Anyway, Let's continue on the story ~

The blonde man wiped the blood off his face as he spit on the man he just beat up, The price was small for the others. But for a man who lives on the street, It has a big price for them.

The referee stood beside Marco as he announced the winner, He held his arms with the blonde as sign of declaring who won. The crowd cheered, Marco isn't a newbie at the underground matching area after all

The manager at the corner was counting the money that he was about to give to the blonde man. There patiently waited Marco while inhaling smoke and his Devil fruit working to fix his injuries

" 150 beli " The manager said as he give the money to the blonde, Who instantly grabbed the money and left without saying anything.

After leaving the messy arena filled with people excited for action and bloodied things, Marco locked the back door exit of the underground arena. He sighed and leaned at the bricked wall while counting the coins in the bag. He inhale the smoke from his cigarette as he sunk in to a deep thought. Before leaving the place.

Ace grinned as he walk to the bar full of strong looking men. Hoping he'll find a man worthy to be his crewmate

To be a Spade pirate. His members are 20 above or lower he don't know

He slammed his hand on the counter trying to get their attention. His smirk grew wider as they all look at him, But only one of them didn't bother looking at him

Curiosity took over his mind for a while, The man looked like a regular bandit or some kind, But there is something about that blonde make him feel uneasy

Shaking his thoughts away he smirk and spoke: " I'm searching for someone who is worthy enough to be one of my crew, To be one of the Spade pirates " He shouted, All of them looked unimpressed. Then a man with a mohawk and piercing all over his face came with a sword and a unreadable expression

That is until he put the sword at Ace's neck. He smirk deviously " Spade pirate, huh?... Well if you are a Pirate captain then why did you announce in a bar that without even knowing if there's a bounty hunter there. I'm sure a Pirate captain will be much wiser than that. And If you're searching for a fight, kid you can just say it that easily no need to put up stupid excuses " He said

Ace's smirk fell down, Well he is right who the hell will announce something like that in a bar full of strangers?. The man let go from his grip and did a classic ' Come and get it ' Hand language.

Cliffhangy~!
