Chapter 587 Fire Fist
...
"Hey! Luffy! Why are you still here? Shouldn't you be running towards the docking port?"
Ace didn't expect that he would meet Luffy in a secluded alley nearby not long after he came out.
"Hey, Ace! You're here. I can't remember where the boat is parked. Hahahaha."
Luffy said with a smile.

"Damn it! Where did you go, Straw Hat Boy! You're so cunning!"
Smoker sat alone on the stone pier where the ropes were tied at the seaside port, in a daze. Even though he graduated from a prestigious university and specialized in how to deal with pirates, he could not have expected that Luffy, as a pirate captain, would not know where his pirate ship was parked. He chased all the way to the seaside port but came up empty-handed.
...
"Really? You're still as unreliable as ever!"
"Whoosh!"
Ace said as he jumped down from the roof and held out his hand.
"Sashi ignores me, Luffy!"
"Yeah! I haven't seen you in years! Ace!"
Luffy said, pressing his straw hat.
The two brothers burst into laughter, then held hands and began to wrestle on the wine barrel, recounting memories of their childhood mischief.
"By the way, Ace, why are you here?"
"Hmm? Didn't I leave you a message on Magnetic Drum Island? You didn't see it? Well, never mind. It's not an important matter. I just happened to be staying in this sea area on business, so I thought I'd come and see you."
Ace said as he took out his water bottle and took a sip of water.
"Business?"
"Yeah! By the way, I joined the Whitebeard Pirates, Luffy!"
"Whitebeard Pirates?"
"That's right!"
Ace turned around and pointed at the tattoo on his back.
"This is the symbol of the Whitebeard Pirates! It's my pride!"
"Luffy! Do you want to join the Whitebeard Pirates? Of course, come with all your friends!"
"I do not want it!"
Luffy refused decisively.
"Hahahaha, I knew it. Don't mind it. I'm just asking casually!"
Ace laughed, then spoke seriously.
"But Luffy! Whitebeard is the best pirate I have ever seen! So I have decided to help him ascend the throne of Pirate King! Not you, Luffy!"
"It doesn't matter! We can just fight then!"
Luffy said firmly.
"I will definitely become the Pirate King!"
"Hahahaha!"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
...
"Hey Ace! These are the companions I was telling you about!"
The brothers returned to the Merry and Luffy introduced them happily.
“There’s a swordsman who wants to be the best swordsman in the world, a navigator who likes to draw maps, oranges and Baileys, a chef who cooks delicious food, a liar and a reindeer. Oh, and the princess and the duck are also partners now, hahahaha!”
"Hey! Luffy! What the hell is this introduction?!"
Nami, Usopp, and Chopper were all very dissatisfied and wanted to beat the captain.
"Hello! My brother is under your care! I am very grateful!"
Ace jumped onto the side of the ship and squatted down and spoke politely.
"Ah, no no no, that's not the case."
Everyone quickly returned the greeting.
"This kid is ill-mannered and must have caused you a lot of trouble! Please take good care of him!"
"You're welcome!"
Everyone on the boat was very surprised. They didn't expect Luffy's brother to be such a polite person. It was a little difficult to adapt for a while.
"You brothers haven't seen each other for a long time. You must have a lot to talk about. Why don't you come in and sit down. I'll prepare food and drinks for you?"
Sanji suggested.
"Don't bother with that. You can do it right here."
Ace said.
"Clap!"
“Shhhh!”
Ace snapped his fingers lightly, and the cigarette in Sanji's hand lit up.
"Wow? That's a really convenient ability. Thank you."
...
"Hey! Fire Fist Ace! Straw Hat Luffy! Don't even think about running away! Today I'm going to let you know how powerful our Baroque Studio is! Hahahaha!"
When several people were chatting happily, five tall armed warships suddenly appeared behind them.
"Oh no! The billionaires from Baroque Studio are catching up with us!"
Looking at the logo on the sail, Princess Weiwei said worriedly.
"Luffy, you guys go ahead, I'll take care of them!"
Ace said as he jumped onto his surfing boat. The flame under his feet ignited the jet device, and the boat instantly rushed towards the five large ships like a rocket!
"Hey! Luffy, do you really not need help?"
Zoro asked calmly.
"Hahaha, don't worry! Ace is very strong! Even though he didn't eat the devil fruit before, I have never defeated him once!"
Luffy said as he sat on the railing at the stern of the ship and prepared to watch Ace's performance.
"What, you've never won once? An ordinary person?"
Nami said in surprise.
The others also gathered around.
"Then let's take a look at the strength of the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, the Great Pirate of the New World!"
Sauron said with a smile.
...
"Ahahaha! That guy is coming alone! Good opportunity! Quick! Aim the cannon! Get ready to shoot! As long as we kill this guy we can all get promoted and make a fortune!"
"Come on! Fire Fist Ace! If you have the guts, don't run away! Try to fight our five big ships head-on!"
Several billionaire elders in charge of command on the Baroque Studio ship shouted in provocation.
Ace was seen with his hands in his pockets. When the surfing boat was about to hit the big ship, he suddenly stepped hard on the boat and pushed it into the sea. He then turned into a ball of fire and flew over the big ship in the air, separating the man and the boat, shocking everyone.
"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot him down!"
The thugs from the Baroque Studio on the ship began to fire wildly at the flames in the air, but to no avail.
"Click!"
The small boat that had dived under the ship surfaced from the side of the five large ships, and Ace just happened to land steadily back on the surfing boat from the air.
Looking from the side at the five large ships that happened to be connected in a straight line, Ace's mouth curled up, his short black hair fluttered gently in the breeze, his eyes flashed with fiery fire, and then his clenched right fist began to emit a blazing flame.
"Take the move!"
"fire punch!!!"
"Boom!"
With Ace's roar, a ball of flames larger than the armed warships blasted out like a giant fist, instantly engulfing the entire fleet!
All that was heard was a series of deafening explosions, and flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire sea surface red.
When the flames gradually dissipated, only a mess remained on the sea. The five majestic armed ships of the Baroque Studio had long since turned into a pile of wreckage, floating on the sea and still burning.
Ace retracted his fist, raised the brim of his hat with his still burning index finger in a cool manner, and looked at the pile of wreckage floating on the sea with satisfaction.
"Wow!! This guy is so awesome!"
"Is he so strong? Sure enough, the monster's brother is a bigger monster!"
Everyone on the Merry was shocked.
