Pirate, start as Luffy's little boy

In this way, Ace learned etiquette from Maginot.

After Luffy recovered, the three of them returned to their usual lives.

Still go to town and cause a scene, and after eating the Overlord meal, bow politely but not too much to the boss.

Still discussing.

I met the blind bear who injured Luffy again, and that day he invited the Dadan family to eat bear meat hot pot together.

Fight gangsters, survive in the forest, fight wild beasts, and fight the "strongest boss" Garp.

In this way, time continues to leave traces on the three of them. It never stops. In the blink of an eye, it flies away from the three of them like a galloping horse.

Seven years passed, and it was time for Ace to go to sea.

........

The new year, January 1517, 1 in the Haiyuan calendar, is also Ace's birthday.

This guy is also anxious and will go to sea the day he turns seventeen.

Last night, Ace was taken out by Bai Yun to buy things for going to sea. Although the process was very difficult, the shop owners saw them as if they were seeing ghosts. When they saw them paying, they wanted to see ghosts even more.

"What's there to buy? Bai Luck, don't bother me."

Ace complained as he followed Bai Yun.

Bai Yun rolled his eyes at him, so you should put down the dagger.

If you don't want to buy it, don't buy it and save some money. Anyway, he is just responsible for delaying time.

"Let's go! Go buy a suit of clothes. It's not your birthday tomorrow, and you have to go to sea. You have to look like a human being."

Bai Yun took Ace and ran to the clothing store.

Before Ace could refute, what do you mean? I don't look like a "human" now.

The owner of the weapons store was stunned for a moment. Did they not pay back the dagger?

.......

When he arrived at the clothing store, Ace felt a little uncomfortable. He had never bought clothes before. Over the years, the clothes for the three of them were all made by Maginot.

It's one thing if he hasn't bought it before, but he doesn't know what paying for it means.

Seeing Ace stunned, Bai Yun got him a denim suit, a black vest, black denim shorts, wristbands, and a belt, and then pushed him into the fitting room.

The owner of the clothing store was a middle-aged woman who was somewhat rich. She looked at them with panic. After all, their reputation was just like that. For shop owners like them in border towns, especially restaurants and pharmacies.

While Ace was changing clothes, Bai Yun walked around the store and suddenly noticed a very iconic cowboy hat.

It's an orange cowboy hat with "Smile" and "Sad" badges on the brim.

Bai Yun picked it up with a smile, and Ace on the other side opened the curtain and walked out with a swish.

Bai Yun walked over and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, this is how a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. He looks like a dog when he wears it. He's quite handsome, Ace."

"Yeah?"

"It's not like I'm a dog-like person. Are you praising me or hurting me?"

Ace nodded with a smile, and suddenly realized something was wrong. He was praising him, but he seemed not to be praising him.

Bai Yun didn't answer and asked him to look in front of the mirror, then sneaked up from behind and put the hat on Ace's head.

Looking in the mirror again, it completely matched the Ace in my mind's memory.

"How about it, match it with this hat."

"Didn't you say that Luffy loves to laugh, but I am much more indifferent, although I won't cry."

"The two badges on the hat represent the 'protection' of our two brothers on you during the voyage."

"Brother Ace."

Ace smiled and adjusted his hat, "It looks pretty good."

"But, Bai Yun, as an older brother, you have to protect your younger brother. If you are protected by your younger brother instead, you will be laughed at."

Bai Yun smiled back, whatever you say, I'm also talking nonsense.

Then his eyes glanced towards the door, and they had lived together for seven years.

The three of them even knew whether each other had moles on their butts, so there was still a tacit understanding.

Ace nodded slightly, and the next second, the two of them ran away immediately, shouting politely.

"Thank you for your gift."

........

Along the way, Bai Yun was looking for time here and there to prevent Ace from going back.

When the clock hands moved towards 12 midnight, which represented the arrival of the second day, Bai Yun let Ace go home.

Ace said good luck while pushing the door of Dadan's family open.

"Happy birthday!!!"

Luffy held a big cake and other bandits to welcome Ace home.

The house had become different, bustling with activity, thanks to the setup of the Macchino and the drinks provided.

A banner hung on the wall that read, "Happy 17th birthday to Ace."

Ace held back the tears from falling from his eyes. In the past, he hated celebrating birthdays, his own birthday.

Just like Dadan now, although he likes this kind of atmosphere, he still insists that a birthday is too troublesome.

Ace was equally stubborn, "I said Bai Lun, why are you trying to stop me from going home?"

"So that's what they do."

"It's not necessary, but if you are all ready, let's go..."

"Luffy! You drooled all over the cake!!"

Halfway through, Ace saw Luffy's saliva dripping on the cake, and immediately lost control.

Looking at them, Bai Yun held his forehead and smiled bitterly behind him. It seemed that letting Luffy carry the cake was a wrong decision.

........

Separation will come.

Happy times will pass but they will come again.

The next day, on the coast of Mount Colpo.

Ace is about to take his first step out to sea.

A small sailboat slowly sailed away from the coast. Ace turned around and faced everyone who came to see him off.

Luffy, Bai Yun, Maginot and other bandits from Dadan's family. Unexpectedly, the mayor of Windmill Village also came.

"Come on! Ace!!"

Luffy yelled.

"Just wait and see, I will be famous in the sea soon!!"

Ace replied confidently.

In this way, Ace started his sailing journey, carrying the hat that Bai delivered to him, and the hat was also tied with a skull sign that Luffy had made himself for a month, and took the two brothers' "Guard", running towards his future.
