Chapter 765 His Last Words.
Chapter 765 His Last Words.
_________________
Above the sky of Baterilla, clouds had been gathering for some time and it began to rain.
It was as if the sky was reacting to the emotions of the couple in the wooden house amidst the trees.
Sadness enveloped the place at that moment.
The couple had completely stopped talking, their entire focus was on Ace in the manga.
Every word he uttered resonated deeply in their hearts.
Their emotions mostly oscillated between sadness and profound sorrow.

Chapter's Events:—————————
"I'm sorry… Luffy…" Ace began his final words by apologizing to Luffy.
Holding him, Luffy touched the bloody hole on Ace's back, his hand filled with his brother's blood.
"Ace!!! Hurry, we've got to get you help…" Luffy said in a trembling voice.
"Sorry, I couldn't let you save me… Haa… I'm sorry…" Ace said softly, already feeling his life slipping away.
"What the hell are you talking about!!?"
"Somebody help him!!! Please save Ace!!!" Luffy began to scream, searching for someone to help.
"Doctor, Hurry!! Please treat him!!!"
"Right!!"
The nearest pirate looked for a pirate doctor, who rushed over with his equipment.
"It's too late!!! Haa… I can tell that my life is coming to an end… Haa…"
"He burned up my insides… zeeh… I'm done for… so…" Ace said.
"Ace…" Seeing the hole in his body, the doctor's face darkened and he instinctively stepped back.
"Listen, Luffy…" Ace continued to speak as long as he could.
"What are you talking about? Ace, are you gonna die?" Luffy couldn't even bear the thought of such a possibility.
"You promised!!! Haa… You promised you wouldn't die!!!"
"Isn't that what you said, Ace!!? Uuh…"
...

"Promises can be broken, boy…"
Rob inhaled the smoke from his cigarette at that moment and exhaled calmly.
"He promised you he wouldn't die… Is that promise even believable in the first place? Especially when it comes from the mouth of a child… to another child…"
The rain and wind on Baterilla Island caused plant leaves and cornfields to fly, but it didn't affect Rob, not even extinguishing his cigarette.
"It's like I'm seeing this scene for the first time…"
Rob smiled sadly as he looked at the volume he had drawn himself.
He had the same feeling when he first saw it in the manga on Earth, at that time he cried like the child he used to be.
"I wonder how you all are experiencing this moment… people of the Seas World? When you realized that everyone can die…"
Rob exhaled more smoke from his cigarette and turned his gaze to the place he had left some time ago.
The house of the couple, Rouge and Roger.
"To experience your son's death before he's even born… what a cruel irony… Well, it's interesting, though deeply saddening."
"I hope you understand the magnitude and consequences of what your counterpart did, Roger, for it's clear you don't really understand… especially the impact it had on your lineage."
…
The rain continued to fall as if the sky was responding to the tears of the readers at that moment.
In the Domain of the Gods at Marigoa, the scene was truly astonishing.
"Ahhhh! What's happening? Is Ace dying!!!?"
"No no no! Isn't he a Logia fire user? How can he die like this!? It was just one blow from Admiral Akainu…!!"
"This blood… this hole… it looks like he's really going to die… Oh my God!"
"What have you done, Admiral!!"
"I was so happy that Ace escaped just a moment ago, I went to the bathroom and came back to find Ace dying…? What happened?"
"Damn it! My tears won't stop!"
"My snot is overflowing too…"
"Ahhh! Damn you, evil admiral!!!"
The celestial dragons were in chaos at this moment, their wailing and crying much to the disdain of the holy knights.
"Don't let these insects summon Admiral Sakazuki here."
Saint Garling ordered in a deep voice.
"Understood, Your Majesty." The holy knight who received the order nodded, stood up, and left.
Saint Garling shook his head and sighed, ignoring the stir of the celestial dragons.
"So, the execution was carried out perfectly in the end? Amazing, that admiral deserves praise."
…
"Are these your final words? Ace… my grandson…"
In the Kingdom of Sorbet, Garp was wiping away tears of sorrow as the scene deeply affected him.
He had never expected or wanted to see one of his grandchildren die in such a gruesome manner.
When Ace began to say his final words to Luffy, Garp felt a piercing pain in his heart.
•———•———•———•———•
"Yeah… just like with Sabo. If I didn't have an annoying little brother like you… I would never have thought… To live…" Saying that Ace began to remember what people used to say about Roger's son.
…
(If Gold Roger had a kid? Kill him!!!)
…
"Everybody would say that… I can't blame them…" Ace said.
…
(How about we count how many people in the world hate Roger? And stab him with that number of needles?)
…
(Burn him at the stake!! Everyone in the world would love to see that!!)
(You know what we'd say!? 'Serves you right!' Gyahahahaha!)
…
(I hope these are his last words: 'I'm so sorry that a piece of trash like me was born.')
(Well, it's not like he exists…)
…
(Ace!!! Did you cause trouble in the town again!!?)
(Shut up!! If I was strong enough, I would have killed them all!!)
(What!!?)
…
After recalling for a moment, Ace remembered something important:
"Oh yeah… when you see Dadan again… Tell her thanks…"
"Now that I'm about to die… I even kinda miss her…"
•———•———•———•———•
The lively place in Amazon Lily, where the strongest and most formidable warrior women lived, turned into a scene resembling a nursery as everyone cried.
The Amazon women were extremely emotional while reading Ace's final words, seeing parts of his past and how he suffered greatly in his childhood.
"Although he wasn't guilty of what his father did…"
"He didn't even have a choice to be born…"
Store Goddess Dadan held her hand over her mouth, trying to suppress the tears that were about to spill… but it was futile.
The more she read, the more the rain continued to fall.
When she reached the words where Ace mentioned the name 'Dadan,' she felt a tremor in her heart and then, Boom, like an explosion shaking the corners of her mind, she had a strange and mysterious thought pounding in her head.
"The Dadan Ace is talking about… is me?"
As soon as this thought appeared in her mind, the tears continued to wet her cheeks, and her beautiful eyes turned red.
The other store goddesses didn't notice her condition, as they were in a similar state.
