It's been a day since Ace was knocked unconscious.

"Ah...... Never-before-seen ceiling! ”

When Ace opened his eyes again, he saw a ceiling he had never seen before, but fortunately, this time he was lying on a hospital bed, not in prison.

"Ahh Lost! ”

Ace looked at the white and flawless ceiling, and gradually fell into deep thought, this time he did not lose his memory, he knew that he lost again, and he lost in the same trick, of course, the reason why he was easily knocked out by Yamato was also the reason why the old wound that was injured by Kaido before was cracked...... But losing is losing, and even if he is given a few hundred more chances, he still can't win......

"Yo~ You're awake?!"

Just as Ace was thinking about life with a wry smile, a cold voice came from Ace's bedside.

"Huh? Is anyone still in the ward? Scared the hell out of me! ”

Ace listened to the male voice coming from his ear, and was so frightened that he immediately stood up on the hospital bed, and looked at the man sitting next to the hospital bed in panic, peeling the apple.

"I say! Is my presence really that low? ”

The man is wearing an eye-catching patent leather coat, with a pair of wings behind him that seem to be fallen angels from hell, and the whole person is full of aura, no matter how you look at it, he will definitely not be a character with a low sense of existence, and it can even be said that he has a strong sense of existence!

"Ahh I'm sorry! I always subconsciously thought that Mr. Ember was a statue! ”

After seeing the man in front of him, Ace gently wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, bowed slightly and apologized.

"Statue ......"

Ember was a little speechless at Ace's words, obviously he had explained that he was not a statue before, and sure enough...... Anyone related to that hero Karp is a fool!

That's right, Ember has already investigated Ace's background, including the fact that the other party was born in Windmill Village, an unknown village in the East China Sea...... After learning Ace's identity, Ember wants to try to keep the other party in Zuan to work for Kaido, and at the very least, he wants to let the other party join the Yamato Pirates, if the grandson of the naval hero Karp becomes their subordinate, it will be of great strategic significance.

"Click~"

With the last blow of the fruit knife in Ash's hand, the apple was finally peeled off, and Ember gently raised the apple king in his hand that emitted a white light and had a refreshing taste from the fruit kingdom Frut.

"Thank you......"

Ace looked at the apple in Ember's hand, subconsciously stretched out his hand, and thanked him.

"No thanks!"

"Click~"

Ember bowed her head to Ace to say no need to thank him, then removed the mask from her mouth and gulped down the apple.

"Huh? Isn't this for my apples? ”

Ace's eyes widened as he watched as he quickly ate the embers of the apples......

According to common sense, isn't it for a healthy person to peel an apple in a hospital room for the sick? How could this man eat on his own?

"What do you think? I want to eat and peel it yourself! ”

Ember shoved a basket of apples at the head of the bed towards Ace.

"Nope! I never peel apples! ”

Ace picked up an apple the size of his head from the basket and ate it in large gulps.

"Ahh I didn't expect you to be a heretic who doesn't peel your skin, and if you weren't a navigator handpicked by Yamato, I would have burned you a long time ago. ”

Ember glanced at Ace, who was eating an apple without peeling, and pouted helplessly.

"Ahem, ahem...... Do I have to be burned just because I eat apples and don't peel them? Your Zuan's rules are too strange, aren't they? ”

Ace coughed after listening to Ash's words, and he choked on Ash's words.

"Nope! It's not a rule of Zu'an, it's just a rule I set, and it only applies to the entire Zaun Prison! ”

Ember crossed Erlang's legs, sitting in a very righteous position, holding the apple in one hand and the mask in the other.

"Okay!"

Ace nodded, and didn't say anything else, after all, this is the matter of Zu'an, and he had better take care of it now.

"You were defeated by Yamato, so you can be considered half a Zuan."

Ember winked at Ace, then tentatively said to Ace.

"Ah......h

Ace changed his face suddenly after listening to Ash's words, if he wasn't a peer of a similar age, he would never bet on his future, if he replaced Yamato with Kaido, even if he was killed, don't want to make him succumb, but the problem now is that he lost to a person of a similar age, and he lost the bet.

"Huh! I don't know if it's half a Zuan, but if you lose, you're losing! That's something I have to admit. ”

Ace preached to Ember very open-mindedly, as if he had died.

"It's right that you can have such an idea, following Yamato will definitely not make you suffer, maybe you may become the youngest fleet in history to become the king of the pirates, after all, you are still so small."

Ember nodded lightly at Ace, and Ace's words made the old man Zuan, who had watched Yamato grow up, very pleased.

"That's right! I'm still young! ”

After Ace listened to Ash's words again, his eyes flashed with a gleam, emphasizing that he was still young, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"That's it...... I've said enough, right! I've all been released from my prison with your crew, and as long as they don't commit any more crimes, I won't manage them anymore, and now they should be in the City of Flowers, and they are doing well without your worries. ”

Ember said as he looked at the watch on his wrist and stood up slightly, it was almost time for him to leave.

"Goodbye!"

Ace politely waved his hand at Ember, the words of the top hat he had learned from Magino when he was in Windmill Village.

"Hmm!"

Ember nodded lightly at Ace, turned and left Ace's hospital room, leaving the other party to sit quietly in the room alone.

"Alas...... What should I do next? Get a good night's sleep? ”

Ace sighed helplessly, and then lay back on the soft big bed, and gently closed his eyes.

Five minutes later.

"Nope! I can't sleep at all! ”

Ace opened his eyes, and after five minutes he couldn't sleep.

"Let's go out and take a walk!"

Ace thought about it all his life, and he felt that he couldn't stop.

……

"Got it~"

"Mr. Ace, your lunch is here!"

A beautiful little nurse, dressed in a playful nurse skirt and beautiful white stockings on her legs, took a light step, dragging a small trailer, and opened Ace's ward.

However, the nurse responded to the empty ward, the window that had been opened.

"Ah!!h

With a disturbing scream, countless doctors and nurses gathered around the little nurse in front of them.

"What's going on?"

A group of medical staff gathered at the door of Ace's ward and asked the little nurse who was sitting on the ground.

"The patient has escaped!"

The little nurse stood up with the support of her colleagues and spoke tremblingly.

"What?!"

"Tell the samurai! The person who asked to watch closely above escaped from the hospital! ”

Immediately all the medical staff panicked, and they commanded loudly.

While the entire Zuan Supreme Hospital was in chaos, Ace, who was at the center of the matter, flew aimlessly in the sky until he saw a somewhat familiar figure on the ground.

"Thank you Uncle Tanaka for the soda~"

Yamato wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with a towel and drank the free soda he had received from the foreman at the construction site.

"Hahaha...... Where! Where! It is an honor for Her Royal Highness to be able to drink the soda I bought, but it is really hard for you to do this work. ”

A middle-aged man, known as Tanaka, brought dozens of boxes of chilled soda from a cart and distributed them to the workers who were working the construction site.

"Hold on, everybody! You can eat in a while! ”

Except for Yamato, who can drink soda in advance, other workers have to wait until 12 o'clock at noon before they can come and pick up the soda.

"Oh oh oh!"

A group of workers shouted loudly in unison, and their originally tired bodies and minds were once again burning with faith under the foreman's shout.

"It's not hard! That's what I'm supposed to do! ”

Yamato waved his hand at Tanaka, signaling that he didn't care.

"I really didn't expect His Majesty Kaido to let you come here to experience, compared to people like you, those dogs below are all waste-like existences."

Tanaka looked at Yamato with some envy, but as long as his child can have half of Yamato's perseverance, he can also be much easier!

"Uncle Tanaka said a bit too much, everyone has their own opportunities, not people who can work hard are necessarily better than those who are lazy."

Yamato comforted Tanaka.

"Alas...... Do not say! Do not say! Rest here for now! I'm going to look at the construction site over there. ”

Tanaka let out a long sigh helplessly, bowed slightly respectfully to Yamato, and turned around with his hands behind his back and walked into the distance.

"It's time to eat!"

Not long after Tanaka left, a shout spread across the construction site.

"Huh~"

The moment Yamato heard the voice, he was the first to line up in front of the rice beater.

"Meals for you!"

Several aunts who were cooking looked at Yamato who came over and smiled slightly, and handed the special lunch box that had been prepared for Yamato a long time ago, an oversized special version of the lunch box.

"Today I ate stir-fried meat with celery, crispy sausage, egg rolls, ......"

Yamato looked at the food in the lunch box and left contentedly.

After Yamato left, the queue for food had already formed a long line, and everyone was waiting for a good time to eat.

"Yo~"

Just when Yamato was hiding under the shade of a tree and eating quietly, a greeting sounded in Yamato's ears.

"Huh! Are you ready to be discharged from the hospital? I'm sorry! At that time, I only wanted to defeat you, but I didn't expect it to hit you in the head all of a sudden! ”

Yamato turned around, looked at Ace in a hospital gown, and spoke in surprise and joy.

"Ahh It's okay! Not reacting to your attack, that's my problem! ”

Ace shook his head lightly at Yamato, how could he be embarrassed to accept Yamato's apology!

"Since I defeated you, you're going to be my navigator!"

Yamato held the lunch box in his hand a little nervously and asked Ace.

"Hmmm! Willing to lose! I'll go to your ship as a navigator until I help you become the king of the pirates! But the moment you become One Piece, please let me go, because I'm going to set off from the East China Sea once again and complete my own adventure! ”

Ace nodded lightly at Yamato, and then said his plan.

"Good! Deal! As long as you help me become the King of the Pirates, then I will allow you to leave my pirate group and go to the East China Sea to rebuild your team! ”

Yamato was stunned by Ace's words, she didn't think that she could play like this, but after thinking about it, her father and all the current sea emperors seemed to be all characters left over from the pirates of the previous era, and she understood Ace's thoughts.

"Hmmm! It's a little later to become One Piece! ”

"But I'll be called the fastest man in history to become the king of the pirates!"

Ace had given up on becoming the king of the pirates before Yamato, so he planned to take a step back, and after Yamato became king, he immediately started the conquest of the great shipping route, starting from the starting point of everything in the East China Sea Windmill Village, regathering new companions, and re-taking the great shipping route to Ralphdrew.

Let the newcomers who debuted at the same time as him have a good experience of the fear of being dominated by the monsters of the previous era.

"Although this is a bit of a bully for the pirates of the new era, if you want to blame them, you can blame them for being born too late! Ahahaha......"

After being killed by Kaido and Yamato in seconds, Ace realized a truth, only by bullying the new era with the old era can he be happy.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

"Hey, hey, hey! Cheer up! Ace! You're really worrying like this! ”

Yamato looked at Ace who was laughing wildly, and countless cold sweats appeared on his forehead, the person in front of him wouldn't be broken by her and her father's head, right?

"Ahem...... That's right! What are you doing here? ”

Ace coughed lightly twice, stopping his unbridled laughter, and then looked at the contents of Yamato's lunch box.

"Ahh So vegan! ”

Ace, who is an absolute carnivore, gave up the moment he saw the food in Yamato's lunch box, and those green plants must not be called food!

"I'm trying to make money!"

After Yamato listened to Ace's words, his eyes were full of energy.

"Working hard to make money?"

"Huh? You're the daughter of that Kaido, aren't you the princess? Does Her Royal Highness need to earn money too? ”

Ace nodded calmly at first, he had also worked to earn money before, but when he thought about it, the identity of the other party was different from him, and the other party was a real princess! And she is also the princess of Zu'an, one of the most powerful countries in the New World, and people of this status will definitely not be short of money, right?

"Of course! Do you think that as a princess, you can be lazy and lazy? No! It's because I'm a princess that I have to work harder! ”

Yamato stood up and said to Ace, Ace's deep-rooted thoughts made her very helpless, as if in the eyes of the other party, the king and princess and other royal family members do not need to work, if the royal family of a country is the kind of person who eats and does not do business, then what is the difference with the Tianlong people? She doesn't want to be a dragon pig!

"So is this the meaning of Zaun's prosperity?"

After listening to Yamato's words, Ace compared the country he was in, it was like a heaven and an earth!
