() Looking at Ace imprisoned in the cell, I felt inexplicably sad. Although the last time I saw him was when he was defeated by Blackbeard, Ace at that time was not as depressed as he is now.
.With Sean's help, I stood up from the ground, and then walked towards Ace, looking at his somewhat thin face. There was a faint smile on his face. It was not the original grin, just a faint smile.
smile.
The last time I saw Ace was at Wal-Mart. At that time, there was still Blackbeard on the island. So although I had a lot of doubts in my heart, I still didn't ask Ace. But now, when there are no other people around,
, I spoke directly and asked Ace directly...
"Why destroy the secret room in the palace?"
My colleagues looked at me strangely and didn’t understand why I behaved like this. To them, all this was like an unpredictable script. Because they cared too much about the chief adviser, no one did
I found out that Ace was imprisoned aside, and what I didn't expect was that after we had just met, I felt like Ace had asked a very strange question. Only Cliff seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Ace with a solemn expression.
"Because there are things in there that shouldn't exist."
As soon as Ace opened his mouth, everyone felt even more depressed. What on earth were these two people talking about when they were singing and singing? Cliff was a wise man, so between asking and answering, he already understood something. Only
I heard Cliff speaking softly and gave the answer that helped his friends to understand.
"Did it happen in the palace of the King of Alabasta?" When they saw me nodding, everyone realized that the culprit who destroyed the only universally translated historical text in the world was actually the one imprisoned in the cell.
The young boy Cliff was even more direct. He slapped himself on the forehead, and then said to me: "Cohen, you have to be lucky that you sent Enel out before you set off, otherwise with that guy's bad temper, you will have to wait for a long time."
We must make a complete fuss here."
This is true. Thinking back on Rocket Man, when Enel knew that the translated historical text had been destroyed, everyone could see the anger he showed when facing Weiwei. Although I didn't see it, but
Just hearing what Moses described to me afterwards made me feel a little surprised. Is it necessary for a historical text to be like this?
But now is not the time to look back on the past. I took a step forward, bringing myself closer to Ace. I looked sideways, looking at the blue fish man sitting next to Ace, and spoke to Ace.
Si asked: "Is this guy reliable?"
"He is Kaixia Jinbei, one of the Shichibukai. He was arrested because he refused to accept the navy's recruitment. He is a trustworthy person."
"Reject the call from the World Government?" I looked at Jinbei and asked with interest, "Why?"
"I will never stand against my father!"
What Jinbe yelled out in his thick voice turned out to be the declaration of a man. Even though he was a fish-man, his temperament was enough for me to appreciate. Turning my head, I looked at Ace. In an instant, the people around him
The air seems to be a bit colder.
"Tell me, why did you destroy the secret room?"
"Because there are things in the secret room that shouldn't exist."
The answer he gave me was still the same, simple and clear, but it made me a little dissatisfied. As a last resort, I could only continue to clarify the words a little more in order to get the answer I wanted.
"You don't have to destroy the secret room at all. Wouldn't it be better if you just destroy the thing?"
"But it doesn't work..." Ace looked at me, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Originally, I thought that it would be just fine if the thing could be dropped. But after I destroyed the thing, I accidentally discovered that there was something wrong with it.
There are actually scary things in that secret room."
"What is it?"
"A formation, a formation constructed from the bookshelf in the secret room."
There was a natural joking smile on Ace's face. This smile has always given me an incomprehensible feeling ever since I saw him in Alabasta. And the so-called formation in his mouth that made him fearful,
It made me feel even more uneasy. At this time, Steve walked up to me
Behind me, he whispered behind my ear: "Only the great staff officer in the world knows how to use various formations." The answer to everything is clear. If there is a formation in the secret room, it must be Judy's masterpiece.
!Looking at Ace who was still smiling mischievously in front of me, I felt extremely depressed.
"Why, it's just a formation, isn't it?" I looked at Ace and asked thoughtfully. After a long silence, I suddenly opened my eyes wide and looked at Ace, because I thought about it, thought about it
An extremely impossible hypothesis, "Is that formation related to me?"
"As expected of Cohen, he is really smart..." Ace's playful smile was still there, and his eyes had a little more sparkle, "You are right, that formation does have something to do with you, that formation
, can restore your memory..."
"What are you talking about!" Steve pointed at Ace angrily, drew out his giant sword, and was about to slash at the cage. But his action was caught by my eyes, and he was naturally stopped by me.
Looking at the men around him who had already held weapons in their hands, their eyes were filled with rage.
Friends, I pressed my hand down in the air to signal my friends to calm down. After making sure that my friends had temporarily suppressed their anger, I turned around, looked at Ace, and asked: "
Why, in your opinion, is it really so terrible for me to regain my memory?"
"Hahahaha!!! It's not me, it's not me!" Ace burst out laughing. After he stopped laughing, he continued to say to me with a smile on his face, "I'm sorry, Costa."
Brother...grandpa said that I can't let you recover your memory...I can't help it..."
"Why on earth is this?!" I hit the cage hard with my hand, and a muffled sound echoed through the entire floor. I tried hard to calm down the anger in my heart, but in the end I failed. Looking at the face in front of me,
Ace was still smiling. I yelled at him for the first time, "Why! In your opinion, is it such a terrible thing for me to regain my memory?! Why?!"
"It's scary! It's really scary!" Ace suddenly stood up from the ground and walked to me with great effort. He stared into my eyes with his own eyes, and then said every word.
, "We are afraid that you will find three ancient weapons! We are afraid that you will take revenge on this world! We are afraid that the war that once happened in this world, the war that almost destroyed the world, will break out again! Do you understand?!"
The last sentence "Do you understand?!" was shouted hysterically at me...
I stood there blankly, with a bleeding feeling in my heart. It turned out that the people I grew up with still had deep prejudices against me... Looking in front of me, there was still anger on my face.
Si, I said disappointedly: "Am I just a violent and ruthless piece of trash in your heart that only destroys everything?"
"No! Of course not!" Ace roared, and the boy who was still furious before was already bursting into tears in an instant, "I don't want to believe what grandpa said, and I don't want to stand on the opposite side of you...
I still remember when I was a kid, you took the three of us brothers to hunt, and you and Sister Maginot baked food for us, and you lovingly cooked food for us.
The three brothers gave me some advice... I have told myself countless times that I must believe in you, believe in you, believe in you! But... But I don’t dare to bet! I really don’t dare to bet! I can’t imagine that I was almost destroyed.
If the world war breaks out again, will we still have the land to stand on? I don’t dare to bet, I really don’t dare to bet!!!”
After Ace's words ended, the cell fell into silence. I couldn't imagine what Ace was carrying, so that everything on Ace's body showed so much pain. He had lowered his head.
He started sobbing silently, with his shoulders shrugging, but there was no sound. Tears fell on the ground, but his cries could not be heard. I reached across the cell and patted his shoulders, hoping to help him.
Relieve pain.
After Ace was able to control his emotions, and after he calmed down a little, I continued to ask, "Can you tell me what happened to the war you mentioned that almost destroyed the world?"
"Yes, of course, you are my big brother Costa." Although there were still tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, Ace still smiled innocently, which made me feel as if everything was back to the beginning, as if everything was in front of me.
Ace was the kid who could only smile sillyly. "Everything is because of the struggle for power and the competition of forces. The beginning of everything comes from the tiger, shark, eagle and gopher fighting against the king of animals, the lion.
challenge.”

This is a very old story. I once translated this story for Lasha in the strange quicksand of Alabasta...
