Pirate's Sword Tower Tavern

night.

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

Such a night seems very suitable for doing a.

Tonight, Ace felt like he couldn't sleep at all.

The look in Tikki's eyes during the day made Ace very uneasy, and even now he felt panicked.

Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, Ace couldn't help but unleash his domineering aura.

"Hey, why aren't Tiki sleeping yet?"

In his perception, Teach was actually moving on the deck, and the direction he was heading was towards That's room.

He goes to Sage

Ace was filled with doubts.

Something was wrong when I saw Tikki’s eyes during the day. Could it be that he wanted that Devil Fruit?

But if he wanted it, he could just say no. Why did he have to go to Tiqi so late at night?

Thinking of this, Ace also jumped up from the bed.

Tonight's patrol does not include their second division or fourth division. After all, the two divisions only went on missions during the day, and they will be given time to rest tonight.

He just put on a pair of pants. Ace was used to going shirtless, just to show the Whitebeard Pirates logo on his back. With bare feet, Ace quietly walked out of the room.

"I hope I'm overthinking it."

Gritting his teeth, Ace sensed that Teach had arrived at Sage's door, and followed him secretly.

As a squad leader, everyone has his or her own separate room, and Sachi is no exception.

Just when he was about to go to sleep, there was a knock on the door.

"Tiqi, it's so late and you come to me for a drink."

When he opened the door and saw Tiqi holding two bottles of wine at the door, Sachi was a little surprised for a moment.

Although they have known each other for a long time and are good friends, Tiqi has never come to him for a drink in the middle of the night. At this time, he clearly knows that he needs to rest.

"Yeah, don't you invite me in?"

Tikki shook the bottle in his hand and smiled, showing his teeth that rearranged every time he opened his mouth.

"Ah, come in."

Thatch turned sideways, let Teach walk in, and then slowly closed the door.

Neither of them noticed that above their heads, Ace peeked his head out secretly.

However, the wood material of the Moby-Dick was still very good, but if you lay on it, you couldn't hear what they were saying at all, so Ace crept down and carefully lay down outside the door.

"Tiqi, why are you looking for me so late?"

Saatchi had no defense against Teach, so he opened his cabinet with his back to him and took out two wine bowls from inside.

"I do have a lot of things on my mind."

Tikki went straight to the topic, but he still had a smile on his face, and it didn't look like he was worried at all.

"If that's the case, then I'll have a good drink."

Teach poured wine for the two of them, and Sachi picked it up and drank it all in one gulp, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hahaha, these are the only two bottles that Ace and I grabbed from a ship when we went out a few times ago."

Teach continued to load up.

"Next time you have good wine, let me know in advance, and I'll prepare some appetizers."

Sage suddenly complained, but with a smile on his face.

"Next time, definitely next time."

If there is a next time.

A fierce light flashed in Tiqi's eyes, but Sachi didn't notice it as he raised his head to drink.

Outside the door, Ace, who was showing off his domineering appearance, found nothing unusual. The two of them seemed to be simply drinking.

"Saatchi, how many years have you been on the ship?"

While drinking, Tiqi suddenly felt emotional.

"It's been almost 30 years. I joined the ship when my father first started to form his own pirate group."

Hearing what Tiqi said, Sachi suddenly recalled it. After all, it was a very long life.

"I have been on the ship for 22 years. I remember that not long after we got on the ship, we had a fight with the Roger Pirates."

Tikki also seemed to be lost in memories.

"Speaking of which, Shanks, the trainee sailor in the Roger Pirates, fought with you, and now he has become the Yonko, as famous as his father."

Speaking of this, Sachi couldn't help but sigh.

"Yeah, who would have thought that a kid at that time would actually grow to such a point."

"You were also a brat back then."

"That's what the thief said hahaha."

The two chatted happily. Ace, who was lying on the door outside, heard a little bit of the chat inside and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that it was just a normal chat. It seemed that Luo Yi was overthinking.

"Speaking of which, there is a reason why I boarded dad's boat."

The second bottle of wine was opened, and Tiqi refilled the drinks for the two of them before getting to the point.

"Oh, why? I remember the reason you boarded the ship was because you had nowhere to go."

Sage asked curiously.

Over the years, the number of people on the ship has slowly increased, but Tiqi, who came on the ship as a child more than twenty years ago, knows it very well.

"It's true that I have nowhere to go, but there is another reason. In fact, I"

With that said, Sachi picked up the bowl and took a big sip.

"Looking for a devil fruit."

"The Devil Fruit can't be the one I found during the day."

Sage laughed.

"That's right."

""

Seeing Tiqi's serious expression, Sachi paused with the bowl raised to his mouth, and suddenly laughed again.

"I just said, Tikki, who never sleeps, actually came to chat with me in the middle of the night. There must be something wrong. It turns out he wants the Devil Fruit. Wait a minute. I remember I put it away. "

With that said, Sachi stood up, rummaged around the room, and quickly took out a box.

When the box was opened and the Devil Fruit appeared in front of the two of them, Sachi also had a knife in his chest.

"Tikki you"

Sage never dreamed that Teach would stab himself.

"Sorry, I still have another ambition, that is"

With a "pop" sound, the knife was pulled out, and Sachi's life force was quickly drained.

"One Piece"

Seeing Sachi fall, Teach's breathing quickened, adrenaline kept secreting, his hands trembled a little, and the knife in his right hand fell to the ground.

"I finally got it"

Stretching out his hands, Teach seemed to see himself sitting on the throne of the Pirate King.

"Yang Yan"

A roar came from outside the door, and Tiqi only saw a familiar fist smashing the door, and a thick pillar of fire rushed directly to his chest. The incident happened suddenly, and Tiqi did not react at all.

The extremely high temperature and huge impact force directly pushed Tiqi out, smashed the wall, and landed on the deck.

But the pillar of fire did not stop, it crossed the deck directly and rushed into the sky.

There was a lot of movement and it caught everyone's attention.

Even those who were sleeping were awakened, and those on duty were the first to gather over.

"Marco, treat Thatch quickly."

Ace directly grabbed Marco who landed next to him and pointed at Thatch on the ground.

Looking down, Sa Qi, who had been stabbed directly in the chest with a knife, had been breathing out more and taking in less air.
