I do now own One Piece but I do own this plot!
Sorry this chapter is kind short.


2 years later

(Luffy- 9, Ace and Sabo- 12)

Luffy slammed his fist into the flying ice disk hitting it head on. He grinned stupidly looking to Aokiji. The ice logia user smirked amazed at how quickly all three boys improved.

Luffy was able to hit moving and still targets spot on and he was steadily unleashing his observation haki.

Ace and Sabo stood in front of each other. Sabo used observation haki managing to avoid all of Ace's punches.

The raven glared before speeding up and coating his hand in haki. He hit the blonde in the stomach sending him flying into a tree. Sabo glared pulling himself up.

He coated his fingers in haki and shot at the raven. Ace used observation haki and dodged. Sabo grinned as the area around him crumbled. "Dragons breathe."

Ace rolled his eyes at the blonde. "You really named your attack?"

Sabo grinned shrugging. "What can I say all cool heroes have certain attacks that they shout out during battle."

The two admirals couldn't believe the progress the boys have made in only two years. The older two both unlocked their haki. Luffy could aim and was close to unlocking observation haki.

Aokiji clapped his hands getting their attention. "It's been two years but I think you three are ready to train together now. You'll be fighting other marines to see what more you can learn from them."

The three brothers grinned cheering. They were excited knowing they were getting stronger extremely fast. Baralino looked at his watch. "The trainings over for today go get something to eat."

Luffy didn't need to be told twice. He grabbed his brothers hands and dragged them from the clearing quickly. He wanted to eat now!

The three boys piled food on their plates gaining disbelieving looks from the newer recruits. A pink haired boy looked to the marine next to him in shock. "W-Who are they?"

The marine glared at the three. "No one knows much about them, they showed up two years ago, they don't train with everyone else the admirals train them personally."

Another marine glared at the group as well and said loudly. "Everyone knows they got in because of their grandpa! Their nothing but weak rich kids!"

Ace and Sabo both stopped eating and looked up to the marine making so much noise. Ace glared at the man. "If you doubt our skills then why not challenge us to a fight and see for yourself how strong we really are."

The marine stood smirking smugly. Suddenly two men grabbed Ace and Sabo from behind. The marine made his way to Luffy who was still eating.

Luffy looked at the man confused. He looked to his two brothers who were cursing being held back. "You three think you're so great just because your Garps grandsons!"

Luffy's eyes darkened when one of the men punched Ace in the stomach. He stood and cracked his knuckles. "You better let go of my brothers you jerk!"

The marine laughed rolling his eyes. "Oh yeah what are you going to do about it shrimp?"

Luffy didn't wait any longer and through his hand back connecting his fist with the guy's nose. He screamed clutching his bleeding nose. The marine glared lunging for the boy.

Luffy dodged the guy easily and lunged at the man holding Ace. He tackled the marine and punched him in the face as well.

Ace smirked darkly and coated his fist in haki before slamming it into the marine holding Sabos face. The man was instantly out. Sabo crackled his neck and the three brothers stood back to back looking at the marines.

Before the fighting could get any worse it was broke up. "What's going on around here?"

Everyone froze up and looked back seeing Sengoku. When he saw the brothers he sighed almost annoyed. "What did you three do now?"

Ace and Sabo looked shocked and screamed. "They started it!"

The pink haired boy spoke up. "U-Um sir the other marines really did start the fight, those three were minding their own business when those three tried to do a sneak attack on them, they then went after the younger one."

Sengoku nodded looking at the three bleeding marines. "You three are being demoted back to trainees, since you can't seem to grasp that we do not harm our comrades."

They nodded before scurrying out of the room. The three brothers grinned at the pinked haired boy. "Hey kid who are you?"

The boy looked nervous. "U-Uh my names Coby I'm a new recruit i-it's nice to meet you!"

Luffy snickered at the teen's nervousness. Ace and Sabo both smirked knowing they could be intimidating even though they were only twelve. They three left the cafeteria heading back to their room.

Ace sat on the bed and pulled Luffy into a hug. "Are you alright Lu? Those bastards didn't hurt you did they?"

Luffy grinned shaking his head. He liked when Ace gave him hugs, he was always so warm. Sabo wrapped his arms around Luffy as well joining in on the family hug.

The three brothers only had each other to rely. Sabo pulled back grinning. "You know at the way we're going we could probably all be out of here before our seventeenth birthday."

Ace smiled wishing that could be true. He wanted to be free just as badly as his brothers did. Luffy cheered happily. "Yay! I can't wait to become pirates! Ne Ace, Sabo let's stay together forever! We can accomplish our dreams even if we're all three captain."

Sabo was shocked Luffy had come up with a pretty good idea. "You know Lu you're actually right, who says we can't all be captains? Why do we have to follow any kind of rules we're pirates!"

Ace smirked liking the idea of always having his brothers around. Knowing without a doubt someone was always watching his back would be really comforting.

Ace nodded his agreement and stuck his hand out. "To become a notorious pirates and surpass HIM!"

Luffy snickered placing his hand on Aces. "To become a great pirate and return Shanks his hat or be the pirate king!"

Sabo smiled at his two brothers laying his hand on top. "To be free and make a book about my adventures as a pirate!"

The three threw their hands in the air cheering loudly. Happy smiles on their faces. All three couldn't wait to be free because where they were now was just another cage.
