One Piece: My Shadow Can Hang Up
Chapter 162 Ace's Challenge, Request
Not long after Moria sent out his men, he had already discovered the hiding place of the Sapphire Pirates, which was in a wooden house in the Uncertainty Terminal.
Of course.
At this moment, the Sapphire Pirates only had Luffy and Ace, and Sabo was taken home by his father.
It was just a small pirate group with little reputation, and Moria did not bring a cannon to kill a mosquito, but only brought a few people to ask for people.
The scene turned, and at this moment, in a wooden house in an open area in the stinky Uncertainty Terminal.
A group of pirates surrounded the two children, and the leader was sitting on a wooden barrel at this moment, looking at the two people in front of him with a bad face. He was the captain of the Sapphire Pirates, Bluejam.
"Tell me, where are the treasures stolen from Borjemi hidden?" Bluejam asked.
Borjemi is a cadre of the Sapphire Pirates. He is also in the room at this moment, but he is covered in wounds. The cause of all this is the captain Bluejam.
As for the reason, he lost the treasures presented to the king and nobles of the Kingdom of Goa. These treasures were collected by the Sapphire Pirates for a long time, and the day of presentation is coming soon. Bluejam is of course furious at this critical moment.
Fortunately, the culprit was caught today. Not only can he be forced to reveal the lost treasure, but he may also be able to collect some interest.
After all, these three guys have stored a lot of good things over the years.
"Tell me quickly, where is the thing hidden? If you tell me, I can let you go if I am in a good mood. If you tell me..."
Bluejem's attitude changed: "You two will suffer. We are pirates. Someone will die at that time..."
"I will give you the treasure. It is what Ace and Sabo and I have saved for a long time!"
Luffy is still so reckless. He is fearless when he sees anyone. He can't be pulled back by a donkey...
"Shut up! Luffy, you don't have a life anymore, so what do you need treasure for?" Ace shouted at Luffy. Luffy immediately turned off the fire when he heard the former's words.
Although Luffy is very stubborn at a young age, he surprisingly listens to his brother Ace.
"But... Ace... That's..." Luffy looked at Ace aggrievedly.
"No but..." Ace is obviously different from Luffy. He can face the reality.
"A very wise decision..." Bluejam grinned: "Tell me, where is the thing hidden?"
"In... I'll take you there..."
At this time, there was a voice of conversation outside the door, as if someone was coming here.
"It's here." A voice came from outside, and then there was the sound of pushing the door.
Hearing the noise, the pirates in the room looked at each other, wondering who was blind and ran to the den of thieves.
"Is anyone there? Luffy, Ace, are you in there?"
Hearing the voice, Luffy was instantly happy: "It's Makino!"
Ace behaved exactly the opposite, with a gloomy face. Makino, a weak woman, appeared here at this time, which was simply a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth.
"There's no one inside, get out!" Bluejam replied loudly. Now he only wanted the treasure and had no time to think about other things.
"I heard it, it was Luffy's voice..."
"It's endless, isn't it? Since you won't leave, don't blame me..."
Bluejem opened the door from the inside, and saw that all the men standing outside were big men, the leader was burly, and seemed to have been seen somewhere before...
"Sir, no, sir." After seeing who was coming, Bluejem fell to his knees with a plop, and his attitude was in sharp contrast to his previous arrogance.
The person who came was naturally Moria.
In Bluejem's eyes, being recognized as a pirate by the World Government was simply his idol, and even a god in his mind.
"I didn't know you were here, please come in." Bluejem was respectful and smiled. His smile was not only ugly, but also made people feel uncomfortable.
"Did you catch those two children?" Moria looked at the two boys tied together in the room, who were looking at him with a confused look at the moment.
"This..." Bluejem's face suddenly became ugly.
He did not dare to admit it, but just avoided the point and said: "Master, I really don't know the relationship between them and you..."
"It's not too late to know now, give me a face and let them go." Moria said calmly.
However, the whisper of the strong man was deafening, and Bluejam hurriedly said to his subordinates: "Why are you still standing there, listen to me and let them go."
Obviously, Moria's face is still very useful. Anyone would take advantage of the situation, otherwise the consequences can be imagined.
Treasures are not important, staying alive is the most important thing.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Until they regained their freedom, Ace and Luffy were a little unresponsive. Who is this person? He just shouted for war and killing, why did he agree to let people go so easily now?
"Ace, Luffy, are you okay?" At this time, Makino also came from behind the crowd, looked up and down at the two, and was relieved to see that they were not injured.
"We're fine, Makino, why are you here? Who is this?" Ace looked at Moria in confusion, then looked at Makino.
"I heard from the guests in the tavern that they saw you being captured by pirates, so I came to find you in a hurry."
After hearing what Maginot said, Ace was confused as to how someone could discover this wilderness, but he wasn't sure.
"who is he?"
Seeing Ace asking about Moria, Luffy also grabbed his waist and parroted: "Who is he?"
"Uh...that...that's..." Maginot stammered a little, looking for help at Moriah, who smiled but did not answer.
After a long time, Maginot blushed slightly and said, "It's a friend of mine."
Compared to the dull Luffy, Ace is a lively thinker. Let's not talk about Luffy's belief, but he doesn't believe it anyway.
Looking at the other person's shy expression, for a moment, he seemed to understand.
Maginot didn't know what to say for a moment. To her, it was a big deal, but to others, it was just a matter of words.
"Thank you." Maginot whispered her thanks to Moriah after seeing Luffy and Ace being rescued.
"I refuse your verbal thanks, I don't accept it." Moria and Maginot looked at each other, and the latter immediately understood the meaning.
This is a time when verbal gratitude is no longer enough and a deeper level of gratitude is needed.
For a moment, Maginot felt her heart tremble and her cheeks turned slightly red.
The person was rescued so easily, it was so effortless.
A little embarrassed, Maginot glanced elsewhere. Suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something, and asked Luffy and the other two: "Isn't that Sabo kid with you? Why didn't you see him?"
The two of them lowered their heads and remained silent for a long time in disgrace before saying, "Saab...Saab was taken away by his father."
Immediately, he told Maginot everything.
Maginot couldn't believe it after learning Sabo's identity. She didn't expect that he was actually a very high-ranking noble, so high that he had the right to inherit the throne of the kingdom.
However, she was relieved. After all, Sabo just went home and there was no danger to his life.
Moria was about to leave, and Blujem hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke with some stuttering.
"Well... uncle, can you let me join the Moonlight Pirates under your command? I am the captain of the Sapphire Pirates. I have admired you for a long time. I can serve you tea and water."
Blujem's eyes revealed desire. If he could join Moria's command, as a member of the King's Shichibukai forces, he would have more than just legal rights to plunder.
What's more important is the improvement of his status. When the time comes, he will no longer help the princes and nobles to do some shameful things, and he will also use money to honor the noble gentlemen and always be on guard against them killing their donkeys.
Moria, who had just stepped across the threshold, turned his head when he heard the words and stared at Blujem with a sense of scrutiny.
Blujem immediately felt a sudden increase in pressure, like a little daughter-in-law who had been stripped naked, with nowhere to hide, as if she had been seen clean.
"To be honest, with your strength, you can't meet my standards for recruiting crew members. But since you were so discerning just now, I will make an exception and give you a chance..."
Before Moria finished speaking, Blujim was overjoyed and almost grinned.
"Before that, you need to answer me a question."
As he said that, Moria glanced at Bergemi, who was still lying on the wooden board in the house with injuries all over his body.
"You happen to be the captain of a pirate group, so let me ask you, if your subordinates fail to complete the assigned tasks, as a loser, what will you do?"
At this moment, Moria is like the interviewer, and Blujem is like the applicant.
"I will..." Blujem hesitated. After all, this is an opportunity to show off in front of the other party, so he must think carefully before speaking.
"Just tell me your inner thoughts truthfully, don't hide it."
"As a loser, he should be severely punished, or even directly executed, as a warning to others. As a member of the pirate group, he should know what his death represents. He would rather die standing and bring honor to the pirate group than live on his knees. Come down and discredit the pirates."
Blujem thought that Moria wanted to see his consciousness, so he also took the opportunity to express his attitude.
Moria nodded slightly, turned around, and said, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he stepped away, and everyone in the Moonlight Pirates followed behind him. Maginot and Luffy and Sabo were at the front of the team.
Blujem stayed where he was, not knowing whether to stay or go.
The word Moria has three meanings attached to it, one is to tell others to leave, the other is to let him go with him, and the other is to drive him away.
Blujim was about to chase after him, but was stopped by the Moonlight Pirates at the rear.
This time, Bluejem understood even if he didn't want to understand.
"Can you tell me why?" Blujem asked unwillingly. He felt that his answer was already good, so why was he still eliminated?
“What’s more important than money, fame, or even dreams is partners!”
Although this sentence was not said by Moriah, it was said for him through someone else's mouth.
"Partner...?"
Blujem froze on the spot, seemingly lost in thought.
Maybe, for the rest of his life, he would never understand why partners are important.
"Moonlight Pirates? Are you a very famous pirate that can make Blujem so scared?" Ace asked Moriah as he walked.
Moriah also looked at the posthumous son of the Pirate King and said, "It's just average, not as famous as your father."
"You..."
When Ace heard this, his face changed instantly.
He looked around, and fortunately Moria's voice was not loud, and he didn't say it too clearly, so no one paid attention.
Ace couldn't understand why this secret would be known by this irrelevant person.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else about this."
Moriah shook his head. In fact, he also felt that this guy was quite pitiful, having a father who pitted his son.
Whether it was the reputation of the Pirate King or the opening of the Great Pirate Era, it was an indisputable fact that he indirectly killed his wife and son.
Ace now felt that this man was a little mysterious. In fact, he was also very angry because he did not agree that his father was Roger, and he hated his father very much.
As he walked, Ace suddenly stopped, and Luffy, who was following him, bumped into the former's back.
Luffy touched his head and said, "Ace, why did you stop suddenly!"
"I want to challenge you!" Ace stopped and looked up at Moria.
Makino next to him was stunned at first, then ran over to hold Ace: "Ace, stop it."
However, Ace did not listen to her, and still stood in front of Moria with his head held high.
Moria ignored him and walked on his own: "If you want to challenge me, wait another ten or twenty years. You don't have the strength now."
As a result, Ace saw that Moria ignored him and walked away, and directly took out his weapon steel pipe, which made his meaning very clear.
This scene scared Makino. She was stunned for a moment, and then ran between the two.
"Ace, you are not his opponent. He is a pirate recognized by the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the World Government..."
Makino accidentally revealed everything he knew, and then looked at Moria again, and found that the other party did not move, so he was relieved.
"That's why I want to see the gap between us." Ace said with a firm look.
Just as Makino was about to say something, a pair of big hands patted his shoulders: "Don't worry about this matter, leave it to me."
"They are still children, you must be careful..." Makino's eyes were full of pleading.
After Makino stepped aside, Moriah picked his ears and said lazily: "Aren't you going to challenge me? Start!"
"Then... I'm sorry!"
Ace jumped up directly, and then waved the steel pipe in his hand towards Moriah's face.
"Bang!"
Moriah did not dodge, and let the steel pipe hit his face, but the skin at the part where he hit had turned black.
It was the armed color domineering.
"Huh?" Ace felt that he was indeed hit, but it felt like hitting steel, not a human body.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Ace swung the stick at high speed and attacked Moria's body again, but the effect was the same as before, as if hitting an iron plate.
Ace, who was unwilling to give up, continued to attack until he was tired and held his knees with both hands and gasped.
"Is it time to end? My time is very precious." Moria yawned and said helplessly.
"It's not over yet!" Ace is not a person who gives up easily: "Why don't you fight back!"
"Why? Because it's over as soon as I make a move."
Moria smiled and snapped his fingers.
"Pah!"
After a crisp sound.
Ace felt a strong shock wave sweeping towards him.
Before he could react, he was thrown backwards by the air wave.
He fell several times in a row before he fell to the ground.
"Ace!" Luffy and Makino hurried over: "Are you okay?"
Because Moriah held back, Ace didn't seem to be injured, and he stood up directly with his hands on the ground:
"I'm fine..."
Is this the difference? With just a snap of his fingers, he was thrown more than ten meters away.
"I lost..." Ace lowered his head, and his little self-esteem was greatly hit.
After seeing that Ace was fine, Luffy was relieved, and then his eyes sparkled, looking at Moriah.
Is this a real pirate? So handsome!
It seems that there is still a certain degree of distance from becoming a real pirate...
"Uncle Pirate, your move just now was so powerful! Can you teach me? Then I can go to save Sabo! Is it okay, Pirate Master!"
I don't know when Luffy had hugged Moriah's thigh, like a piece of dog skin plaster, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter how he shook it.
Moriah was also confused for a while.
What is going on… Where did this guy come from? Why does he randomly claim relatives…
I got up at 5am yesterday and rushed to the hospital. I was busy all day. Maybe I didn’t get enough sleep and was not in the right state at night. I didn’t finish half of it until after 12am. I thought I would finish it during my lunch break today, but someone else came in just before work was over. My colleagues were busy and I didn’t have lunch break. I’m very sorry and hope you can forgive me.
