Post-War Arc: EP 490-504

Post-war arc EP: 490-504


Description:

we all know that Traflgar Law took Luffy and Jinbie and aided them. so they are now on his ship. so they go to the surface to see that a marine warship was following them but it turns out to be Boa Hancock and Ivankov and the gang, they went to check on Luffy, Law indicates that luffy's condition is stabilized but he is still very injured. later on Boa Hancock says that she will take Luffy to Amazon Lily (to her island) and keep him there in secret away from the marine so they can recover.

of cousrse the islands that were under white beards protection (and his home island) has been attacked. while the navy thought that the pirates will clam down after White Beard's death but it was completely the opposite.


when arriving there, the old woman refuses to let the other men into the island so she suggested that they take their ship and go to the gulf of the island.

so luffy wakes up, and he is destroying everything unconsciously, and all what on his mind is to know where is ace? later on he comes back to his senses and Jinbie was there with him, so he asks, "Ace's death is a dream right?" (not its not T^T XC) he keeps hitting his head trying to forget whats happening.

----Luffy's Past Starts Here----

So its all starts when Garp takes Luffy to the Dadan Family up in the forest, and its where he meets Ace (10 years old). Luffy keep chasing ace and after three months of chasing Ace, Luffy discovers the Grey Terminal which is a lawless zone and basically a junk yard. Next, its where Luffy sees Ace and his friend Sabo, and they both have been stealing from pirates to save up for their pirate fund to sail and become pirates. Luffy sees the location of their treasure so they have to shut him up, but a bunch of pirates comes looking for Ace for he stole from them recently, they capture Luffy, while Ace and Sabo run to change the location of their treasure because they expeted that Luffy is gonna tell them about it location. but it turns out differently, Luffy was beaten up by the pirates yet he refused to say the treasures's whereabouts. when Ace and Sabo knows about that, they run to save luffy and kicked the pirates' asses. Sabo stays at Ace and Luffy's place because its dangerous to go around the Grey Terminal, so they all become stronger and close friends at that time. 

They go to the city to sell their goods and some man stops Sabo but they run away, and then Ace and Luffy asks Sabo about more information, and it turns out that Sabo is the son of a noble family but he ran away because his parents were mean and all what they care about was the money and status. so Garp pays a visit, and the three of them later build a tree house more like a hideout.

Luffy makes a challenge that who ever kills the great tiger gets to be the captain but they meet an old guy who was a captain of his own pirate crew and he actually took on Gol D. Roger. when Ace heard that he goes away, and Sabo explains that Ace's father is Gol D. Roger. Luffy gets all excited and all and Ace gets all mad.

Luffy was missing for a week, but it turns out he was training with that old man. later on Ace asks the old man if he hates Gol D. Roger, but his reply was surprising to Ace, for he had said that he was grateful for meeting and challenging him and that Roger spared his life. and he asks what he would think if Roger had a son, he replays that the kid's life would be difficult and hard and the fact he is roger son will haunt him and stuff, so Ace challenges him in a fight and he looses so the old man shows him that he is building a ship and asks them for their help so he can find his crew. they agree.

The old man says that there is a much more important thing than strength to become a captain, but he forgets, later on at night Ace goes to the old man and asks him about it, but he says that he does not know and he is still looking for that answer however its about the crew's approval in other meaning the crew's willingness to call you their captain.

They finished his ship, but before he leaves they have to fight the king tiger, when the fight start, Ace begin the attack and everyone fights on their own but at the end they all fight together and win following ace's idea. After that Sabo and Luffy says that Ace should be the captain but Ace's refuse and says that we all did it together, and the old man leaves.

The (ASL)'s hideout gets destroyed by a storm so they have to get some materials to build it, they go to the Grey Terminal. the Bluejame pirates captures Sabo, Ace and Luffy appears to help him but they get captured and Sabo's father appears, and he is mad at Luffy and Ace for tempting Sabo to run away but Sabo said that he ran on his own and stuff. Sabo's father orders the pirates to take those children away but Sabo make a deal with his father that he is gonna listen to him if he let Ace and Luffy go away.

So the pirates take Luffy and Ace to their place and tells them to work for them, Luffy refuses but ace agrees, they give offer them a job to deliver some boxes.

Back to Sabo, he is at the police office and his father is telling to say that Luffy and Ace are the ones who made him a delinquent obviously he refuses and his father threatens him but Sabo still denies it. so his father bribe the officer to forget all of that. later on Sabo finds out he has an adopted brother, and the town is all acting weird, since a celestial dragon is coming to town, and they are gonna burn down the Grey Terminal for the Celestial Dragon arrival and that explains the boxes that Ace and Luffy were carrying, it had explosions in them. Sabo runs off to confirm the news he just heard.

The whole town is so calm about it, and the he asks an old man and he explains that the reason why they are all acting like that its for the news doesn't reach outside and they are so much better from the people who are gonna die at the Grey Terminal.

Sabo is chased by the police but he has to tell the people at the Grey Terminal and tell them about the fire but he fails.

The fire starts and the guards close the gates. people at the Grey Terminal will die with the trash, even Bluejame the one who actually made a deal with the King that he will burn down the Grey Terminal in exchange for noble status. so he chase down Ace and Luffy to take their treasure.

while Sabo is trying to run off but he is helped by Monkey D. Dragon, and he says that he is ashamed he is born in this corrupted country and his words inspires him.

Bluejame was about to kill Luffy but Ace uses Haki, then Dadan comes along to order her gang to take Luffy, Ace refuses to leave so he and Dadan fights Bluejame.

People at the Grey Terminal are saved by Monkey D. Dragon, Kuma and Ivan.

Next day the whole people are gathered at the dock to greet the Celestrial Dragon. Sabo thinks its the perfect time to run because everyone is busy. so he sails off but the effin Celestial Dragon blow off his ship because he had a pirate flag and he is a mere commoner dares to sail near his ship (fu)

back at Dadan Place, Luffy was so sad that Ace hasn't come back, but then he appears with Dadan, later on they heard about Sabo death and get a letter that Sabo wrote before sailing, that explains why he sailed off early and he hopes he would see them out in the sea someday :(

Tears were shed, Ace and Luffy promise that they will their lives without regrets and Ace promise that he will never die.

Together they train harder and become stronger. Ace sets sail when he is 17 (Luffy was 14)

Three years later Luffy sets sail as well. and the first thing he do is defeating the sea monster that took shanks's arm.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Opinion:

1. best flashback. i would lie if i did not cry :(

2. i think this flash back appeared after the marine ford arc which is the best timing, because if it appeared in the middle of the marine ford arc it would be just distracting.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Characters:

Ace: he was strong and determine when he was young, he resembled his father in many ways, judging
 from this flashback. he could have been the pirate king, i swear. another thing about Ace is that he was tough and hard to deal with but Luffy wanted to be his friend anyway, so after the pirate incident he asked Luffy why does he want to be his friend so badly? Luffy says that he does not want to be lonely. and this made Luffy not just a friend who would tag along with them, but actually he became their brother.

Sabo: he is the wisest. he knew how to act when situations were hard. he did not see Luffy as a drag but he admired him and believed he would be stronger. Sabo is an amazing character and he did not die i tell you, HE DID NOT DIE. however if he did not die, why didn't he show up to save Ace?

Luffy: he was determine in being friends with Ace and Sabo, he was faithful and he is pretty much the Luffy we know. we can see how he started his fighting techniques in the flash back. luffy arrived to the Dadan Family after the incident with Shanks and all, so he chased Ace, and did not get all mad because it was not worth it at all, also

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Predictions:

1. i believe that Sabo did not die, and Monkey D. Dragon used his powers to save him and took him back to his ship. because in the episode (504 i think) Ivan asked for a doctor and the one who would be injured must be him. or Dragon? we dont know. but if we assume that Sabo is alive, then why didn't he showed up to save Ace? where was he? In what situation he was in that he could break that brotherly bond and not save his brother?

Well, only time would tell.

2. i do not know how will Luffy recover from this shock but i bet it will be so so so difficult and overwhelming, i mean Ace was always there for him and he promised he would not die.

- in Marine Ford arc Luffy used Haki to stop the navy from executing Ace. (EP478) (le cries).

- in the Post War arc in the flash back Ace used Haki to save Luffy from Bluejame.

this is so :(

3. i still cannot figure out how will the timeskip occur or how will the crew will meet up.
