The middle forest between Gorbo Mountain and Waste Terminal.

Ace took Luffy and Uta to a giant tree.

"Sabo, are you there? Sabo?!"

Ace made a trumpet shape with his hand and shouted toward the giant tree.

Soon, several people saw a young man wearing a blue hat sticking his head out and saying.

"What have you been doing these days, Ace?"

"I've done quite a few jobs in the past few days."

Suddenly, Sabo noticed two strange people standing next to Ace, and he suddenly became wary.

This is where they hide their treasures, and they cannot be discovered by outsiders.

"Who are these two guys?"

Luffy then introduced himself with a smile.

"Yo! I'm Luffy and this is Uta."

Sabo looked confused and asked Ace.

"What the hell, Ace?"

Ace scratched his head.

"Well! It's hard to explain this matter. Anyway, come down first and I'll tell you slowly."

...

Tens of minutes later.

"What? You said Luffy knocked you down with one punch?"

Sabo exclaimed with a shocked look on his face.

"Careless! Careless! I've been told that I was careless."

"You guys, do you listen carefully to what others say?"

Ace grinned angrily and argued unconvinced.

"Hahahaha! I didn't expect Ace to be taught a lesson by others one day! Hahahaha..."

Sabo didn't listen to Ace's excuse at all, slapping his thigh and laughing.

Boom!

At this moment, Ace suddenly hit Sabo on the head with an angry fist, immediately stopping Sabo's laughter.

If he can't beat Luffy, he can't beat Sabo?

Sabo held his head in pain and looked at Ace.

"Ace..."

Ace crossed his arms and tilted his head proudly.

"snort!"

After Ace's introduction, Luffy also officially met Sabo.

In the days that followed, a few people lived a life of either competing with each other or going to the waste terminal to rob the treasures of robbers and criminals.

However, after sparring with Ace a few times, Luffy could no longer improve Conqueror's Haki from him.

Ace's Conqueror's has not yet awakened, and the limit of improvement is still too low.

...

Waste terminal.

“I made a lot of money this time!”

"Mr. Borshemy is right! As soon as the greedy businessman heard about the Grand Line's treasure, his expression changed drastically and he rushed out."

"Actually, it's all garbage floating to the beach! Hahahaha..."

The two men were laughing and joking about the treasure they had just snatched from a certain businessman.

At this time, they suddenly noticed two short figures appearing in the faint mist ahead.

When the two of them continued to move forward and wanted to find out what was going on, two figures jumped up at the same time, and the steel pipe in their hands fell down, hitting their heads heavily.

After a while.

Ace and Sabo excitedly held the newly acquired treasures and sighed with excitement.

"This harvest looks quite big! It's a bag full!"

"Yes! We are one step closer to our dream."

The two left leisurely.

Little did they know that someone had noticed them secretly.

...

Middle forest.

Sabo was sleeping alone on the top of a giant tree when he suddenly heard the sound of someone communicating nearby.

"Ace and Sabo, they are famous brats around here."

"They were the ones who snatched the treasure from you last time, right?"

The tall Jamie asked the man next to him whose treasure was robbed by Ace and Sabo last time.

one of them replied.

"Yes, I'm really ashamed. I was so careless at the time."

Birjime looked angry.

"You are so bold, you dare to touch our pirate group's money."

As he spoke, he asked another person next to him.

"The last time you followed them was around here, right?!"

"Yes, I saw them come here with my own eyes."

Hearing the conversation coming from below, Sabo was already breaking out in a cold sweat.

If this group of people were allowed to search here, their treasure would definitely be discovered.

In desperation, Sabo jumped up and ran away.

The sudden movement immediately attracted Birjime and others.

"Hurry up!"

...

The Dadan family.

Luffy and others were still sleeping soundly.

The door was suddenly pushed open.

"Something's bad, Luffy!"

The sound woke everyone in the house.

Luffy slowly opened his blurry eyes and saw Ace standing at the door, looking terrified and his eyes full of worry.

"What's wrong, Ace?"

Ace rushed to Luffy, handed him a note, and said at the same time.

"When I went to find Sabo this morning, I found this note nearby."

Luffy took the note and wrote on it.

"We have Sabo in our hands. If you want to save people, come with all your treasures. - Mr. Blue and his gang."

"Mr. Blue 5?!"

Luffy muttered, he seemed to have heard this name before.

"Blue Mr. 5 is the captain of the Sapphire Pirates. Because they pay tribute to the kingdom, they have never been bound by the law. If Sabo falls into their hands, he will definitely be killed."

Ace said worriedly from the side.

Luffy also recalled that this Blue Mr. 5 was the pirate who forced Ace to awaken Conqueror's in the original book.

Thinking of this, Luffy suddenly had an idea.

Maybe he could use this Blue Mr. 5 to let Ace awaken Conqueror's, and he would teach him from the side.

This would not only improve Ace's strength, but also allow him to practice with Ace later and improve his Conqueror's Haki.

Thinking of this, Luffy said to Ace.

"Ace, you have been training for so long, it's okay to give you the task of saving Sabo, right?"

"Let's go! I will observe in secret, and if you can't do it, I will take action."

Ace was stunned for a moment, and then he was full of fighting spirit.

"I will definitely rescue Sabo."

......

Waste Terminal, on a pirate ship on the coast.

Sabo was tied to a pillar, and Borjemi kept punching him.

At this moment, Sabo was covered in blood, in a trance, and looked extremely weak.

"Still unwilling to tell, kid? Tell us the whereabouts of the treasure and Ace quickly, and you won't have to suffer this."

Sabo's breath was weak, and he said in a weak voice.

"I... I won't tell you. Besides, your fist is much weaker than Ace's."

Hearing this, Borjemi was furious, and he waved his fist at Sabo again with his teeth bared.

Bang!

At this moment, a small figure suddenly jumped onto the deck.

"Stop!"

Ace held a steel pipe, and his expression suddenly changed when he saw Sabo's appearance, and his face was suddenly full of anger.

Seeing Ace appear, Borjemi's fist stopped.

The other pirates also cast their eyes, full of amusement.

"How is it, did you bring the treasure?"

When asking, Borjemi suddenly noticed that Ace was empty-handed, and frowned immediately.

"Are you looking for death? You dare not bring the treasure you robbed us."

When Mr. Blue saw Ace appear, a smile appeared on his face.

But when he learned that Ace did not bring the treasure, he was completely covered by murderous intent.

"Berjemi!"

Mr. Blue called out in a low voice.

Berjemi immediately understood, clenched his fists, and walked towards Ace.

The two quickly entered the fighting state.

After more than a dozen rounds of confrontation, Ace finally found the right opportunity, seized Borjemi's gap, and gave a heavy blow.

Soon, he won the victory with the upper hand.

"Oh? You are quite capable!"

Mr. Blue was very surprised, but also interested at the same time.

Slowly stood up from the chair and walked towards Ace.

There was no time to rest, Ace joined the battle again.

......

Bang!

Ace, who was covered in wounds, was kicked to the ground by Mr. Blue 5, and then stepped on heavily.

"If you hadn't dared to rob my treasure, I would have wanted to take you as my subordinates."

"Now, tell me where the treasure is?"

"Otherwise, you two little ghosts will die here today."

Ace's face was stepped on by Mr. Blue 5, but he still had an unyielding attitude.

"Don't dream, those are our treasures, we will never tell you."

"Asshole little ghost!"

Unexpectedly, this Ace is also a guy who is as stubborn as Sabo, which ignited Mr. Blue's anger again.

He looked at a subordinate beside him and nodded to him.

Then he showed a sinister smirk and said.

"If you don't say anything, I will kill your partner first."

"Look at him, he is already dying!"

Ace looked at Sabo worriedly, but still kept his mouth shut.

He knew Luffy was nearby and would definitely save Ace.

At this moment, behind the cabin behind the deck, Uta whispered with a worried look on his face.

"Luffy, if you don't take action, Sabo will be killed."

"No hurry!"

Luffy sat quietly on the ground, and his observation Haki could let him know everything about the current situation.

He was confident that he could save Sabo at the last moment, so he was not in a hurry, but wanted to force Ace again.

Because Conqueror's usually awaken when they want to do something very much, so he has to wait until the last moment and give Ace some time.

On the deck.

Blue Mr.5 asked again.

"Why, you still don't want to say it?"

Ace gritted his teeth, his thoughts were extremely confused.

He was wondering why Luffy hadn't appeared yet, and he was also worried whether Luffy was not nearby, and he was even more worried about Sabo's safety...

At this time, Blue Mr.5 completely lost his patience and glanced at the subordinate with the knife.

"Do it."

The subordinate raised the big knife in his hand and aimed at the dying Sabo.

Seeing this scene, Ace became even more flustered.

Nervousness, worry, doubt, anger, all kinds of emotions filled his mind.

His body was also soaked with sweat.

Seeing the big knife getting closer and closer to Sabo's head, Ace's emotions were magnified to the extreme at this moment.

There was only one thought in his mind.

"Stop!"

Ace roared.

Suddenly, an astonishing momentum suddenly erupted from him.

All the pirates around were instantly filled with fear.

The next moment, except for Mr. Blue 5, all the pirates on the scene rolled their eyes and fell to the ground.

At this time, Luffy, who was hiding in the dark, slowly raised the corner of his mouth.

Finally...

Ace's Conqueror's awakened.
