The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

Advance city, sixth floor.

"Hey, hey, are my eyes blurred?"

"No, I saw it too..."

"Hahaha, this is rare to see in a thousand years!"

Amidst the sound of rattling iron chains, vicious big pirates rushed to the side of the cage one by one, watching Roman, led by Magellan, riding a cloaked slave and wearing a bubble hood, swaggering across the city arrogantly.

This look, this facial expression, the Tianlong people did not run away!

"Hehehe, how can you actually see world nobles here? Do these bastards think this is Chambord's slave market?"

"This is a good opportunity to teach this son a lesson—"

In an instant, overwhelming murderous intent and hostility attacked Roman from all directions! Although imprisoned and tortured, the sixth floor detains hundreds of millions of big pirates. Even separated by a cage, their aura can instantly turn ordinary people into idiots! but:

"Prefect Magellan,"

Roman turned his head nonchalantly to look at the tall figure in front left.

"The food in your advance city is good, these scumbags still have the strength to stare. ——Do you need me to report to reduce the military expenditure of the advance city?"

"Please don't do this, Roman Saint."

The tall warden replied flatly, then turned his head and opened his mouth:

puff!

A mouthful of venom was sprayed into the nearby cage, and the world's most poisonous poison instantly smeared the face of a criminal with a fierce face, causing horrific screams to resound in the cage.

"Ah, ah, Magellan, you lackey of the world government~~~"

"Ahem...the antidote...give me the antidote..."

"Listen up, scumbags!"

"I have the right and the ability to kill you on the spot, you better remember this."

The tall warden looked around, and a large group of big pirates with a bounty of hundreds of millions of dollars immediately seemed to have been poured cold water on their heads. after all:

Magellan's venom... Emperor-level masters are not willing to resist physically. What's more, now that everyone is wearing Hailoushi handcuffs, the power of the domineering fruit is greatly reduced, and if they continue to talk about it, it will be themselves who will suffer.

"This is where Ace is being held, Roman Saint."

Under the eyes of a group of big pirates who dared not speak out, and those top masters who were thoughtful, Roman rode a cloaked mount to a cage.

"Ace, someone wants to see you."

"This is Tianlongren, Tokevic-Roman Saint."

Facing Magellan's words outside the iron cage, the man sitting cross-legged on the ground with his arms hoisted by Hailoushi's iron chains slowly raised his head.

"I don't know what day-??!!"

"It's you!?"

Facing Ace who was too shocked to speak, Roman jumped off his mount and took a step forward.

"We meet again,"

"Son of the Pirate King."

After speaking, Roman raised a hand and gestured to Magellan next to him.

"Warden, could you please open the cell door?"

"...This is against the rules, Roman Saint."

"Warden, I'm asking you now.—You don't want to see us talking with 'commands,' do you?"

······

click,

As Hailoushi's cell door opened, Roman looked at Magellan with a stinky face again.

"So, can you give us a moment to talk alone?"

!

"You have crossed the line, Roman Saint."

Magellan lowered his eyelids directly, and the dragon-like aura on his body mixed with the gurgling liquid began to rise! At this distance, it can be said that as long as he is willing, he can kill Roman instantly by raising his hand. But Roman didn't panic at all:

"I have my measure, Warden Magellan! Or—"

Roman lifted his chin.

"You want to be the first warden to kill a Draconian?"

! !

"Ok,"

Seeing that Roman refused to give an inch, Magellan turned around with a dark face and left. ——As for the big pirates in the surrounding cages, no matter how stupid they are at this time, they dare not touch each other's bad luck.

As Magellan disappeared around the corner, Roman walked into the prison with the cloaked man behind him.

"You... you are a Celestial Dragon..."

Ace, who came back to his senses, still looked at Roman in disbelief, the crew member on his brother's ship.

The devil fruit user who warned me in Alabasta and let me escape on Banaro Island... And seeing how Magellan swallowed his anger just now, even if he is a Tianlongren, he definitely has no identity Low!

"It doesn't matter who I am,"

Roman looked at the scarred man in front of him and sighed.

"Has Lieutenant General Garp seen you?"

"····yes."

"Did he enlist you in the navy?"

"····yes."

"Then...you refused?"

"····yes."

Hey, Roman sighed again.

"Ace, you... I really don't know what to say."

"Up to now, you don't still hold the naive idea that everything can be solved once you die, do you?"

Facing the silent Ace, Roman rubbed his hair, this guy is really... smelly and hard. I don't know how Luffy has such a big brother who can't turn his head around.

Among the three Luffy brothers, Sabo is the most rational, Ace is the most reckless, and Luffy is right among them: the rubber that can bend and stretch is the one that thinks far.

"I came here because I wanted to ask you if I would regret it. But seeing you like this, I don't want to waste any time."

Snapped,

With a snap of his fingers, a silent cloaked man standing behind Roman took off his cloak, revealing:

A face exactly like Ace's!

? ? ?

"Hey, hey, isn't it..."

"I'm more knowledgeable, but there are people from Tianlong who came to 'rob prison' in an upright way?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, you are worthy of being the son of the One Piece King, you really have hands and eyes~~~"

Facing the voices around him, Roman just looked at Ace quietly.

"Your end is only one death! No matter how hard you struggle, you can't change the ending of Whitebeard stepping into the trap. Then—"

"Why not save your life? Whether it's atonement or compensation, at least you still have a chance to regret it."

brush~~

A piece of white paper in Roman's hand was quickly folded and deformed into the shape of a key. ——It has to be said that most of the locks in this world are still at the stage of the oldest three-bolt lock, which can be opened by Roman in a few seconds.

"follow me."

Facing the key handed over by Roman, Ace stubbornly tilted his head.

"Thanks, but—"

"Hahahaha, the son of One Piece is a dog for someone? This is a wonder of the world~~"

"Ace, you just follow this little brother Tianlong, he almost fell out with that old devil Magellan because of you!"

"Oh oh oh, not bad, looking at the majestic One Piece... No, it should be Whitebeard's 'son' who was ridden out by a Tianlongren. This life is worth it!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, it makes me a little bit excited, brother Tianlongren, look at my muscles—"

"Fuck off! People obviously 'like' delicate types~~"

In the four weeks of cynicism, time passed by every minute. Facing the key handed out by Roman, Ace just lowered his head stubbornly. The blue-skinned murloc who was also tied up next to him, Haixia 'Jinbei' also sighed.

"Roman Saint."

A plain but unquestionable voice sounded from behind, and Magellan didn't know when he had returned.

"It's a futile attempt, do you think this man is the one who will bow down to you Tianlong people?"

"Do not,"

Roman shook his head.

"I never expected him to bow to me."

Roman is just counting on Ace's sense of responsibility as a man to wake up.

Freedom is important? Face is very important? Whitebeard's reputation matters? ——So the lives of the Whitebeard Pirates are not important? Lieutenant General Garp's ten years of nurturing and sheltering grace is not important? Doesn't it matter that Lu Jiu died of two years of pregnancy because of him? Is it not important to have Luffy who is like a brother?

Among these people, does anyone want Ace to die here?

No! Absolutely not! !

As long as Ace's life can be saved, let alone be a navy, it is a dog of the Tianlong people. They are absolutely delighted to go too! In contrast to Ace...

Only for his stubborn 'repayment', only for his self-righteous 'dignity'... A guy who is unwilling to bow his head even for the sake of his relatives and friends, what a man!

Roman knew it, when he was injured and comatose when he was awakened, and Nami was infected with the virus, in order to seek medical treatment, Luffy knelt down to the people of Magnetic Drum Kingdom without hesitation, even if it was just a group of people he could easily kill of the weak.

"Ace, you don't deserve to be Luffy's brother!"

You are a brother.

clatter——

The key in his hand turned into a long sword, and at the moment when everyone was stunned, Roman turned around and stabbed out!

puff! !

The long sword pierced through the chest, and the black-haired man with freckles opened his mouth blankly, and blood slid down the corner of his mouth. And Roman has drawn out his long sword without hesitation and walked out of the cage.

"Send me out, Warden Magellan."
