Naruto: I am Ninja World Ghost Story, who are you?

"I don't have any money."

The money is all kept in the dormitory at the main campus.

"So."

Uchiha Bufan entered the room, grabbed Tina's chin, and stared directly at her:

"After meeting the Empress of the Kuja Pirates, I will keep my head down from now on."

"Do you understand?"

"Mmm," Tina replied in a barely audible voice.

While Smoker and a group of Marines were chasing Luffy alone, Tashigi encountered Zoro. Zoro looked at the person who looked almost exactly like Kuina, but couldn't bring himself to kill her, and the situation became deadlocked.

On another street, a father and son finally met.

The man removed his white hood and the white cloth covering half his face, revealing a face almost identical to Ace's. Whether it was his eyes, nose, or overall features, anyone passing by would have thought they were father and son.

"Who are you!" Ace looked at the newcomer in shock. The appearance, which seemed to be printed with the same mark as himself, was enough to make him freeze on the spot, his pupils dilating in shock.

"You unfilial son!!!"

The words had barely left his lips when the iron fist was about to strike. By the time Ace reacted, the fist was already a few centimeters from his face.

"Elementalization!"

Ace was confident that this move would be enough to dodge the man's attack, but he didn't notice the disdainful smile on the man's lips—Bang!

After a loud bang, Ace's face was completely deformed and twisted, and his entire body was sent flying, crashing into the wall of the building behind him.

Rumbling--

Inside the wall on the first floor, a family was still eating when they realized the wall was gone, and all three of them stopped what they were doing.

Chapter 175 A loving father and a filial son

"Um... are you alright, buddy?"

Inside the house, the family, who were having dinner, gently inquired about Ace's condition.

"It's nothing." Ace, rubbing his slightly swollen left cheek, got up from the mud and bricks. Seeing that he had damaged someone's house, he apologized somewhat sheepishly to the people inside...

"Damn it! You actually managed to hit me! If you're so tough, let's fight outside!"

After Ace came out of the house, he directly reached out to provoke Roger.

Roger chuckled. "Alright. Come with me then. I want to see what kind of strength you have after all these years."

"You'll be in for a surprise!" Ace didn't know why he got angry easily whenever he saw this guy. He only remembered halfway there that the guy seemed to be planning to chase Luffy to avoid being caught by the Marines. "Oh no!"

"No, uncle, I still need to save my brother!!"

"Your brother? Luffy?" Roger asked, frowning.

"You actually know my brother?! Are you some kind of relative of his?"

Roger: "......"

Roger paused for a moment, thinking to himself that his son seemed a bit slow on the uptake, still unaware that he was his biological father: "Don't worry. That guy has Rope Tree with him, he'll be fine."

"Let's continue our duel!"

"Or......"

At this point, Roger gave a cold laugh, staring directly into Ace's eyes, his face filled with mockery:

"Are you afraid?"

"Who's afraid of you, you old geezer?!"

On a street in Nahana.

Smoker and his naval crew blocked the path of the Straw Hat Boy and the brown-haired boy:

"That's it."

His serious gaze swept over the flustered Luffy, then turned to the brown-haired boy beside him who had taken out a kunai:

"One of the members of the Justice Pirates."

"130 million Berries".

"Ninja Nawaki".

"You're arrested too!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Smoker's hands transformed into billowing white smoke and attacked directly.

"Oh no!! I can't even touch that old man's power!" Luffy turned to run, but the smoke had already arrived.

"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"

The brown-haired boy's hands moved with extraordinary speed, completing six hand seals in the blink of an eye. He then condensed a bellyful of wind to restrain his opponent and slowly expelled it from his mouth!

woohoo-

Smoker, whose body had transformed into an elemental form, never expected that this ninja would also use such a strange ability, and his entire body was instantly sent flying backward.

Just as Nawaki's technique was about to end, the other Marines decisively opened fire. Several shots rang out, but Luffy perfectly shielded Nawaki from the incoming attacks by standing in his place.

"Rubber, rubber..."

"Bullet ricochet!!"

boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!

"Ahhhhh—" xN

"Go quickly!!"

When Luffy saw that the Marines had been hit by the bullets he fired, he quickly grabbed Nawaki and ran away.

Smoker, who had been blown away by the wind, transformed back into his original form from afar and ran towards them, shouting, "Quick, after them! Don't let the Straw Hat Pirates and the Justice Pirates get away!"

"Yes!"xN

On the sandy outskirts of Nahana, Ace, wearing an orange sun hat and with a few freckles on his cheeks, carried a backpack. After putting it down, he looked ahead.

"Ready to be killed by me?"

"I'm a great pirate with a net worth of 500 million Berries now, not some nobody."

"Uncle, you're not a bounty hunter, are you?"

Roger grinned: "Who knows? In short, I'm neither a member of your brother's pirate crew nor the Justice Pirates."

"I am who I am!!"

Ace sneered, "Heh. Then don't blame me for being impolite."

Whew~~~~~

A small, noisy gust of wind swept across the sandy path between the two, stirring up a lot of loose sand.

Ace clenched his fists, and smoke began to rise from his body, with a faint orange-red light blooming within him.

"The Flame-Flame Fruit? That's the same ability as Miss Red's," Roger analyzed.

"Miss Red? Who is that?" Ace said, then snapped back to reality and scoffed, "Uncle, you don't know that there's only one Devil Fruit, do you?!"

“Of course,” Roger said, “but the world is vast, and no one can say for sure whether someone will be able to replicate the power of a Devil Fruit.”

Ace frowned: "Even so, my Flame-Flame Fruit is still the strongest ability!!"

At that moment, the boy's entire right arm transformed into orange-red light, coalescing into a fist-shaped ball of fire: "Fire Fist!!!"

Roger's vision suddenly revealed a large patch of warm light in the sandy area ahead.

He sneered, "You seem to rely on the power of the fruit a little too much."

Roger picked up a broken sword at random, which was wrapped in a black fluid of Armament Haki, and a trace of Haki condensed around it, causing a black and red lightning flash on the black blade:

"One-Sword Style..."

"Black Blade Cross Slash!!"

The moment the words fell, the blade instantly unleashed two strikes, tearing through Ace's immense fiery power. The sword energy didn't stop, rushing straight towards Ace.

"What amazing sword energy! Is this familiar-looking uncle actually a great swordsman?!" Ace pressed down on his hat to dodge Roger's sword energy and leaped into the air.

"Where are you looking, you brat?!"

Roger's voice came, and Aston sensed something was wrong. He threw a punch with his right fist, knowing that his elemental transformation was useless against the old man.

boom! ! !

Roger didn't use his knife; instead, he clashed with Ace using his left fist.

*Pfft*

Ace rolled on the hot sandy ground, not expecting that his stamina was no match for the old man, and he was knocked down with a single punch.

"What's wrong? Is this all the strength you've got?"

"Damn it." Whether in terms of physical strength or ability, Ace felt he couldn't possibly beat this old man: "Who are you anyway, old man?!"

"Who am I? I'm your father!!!"

"?" Ace was stunned for a moment. The next second, the boy's face darkened, and flames on his body rose higher and higher until they reached the height of a seven or eight-story building.

The boy's aura was awe-inspiring, but Roger on the other side just smiled disdainfully: "Still using your abilities, huh? As expected, those who eat Logia-type Devil Fruits tend to neglect their physical abilities."

"and."

After observing Ace's abilities, Roger mocked again, "You haven't developed your Devil Fruit powers much, have you?! Little Ace."

"You bastard!!"

At this moment, Ace resembled a Super Saiyan, with flames rising all around him and his face filled with rage.

"How dare you insult me! Insult my white-bearded old man!!!"

Roger's forehead creased with a large "well" shape as he listened. Ace continued:

I want you to know.

"My father is not someone anyone can insult!!!"

The orange-red flames surrounding Ace began to extend into the surrounding sand, forming fierce rings of fire that eventually converged into a gigantic fireball.

"Great Flame Ring: Emperor Yan!"

Boom boom boom——

The moment the fireball hurtled towards them, the bounty hunters who were really looking to make money experienced being mere spectators. Not only did they lay down their weapons and become completely devoid of any evil thoughts, but some even felt their legs go weak.

"very scary..."

"Is this the great pirate with a bounty of 500 million?! Should we make a run for it?"

"We are no match for this kind of enemy."

"Instead of staying here to die with that old man, we'd better leave quickly. Oh, and while you're at it, come and help me up."

"And I."

"Add me one."

"..."

The four bounty hunters exchanged glances and then realized that their companions' legs were using a butterfly-style cooling system to blow air on themselves.

Good grief, your legs went weak too!

......

"Is this the gift for my biological father?!"

"He truly is my good son!!"
