I just wanted to go to the counter to pay the room bill, and Ace said, "Oh yeah, right, there's something else I have to say: I don't have any cash." I'm frozen solid. You're not serious, I think, and hit my hand on the forehead. The man behind the bar was already looking suspiciously at me. "I'll give you good advice: RUN!" laughing at the crazy flame in my mind. "Eat-n-Dasher" I shouted in my mind as I took my foot in my hand and ran, the angry owner in my heel. "So you actually paid the bill, I can't help it" Ace replied with a half laugh. As I held onto it, I just thought, "Can you beat yourself up, we share one body", and the answer came to my mind. "Why do I feel that you are having an inappropriate amount of fun with this situation?" I asked in my heart. "Right turn" hummed the amused fire fist. I turned around and came to the end of the village into the forest. The striker was moored in a bay at the other end of the forest.
Meanwhile I was a little deeper in the forest and the angry owner had let us go. Slightly panting I asked loudly into the forest "Why do you go to the dorm, if you don't have the money to pay the bills?!" "Pirate" came the answer. "I'm sorry" is my response to that. "I'm sure Shanks always pays his bills, he doesn't risk a no-drink ban." "It's interesting that you know the people here" Ace said. "Are you trying to distract me?" I asked with gasps. "Little bit. Working?"said Ase. "A little bit" I said, a little upset. What are we talking about again? Ace laughed to death again in my mind. What did he eat for breakfast? Such a good vibe in the morning should be punished, not less than three months in prison. Ace must have thought my mind was funny, because he never stopped laughing.
Another question: Why can I move almost painlessly, yesterday I almost died of pain? I asked the fire in my mind. "And what's so special about that? I ate well and had enough time to sleep" he said annoyedly. What kind of circulation did he have, I asked myself and noticed that this made the fire fist even more annoyed. Speaking of food, I could feel my stomach start to rumble. Once again I had nothing to eat and drink and this time I clearly blamed Ace for cheating on his eating and running! "In a striker is a stock" comes the answer. "When and especially WHERE?" my irritated question arises "It's been all the time, in front there is a cover and a cavity for supplies"heard his natural answer. I sighed and walked towards the Striker, hoping it was the right path and Ace would show me if I went the wrong way.
I was so lost in thought that I became careless. It came as it should: "Be careful" was what Ace used to shout before I went down the hill. I have stepped too close to the edge and broken under my foot. I rolled faster and faster around myself down the slope and couldn't get a grip anymore. Suddenly I felt there was no earth beneath me and I stopped revolving around myself. Disadvantage: I fell!
I could still see myself falling into the sea and trying desperately to grab something. Ace kept screaming in my mind as had happened to me at sea. I dived into the water and thought: that's it! The devil fruit user cannot swim. As I sank deeper into the water, I instinctively tried to move to the surface and guess what? It worked! I swam to the surface as fast as I could while it became very quiet in my head. On the surface I took a deep breath. With a quiet swim I swam towards the beach even though my heart was pounding.
Maybe. but I interrupted that thought. "What possible? You obviously don't have my demonic powers even though I had them yesterday while you were sleeping" Ace said. "I have a hunch" I murmured. "That one" Ace urged. "When I watch anime, I have a hunch that demonic forces are not tied to the body, but to the soul or even the spirit." You retaliated. "And you came up with this because ..."pushed the fist of fire further. "'Because a certain devil fruit was eaten by a member of your brother's crew. Yomi Yomi no Mi's. This allows the owner to return to the body after death. This would not be possible if the devil fruit left the body after death. That's why I think that demonic-power only becomes a fruit again when the spirit of its owner leaves this world." I answered while thinking.
"And it's important to us now" asked Ace again. "You only remind me of a four-year-old," I replied amusedly. "Lucia" Ace growled. "It's okay. To get back to our situation. I don't eat devil fruit so I'm not cursed by the sea nor do I have power, which means as long as I'm in control I'm not a devil fruit user because his power is tied to your soul. But if you're in control, the body becomes a devil fruit user again." I explained my theory to Ace. "In fact, it sounds logical so far" Ace's voice sounded calm. We have to keep going, I think, and get up. Ace hummed in agreement. "How do we get to your crew? With your striker, I can only use the screen?" I asked Ace"We'll think of something. Lie on the striker and take a nap, then I'll take control and we'll go forward." It might even work if I am tired. "Then we wait for the narcolepsy attack." is the return of the gunman. Oh, there's still such a thing, I think. Trembling in your mind.
Finally you arrive at the sticker and I remove the rope before I lift myself up and release the screen. The wind grabs the screen and drives you off the island. Now I notice a small fold on the front. When I opened it I found two bottles of drinking water and a bag of supplies. I took some food and a bottle and leaned back. As I ate breakfast, the island on my back shrank until it disappeared completely. All around me was water, calm waves and a warm sunburn on my face. For the first time in a very long time I did not know how the next day was or where my path would take me. I don't know where my journey will end. And amazingly, this loss of control filled me with a strange calm. I started to fall asleep while in my head a soft laugh sounded
