Hello everyone, here is another one shot. This is some missing scenes
This is going to be how people reacted to hearing Ace was dead, specifically those who were called
Hope you enjoy
Read and relax
Daisuke sat and tried to relax in a chair. There thankfully weren't more than a few days to Amegakure with their fast boats. It would be good to get back and be able to fully relax. Even though they still needed to handle what had happened and how their identities had been revealed. That would cause issues and they needed to handle that as fast as possible. It was worse for some than others. It was the worst for those who were something with their real name. Like Ace, Jace, Trevor, Mika, Raiden and Hanzo. Hopefully they could save this.
After a minute, his Den Den rang, which made him give a frown. Everyone who had his number was on this or one of the other boats close by, everyone aside from Ace that was. Maybe Ace called to tell he was finished with everything on Sabaody Archipelago. Although, Ace usually used Dust.
Daisuke took the Den Den and answered it. ¨State your name and business.¨ There were a few others who did have his number, and a lot had happened now. He would see who it was and take it from there.
¨Daisuke. It's Whitebeard.¨ Daisuke gave a small frown. He would understand if Ace called, but not the captain. ¨Newgate, why are you calling?¨ Maybe he was calling instead of Ace. Ace might be tired; they all were. It took a second, but the Den Den spoke up, having a strained look. ¨Something happened a few hours ago, when Ace was finished with everything.¨ There was a pause, which he didn't like. ¨What happened, Newgate? Is everything fine?¨ Daisuke really didn't like this. The Den Den gave a sigh.
¨Someone attacked Ace when his back was turned, somehow having a devil fruit no one knew about. Ace… Ace didn't make it.¨
Daisuke closed his eyes. After everything that had just happened, was this how it was going to end for Ace? He looked at the Den Den, ¨I understand. My condolences to you and your crew. If it would be okay, I, and some others, would like to come by.¨ The Den Den nodded. ¨Of course, Daisuke. You are welcomed here, as are the others.¨ Daisuke nodded. ¨I will do a few things, then we will head towards your position.¨ The Den Den nodded. ¨That sounds good. See you then, Daisuke.¨ Daisuke nodded. ¨We will.¨ He then hang up.
As he had hang up, Daisuke leaned back in his chair, giving a sigh. After everything, Ace was killed by a normal guy, taking advantage of Ace's tired state and him having his back turned. That was low.
After a few minutes, Moira came in, and before she could speak, Daisuke turned to her. ¨Get out ships close together and have everyone meet here.¨ Moira gave a nod, ¨Why?¨ Daisuke shook his head. ¨I will explain when everyone is here.¨ Moira gave a nod and went to do that. Daisuke didn't want to tell too many times. When she left, Daisuke leaned back in his chair and tried to think what the best course of action was right now.
After around fifteen minutes, everyone was gathered. When everyone was there, Daisuke silenced them as he stood up. ¨I just got a call from Edward Newgate. Something unfortunate happened and someone attacked Ace from behind, and he didn't notice it as he was exhausted. Ace didn't make it.¨ It was silence for a minute, before Trevor gave a nod, face blank. ¨What now?¨ Daisuke gave a sigh, he knew all of them wanted to go see Ace, they all cared for him and had seen his progress. Well, not all, but most.
¨Raiden, Trevor, Mika and Moira to come with me, as we'll take this boat to the Whitebeards, the rest of you go back to Amegakure and do damage control. Moira and I will help too, but we'll do it from the boat.¨ Everyone nodded, before those who weren't going to come with him left. He saw Hanzo, Corvo, and Soul sending a look at him, clearly wanting to come with them, but they needed to do damage control. If the Whitebeards held a ceremony, they could come then.
When there were only the ones heading to the Whitebeards ship, they changed their course. When they started sailing, Trevor and Mika went off on their own, Raiden going to his own room. When they were gone. Daisuke gave a nod and sat down, Moira sitting down next to him and gave him a sad smile. ¨He'll at least be happy now.¨ Daisuke gave a small grim chuckle as he nodded.
Ace was at least with Azuruko now.

Shanks sat in his galley with most of his crew, Karin sitting next to him and looking her usual emotionless self. As they were enjoying themselves and Shanks trying to make Karin smile, which was near impossible. That only happened on rare occasions. As he was trying to give her a drink, Rockstar came in the galley. ¨Shanks, Newgate is calling.¨ Shanks looked at Rockstar, a bit shocked. ¨What does he want?¨ He didn't have any idea why the man would call. Rockstar shook his head. ¨He didn't tell, saying he wanted to speak to you.¨ Shanks gave a nod. That meant it was serious.
He excused himself, went to the communication room, and sat down, looking at the Den Den that was awake. ¨Newgate, what makes you call?¨ It was silence for a second, before the Den Den gave a sigh. ¨There was an accident. Someone from our crew attacked Ace from behind.¨ There was a pause, and before Shanks could ask if Ace was okay, Newgate continued.
¨Ace didn't make it.¨
Shanks sat in shock for a minute, taking the information in. When he was sure he heard right, he gave a nod. ¨I see.¨ Shanks gave a sigh, he knew this would happen, but he didn't think it would happen now, after surviving everything happening on Sabaody Archipelago. Shanks took a deep breath, going to keep it as much together as he could.
¨I think you should call Garp and a woman called Dadan, they deserve to know.¨ The Den Den nodded, ¨We can do that. Do you have their number?¨ Shanks gave a nod and gave it to them. When he was finished, the Den Den gave a nod. ¨I'll call them now. Are you coming here?¨ Shanks gave a nod. ¨Yeah. We're just going to drop Karin off; we're close to her home.¨ The Den Den gave a now. ¨We'll see you then.¨ Shanks nodded. We will. And my condolences.¨ The Den Den gave a nod. ¨Thank you. We'll see you in a few days.¨ Then they hung up.
When they hung up, Shanks leaned back in his chair, taking a few deep breaths, moving a hand to his face. He wasn't prepared for this. He didn't want to go see Ace because he was dead.
After a few minutes, the door opened and Benn came in. ¨Shanks?¨ Shanks shook his head, ¨There was an accident. Ace didn't make it.¨ He heard Benn give a sigh before he walked over to a chair and sat down. ¨What now?¨ Shanks shook his head. ¨We're still taking Karin home, then we're heading there, to-.¨ Shanks moved his hands to his face. ¨Fuck. I'm not ready for this.¨ He was prepared to celebrate, not have a funeral.
He heard Benn give a sigh again, before a hand was at his leg, giving a pat. ¨We should tell the others.¨ Shanks gave a nod, still having his hands on his face. ¨Just give me a few minutes.¨ He felt Benn giving another small pat on his leg again, feeling a bit reassured by that. He wasn't alone at least, he had Been and an amazing crew. But, he was nowhere ready to face the fact Ace was now dead; he didn't know how to react.
After a few minutes, they headed to tell the others. Shanks and Benn went to tell everyone, Shanks still nowhere ready for this.

Garp sat and read through some documents. He knew there would be a lot of paperwork when the admirals returned. He had heard from one of the other vice admirals that they were heading back now, Sengoku having said that they managed to kill Adam, but the pirates and assassins had managed to get away. Garp doubted that; it didn't sit right that they just ran away. But it wouldn't be the first time Sengoku lied on what really happened. He would see if he could ask Ace later.
As he was finished with one document, his Den Den rang, and Garp gave a sigh, sure that it was more work for him. He answered the Den Den, trying not to look or sound annoyed. ¨Garp speaking.¨ Garp was shocked when he heard who started speaking. ¨Garp, it's Whitebeard. I have some news.¨
Garp had no idea why the man called. He looked at the Den Den. ¨Newgate. What kind of news? And could you put my shitty grandson on, I need to speak with him.¨ The Den Den gave a sigh. ¨Ace can't speak now, that's why I'm calling.¨ Garp didn't like the sound of Newagte's voice; it sounded strained. ¨Why the hell not? He can't be that busy!¨ The Den Den gave a sigh. ¨Something happened and someone attacked Ace.¨ Newgate stopped for a second, making Garp give a nod. ¨So he's in the infirmary then. Why not just take the Den Den there?¨ Why was the man being so difficult about this? He had every right to speak with his grandson.
The Den Den gave a sigh. ¨Garp, I'm sorry, but... Ace didn't make it.¨
Garp blinked. ¨What?¨ The Den Den gave another sigh. ¨Ace didn't make it. Bay did everything she could.¨ Garp looked at the Den Den. ¨No! I will not take those news! You can't just call and say this! How do you-.¨ It was cut off by a sob, his fake anger losing over his sadness. As soon as the sob left him, he hung up.
As he had hung up, he moved a hand to his face, wiping his tears away. He knew this would happen, but he was still not prepared for it. He might not like Ace's work or what he was, but Ace was his grandson. Garp looked up at the ceiling, closing his eyes. I failed Roger and Rouge.
After a small while, after gathering himself, he stood up and walked out of his office. He saw Vergo. ¨Vergo, I'm leaving for a week or two.¨ Vergo gave him a look. ¨You can't, Garp. We are needed here.¨ Garp gave a glare. ¨I don't care. If Sengoku gets mad, tell him to fire me!¨ He didn't care right now, he was going to go see his grandson… his dead grandson. Garp kept a sob down, going to go to his boat and leave. Be damned what everyone thought, he was going to see his grandson and say goodbye properly.
Why did Ace have to be an assassin.

Dadan sat in her hideout, trying to think of if they should do another scavenger hunt. They were getting low on some stuff. She was about to go tell the others they should prepare for a scavenger hunt, her Den Den rang. Dadan gave a sigh; she didn't have time for this. She gave a glare as she answered it. ¨What?¨ The Den Den had a calm, almost somber look. ¨This is Edward Newgate, I'm calling to inform you about something.¨ There was a pause, which made her roll her eyes. ¨What?¨ She knew who this was, and also that Ace had joined his crew.
The Den Den gave a sigh. ¨I'm calling to inform you that Portgas D Ace is dead.¨
Dadan hung up, not wanting to hear more.
When she had hung up, she moved her hand to her mouth, thinking and taking the news in. Ace was dead, at the young age of 20. It was doomed to happen, he was one of them anyway. Dadan gave a sigh, moving her hand to massage her face. The last few times Luffy and Sabo had visited, she had tried to ask a bit about Ace, just to see how he was. But, they never told her anything. The only thing worse was that Luffy gave small show that he was sad and mad about what she had done, and Sabo outright showed his dislike toward sher.
She had tried to think of how to change it, to maybe speak to Ace again, especially after he had saved Nick and other of her bandits. The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it, regretted just throwing him out like that, even doing it with Luffy and Sabo. The ones Ace had saved, especially Nick, were giving her mean looks about it.
Dadan moved her face to be in her hands. And now it was too late, Ace was dead. She could never fix her mistake.
And that's the chapter, hope you enjoyed
And while I did all of the reactions to show them, Dadan's was the one I wanted to show the most. She regrets throwing Ace out and has half-tried but was not sure where to start or what to do. If you want her to maybe get back, tell me
And the update schedule on the one shots is now going to be when I have requests and time to do them
