Chapter 045
Hear Luffy’s cries.
Ace smiled hard.
Go on:
“If that hadn’t happened to Saab…”
“Without your troublesome brother…”
“I must… Wouldn’t want to…”
“Alive…”
In the last moments of life.
The marquee lantern kept lighting up in Ace’s mind!
From my own childhood….
He doesn’t want to live in this world.
[If Gore · If D. Roger has a son? 】
[That will definitely be beheaded!] 】
Ace said with a smile
“For whom… I don’t want to… Don’t take your life seriously…”
“But… There’s no way…”
[I hope his last words can be written like this:].
[“Obviously a trash, but I was born, I’m really sorry! “】
[Hahaha, but how can Roger have a son? 】
Ace’s expression became stunned.
【Ace!! You’re making trouble in town again!! 】
[It’s noisy! If I had the ability, I would kill them all!! 】
【What!?? 】
He suddenly felt that his body was not so painful.
Is it because of the return of light?
“—By the way, if when… If you meet Dadan…”
“Help me talk to her…”
“I was dying to find out… Even that guy is nostalgic…”
Ace laughed hard, and his voice became lower and lower.
“And one more … Something that worries me…”
“I just can’t see you—”
“The moment the dream comes true…”
Because he said too much, blood flowed out of Ace’s mouth again.
Luffy listened to Ace’s voice in disbelief.
The whole person trembled because he was afraid!
He was never afraid!
At this moment, for the first time, there was finally something to be afraid of.
He was so afraid that Ace would leave him like this.
He was afraid he would never hear him again.
“But I believe.”
“You can definitely …”
“Because you are…”
“My brother…!”
Speaking of this, Ace’s voice suddenly became louder.
He felt so much more relaxed!
“Same as the vows made before…”
“My life… No regrets!! ”
When Luffy heard this, his voice trembled and said
“Nonsense!! You…… You lie!! ”
Ace couldn’t help but laugh twice when he heard it.
This caused blood to flow into the trachea, causing him to cough.
“Haha… Ahem… Not nonsense…”
“What I really want…”
“It’s not the so-called reputation…”
He lowered his eyes and said softly
“What I really want is…”
“I wish I could feel like, ‘It’s actually good to be born.'”
After saying these words, Ace felt that the vitality in his body was constantly passing.
“I can’t … Spoke loudly. ”
“Luffy… You put what I said next…”
“Later conveyed to … Everyone”
He used all his strength.
Squeezed out a smile.
The smoke behind him kept rising.
The fights and shouts were boiling.
Whitebeard looked sideways at Ace, tears like beads of broken threads.
“Daddy…”
“Everyone…”
“And… Luffy…”
【Give me out!】 】
[I’m here to take the head of the white-bearded man!] 】
“All the time…”
“To me who acts arbitrarily…”
“I inherited the demon bloodline…”
[Ace! I will definitely come to your rescue!! 】
[I am! Your brother!!! 】
Ace finally, couldn’t bear it anymore!
He hugged Luffy, and the forced smile could no longer be maintained!
Tears burst out of my eyes in an instant!
“Thank you—”
“Love for me!!!”
It was as if liberated.
At the end of his life, Ace finally showed a heartfelt smile.
The weak body slipped from Luffy’s arms.
Ace fell lightly to the ground.
He smiled and lay on the ground, his consciousness slowly dissipating in the wind….
[Grandpa…].
[I…].
[Is it really good to be born…]
Seeing Ace who fell to the ground, boundless terror shrouded Luffy’s head.
“Ace?”
He looked at Ace stupidly.
I thought of that time when I was a child-
[Think I’m dead?] 】
[What are you crying! 】
[Don’t just treat others as if they died!!! Idiot!! 】
【Tell you okay!!】 】
【I will definitely not die! 】
[With you, the cowardly brother, still in the world!!] Will I die? 】
You lied to me, right?
Ace?
You’re not dead, are you?
You answer me?
“Ace!!!!!!!!!!”
Luffy tilted his head and shouted!
The intense grief made him lose all consciousness!
The other side.
Karp closed his eyes tightly, tears overflowing his old face.
[If it’s a boy… It’s called Ace! 】
[The child’s name is – Gol · D. Ace! 】
