Chapter 574

Chapter 574 is called "Portgas D. Ace Dies"

Summary
Ace is shown hugging Luffy while taking his last breath. Ace asks Luffy to forgive him for not letting Luffy save him completely. Marco tells Mr. 3 to make him a key so he can take off his kairouseki handcuffs. While allies and members of the Whitebeard pirates fend off Admiral Akainu. Sengoku is forced to subdue Garp, because otherwise Garp would attempt to kill Akainu. Ace's nakama call a doctor, but Ace says it's too late because his insides have been melted. Many flashbacks from Ace's past are shown in which people commented that if Gol D. Roger has a kid, that kid should just die. Ace then says his last words, how he will miss everyone, and how glad he was to be accepted by his nakama and to have a family. In the final flashback, Luffy is crying and Ace tells Luffy that he is never gonna die cause he has little brother to worry about. With that, his vivre card burns completely and a flashback of his mother is shown naming him Gol D. Ace. Both Whitebeard and Garp start to cry. In the final scene, Ace dies in front of Luffy's lap, leaving Luffy alone with a tormented expression on his face, and apparently spelling the end for the Gol bloodline.
