Who will it be? (One Piece ff)

3. Another face

Ace and I have been on the open sea for hours now. Thanks to his fast pace, we made rapid progress. Nevertheless, I'm a bit mad at Ace! The full post blew my pants!! Every damn time he stepped on the gas even more, he had to spray so much spark that my pants easily caught fire!

Yes, okay, my pants can no longer be saved one way or another with all the cut holes and the blood. Nevertheless, he does not have to add burn holes!! URGH! I could turn the guy's neck around! But when I do that, I'm stuck here at sea because only he can operate the water glider and I can't swim anymore since I ate the devil fruit as a child. So I'm stuck in a little quandary!

Okay Olivia, calm down. Take a deep breath. Exhale deeply.

Now let's take a closer look at Ace! You don't get this opportunity every day and besides, I can distract myself from turning his neck around.

He's tall, not as huge as Kid, but still at least one head taller than me. Furthermore, he has broad shoulders. They are also muscular. Damn! His whole back is a single muscle pack! Just like his belly! Not only does he have a six-pack like most men, no, he has 8.

My gaze automatically wandered to his legs, which were just a little in flames, because he could only move the water glider in this way. He's not fat, definitely not! I believe that he has absolutely not a bit of fat on his whole body and that even though he eats like a barn robber. At least that's what Luffy told me once. My gaze wandered a little bit higher again. His ass is not too thick, but also not a board, so in short: Perfect. He also has large hands with long, narrow fingers. All in all, a nice man to look at. OK! He's fucking hot! And I don't mean his devil power by that.

"Do you like what you see?~"

With this question, Ace tore me out of my thoughts and at the same time made me understand that he had noticed my looks. How embarrassing!! If there was a hole here, I would hide in it and not get out so quickly!

Immediately I averted my gaze and tried desperately not to turn red. Of course, I failed again.
Super! Just great! You meet a nice guy who interests you, who doesn't try to kill you right away and you get caught staring. It couldn't be more obvious. Ahhhhhhhh damn! He is still waiting for an answer.

I cleared my throat and replied, "Yes, I like what I see. Do you have a problem with that?"

He starts laughing. Why the hell does he start laughing?! Did I say something funny?

"No, I don't have a problem with it, because I also see something that I like very much." he said with a smile and stares at me.

Immediately I turn red again and quickly look away. As if this is not noticeable. I would love to slap my face with my flat hand now, but that would be too noticeable.

I winced when Ace's flames went out on his legs and he turned to me. "What?" I asked a little more pattily than intended.

"Show me your wounds on your leg. I'm not a doctor, but at least I can get first aid." he replied. "I'm guaranteed not to take off my pants here you flamethrowers!!" I blabbered at him with a bright red head.

"Don't worry, I didn't want that. We can do that later in a room, but not here where everyone sees us." he laughed. I don't know if he laughs at me or just because he thinks it's funny. "How then?" I asked skeptically, skilfully ignoring the second part of his statement.

He looked at my pants and then just said: "The pants are already coked on anyway, so we just make hot pants out of them. They are certainly very good for you." - "Whose fault do you think it is that my pants fucking up again are you flat pliers?!" I blared insulted him and added calmly: "How should I convert the pants to hot pants? I don't have scissors."

He thought for a moment. Then he formed a flame on his index finger and cut off my trouser leg without further ado. I couldn't react so quickly, because my long black pants turned into a short black hot pants.

You can't say he cut well, but it worked. I gave him a poisonous look, which of course he skilfully ignored. While he examined the cuts on my legs, I let my gaze wander over the sea. There were hardly any waves. Not a single ship far and wide in sight. Even in the sky there were no clouds to be seen.

"It's pleasantly quiet out here." I then realized and said, so Ace knew what I was thinking about.

"Yes, a little too quiet for my taste." Ace replied seriously.

Why is it suddenly so serious? Does he want to summon something?

Just when I had asked myself these questions internally, I was able to answer them directly.

Out of nowhere, a large light blue dome formed around us. "What the heck? Are we here in the circus or what's the fuck?!" I asked of course again completely past the topic. Even Ace looked at me like a new person when I made this incredibly intelligent statement.

Yep, every now and then I give a total mental thin whistle of myself. So don't pay any further attention! Back to the subject with this weird inverted bowl and its culprit.

"Scambles." we heard only one man say and we were no longer in the water. No, we were on a bigger ship. Or rather, a submarine. Furthermore, in front of us stood some men in white overalls and a polar bear in an orange jumpsuit. The polar bear is damn cute! But I should rather focus on the person right in front of me. Because this person is none other than Trafalgar Law, the surgeon of death.

HOW THE HELL DID HE FIND US?!?!?! I looked around more often to make sure that no one followed us!

"How could you follow us so quickly and, above all, how could you sneak up on us?" Ace now took the floor. He spoke to me completely from the soul!

"In case you haven't noticed, I own a submarine. Submarines are significantly faster underwater than over water. Accordingly, we were able to sneak up and strike. Eustass has also set sail to find you little one and he's." Law said calmly, as if talking about the weather. Nevertheless, his voice has a touch of cold and danger...

"It's really not good to eat cherries with you isnt it, you brickhouse? What do I care about Kid? What do you interest me? And above all, don't call me 'little' I'm not a child anymore! I can't help the monkeys like you or Kid get so big!" I replied more than anything else. Typically, my mouth was faster than my head and before I could stop it, the insults had already left my mouth.

But it's true with brickhouse, he's easily one and a half heads taller than me. Despite this, he didn't seem to like my statement entirely. Its complete charisma has taken on an aggressive and vicious touch.

Not good.. If there's one thing I've learned, it's never to make notorious pirates angry.

In such stupid situations, however, one of my many bad habits shows up again and again. I like to provoke people who give me an opportunity to do so.

From time to time I should stick to what Rayleigh has told me often enough:

"Think first, then talk!!"

Because now there is a rather pissed Trafalgar Law in front of me and I think my emotional outburst he does not let sit on him so much...
