Dadan was in tears, Ace and Luffy were crying too, some of the bandits behind him were crying too, but they were dead for the time being.
"It would have been better if they had just admitted defeat earlier so that these bandits wouldn't have to die. Really!" Jiang Bo complained.
"Sometimes, problems can't be solved by being strong. When your strength isn't enough to suppress the enemy, just stay calm and wait until you have the strength to fight back. This is for your own good, and for the good of others!"
"Remember?" Jiang Bo leaned forward, looking like he deserved a beating.
"Ace gritted his teeth and looked at Jiang Bo without saying a word!"
"So you didn't remember it. That's easy!" A drop of water appeared in Jiang Bo's hand and shot onto the ground next to Dadan's body. Dadan was blown away by the shock wave.
"Ouch, I missed. Try again!" Jiang Bo smiled evilly!
"Remember, I remember! Don't attack again, stop!" Seeing that Jiang Bo was about to attack, Ace was scared and shouted.
"Remember what?"
"If you don't have enough strength, just stay quiet and wait until you are strong enough to fight back!" Ace repeated.
Jiang Bo was satisfied, then frowned. "Then why are you looking at me with such angry eyes? Do you want me to kill you now, leaving you no chance for revenge?"
Ace quickly closed his eyes: "I didn't!"
"Well, it seems that you really understand!" Jiang Bo clapped his hands. He didn't want to do this, but in the original work, Ace's character harmed so many people. He refused to retreat in the fire and almost killed Dadan. He fought against Whitebeard without knowing his life or death and almost lost all the crew members.
Facing Teach, he was unwilling to admit defeat and acted like a superior captain. In the end, he was unwilling to retreat and was captured, making Teach the topic of conversation among the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Whitebeard's refusal to retreat from the Battle of Marineford led to his death in vain. Countless pirates in Whitebeard's pirate group died in vain to save him. Those people should not have died in the first place, and in the end they also sacrificed themselves, and Luffy was in critical condition.
Ace has a very strong character. If Jiang Bo doesn't teach him a profound lesson now, who knows how many people he will hurt in the future.
"Alright everyone, we're done!"
As soon as Jiang Bo finished speaking, a group of bandits lying on the ground pretending to be dead suddenly stood up one by one. What they had just done was too painful, but fortunately they heard Ace's true words. Ace still cared about them in his heart, and they were inexplicably touched!
"You guys?" Esmond was stunned!
Luffy happily hugged a bandit, "So you're not dead! That's great!"
"Ace, even though all this is acting, this is the real world! Some things are even more cruel than what Jiang Bo acted out!" Dadan rubbed his old waist, sat up and looked at Ace.
"You, you are a bunch of bastards, you actually lied to me!" Ace suddenly felt that he had been deceived by the whole world, and ran away without looking back.
"Ace!" Luffy chased after him!
Jiang Bo smiled at Dadan: "It's okay, don't worry, I'll go after him!"
Ace ran down the mountain in a hurry, tears streaming down his face. He stood under a big tree and pounded the trunk frantically with his fists.
The person he trusted the most actually lied to him!!! He was embarrassed!!!
Now he couldn't understand Dadan's intentions at all. He only knew that he had been deceived. Although it was memorable, it was not what he wanted to do. He was forced to do it by that bastard named Jiang Bo.
But he had no idea that a man was following closely above him.
While Ace was tired, Jiang Bo sat on the tree trunk he had hit and asked from a distance, "Do you still want what happened last night to happen again? Do you still want Dadan to face the danger of death because of you?"
"Who are you? Why do you meddle in other people's business? I didn't let her stay!" Ace shouted.
"If she hadn't kept you here, you'd be dead now!" Jiang Bo slapped him hard. "She just didn't want you to die, did you know that? She would rather exchange her own life for yours. If I hadn't helped you last night, Dadan would have been burned to death!"
Ace couldn't believe that this man was actually his savior, but he was still stubborn: "Nonsense, that damn old woman only wanted me to die sooner, how could she want me to live!"
"You are so stubborn!" Jiang Bo was very disappointed with his friend. He was so stubborn, but it was easy to deal with!
Ten minutes later, Ace lay powerless on the ground, his body covered in bruises. "Now stop twisting! Even though you say that, you know there are many people in this world who don't want you to die!"
"Your brothers Luffy and Sabo risked their lives to save your Dadan family, and your grandfather Garp, they all hope that you are alive and well!"
"Let me ask you, what would you have done if Luffy had died last night!"
"I will live a life worse than death!" Ace looked at Jiang Bo with gritted teeth!
"Then, if you die! The ones who will suffer this pain worse than death will be your brothers Luffy and Sabo!" Jiang Bo said, and Ace's pupils shrank.
"So, when facing the enemy, remember that no matter what, the most important thing is your own life and the lives of your companions, not like this morning when all your fellow bandits died because of your persistence!"
Ace said nothing, thinking about what Jiang Bo said.
Ace asked, "What does all this have to do with you? Why are you helping me?" Because he had not yet learned etiquette from Makino, Ace now could not say thank you at all, and could only say offensive words.
"Me! Remember Shanks that Luffy told you about? Shanks bet the future of the ocean on Luffy, and I'm pretty much the same. I'm very optimistic about you, so I want you to live!" Jiang Bo talked freely.
