Chapter 73: The introverted Ace and Sabo were finally discovered

"Ace, what reward do you want this time?"

Seeing Ace coming to him, Kavi knew that he was here to ask for a reward.

Ace looked hesitant, not knowing how to start. He kept trying to clarify the doubts in his heart, but Grandpa Garp told him not to tell anyone about his affairs, otherwise it would bring him danger.

He didn't know whether telling Mr. Kavi would bring danger, nor did he know whether Mr. Kavi could help him solve his doubts.

His intuition told him that asking old man Kavi would definitely help him to clear up the doubts in his heart, so he came.

After much hesitation, Ace decided to speak out. After spending some time with him, he got to know Mr. Kavi's character.

The training requirements for them were very strict, but other than that, Mr. Kavi got along very well with them.

As long as they complete the corresponding training tasks, it can be said that Kavi basically won't care about them.

Ace believed that there would be no danger in telling old man Kavi about this.

With a determined look, he immediately said, "Master Kavi, do you know? My full name is Portgas D. Ace."

Then Aiston paused and continued:

"I also have another name, Gol D. Ace! But Grandpa Garp told me not to reveal this name, otherwise I might be in danger. Can you tell me the reason?"

He stared at Kavi, wanting to get an answer, why did he have two names, why couldn't he be called Gol D. Ace?

Kavi was very calm. When he saw Ace's hesitant expression, he guessed something. He would ask himself this question sooner or later.

He patted Ace's head and said slowly:

"It's simple, because the name Gol D scares many people. They are afraid that another person of that level will appear."

"If you are exposed, they will capture you and kill you."

Ace was still confused, "Why would anyone be afraid of the last name Gol D? Isn't it just an ordinary name? Why would someone want to kill me?"

Kavi raised his fist and gestured to Ace.

"Hahaha, why are you asking so many questions? Just remember, the bigger your fist, the fewer questions you will have! If you want to know more, just become stronger!"

Ace is too weak now, and knowing too much will only add to his troubles.

In the world of pirates, strength is everything!

Whoever has the bigger fist lives a comfortable, free and fulfilling life.

Without strength, the more you know, the more tiring your life will be.

"I see!"

Ace nodded. Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, he understood why Grandpa Garp didn't allow him to reveal his other name.

The reason is that he is too weak now and cannot grasp it. After he becomes stronger, he will know everything.

The desire to become stronger was strengthened again, and Kavi's goal was achieved.

Looking at Ace's departing back, Kavi fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking.

At night, Sabo quietly got up to exercise. Last week's reward was won by Ace, so it was his turn this week.

Ace heard the noise and got up as well. He wanted to practice extra, an extra hour every night.

He wants to become stronger.

"Ace, why are you up too? Isn't it your turn next week?" Sabo looked at Ace in confusion.

"Sabo, I have to become stronger. Don't worry, I won't compete with you for this week's reward."

Ace simply wanted to train a little longer. He didn't care whether there was a reward or not. He just wanted to become stronger.

Sabo looked at Ace seriously. He didn't know why Ace wanted to become stronger, but as the eldest brother, he would support him unconditionally.

He reached out and patted Ace's shoulder, saying firmly, "Ace, if you encounter any difficulties, remember to tell me, and I will definitely help you."

Ace nodded, he understood.

Although the three brothers like to bicker with each other, if someone encounters difficulties, the other two will definitely stand up without hesitation.

The two smiled at each other. There was no need for much words between brothers. They began their daily night training without waking up Luffy. It was enough to leave their younger brother to them to protect.

Luffy: ...

In this way, Ace and Sabo monopolized the weekly rewards for a month, and finally decided to let Luffy take the reward for the next week.

Luffy was very happy to get the reward. He found Kavi and asked him to prepare a table full of barbecue.

Luffy ate to his heart's content. He used the reward he had finally obtained to exchange for a barbecue meal with Kavi.

Luffy, who hadn't eaten barbecue for a long time, wolfed down all the barbecue and took a small piece back for Ace and Sabo, which was considered a bit conscientious.

The two brothers were very touched and decided to let Luffy get a reward every two months.

At night, Ace and Sabo continued to quietly get up and exercise.

If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. If you carry Luffy on your back every day, you will be discovered one day.

Just after the two of them went out, Luffy was awakened by a mysterious force because he ate too much.

He got up and rubbed his eyes, "Huh? Where are Ace and Sabo?"

Luffy was about to get up to go to the bathroom when he discovered that his two brothers were not around.

I was very confused. “Did they go to the bathroom too? They didn’t even bother to call me.”

Luffy pushed the door open with a yawn, walked out, and found a random place to take care of himself.

The night is very quiet and every tiny sound will be amplified.

"Huchi! Huchi!"

"another one!"

Luffy heard a subtle sound in his ears and he quickly stopped what he was doing and held his breath.

He heard a familiar voice, "Is that Ace and Sabo?"

He quietly approached the place where the sound came from, and soon, Luffy saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.

Ace and Sabo were doing push-ups on the ground with a big rock on their backs. The sweat on their bodies showed that they had already started training.

Luffy stayed where he was, anger rising in his heart. At this moment, he finally understood why he had received rewards so rarely and why he was always the weakest one.

He was so angry that he forgot why he got up.

He stood up and shouted, "Ace! Sabo! You are so cunning!"

Luffy wanted to curse, but he was too young to even think of the words to curse.

I could only express my dissatisfaction by stomping my feet wildly on the spot.

Ace and Sabo looked a little embarrassed when they were discovered by Luffy, but they recovered quickly.

The two of them said with serious expressions and sincere tones:

"Luffy! Do you really think we don't want to call you? We, as your brothers, just don't want you to work so hard. You see, you are still so young and need enough sleep. How can we bear to let you get up in the middle of the night to exercise!"

Luffy was stunned when he heard this, as if he was frightened by the sincerity of his two brothers.

There was a question in his tone, "Really?"

Why does he feel something is wrong?

Young Luffy was skeptical. Did his two older brothers really care about him?
