The strongest vice captain of One Piece

,

spnWhere is this place? Ace looked at the surrounding scene blankly, surrounded by whiteness and emptiness as far as the eye could see. It was like a white picture scroll that had not yet been painted. Except for his own existence named Ace, there was no one.

A trace of other things.

This strange environment made Ace immediately subconsciously want to activate his abilities, but this time even without the restraints of the Sea Tower Stone handcuffs, no flames rose from his body. This strange situation made Ace feel uncomfortable in his heart.

He was startled, but he relaxed immediately.

Ah, that's right. I'm already dead.

So...this is heaven...no, it must be hell. How can a person like me belong to heaven? Only a place like hell is suitable for a person like me who is born a sin.

Me.

Ace thought so, and as his thoughts fluctuated, the pale environment around him suddenly began to fluctuate. Color gradually began to appear in the empty world, and gradually the place where he lived appeared in front of Ace - the vastness.

The endless sea.[

Ace didn't understand what this sudden change was, but now he could do nothing but watch. The screen moved, and soon he came to a small island. Suddenly, Ace found a very familiar figure.

The figure wearing a straw hat is standing on the port holding a package.

"Luffy!!!" Ace couldn't help but exclaimed, but when the screen turned to the front of the man, Ace was disappointed. That was not the face of his familiar idiot brother, but he didn't know why he looked at this face.

Face Ace has a particularly friendly feeling.

"Hey, this ship is really nice!" A man who looked like Luffy stood on the dock and commented on a small boat moored in the harbor.

"...Hmm? You mean this ship?" The ship owner, who was taking a nap during overtime work, was obviously a little surprised by the man's sudden question, but he still answered the man's question after yawning casually. "This

Is it a boat... I stole it... Because my house was burned down, I live here now..."

The boat owner's lazy tone obviously did not mean to say more, but the other party was obviously not a very observant person. "That's it, what's your name?"

"...Reilly." The boat owner seemed a little impatient. For him, the afternoon sun was not a waste of time chatting with a man like this.

The man in the straw hat pressed down his straw hat, revealing a smile that often appeared on Luffy's face. Then he stretched out his right hand to the owner of the ship, "My name is Roger! How we met

It must be fate, Rayleigh! - Do you want to turn the world upside down with me?"

"Take the world?...Hahaha, who are you? Get away from me!"

The man in the straw hat was chatting with the owner of the boat there. Finally, when the boat left the port, there was an extra member. But Ace didn't notice them at all. The moment the man in the straw hat said his name, he

Ace was stunned. "My name is Roger!" These words kept echoing in Ace's mind.

"Hey, stop it, you bastard! You..."

"Hey, what on earth is going on!"

"Can anyone tell me why I see this!"

········

Ace shouted, but no one responded to him. He was like a ghost in history, he could only silently follow the man's footsteps and watch everything happen. The young pirate moved forward slowly, with his feet

The boat slowly turned into a seven-water city

A sturdy sailboat built by a famous craftsman. The owner of the ship who was entangled with him became a shrewd and capable vice-captain. A person with a different personality unknowingly joined his team, and the young pirates also began to

Known as the great pirate Gol Roger!

The domineering white-bearded dad, the high-spirited pirate admiral Golden Lion, Grandpa Garp who was just promoted to vice admiral... These faces from the older generation began to appear in front of Ace. And Ace has always been a leader.

As a spectator, he watched the adventures that the man experienced. Slowly, Ace began to re-understand the father he had never met.

Irritable, willful, but simply like a child. He values ​​his partners no less than his father. He even led a ship of people to destroy a country's army for his partners. Then he came after hearing the news.

Grandpa Garp led a group of marines in pursuit and fled in embarrassment. Now Ace finally understood how Grandpa Garp felt when he talked about his father. Even if his identity and position were different, Roger was still a guy that no one could hate.

Ace didn't realize that without realizing it, he no longer had any resentment towards the person who allowed him to be born into this world. Although he didn't say it out loud, in his heart Ace admitted for the first time that he had inherited from that person.

Bloodline. When he saw his father making a mess and giving Mr. Reilly headaches again and again, Ace couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart.

But the joy did not last long. When his young father collapsed without any warning one day, Ace was as surprised as everyone else. When he learned that he had contracted an incurable disease, the man was confused at first.

After a moment, he suddenly laughed. "Hahaha, is that so? I was still wondering whether I should choose this way! Kids, are you willing to go on the last voyage with me? This time...

····I want to conquer the Grand Line!”

Everyone thought he was crazy, including all the crew members who didn't know the truth except Rayleigh. But no one on the crew proposed to quit this seemingly fatal voyage. Even the red-nosed rookie crew member was adamant even when he finally set sail.

The deputy looked like he was about to die of fright, but he did not leave after all.[

After inviting a highly skilled doctor on board the ship in the Twin Gorges, these people began the last voyage of the Roger Pirates... Three years later, Roger completed his quest to dominate the Grand Line.

In his dream, he became the pirate king, the king of the sea praised by the world. But at the end of this last voyage

Later, the Roger Pirates quietly disbanded. I want to change the world, that's what the man finally said to his old friends. So the man who was talked about by people drank with old friends and old rivals.

After that, he quietly faded out of people's sight. Ace also followed that man's footsteps to the world.

Marching aimlessly, with just one person and a small boat, it is like a lion patrolling its territory for the last time. The town of Rogge where I was born, and some interesting island I have been to... On the Grand Line

The navy who were chasing this man of the hour would never have imagined that the person they were looking for might be resting in a cafe next to a branch of the navy. The pirate king was leisurely enjoying the rest of his time until he met the man

people.

It was another very peaceful day on Patrila Island in the South China Sea. If there was any problem, it was that there was a guy eating Overlord Meal in the restaurant on the island. No one would have thought that someone eating Overlord Meal in a restaurant would

He is the famous Pirate King, and no one would have thought that such a man would stay in the back kitchen and wash dishes under the threat of the seemingly fierce boss lady. Of course, a guy who has been spoiled by the chef on his ship is not a household chore.

expert.

After who knows how many plates were broken, even the proprietress couldn't help but have the idea of ​​​​sending this guy away quickly. However, there was also a "nosy" lady in the restaurant. Her hair was as beautiful as the waves.

Although she has long colored hair and a delicate face, there are some freckles, but this does not affect Lujiu's beauty. After she couldn't stand a useless helper, this lady started with a gentle but unacceptable attitude.

Teach the Pirate King how to wash dishes.

Even after finding the money bag that he had left in the hotel, for some reason the Pirate King suddenly felt that he should throw it away. In fact, he did so. Then someone who got up early made a fortune, and the people in the town

There is an extra helper in the restaurant that makes the beautiful Miss Lujiu very worried.

Ace watched his parents grow from acquaintance to falling in love, and their peaceful and ordinary life made people feel very warm. Ace will never forget the expression on his father's face after his mother told him about her appearance. That hug

A guy who yells at his wife is absolutely no different from any father in an ordinary family.

But after falling down again without warning one day, Roger knew that the time had come. After he and his wife confessed everything, the man of the house disappeared. Then the Pirate King surrendered and spoke out on the execution platform in Roger Town.

If you want to change the whole world...

"If it's a girl, it'll be called Ann, if it's a boy, it'll be called Ace. That's what he decided at the beginning. The child's name will be Gol Ace. Our child..." This is

The final words of a mother who kept her baby in her belly for 20 months.

The scene ended abruptly here, and Ace also broke free from the dream-like scene. It was still the same white world, but this time there were two more figures in the world. The man looked like a towering mountain, and the woman looked like a towering mountain.

Like soft flowing water, they snuggled together and looked at Ace, smiling softly.

"Dad." The man smiled and nodded.

"Mom." The woman smiled and opened her arms to Ace.

After stumbling into his mother's arms, the already famous pirate cried like a child. Lujiu gently stroked Ace's head and hummed softly against her husband's shoulder.

It was a lullaby that I had never had the chance to sing. Roger looked at his wife and children, and gently held them in his arms with his strong arms.

Ace felt this warmth that he had never experienced before. Even if his grandfather Garp and his adoptive mother Dadan loved him again, the warmth of his biological parents could not be replaced by anyone.

After a long time, Roger suddenly opened his mouth to say something. But suddenly he saw his wife gently shaking her head, indicating to him to let him come. After gently reaching out her hand to wipe away the tears on Ace's face, "Lu" Jiu seemed to wake up.

Like a sleepy child, he patted Ace on the back and said, "Okay kid, it's time to leave."

"Go? Where to go?" Ace looked at his mother in confusion.

"Of course, leave here, here..." Roger said carelessly, but his expression immediately changed and he closed his mouth.

Lujiu retracted the hand that reached behind Roger without leaving a trace, and gently touched Ace's face. "Although I really want to hold you for a little longer, your father is right. You have arrived.

When you leave, otherwise you will never have the chance to leave."

"Why are you leaving! I want to stay here! I don't want to be alone anymore!" Ace hugged his mother tightly, fearing that the figure in front of him would disappear if he let go.

"Bah!" A thick finger hit Ace hard on the head, and the sudden blow made Ace stop crying.

"Hahaha, this is the punishment for lying children." Roger laughed and used his hands to make Ace's hair look like a chicken coop. "Stupid boy, you have never been alone. I was originally

I was also worried that Garp wouldn't be able to take good care of you, but you lived a wonderful life."

A familiar face slowly appeared in Ace's mind, thinking about the stories he had experienced with those people over the years, "Well, I lied, Dad. I have never been alone!...But

·······”

"Okay, kid, don't hesitate. I'm very happy to be able to hug you when you grow up, and so is Ace. You've grown up. And if you don't go back, some people will be sad, right?"

"Lu" Jiu kissed Ace's forehead tenderly, slowly smoothed Ace's hair with her fingers, and then gently touched his shoulder.[

Roger patted Ace's shoulder hard, looked down at Ace's eyes and said, "Go, kid! My story with your mother is over, but your story has just begun. Go use your eyes."

See more of the world and tell it to us when the story is over!"

"Yes! I understand!" Ace nodded heavily, with a naughty smile on his lips, "If I don't go back, there will be a crybaby who will cry for a long time." He hugged her hard for the last time.

After hugging his parents, Ace turned around and started running quickly. Roger and Lujiu cuddled together and watched as their son's back gradually disappeared...

ps: I have been thinking about this chapter for a long time. It was originally based on the fan art I saw on the Internet. Lazy Mao tried his best to write out what he thought of. Although keeping Ace alive will make the future plot more troublesome, writing fan art

The most important thing is to write what you want, right?
