Chapter 185
Outside the island, the three Marine battles.h.i.+ps and pirates face each other, but they do not work with each other but focus on the island.
The duel between Vice Admiral Lin Tian and Fire Fist Ace will surely shock the world tomorrow.
Ain looked at the island in front of her and asked worriedly: Hina, who will win? Lin Tian or the Fire Fist Ace?
Hina, thinking secretly, not at all thinking about Ain. She looked at Ains face with a cigarette in her mouth and muttered to herself. Lin Tians b.a.s.t.a.r.ds probability of victory should be greater. Four years ago, he was able to match Dark King Rayleigh, and he has been fighting in the New World for the past four years. Lin Tians battle strength was to a terrifying degree. However, the Fire Fist Ace is not weak either. Since he arrived at the Grand Line two years ago, with the powerful ability of Logia Mera Mera no Mi, triumphant progress has been made all the way. He became a great pirate by a large margin in a short time, but he later failed to win against Whitebeard. Even then, his battle strength is still extremely powerful. The b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lin Tian wants to win
Hina, who had been talking all the time, suddenly reacted to something wrong and glanced at the worried Ain, helplessly patting her head.
Big sister, can you give up this expression? From the conversation just now, the two of them are old friends. Likely, theyre just having a conversation.
On the flat ground, when everyone outside was wondering what kind of fierce battle would take place inside, there was another scene inside.
Ace, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you stole my roasted legs.
Hey, isnt this called grabbing? Anyone can take the roasted legs, but your reaction is slow Lin Tian.
Lin Tian stretched out, pointed at the goat on the grill, and said: I caught this goat, and I roasted it by my hand. I contribute the most. I should distribute the whole roast lamb.
Ace stretched out the same body and looked at Lin Tian, That said, I made this fire. If it werent for my fire, can you roast? Its me who makes the most effort.
Fire is very simple. Does it even count?
The two did not let go; their big eyes stared at the small ones. Just for this roasted lamb, they argued who did the most, and where is the slightest imposing manner that powerhouse should have? They were just two red-faced children fighting for something.
Hahaha
Suddenly, the two raised their heads at the same time and looked at each other, laughing. Its been a while since the last time they felt like this.
Over time, there have been earth-shaking changes between each other. Still, the bonds between their hearts have always existed, and they have not weakened at all but are getting deeper and deeper.
He bit the roasted leg in his mouth and praised: Lin Tian! After staying in the Grand Line for so long, your barbecue is still delicious, as delicious as before.
Thats obvious. Lin Tian looked proud, maybe he cant cook other dishes, but if he talks about barbecue, hes a real master level.
Ace glanced at the barbecue in his hand and couldnt help but think of the carefree and delighted days in the Windmill Village. He couldnt help but think of those silhouettes in his mind.
Unfortunately, only the two of us are here. Luffy is still in Foxia Village. It would be nice if Luffy were also there. I wonder what happened to Luffy as a Foxia Village.
Hearing this sigh, Lin Tians hand movement stopped, and he also recalled Luffy in his mind, recalling the joyful look.
Throwing a root of wood in the fire, Lin Tian said with a smile: If Luffy were here, how could we still taste the barbecue here? I am afraid that Luffy would have already robbed it all.
Thats right, for Luffy, his favorite is the barbecue. Back then, even though we hadnt finished roasting, hed kept rus.h.i.+ng to eat it. Recalling what happened that year, Ace also laughed.
Lin Tian continued: However, Ace, you have also been out for two years, and in another year, Luffy will also go to sea. I think it will not be long before Luffy appears on the Grand Line.
Speaking of this, the conversation turned, and some headaches said: According to Luffys ability to cause trouble, I am afraid that there will be some heaven-shaking, earth-shattering major event.
Haha Lin Tian! If Luffy doesnt cause trouble, is he still Luffy?
Thats right! Lin Tian reacted and turned to Ace, Ace, your ability to cause trouble is also not small. You made a name on the Grand Line.
Hearing Lin Tian says that, Ace laughed. When he first entered the Grand Line, he did a lot of heaven-shaking, earth-shattering things. Otherwise, he wouldnt have such a high bounty.
With some more seasoning, Lin Tian turned over the barbecue and asked: However, Ace, why have you disappeared in the past six months? I cant find you. Why did the Whitebeard Pirates?
Ace suddenly became silent, put down the barbecue in his hand, looked at the burning fire in front of him, fell into memory, and slowly said.
After going out to sea two years ago, by accident, I got the ability of Mera Mera no Mi. As he said, Aces hands turned into flames, burning blazing, and the flames reflected the twos faces.
Feeling the blazing fire, Lin Tian nodded and said: Mera Mera no Mi is indeed a powerful Devil Fruit, and it is also among the best in Logia. I knew this.
Then I started to travel from the Grand Line, during which several things happened, and my bounty amount also started to increase.
Suddenly, Lin Tian smiled. Ace did a few heaven-shaking, earth-shattering major events on the Grand Line. At that time, Lin Tian was almost shot and went to capture Ace, but at that time, something happened that made Lin Tian unable to go.
Ace, dont you know that at that time, your refusal to become Seven Warlords caused an uproar in Marine?
Ace slightly smiled and continued: Finally, I came to Sabaody Archipelago. Through your address, I found Dark King Rayleigh and asked him everything. When it comes to this, thank you, Lin Tian.
Hearing this, Lin Tian gradually reported with a smile on his face, and his hands stopped, and he spoke after a long silence.
Uncle Rayleigh; I told him everything.
In this matter, after the Sabaody Archipelago incident, Lin Tian had specifically looked for Uncle Rayleigh and told Uncle Rayleigh about Aces ident.i.ty and name.
At the same time, he also told Aces hatred of the man in his heart, as well as his childhood experiences. And he told Ace the address of Uncle Rayleigh, one day in the future; he might come to look for Rayleigh and ask everything.
Remembering that time, after Uncle Rayleigh heard about this, he sat alone at the bar on the platform for one night. The whole bar was filled with wine bottles, but he didnt say anything in the end.
Even Lin Tian doesnt know what Uncle Rayleigh will do in response to Aces inquiry.
En!
Ace whispered: That day, Uncle Rayleigh told me all night, telling me everything from the time I met my father to the last parting.
About this matter, Lin Tian doesnt know what to say. Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, that man is a legend, but in Aces eyes, he is just an incompetent father.
Everyone in the world knows that the man got the legendary one piece, gained fame and wealth, and was honored as the Pirate King by the world, possessing the wealth, fame, and power of the whole world.
But who knows that the man feels pain in his heart, and the big secret treasure in that heart might as well be worthless compared to his family.
When Ace was entrusted to the smelly old man, Lin Tian couldnt understand what was in that mans heart. It might be pain, guilt, or helplessness.
He thought about it, and finally, Lin Tian still asked: That Now, what is your opinion of that man in your heart.
Ace shook his head, with a self-deprecating tone, said: After that night, Ive got a general understanding of my father, who Ive never met. But the more I know, the more chaos in my heart. Perhaps as Rayleigh said, he has his own grievances but abandoning his own wife and son? But he died brilliantly, leaving my mother and me alone to bear the pressure from the whole world?
After that, Aces tone became excited, completely roaring, roaring out of his incomprehension, roaring out of his unwillingness, roaring out of his anger towards that man
At this time, Lin Tian just sat there quietly, slowly flipping the barbecue in his hand, being a quiet listener, listening to Aces thoughts buried in his heart.
In this world, except for himself and Luffy, no one can understand how riddled with scars Ace has in his heart and what kind of experience Ace had in his childhood because Ace only told their two brothers.
But how could Luffys rough nerves understand these things, so only Lin Tian can really talk to Ace, and only Lin Tian knows Ace best.
Only when Lin Tian talks to Ace would he change his usual calm mind and expose his thoughts that have been suppressed for many years.
When Ace finished speaking, Lin Tian did not express any feelings, just shaved a pot of water, and asked with a smile: Then now, why stay in Whitebeard Pirates? Dont you want to become the Pirate King and walk in the footsteps of that man?
gu lu gu lu
He
drank a few sips of water, Since I met dad, I dont want to be Pirate King anymore. I want to help my dad become Pirate King.
Dad?
Well, my dad is Whitebeard, and he treats us like father, so we all call him dad. In Whitebeard Pirates, I have found what I have been looking for.
Looking at the heart-felt smile on Aces face, Lin Tian knew that Ace had found what he needed. He couldnt help but show a happy smile on his face; happy for Ace.
Suddenly, Lin Tian patted his hands and stood up, The barbecue is finished, and the recollection of the past is finished, and it is time to do business next.
Hearing Lin Tians words, Ace finished the barbecue in two or three bites, stood up, the two eyes looked at each other, and a strong fighting intent broke out.
Marines and pirates, the two stand on different positions, and they are destined to have a battle from the beginning.
