Chapter 44: Whitebeards disease (1/2)
Two months later.
Yang Tai walked out of the Moby Dick and saw Ace who was beaten again with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and said with a smile, "Yo, Ace, I was beaten by Captain Whitebeard again today. !"
Ace hummed, and didn't know what to say, Yang Tai didn't care so much, he opened his mouth and swallowed him, and then an Ace who seemed to be intact reappeared.
However, this time, Ace, cured by Yangtai, was not like before. He ran to exercise with great enthusiasm and was ready to challenge Whitebeard again. Instead, there was a bit of confusion in his eyes, obviously his mind was shaken.
During this period of time, Whitebeard has done his best to him. Not only that, but other people on the Mobydis also regarded him as their brother. For someone like Ace who was emotionally rich and lacked fatherly love since childhood, it would be strange if he didn't feel lost. .
After all, Ace is not like Luffy, who thinks about becoming the Pirate King. His goal is to surpass his father - in fact, because of the psychological shadow of childhood, he wants to fight for his breath. In terms of motivation and persistence, he is naturally far less persevering than Luffy.
He does not have a straw hat of the Pirate King, nor does the Four Emperors put an arm on his future. For him, going to sea is just for freedom.
Therefore, after feeling the fatherly love of Whitebeard and the atmosphere on the Moby Dick, Ace actually felt a little shaken in his heart. If it wasn't for the good face of the young man, it is estimated that he would have joined Whitebeard long ago. Beard Pirates.
Yangtai ignored Ace who was in a period of confusion. In his opinion, the fate between Ace and Whitebeard was just like Shanks and Luffy. As long as their personalities did not change, then Ace would join the team. It's just a matter of time before the Whitebeard Pirates.
On the contrary, he was a little depressed. He had been on the Moby Dick for two months, and the rest of the Spade Pirates had already been dispersed to other squads. How come no one asked him if he would like to join the Whitebeard Pirates?
Even that guy from Yamato, Whitebeard, wants to take him as his daughter. It's just that the Yamato guy wanted to advance and retreat with Ace, so he didn't agree. Why no one cares about it?
……
In the cabin of the Mobydis, Whitebeard was preparing to drink while looking at his burnt right hand, but a smile appeared on his face.
"Dad, is this... Ace did it?" Marco asked with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Gu la la la la, how's it going, this kid's potential is not bad, right?" Whitebeard didn't care about the injury on his hand, but said with a smile.
Marko had a wry smile on his face. He knew Whitebeard's character and knew that he couldn't persuade him.
And he does have a good impression of Ace--don't look at Marko shouting at each other, he is also an old pirate in his forties or fifty. He could tell at a glance what kind of character a young man like Ace was.
Although Ace still looks like he wants to assassinate Whitebeard, Marco has long seen his faltering, and he is also very clear that with Ace's character, once he joins the Whitebeard Pirates, There will never be any second thoughts in the future.
But right now, Marko's biggest concern isn't about Ace.
"Dad, during this period of time, not only the Spades Pirates, but also many members of our Whitebeard Pirates have been treated by Yangtai. Dad, do you want to..."
"Humph!" Whitebeard put the wine bowl on the table angrily, "I don't want to ask others to join the Whitebeard Pirates because of this kind of thing."
