Oh Why Am I Still Surprised
It turned out it was none other then Rebbec the princess of Dressrosa. He immediately remembered her breast when she popped out the goods to feed him. (I should become a handsome man when I grow up since I have such strong bloodlines right,) Ace thought as he sucked on the goddess nectar. Mentally it was weird because he was going to grow up forever remembering what his own mother breast look, felt, and tasted like. On the flip side, he did not care because his mother was freaking Rebbec the princess of Dressrosa.
One thing that plagued Ace mind constantly was trying to remember all the powerful beings in the series. He kept his ears open as the adults around him talk about what was going on. It seemed as though Luffy had finally become King of the Pirates. The three ancient weapons ready at his beck and call. Shanks and many other sworn to follow his command. Luffy had gone to the endpoint and captured One Piece. As to what One Piece was Ace was still at a lose. All he knew was his father was in the process of collecting old friends to provide them protection. He somehow grew wiser after claiming One Piece. He was a lot more mature in his decision and seem to listen to others that gave him advice. For christ sakes, he listens to others and was not selfish. Ace thought he fell into the twilight zone. Luffy was no longer the hothead fool that seems to rush into trouble. Part of the reason Luffy changed so much now was that he was a father who wanted to protect his son from the world. He still remembers how the world persecuted his big brother just because of Gol D. Roger.
Ace was able to learn a lot from the stories his father told him. Big Mama was still a problem but she had retired into her whole cake inland after all her children abandon her. Kaido was buried somewhere under a mountain of earth still very much alive. His crew scattered and broken. The world government was in a full-time war with the revolutionary army keeping most of the marines out of the new world. Blackbeard was in hiding after he lost half his crew to Shiryu betrayal and Kuzan returned to the marines. Luffy was not worried about Blackbeard, he just wanted to get revenge for Ace and the old man Whitebeard if he could. Admiral Sakazuki death was one of Luffy most favorite tales to tell Ace.
He could spin a tale to make it seem like it was something a lot less violent then it was. Luffy would always rub his chest then his knee after telling Sakazuki story. He apparently had lost his left leg in that battle. Now he walked on a prosthetic that Franky had made him out of Wapolmetal. Luffy was Ace's number one source when it came to what happened in the past as the man loved telling his son about his grand adventures. The girls Boa, Nami, Robin, Carrot and Rebbecca would always get teary-eyed as they watched and listen at the side. Life fell into a routine of eating, being changed, washed, playing and stories. Soon a year had past and Ace was able to walk on his own and had a good set of choppers on him. He's still got fed his favorite meal "MILK" but not as much as before. Rebecca was slowly winging him off it. His crazy father of course was delighted that he could feed the boy his favorite food. "I ONLY SHARE WITH LITTLE ACE NOBODY ELSE! I don't want to be a HERO" He would yell if anybody made a comment.
Over the year Ace also showed how intelligent he was by learning how to talk and showing an interest in reading books. Robin was on cloud nine the day he asked her to teach him how to read. She quickly placed the boy on her lap and he shamefully rubbed his head in her chest. He loved his mama's chest, all their chest. Mama Rebecca, Mama Boa, Mama Nami, Mama Robin, Mama Carrots were his favorite pillows to fondle. He loved being a toddler just for those moments. Ace knew once he grew out of being a toddler he would lose his chance at feeling such delights. He was determined to get his fill til then. Of course, his father was still a clues dotar on how the women around him actually felt about him. Luffy was just was too in love with eating meat to really notice anything else at all. Ace was still wondering how he was conceived or if Luffy truly was his father.
The idea of Luffy not being his father all ended one night when Ace decided to go walking to the kitchen for a snack. That's when he heard them. Luffy, Nami, Boa, and Rebbeca all together in the same room making unnatural noises. Robin found Ace standing in the hall like had lost his soul. She took the boy to sleep in her bed for the night. She was not a member of Luffy's private crew but she still treated Ace as her son. The reason the private crew behaved themselves before was because of Carrot. The rabbit mink noise was too strong and she was too inquisitive about such things that it embarrassed Luffy and the others. A no sex rule was made by the whole crew because of her. She was apparently out of the base keeping an eye out on the rest of the crew's return. She would not return until the next day.
Sanji the one man Ace thought would kill Luffy for taking such flowers was never around anymore since he got hitched to Pudding. It was all thanks to Lola stepping in and telling Sanji about Pudding feelings. Being Sanji he air-walk all the way to her home and proposed to her right there and then. He was currently raising their baby daughter with Pudding. Everybody knew Sanji next goal was to try and woo Volite, Aces great aunt. There was a betting pool to see if Sanji could convince Pudding and Volite to share him. The odd was a hundred thousand to one against him succeeding. The crew was ok with Sanji absence since he already said he was going to bring his family back to the base once his Rukia was old enough to travel.
The rest of the crew had also gone to get their loved ones to bring back to the base. It was after all the safest place in the world. Currently, the world was in a widespread war. Luffy panicked when he heard it had even spread to Alabaster. Zoro along with Chopper was sent to make sure Vivi and her father where safe and to provide what little aid they could. If need be they were to take the Poneglyph and kidnap the royal family and bring them to the base. For Foosha Village he was not worried for them at all. The first reason was simple his grandfather retired there. The second was the world war was happening on the grandline.
Jumbie call on Princess Shirahoshi to get the Seakings to move Fisherman Islands inhabits to the base as well. Shirahoshi had eaten a devil fruit. The G-hito G-Hito no Mi Fuirt able to turn her into a human woman like choppers Hito Hito no Mi. Only hers was more perfect then choppers letting her control her size. The tradeoff was she only had one transformation. From Jumbies letter Shirahoshi was super excited to see a certain rubber-man so he could fulfill a pinky promise.
Usopp had gone with his father Yasopp, and Brooks to Syrup Village to pay respects to his mothers grave. Brooks would split ways at the red line and hang out with Laboon til Ussop return to pick him up. Now that Luffy the blindest man in the world had a child Usopp wanted to confess his feelings to Kaya. Usopp hoped Kaya felt the same. He already found out her location and was determined to at least meet with her.
Chopper had sent word that Zoro along with a bunch of none combatants, the royal guard, Vivi, and Cobra were returning. It turns out that Koza had join forces with Luffys father and recruited a lot of Alabasta young and disgruntled population. Vivi was beyond pissed but felt helpless and did not want to see her kingdom fall again. King Cobra was also tired so he just gave the thrown to Koza. He was more than happy to take his precious Vivi to a known safe haven. Vivi only solace was that the innocent would be spared.
For Chopper himself went on to Drum Island. He was worried about Dr. Kureha. He was also worried about Milky but more so for Dr. Kureha. Milky was a warrior and Luffy already sent word to Zou. Zunisha walking path happened to be in line with the base entrance. it was just a matter of time before they made it to the base.
Franky, on the other hand, was headed to Water 7 to pick up his old crew and he really missed his girls. He'd be damn if Luffy was the only one hitched. He was still a little upset that Luffy married three women in one go. Another reason for him to pick up Kiwi and Mozu. Franky also wanted to see if Iceburg wanted to come along. Hell, he might just help Iceburg finish turning Water 7 into a ship and sail it back to the base. The resources an island like Water 7 could provide would be a big help. Franky knew Luffy was would not plan nor govern anybody under him. It fell to the crew.
As for the girls family and friends, only Nami had small worries about her old village but Usopp said he would check in on it when he was in the East Blue. He said he said he would bring back anybody who wanted to make the trip. With the large source of Wapolmetal Franky was able to create new ships comprise completely out of the stuff. The advanced power plants they took out of all the wrecked Pacifista over the years was enough to power six battleship size boats. Faster than anything else out there. The ships could deploy a coating and dive underwater. They all had propellers powered by Franky Motors. A Franky Custom Den Den Mushi could handle the helm and navigation. All the simple-minded crewmember need to do was input a destination. Weapons were at a minimum since every Strawhat member was the strongest weapon on board.
Dressrosa was currently under the protection of Shanks and his Crew. Luffy old Straw Hat Grand Fleet were very active working as intelligence officers for Robin. She took on the role of spymaster. When she finally sat down to look back on their adventure she noticed that a lot of the crazy life threating circumstances that Luffy put them threw could of been avoided. They always lacked relevant information on things before they rushed into them. Now that they seem to be building a nation of their own Robin wanted to keep a tab on the rest of the world. She didn't want to learn it from a News Coo. Ace's number one source for useful information was Robins office. She did not care if he read any of the reports just only that he had to put them back where he found them. If not she would pinch his still chubby body all over the place using her powers. Ace quickly learn Mama Robin was the scariest of them all.
