"Luffy… "
Garp stood in front of Ace wearing brown leather shoes, his broad back blocking their eyes from each other.
Looking at the little man running towards the execution platform below, and meeting those firm eyes, Garp took a deep breath: "You... are all a bunch of idiots."
Ace was silent when he heard this, and suddenly his tears turned into laughter.
"Hey! Haven't you already known about this kind of thing? Old man."
“…”
Garp didn't speak, but slowly clenched his fists.
Whoosh!
Below, Luffy ran to the side of the execution platform, stretched his arms upward, grabbed the beam, and then launched himself up.
"Get out of the way, Grandpa, I want to save Ace!"
"Arrogant!"
Suddenly, Garp's eyes widened, and a terrifying aura suddenly surged.
Buzz!
The jet-black domineering energy wrapped around his fist and solidified it into armor. Garp took a half step back, looked at Luffy who kept flying up, and raised the iron fist that represented justice.
Bang! !
Two fists of different sizes collided heavily, and instantly the air exploded and waves flew.
"Grandpa, do you have to stop me?!"
"Asshole! I'm a navy man!"
The two were separated at the first touch, and Luffy was knocked directly onto the high platform. Then he jumped up tenaciously and flew to fight again.
"Then I'm not welcome!"
Rubber rubber...flame boomerang!
Bang! !
The fire light scattered, blocking the sight of the two people.
Looking at the small fist, Garp suddenly remembered that they had such a touch more than ten years ago, when Luffy was just born.
But at that time, one of them was lying in the cradle, and the other was squatting carefully next to him. Both of them had silly smiles on their faces and pressed their fists against each other.
"Pfft hahahaha, this is a good material for becoming a navy!"
Karp still remembers what he said at that time.
But now, with the same action, everything has changed.
He represents the navy, and the baby back then represents the pirates. The two are incompatible with each other.
No one was at fault, it was their fault that they took a different path.
"ah!!!"
Luffy roared to vent his pain, gritting his teeth ferociously.
How cruel is Garp's fist
Luffy has the most say in this matter.
Even Luffy, whose natural constitution as a rubber man reduced the bludgeoning effect by 50%, couldn't bear it at all. The crisp sound coming from his finger bones told him that his arm had reached its limit.
But Luffy didn't give up. No matter who was in front of him, he would save Ace.
"Well, that's enough..."
Garp thought suddenly.
"As a grandfather, I can only do this."
Boom!
Thinking of this, Garp felt a sharp pain in his lower back.
Ace suddenly jumped up at this moment and pushed his head on Garp's waist like a cannonball, causing Garp to stagger.
"Now, Luffy!"
"good chance!"
Luffy's eyes lit up, he gritted his teeth and burst out with all his strength, pushing his fist sharply.
Bang! !
While a group of people were watching in surprise, confusion, and shock, the dignified "Navy Hero" and "Iron Fist" Garp was punched in the chin by this little-known little pirate.
"Ho... ah!"
Blood flowed out from his teeth, and Garp's tall body flew straight back, and was punched away by Luffy!
"What?!"
"impossible!!"
"Lieutenant General Garp, how could that happen?!"
Countless marines and civilians who paid attention to this scene stood up in shock, looking at the flying figure with horror on their faces.
As the three major legends that cannot be bypassed in this era, Garp's power has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as a generation grows up.
That was the "Navy Iron Fist" that forced "One Piece" Roger into desperate situations several times!
how come…
"Hey, Garp!"
Lieutenant General He was very calm. He was only surprised for less than a second, and then he understood.
A new storm has emerged.
The Navy needs more heroes.
Only when he, as the older generation, falls to the altar can he make room for those who come after him and let them continue to write legends.
Probably... that's it.
Plop!
After blasting away Garp, Luffy turned over and landed on the execution platform, gasping for air, and then suddenly raised his head: "Grab my hand, Ace, I will take you out of here!"
Mr.3 was killed by Ron long ago, and the Candle Fruit was picked up by the Revolutionary Army. Without the key, Luffy couldn't open the Sea Tower Stone handcuffs, so he could only take Ace away through clumsy methods.
"Um!"
Ace woke up from the shock of his successful sneak attack and let Luffy's extended rubber arm wrap around him.
Seeing this, Luffy grinned happily and dragged Ace around to prepare to jump.
Looking at the bright sky in the distance.
For a moment, Ace really thought he could escape.
You can continue to return to the sea and return to everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates.
However…
Boom! !
"That's it, you two."
puff! !
The body that flew out stopped momentarily and lay heavily on the execution platform.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood on the ground, Ace felt the leather shoe on his back and turned around with difficulty.
"Cang, Long!"
The dream is shattered and the cruel reality resurfaces.
With one foot on Ace's back, Ron held the Thunder Dragon Fangtian Halberd upside down with both hands behind his back, and crackling electric currents shot out in all directions, indifferently.
"Time's up, execution!"
Now that Garp has made his choice, it's time to end this farce.
"don't want!!!"
Luffy, who was pulled back from mid-air, hung on the side of the execution platform. His eyes widened in horror as he watched this scene and screamed angrily.
The mighty domineering aura spread out, proving that he has "the qualifications of a king".
But his domineering fluctuations could not do anything to the now incomparably powerful Ron. It was like a breeze blowing on his face, which was insignificant.
immediately…
laugh! ! !
The thunder halberd fell, blood splattered everywhere.
Accompanied by the dazzling lightning, the Thunder Dragon Square Heavenly Halberd penetrated Ace's chest without mercy, and the ferocious halberd tip penetrated out, nailing him to the execution platform.
For an instant, everything was lonely.
Luffy watched with wide eyes as Ace flopped down, one arm hanging on the edge of the execution platform, and stopped struggling like a dead dog.
Tick tock, tick tock.
The flowing red blood slowly dripped down the fingertips and hit Luffy's face, which was hanging on the edge of the execution platform. The liquid that went bad due to the awakening rage burned quickly, bringing a scalding hot touch.
But Luffy no longer bothered to wipe it, and looked at Ace blankly, the look in his eyes quickly dissipating.
"No… "
"This is not true..."
In response, Ace tried his best to raise his head and gave Luffy an ugly and gentle smile.
"Stay alive, Lu... fly!"
Then…
Snapped!
Struggling to break free of the rubber arm, Luffy fell off the high platform.
Ace stood up and leaned back, letting the crescent blade pass through his chest and tear him apart. Then it was like a crazy beast, roaring like a human being.
The sparks that kept lighting up under the suppression of Hailou Stone were swimming on his body. With his hands behind his back, Ace slammed into Ron.
He wanted to buy time for Luffy, even if it was just for a second.
Looking at Ace who was running towards him, Ron raised the corners of his mouth and sighed.
"Awakening and going berserk, it's such an unreasonable state..."
Even though the restraining effect of Hailou Stone existed, he couldn't kill him with one blow.
"But it's a pity."
Ignoring Ace who was running towards him, Ron turned slightly sideways, and the two generals behind him who served as executioners each held a bucket of water and poured it on Ace.
Wow!
Hiss... hiss...
"ah!!!!"
Like red-hot charcoal poured on cold water, a large amount of white smoke came out of Ace's body, and at the same time, a tooth-wrenching "hissing" sound appeared, causing him to stumble to the ground.
The flame body curled up on the ground, and Ace opened his mouth in pain. His skin became charred and carbonized, slowly tightening, and finally turned into charcoal and lost all movement.
Awakening and Rampage does provide natural ability users with strong survivability, but it also makes them more severely restrained by their attributes!
At this moment, the charred corpse couldn't see Ace's original appearance at all. The whole person had shrunk by more than half. It was obviously the corpse of an adult, but it was as big as a child.
Ron looked at this scene with slight horror. The devil fruit really looked like a devil!
Once swallowed by it, the consequences will be simply unsightly!
but.
Even if he knew that this was a reflection of his future, would he choose to give in
Looking at the quiet square, Ron put the thunder halberd behind him and shouted loudly.
"Execution completed!!"
Everyone fell silent, then waved flags and cheered wildly.
"oh!!!"
"Long live the Navy!!!"
At this point in the war, the navy finally won the victory with its overwhelming advantage.
