deliver-the-heart:

A friend of mine said she hated oda for killing ace.
So this was my reply to her

Ace death helped shaped luffy into the man he is now,
Although ace death was sad and heart breaking , but it was important 
To me ace didn’t die in vain.
He died protecting his little brother and his dream
and he died fully understanding that he was and will forever be loved by his family
and that was all he really wanted know.
Knowing that even if he is gol d roger’s son , his family still loved him.

Ace died with no regrets
and that was a promise he made with luffy

To live a life with no regrets
