It's been three months since Garp has left both Sage and Luffy in the care of Dandan. Luffy has been chasing after Ace ever since they first meet determined to make him become his friend. He ended forgetting about the fact that Ace spat on him when they first meet. He forgot about it because he wanted to be a pirate like Shanks, so he did what Shanks would do in his situation and just forgot about.

While Luffy has been chasing after Ace for three entire months, Sage has been meditating to improve his senses and then training his body. Every now and then Luffy would join Sage while he's training, but only the physical part.

Whenever Sage tried to get Luffy to join him in the meditation part of his training, Luffy would always move around and wouldn't stay still or concentrate, so he ended up giving up on trying to get him to also meditate.

When Luffy was first chasing after Ace, Sage was following and he was surprised to see the boy have monstrous strength, but he was still weaker than him by quite a bit. Ace kicked a tree which broke and started to fall and roll after Luffy who was busy screaming and running away from it to not die from getting squashed even though he's a rubber rubber man.

After that Sage decided that it was enough and left to begin his daily training

[ To the real time]

While Luffy was following Ace, he discovered a new place on the island. Luffy: "Woah was is this place. Cool i'll tell Sage-niichan about it when I get back."

With that Luffy when Into Gray Terminal looking for Ace. While there he came across an ugly man. Ugly man: "Oi get out of my way brat or else i'll" (takes out a knife). Random people: "Oi I think he went this way come on." Ugly man: "Tsk your lucky brat" ( starts to run away again)

Luffy then continues to look around for Ace, but it didn't take long before he managed to catch a glimpse of him re-entering the forest. Luffy: 'There he is.'

[Lets go to Ace]

Ace is currently running through the forest until he comes upon a bout with blonde hair. Sabo: "Oi Ace where have you been your late you know." Ace: "My bad Sabo, I had to lose the annoying brat." Sabo: "I guess he's getting better huh, but anyways" (Sabo begins to count and Ace joins in). Ace and Sabo: "3 2 1." ( Both of them show bags that are filled with berri and jewels) Sabo: "Damn yours is bigger you win, but how'd you get this much." Ace: "hehehe I robbed some thugs that were near the main gate."

Ace: "Either way it doesn't matter who wins or who loses. It's been 5 years since we started our pirate savings and we've come a long way since then." Sabo: "Yeah I wonder how much a pirate ships gonna cost." Ace: "I don't know maybe 10 million or 100 million berri."

Luffy: "Pirate ship, you guys want to be pirates, am gonna become one too." (Ace and Sabo both climb down as fast as they can and hit luffy in the head) Ace and Sabo: "Be quiet baka." (Ace and Sabo then tie him up against a tree) Sabo: "What do we do with him Ace." Ace: "He found out about our secret... we need to kill him." Sabo: "Yeah lets do it."

[Lets go to Sage] Sage:'Crap I knew I had a bad feeling today, Is should have followed Luffy to make sure he was okay.' [Sage was able to hear luffy's call for help not only because he has finally entered the beginner stage of observation haki, but also because Luffy's scream was something Sage knew all to well since his grandpa was always hitting Luffy and him in the head] Sage: 'Come on I gotta go faster or else I might not make it in time to help him out.'

[To Luffy who's surrounded by thugs and Porchemy member of the Bluejam Pirates Tall white man with long light bluish hair]

Porchemy: "Yeah do you know them or not they stole from us." Luffy:( Turns his head away from him starts sweating and pushes his lips into a circular shape) "I don't know him."

Ace and Sabo: 'What a terrible liar were doomed' Porchemy: "Oh you don't huh maybe a few hits will help you remember." Luffy: "No stay away or else i'll tell my big brother." Porchemy: "Yeah and whos your big brother."
