Miyuki: Lay down ace properly on the ground.

As she strokes ace head she remember his last words.

Flashback.

Ace: "You're the only one I trust... Take care of luffy for me..."

Flashback end.

Miyuki: Wipe her tears. "I will... Your dreams... Your wish... I will make it all come true... That is the least I could do for you. To atone for my sin..." Crying. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... Ace-san... I couldn't do anything to save you... I'm sorry."

Luffy started to crying out of control.

Miyuki: Snap into reality. "Luffy?" She walk to him. She hold his shoulder. "Luffy... Snap out of it. We must get out of here." (I will do whatever I can and get luffy out of this place. I will keep my promise ace-san.)

The others crying over ace death.

Miyuki: Look at ace smiling face. (He died with no regrets... That's why he smiled for the last time. Ace-san... I... Will not let anyone trample on your honor. I swear... I will kill the people who hurt you and everyone I love!)

Luffy: Suddenly stopped crying.

Miyuki: Eyes widen. "Luffy?!" Hold him. (He lost consciousness... His mind is in dangerous state... I must do something otherwise luffy will die! I don't want to lose anyone anymore!)

Ivankov: "Mugiwara-boy! Hime-chan!" (His mind has shattered... His life is in danger!)

Akainu charged at luffy full speed.

"It's akainu!"

Akainu: "Now... You're next! Mugiwara! Utahime!"

Akainu was about to land a hit but was stopped by a blue flame.

Miyuki: Eyes widen. "Marco... San..."

Marco: "I won't let you kill them!"

Jinbe: Go to them. "Miyuki-kun are you alright?!"

Miyuki: "Jinbe-san... I'm okay. I'll manage somehow. But luffy is not... Please Jinbe-san could you help lift him? I don't have any strength left to carry him."

Jinbe: Nod. "Luffy-kun! Luffy-kun! Pull yourself together!"

Akainu: "Get out of my way!" Pushed further.

Marco: "The fight... Isn't over yet! Get ace's brother and sister out of here, jinbe!"

Jinbe: Lift luffy. "Understood! Let's go miyuki-kun!"

Miyuki: "But what about..." She look at Marco.

Jinbe: "Don't worry about him. He's strong. He could handle akainu by himself. We need to run first."

Marco: Smiled. "Don't worry about me... Miyuki wasn't it?"

Miyuki: Flustered. "Umm... Yes I am."

Marco: "I think I understand why ace is so attached to you... No wonder he loves you so much. Ace is so lucky to have you as his little sister."

Miyuki: Guilt. "But I..."

Marco:  "Don't blame yourself... He chose how to live his life... He choose how he wanted to die. And I know he's glad that... The one he gives his heart to and the one he fell in love with... Is you miyuki. He choose you."

Miyuki: Bit her lip. "I'm not worthy of his love..."

Marco: "You might think so but ace doesn't think about you that way. You gave him another reason to continue living. That's what he always told me."
