Chapter Events:
—————————
("Ace… Luffy… Are you both safe, right?")
("I miss you both so much… This place feels like a birdcage…")
Inside his noble family's palace, Sabo silently muttered to himself.
He stared through the window, now boarded with wooden planks to prevent his escape, just as he used to do in the past.("I don't think I can endure a life surrounded by the stench of these people…")
("What is freedom, really? Where can I find it?")
At that moment, Sabo seriously started contemplating becoming a pirate and setting out to sea.
…
[Today marks the arrival of the World Nobles in the Goa Kingdom, traveling all the way from the Grand Line.]
[Preparations were in full swing for a grand ceremony to honor their arrival.]
Suddenly, a crowd of nobles noticed a small vessel departing out to sea, shocking them all.
"Wait… Someone's sailing a boat out to sea!"
"Get back here!! You're in the way of the ceremony!!"
"Is that a fishing boat?! I can see a child on board!!"
"…!! A child?!"
"Whose child is that?! Can anyone tell?!!"
The nobles were utterly baffled.
Meanwhile, Sabo was in high spirits, feeling the excitement of sailing today.
"What beautiful weather…!! The perfect day to head out to sea!!!" Sabo gripped his hat as he declared this.
His pirate flag fluttered in the breeze, emblazoned with an 'S' over two crossed bones.

In the manga, the Goa Kingdom and its nobles were preparing to celebrate the arrival of the Celestial Dragons.
However, in this reality, the Goa Kingdom and its nobles were preparing to cross the Yellow River.
Dragon sent them to the afterlife in one swift motion, and now he wished to send them on their way once more.
In the Sorbet Kingdom, Dragon stared with deep hatred at the manga scenes he had just caught up on.
"He's just a child… Why such cruelty?" he said, gritting his teeth.
"This is unbearable…" Garp had a similar reaction to the scene from the manga, though he appeared more distracted by what he had just learned.
"Tell me that what you did in Goa was just a joke… Right?"
"I wiped them all out. Why would I joke about something like that?" Dragon confirmed the truth.
Garp's brow twitched upon hearing this.
Paa!!
"Why the hell did you do that?! That's mass genocide! What were you thinking?! Are you insane?!"
Garp's eyes burned with rage as he glared at Dragon, who remained unmoved by his actions.
Crocodile, Ivankov, Kuma, Bonney, and Inazuma all stared at Dragon with expressions of utter shock that they could not hide.
It felt like the shock of a lifetime for them… Not that those nobles didn't deserve death, but they never expected Dragon to take the initiative and eradicate them all in one decisive move.
"I've always wanted to do this… I grew up there, dealing with those rotten nobles, all of them corrupt to the core with no hope of change. Sabo's words helped me remember an old promise I made to myself when I was just a kid."
"Back then, after being beaten by a noble over a loaf of bread, I swore I would kill them all one day."
"It turns out today is that day."
Dragon looked deeply into his father's furious eyes before adding,
"As the leader of the Revolutionary Army, I've decided to cleanse my hometown of its filth."
"The Goa Kingdom will no longer be a kingdom for nobles, but for the people from now on."
"Of course, before I acted, I asked Rob for permission."
Hearing this, Garp's tense brow softened slightly.
Yet, despite that, his anger did not subside in the least… Killing so many people, whether they were nobles or commoners, good or bad, was a grave crime, one he did not wish to see his son commit.
"My duty as the Revolutionary Army leader is to take responsibility for my actions."
"The next massacre I'll commit will be against them."
Dragon pointed at the Celestial Dragons who mercilessly destroyed Sabo's ship, shattering the dreams of an innocent child whose only crime was wanting to be free.
Seeing this, Garp felt sadness creeping in, his anger slowly fading away. Eventually, he sighed in sorrow.
"You're the leader… You can do as you wish."
…

"They shot the fishing boat!!!"
The nobles of Goa witnessed the Celestial Dragon blowing up Sabo's ship without mercy.
"Sabo!!!" Dogura cried out in alarm at the sight.
"Is the kid alright?!"
"He angered the Tenryuubito!!"
…
"Ughhhh!!"
"The boat's on fire…!!! Why did they do that all of a sudden?!" Sabo struggled desperately to extinguish the flames engulfing his small boat, but it was no use.
"Saint Jalmac… There's a child on board!!!"
One of the Celestial Dragon's guards tried to save Sabo, but it didn't stop the Celestial Dragon from firing another shot.
"He was flying a pirate flag. That makes him a pirate, child or not."
"And besides, that filthy commoner had the nerve to obstruct my ship!!!"
This time, Sabo's ship was blown to pieces in the sea.
Sabo's flag burned along with his hat.
"Hey… What was that ship just now?!!"
"This is the day of the grand ceremony…!"
"We can't possibly afford to displease the Tenryuubito!!"
"Move the boat wreckage out of their way, quickly!!!"
•———•———•———•———•
Marijoa, the Domain of the Gods:
At that moment, the Celestial Dragons stared at the scene in silent shock, especially Saint Jalmac, who wasn't sure whether to cry or laugh.
"I killed Sabo… No, my counterpart killed Sabo! This is unbelievable!"
Saint Jalmac's angry and stunned voice snapped the Celestial Dragons out of their stupor.
"You fool! Why would you do something so inhumane?!"
"Do you realize the mistake you've made?!"
"You killed Sabo without mercy!"
"Sabo was Luffy and Ace's brother!"
"Oh my God! So that's why Sabo hasn't appeared since the beginning of the manga! Turns out that scum Jalmac killed him!"
"And for what?! Just because he sailed near your ship? Damn you!"
"Stop it, all of you! Why are you cursing me?! I'm just as furious with my counterpart as you are! I have no idea how this happened!"
Saint Jalmac felt wronged. He genuinely wanted to see his counterpart in the manga, but not like this.
To be the main culprit in killing one of the key characters, and even one of his personal favorites, hurt him deeply.
Seeing the commotion among the Celestial Dragons, the Holy Knights were speechless.
"Don't you think, fellows, that they're slowly forgetting their true nature?"
Garling looked at his holy knights and said with a mocking smile.
…
"What did he do to deserve such a fate?"
In Ohara, Robin tried to hold back her tears, but she couldn't. She looked at her father with a pained expression and asked.
"He did nothing. He just wanted to escape the birdcage and fly free."
"Dad, I hate the Celestial Dragons. Do such ugly creatures really exist in our world?" she asked, tears welling up in her eyes.
Rob gently wiped her tears and said, "No, my dear, such hideous creatures don't exist in our world. As far as I'm concerned, they were sentenced to oblivion long ago."
Hearing this, Robin's sweet smile returned to her face.
"That's a relief! So, when Sabo is reborn, he'll be free, right?"
Rob nodded with a smile. "Yes, he'll be free and happy."
…
In Baterilla, Rouge felt overwhelming sadness when she saw this scene.
She didn't notice it until the tears began to flow.
"Why? Just… why does this world keep destroying everything pure…"
Suddenly, as she wept, she felt a strange warmth in her belly, as if it was releasing a comforting sensation.
"Ace?"
Rouge was surprised by this new feeling, something she had never felt, not even with Ace.
When she focused a bit, she noticed her belly was heavier than it had been the day before.
"This can't be right…?"
When she used Observation Haki to scan her womb, she almost fainted from the shock.
She discovered she was pregnant with two instead of one.
