## One Piece Chapter 582, pages 10-13: Luffy and Ace - Chapter: 582 - Pages: 10-13 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Jimbei, Portgas D. Ace, Dadan, Sabo ### Summary Page 10: Luffy continues to smash through the forest and scream, "Go away!!! Go away!!!" Every blow sends rocks and trees flying, and his cries echo over the island. Jimbei lands heavily and watches him from below, breathing hard and saying nothing. Luffy's rampage is not directed at an enemy; he is trying to drive away the memory of Ace's death and the pain of realizing it is real. The destruction spreads across the coast as the island trembles under his grief, while Jimbei waits for the right moment to reach him. Page 11: Jimbei finds Luffy exhausted and collapsed after the rampage. Luffy shouts "Zaaa...!!" and glares through tears, while Jimbei begins, "The war is over... Ace is..." Luffy cuts him off, screaming, "Don't say it!!! Don't say anything...!!!" Jimbei asks quietly, "If I die... would you mind looking after my little brother?" recalling Ace's request, and Luffy says he has pinched his cheek hard enough to tear it apart, meaning this is not a dream. Jimbei tells him that if it were a dream, he would have woken up already, and Luffy admits, "I'm not dreaming, am I...?" Page 12: As memories of Ace smiling and encouraging him pass through his mind, Luffy finally says the truth aloud: "Ace... is dead, isn't he!!?" The page flashes back to Ace telling him, "You've gotten stronger, Luffy," and Luffy promising, "I'll surpass you someday, Ace." In the present, Luffy sobs uncontrollably, tears and snot running down his face while blood stains his bandages. Jimbei answers, "Yes... he's dead...!!!" The confirmation breaks through Luffy's denial and forces him to face Ace's death directly. Page 13: Luffy's grief erupts across the island. Flashbacks show him as a boy asking, "Who the heck is Ace!?" and being told, "He's going to be your brother from now on." In the present, he screams, "Uwaa-aaaahhhh!!!" so loudly that the sound spreads across Amazon Lily's cliffs and forests. The images of young Luffy crying are layered with the adult Luffy sobbing into his hands. The page bridges the present with the start of the childhood memory, making Ace's death not only a battlefield loss but the loss of Luffy's first brother.
