【One Piece】Dawn in the Darkness

We are special, since you are also a noble..."

"Wow! Ah!" Sabo watched him step back in fear, then turn around and run away.

"Hey! Little devil!"

"Found it. Is that the child, the boy who ran away from home?" one of the guards said, pointing at Sabo standing on the street.

Sabo turned away in horror. "Ace! Luffy! Lucci! Everyone in this town is crazy! They know that the garbage mountain will catch fire and many people will die, but they still live their normal lives so calmly, as if nothing happened!" Sabo thought in horror. "You guys should escape from the garbage mountain! The people of this country, tonight... are ready to burn the stain of the country completely! ! "

"Quick! There he is!"

Sabo turned and ran quickly towards the town, but suddenly a pair of hands reached out from the dark alley next to him and pulled Sabo in. Sabo was startled and struggled hurriedly, "Who are you! Let me go!"

"Sabo, don't move, it's me!" Lucci pulled Sabo and whispered in his ear, always paying attention to the situation around him.

"Lucci?" Sabo looked at him in shock. "How did you get in?!"

"Shh! Have you forgotten my devil fruit? I sneaked in following the shadow of a noble, and I'm here to take you back." Lucci put his index finger to his mouth, made a hushing gesture, and explained softly.

"Sabo, what happened? You look uneasy." Lucci looked at Sabo worriedly.

Sabo took a breath and said to Lucci in panic, "Lucci, everyone in this town has gone crazy! The people of this country are going to burn down the garbage mountain and the people living in it tonight. We must find a way to notify Ace and Luffy."

"Sabo, Sabo! Calm down, it's okay, it's okay!" Lucci took a deep breath, controlled his anger, hugged Sabo tightly and tried his best to comfort him, and at the same time seemed to be saying to himself, "You have to believe in Ace, Ace and Luffy will be fine, Ace will protect Luffy!"

“Lucci!” Sabo hugged Lucci back tightly, tears in his eyes, and said to him angrily in a sobbing voice, “I miss you guys so much. The smell of this city is more disgusting than a mountain of garbage. It exudes the stench of rotting human hearts! I have no freedom here at all! I am ashamed of being a noble!!”

"Damn it! Nobles!" Lucci was angry at the nobles for making Sabo have such thoughts. Sabo, who had always been smart and rational, actually collapsed like this. It was definitely the nobles' behavior that hurt Sabo too deeply.

Long strolled in the shadows of the alleys in Gao Town of the Goa Kingdom, thinking that the Celestial Dragons would arrive at Dawn Island in three days, and that Lucci and Luffy should be raised by Garp in the village on Dawn Island. He suppressed the urge to go and check.

Long looked at the alley ahead and continued walking. What was important now was the revolution. I couldn't let anyone associate me with this island. Long was immersed in his own thoughts when he suddenly heard a boy's voice, "The smell of this city is more disgusting than a mountain of garbage. It emanates the stench of rotting human hearts! I have no freedom here at all! I am ashamed of being a nobleman!!"

Long hid in the alley and saw two boys around 11 years old hiding in the dark. He heard one of the blond boys express his anger towards the nobles. "Goa Kingdom! Finally let the children say such words?" Long thought angrily.

Lucci and Sabo hid near the exit of Gao Town. "I'm sorry Sabo, I didn't come to find you earlier and take you back." Lucci looked at Sabo guiltily and said.

"It's okay, Lucci, we will definitely leave this island and be free," Sabo said firmly, "Our most important task now is to find a way to get out and inform Ace and Luffy that there will be a fire at the Waste Terminal tonight, and we need them to leave quickly."

"Well, we have to find a way to get out of Gao Town first." Lucci said to Sabo.

"There are soldiers guarding the entrance and exit of Gaozhen," Sabo said to Lucci, staring at the exit in front.

"I'll lead them away later. Sabo, while their attention is drawn, sneak out first and we'll meet up at the border town," Lucci said to Sabo after thinking for a moment.

"Then how are you going to get out later?" Sabo looked at Lucci puzzledly.

"Remember the ability I used when fighting Ace before? This ability helped me a lot." Lucci said proudly to Sabo.

"Hahaha! I get it, I'll wait for you at our usual meeting place" Sabo grinned.

"Okay! Be careful, Sabo!" After Lucci said this to Sabo, he quickly ran to the city gate to make trouble, attracting the attention of the guards standing there.

Sabo took advantage of the fact that most of the guards were distracted by Lucci and quickly approached the exit. Sabo saw a guard standing at the exit. Sabo quickly approached the wall to hide his figure. When the guard approached, he raised his pipe to attack his head. After the guard fell, Sabo quickly passed through the exit and ran towards the border town.

Lucci looked at the guards chasing him closely, and ran into the alley. He took advantage of the complex terrain of the town alleys and successfully shook off the guards behind him.

"Sabo should have made it out successfully. I need to find a way to get out and meet him quickly," Lucci thought, and hid near the exit, staring at the people passing by the exit, looking for a target. "It's you," Lucci looked at the uncle who was talking to someone about going out to do something, and waited for him to get closer.

……

"Ace, I'm so hungry!" Luffy said with a pout.

"After we finish the last job in Bluejam, we will go home and eat as much meat as you want then." Ace looked at his brother who was holding his stomach with heartache. Apart from a relatively hearty breakfast this morning, they had been moving boxes the rest of the time and had not eaten anything the whole day.

Ace led Luffy to Bluezeum's base. He felt a little uneasy when he saw Bluezeum and his men all gathered here.

"Anything else?" Ace said, looking at Bluejam.

"One more thing, we need a little fire to help us burn the garbage mountain" Bluejam smiled arrogantly.

"Are we going to burn this mountain of garbage?!" Luffy shouted in shock.

"Idiot, stop shouting, the people in the garbage mountain will hear you!" Bluejem didn't expect them to disagree.

"Why are you doing this!?" Ace stared at Bluejam and shouted in shock.

"Oh no, we have to notify the uncles in the garbage mountain! You are really a bad guy!" Luffy jumped up and shouted angrily.

"I told you to stop arguing." Bluejam ordered his men, "Hey, hold them down! I'm not the mastermind!"

Bluejam looked at them and said proudly, "What you carried yesterday and today were fuel and bombs. No one can escape from this fire. No matter how cruel you are, you must be scared now. But now that you know, there is no way I can let you go."

He stared at them gloomily and asked, "Before the fire, let me ask you one more question. Where did you put the treasure you hid?"

"I don't know! I won't tell you!" Ace shouted angrily. His anger couldn't be stopped when he thought about Bluejam touching their gold coins with his dirty hands.

Bluejam stared at them gloomily for a while, then smiled and said, "Well, forget it. I don't need you anyway. You can just stay here and die!"
