Chapter 285 - 285 - Brothers Reunited!
"Sa... Sabo?"
Ace's eyes widened as his voice trembled as he called the name that was stored on his heart!
Although the appearance has changed a little from before, the friendly familiarity cannot be faked in any way!
Ace quickly overlapped the person in front of him with the person in his mind. If Sabo was still alive, he would look like this, right?
He was afraid that he was mistaken for someone else, that the mysterious guy in the cloak in front of him was just a guy who looked a little like Sabo.
On the other hand, reason was telling him that Sabo was already dead, as he even witnessed it happening with his own eyes!
And it wasn't just Ace who was disoriented, even Sabo, who had come a long way to look for Ace by listening to Will's casual words, was in a daze!
Why did he just say my name?
Did they meet before?
What about this sense of closeness and familiarity that can't help but burst outward?
Huh? Why am I crying?
Who am I?
Who is Ace?
There seems to be one missing, by the way, who is Luffy?
Wait, Luffy? Who is Luffy again? Wasn't Luffy Leader's son? Why do I know him?
Ouch!
My head hurts!
"AAAHHHHH!" Sabo slammed his hands over his head and the pain was so intense that his face was covered in a cold sweat for a moment!
Koala, who was accompanying him, immediately crouched down and exclaimed in worried alarm, "What's the matter with you, Sabo?"
Sabo?
Is he really called Sabo?
Disoriented, Ace was snapped out of reality by the shout, and then eagerly asked, "Sabo, is that you? Sabo!"
After a dozen or so breaths, Sabo slowly stabilized, then stood back up amidst the nervous looks of Koala and Ace.
"Ah, it's me, Ace!"
Bang!
A big hug wraps Ace around hard!
Still not recovering from the trance-inducing smile that Sabo had just shown him, Ace immediately hugged Sabo tightly, as if he was afraid that it was just a dream!
"Is it really you? Sabo?"
"It's really me!"
"Aren't you dead? I saw it with my own eyes!"
"It's a long story, I was lucky to be saved after the accident..." historical
The tears of the two men were as ugly and funny as if they had burst into tears, but no one laughed at them at this moment, and Koala even wiped her tears secretly.
After a while, they finally recovered from the joy of seeing each other again after so many years, and Ace listened to Sabo's story about his experiences over the years.
"... After I was rescued by Luffy's father, I stayed in the revolutionary army due to my amnesia, until recently, after meeting with 'Faceless' Will, that guy inexplicably asked me to come to you, and at the same time, there was a voice in my heart that told me to come, which made it possible for us brothers to meet, and allowed me to recover memory!"
After hearing this, Ace sighed. He didn't expect it to be like this. It's no wonder that Sabo hasn't come to him and Luffy for so many years. It turned out to be amnesia.
What's more coincidental is that it was Luffy's father who served as a revolutionary leader who rescued Sabo. This is really a coincidence or Is it fate, but no matter what it is, it is wonderful!
But the question on Ace's mind was, "'Faceless' Will? How did he know about our relationship? Did Luffy tell him that?"
"I'm not sure, but if I see him again in the future, I'll have to thank him, otherwise you, me and Luffy won't know when we'll be together again."
"Indeed, if that brat Luffy knew you were still alive, he might be so happy that he might cry and pass out, haha!"
"Don't keep talking about Luffy, you were crying too~"
"I didn't, don't you dare say anything! Obviously, I couldn't help but cooperate with you because I saw you crying!"
"Hahaha, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you've learned to say things you don't mean. Who didn't want to let go just now and almost strangled me, isn't it you?"
"Bastard! I'm going to strangle you right now, do you know how long you've caused me and Luffy to grieve!"
"Help... Help..."
As she watched an irritated Ace playing with a playful-looking Sabo, Koala was stunned.
She had joined the revolutionary army at the age of 13 and had grown up with Sabo, but she had never seen him smile like that before.
While feeling happy for Sabo, Koala also worries that now that Sabo has recovered his memory, will he still stay in the revolutionary army?
Sabo and Ace were so close, there was no guarantee that Sabo would not quit the revolutionary army and go to sea with Ace.
While Koala was in deep thought, Sabo, who had begged for mercy before being spared, came over with a concerned face and waved his hand in front of the stunned Koala.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Huh? I'm not thinking anything but I didn't think you had a brother. "Koala responded in panic, and was once again taken away by Sabo's unprecedented happy smile, he was so happy...
"Not one but two, the Leader's son Luffy is also our brother, the three of us are brothers, the three of us drank sake that makes us brothers.."
At the thought of their idiot brother Luffy, whom he hadn't seen in years, Sabo immediately laughed!
He can't wait to look for Luffy, and the idea of the three brothers reuniting after so many years is really exciting to think about!
Apparently, Ace on the other hand was thinking the same thing, and Sabo's 'resurrection' seemed to have redeemed his soul!
For the first time since Whitebeard's death, Ace felt truly alive and wanted to continue living well!
The naive self that wasn't consumed by the flames of vengeance also had the tendency to 'resurrect', and the empty heart was once again filled.
Sabo and Luffy...
The ASL pirate flag that once flew...
It's good to have you guys... Brothers!
The flame in his heart was rekindled with renewed vigour, and Ace danced around telling Saber about the things he had done since he went to sea.
Sabo quietly listened to Ace's story about the wonderful life over the years, and there was some envy in his eyes, after all, becoming a Pirate was once the common dream of the three brothers.
Although life in the revolutionary army is also very good, and the people there are also very good to him, but the childhood dream that he once had was again remembered, inevitably still makes Sabo feel regret.
And this change was seen by Koala....
