One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

House of bandits.

At this time, the house was full of excitement, and it all started when An brought Luffy back.

20 minutes ago.

Ann took Luffy and used the Moon Step all the way to rush back to the Bandit's House from the Uncertain Object Transfer Station.

He handed Luffy over to Dadan and the others, while he sat leisurely on a chair drinking tea.

At first, Dadan and the others refused to treat Luffy.

Until An, who was sitting on a chair drinking tea, blew the tea and said leisurely.

"Dear Ms. Dadan, you don't want Grandpa Garp to know about it. He just left your place in the morning and his good grandson will be seriously injured and comatose in the afternoon!"

"Does anyone really want to spend the rest of his life in prison? No way! No way!"

Thinking of Garp's ferocious face, Dadan wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

In order not to spend the rest of their lives in prison, Dadan and the other three hurriedly bandaged Luffy's injuries.

During the series of busy work of the three of them, they finally bandaged up Luffy.

Looking at Luffy who was wrapped like a rice dumpling, An twitched the corner of his mouth.

I thought to myself, "How afraid are you of going to jail?"

Lunch time.

A huge barbecue was placed in the center of the room, and Luffy, who was tied into a rice dumpling, sat next to An.

Hello! You two, stop laughing, Luffy pouted and said dissatisfiedly.

Hahaha, Ace and Sabo couldn't control their mouths anymore and burst out laughing.

Listening to Ace and Sabo laughing, Luffy slowly laughed too.

"I'm starting!"

As the loud sound fell, everyone began to snatch the food in front of them.

Luffy stared at everyone feasting, thinking about his own body wrapped into a rice dumpling.

He comforted himself: "Meat doesn't taste good at all. It doesn't matter if you don't eat it."

Looking at Luffy comforting himself, An took a large piece of meat and stuffed it into Luffy's mouth.

Damn...

Woo woo woo...

"The meat is so delicious."

"Sister, I want more!"

Looking at Luffy's funny expression.

Bursts of laughter came from inside the house.

…

1 month later.

Within this month, the relationship between Ace, Luffy, Sabo and An grew by leaps and bounds.

Through Luffy as a link.

Saab has recognized An, and Sister An calls out to her every day.

Only Ace still doesn't admit that An is his sister, but he is much closer to An in behavior.

In front of the new villa in Colbo Mountain.

This villa was built by Anrang bandits a month ago.

For this reason, An also promised to give everyone a big red envelope after the completion of the project.

Luffy held his hands and walked back and forth around the new house, constantly saying how beautiful it was.

What a beautiful house, isn't it Ace? Sabo said as he poked Ace.

Ace nodded perfunctorily, thinking that Luffy would leave the bandit's house after today, Ace felt empty in his heart.

"Luffy, we're going in."

"Wait for my sister."

Walking around the villa, An introduced the layout of the house to everyone.

The first floor is the area for daily activities, where facilities such as restaurants, bathrooms, and kitchens are distributed.

There are four bedrooms on the second floor, one for me, Luffy, Ace, and Sabo.

"Hearing An say he has his own room," Ace felt warm in his heart.

"Is there a room for me here?" Sabo said in surprise.

Ann nodded.

"That's great Ace, we finally have our own home." Sabo said towards Ace.

"Sister, are we going to live here from now on?"

"Yes, we will no longer live with Dadan and the others."

"Great," Luffy cheered, raising his little hands.

"Ace, are you unhappy?"

Ann asked looking at the confused Ace.

Ace shook his head and said nothing.

Looking at Ace who was silent, An knew it was necessary to have a chat with Ace.

An then introduced the villa to everyone.

The third floor is the guest room. If you have guests or grandpa comes back in the future, you can stay here.

The last and most important part of the house.

Walking up the wooden stairs, the blue sky came into view, with white clouds wandering in the sky.

The view of Mount Colpo comes into view.

Walking to the railing, you can look down at the windmill village with an unobstructed view.

"It's really nostalgic."

Everyone was lying on the railings admiring the beautiful scenery.

ah! Suddenly Luffy shouted into the distance, the voice echoed in the mountains, and finally came back to Luffy's ears.

"Hehe, that's really interesting."

"Saab, Ace, sister, you guys, come and play too!"

"You're so noisy, kid, who are you calling a man-woman?"

The echo came

"You're so noisy, kid, who are you calling a man-woman?"

Listening to the echo of Dadan's voice, everyone burst into laughter.

…

Quiet night.

In order to celebrate their move to a new home, Ace and Sabo went to the mountains to catch many wild animals.

Everyone was sitting in the open space outside the villa, with a bonfire lit in the middle, and a huge leg of lamb was roasting on the bonfire.

Everyone in Dadan was very happy eating barbecue and drinking wine.

After a while, all the bandits became drunk and sang unknown songs.

Finally, they held hands and danced an unknown dance.

Luffy and Sabo were competing to see who could eat more barbecue.

A fight.

Luffy won by a slim margin.

The two of them lay on the grass stroking their round bellies.

…

"Ace, let's go to the rooftop to talk."

Ace nodded.

On the roof of the villa, Ace and An stood in front of the railing, looking down at the windmill village in the night.

The sea reflects the beauty of the moon, and the bright white moonlight dances on the sea surface.

If you have anything to ask, you can ask me now.

An smoothed her hair that was messed up by the mountain wind and asked Ace gently.

Ace paused for a while, hesitated again and again, and finally summoned up the courage to ask the question in his heart.

Are you really my sister? The tone was slightly frightened.

An understood Ace's mood. After being alone for 10 years, he finally found that he seemed to have family members.

That kind of emotion can easily make people worry about gains and losses.

An, turned to look at Ace and said in a deep voice: "Do you want to ask.

Am I the daughter of Pirate King Gol D. Roger?

Boom, a powerful wave of joy hit Ace's brain, making Ace take a few steps back.

Ace was pretty sure Ann didn't know he was Roger's son.

But she said the name and the answer was obvious.

He stammered and asked, "What you said is true."

Ann didn't answer Ace's question directly. He asked back: "Do you think we are siblings, Ace."

Ace couldn't understand Ann's question, and his mind was confused with the huge joy.

What's the meaning?

Ann took a step forward, stood in front of Ace, and said in a strong voice: "Look at us carefully, Ace, the same freckles! The same eyes! The same appearance!

"Does it really matter whether we are siblings or not?"

"It's not important!"

Ann, looked at Ace with piercing eyes.

"Say it in a firm voice."

"People in the world only care about themselves and get the results they want."

"The truth doesn't matter, as long as it gets the results they want, even if it's a lie."

"So, it doesn't matter whether we are siblings or not. What matters is that we have a bond and the same heart."

Ace came back to his senses and thought after listening to Ann's words.

"Yes, it doesn't matter whether we are biological siblings or not. In the eyes of others, they must think you are my biological sister."

"However, I still want to know whether you are my biological sister with the same father and mother."

Looking at Ace's almost crazy face, An was stunned.

She underestimated a lonely boy's desire for family affection.

Eventually, Ann decided to tell a white lie.

She gently pulled Ace into her arms and said in his ear: "Yes, my full name is Portcas D. Ann."

"She is your half-sister."

Ace in his arms heard this name that was the same as his own.

I could no longer control the water droplets in my eyes and let them fall down.

He patted Ace's thin back gently.

An said softly: "Ace, don't care about other people's opinions, don't care about other people's eyes, live for yourself."

"Be it the son of Pirate King Gol D. Roger, the child of the devil, a hero, or a villain."

“It doesn’t matter what it is!!”

"No matter how much others don't care about you or hate you, at least Luffy Sabo and I will always care about you."

"So, survive no matter what!!"

"Ace."

There are so many stars in the sky, but only a few of them belong to us.
