I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

“A traitor in our Whitebeard Pirates killed his crewmates and fled. As the captain, I have to bring him back.”

Ace explained.

“I also read the newspapers, and I heard about Blackbeard on Drum Island.”

Bai Yun returned home.

"So?" Ace's meaning was clear and concise: then why did you stop me in the first place?

Bai Yun replied concisely and clearly.

"do not go."

Chapter 135 Bai Yun vs. Ace

Reunion is always accompanied by separation.

After reuniting with Ace amidst the rapeseed flowers, they had a brief conversation, and Ace gave her the Life Paper before saying goodbye.

"Hey, you guys haven't been at sea long, but you're already pretty rich. Luffy, look at that huge clock, and the diamonds too."

"Never mind, it's time, I should go."

After saying that, Ace was about to leave.

But Bai Yun grabbed his ankle and pulled him back, saying, "Don't go."

Ace returned to the Going Merry and, seeing Bai Yun's serious expression and tone, stopped joking and asked seriously.

"why?"

Bai Yun didn't rush to answer, but looked at him and suddenly blurted out a few words.

"Because you will die."

Ace was stunned, as were the others.

Only Luffy shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about! Hakuyun!!"

Bai Yun ignored them and continued speaking to Ace, "I can't let you die!"

Bai Yun realized that he had been too blunt.

“I mean, this is the worst-case scenario.”

Do you know how strong Blackbeard is?

"You should know that the three scars on Shanks' left eye, who is of the same status as Whitebeard and is also one of the Four Emperors, were left by Blackbeard!"

"Besides, Blackbeard isn't alone anymore... I found out on Drum Island that there are four of them now."

"You're going to chase them all by yourself? Are you going to fight four of them? To put it bluntly, you might not even be able to beat them one-on-one!"

I can't let you die!

"What?! So the scar on Shanks' eye was left by that Blackbeard guy!"

Luffy said in surprise.

How did you know, Bai Yun?

Bai Yun pointed to his mouth and said, "Everyone has a mouth. If you don't understand something, just ask. When I was a child, I asked my mentor Beckman, and he told me about it, which is why I have a deep memory of the name Blackbeard."

Ace remained silent.

Usopp silently raised his little hand, "I...I think Bai Yun is right."

"The fact that the opponent was able to leave a scar on the eye of a Yonko shows their strength. It's better to... it's better to think things through more carefully."

Bai Yun stepped forward and placed his hands on Ace's shoulders.

"Ace, listen to me."

It's not that I look down on you.

"Blackbeard's strength is a mystery. Although it was a scar on Shanks' eye ten years ago when he hadn't yet become one of the Four Emperors, I knew Shanks and the others ten years ago. To be able to do that, Blackbeard's strength should not be underestimated."

"Moreover, while you were hunting Blackbeard, he was building up his power, and you were all alone."

"There have been too many changes. You should go back and discuss this further with Uncle Whitebeard and the others."

Bai Yun's words silenced Ace. He understood that what Bai Yun said was true, and the consequences of his prediction might come true.

But after thinking about it, Ace smiled, and Bai Yun knew at a glance that it was all over.

“I know, Bai Yun.”

"I understand everything you're saying."

Bai Yun's inner thoughts: You knew that, yet you still went!!!

"But I must uphold the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates; that's my belief. If I can't even uphold my own belief, I might as well be dead!!"

"You're right, Luffy."

Ace turned his head to look at Luffy.

Luffy nodded and said with a smile.

"correct."

Bai Yun's inner thoughts: You're asking him? He's just as stupid as you!! And Luffy, you laugh, just wait until the Marineford War happens, then let's see if you'll still be laughing!!

"If it's to protect the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates, then why doesn't Whitebeard hunt down Blackbeard himself?!"

Bai Yun asked.

"My father didn't send anyone to call me back, which means he approved of what I did."

Ace replied immediately.

Bai Yun couldn't stand it anymore; as expected, verbal persuasion is only effective against villains in action-packed anime.

White luck: (╬￣ dishes￣)

"Fine, if you won't take the soft approach, then we'll take the hard one!" (Seriously.)

Bai Yun said with a smile.

"What do you mean? Bai Yun?"

Ace asked a silly question, and Bai Yun punched him.

"If you want to go, fine!"

"Then defeat me!!"

"If you lose, you'd better go back to the Whitebeard Pirates."

Bai Yun took two steps back, stared at Ace and said, Ace covered his nose, and seeing Bai Yun's eyes, he knew he wasn't joking, and his temper immediately flared up.

"Fine! Since you want to get beaten up, I'll grant your wish! Bai Yun!"

"You only beat me when we were kids by cheating with a gun!"

"I'm not afraid of guns now."

Ace raised his hands and rubbed them together, then pressed his neck to warm up.

Bai Yun rolled his eyes at him. "You don't need to do all this nonsense. Let's go ashore and fight!"

"it is good!"

"Let's go!"

Ace replied.

"........"

"........"

"You go first!" ×2

Ace and Bai Yun said in unison... "Two childish devils."

"Why should I go first?!" ×2

"Don't mimic me!" ×2

"Damn Ace!"

"Mixed protein transport!!"

The two started arguing over some trivial matters; honestly, they're not even three years old combined.

Nami looked worried, but Luffy was grinning foolishly. "You still want to?! Your two brothers are fighting!!"

But as soon as I finished speaking, I saw the two of them bickering, and a bead of sweat rolled down the back of my head in exasperation.

Luffy laughed, hands on his hips.

"Haha, it's great to see Ace and Baiyun spar again."

"And who said Bai Yun is the older brother! I am!"

"Is Bai Yun younger than you?"

Zoro asked the question sincerely.

Luffy shook his head. "Bai Yun is the same age as me, but he forgot what month his birthday is. Even if we share the same birthday, I still think of him as my younger brother."

"I think he feels the same way."

Zoro replied, in a somewhat awkward way.

"Haha, let's not talk about that now, let's just watch their match."

Luffy replied with a smile, but as soon as he finished speaking, before Bai Yun and Ace had even disembarked, a noisy commotion suddenly broke out.

Upon hearing the sound, Weiwei looked over, and her expression instantly turned to terror.

Five BW ships then sailed over.

"The captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"That's right, I saw it with my own eyes, [Fire Fist Ace] is him!"

"As long as we deal with him, we'll definitely be promoted to commander."
