Pirates: Who is the real sun god?

Whoosh——

Whoosh——

In the evening, Barrett walked out slowly from the center of the island, panting heavily. Only when he reached the residence built on the outskirts did he slowly calm down.

brubru——

He was just about to get some food to recover when the Den Den Mushi suddenly rang in the wooden house he had built.

"Jin, what's the matter?"

Barrett walked into the cabin, answered the Den Den Mushi, and asked.

"Boss, that kid Ace has gone out to sea."

Jhin's voice sounded worried and nervous.

"That boy seems to be only sixteen years old! Why is he going out to sea now?" Barrett was also shocked. Although Ace did not stay in the mother's womb for twenty months like in the original book, and was born normally in 1499, he was only sixteen years old and not yet an adult, but now he went out to sea directly.

"I don't know either. I just received the message. I called you now because I wanted to go over and take a look. I asked you to go back to Helios first."

Jhin was very worried. Over the years, he had been both a teacher and a father. He often went to the East China Sea to teach Ace and help him lay the foundation, treating him better than his own children. In his eyes, no matter how strong Ace was, he was still just a child.

"Jin, since Ace has chosen to go out to sea, it proves that he has the courage to take on everything, so we'd better not interfere. A young bird must learn to fly. Blindly protecting it will only backfire."

"What we have to do is trust him. He is the captain's son and our apprentice. He can come to us with his own abilities."

Although Barrett has not been to the East China Sea in recent years, he is very familiar with Ace's situation. Although Ace is only sixteen years old now, his three-color domineering has reached the intermediate level, and his physical skills are at the proficient level. Even the major general of the headquarters may not be Ace's opponent.

It is also worth mentioning that a few years ago when Jin went to the East China Sea to baptize Ace, he accidentally obtained the superhuman Magnetic-Magnetic Fruit on the way.

Without giving it much thought, Jhin took him to the East China Sea. However, after Ace was baptized, he became so hungry that he swallowed the Magnetic Fruit as well, becoming a landlubber.

Jin had no choice but to turn to Barrett for fruit development.

When Barrett heard that it was the Magnet-Magnetic Fruit, he felt very sick. After all, the Magnet-Magnetic Fruit has great strategic significance.

But there was nothing he could do but help Ace develop it, so he specially went to find many books about magnetism to read, and finally combined them together to write a small development guide. He was even afraid that Ace, who was too stupid to understand, so he thought of names for some of the moves and the ultimate skills. Only then did he give the small guide and the books about magnetism to Jhin, asking him to remind Ace to study them seriously.

However, the ability of the fruit can be hidden for as long as possible and used as a trump card.

"Boss, I understand. I won't stop him from going out to sea. I want to go to Rogue Town and help him take the first step." Jin responded after a moment of silence.

"You go! Ling Xiao, don't worry."

Barrett laughed.

"Boss, I'm hanging up now."

Toot——

After saying that, Jin hung up the phone.

"Little ghost, I don't know if you can break your fate this time."

Barrett looked up at the starry sky with deep eyes and muttered to himself.

-

Rogue Town.

A medium-sized ship was slowly approaching the port. A young man, brimming with youthfulness, jumped off the bow and landed steadily on the dock.

"Old man, is this where you are buried? It's called the town of the beginning and the end."

The young man was about two meters tall, had black hair, and wore a loose T-shirt and jeans. He had freckles on his cheeks and a tattoo of "ASCE" on his left arm. This was Ace who arrived in Rogue Town after going out to sea.

At this time, Ace's expression was complicated, and there were layers of mist in his bright eyes.

"Ace, you idiot, why did you jump off without waiting for the boat to dock?"

"Deus, is this the first day you met him?"

"That's right, isn't our bastard captain always like this?"

"Wow, Ace is very gentle."

Shortly after the boat docked, three men and one woman got off the boat. They all looked very young.

"Aha, I'm so sorry. I was a little excited to be here." Ace scratched his head and looked at the four people with some embarrassment.

"Idiot, no matter how excited you are, you should wait until the ship docks. Don't you know what you have done?" The girl who spoke was named Taylor, whom Ace met on the deserted island.

Taylor has a graceful figure, beautiful looks, and is proficient in navigation technology. She is Ace's navigator.

"Hey, Taylor, I didn't mean it." Ace smiled, "But don't you think that our life is cool?"

"Ace is right. After so many battles, my strength has improved a lot." Another young man spoke.

The young man who was speaking was named Mascude Deus. He was a doctor on Ace's ship and also a swordsman. Like Taylor, he met on the same deserted island.

Mascude Deus has blue hair, is taller than Ace, carries a long sword on his waist, and wears a pair of blue glasses.

"Duce's exciting life can indeed make people excited, but too much excitement is not good. This is Rogue Town, known as the town of beginning and end. It is heavily guarded by the navy. It is the last checkpoint for us to enter the Grand Line, so it is better to be low-key here." The young man who was speaking now had his hair tied in a swirling bun, was of medium build, wore glasses, and looked very thin.

This person is Ace's think tank and first mate, Baki's royal deputy in the original work, Mr. 3 - Gardino.

Just like in the original story, Gardino ate Barrett's lost Wax-Wax Fruit and once worked for Sand Crocodile.

The only difference from the original is that when Sand Crocodile joined Rocks, Gardino sensed something was wrong, so he sneaked to the East China Sea and hid near the Windmill Village.

Once he went out to rob other gangs, and by chance he met Jhin. After Jhin beat Gardino up, he talked to him and found that Gardino was very smart.

So, he paved the way for the land, and while instructing Ace, he also taught Gardino physical skills, asked him to read, flattered Barrett to help Gardino develop the fruit, and even found Clo and asked Clo to instruct Gardino whenever he had time.

Over the years, Gardino not only became proficient in using the Six Styles and Two-Color Haki, but with the help of Clo and a large number of books, his wisdom and vision were also greatly developed, making him a veritable think tank.

Under Jhin's arrangement, Gardino naturally became Ace's first crew member and deputy captain.

"Wow, I think everyone is right."

The last person to speak was a strong man named Miguel. Miguel had a childish look and seemed a little honest.

However, he was tall, about five meters tall, with bulging muscles on his naked upper body, and one could tell at a glance that he was not someone to be trifled with.

Hahaha--

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Only Taylor shouted angrily, "You idiots, don't you know that the White Hunter is stationed in Rogue Town? He is a navy captain who has captured many pirates personally!"

"Tyler is okay, I can deal with Smoker, don't worry too much." Ace rubbed Taylor's head and spoke gently.

He knew about Smoker. They had seen Smoker once not long after they went out to sea. At that time, except for Gardino and him, everyone else was scared.

"Idiot, stop rubbing my head." Taylor pulled Ace's hand away and glared at him fiercely with his beautiful big eyes.

Ace looked embarrassed.

"Tyler, it's okay. We just need to hide ourselves and not cause any trouble. Smoker won't know we've arrived in Rogue Town. We just need to be back before sunset." Gardino smiled and took out four sets of cloaks from somewhere and gave one to Taylor, Deus and Miguel respectively.

"Mr. Gal is reliable and thoughtful."

"Thank you, Mr. Gal."

The three of them looked delighted and thanked him one after another.

"No need. We are all partners. There is no need to be so polite. Taylor, if you have nothing to do, can you come with me and buy some books?" Gardino put on his cloak and looked at Taylor with a smile.

"Of course, I just want to buy some books about sailing." Taylor was overjoyed and took the initiative to step forward and hold Gardino's arm.

The two of them didn't care about the dazed expressions of the three people at all and left arm in arm.

"Captain, I'll leave the task of watching over the ship to you. Deuce and I will go check out the weapons store and the pharmacy."

Mascude Deus glanced at Ace, and strode away with Miguel.

Ace was confused as he suddenly realized that not only was he without clothes, but he was also left alone to watch over the boat.

"These bastards—"

Ace gritted his teeth, looked back at the ship, then looked at Rogue Town. After hesitating for a moment, he temporarily gave up the task of watching the ship and strode towards the center of Rogue Town. His purpose of coming to Rogue Town was to see the place where Roger was executed in the past.

Just as Ace and the others left, two figures came to Ace's ship one after another.

Both of them were wearing the same suit as Long, which covered them tightly.
