#chapter 588

Thoughts:

- lol, Sabo just straight on stole someone’s ship :D

- “He’s interfering with the ceremony!” the Celestial Dragons are coming and I hope Sabo will be long gone before they’ll come

- too late, they’re here

- …um.

- *blinks*

- what. What was that for.

- so, uh. This happened.

- …oh god, is Sabo okay?

- “Saint Jalmac! There’s a child on that boat!” “If he hoisted a pirate flag, that makes him a pirate” Are you brainless? Do you have any brain at all?

- O_O THEY DID IT AGAIN

- FUCK FUCK FUCK SABO!!!!

- the ship is now a wreck!!!!!!

me:

- AAAAAAAA

- does it mean Sabo is dead or what. I would swear I heard of him as adult? No, he must be alive, even if his hat is floating around in the sea.  There’s NO WAY

- on a POSITIVE note, Ace and Dadan are alive and back!

- Luffy so happy :D

- ok, so Ace says that they beat Bluejam easily but fDadan got badly burned and they had to hide and recover

- “I hope Sabo’s not worried about us” oh boy :(

- **** Celestial Dragons

- “Ace, why didn’t you run away back there?” “…Sometimes, I get so angry… And I feel like if I run away… I’ll lose something I could never get back.” …Zoro really is like Ace, eh? And looks like these instincts can be wrong. I mean, big fire, younger brother>meaningless fight, right? Well, not for Ace

- Ace says he stayed because of Luffy. Ah, ok

- ! Dadan’s remembering Garp’s talk about Roger!!!

(lol, I wrote Luffy first :D It’s Gold Roger=Pirate King=Luffy in my mind)

- …Garp really admired him, eh?

- “Even if he hates his father, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.” It really didn’t. I love Dadan noticed it

- oh, Dogura’s, the fellow bandid, came back from the city. He saw Sabo’s… demise

- …he told them and they don’t believe him :( to be honest I didn’t believe too  though I saw it with my own eyes

- “It’s true! It was so sudden I doubted my own eyes! I thought it was a dream or something!” right? Would you believe it, if you were Luffy and Ace? They survived Gray Terminal but Sabo is dead even though he was in a way safer place? Where’s logic in this, right?

- “Sabo… You weren’t happy after all.” “Why didn’t we try to take him back?” kids… :(

- “I’m gonna avenge Sabo!” ACE NO

- DADAN HAD ENOUGH

- “It’s this nation that killed Sabo! It’s this world! Do you think you can do anything about it? Your father died and changed the entire era! Become as big a man as him before you even think about getting yourself killed!” wow, what a speech. This is the most parental Dadan ever was. But truly, she gave Ace even more issues here. I’m not mad, she also saved his life at the moment

- (we really get to see what made Ace that way. All his issues in retrospect, his whole character, how his convictions were his strengths and weaknesses both all along)

- Luffy cried all night :(

- !!

- They got letter post-mortem from Sabo!

- I’m typing all of it in one go

- “Ace, Luffy, did you get hurt in the fire? I’m worried about you guys, but I know you’re all right. Unfortunately for you two, be the time you get this letter I’ll already be at sea. A lot of stuff happened, but I decided to set sail before you, guys. My destination is anywhere but here. I’m going to become stronger so I can be a pirate. Pirates are freer than anyone else in this world. We brothers should all become pirates one of these days! Then we can meet again somewhere out there. This ocean is vast and free! We’ll meet again someday!

Another thing, Ace, are you the oldest brother or am I? It might be weird to have two oldest brothers and one little brother, but the bond we share is the greatest treasure we have. Luffy is still weak and a crybaby to boot…”
