East Blue – Loguetown
"Man, I know that must be so kind of code, but what a strange conversation you guys just had", Luffy jokes.
"Well, the important thing is that it works", Sabo says, shrugging as he leads him to Dragon's office.
"You know, I always say the sa thing when my girlfriend tells my recruitnt thod is stupid," Luffy says, agreeing with Sabo on this point, it's the results that matter.
"Wait, did I hear that right? Does my little brother have a girlfriend? Since when?", Sabo asks, surprised.
"Yeah, it's been about a week since we started dating. She's my navigator; I'll introduce you to her later", Luffy replies with a smile.
They continue chatting until they reach the door to Dragon's office, where Sabo knocks and waits for a response.
"Co in", an imposing male voice is heard from inside the office.
Upon entering, Luffy finally cos face to face with his father, who left to buy cigarettes and never returned.
As they enter, Dragon pauses what he was doing and looks at them for a few seconds before asking Sabo, "Sabo, did sothing happen? Is the mission complete? And more importantly, what is my son doing here?"
"Well, funny story, I was on stakeout watching the target when Luffy here suddenly showed up right in front of , and the mont I looked at his face, I regained my mories and well, he, Ace, the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, and I are sworn brothers. And at so point in our conversation, he said he needed to talk to you because he had so information that could be of interest to the Revolutionary Army, so I asked Koala to take over my place while I brought him here", Sabo explains the situation.
"So, Dad, did you ever manage to find those cigarettes you went to get when I was born?", Luffy jokes.
"Son, I'm the most wanted man in the world; the governnt would do anything to capture . If you had stayed with or if they knew you were my son, you'd be in constant danger. So when you were born, I asked my father to take care of you, it was safer that way", Dragon says with a stoic face, hiding the sha and guilt he feels for missing his son's childhood.
"Shishishishi, you should have seen your face; that emotionless expression you try to keep was full of feelings! Relax, I was just joking. I understand your reasons, and I really don't mind that you weren't there. My life was happy, and I know and admire the cause you fight for, which is why I'm here today," Luffy says with a gentle smile.
"Thank you for understanding", Dragon says, relieved inside. "Changing the subject, how did you know I'd be here on this island?"
"Wow, spy work really is your thing! I was sure I'd find you in Loguetown; I wasn't as sure about Sabo, but you were a fact. And to explain how I knew, we have to go back three years to when I suddenly woke up with mories from soone of another universe rging with ...", Luffy then begins to tell them everything that happened from that point.
He then took the opportunity to tell them about what he had in those mories, focusing more on the manga of One Piece. He told them about Imu and the mysteries surrounding the person who sits on the empty throne, shared information about Nika, Joy Boy, and the enigmas surrounding these figures, how the One Piece is at the center of this entire conflict and could ultimately determine the future of the world. He also explained about his Akuma no Mi and what that implies for his future, the possible attack by Blackbeard on Baltigo in the future, and shared so of the theories that people from that other world had formulated.
"That... that's a lot of information to process", Dragon says, stunned.
"So, do you believe ?", Luffy asks, surprised.
"Of course we do. We're spies; knowing if soone is lying or not is part of the job, and you've never been a good liar, Luffy. It's just... who would've thought our world is just a fictional story? It gives a huge existential crisis", Sabo says, shaken by these revelations.
"Don't think about it too much. We live in this world, and it's real. The people are real, the stories are real. You just have to keep in mind that our universe is just one in an infinite sea of universes. The possibilities are endless. Just as soone could have written a story about a version of our world, there could just as easily be soone else writing a story about that person's world", Luffy says, calming him down.
"Well, you've definitely given us a lot to think about and consider when planning our next moves", Dragon says thoughtfully.
"That's right. If I were you, I'd start looking for a more secret place as a true base while keeping the base in Baltigo as a decoy. Have you heard of the sky islands?", Luffy asks, having an idea.
"Yes, we've heard of them, but only as legends", Dragon says, intrigued.
"So, they're real. Near Jaya, there's a Knock Up Stream that happens about five tis a month. It's one of the ways to reach the white sea in the sky. It's dangerous, but if you're careful, it's sowhat better than the other ways. The real problem arises when you have to descend to the blue sea. Getting back to the topic, near where you go up, there's an island called Skypiea. My crew will end up passing through there and after we take down the tyrant who thinks he's a god, you can use that place as a base; you'll just have to coexist with the locals, and I don't think the island's location is exactly known. The only ones I know who know its location are those who have been part of Gol D. Roger's crew", Luffy explains his idea to them.
"It's a pretty good idea. So we'll need to make a vivre card for you, so we can find you easily and get there more easily. I'll give you my number too. Do you have a white Den Den Mushi?", Dragon asks, already planning.
"I have a white Den Den Mushi, but my crew and I don't plan on staying in Skypiea for long. Wouldn't it be better for soone with a vivre card to co with us? That way, that person can stay there while we continue our journey. How about coming with us, Sabo? We'll end up finding Ace before we reach Skypiea, and I'll figure out a way to convince Ace to join us all the way to Jaya because I'm going to fight with Blackbeard there. That should be enough to persuade him to co along and join in on the fight too", Luffy says, explaining his plans.
"What's the issue between Ace and Blackbeard?", Sabo asks, curious.
"Teach killed a crewmate on Whitebeard's ship to steal an Akuma no Mi he wanted, so it's very likely Ace is hunting him down in this universe, too", Luffy says, explaining why Ace would want to go after Blackbeard.
"Well, that could work. What do you think, Dragon? You've got a piece of my vivre card, so", Sabo says, looking at Dragon, who appears to be thinking it over.
"Hmm, all right, we'll go with this plan. But it's better if you wear a mask while you're with Luffy. We don't want to get discovered, and we don't want to cause problems for Luffy's crew", Dragon says agreeing with the plan.
