. Ace, is actually the widow of "One Piece" Gore D. Roger, and when he grew up, he hated his father very much, so he changed his surname to the surname of his biological mother, Portcas D. Lujiu. He was later adopted by Karp and became Luffy's brother-in-law.

Like Luffy, Ace also aspires to be a pirate, goes to sea a few years earlier than Luffy, and establishes the "Spade Pirates". Later, he met Whitebeard and challenged him, but he was defeated, and he was merged into the Whitebeard Pirates with the "Spade Pirates". At first, Ace was very unconvinced, and then assassinated Whitebeard hundreds of times, but Whitebeard was easily solved.

Later, when Ace reveals to Whitebeard that he is the son of One Piece Roger, Whitebeard not only kicks him off the ship, but laughs it off, which makes Ace finally recognize Whitebeard Edward Newgate as a great pirate, and he is finally willing to bear the name "Whitebeard". Soon after, he took on the position of captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates.

You know, Whitebeard, as the strongest person in the world, has no one, the strength of the fifth order stands at the top of the pirate world, and in the top war, he resisted the three generals with a serious illness and was undefeated, and later if it wasn't for the fact that Skuyard was too stupid, he listened to the discord of the red dog and stabbed Whitebeard in the back, making his already weak body even weaker, I'm afraid Ace would be very likely to be rescued.

Under the leadership of such a strong man, the captain he recognized will naturally not be weak, not to mention that each is comparable to a naval admiral, but at least it is also a vice admiral level, and several of them are powerful, and they can even face the general for a short time without falling behind. Under such circumstances, Ace was able to become the captain of the second team, which shows his strength.

Of course, if it was just like this, Zhou Xiaoning would not have waited for him in Rohara, don't look at Zhou Xiaoning sitting in the position of rear admiral, but he really doesn't have much sense of belonging to the navy, if it weren't for the resources of the navy, he would have thrown away the navy's "justice" coat and ran away as a pirate.

So catch Ace to earn military merit and get promoted and other things, Zhou Xiaoning is too lazy to do it, whoever likes to go, he won't go anyway.

The real reason why Zhou Xiaoning decided to stay and wait for Ace was actually that he took a fancy to Ace's Burning Fruit, or the fire elemental energy brought by the Burning Fruit, if anyone in the pirate world has the purest fire elemental power, I'm afraid it must be Ace.

In the original work, the place where Ace appeared for the first time and reunited with Luffy was Narohara. Moreover, in a state of full consciousness, Zhou Xiaoning quickly found the restaurant that appeared in the original plot.

Since Zhou Xiaoning didn't know when Luffy and the others and Ace would arrive, he had to use the stupidest way to wait for the rabbit, and finally after eating in that restaurant for ten days in a row, he finally saw Ace.

He has black hair, a normal complexion, freckles on his cheeks, and a tattoo on his left arm with the word "ASCE", of which the S is crossed. In addition, the "Whitebeard Pirates" is tattooed on the back, and he wears an orange cowboy hat with two badges of "smile" and "sadness" on the brim. There is also a skull sign tied to it, and a necklace with red beads around the neck. He also habitually wore a dagger to his waist, though he hadn't used it since he had eaten the burnt fruit.

To sum up, there is no doubt that this person should be Ace himself, and others dare not dress up like this.

Although the person he was looking for had already been found, Zhou Xiaoning didn't plan to go over now, after all, the people hadn't arrived yet.

I don't know if it's because he was once adopted by Karp.,Ace also inherited some of Karp's unreliability.,Come to the restaurant to eat.,As a result, he fell asleep without warning.。

This made the restaurant owner and diners quite worried, and they all speculated whether he had eaten the "desert strawberry" by mistake.

The "desert strawberry" is said to be a poisonous spider that looks like a red strawberry, and if you accidentally eat it, you will die of poison in a few days, and the corpse will emit infectious viruses within a few hours.

Zhou Xiaoning didn't know if it was true, but if he heard what others said, he would listen to it as if it was true.

But the problem is that Ace is just asleep and not dead, so those people's guesses are completely wrong. What's more, with Ace's ability to burn fruits, even if he eats the "Desert Strawberry", I'm afraid it will be fine, and those toxins have already been burned clean by the fire before they can spread.

Soon, after learning that Ace was still asleep, the onlookers dispersed, but as soon as the crowd dispersed, Ace had no cover, and he happened to sit with his back to the gate, and the pattern of the "Whitebeard Pirates" behind him was not too obvious.

So, Ace was discovered by Smoker passing by. Unlike Zhou Xiaoning, who is not in his position, Smoker is definitely a qualified navy, and he is jealous and hateful to pirates, and he has eaten the fruit of smoke, and his strength is not bad, if it weren't for the fact that he can't be a man and doesn't know how to dredge up and down, why is he still just a colonel now?

"You're so bold that you dare to eat here in public, Captain of the Second Team of the Whitebeard Pirates, Potcasus D. Ace."

The prestige of the Whitebeard Pirates can be said to be famous for the entire One Piece Shijie, and as soon as Smoker broke Ace's identity, it caused a strong sensation, and the people in the entire hotel were shocked, not to run, not to stay here and here, and they were a little at a loss for a while.

"What did a famous pirate like you do when you came to this country?"

"I'm just here to find someone, I wonder if I can trouble you not to disturb me?"

"That's not going to work, although I'm looking for other pirates and I'm not interested in your head, but I'm a navy."

Smoker fulfilled his obligations as a navy, even if he knew that he might not be able to help Ace, he did not let Ace go at all, his right hand had turned into smoke, and he could attack at any time.

"It's really boring."

Ace laughed, although he was still sitting there lazily, but Zhou Xiaoning could see that he had entered a combat state, and the fire element around him had become very active, as long as he wanted to, he could burn down the entire hotel in an instant.

However, Ace is also a relatively restrained pirate, and he should not do such a crazy thing, and the most likely behavior is to find an opportunity to escape from the hotel, and then find an open place to fight Smoker again. Of course, it would have been better if Smoker hadn't caught up by then.

Ace and Smoker are tense as they see a big battle on the horizon.

However, at this moment, a strange sound was faintly heard outside.

"Rubber, rubber-rocket!"

A humanoid object flew in from the outside, and the strong force of the carrier hit Smoker's back, Smoker couldn't stand it, and was carried by the object to continue to fly forward, hitting Ace, Ace couldn't stand it, and flew out with Smoker, breaking through several walls in a row, and then stopped.

At the moment when the two flew out, Zhou Xiaoning saw surprise, helplessness, and a "holding grass" expression on their faces, and they used their own personal experience to tell everyone how important it is to learn to be domineering, at least in the future, my mother will never have to worry about me being attacked by sneak attacks.

And the culprit who caused all this was sitting at the table like a nobody, noisily asking for dinner.

"Poof, hahahahaha!"

Zhou Xiaoning finally couldn't hold back and laughed, this scene felt very happy when I first watched the animation, and now I watched the live version, and the joy was overwhelming!

"Ah, it's you!"

Luffy looked over with laughter, and just saw Zhou Xiaoning holding his stomach with one hand and slapping the table with the other, his face flushed, as if he was immediately out of breath with laughter.

Although Luffy didn't know why Zhou Xiaoning was laughing, one thing was for sure, this guy in front of him was very strong, even if he had made some progress during this time, he was not his opponent, if Zhou Xiaoning wanted to make a move on him or even his partner, he would definitely not be able to stop him.

For a while, Luffy actually forgot to eat, just looked at Zhou Xiaoning vigilantly, and once Zhou Xiaoning had any abnormal behavior, he would run away as soon as possible.

Zhou Xiaoning's divine sense has the ability to read minds, but it is only a rough idea, and it is still a little hot to completely read Luffy's heart. But if he can read Luffy's heart, he will definitely overturn his previous understanding of Luffy, who said that Luffy has a low IQ, this is simply better than a monkey, it looks ordinary on the outside, but in fact he has already planned how to escape.

"Well, take it easy, I'm not here for you this time."

Zhou Xiaoning waved his hand, signaling Luffy not to care about him.

As a result, Luffy really didn't pay attention to him anymore, but began to eat and drink, saying how big this guy's heart is.

"You're really hard for me to find, Straw Hat Boy!"

Smoker and Luffy are also old acquaintances, before Luffy escaped from Rog Town, Smoker regarded it as a great shame, and even did not hesitate to put down the defense of Rog Town, chasing all the way here, in order to catch Luffy.

But Luffy didn't seem to think of this person for a while, although his eyes looked at Smoker, he didn't listen to the movements of his hands for a moment, and continued to stuff food into his mouth.

"Hahahaha, Smoker, you're being ignored, hahahaha!"

Zhou Xiaoning continued to laugh, it was really funny to see Smoker's ice face being made angry by Luffy's dementia.

"Why are you bastard here, you are also a rear admiral, and you are indifferent when you see the pirates here!"

Smoker was furious, but this time the object was changed to Zhou Xiaoning.

When Zhou Xiaoning was sent to the four seas, he had worked with Smoker for a while, so the two of them were old friends. At that time, both of them were captains, and half a year later, Zhou Xiaoning was promoted to major, and Smoker was still a captain. Two years later, Zhou Xiaoning became a colonel, and Smoker was still a captain. Three years later, Zhou Xiaoning was promoted to brigadier general, and Smoker was still there as a captain, Zhou Xiaoning saw that he was too pitiful, and used the power in his hand to let the people below stop embarrassing him.

But then somehow, there were rumors that someone was covering Smoker, which made Smoker angry. But in the following year, he was promoted from brigadier colonel to colonel, which undoubtedly confirmed this rumor, and although others did not say it, they had great doubts about his ability.

This is why he is so unhappy to see Zhou Xiaoning, after all, he was promoted after unimaginable efforts by ordinary people, but in the end he was easily erased by the sentence "There are people above", this kind of thing will feel unfair to whoever puts it on.
