Portgas D. Ace or Gol D. Ace, was the adoptive brother of Monkey D. Luffy and Sabo. He is the son of the previous Pirate King (because Luffy's next in line! yay!), Gol D. Roger and the second division commander of Whitebeard Pirates. Well, you can say that he was also adopted by Edward Newgate, captain of the Whitebeard Pirates!
He is one of my favorite characters in One Piece. As I have mentioned in my previous blog, I really enjoyed watching his chibi days with Luffy and Sabo for they reminded me of my crazy and full of adventure childhood.
This character also broke my heart to pieces. </3 I remembered crying a lot when I saw him die. I cursed and couldn't stop my tears. xD My parents weren't very surprised when I went out from my room with puffy eyes, though. It's like, they've seen enough craziness from me that there's nothing that can surprise them anymore..
I'm not sure how "normal" people think of me if they see my reactions every time I watch anime, but I don't really care. What's important is that the people who are dear to me, understands and accepts me. :)
Ahh~ I'm running in circles again... sorry!
So, going back to Ace.
He ate the devil fruit called "Mera Mera no Mi" (literally Flame Flame fruit in English). This kind of devil fruit is a logia type. Logia types are considered the rarest and the most powerful type of Devil fruit. It allows the user to use limitless amount of power. In Ace's case, he can use and transform parts of his body into flames.
So far, I know several logia types (smoke, electricity, ice, lava, sand, etc) but I really like the Zoan type of devil fruit. Zoan devil fruits allow the user to transform into animals and even into some mythical creatures!!! Isn't it amazing?? ^^ Perhaps, I'll make a blog about it soon. haha~ (I talked too much again..)
By the way, when a "Devil fruit user" dies, the devil fruit will take its form again and can be eaten by a new user. As of the moment, Sabo (Ace and Luffy's other adoptive brother) inherited this ability. <3 Long live Mera Mera no Mi! At least, Ace abilities and memories will forever be remembered! ^^
I love you, Ace!! <3
As for the drawing, I made this a few days after I watched that heartbreaking episode. I wanted to hurt my heart more by doing this... jk~
It's actually to commemorate this amazing character. :)
On my sketchpad, I used a pencil for the sketch and Faber-Castell coloured pencils. I also used a reference for this drawing. ^^
So, there you have it!
