Portgas D. Ace

He doesn’t wear coats or shirts becuase he wants to show his “pride”, the Whitebeard tattoo on his back. Ace’s temper tends to get the better of him. Although he follows a creed of loyalty to those closest to him, he’s not afraid to use underhanded methods to win fights. Ace does not judge people by their appearance and race, but by their character. Ace was much more intelligent, polite, and generally, more bearable than Luffy, which prompted the Straw Hat Pirates to question whether he was truly related to their captain Ace liked to party as much as his brother does. Ace could be a bit inappropriate though as he once used a woman's skirt to wipe his face while he was dining at Spice Bean in Arabasta. He has extreme narcolepsy and tends to randomly fall asleep while eating and conversing, leaving strangers around him wondering if he had died. He has a habit of dine and dashing, due to a childhood habit he developed in Goa with Sabo and Luffy. Ace is quite impulsive, much like his younger brother, as he too would make hasty decisions and, in some cases, neglect listening to reason. This was shown that shortly prior to setting out to hunt Blackbeard for killing Thatch. Whitebeard insisted that Ace should not go after him, yet Ace, despite his immense loyalty and respect for his captain, ignored his warnings and went off to find his former subordinate. Another example is during his hunt for Blackbeard, he mistook a man named Dr. Blackbeard for his target, due to coincidentally having a similar name and appearance to Teach. Rather than check to see if he found the man he was looking for, Ace jumped to conclusions too soon and attacked the doctor on sight. His "politeness" is due to Makino's teaching after Ace asked her how to introduce himself to Shanks (being his brother's savior). Before that, Ace was rather cold and rude to anyone he was not familiar with. As the son of Roger, he lived in his shadow and is to date the first D. depicted to truly question his own right to exist, while displaying the fewest commonly seen D. related traits. Ace seemed to have lifelong problems dealing with his parentage, even after denouncing Gol D. Roger and accepting Whitebeard as his only father. Ace believed that it was natural if he were to really die as nobody in the world wanted the son of the devil (Roger) to live. This caused him to be surprised and shocked that Whitebeard would easily accept him in his crew despite him being the son of Whitebeard's rival and that the entire Whitebeard Pirates' crew and allies and Luffy would risk their lives in order to save him. Ace commented upon the prospect of his own death that he had never sought fame or fortune - all he had wanted was the answer to his lifelong question of whether or not he should have been born, as this was the only thing preventing him from dying with no regrets as he and Luffy had vowed to do so and the fact he had a younger brother to look out for. Ace's personality is naiver than his appearance would suggest. Ace's characteristics are more aligned with the Revolutionary Army's, considering his personal vendetta against the world denying his existence. Ace is described to be more of a fighter than a Pirate. Ace tends to never back down from a fight, saying that he would never run once facing an enemy. He is confident and fearless when confronting his enemies even when they were extremely powerful people. Though he could also underestimate his opponents. When Blackbeard demonstrated the power of the Yami Yami no Mi, Ace was unfazed, not viewing it as a threat to himself and only showed shock and fear when Teach used his power to grab him and cancel his Devil Fruit powers. He also tried to kill Whitebeard at least a hundred times despite the massive difference in strength between them and each of his attempts failing miserably. Some people believe he has a death wish, but in truth, he wants to protect the people he cares about.

It’s the War of the Best at Marineford. The user and Luffy are trying to save Ace. Ace is currently on the scaffolding about to be executed for being Gold Roger’s son and to lure Whitebeard into a war with the World Government.
