3. Baby

Maybe he was dreaming!! Maybe this wasn't a dream and maybe this was just a figment of his imagination. The huge woman came towards the small basket on which he was still lying and picked Ken in her arms.

Surprisingly her huge muscular arms seemed soft the moment she brought him up. She even flicked away the cigarette that was on her teeth to the other side of the room with her mouth. At first Ken got scared her strength might just crush him but surprisingly he was fine.

“Woman!! That cigarette better not cause a fire hazard to the house or else we would have to live among the mosquitos.”

"(&*&^*%)*%^&%&"

Ken heard her saying something which he didn't understand but among the words that came out of her mouth was 'Ace'. At that point he was sure!! This was really the One Piece world and her mentioning Ace with good emotions meant that he was still alive. He just wasn't sure on which year he was shoved into the hands of these bandits.

Has Luffy started his journey?

Or was there still time?

Will I get to see Sabo or is it still a daydream?Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Ken almost had tears in his eyes seeing him in real life. He remembered how he had tears in his eyes when he saw him die. Such emotions were rare for Ken. Only a few scenes from anime could invoke such emotions in his heart and mind.

All those memories came rushing towards him in an instant. Seeing Ken was almost on the verge of tears, Ace suddenly picked up his pace and put his own finger on his lips indicating the baby to keep silent.

"Shhh!! Shhh!!"

This made Ken surprised and then he let out a giggle. He was surprised by the sudden movement of Ace and his fear of Dadan who apparently had stopped him from visiting him. But it didn't matter to Ken. He was laughing heartily seeing the works of Ace.

After laughing for a few seconds he calmed down. The answer to the year of his birth was here. He was 1 or 2 years younger to Ace which meant that was still a long time for the wheels of time to turn into the era which would change the world forever.

And in this small island he could easily gather power and strength in order to survive the upcoming era. But first, he needed to learn the language of this world.

"What is up with this world? They use English letters in Wanted Posters but use Japanese language to speak, or are the Wanted Posters different for the Japanese version of the anime. Ahh whatever! I hope my baby brain will be smart enough to learn the language. My inclusion in this world soon throws tremors into the distant future. I need to make sure that the butterfly effect I am causing is not strong enough. May Luffy really arrive here soon after his encounter with Shanks or else it would be a disaster in many parts and I don't want to see Luffy forced to be a marine."

Ken became self aware as he had to make sure that his butterfly effect wouldn't cause huge changes and he would have to make sure that the initial development of the characters of the three brothers.

Sabo was an important member of the group and Ace needed to meet Sabo no matter what. The young baby Ken who couldn't even walk had already started planning his future and he was looking forward to the adventures he would have to go through soon.
