AWB Chapter 501: Refusal and Promise
Chapter 501: Refusal and Promise
"What is the price?"
Roger's voice was so hoarse it sounded like he'd swallowed sandpaper.
He suddenly leaned forward.
"My life? My soul? Or something else?"
The dignity of the Pirate King has long been thrown into ruins.
Now he's even willing to risk his life.
"Just so Rouge can see Ace once."
"Just take a look."
"I'll give you anything."
Name your price.
The most powerful monsters in the ocean stood on either side of the hospital bed.
Where is the white-bearded figure, like an iron tower?
He leaned on the Murakumokiri with both hands.
His gaze was dark and heavy.
Shanks lurked in the shadows.
Red hair covered most of her forehead.
The dragon embraces with both arms.
His face was extremely tense.
No one interrupted.
The ward was filled with Roger's heavy breathing.
The medical equipment ticked away.
It pounded against my eardrums, one blow after another.
Chen Ye stood in front of the hospital bed.
Looking down at Roger from his vantage point.
His gaze was icy cold.
There was no sympathy.
No mercy.
Roger's pleas bounced off the wall.
Repressed.
feel oppressed.
A full five seconds passed.
Chen Ye finally spoke.
"I cannot agree to that."
The tone was as casual as if they were discussing what to eat for dinner.
But it felt like five steel knives piercing Roger's heart.
He was lucky enough to be chopped up on the spot.
Roger's already blood-loss-induced face turned deathly pale.
The raging fire in his eyes was extinguished by cold water.
His broad shoulders slumped down.
The strength in his bones was completely drained.
Her hands gripped the white sheets tightly.
Why?
Roger kept his head down.
The voice was so faint it sounded like a dream.
"Why can't I even take a look?"
The gambler who lost everything was stripped naked.
All their chances of turning the tide are gone.
This was the only way he could think of to atone for his sins.
Chen Ye kicked the road so hard it collapsed.
Roger was trembling all over.
Despair overwhelmed me.
Shanks' chest heaved.
He subconsciously gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist.
The scabbard emitted a very faint friction sound.
His white beard and furrowed brows formed a deep frown.
The fingers gripping the knife tightened suddenly.
They know Roger too well.
This man is not afraid of death.
I'm afraid of being in debt.
Rouge is a debt of life he can never repay.
Chen Ye completely ignored Roger's breakdown.
His gaze passed over the hospital bed.
He coldly swept his gaze over the few people in the room.
The time is right.
If they keep pushing him, Roger will be finished.
What he needs is a sharp knife.
It's not a rotten corpse.
Chen Ye raised his chin slightly.
The voice suddenly rose in pitch.
It exploded in the medical room.
"If a suitable opportunity arises in the future."
"Perhaps it really will allow Ace and Rouge to be reunited."
There was a thunder on the ground.
The deathly silence in the ward was shattered.
Roger suddenly looked up.
The movement was too violent.
The stitched-up skin on his chest instantly tore open.
Blood immediately stained large areas of the bandages red.
He felt no pain.
He gripped the metal bed frame tightly with both hands.
His entire upper body was sticking out.
A fire reignited in his eyes.
Even crazier than before.
"What did you say?"
Roger's voice trembled violently.
"Say it again."
Is it true?
"Can you really do it?"
He stared intently at Chen Ye.
They didn't dare to miss a single detail.
I fear this is just a consolation.
I'm afraid this is a joke.
He didn't even dare to breathe.
We're just waiting for the verdict.
Chen Ye stared at him coldly.
His face twitched slightly.
He didn't retreat even half a step.
He stubbornly endured Roger's overwhelming pressure.
"When have I, Chen Ye, ever uttered empty words?"
The rhetorical question landed with a resounding thud.
It exudes an undeniable confidence.
They forcefully suppressed Roger's madness.
Roger's violently heaving chest slowed down.
He stared into Chen Ye's eyes.
It was all bottomless black inside.
He believed it.
You can only believe it.
You must believe it.
This promise became the only lifeline in the darkness.
"When?"
Roger pressed for more information.
The fingers almost deformed the metal edge of the bed.
How long do I have to wait?
"What do you need me to do?"
He can't wait.
As long as we can let that mother and child meet.
Now, let him go and cleave the Red Earth into pieces, he'll do it.
"Shut up."
Chen Ye interrupted him directly.
His voice was deep and cold, like iron.
Roger was stunned.
Chen Ye stepped forward.
Approaching the hospital bed.
His gaze swept over her like a knife.
"The length of time is not up to me."
"It depends on when we can bring Im down from his pedestal."
Im.
These two words were uttered.
The temperature in the ward plummeted.
A massive hammer blow struck.
The lingering atmosphere of intimate relations was shattered on the spot.
Everyone's minds were forcibly pulled back to reality.
Chen Ye looked around at everyone.
His words were enunciated clearly and precisely.
"Why do you think Rouge died?"
Why did Ace suffer so much?
"It's because the World Government is hunting us down."
"It's because a monster who thinks he's a god sits on some empty throne."
He looked directly into Roger's eyes.
"You owe Rouge a life."
"You owe Ace his childhood."
Ultimately, it's caused by the distorted rules of this world.
"You want compensation?"
"You want them to be reunited, mother and child?"
"Can."
"But before that, you have to turn this shitty world upside down."
"You have to cut Im's head off."
His words were sharp and incisive.
Roger's guilt was forcibly twisted into hatred.
The father's atonement was elevated to a war to overthrow the old era.
The atmosphere in the ward completely changed.
The desolation and despair were swept into the trash heap.
All that remained was a chilling atmosphere.
The white-bearded man's eyes gleamed with a fierce light.
He gripped the handle of the Murakumo-giri knife heavily with his large hand.
The blade emitted a low hum.
He's long disliked the world government.
Today, Chen Ye made things clear.
It suits his taste perfectly.
Long's face was grim.
He nodded solemnly.
The ultimate goal of the Revolutionary Army is to overthrow the Celestial Dragons.
Chen Ye's words ignited a fire in his heart.
Shanks slowly loosened his grip on the sword hilt.
He took a deep look at the old captain.
he knows.
Which pirate king roams the seas without fear?
They're coming back again.
Roger didn't say anything.
Slowly loosen your grip on the edge of the bed.
I leaned back against the pillow.
The blood was still flowing from his chest.
The confusion in her eyes had been completely wiped away.
All that remained was pure killing intent.
He found a new goal.
For Rouge.
For Ace.
He has to survive.
Go and tear the sky apart.
Chen Ye observed the reactions of these people.
He snorted coldly in his heart.
An unruly beast.
They were once again put on the reins to overthrow Im.
The tragedy of the past is behind us.
Now only the final battle remains.
Chen Ye turned around.
With his back to Roger.
He raised his right hand and waved it casually.
"Everyone, get out."
Clearance order.
Undeniable.
The white-bearded man's face darkened.
"Kid, what other shameful things are you hiding?"
Chen Ye did not turn around.
"What follows is for him to hear alone."
His voice carried an absolute sense of power and authority.
This is a secret.
Even the white-bearded man isn't qualified to listen.
The air in the ward tightened again.
His gaze swept back and forth between Chen Ye and Roger.
Even the monsters at the top of the world are not qualified to listen.
Just how terrifying is this secret?
But no one dared to break Chenye's rules.
"Why should I go out?"
He grinned.
Just as he was about to start cursing.
Two figures pressed against it, one on the left and one on the right.
The dragon didn't waste any words. It took a step forward and gripped Rocks' left arm tightly.
Shanks silently stepped out of the shadows. With only his left hand remaining, he swiftly reached out and grabbed Rocks' right arm.
The two moved in perfect unison.
One on the left, one on the right. A powerful force erupted.
"Hey! What are you two kids doing?"
Dragon and Shanks didn't give them a chance at all.
The two men struggled to hold Lox up, dragging and pulling him along.
"Let me go! You red-haired brat, how dare you lay a hand on this old man!"
They forcibly dragged the cursing Rocks out of the ward.
Whitebeard snorted coldly.
He picked up Cong Yunqie and turned to walk towards the door.
Zefa followed closely behind.
Aokiji took one last look at Roger.
He quietly withdrew.
The heavy metal door closed slowly.
Click.
Locked.
Only Chenye and Roger remained in the medical room.
It was so quiet that the only sound was the operation of the instruments.
Chen Ye turned around.
She stared intently at the man on the hospital bed.
