Chapter 137 Portcas D Ace
Chapter 137 Portcas D. Ace
In a small seaside town in Alabasta, a shirtless pirate wearing a cowboy hat had just landed ashore. He was carrying his small bag and looking around at the taverns. Soon, he walked into one of the taverns that looked the most beautiful. An impressive family.
The pirate with the white beard logo tattooed on his back was eating heavily and drinking happily, but suddenly it became dark in front of him, and a figure walked in front of him, blocking the light.
Ace raised his head, and his eyes were a little strange when he saw the person coming.
"oh?"
"You are the bounty hunter who has become famous recently. What is your name?"
"Blood Moon Swordsman?"
Ace is obviously not as lacking as Luffy. He has rich experience of going to sea alone. Even someone like Tong Gu who has become famous in the waters of Shengting Island has noticed him.
Tong Gu looked at this young man with some freckles on his face, and sat down with a smile. He did not want to hide his identity. With his extremely keen sense, he noticed that someone in the tavern was already quietly making contact.
Obviously, the intelligence system of Baroque Working Company is quite complete, and Tong Gu is satisfied, after all, these are his future team members.
"Portcas D. Ace."
Ace was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that someone could recognize his identity in such a small place, but before he could speak, Tong Gu's second sentence made his face change drastically.
"Or, I should call you... Gol D. Ace..."
Ace's muscles tightened instantly, and flames ignited at his fingertips. He looked at the man sitting across the table and found that there was no threat or other strange look in his eyes.
Ace slowly exhaled, the flame at his fingertips extinguished, he put down the wine glass and said calmly
"who are you?"
Tong Gu's muscles under his black windbreaker also slowly relaxed. To be honest, he did take some risks when he came into contact with Ace before he had mastered his domineering power. There was no way to resist the opponent's ability at this time.
But fortunately, Ace is not a murderous character, and Tong Gu also put the card in his hand under the table back into his backpack.
"I'm just a bounty hunter who knows some information. Can you call me Mr. Silver Moon for now?"
"temporary?"
Tong Gu nodded, looked at the working agency intelligence officer hidden in the tavern and said
"Soon, my code name will probably become Mr. 0."
Although Ace didn't understand what the change in code name actually meant, he caught the ambition hidden in the other party's words.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and soon blackened finger marks appeared on the surface of the wooden table.
"Then what is Mr. Silver Moon's purpose for finding me now?"
Tong Gu didn't care about the threat revealed by Ace's fingertip movements. He looked out the window sideways. The vibration of the earth and the whispers in the wind made him feel the appearance of the Straw Hats, leaving him and Ai Si didn't have much time to talk.
"A deal, Ace-kun."
"Trade?" Ace asked himself as he didn't have anything to trade with, so he just looked at Tong Gu in confusion.
Tong Gu smiled and said
"We bounty hunters don't actually have to use money to trade. Mr. Ace, I would like to exchange a piece of news for hiring you for three days. How about it?"
"A message about Blackbeard."
The faint smile on Ace's face slowly dissipated. It seemed that the other party was not lying. This Blood Moon Swordsman did have a very secret information channel. Not only did he recognize him, but he even knew that he was here for Blackbeard?
Ace stood up slowly, and flames began to swirl around his body. It was obvious that he was not prepared to make a good deal with Tong Gu and wanted to force the news.
Tong Gu also stood up slowly, and his spiritual pressure began to dissipate.
The extraordinary momentum of the two men instantly caused everyone else in the tavern to stand up and flee out with panic on their faces.
Ace took a step forward, but Tong Gu suddenly smiled and pointed out the window.
Ace turned to look and saw a boy wearing a straw hat running wildly. Behind him, a navy that turned into smoke was chasing after him.
"Luffy!"
Ai Dun didn't care about the problem with Tong Gu, and his body turned into flames and rushed out instantly.
boom!
The flames quickly knocked Smokey Smoke away. The two elements of flame and smoke reacted wonderfully, and actually became entangled in reality.
"Who are you……"
Smoker was shocked. His unfailing elementalization in Rogge Town and the first half of the Grand Route was actually disturbed?
Luffy finally got a breather, and when he looked at the newly appeared man, he was stunned for a moment and then said in surprise
"Ace!"
The Marines and other members of the Straw Hats arrived later and saw a man covered in flames confronting the terrifying Smoker. Everyone in the Straw Hats came to Luffy's side.
"Are the Whitebeard Pirates also going to get involved?"
Smoker recognized Ace's identity, and he was also very afraid of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Ace, on the other hand, tipped his hat indifferently and said calmly.
"This has nothing to do with dad, it's my brother who I have to protect."
"younger brother?"
The surrounding members of the Straw Hats and the navy members such as Dusky were all shocked.
The captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates is actually the brother of Straw Hat Luffy. This news can be considered big news.
Weiwei was also surprised, but soon she noticed the man in black walking slowly from the tavern. He still had the same calm attitude, without the evil and domineering look on the reward order.
Noticing Weiwei looking at him, Tong Gu also waved his hand and said hello with a smile.
"Hey, my future partner, we meet again."
Princess Weiwei couldn't help but feel a little amused. Sword Hao Sang, who had become a super bounty criminal in the name of "Blood Moon Sword Hao", was still joking with her.
But how did she know that Tong Gu never joked easily.
Tong Gu appeared next to Weiwei, putting everyone in the Straw Hats on alert. Weiwei quickly waved her hands and said
"It's okay, everyone, Jianhaosang is my... partner."
Sauron and Sanji did not relax their vigilance. They could feel a huge threat from Tong Gu, and the feeling was just like encountering a savage beast when they were young.
Luffy glanced at Tong Gu and smiled.
"You are so strong, it feels like you."
Tong Gu took a look at Luffy. Who would have thought that such a big boy would actually have the possibility of defeating King Shichibukai. He shook his head and said with a bitter smile.
"You are very strong too, Luffy-kun."
Luffy did not retort and laughed. He did not feel any hostility from the swordsman. The other party and Weiwei did not seem to be enemies.
Dasqi quickly opened the reward order he carried with him, and after just one glance, his face changed drastically and he shouted to Smog
"Colonel Smoker, he is the Blood Moon Swordsman!"
"Mr. Silver Moon, who has a bounty of 198 million!"
Smoker's expression changed, and Tong Gu happened to look at him. Smoker felt that the situation was not good. Just the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Regiment was very difficult to deal with, and there was another powerful enemy with a bounty of over 100 million. , he immediately stood in front of the other soldiers and told them to move back.
But neither Ace nor Tong Gu had the intention to attack Smoker and his party. Tong Gu also took the initiative to say
"Colonel Smoker, can you answer a question for me?"
Smoker snorted coldly and was not prepared to communicate too much with the other party, but Tong Gu still looked as usual and asked.
"If you know, this country will soon face a terrible war sweeping the country, but the two sides of the war are the royal families of the countries that join the world government, and the king Shichibukai recognized by the world government. You and the navy you lead , how will you choose?”
Weiwei's expression changed, and she looked at the powerful navy, but Smoker did not answer, but just turned and left. Weiwei was a little disappointed.
But Tong Gu smiled. He knew Smoker's final choice.
"You will fight for justice and the people, Colonel Smoker!"
Dasqi paused and turned around in disbelief. The terrifying swordsman who caused the Blood Moon incident actually made her feel inexplicably righteous at this moment.
