Chapter Ten: Ace the Conqueror
Luffy's POV
Ace asked why they would want to burn down Gray Terminal. I frowned when he asked this because it's not something he wants an answer to. Bluejam told us to be quiet because no one is supposed to know about it.
"It happens every five years, a search of uncleanliness in Goa Kingdom. Gray Terminal is full of subjects that are considered unclean" I told him.
"Smart boy. No wonder you're the Global Leader" Bluejam said making me glare at him. "The Noble told me that the Global Leader has a memory that spans to the start of the world.
Is that true?" he asked. This surprised Ace making me sigh.
"Yes it is. Global Leaders are higher in status than anyone else because they were around even before the Gorosei" I said. "Good to know, hold them" Bluejam ordered.
We were grabbed before Bluejam told us that we're to be kept here in Gray Terminal. "Where is the Treasure you're keeping?" he asked making me frown.
"I told your Crew when they captured me. My Treasure's worth more than what Ace stole" I informed him. "The Cave beneath a Tree in the Canyon below a Rope Bridge" I told him.
Scene Change: Bluejam Hideout
We were tied to a pole as the bombs went off. Fire was engulfing the Hideout and I can only imagine the fear of the occupants of Gray Terminal.
I was glad that I warned them before Bluejam started his plan. Ace was trying to cut the rope but he was having a hard time doing so. "How's the cutting going?" I asked before it was finally cut loose.
Ace told me we had to leave before I got up. He grabbed my hand pulling me along so I wouldn't trip.
I ended up tripping landing face first anyway. He told me to get up and we'll be fine. I know we will be but I wonder why he told me that.
Third Person POV
Dragon had arrived in Goa Kingdom to find Sabo lying face first on the ground. "What happened here Sabo?" Dragon asked knowing he's a friend of his son's.
"You're Monkey D. Dragon right? Luffy's father?" Sabo asked making Dragon nod. "I hate being a Noble, I hate this place, they do such terrible things here" Sabo said surprising Dragon.
'What have you done to make this boy hate you this much?' Dragon thought in astonishment. "Luffy told me to tell you that the people of Gray Terminal are on the Shore" Sabo said before he lost consciousness.
My son is the only one who can save this world now. He's the only one with the power to do so. I'm proud that he's my son and has done so well regardless of his age.
Luffy's POV
We were running somewhere when I felt my Birthmark burn. Is my father finally here?
I hope he is because the people need to be saved. "Don't stop running Luffy" Ace yelled at me. I was right next to him which surprised him, his yelling was also very loud. (1)
We continued running before I pulled Ace back. The path was about to be blocked and he was running fast enough to not be able to stop in time.
Ace asked where we were making me growl when hearing foot steps behind us. A familiar voice asked who told us we could leave. Ace asked why they were still here since they said they were leaving once the fire started.
"Sabo's father lied to you right? He would never make someone of lower status a Noble" I told him.
He yelled at me to be quiet making me growl again. They were all delirious from the smoke inhalation and from being lied to by a Noble. Ace told me to run but I didn't.
"We're cornered Ace so there's no point in it" I told him. He grabbed my hand anyway pulling me with him but stopped.
"Told you, cornered" I said frowning slightly. Bluejam told us that we did this together so we're all dying together. I wasn't surprised he said it but it's not going to happen.
Bluejam asked about the Treasure again, Ace and Sabo's Treasure not mine. He said he would save it before the fire reaches it.
Ace knew he was nuts when he cared more for the Treasure than his life, I felt bad for him. Many Pirates care more for money than they do someone's life. It's not just Nobles and Bluejam.
Ace said he would tell them making me sigh. "Do you really think they'll let us out of here?
There's no way to even get to Shore or the Forest from here" I told him. He told me that it's still not worth our lives to keep it from them. Said that Sabo would understand.
Ace drew a map on a wood slab before telling them it was in that tree. All six years' worth of Treasure.
Frowning I heard Ace tell me not to. Bluejam smiled making me sigh. We were grabbed around the necks before Ace started yelling.
Bluejam held a Gun in front of Ace's head. He said he's not above murdering children, or stealing from them.
Bluejam started talking down about Sabo making me angry. Steam came from the man who held me by the neck. He dropped me yelling 'ow' when I landed on the ground.
The man, regardless of being burned, slashed his Sword at me cutting my eye. This angered Ace before the Sword was about to be plunged in my stomach.
I felt something familiar and heard a familiar sound when Ace yelled at him to get away from me. Ace has the capability to be a Conqueror. Everyone around us except for Bluejam fell unconscious angering him.
Ace ran over to me as I sat up asking if I was okay. I nodded covering my right eye before Bluejam grabbed Ace by the neck.
He threw Ace away from me before I heard the click of a Gun. Ace was going to be killed for using the same thing Shanks did on Lima. He doesn't even know he did it.
