The way to reach Wano is treacherous, that's why most people don't come in. They can't really get fish from the ocean nearby. [ anyway don't worry the twist is this: ] ...A while ago, a pirate took over the country. The stuff he's doing is poisoning the land and the water around. That's why there was a famine. He's a tyrant. I was actually in the area to take his head--well, I probably would've gotten killed back then, but he wasn't on the island while I was.
The guy's unhinged. He's kept his son prisoner and making sure he never leaves the island by putting exploding handcuffs on him. If he ever goes too far or tries to take them off, he's dead.
[ that get him later though... ace looks a little guilty and a lot angry as he sighs ]
I haven't yet. I tried to argue with Whitebeard, but he said that guy's got an army with him and I'd just get a lot of the people on the island killed just going at it wildly.
[ by his face it is probably obvious to tell this was not a one off argument ]
[ thank god no one from wano is here to see the desecration... ace just lets it happen and laughs because he wasn't gifting this to anyone before so. this is funny. he now has an idea. ]
That's pretty colorful, kid. Is this your type of thing?
[ "Sorry, I've already got a hat" okay but so does he??
Which means that instead of sticking to his hair, the straw hat is stuck to his school cap, and Hanako can take take them both off and plop them down on Ace's head. Get triple hatted, punk! ]
[ yeah he wouldn't glue a kid's head it's gentle bullying????
but also this is just an exchange of hatting he will take them off his hat to put back on and then stand up because hanako is too short to reach if he does that ]

What's the point of taking over a country if you're going to kill everybody in it? You'd better have got him later.

If I could go there, I'd pop in and give him a good stab. [ a stab, and a twist, and then a couple more stabs ] It's not like they can kill me.
