The coat fact was news to him and just thinking about why heād print or have someone customize a jacket for him with his brotherās bullshit seat title on it was a weird concept for the blond to fathom.
Luffy talking about the day made him swallow harshly this secret would get him killed but if this man really was a holder of the secret name and as amazing as he was, that Law trusted he was able to do the impossible, then surly telling him wouldnāt be that problematic would it?
He pushed aside his own coat, and unbuttoned the front of hi clean shirt. This would have exposed a similar heart shaped tattoo over where his heart would be, or where a normal personās organs would have been. His were on the other side and even he didnāt know this until the day he was shot and rendered unconscious.
ā Law, saw what happened. There is no faking that the man, whom was is my brother, by blood and not by honor, shot me in the area where your heart would be.ā There was a spider like gunshot scar across his chest underneath the tattoo.
ā I made a promise the day I regained consciousness that Ā even if it killed me, Iād find Ā Law again. It justā¦. took me a long time to get better, hone my skills, become stronger and by the time I did, Law was a warlord and I couldnāt expose myself, if I didā¦ Iām not some fanciful holder of the famed Willpower, Iām a fallen Celestial dragon a world noble. If I had exposed myself, Iād have been executed for treason among other things, and Iām not as strong as you or Law, I wouldnāt have been able to get awayā The question about Lawās childhood sparked a soft but very booming chuckle from the taller man.
āWell he stabbed me in the chest twice, tried to blow me up, peed in my tea, unless that was Buffalo or Baby-5.ā He doubted the latter because she was a girl and not a boy. āAlthough it could have also been apple juice or cyanide one of them. He was a very aggressive teenager, loved explosives and stabbing people. He of course had nothing to lose or so he thought. Weāve all lost dear ones to us, itās just that when I met Law, he thought he was going to die and he was very sick. I just helped him gain his magic that way he could show the world just how amazing of a doctor he is. I knew he wasnāt a bad kid when I met him, he was just desperate and that was it.ā
Luffyās eyes wandered toward his chest, his eyebrows scrunching together at the sight. So he had definitely been shot like Law had mentioned, and though the would was most definitely fatal he had survived. Had he been shot on the other side or even both he would have been dead. But either way he was lucky to have survived the shot and felt happy for both this man and Law.
āI see..ā Listening to his explanation had made a lot of sense, and he was sure that Law would also be understanding. He at least could confirm this man was no enemy to him or the Straw Hats and could be trusted without having to be suspicious. And though heās only known him for maybe roughly ten minutes, he could tell this man was no liar and was being genuine about everything. He could see how Law was able to get along with him.
His remarks about Lawās childhood had surprised him. Though expecting to hear about him beingĀ rude sometimes, he had never thought Law would ever be that violent.Ā
āStab? Blow up people?ā Although learning that about him had made his expression soften, knowing he would do things that violent as a child meant heās likely gone through a lot. He knew many people who would grow cold and distant due to things theyāve dealt with in their past and he didnāt know about anything he went through until he heard him mention a few things to Doflamingo. To think that he was so different back then compared to now surprised him. And he could tell this man was the one to have changed him and give him hope again. Based on what he said Law probably hated others for what theyāve done to him and maybe he was going down the wrong path, he just needed someone to take him to the right one again. And he respected him a lot for that. Not to mention he was grateful he saved his life as a child.
āHe seems completely than how you described him when he was younger. You must have really had an impact on him.āĀ
A thoughtful smile spread across his face as he pondered about Law.
āHe sometimes can be more distant or blunt, but you can tell heās still really kind. And heās caring too. I know because he talks about you a lot so you still mean a lot to him. And I know he trusts our crew a lot. Iām sure he cares a lot for his own crew too. So I think heās a changed man because of you. Maybe my own crew has softened him just a little too.ā
