Selling Pokémon from Pirates

Chapter 12 Fire

"Hee! It seems that we have encountered someone in trouble!"

Ace, who had long sensed the aura of the people behind him, slowly turned around, with a playful expression on his face.

"Unexpectedly, I encountered pirates when I first came to Rogge Town to report. It seems that there is indeed a big problem with the management here!"

A stout middle-aged man walked out of the smoke, his eyes fierce as a hungry python, staring at Ace as if he was staring at his food.

Smoker, Captain of the Navy Headquarters, a user with the natural smoking fruit ability!

For some reasons, he was just dispatched to the Roge Town Naval Base in the East China Sea, responsible for guarding the gate to the Great Sea Route in the East China Sea.

"Colonel Smoker, we haven't found any information about this person. He should be a new pirate!"

Next to Smoker, an intellectual beauty with red square eyes was holding a stack of wanted posters and reporting.

"Oh~ I see, it seems you are really unlucky!"

A fierce smile appeared on Smoker's lips, his fists clasped together, and his joints made a crisp crackling sound, and he walked towards Ace.

Ace smiled and stepped back, raising his hands in front of him.

"Hey, uncle, don't be so impulsive! We will leave here as soon as we finish the supplies..."

"Leave?" Smoker chuckled, "You are still thinking about that stupid thing now. How much do you despise me as a naval captain?"

"Go to jail and reflect!"

The battle is about to break out!

puff!

There was a muffled sound.

Smoker stepped heavily, and his lower body turned into thick white eyes. His body spurted out, and he struck hard at Ace with his spiked fists.

"What a grumpy character!"

Ace's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face suddenly became serious. He stared at the flying fist, with no fear on his face, and said calmly:

"It's just that your fists are too slow!"

I saw his figure swaying slightly, like a phantom, easily dodging the incoming punch in an instant.

Dodged!?

Smoker's pupils suddenly shrank, realizing that the person in front of him was no ordinary pirate.

but……

He is no ordinary marine either!

puff!

The billowing white smoke enveloped everything, Smoker's figure came behind Ace, and the spiked fist was raised again,

"Don't underestimate me too much!!!"

The heavy punch cut through the air, causing the wind to roar in Ace's ears.

Ace grinned: "Navy, such a fist can't stop a man who yearns for the sea!"

As the son of Roger, the Pirate King, Ace not only inherited Roger's reputation, but also inherited Roger's terrifying talent as a demon.

His strong strength gave him ultimate self-confidence.

The faster fist shadow flashed past instantly and bombarded Smoker's body!

However, the next second, Ace's expression suddenly froze!

Because his fist actually passed through Smoker's body as if it were hitting the air.

Smoker's eyes were stern, a shadow appeared on his face, and he sneered:

"You arrogant brat, you'd better go home and feed yourself!"

Peng!

The heavy punch hit Ace's face without any hindrance.

In an instant, Ace's body flew out like a cannonball and hit the wall behind hard, leaving spiderweb-like cracks in the wall.

"It seems like I really look down on the world."

Ace's eyebrows were lowered, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and slowly stood up from the ground.

He patted the dust on his body and his eyes became more solemn and surprised.

Smoker walked over calmly and slowly pulled out the ten hands stuck on the ground.

Looking at Ace's expression, he couldn't help but sigh:

"I don't even know about the natural devil fruits. The East China Sea is indeed the weakest sea."

Thinking that he was sent away from the Navy Headquarters because he was dissatisfied with the World Government's practices, Smoker felt very upset.

All he wants now is to vent violently.

Whoosh!

The long ten hands pointed directly at Ace, Smoker said:

"Boy, give up. With your current strength, it's impossible to defeat a natural ability user."

"Be obedient and surrender. If you behave well, I can allow you to join the navy!"

Facing a pirate with no criminal record, Smoker still hopes that the pirate will change his ways and embark on the right path in life.

What's more, Ace's reaction speed and strength just now shocked Smoker, and he couldn't help but feel a love for talent.

"Natural type? Devil fruit?"

Ace frowned and said secretly:

"Tough luck!"

"Can I just run away today?"

Due to his personality, what Ace hated most in his life was the word "escape".

When he was a child, he suffered a lot because of his personality.

As he grows up, although he becomes more rational, he still feels unwilling.

"Already thinking about how to escape?"

At this moment, Smoker suddenly showed a mocking smile, as if he had seen through Ace's heart.

"Cut~"

Ace spat softly, but his clenched fists suddenly unclenched, his dark eyes like ink stared ahead, and said slowly:

"Your character is really annoying, big man! You must have few friends, right?"

"Yah!? How did you know!"

Dasqi on the side suddenly covered her mouth and asked in surprise.

"Hey!" Smoker said with a black line, "Don't talk nonsense to me, Adjutant Dasqi!"

Whoosh!

Smoker waved his weapon ten times.

"It seems that you are not going to just surrender and be captured."

"In that case, let me beat you until you can't stand up first, and then let's talk about other things!!!"

"White Man!"

Peng!

With a muffled sound, Smoker's lower body suddenly turned into thick smoke again, and his body flew into the air.

White smoke wrapped around the tip of Jushou, and with a flash of light, it stabbed Ace fiercely below.

"Don't think you're the only one who can use elemental attacks! Bastard!"

Ace let out a roar and waved his arm suddenly:

"Charizard, use flame vortex!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an orange dragon suddenly appeared in front of Ace.

"What!?"

Smoker looked shocked, and his body suddenly stopped in mid-air.

dragon?

The mythical dragon actually exists!?

For a moment, Smoker was stunned in the battle.

"just!"

The Charizard, which appeared in a fighting posture for the first time, didn't care whether the enemy was stunned or not. When it came up, it took a big breath, and the surging flame energy in its body instantly gathered in its mouth, and its eyes bloomed with a fierce light.

next moment……

The blazing flames surged out. The flames were like a thirsty whirlpool on the sea, spiraling up with terrifying momentum, and instantly enveloped Smoker's body.

"Colonel Smoker!?"

Dasqi looked in horror at the flames that dyed the sky red, and shouted worriedly.

"I'm fine!"

In the flames, Smoker's muffled voice came,

His rich combat experience allowed him to quickly mobilize all his strength and transform it into a surging wave of white smoke.

"ah--!!!"

Smoker let out a roar, and a huge wave of white smoke suddenly swept outwards.

Thick white smoke temporarily suppressed the flames.

Then a wisp of white smoke drifted by, and the elemental Smoker escaped from the flames.

"Ahem!"

The long-term smoker coughed twice and blew out two puffs of black smoke.

At this time, there were burnt marks on his hair and clothes, and he was in a miserable state.

"Ah hahaha, I knew it!"

Ace laughed and said:

"What devil fruit, how can it resist powerful creatures from another world!!!"

At this moment, he showed deep disdain for Devil Fruit.

I was also glad in my heart that I didn't eat the devil fruit.

It's useless not to say anything, but it only adds to your own weaknesses.

Watching the ability user Smoker become so embarrassed just by the power of Charizard's casual blow.

Ashton suddenly made up his mind:

Next time you see a devil fruit, exchange it for points!!!

"Boy, what kind of monster is that?"

Smoker, who escaped from the flames, looked solemn and asked in confusion.

"Ouch? (Monster? I'm a fire-breathing dragon!!!)"

After hearing Smoker's words, Charizard suddenly became furious.

He hasn't exercised in such a long time, and he's really suffocating!

Now this guy who delayed his exercise dared to call it a monster. The dragon was really angry!

"Well, bear with it, bear with it..."

Ace comforted Charizard with an apologetic smile, and then looked at Smoker.

"Hey! Big man, you'd better apologize to my brother, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen!"

"Also, you are smoke and we are fire. Smoke is obviously not as good as fire. How about we each take a step back and pretend that no one sees the other?"

Not Esmog.

In fact, it's quite the opposite.

If Charizard hadn't come out, Ace might have really fought him to the end.

But once the fire-breathing dragon appeared, with its terrifying destructive power, half of the town would be wiped out in a real fight.

Ace didn't want this to happen.

However……

What he didn't expect was that his concession, which went against his heart, actually became an insult to Smoker.

Smoker's expression changed instantly: "Damn pirates, don't underestimate the navy!!!"

"White Snake!!!"

The angry Smoker suddenly waved his hands forward. In an instant, his arms suddenly extended forward and turned into a giant white smoke snake, charging towards Ace.

"What a weird-tempered guy," Ace frowned slightly and sighed inwardly, "Well, since we must fight, let's control the damage to the minimum!"

Seeing the strong white snake attack, Ace stretched out his hand and stood directly on the back of the fire-breathing dragon.

"Charizard, let's go to the beach first, find a suitable venue, and get to know this guy!"

"ha!"

The fire-breathing dragon's eyes were as bright as fire, and he jumped into the air, waving his wings, and immediately flew into the air, heading towards the coast.

The white-eyed giant snake lost its target and bombarded the ground, making two large craters on the marble floor.

Withdrawing the smoke, Smoker immediately turned his head and looked at the retreating figure:

"Don't think you can run away!"

"White Man!"

After letting out a light roar, Smoker's body suddenly ejected a huge plume of smoke. With the help of the force of the jet, he also flew high into the sky, chasing after the figures of Charizard and Ace.

"Hey! Colonel Smoker! What should I do?!"

On the ground, Dasqi looked at the two people flying away with a look of helplessness on his face.

He put away the information in his hands and quickly caught up with him in small steps.

…

…

In Rogge Town, Dios, who had just purchased supplies, raised his eyebrows and looked up, just in time to see two figures, one red and one white, flying towards the port.

"Ace, Charizard, and..."

"What's that thing at the back!?"

Thank you King Yunhen Baiyou for your support! Thank you!!!
