Chapter 157 Ace and Sabo(1/2)
The first half of the Great Waterway.
A strange small boat spewing flames backwards was galloping on the sea.
The owner of this ship is the captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates, Portkas d. Ace, known as the "Fire Fist".
"Otluke Family"
While Ace casually released the fruit power to drive the fireboat, he was staring at a booklet that had been widely circulated on the sea.
Reading the contents of the booklet, Ace couldn't help but murmur:
"This Ultraluke family was exterminated by the Tianlong people"
"It's right that Sabo's family is right?"
"Sabor?"
A rough voice rang in Ace's ear: "Is that Captain Ace's friend?"
The speaker was Ace's capable subordinate, an elite pirate who belonged to the second team, and Marshall D. Tich, nicknamed "Blackbeard".
"Yes."
Ace caressed the brim of his cowboy hat that was blew in the sea breeze, and showed no concealment in front of Tic:
"That was my childhood brother, but he was dead many years ago."
"Hahaha"
But Tichi took a sip of rum and made the atmosphere liven up with his free and easy laugh:
"If you can become your brother, that Sabo must be a heroic man!"
"That's right, haha"
Ace laughed out loud after being spoken by Tichi in a few words.
Tichi is accustomed to observing words and expressions, and is generous and generous in his usual manner, and is open and straightforward, so he is very popular among the Whitebeard Pirates.
Ace, the new captain of the second team, is Ditch's direct boss. After several contacts, he regarded Ditch as a trustworthy friend and even referred to him as his most capable assistant.
"Captain Ace."
Tichi's expression was unchanged and regarded a young man who was twenty years younger than him as his boss. His words always made Ace feel his "heartfelt" respect:
"Since it's your brother's family that has been slaughtered."
Tichi's face showed a firm expression of going through fire and water for his brothers:
"Then let us brothers help you with revenge!"
"Even if he is a Seven Warriors Sea or Tianlong Man, our Whitebeard Pirates will never retreat at all."
"No."
But Ace shook his head and said with a frown:
"I always feel something is strange in this matter."
What kind of virtue is the Ultraluke family? How can he not know?
Less than two years ago, Ace, who had not yet gone to sea, heard of the infamous reputation of the new owner of the Ultraluke family, Stelley.
How could this Story become a hero who is not afraid of power in a blink of an eye?
Ace shook his head and just smiled:
"Tic, thank you for your kindness."
"We should concentrate on completing the tasks entrusted by my father!"
Ace asked Tichi again, "How far are we from our destination?"
"no problem."
Tic nodded and took out the chart, sextant, paper and pen and other tools to do the job of a navigator.
Under his big black bear's rough appearance, there is a very clever head hidden.
After a while, Tic completed the calculation of positioning:
"Captain Ace, we will be able to reach the Seven Waters Capital in half a day."
Ace nodded and responded with a smile:
"Fortunately, Tic, you followed this time."
"Otherwise, I'm not good at talking about business with the shipyard!"
Seven Waters are the world-famous first shipbuilding bases. Their products are well-known all over the world and are sold overseas. They are top-notch sea ships favored by major maritime forces.
The task given by Whitebeard to Ace was to ask him to buy warships for the Pirates in the Seven Waters Capital and then escort them all the way back to the New World.
The purchase amount this time is huge and the scale is amazing. It concerns the warship reserves of the Whitebeard Pirates, and must be carried out by reliable candidates.
Ace realized that he was not good at this, so he brought his most trusted subordinate, Blackbearded Ditch.
Faced with Ace's heartfelt thanks, Ditch just laughed and patted Ace on the shoulder:
"Hahaha Captain Ace's words are so exaggerated!"
"We are all living a life-long friendship!"
It is also the first half of the great waterway.
In a sea boat that looks like an ordinary merchant ship, a young man with scars on his left eye and blonde hair was lying in a coma on his bed.
"Saboo, Saaboo!"
A female voice with a little anxiety and sadness kept calling his name in his ear, but Sabo, who was unconscious, never responded.
The girl sitting beside his bed, wearing a slim skirt, barely covering her legs. Her pair of black stockings above the knee outlined the perfect leg shape, which looked very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
Moreover, her eyes were now drooping with tears, and her eyes were slightly red and swollen, which made her look even more pitiful.
"Kerra!"
A tall middle-aged fishman with long wavy hair waiting beside her advised in a deep voice:
"Don't be too anxious! Sabo will be fine!"
The anxious look on Kerra's face did not fade at all, but said in a crying voice that could not be suppressed:
"Master Haku!"
"Sabor has been in a coma for the whole day!"
"Just because I read that booklet! Why is this?"
"well"
Senior revolutionary cadre, Haku, the fishman, sighed helplessly:
"Eight years ago, when the leader and I rescued him, it was in the Kingdom of Goya. But he has lost his memory since then and cannot remember his family and surname at all."
"He kept talking about 'Outluke', 'Outluke'"
"I think this should have something to do with Saab's life experience!"
"Sab's life experience"
Kerra's expression became solemn:
"Will the Ultraluke family, which was exterminated by the evil dragon people?"
"Possible"
The fishman Haku nodded heavily.
"hateful!"
Kerra, who once was a slave to the dragon, couldn't help but recall the dark experience when she was young, and even more empathetic to the pain Sabo endured.
"Galen", a man who had never met, has died hundreds of times in various postures in Kerra's heart.
At this time, Sabo, who was unconscious on the bed, suddenly became aware of movement.
A moment later, Sabo, who was covered in cold sweat on his forehead, suddenly bounced off the bed, and shouted excitedly: "Luffy, Ace!"
"You're awake?"
A sudden joy popped up on Kerra's face.
But she immediately grabbed Sabo's collar and shook it, and cried in tears, "Do you know how worried I am?!"
"Kerra"
Only then did Sabo realize where he was. After a long time of rest, he said in a deep voice: "I remember who I am."
"I know everything!"
Kerrah wiped her tears and hugged Sabo and comforted her:
"Are your family and brothers dead? That Ultraluke family?"
