Time passed in a blink of an eye, and it was the day before the day of the public execution.

Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.

"Quick! Fast! Fast! ”

"Hurry to your location!"

"The time for the start of the war is getting closer and closer, everyone must not slack off!"

Dense footsteps, loud shouts one after another, resounded in various positions of Marin Fando, and the figure of the navy was everywhere.

on the training ground.

"Put on your own clothes."

"This Shura-level special training is over here, tomorrow, we have a more important task!"

Rob Lucci stood up straight and said in a deep voice.

In front of all the members of the special training class, neatly folded naval clothes are placed.

"Boom!"

Kirby's throat rolled, and he was so nervous that he couldn't speak.

He was very aware of the reason for the termination of the special training class, and Mr. Karp came to see him yesterday and told him something.

"War is coming!"

There is both nervousness and an inexplicable excitement and excitement in my heart.

Afterwards, everyone present calmly and calmly changed their clothes.

"Our target location is not far from General Charlot, G-23 defense point."

After waiting for everyone to change their clothes, Rob Lucci said in a deep voice.

"Now, everyone is lined up and go to the target point immediately!"

Everyone nodded in unison: "Yes!" ”

Soon, the members of the special training class led by Rob Lucci headed towards Marin Fando Square.

The training ground, which was lively a moment ago, became quiet in an instant.

"Roronoa Zoro."

Bartholomew Bear glanced at Moriah not far away, withdrew his gaze, and stared at the man directly opposite.

"I'm heading to the battlefield!"

"The Navy Headquarters has asked the Seven Martial Seas to arrive early."

Sauron took a deep breath, his face changing.

"What about me?"

For a while, he was actually a little confused, although he shed a lot of blood and sweat during the special training these days, he felt very fulfilled.

Suddenly, everyone was gone.

What's next?

"Do you want to be part of this war?"

Xiong said slowly.

"Or do you want to see the real battlefield?"

Hearing this, Zoro's pupils contracted, and the whole person was in a trance as if he had been struck by lightning.

Real war!

Yes, tomorrow will be the event that will sweep the world and affect this era. An unimaginable war is coming, and its spectacle, shock is unparalleled.

"Take me to see it!"

Zoro grinned.

He suddenly felt a little excited, looking forward to it.

You've decided to witness this war, haven't you? Because there, there is a high chance that Luffy will be seen.

——

The main prison is not far from the square execution platform.

The entire prison has been transferred in advance, and there are only a few people in this prison at the moment.

"The big war is coming, as a general, you should be very busy, and you have time to stay here all the time."

Ace looked up and stared at the man sitting cross-legged across from him.

"My mission is to make sure you don't have any accidents before the big war comes."

Xia Le opened his eyes and said with a faint smile.

"Really? It seems that I am indeed very important to you! ”

Ace said thoughtfully.

"It's not important!"

Xia Le closed his eyes and spoke in a casual tone.

"Oh?"

Ace questioned.

"There are many ways for the Navy to get you on the execution table."

Xia Le said lightly.

Ace frowned slightly, but he didn't understand what the other party meant.

"I have a man of power who can take on the form of anyone he touches."

"If you replace him with him, there will undoubtedly be no surprises!"

Xia Le smiled lightly.

Hearing this, Ace's eyes shrank, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"But I've decided not to use him, and you'll be on your own."

"Because, it's going to be a little bit more realistic."

Xia Le smiled lightly.

"Realism?"

Ace raised his eyebrows.

But Xia Le did not answer him, and for a moment the entire prison fell silent.

He raised his head and walked into the distance, empty except for the corridors, where every ten meters a Navy elite would stand still like a sculpture.

"Navy, do you really have the confidence to be able to defeat Whitebeard?"

Ace sighed softly.

"It's not something you should worry about, Ace!"

Xia Le also sighed.

He could hear that the other party still had a spirit of resistance in his heart until this moment, trying to probe more information to turn himself into a favorable party.

"Do your job well and don't let your fate get worse."

"Don't let everything we have planned and arranged long ago be disrupted by your impulses and actions!"

Ace was silent.

"Even if you don't believe in everything in this world."

"Trust my power too!"

Xia Le said in a deep voice.

Ace took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

The closer we got to the time of war, the more nervous we felt in our hearts, and there was an indescribable sense of anxiety.

Ace is naturally the same, he sits there, even with his eyes closed, but still can't get a good rest, always fantasizing about everything.

Scenes emerge from my heart.

The Whitebeard Pirates came, Daddy fought fiercely with the navy, during the battle, he was shot through half of his face, his body was hit by countless cannonballs, and his good brother Oz arrived, but died in front of his eyes.

Blood flowed, staining the ground of Marinfando red, both naval and whitebeard pirates.

He also saw Luffy, who had passed all the way and managed to rescue himself, which made the audience boil.

But a few taunts and insults from the enemy made him turn back angrily, and finally, when saving his younger brother, he was punched through the chest.

The heart-rending pain seemed to surge out at this moment, sweeping through his whole body, making him feel suffocated, and he clearly felt the taste of death.

Suddenly, Ace opened his eyes.

But the strange thing is that even when he opens his eyes, he can't see everything in front of him clearly, and the strange vision continues.

Daddy was furious, fought with the navy, and finally died in Marin Vantow, and what made him even more angry was that the great and proud Daddy was actually buried under the shameless and despicable sneak attack of Marshall Titch.

Even the ability of the Shock Fruit was seized by that guy.

"Titch !!"

"Daddy!!"

Anger, sadness, and all kinds of emotions welled up in his heart, making Ace's heart extremely painful.

All this does not seem to be an illusion at all, but like he is experiencing it himself, and it really can't be more real.

Suddenly, the scenery ahead became clear.

"Ace."

A deep voice came, making him raise his head suddenly, and he also saw Xia Le, who was sitting cross-legged across from him.

"It's you!?"

Ace said in surprise.

"It's not an illusion."

"It's not a dream, it's the fate you should have experienced!"

Xia Le said in a deep voice.

"Fate!?"

Ace gritted his teeth, shackles between his hands, and clenched his fists violently.

"But the gears of fate are already turning, and it is quietly changing."

"Where it will end up, no one knows."

"The only problem is your choice!"

Xia Le sighed lightly.

Ace bit his lip, he understood what the other party meant: "Don't worry, I won't be impulsive!" ”

He closed his eyes, but he couldn't calm down.

The illusion of that experience was as if it were real, everything was vivid, and even everyone's expressions were vivid, as if embedded in his memory.

Even, if it weren't for the other party's admittion, he would think that he had crossed over.

Time passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the early morning of the second day.

This is also the time of the public execution that was originally planned.

That is, the time has come.

One of the world's pinnacle wars is coming!

In later generations, this war that swept the world and brought the entire era to an end was named the Battle of the Top.

And it's in this critical, tense time frame.

Advance into the city.

"Knock knock!"

"Knock knock!"

"Knock knock!"

The dull sound of drumming came out suddenly, affecting everyone's hearts in the new shemale paradise.

"STRAW HAT BOY BOY, WHAT'S WRONG?"

"His heartbeat sounded like someone was beating a war drum!"

"Not awake yet!"

"The danger to life has passed, but Magellan's toxins are not so easy to remove, and it will take some time."

Ivankov, Lightning and the others looked at Luffy lying on the hospital bed in amazement.

Reilly, who was waiting silently on the side, stood up abruptly and walked over.

When he saw the other party's chest and the violently beating heart, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his eyes showed a touch of solemnity and expectation.

"Again?"

"This magical drum beating!"

"It seems to be the sound of the Drum of Liberation, right?"

He clearly remembered that in the Chambord Islands, when the will in the other party's body was awakened, such a drum sounded as well.

When the drums beat more violently and beat faster, the power of awakening will appear.

"Will the unknown will of 800 years ago reappear?"

Reilly muttered.

"Knock knock knock!"

The drums were still playing, coming out in a steady, powerful sound.

Gradually.

"The toxins on the Straw Hat Kid have receded!"

"It's amazing, his body produces antibodies that are immune to this toxin!"

"He's about to wake up!"

The time of awakening was beyond everyone's expectations, but in a moment, Luffy, who was lying on the hospital bed, opened his eyes.

"Here, where is it?"

"Reilly, did you save me again?"

Luffy said blankly.

"This time, it's not me who saved you, it's them!"

Reilly said with a smile.

Ivankov and the others immediately came over excitedly and introduced themselves in a rambling manner, but in a moment, they became familiar with Luffy.

Reilly stood aside, thoughtful in his eyes.

He noticed that in Luffy's chest, his heart was still beating strongly.

But this time, the will that lurked in the body didn't react at all, as if it had disappeared, no, it should be said that it was fused with Luffy.

"The awakening of the rubber fruit?"

Reilly's eyes narrowed.

"What a miracle!"

Legend has it that the Devil Fruit contains a soul or will, and when the strength of the person with the ability reaches a certain level and matches the will soul in the fruit, the awakening of the fruit will be triggered.

And Luffy's strength is obviously not up to the mark.

"Is it because of the appearance of Joey Boy that he mastered this power in advance?"

Reilly smiled.
