Fire Fist of the Rebirth Pirate Comes to the World

Chapter 22: Let's Get Married

"Time flies," Yuna sighed slightly as she looked at the golden patch of gold sprinkled by the rising sun, "The one month deadline is just around the corner, or perhaps this will be the last sunrise."

With that in mind, she turned her head to cast her remaining light on Ace, lying in a clearing, facing the vaulted blue sky, the morning light shining on his face, unblinking as he looked into the golden sun's eyes, which seemed to be overflowing with the same warmth and lightly turning over.

He was indeed stronger than he had ever been, stronger than he had been a week ago, and Yuna had no doubt that almost from the moment she had known him, his power had been climbing in spurts, endlessly, as if there was no end in sight.

"What are you lamenting?"

"It's nothing, it's just been two years."

The gentle voice came from in front of him, Ace slightly bowed his head, the slender figure of a young girl with a sweet and calm face, particularly touching under the sunrise.

"Yeah, it's been two years, time flies so fast." Ace smiled and beckoned to Yuna, who came over nicely and snuggled into his arms, feeling the softness of the young girl's body in his arms, Ace smiled slightly and secretly transported fire under his feet, the hot and restrained heat penetrating into the ice, and the solid floating ice beneath Ace's feet suddenly melted into a small hot spring pool.

"The temperature is just right" Yuna took off her shoes straight away, barefooted, and cheerfully plunged her jade feet into the warm water, inhaling the fresh sea breeze deeply, "If any other natural ability user knew you were using your ability like that, they'd probably be pissed off."

"Oh," the two laughed at each other.

"Ace, why do you like fighting so much?" Yuna curled up comfortably, resting on Ace's arm and whining softly, her tone even more mixed with a little confusion. Time and time again, time and time again, from the East Sea to the New World, from an unknown pawn to a famous sea pirate Among the people she knew, Ace was probably the one who had the strongest and clearest will to the dream he held on to.

Perhaps that was the reason why she would have fallen in love with him in the first place... it was a very happy thing to face life so clearly and live without regrets.

"It's just simple love." Ace rubbed his chin against the other's hair, greedily sniffing the scent of the hair, "I like fighting, I like the feeling of unbridled youth and sweat when fighting, constantly fighting the strong, constantly breaking through the existing level, isn't that the 'freedom' I've been looking for all along? "

"Like now, don't you feel like feeling happy?" Yuna wrapped her arms around Ace, her lips on Ace's ear, the phantom scent making him feel a little bit more than he was, and she whispered, "I'm happy to be in your arms right now."

"I know." Ace's body stiffened abruptly, then a strange warmth rose from his heart, recalling the bits and pieces with the woman in his arms, smiled and nodded, then shook his head, "But I'm not satisfied with this, please forgive me for not being able to remain the only faithful to love, because, I still have dreams!"

Ace stood up from the ground with strong, strong arms, and embraced the tiny body of the slightly stunned girl, holding her tightly, as if to make up for a desolation, never wanting to let go again.

"So I'm always running away, Bonnie is like that, Cornelius is like that, White Star is like that too I'm not not wanting to, but I'm afraid, always worrying about the gains and losses, worrying that if I die one day in a battle with someone else, will they come back crying and dying, will they not even want to die to help me get revenge, will they go with me to uhh!"

Before Ace could finish his sentence, he was sealed with soft and green lips, almost indistinguishable from the first time, panicked, lacking skill, but overflowing with love.

"I like to be a pirate, not blinded by the so-called justice of this world can be so beautiful, pirates can also be flesh and blood, full of heroism and justice, but what really makes me not want to leave this pirate region," lips lightly parted, as usual, snuggled in each other's arms, voice full of tenderness.

"It's because I met you ah."

Once a friend like a friend, once a partner like a partner, and now a lover like a lover perhaps, between men and women, there is really no such thing as pure friendship.

"I often have this feeling that you are always far away from me, is this jealousy? It's ridiculous, I would have such emotions because, even if I'm strong, I'm still a girl, girls are always weak when it comes to emotions, why can't you be more proactive!"

As if to retain the warmth of the embrace and hold his body tightly, Ace's mind echoed with the same sad and listless feeling of regret and desolation.

"I can see that Cornelius likes you too, you don't have to explain, you can see that's right and it's not just Cornelius, Bonnie's words, she's actually the one you were supposed to really like, I'm the one who stole you away from her while she was gone, maybe we both have problems, so"

She was trembling, the heavy mental burden finally making Yuna vulnerable to speak presumptuously, her eyes were red, tears were rolling, and Yuna gave a low cry, but was strong enough to keep the tears from falling.

"Nothing so!"

The pale smile of the girl in his arms made Ace flinch, replaced by a rare feeling of heartache, and driven by this emotion, he stepped forward and pressed his soft lips to the other's.

It was the first time Ace had ever taken the initiative to kiss a girl.

Yuna, who had been kissed painfully, subconsciously yelped, and then came back to her senses, her face flushed red for a moment, her tone stuttering, but with uncontrollable joy, "What are you, what are you doing."

"Kissing, that's what a boyfriend and girlfriend should do right," Ace said so matter-of-factly, "Like you said, as a boy I can just take the initiative, right?"

"You don't understand at all."

"I don't understand, I never find it troublesome, feelings and all, but one thing I know better than anyone else, I like you, very much, no, it should be I love you, very much, more than anyone else."

Looking at the other's beautiful face in surprise, Ace's tone grew firmer, "I love you, so, do you love me?"

Yuna dumbfoundedly looked at Ace in front of her, the distance between herself and him was actually never so close, tears suddenly fell, she embraced each other, holding tightly, as if all the emotions deeply deposited in her heart were completely released, as if to dry all the tears of frustration together, feeling the intense love from the other body, Ace also slowly hugged her, more passionate than any time before.

"After the battle with Whitebeard, let's get married as long as we can survive."

At the sunrise that was filled with infinite warmth, Ace made this vow to the young girl.

"We'll be together everywhere from now on, whether it's continuing to search for ONEPIECE or traveling around the world, we'll always be together and never be apart again until the day we're both too old to move."

Yuna was startled, and the raging tears that came out blurred her vision again.

Chapter 23 - Enylu's Challenge

Today was the last day of the one-month period, and according to the agreement, it was today that Ace would fight to the death with Whitebeard in the New World's Ed Vo Sea.

A round of red sun slowly rose from the edge of the distant horizon, golden light and dancing sunshine, the sky was as gorgeous as fire, and the sound of waves came from the sky, along with the layers of sunlight.

As usual, Ace, who was dressed in white, placed his hands behind his back and gazed ahead at his companions who had been advancing and retreating with him for years, watching the faces with different expressions with every ounce of his being, fully sensing their emotions and needs.

All of them had transformed, even Cornelius and Naz were so, as young and weak as before, but their faces were all hardened look just a short week, the momentum of this band of pirates was actually as unbreakable as the troops that came out of the blood and sand.

"In that case, let's go." Ace nodded without a hint of hesitation or a sigh, no matter how nervous and uncertain he was beforehand, by the time the moment to decide his fate arrived, calmness and fearlessness had dominated his thoughts, and the only thing he held tightly was a pair of catkins in his hands.

He met Yuna's clear eyes and smiled slightly, gently lowering the cowboy hat on his head, which happened to be fastened just above Naz's cherry-colored shredded hair, "It fits, so I'll just leave this hat with you for now, kiddo."

"Huh." Naz threw up his tongue and made a face at Ace, but I could tell he still liked it.

"Huh?" There was a slight, hidden whistle in his ears, the big bear's brow lightly wrinkled, raising his right palm, a loud bang, the air cannon condensed out of the flesh ball in his palm, bringing out a halo of condensed but undissipated light whistling out, in contrast to it, was the dark purple fire bursting in all directions, the piercing coldness swept over the diffusion, a gorgeous flower of flame slowly bloomed, shrouded in a kind of purple hazy, illusory, faintly visible.

The Great Bear's attack was incomparably fast, almost with the naked eye indiscernible speed into a sweeping white comet, fiercely hit the feast of flame flowers, no scattered roaring energy, no earth-shaking loud, composed of countless phosphorescent purple flame flowers, slowly and effectively rotating, like a whirlpool, grinding powerful untamed power, but the impact of the break but weaker and weaker, gradually turned invisible.

The flames faded away, revealing the other party, revealing the other party's flawless white wrists, and the incredulous color of their faces.

"Is that you?"

The black as ink noble evening dress, exuding a coveted nobility and temptation, a silver-white hair actually seemed brighter than this full of ice and snow, and the other party's eyes that were deeper than rubies was dazzling, this beautiful figure revealed in the sunlight, Yuna recognized it at first glance.

"What are you doing here?" It was a questioning tone, but all but revealed her distaste for the other party, and what worried her more was why they were here at such a sensitive time.

"Is there any need to ask, how about coming here to help you out of course, welcome?" Slowing her gaze away from the big bear, Lilith gazed directly at Ace and said softly.

"Ah, the welcome." Ace's tone couldn't hide the joy in his voice, when he replied happily. "It doesn't seem to have gotten any thinner, hehehe, it's good that you didn't suffer anything out there."

"Wait a minute, I never felt right, why can you accept such a woman who could betray us at any moment, Captain" Ace's voice had just trailed off when someone among his companions couldn't hold back and chimed in.

"But she's still here today." Ace put away his smile and squared up, "No matter how much one tries to hide one's feelings, only sincere feelings can't be hidden I don't know how she's been living this month with only one person, everyone lives with more or less uneasy feelings. What matters is how one gets over that uneasiness and fear, and since she chose to face it with us in the end, I think we should all let go of our prejudices and try to accept her."

"Right, Lillian."

Looking at the side of the other's face, like water skin that seemed transparent under the caress of moonlight, the most attractive thing was the deep violet pupils, from which came insight and penetration into the world's affairs, as well as settled wisdom, she seemed to have never been so confident, but also never so alone.

"I told you, you are not allowed to mention that name again."

A pair of wonderful eyes always blinked unblinkingly gazed at the Ace in front of her, the indescribable irritation in her heart caused her to almost suffocate, anger, regret, and resentment suddenly flooded into her heart like a river, a mixture of flavors, and her face could not help but change slightly, as if she sensed her disposition, Lilith flipped up her long snow-white hair, and said in a paragraph.
