Haha, Ace."
Luffy was extremely excited.
He did not expect to see his big brother here.
"Luffy, you've grown taller."
Ace grinned and said to Luffy.
"Leave this place to me. I'll meet you later.”
When Luffy heard this, he nodded vigorously and turned around to leave quickly.
He wasn't worried that Ace would be in danger.
Since Ace said that he would settle it, he just had to believe him.
Smoggy looked at Luffy who was leaving quickly and frowned.
Almost again.
After that.
Smogue looked at Ace and said unhappily.
"Portacas D. Ace,"
"Get lost."
"Haha, do you think I'll let you go?”
Ace grinned.
The flames on his body soared into the sky.
It covered the entire street.
The navy soldiers.
He felt a wave of heat coming at him. She subconsciously retreated.
"Damn it."
Half an hour later.
Beside the port.
In a tavern.
"Luffy, who is he? Is he your friend?"
Usopp looked at the tall and handsome young man in front of him and asked curiously.
"Hahaha, Ace is my brother.”
Luffy said happily as he stuffed food into his mouth.
"Brother?"
The members of the Grass Hat Pirates were a little surprised.
"Luffy, you actually have a brother?"
Nami was also surprised.
They had been with Luffy for so long, but they had never heard Luffy mention it.
Moreover, his strength was too terrifying.
He alone had stopped Smoggy and a few hundred navy soldiers.
"Yes, I grew up with Ace.”
Luffy swallowed the meat in his mouth and said casually.
"You didn't even tell us.”
Sanji was smoking at the side, staring at Ace curiously.
They had all seen the commotion from the battle just now.
A pillar of fire that was more than ten meters tall shot into the sky.
He could feel the temperature increase even from a distance.
Moreover…
He seemed to be a natural fruit ability user with the invincible ability of elemental conversion.
"Luffy, what are you doing in Arabastan? Where are you going next?”
Ace looked at Luffy, who was eating and drinking, and took a sip of beer.
"Me?"
"I made an agreement with Princess Wei Wei to defeat the Sand Crocodile and free her country.”
"Sand Crocodile? The Seventh King, Wu Hai, was a good opponent.”
Ace didn't think that Luffy couldn't beat him. He knew his brother's strength and tenacity.
It seemed unbelievable.
He could always complete it.
"Ace, what are you doing in Alabastan?”
"I'm here to track down a traitor on our ship…"
Ace said.
Suddenly.
There was a sudden commotion outside the door.
" Sand Crocodile?!"
"Why is Krogdahl here?”
"Run…"
……
There was a large number of frightened and panicked voices outside the door.
Immediately after.
A large number of people fled from the entrance of the tavern.
"Sand Crocodile?"
"Hahaha, looks like I don't need to go to the capital.”
Luffy's eyes lit up, and he swallowed the food in his mouth. His eyes were burning with the flames of battle.
"Looks like you're quite lucky, Luffy…"
Ace laughed and was about to say that he could help him.
At the entrance.
The figure of a cold youth appeared.
He was wearing a golden robe inlaid with luxurious patterns. He looked like a sacred sacrifice and had an extremely noble aura.
The moment Ace saw him.
The smile on his face froze, and his pupils constricted.
The moment Luffy saw Noah.
His eyes lit up.
He felt that this person was very special.
He was about to say something.
Ace suddenly held Luffy down.
"Ace?"
Luffy was puzzled.
However, he saw the warning in Ace's eyes. He opened his mouth but did not say anything.
However…
Before Ace could heave a sigh of relief.
The mysterious man suddenly turned his head and looked at him indifferently.
His gaze was high and mighty.
It was filled with arrogance and coldness.
The moment Ace was targeted.
His heart contracted.
His body was stiff and his back was cold.
This was completely an instinctive reaction of the body when it encountered an intense crisis.
The sand crocodile standing next to Noah.
After seeing Ace, he recognized him at a glance and revealed a gloating smile.
The feeling of being targeted by Noah.
He was deeply engraved in his heart.
That fear.
He still had lingering fears.
However…
He was not the one experiencing this feeling.
It was Ace.
In addition.
He didn't say anything about Ace's identity.
He believed that Noah must have seen the intelligence on the White Beard Pirates.
He also knew that Ace was the captain of the second division of the White Beard Pirates.
However…
Since Noah didn't make a move, he wouldn't say anything clever.
"Let's go."
He glanced at Ace indifferently.
Noah ignored him and walked towards the warship at the port.
He knew Ace's identity.
He also knew that he was the key to the war.
But now was not the time.
He was not ready yet.
He watched Noah leave.
Ace heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Noah was not interested in him.
In just two to three seconds.
He felt that it was longer than an hour.
At the same time.
Ace realized that his forehead was covered in sweat.
"Ace, what's wrong?"
Luffy was curious.
Ace's reaction was too strange.
"That guy just now is very terrifying. Luffy, don't provoke him.”
"At the very least, don't provoke him before you're strong enough.”
Ace said with a serious expression after he recovered.
When the Grass Hat Pirates heard Ace's words, their eyes were filled with curiosity.
They had seen how strong Ace was before.
However, that mysterious young man just now was actually able to scare him to such an extent.
Just how terrifying was he!
"This is yesterday's newspaper. You can take a look.”
Ace took out a newspaper from his backpack.
He placed it on the table.
Nami picked up the newspaper.
When he saw the headline and picture on the front page.
Her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.
"That person just now was a navy general?!”
"You must be joking to drown the entire island with yellow sand.”
"This is something that can be done by humans!”
Sauron Sanzhi, who was reading the newspaper behind them.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
From the aerial view of the picture, one could see at a glance how vast the island was.
However…
At this moment, the island was covered in yellow sand and looked extremely desolate.
Luffy was also dumbfounded.
Although he was confident, he was not conceited.
He had bet his life on fighting a dozen sand crocodiles.
Only then would he have a chance.
Against an opponent of this level, he did not even have the slightest chance of surviving.
"So, I told you not to provoke him.”
Ace shook his head.
Only his father could defeat an enemy of this level.
If he provoked them rashly, he would die.
"In addition, the Sand Crocodile has been taken away by him. The crisis in Alabastan might have been resolved.”Ace guessed.
Everyone was shocked.
Outside.
There was another commotion.
"What happened today? First the sand crocodile, now Hawkeye.”
"Is the Sea of Seven Martial Arts going to have a meeting here?!”
"It seems like they are here to challenge me."
Sauron, who was reading the newspaper at the side, heard this.
Without hesitation, he grabbed his saber and rushed out of the tavern.
