Chapter 642 Brothers
...
(Did you know? I heard that drinking this sworn brotherhood wine will make you brothers!)
"Ahhhh!"
Sabo covered his head with a painful expression.
The disappeared memories were emerging from the depths of his mind one by one.
(We may not be on the same ship in the future, but our friendship as brothers will never change. No matter where we are or what our identities are, the bond between us will never break!)
(From today on, we are brothers! Cheers!)
Sabo, who had regained his memory, couldn't stop crying. He picked up the photo on the table and shouted loudly.
"Ahhh! I remember now!"
"Ace! He, he is! My brother!!"
Everyone was shocked.
?
"Ok?"
"Sabo, calm down for a moment."
Dorag and Yixiao were both stunned for a moment, then they both turned to look at Captain Gir who was smiling at the side.
"Chief, help me, I want to save Ace! Ace is my brother, I must save him!"
Upon learning that his good brother was about to be executed, the anxious Sabo was completely confused.
"Sabo, calm down first. We still need to think about this matter carefully!"
Drago was sweating profusely.
...
"Hehehe!"
Seeing that the revolutionary army had successfully implicated him, Rayleigh next to him shook his head and snickered in a somewhat unkind way.
I thought to myself, who told you to play tricks on this guy? Don't you know that this man has 800 tricks in his body? I just played a few dice, and finally signed a -year labor contract. The most terrifying thing is that he can make you unable to refuse, and you even enjoy it in the end.
"Hehe, come on Mihawk, it's none of our business, let's continue drinking."
It was none of his business and Rayleigh smiled as he filled Mihawk's glass with wine.
"Pluto Rayleigh, I wonder when you can fight me again?"
Mihawk's eyes were sharp, and he was a little upset about the sword duel many years ago.
"Hey, hey, hey, please spare me. Look at my hair. There's not even a single strand of color left. And you're already recognized as the world's greatest swordsman. Why do you insist on bullying an old man like me?"
Rayleigh drank his wine with a look of enjoyment, and refused by relying on his seniority.
Having said this, Mihawk was too embarrassed to say anything else and silently picked up the glass and started drinking.
Gel walked between the two men, picked up the bottle and poured himself a glass.
"By the way, Rayleigh, you know that Ace is Roger's son, right?"
Gel seemed to mention it casually, but after he finished speaking, he stared closely at the changes in Rayleigh's expression.
"Pfft! What?"
Rayleigh spat out the wine in his mouth in surprise.
"Is Fire Fist Ace the son of Pirate King Roger?..."
Mihawk's pupils also shrank.
"Haha, fate really plays a joke on us. Is the Pirate King's son going to be publicly executed too?"
After being surprised, Rayleigh filled his glass with wine again and continued drinking.
"However, this is the path he chose himself, and he probably doesn't want anyone to interfere with him. Fire Fist Ace is now Whitebeard's son. Just like what you just said, Boss Gol, Whitebeard will definitely save him. I believe that Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world, will be able to successfully rescue him."
Gel was not surprised by Rayleigh's attitude.
If Rayleigh really cared and really wanted to save Ace, then even if he didn't know that Ace was Roger's son before, he should not have had no reaction when Sengoku revealed Ace's identity during the live broadcast of the public execution.
Even when Ace died in the end, he said nothing, and the only tear he shed was for his old friend Whitebeard.
Maybe there are some secrets that I don’t know about, but as of now, the friendship between the Roger Pirates does not include each other’s sons!
"Aren't you going to do something?"
Ger asked with a smile.
"Gudong, gudong!"
"Haha, as an old man I won't get involved. After all, I've been retired from society for decades, and it wouldn't be appropriate for me to jump out and make a scene again."
Rayleigh finished speaking and drank a few more glasses of wine.
Gel thought to himself, I don't believe you, you old man.
When Luffy was being warmly greeted by his second uncle, you ran to rescue him at the speed of light. Why didn't you say that this was the path he chose?
When you brought Luffy back to the battlefield to pretend to mourn your dead relatives, why didn't you remember that you were a retired person?
Maybe they were influenced by some mysterious force in their minds, causing them to only recognize the person who inherited Roger's "hat" instead of his son.
"Haha, you're right. No one cared when Roger was executed, let alone his son. It's really not worth your intervention."
"Besides, the Navy Headquarters is strong and powerful. You old guys will just be sent to die. It's better to stay here and live a few more years."
"Boss Geer has a thorough understanding of the issues and every word he says makes sense."
Rayleigh flattered him reluctantly.
"But now I understand why Roger would rather take the risk of entrusting his child to his old rival in the navy than to you old buddies who used to be brothers."
Although he didn't care and had never thought about changing these people's ideas, Gel still couldn't help but complain.
Having said that, during the Battle of Marineford, it was not that no one from Roger's pirate group went to rescue Ace. At least they sent Buggy the Clown as the vanguard representative, and Red-haired Shanks, the user of the Face Fruit, to do the post-war summary, which was quite interesting.
"Haha, Boss Gel, please stop making fun of me."
Hearing the sarcasm in Gel's words, Rayleigh just smiled awkwardly.
"You are my boss now. If you want to go to Marinford to get involved, I can risk my life to accompany you, but I have to pay more."
"No need for that. Why would a retired person like you get involved?"
Gel refused directly.
...
Chabaoti Archipelago
"Is this the last island in the first half of the Grand Line? Next up is the new world full of pirates!"
Zoro looked around with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Wahahaha! This bubble is so interesting! Hey Chopper! Usopp! Come and try it!"
Luffy jumped higher and higher in the air, stepping on the bubbles that came out of the Yarchiman mangrove tree.
"Wow! That's awesome, Luffy! I want one too!"
Chopper clapped his hands with stars in his eyes, jumped on it and stepped on it, but he sank into it and was wrapped in bubbles and couldn't get out.
"boom!"
"Whoaaah!"
The bubble suddenly burst after flying to the height of the tree canopy, and Luffy fell to the ground screaming and almost killed Usopp.
“Hahahaha! This is so dangerous!”
"Damn it! Stop playing around, Luffy. I won't save you if you fall into the sea!"
Usopp's eyes were full of stars.
"Hey! Luffy, Usopp, save me!!"
Chopper shouted loudly as he was blown away by the wind.
"Is the next island the legendary Fishman Island? Great! I can finally see the beautiful mermaid lady! Hey! Stop playing around, stupid captain, and set sail!"
Sanji urged impatiently.
"Hehe, Fishman Island is in the deep sea. We can't go there without coating the ship."
"Coating?"
"Yes."
Robin explained the principle of ship coating to his uneducated teammates.
"Then I will go find a coating craftsman to help coat our ship, and I will leave the replenishment of supplies to you."
Kaku said as he adjusted his cap.
"Ok!"
Everyone began to act separately.
