Originally, Ace didn't have much affection for his father who abandoned his wife and children.

After hearing what Kurokas said, he became even more disgusted.

Because that statement is like to Roger, Ace seems to be just a tool born for his long-cherished wish.

Because I couldn't live until that time, I gave birth to a son.

Is such a man really worthy of being a father?

So in a rage, he punched the Spedil through the deck.

Fortunately, this punch did not actively use the ability. After Ace reacted, he immediately absorbed the still burning flames. In the end, only the deck of the Spedil was damaged.

"sorry!"

Ace lowered his head in shame and apologized for destroying the pirate ship.

"I also hate parents who impose their dreams on their children."

As someone who has experienced being forced by his parents to choose a path, Deuce can understand Ace's feelings.

"To be honest, I, as a person with a relatively happy family, may not be qualified to say anything, but I think the vast majority of parents in this world must love their children."

Senluo rarely poured himself a large glass of wine, and then clinked glasses with Ace.

"Your father may not have brought you into this world with the purpose of asking you to help him fulfill his long-cherished wish. He is just a fool who thinks that leaving 'ONEPIECE' to you, the secret treasure that he considers to be the most precious, is the most important thing." A good show of love.”

"Even if you say that, who knows what that guy really thinks?"

Ace took a big sip angrily.

"After all, I haven't even seen that guy's face."

"Etc., etc"

Kurokas couldn't understand the development of the situation since Ace's punch fell.

"what's the situation?"

Skar felt like he was watching the wrong channel.

Wasn't it just now on the set of a hot-blooded boy comic?Why does it now look a bit like the plot of a family mediation column?

"What are you all talking about?"

Lamia has been confused since the final island.

"I'm that guy's son."

Ace wouldn't even say Roger's name.

However, after considering the context, everyone quickly or slowly understood that "that guy" refers to Roger, the Pirate King.

"Captain, it's you!"

Only then did Skar realize what kind of incredible pirate ship he had boarded, and he was so surprised that he didn't know how to continue.

"Ace you..."

Lamia originally wanted to sigh, but then she remembered that she already knew about this, so she shut her mouth and continued to eat the barbecue quietly.

"It turns out, it turns out that's the case. It turns out that bastard still has... It's great."

Kurokas was the last to react, but his eyes were filled with tears before he spoke.

"Sorry, I lost my temper."

Taking off his eyes and wiping away the tears, Kurokas looked at Ace with a little more kindness in his eyes.

"Roger's brain circuit is indeed a bit difficult to understand. It can be said that he is a bastard who has his own way. Thanks to this, we suffered a lot at the beginning. But I can be sure that he is not the kind of person who will use others. People who achieve their own goals.”

Kurokas put his hand on Ace's shoulder,

"Ace, I can be [-]% sure that you came into this world because of love."

"Even if that's the case, I still can't forgive that guy."

Ace still gritted his teeth, unwilling to call Roger his father.

"of course."

Kurokas nodded,

"Of course there is no need to forgive the bastard who left his wife and the unborn child in his belly. I will teach that bastard a lesson when I die. But please don't deny your birth. You came into this world with neither Carrying someone’s obsession does not bring any sin.”

……

The banquet celebrating the Spade Pirates' entry into the Grand Line ended abruptly due to the issue of Ace's life experience.

Despite the persuasion of Senluo and Kurokas, Ace's knot in his heart was still not completely resolved.

But even so, even if he was still a little confused, Ace still had to keep moving forward.

In other words, it is precisely because of confusion that we have to keep moving forward to find the answer.

After Senluo explained the current situation of the pirate group, Kurokas readily gave him a record pointer.

So then it’s time to choose the route, which is about half of the journey of the Grand Line.

According to the only ship regulations, the sailing direction is decided by Ace.

It's just that he was at a loss when faced with seven choices. He didn't know which one to choose.

So he started asking for advice from others.

"I don't have any opinion, it's all up to you."

——Sen Luo

"As long as I have adventures worth documenting, that's all I care about."

——Deus

"I'm going to the Shampoo Islands."

——Lamia

"Okay! Then take the route that passes through the Chambord Islands."

——Ace

"In fact, all seven routes will eventually reach the Shampoo Islands."

——Sen Luo

"Don't look at me! It's enough for me to be a pirate ship. And I don't know anything about the Grand Line."

——Scall

"Would you like to try this route? It's not easy, but it's interesting."

——Kulokas

Looking at the place where Kurokas pointed on the chart, Senluo frowned.

Seeing the change in Senluo's expression, Kurokas immediately understood that he also knew the significance of this route.

"It seems that you even know this, little brother."

"Um"

Senluo nodded. This was the route that Roger before and Luffy after that would choose.

Rationally speaking, he didn't really want to take this route, because there was Alabasta on the route, and Crocodile was in Alabasta.

Smoker was able to enjoy the benefits of the "domineering version" five years in advance, and Senluo speculated that Crocodile might not be able to be domineering.

And Crocodile is not comparable to Moria's salty fish who has lost his motivation to fight. He is still ambitiously trying to find Hades to achieve his goal.

Although I understood from Kurokas that blindly escaping would not work, courage and recklessness were two different things.

It is definitely not a wise thing to face a long-famous natural devil fruit user so early.

"Is this the route that guy took?"

If Senluo and Kurokas couldn't see through such obvious expressions, Ace's head would have been in vain.

"Yes, this is the route he took when he challenged the Grand Line for the second time. It is very challenging and you can see many different scenery. How about it? Do you want to give it a try?"

Kurokas's tone was full of nostalgia,

"It sounds like I agreed to go out to sea in order to find the Lombard Pirates, but in fact I really enjoyed the process of traveling with them."

But after looking around at the members of the Spade Pirates, Kurokas smiled and shook his head.

"Just think of me as being too talkative. Your journey should be decided by yourself. With such a group of partners, I think no matter which route you take, you can leave beautiful memories."
