One Piece: Fire Emperor Arrives

"My father's name is Gol D. Roger."

"Gol D. Roger!" Hearing this name, Xia Qi's calm face couldn't help showing a look of surprise, "This is really amazing, I didn't expect that man to still have blood to survive. .”

She looked at Ace for a while, then suddenly sighed and said, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be the biological son of the Pirate King. No wonder the old man asked me to pay attention to your news after you appeared on the sea."

Only Rayleigh and a few old crew members knew about the relationship between Roger and Lujiu. Even Shanks at the time didn't know about the existence of Ace's mother.

As for why Roger gave Estor to Garp instead of Rayleigh and the others, probably only Roger himself knows.

"Yeah, even though I don't want to admit it, I do have his blood flowing through me." Ace picked up the wine glass, drank the wine in one gulp, then put the glass down and said, "It's just that that guy did this to me. My father was a bastard, so I inherited the name 'Portcas' from my mother who was so kind to me."

"However, I didn't expect that Senior Rayleigh was actually paying attention to me. It seems that he must know my identity." Ace suddenly laughed.

"It seems so." Xia Qi nodded and said, "But although the old man asked me to pay attention to your news, he did not tell me your identity."

"Senior Rayleigh probably wants to protect me." Ace smiled mockingly and said, "Although I myself disdain the bloodline of that bastard father, in the eyes of the world, I have inherited the evil spirit of One Piece. As a bloodline, I am a 'hidden danger' that must be eradicated in the eyes of the world government and many people."

"That's right." Xia Qi nodded and said, "If the world government and the navy know your identity, they will definitely eradicate you at all costs. After all, they are more afraid of a pirate king appearing on the sea than anything else."

"So, you came to Lei Li to seek his asylum?" Xia Qi suddenly asked.

"How could that happen?" Ace laughed and shook his head, saying, "As a man, no matter how thick-skinned I am, I would never do such a 'shameless' thing."

"During this period, I have been wandering around the new world. Although I have not met the Four Emperors, I have met many strong people. At the same time, I have realized my own shortcomings. In addition, my identity seems to have been known, so I want to Make yourself stronger in the shortest possible time.”

"Although I have eaten the natural devil fruit, in the new world, domineering is the mark of a strong person. I came to see Senior Rayleigh this time to ask him to be my master and teach me how to use domineering. "Ace said.

"That's it." Xia Qi nodded, then took out a small phone bug and said, "If it's you, Rayleigh probably won't refuse, and he probably also wants to see you."

Xia Qi dialed the phone, and Lei Li's voice came from the other side: "Xia Qi, are you calling at this time? What's the matter?"

"Well, there is a special guest at home. Come back and meet him." Xia Qi said slowly.

"Oh? A special guest?" Reilly on the other side of the phone pondered for a while, and then said, "Okay, I'll go back right away."

Xia Qi hung up the phone and said to Ace, "Rayleigh will be shocked when he sees you when he comes back later."

Ace smiled and did not answer. He just pushed the wine glass in front of Xia Qi and said politely: "Please have another drink."

Not long after, the bartenders were pushed aside, and a silver-haired Rayleigh walked in.

Seeing Ace, Rayleigh was stunned for a moment, then smiled happily and said to him, "So it's you. I've wanted to see you for a long time."

Ace stood up and said politely: "Senior Rayleigh, I'm really sorry that I came to visit you just now."

"It doesn't matter, I'm very happy that you can come to see me." Rayleigh waved his hand, tears flashing in his eyes, he patted Ace on the shoulder and said, "I am the one who should say sorry. When I found out that Lu Jiu had given birth to a son, I was really happy, but at that time I was closely watched and couldn't see you."

When Rayleigh first knew about Ace's existence, it was already two years after Roger was executed. The reason why Roger paid Ace to Garp instead of their old brothers was because they were controlled by the World Government at that time. People watch closely, and if Ace is around them, and if the people in the World Government find out about it, they will definitely eradicate him at all costs. No one knows better than Rayleigh how afraid the people in the World Government are of Roger.

Even when he knew that Garp adopted Ace, he didn't even dare to secretly take a look at Roger's only bloodline.

Rayleigh knew very well that only by being around someone like Garp could Ace grow up safely, because no one would have thought that the bloodline of the Pirate King would be raised by a naval hero.

Because of Ace and the red hair, Rayleigh has been paying attention to the East China Sea, so when Ace went to sea using his mother's surname, he knew it immediately, but he still did not dare to contact Ace, at least at this time Ace Carrying the identity of Garp's grandson is still very safe.

The reason why Rayleigh was able to live in seclusion in the Chambord Islands for twenty years was not because the people in the World Government didn't know about it, but because the price required to capture him was too high. Therefore, there was a tacit understanding between the two parties. As long as Rayleigh never went to sea again, the World Government would He will not provoke him and will only pay close attention to his every move.

Although Rayleigh knew that it was only a matter of time before Ace's identity was exposed after he went to sea, if he contacted Ace rashly, it would only speed up the time for Ace's identity to be exposed. That's why after he learned that Ace had gone to sea, he just let Xia Qi silently paid attention and did not make contact.

After hearing Rayleigh's words, Ace seemed to understand the reason why Roger entrusted him to Garp instead of Rayleigh and his gang of old brothers. He also understood why Rayleigh did not meet Ace in the original plot. Si was contacted because they were all protecting him.

As the remnants of the Roger Pirates, even if the pirate group has been disbanded, almost all of the crew members who were captured by the crew of 'Raff Drew' were executed. The remaining ones, except for people like Ben Beckman, Except for those who have returned to the world, almost everyone else who is still alive is under the strict surveillance of the World Government.

However, the people who can survive are all very powerful people like Rayleigh. Capturing them will cost a lot, and they may be forced to return to the world, so the world government does not force them excessively, but just monitors them silently. With.

"Senior Rayleigh, I'm very sorry to disturb you. I'm here this time to ask you to teach me how to practice domineering." Ace looked at Rayleigh and explained his purpose.
