Chapter 03: Chapter 3 Diamanti

"Captain Ace, what's wrong, people from the Don Quixote family are coming to kill us!"

A chubby fat man ran over and shouted to Ace with a worried look on his face.

"The Don Quixote family...did they come here so quickly?" Ace stood up, his face becoming serious.

Although he remembered that Ace's Burnt Fruit was obtained from an uninhabited island in the original plot, but perhaps because of his time travel, Ace's way of obtaining the Burnt Fruit was from the Don Quixote family. He grabbed it, so he expected that the other party would come looking for a place, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

"Lafite, don't panic, be calm." Ace raised his hand, wanting to pat the fat man's shoulder, but found that this damn fat man was more than half a body taller than him, so he had no choice but to put down his arm and pretend to be calm. After saying something, he walked leisurely in the direction from which the fat man came.

"Huh? You don't take the Don Quixote family seriously at all? Captain Ace is really too reliable!" Fatty Lafite looked at Ace's calm back, with little stars in his eyes, and shouted.

On the beach, a luxurious ship with a length of more than 20 meters was docked on the shore. Standing on the bow of the ship was a man wearing a fur-brimmed hat and two facial stripes on his face. Behind him was a group of people who were yelling. Little one.

In the open space in front of the ship, a bald old man with a bruised head was fighting with Gambi, who was holding a heavy sword.

"It's this old man." Seeing the old man fighting Gambi, Ace recognized him at a glance, but he couldn't remember his name. However, he remembered that this old man was not a devil fruit user. Gambi He should be able to handle it, so he had no intention of intervening, and directly found a place to sit down and watch the two people fight.

In the original work, the Don Quixote Pirates are very popular. Almost all of the cadres of the pirate group are Devil Fruit users. There are only a few people who have never eaten Devil Fruit. This old man happens to be one of them. One, and Gumby is the strongest among Ace's current partners. His strength is comparable to that of Ace before he ate the Sha Shao Fruit. He should have no problem dealing with this old man.

Ace raised his head and looked at the man standing on the bow of the ship with the flag of the Don Quixote family. If he remembered correctly, this man should be a superhuman Devil Fruit: the person with the ability to fly the fruit. It seems to be called Diamanti. The highest cadre of the Don Quixote family, but his strength is average.

Ace's eyes scanned around the ship, but he found no other familiar faces. It seemed that these two cadres from the Don Quixote family were the only ones here this time.

"Young man over there, are you the captain of this pirate group?" Diamanti also noticed Ace's arrival, locked his eyes directly on Ace, and asked.

"Ah, I'm the captain." Ace looked up and replied with a sunny smile.

"Your pirate group seems to have taken some things from us. I wonder if you can return them to us?" Diamanti said.

With the intelligence capabilities of the Don Quixote family, if something as important as the Burnt Fruit was robbed, he would naturally not be ignorant of the situation. He had already read Ace's intelligence before coming here, and knew that the person in front of him came from Rao. The boy who took the Shao Shao Fruit from G's hand is a rising star in the sea this year. If he can survive to the second half of the Grand Line, he may become one of this generation's supernovas.

Before coming, he talked with Doflamingo, and Doflamingo gave him two orders. One was to bring back the Shasha Fruit or the person who had eaten the Shasha Fruit, and the other was to bring back the other party. corpse.

However, Diamanti was self-aware. It would be fine if the other party hadn't eaten the Shashao Fruit yet. If he had already eaten it, it would be unclear who turned into a corpse, so he decided to test it out first.

"You're talking about that Devil Fruit, right?" After hearing Diamanti's words, Ace stretched out his finger, and a cluster of flames emerged from his fingertips. He grinned and said, "Sorry, I've already eaten it. .”

"I've already eaten it. That's a pity." Seeing the flames coming out of Ace's fingertips, Diamanti knew that his mission had almost failed, but he still wanted to try hard, take a step forward, and put his feet Only on the edge of the boat, he said to Ace: "Young man, you have two choices now. First, join our Don Quixote family, and second, be hunted by our Don Quixote pirates."

"Ha." Ace said nothing, just smiled, and then put the hat hanging on the back of his neck on his head. At the same time, clusters of flames ignited from all over his body.

"That's it...Rao, come back, let's go back." Seeing Ace's expression, Diamanti knew that Ace rejected his proposal, shouted to the old man who was fighting Gambi, and then said to He looked at Ace and said, "Young man, we will meet again soon."

"Diamanti, if we go back like this, what will happen to the young master's order?" Rao G returned to the ship and said to Diamanti with an ugly face.

The Burnt Fruit is a Devil Fruit that the Don Quixote family spent a lot of effort to obtain. Needless to say, the value of the natural Devil Fruit is not to mention the high-point Burnt Fruit. More importantly, the Burnt Fruit was obtained by him. If someone takes away something from you, if you go back like this, no matter how kind the young master is to his 'family', I'm afraid he will still be punished.

"Virgo is not here, our ability is not enough to take down Xinxing who has eaten the Shashao Fruit, and compared to this, we have more important things to bring to Dover." After Diamanti finished speaking, he directly Turning around, "Go back, Dover will take care of it. No one can take something from our Don Quixote family without paying the price."

Ace did not stop Diamanti and the others from leaving. He knew Doflamingo's character very well, and he also knew that he cared very much about every cadre of the Don Quixote family. If he only captured the Burning Fruit, there would still be a buffer. At least he will not immediately face the highest combat power of the Don Quixote Pirates. Even if he refuses the solicitation from Doflamingo, the other party will not immediately send people to hunt him down, but if he If Diamanti and Rao G are left behind, the Don Quixote family will immediately launch an unrelenting pursuit of him, and Doflamingo will take action himself, which is something Ace is currently unwilling to face. of.

It's not that he is afraid of the other party...well, he is indeed a little afraid, and there are two factors that make him extremely afraid of the Don Quixote family. One is Doflamingo's identity, and the other is their intelligence capabilities.

There are secrets in his body that must not be exposed at present, so he must try his best to buy as much time as possible to make himself stronger...or find a force strong enough to protect him.
