Ace held his eye that was starting to bruise already, damn haki, and glowered at Marco. "Are you finished hitting me yet?" Ace said with a defeated tone. He deserved every hit and that punch. But honestly, he's not used to dealing with shit like this, alright? So he over reacted a bit...but in all honesty it's how he really felt. Now Marco was pissed...this was not a good thing. He wanted cuddles not a pissed off birdy.

"My inability to defeat Teach led to Pops death. You cannot deny that. It's fact. It happened. I was too cocky. I thought I could beat him but he was able to beat me instead. I love my family Marco and I didn't mean to piss you off.....I really did think it was my fault...all of it. But I guess...it's not...I really am worthless. Can't even apologize correctly anymore."
