MTLNOVEL Chapter 109: CH 109
"I...I made a promise to a friend." Luffy said. "And if I told you, I'd be breaking that promise." Ace just stared at Luffy before sighing. If there was one thing he knew about Luffy, it was that Luffy would never spill a friend's secret.
"Alright." he said before smiling as he pulled a canteen of water out and drank some of it. "Still, it's good to see you Luffy." "You too!" Luffy said with a smile. If only Ace knew how true that was to Luffy. "I heard my crew say you were a Whitebeard pirate!"
"Yep." Ace said as he turned around to show him the mark on his back. "This tattoo here is our mark, and my pride!" Ace said before facing Luffy and asking him, "Hey Luffy, won't you and your crew join the Whitebeard Pirates?"
"Nope." Luffy said without a second thought. Ace only smiled at him.
"Didn't think so." Ace said with a laugh. "Shame really. Whitebeard's the greatest pirate I know. That's why I'm gonna help him become King of the Pirates Luffy."
"Okay." Luffy said with a grin. "I'll just fight him then since I'm the one who's gonna be King of the Pirates." he said before he remembered that he wouldn't get the chance since Whitebeard was killed in the war. Both then grabbed their things as they began walking before Luffy took a huge swallow of water from his barrel.
-On the Marine Ship-
"Where'd all those marines go?" Mr. 11 asked himself. "Ah who cares. Just gotta get free before they come back."
"Mr. 11!" someone said. Mr. 11 looked up to see a few people looking down at him.
"Hello. If you know my codename, you must be with Baroque Works. Hurry and untie me Millions!" Mr. 11 said.
"You're half right!" one of them said.
"We are Baroque Works, but we're Billions!" said the fat one. "We're next in line to become number agents should anything happen to one of you guys."
"You must be one pathetic agent to have been captured by the marines." said the third guy.
"Can we talk later? Like when I'm out of here?" Mr. 11 asked. One of the men grinned as he pointed a gun at him.
"Oh, you're out alright. Out of Baroque Works AND out of the land of the living!" he said. Mr. 11 stared up in horror as he told him that a Billions can fill an available as a huge man came out of nowhere.
"And yours is about to become available." he said.
"No! Wait! Stop!" Mr. 11 begged before a gunshot was heard. All for of them jumped off the boat as another Billions came running towards them.
"Big news!" he panted. "Fire Fist Ace is in town!"
"Fire Fist Ace! The Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates?!" they asked before the big man grinned.
"If we kill Fire Fist Ace, a seat as a number agent is in the bag!" he said.
-With Luffy and Ace-
"Okay Luffy. Let's go find your friend before the marines do." Ace said as they kept walking. "Any ideas where they are?"
"With the ship." Luffy said. "Okay. Which way is that?" Ace asked. Luffy just closed his eyes for a moment before pointing out West.
"That way." he said.
"That way?" Ace said as he looked on. "Out West huh? If you say so." he said before grinning. "Looks like you've matured a bit since I last saw you Luffy."
"You have no idea." Luffy mumbled.
"What?" Ace asked.
"Nothing." Luffy said with a laugh. Ace just chuckled as well before they kept on walking and talking. "So, you ate a Devil Fruit too?"
"Yep. The Flame Flame Fruit." Ace said as he held up his hand as flames danced on his fingers. "So Luffy, tell me about your crew. What are they like?" Ace asked.
"Where do I start?" Luffy said as he stared off in thought. "I've got a big group on my ship!"
"I saw that earlier." Ace said. "How about we wait until we meet them at your ship?"
"Alright." Luffy said with a grin. "I can't wait to introduce you to them all."
"I can't wait to meet them." Ace said. "I thought your pirate crew would be a bit smaller. Guess I was wrong." he said with a laugh.
"And I plan to get more." Luffy said. "Though I'm still looking for a musician." he said as he thought about Brooke.
"Hey, the papers say you attacked the Royal Family of Goa Kingdom." Ace suddenly said. "Is that true?"
"Nah." Luffy said with a grin. "I heard there was a big banquet there, so I crashed the party, stole the food, and ran." he said. He didn't mention how they bad mouthed Sabo, knowing that Ace would go back there and burn the whole place to the ground for insulting their brother like he was nothing.
"HA! That definitely sounds more your style Luffy!" Ace said before laughing.
"Stop right there Fire Fist!" someone said as a large number of Billions started appearing and surrounded the both of them.
"You're surrounded Ace." said the leader of the group. "Your head is mine, along with a promotion! Get ready to die!" he said before some of the others noticed Luffy was there. "A man with a 48,000,000 berry bounty! This is my lucky day!" said the leader as Luffy and Ace walked right past him.
"Let's go find your friends." Ace said. "Right." Luffy said as they kept walking. "HEY YOU!"
"GET BACK HERE!"
"KILL THEM!" shouted the leader. Luffy and Ace just smiled before they both went to town on the Billions.
-Back at the ShipThe rest of Luffy's crew sailed away to avoid getting caught by the marines.
"Is it really okay to sail off without Luffy?" Chopper asked.
"The marines will look around the harbor first for our ship!" Nami said. "We have to hide the ship first!"
"I know of a secluded cove up ahead." Vivi said. "We can anchor the ship there."
"So we lay low, wait for the heat to wear off, then find Luffy." Sanji said. Everyone agreed before they began to argue about Luffy's stupidity.
