One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

"Observation Haki, activate!"

The red light flashed in his eyes, and his body turned into flames and danced. He narrowly avoided Natsu's stab. Touching the blood flowing from his chest, Ace's face looked a little ugly.

"What is that?"

If Ace hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would have been stabbed through.

The blood wrapped the long sword, and Natsu walked out of the flames. He was too lazy to explain. He held the long sword in his hand, crushed the ground with his footsteps, and shot out.

The flame water pipe condensed, and Ace also shot out.

"Keng!"

"Cross Spear"

Blocking the long sword, the flames around Ace condensed into a cross spear and shot towards Natsu.

Ignoring the oncoming attack, Natsu's shoulders sank, and a force far greater than before came. The long sword covered with red blood broke the flame water pipe, and in Ace's shocked eyes, it was slashed fiercely.

The body quickly turned into flames, but it was too late.

"Swish!"

The long sword slashed Ace's chest fiercely, cutting his chest, and a thin sword wound from top to bottom appeared, and blood flowed out.

Just when Natsu cut Ace, the cross spear condensed with white flames also pierced his chest.

Only the tip of the spear was inserted, and then the gun body was clamped by Natsu's tight muscles, and it could not penetrate any further.

Gripping the hot gun shaft with his left hand, the man pulled out the tip of the gun expressionlessly in front of Ace's eyes.

Letting the wound on his chest bleed, the man rushed again.

Ignoring the stinging pain of the wound on his chest, Ace was not to be outdone.

…

On the rooftop nearby, Sabo watched the two people fighting like wild beasts below.

On the wide street, Ace kept dodging and looking for opportunities to counterattack with his observation Haki.

As for the profligate man, he withstood Ace's attack and left wounds on Ace again and again in a desperate fighting style.

The sun withdrew its afterglow and disappeared in the sky.

During this period, the Kingdom Navy that came from behind eliminated all the pirates on the island and watched the battle between Ace and Natsu from a distance.

"Mirror Fire"

The majestic flames gathered, and the towering wall of fire reappeared, surging towards Natsu.

Stopping, it seems that the power of this attack is strong enough, and Natsu did not choose to resist it.

"One Sword Style • Blood Blade Dance"

Holding the hilt with both hands, the blade is wrapped with more obvious blood. Holding the blade high, the muscles of both arms swelled, and the veins bulged. Natsu took a deep breath, and swung his thick arms at high speed. A huge blood-colored sword energy flew out, as if to cut through the natural chasm in front of him.

The blood-colored sword energy split the wall of fire, forming ripples, but soon the wall of fire returned to its original state.

The sword energy continued to be stimulated, and the dense sword energy was cut out, finally breaking Ace's moves.

The two panting people stopped attacking at the same time, and Ace, who had a lot of sword wounds on his chest, looked at the playboy.

"We've been fighting for so long, but I still don't know your name?"

"Ackerman Natsu."

The blood of the battle was boiling, and the originally taciturn man was no longer silent.

Seeing the other party speak, Ace asked curiously again: Since you have awakened the observation Haki, why do you use this life-for-life fighting method. "

In the battle from noon to night, Ace has already noticed that Natsu has actually awakened the observation Haki and armament Haki.

As for why Natsu's armament Haki is red, Ace is not sure, maybe he can ask his sister next time he comes back.

After his chest heaved violently, Natsu raised the long sword in his hand again, and said expressionlessly: "There is no special reason, only such a battle can make me feel alive."

"The world is not what you think it is, it is wonderful!"

Ace wanted to say something, waving the sword, but Natsu interrupted him directly and said: "Don't say these useless things anymore, let's make a break! I'm tired of this battle. "

The fighting spirit rose, and more red blood emerged, rising and interweaving, forming a huge blood sea phantom behind him.

"One Sword Flow • Blood Sea"

He leaped and flew into the sky. At the same time, the calm blood sea behind him suddenly began to rage, raising huge waves like a tsunami to follow Natsu.

Feeling the oppression brought by the blood-colored huge waves, Ace also used his own trick.

"Emperor"

The flames all over his body rose up, and wisps of white flames merged. After a few breaths, a huge burning pure white sun appeared above Ace's head.

The flames burned the town. Even though they were far away, Sabo, Luffy and others in the distance could feel the terrifying high temperature.

"Fall!"

With a roar, the white sun fell from the sky and hit the blood-colored huge waves directly.

The two confronted each other and were deadlocked for a while.

In the distance of the town, watching the changes on the battlefield, Sabo and Luffy believed that Ace would definitely win.

"Among the residents of the resettled town, a girl looked at Natsu worriedly. "

In the sky, Natsu held the long sword horizontally, carrying the blood wave and holding it tightly against the white sun.

"Ugh~!"

"Break it for me!"

He shouted in a low voice, and the blood wave changed accordingly, splitting and flowing towards the long sword, entwining and spreading, gradually forming a blood-red giant sword.

He clenched his teeth tightly, sweat dripped from his forehead, and his trembling arms exerted force again, using the last strength to swing the blood-red giant blade.

"Bang!"

"The blood blade danced in the air, and the white sun was split into two!"

"Bang!"

Two huge flame flowers bloomed on Kachis Island, and Natsu, who was exhausted after cutting the giant sun, fell from the sky.

...

"Ace!"

After the explosion, Sabo and Luffy rushed over and found that Ace was just unconscious, so they put down their worries.

…

The middle of the explosion.

Natsu, who was covered with terrible scars caused by the flames, was unconscious and lay quietly among the burning ruins.

…

The next day.

In a bright room, a girl was lying on the bed, moving her stiff body, and Natsu, who was wrapped in bandages, woke up from his coma.

"Benefactor! You are awake!" The girl's pleasant voice sounded.

"Who are you?"

Before the girl answered, footsteps sounded outside the door, and Ace, who was also wrapped in a lot of bandages, walked in.

"How is it! Are you feeling better?" Ace asked with a smile standing by the bed.

"Why didn't you kill me!" Natsu asked back, but his voice was still emotionless.

"Why should I kill you? You are not a pirate. As for the favor you owe Roderick..."

At this point, Ace paused and looked at the injuries on Natsu's body, meaning that you have already paid it back.

"What do you want me to do?"

Natsu didn't believe that the other party kept him, just because he was not a pirate. The damage caused by his own battle was enough to kill him several times.

Seeing that his little thoughts were discovered by the other party, Ace simply said directly, "I want you to join the Windmill Kingdom."

"I promise you!" Before Ace could continue to persuade him, Natsu directly agreed.

"Anyway, I have nowhere to go!"
