Chapter 43

Just one punch,

sent the highest-combat-power Daski flying; seeing this, the Marine soldiers behind immediately leaped forward to act as a human cushion for her.

"Tsk! Beauty truly is popular everywhere," Sima Di remarked.

"Oh? Do you like that bookworm type?" Robin said in surprise: "I can be that too."

"Temperament doesn't matter; I simply like big ones," Sima Di said, raising an eyebrow: "Of course, if the temperament happens to be a bit changeable, that would be quite interesting too."

Robin looked at Sima Di with a half-smile, saying nothing more.

Big ones, huh?

Then she was quite confident about that.

On this side,

Ace was not as impatient as Luffy; instead, he leisurely flew to the sides of those ships, stretched his muscles and bones, then clenched his fist to ignite a ball of flame, followed by a punch that blasted out a magnificent giant fire fist!

This was Ace's signature ultimate move—

"Fire Fist!"

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

Five consecutive booms,

and five ships were directly blasted in half at the waist, burning fiercely and leaving no chance of survival.

One-hit KO!

Witnessing this scene, Sima Di unexpectedly discovered...

【Ding! Congratulations on signing in at the famous scene "Ace's Fire Fist!", receiving the sign-in reward "Saitama's Ordinary Punch"!】

——————————

"Saitama's Ordinary Punch": Saitama, whose strength has reached the ultimate limit, can blast through Shanfeng even with just an ordinary, unremarkable punch!;

——————————

Oh ho!

Sima Di never expected to sign in at a second famous scene here with Ace.

Truly a polite older brother, so generous!

Putting aside everything else,

if Luffy gets hurt causing trouble again, Sima Di will definitely heal him immediately!

As for stopping him from seeking out Blackbeard...

Shanks and Bai Hu Zi couldn't dissuade him, so Sima Di didn't think he had the ability to do so.

Besides, if Ace doesn't go throw his life away, how can the most famous "Marineford War" be triggered?

That was a peak battle where famous scenes appeared in abundance!

"At most... I'll just ensure you don't die when the time comes," Sima Di muttered.

"What?" Robin asked from the side.

"Ha, nothing."

Just then, Luffy finished the battle and returned; he had originally thought he would surely win so quickly, but upon seeing Ace sitting calmly and the burning wreckage of pirate ships on the sea,

the joy on his face vanished, his expression turning sour and very displeased.

"The Logia type is so convenient..." Luffy said gloomily.

He wasn't jealous of Ace or anything; it was simply because he had been beaten by Ace since childhood, and he had thought he could turn the tables this time, only to find the gap had grown even larger.

"Hahaha—Luffy, how can an older brother be worse than his younger brother?"

Zoro and Nami had also boarded the Going Merry at this moment.

Ace immediately politely said: "I am Luffy's brother, Ace; Luffy has been a trouble to everyone's care! Thank you for your trouble!"

"Ah this..."

The two were a bit stunned.

But they instinctively returned the courtesy: "N-no trouble at all!"

"We will have to trouble you to take care of him in the future too!" Ace bowed again.

"It's only right!" The two returned the courtesy again.

This even made Sima Di, standing nearby, laugh.

Isn't that being too polite?

Sanji also smoothed things over: "You two brothers rarely reunite; you must have a lot to say, right? Sit down and I'll brew some tea so we can talk slowly."

Ace readily agreed.

Everyone else did not interfere with the brothers' reunion, chatting among themselves on the deck.

"Luffy's brother is so polite."

"I thought he would be a more willful guy."

"And he's a member of the Whitebeard Pirates; that's one of the Four Emperors' pirate crews!"

Sima Di did not join the discussion because he suddenly discovered an interesting question.

That was—

? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig? Pig?

43. The Unserious Robin! Swapping the Crown Prince for a Civet Cat?

Benefiting from "peak mortal wisdom," Sima Di suddenly discovered a problem from some clues—

Garp......

Could he have played the trick of swapping the Crown Prince for a civet cat?

Luffy's personality, while very similar to Garp's, is a direct mold of Luo Jie!

So......

Could it be that Ace is Garp's biological grandson, while Luffy is the adopted one?

After all,

Ace's personality looks nothing like Luo Jie's in any way.

On the contrary, Luffy,

not only possesses the same talent of "listening to all things," but also shares the same "natural optimism," or rather, a love for causing trouble.

Hmm......

If this were true, then Garp would truly be incredible!

A short while later,

it was time for lunch, and Zoro made a table full of delicious food.

Ace ate while giving a thumbs-up, having no time to speak at all.

Zoro's cooking skills are truly loved by everyone!

At this moment, Luffy had no concept of "relatives"; the food made him recognize no kin, and he and Ace staged a "food抢夺战" (food抢夺战).

This time, Ace's Devil Fruit ability couldn't be used, so Luffy used "Gum-Gum......"

—Using a technique just to eat a meal, no one else would do that.

After eating and drinking their fill,

Ace also explained his destination for this trip—he had found traces of the Blackbeard they were pursuing in Yuba.

"We will pass through Yuba; we can drop you off then," Nami said.

But Ace shook his head.

"My Charger is still parked at the port; I have to go get it back."

Speaking of this,

in One Piece, most ships are monsters that block out the sky, but only the Charger, this small and agile single-person speedboat, stands out as a clear stream.
