(WOOOO! Marineford is finished! Sadly this does mean the story will only have 1 more chapter. Anyways enjoy the chapter, and sorry it took me so long to write)
(Also, TYSM for 40K reads!!! That's incredible)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"How- the wha- huh?!" Ace was at a complete loss for words, he could not believe the sight of the individual in front of his very eyes at the moment
Everything felt surreal
His supposedly dead brother was there
It took Ace a few seconds to process this fact
Once it had all finally registered in his head
He proceeded to approach and punch Sabo straight in the abdomenSabo bent down slightly as he groaned in pain
"What was that for?! Ace!" Sabo questioned his sibling
"For being an ass and leaving Luffy in my care for 10 years" Ace responded angrily although the tears that were brimming his eyes and grin that had appeared on his face were enough evidence that he was beyond happy to see his 'dead' brother alive and well
Ace was about to hug the blond when a knife covered in haki barely graced his cheek and left a small cut
As all three siblings turned they were greeted by a very beaten up Blackbeard, who looked like he was about to drop dead on the floor at any second
"I bet on crocodile meat that I can give him the final blow" Sabo teased as he gently nudged his brother on his shoulder
"Guess im getting the crocodile meat then" Ace replied before sprinting towards Teach
"Oh no you don't!" The top hatted blond went right after the fire fruit user
Luffy just stayed back and watched as his older brothers ran towards Blackbeard with a very sinister look in their eyes
The straw hatted teen smiled as he felt another presence neared and stood beside him
"They still have so much energy, young people have a lot of fire in them I guess" A certain red haired yonko spoke out
"Your not even that old, Shanks! Stop talking like a 60 year old man" Luffy chuckled
"Im older than you brat, so shut it" Shanks smiled
"Its been quite a long time, huh?"
"It has" Luffy replied
"Take care of that hat until the next time we meet, will you?"
"Of course"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Luffy! Stop moving god dammit! You're going to tear your stitches!" Ace yelled as Luffy ran around laughing
"He's right for once, Luffy. You should stop running around" Sabo added
"What do you mean for once I'm right?! I'm always right!" Ace yelled
"Sure you are, Ace"
Luffy watched as his brothers fought, one more calmly than the other
They were currently on Rusukaina, the place where Luffy had trained with Rayleigh in his past timeline
A part of the Whitebeard pirates were on the Moby Dick docked beside the abandoned island
The rest took a different ship back to Marineford to bury the bodies of those who had passed during the war
Ace and Whitebeard had insisted on going with the crew to bury the bodies, but the Whitebeard pirates had promptly refused and forced them to stay back to recover and rest
Luffy looked back towards his brother again
They were finally together
He had done it
He had saved Ace
