Hello everyone, here is another one shot, this is a missing scene
This is some bonding between Ace and Namur, since Ace needs to bond with everyone
I don't have an exactly time this is happening, but it might fit around chapter 16 or 17
This was a request from Yaoifan124 and Little sister sally
Hope you enjoy
Read and relax
Ace stood at the front of the ship, it was early, barely past 6 in the morning and he wanted to enjoy the sunrise since he was already awake. As the sun rose in the horizon, Ace enjoyed the small gusts off winds that came now and then, it was relaxing and there weren't many put on deck this early. To have a crew that was almost in the 400 number, even though the size of the ship, it was amazing on how few that were up this early. There had to be some early birds, but it seemed to be barely anyone.
As the sun was halfway over the horizon, someone came and stood beside Ace, also leaning on the railing.
When Ace looked over, he saw it was Namur. Ace turned back to the railing. ¨You're up early, Namur.¨ The fishman nodded. ¨I like to be up early. It's calm and nothing beats the sunrise in the morning.¨ Ace gave a nod. ¨I agree. But I must say, there aren't a lot of people who are up early. I thought there would be more than a handful of people.¨ Namur gave a small laugh, nodding. ¨One would think that. But since it's so calm, it makes it a bit better. Not that I don't enjoy everyone, but calmness is good too.¨
Ace gave a nod, he liked calmness too. He was more used to that than a lot of people. He needed to get more used to being around everyone. The fact the mornings and nights were calm was something that made things easier. As the sun was almost above the horizon, Namur sent him a look. ¨Your brothers seemed to not mind fishpeople, probably not merpeople too.¨
Ace gave a small chuckle. ¨Luffy have always been including, he's a person who gives everyone a chance. Sabo too, but not as much. But I have also told them to give everyone a chance. Don't judge based on appearance, but actions.¨ Namur nodded, sending him a look again. ¨Why aren't you bothered by the fact I'm a fishman? Not that it isn't nice, it's just not something that people usually accept.¨
Ace raised an eyebrow as he looked at the fishman, ¨You do realise I could as you the exact same thing.¨
Namur seemed confused for a second, making Ace give a small chuckle. ¨All you've done is to look different from other people, nothing a person with normal human sense can look past. Judging people based on race or differences from them is just wrong.¨ Ace turned to the view, looking at the distance. ¨But people actually have a reason to be bothered by my presence. I have done a lot of horrible things. All you've done is to have blue skin and gills.¨ Ace could see Namur getting an understanding look in his peripheral vision. ¨You're used to it? The names and stares.¨
Ace nodded, ¨I'm more used to that, than people actually accepting I'm an assassin. Especially after they found out who I am.¨ Namur nodded, turning to look at the view himself. ¨I know what you mean. It's weird one actually get as used to it as one does.¨ Ace gave a nod, sending a look at Namur. ¨One might get used to it, but it doesn't get any easier.¨ Namur gave a small sigh, ¨It's terrible that the world is like that. I'm glad I met Pops, he's always going to be there. He don't care about who you are, but what you've done.¨ Ace nodded, having a small smile. The captain was like that, he judged based on actions and included everyone if you were a good person.
Namur sent him a look, ¨Are there merpeople or fishpeople that are assassins?¨ Ace gave a small laugh, sending a smile. ¨There are. There even is a few who are really high up. The fact they can breath underwater and also be on land is an extremely useful thing in some situations. It's just unfortunate there aren't more. Some of the best people I've met are merfolk or fishpeople.¨ Namur gave a smile. ¨It's always nice to meet people who don't care, or at least don't mind it.¨ Ace nodded. ¨It is.¨
Ace had a smile as the sun rose higher on the sky, seeing Namur also having a smile. They could understand each other, both had people who didn't like them because of who they were.
The only difference was that people actually had a reason to hate Ace. He did kill and other horrible things. But the pirates, at least the captain and commanders didn't seem to mind who he were. They were good people, better than most he had met.
And that's the chapter, hope you enjoyed
It's always nice with bonding and Ace have many he needs to bond and get to know better
