Chapter 64: Chapter 64 Battle With Ace!
Xu Cang looked at Ace, smiled, and said, "Definitely, definitely."
"But now, let's focus on the journey."
To be honest, Xu Cang also really wants to fight Ace. Ace, who possesses the Logia Burning Fruit, is undoubtedly the strongest person Xu Cang has seen besides Hawkeye.
However, in the previous fight with Eagle Eye, Xu Cang used the power of his own swordsmanship.
If there is a chance to fight Ace, Xu Cang will definitely choose the power of Devil Fruit to fight Ace.
While walking, I heard Usopp complaining.
"What's going on here? I thought the desert was flatter than here."
Upon seeing this, Vivi immediately explained: "Because this is an ancient desert with a long history, and some of the larger sand dunes are more than 300 meters tall."
"300 meters!? No wonder it feels like a mountain." Usopp finally understood.
"It feels so uncomfortable! It's so hot!" Luffy didn't care about the water consumption at all and drank a little recklessly.
"Luffy, you can only take one sip, just hold as much in your mouth." Vivi reminded.
As a result, Luffy, who had the power of rubber fruit, swallowed a lot in one mouthful.
Naturally, he was whipped by everyone.
In this way, everyone walked towards Yuba step by step. At night, they directly erected the tent, lit the campfire, and started barbecue.
"It looks delicious!" Luffy looked at the meat and naturally his mouth watered.
"Don't touch him!" Sanji forbade him.
"What does it matter? How stingy!"
Everyone was shivering and hiding next to the campfire to keep warm. Nami couldn't help but ask: "What's going on? It's so hot today!"
Vivi explained: "In this desert without shade, it will be unbearably hot during the day, but at night it will drop below zero and it will be extremely cold. There are many unexpected dangers in the desert."
Everyone except Chopper was very cold.
Of course, Ace himself is a user with the ability of the Burning Fruit, so he is naturally not afraid of the cold. Xu Cang is also considered to have relatively good endurance. As a user with the ability of the Devil Fruit, he is naturally able to overcome the harsh environment.
At this time, Luffy started to get into trouble with his friends again.
Seeing this, Vivi also walked over to Ace and Xu Cang and started talking.
"Luffy doesn't look like a captain at all. Aren't captains of pirate ships generally respected by the crew? It was the same during the day, but he just drank more water and it became like that. But, but, let's talk again After getting along with them for a long time, I gradually understood."
"That's what Luffy does." Ace said.
"It hasn't changed at all from when I was a kid. Despite his moral character, there are always people around him. My brother is a guy with incredible charm."
"What? It turns out you already knew it." Vivi said with a smile.
"Of course, after all, I have known him for a long time." Ace smiled lightly and said, "But thank you, you are worried about whether I care, right?"
"Yeah, but I was overthinking it." Vivi didn't expect Ace to know Luffy so well.
Just like that, everyone fell asleep.
Only Xu Cang did not fall asleep. Instead, he sat on a high rock not far away, as if waiting for something.
But after a while, a person had already jumped up.
"Coming?" Xu Cang asked calmly.
"Yeah, I can probably guess what you want to do." The person who spoke was naturally Luffy's brother Ace.
"As expected of Ace, Luffy's brother, and the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates." Xu Cang's words were considered a compliment.
Xu Cang then turned around and looked at Ace.
It turns out that during this day, Ace hinted to Xu Cang countless times that tonight, when everyone is free, they can learn from each other.
Masters in the pirate world often compete with each other to improve their own strength, especially Ace, who is also extremely interested in Xu Cang's Devil Fruit.
"How was it?" Ace asked.
Ace's meaning is quite straightforward, that is, do you want to discuss things together.
"Of course, otherwise, I wouldn't be here at all."
"This place is some distance away from them, so it won't disturb them. Let me see how strong you are, Ace." After Xu Cang finished speaking, his eyes became serious.
This time the opponent is not an ordinary pirate, but the great pirate, Ace, in other words, ONE PIECE Gol D. Roger's biological son and Whitebeard's godson.
"Are you ready? Let's start!" After Ace finished speaking, his hands burned with huge flames. To be on the safe side, Ace did not use 100% of his attacks, but made tentative attacks in case something unexpected happened. , can still be redeemed.
Xu Cang said disapprovingly: "Ace, don't hold back, I can block your attack."
Immediately afterwards, Xu Cang also moved, activating the devil fruit ability in his body, and then a demonic shadow immediately emerged from behind Xu Cang.
The first time he saw this magical ability, even Ace was slightly stunned. For some reason, he felt a very scary feeling from Xu Cang.
"In that case! Fire fist!" Seeing that Xu Cang was not joking, Ace no longer held back. As soon as he fired the fire fist, the huge flames rushed towards Xu Cang.
As for Xu Cang, the demon on his body directly spread its demon wings, and Xu Cang could withstand even the hottest flames.
Seeing that he could withstand his full blow with just a pair of wings, Fire Fist Ace was a little uneasy at this time.
"Impossible! This is too exaggerated!"
"My attack was ineffective!?" Seeing that the long-range attack had no effect, Ace quickly rushed to Xu Cang's side and started punching and kicking him.
However, as Xu Cang said before, the Devil Fruit on his body has the characteristics of all three systems, so it is directly elemental.
Ace's hand actually penetrated Xu Cang's body directly, as if Xu Cang had used Mangekyō's Kamui to make himself insubstantial.
"Elementalization?! Logia!?"
"Yes, what I said before was not a joke!" After Xu Cang finished speaking, he also punched out. At this time, Xu Cang's hand also passed through Ace's body.
Apparently, Ace's Logia ability also kept him from harm.
"Sure enough, it is difficult to tell the outcome between Logia." Ace finally stopped and did not fight Xu Cang further.
When Xu Cang saw this, although he didn't feel like fighting, it was hard to say anything.
In Logia's battle, he himself is not domineering. Both of them are elementalized. Just like Smoker and Ace, there is no way to tell the winner.
"That's it. If the fight continues, it will be difficult to determine the winner. Let's wait until you have mastered the domineering force!"
"You are very strong. Do you really not want to consider joining the Whitebeard Pirates? With your strength, I think you should be able to become the captain of a team." Ace invited Xu Cang again.
Xu Cang smiled and said: "Forget it, I still want to help Luffy become ONE PIECE."
