Skypiea.
...
...
The seas had been quite rough since the war at Marineford, even though months had passed since then, and thus a year had gone by. Since then, many things had happened; while some groups remained inactive, others had been the central point of discussions in recent months.
In a small, simple fishing village located on a remote island, a boy ran through the bustling streets that morning, swiftly dodging inhabitants in front of him as he headed towards a specific place, one of the city exits.
"HEY, what do you think you're doing?!"
"You almost knocked down my stuff!"
The inhabitants, shopping at the city's market, immediately complained to the boy, bumping into them as he continued running through the island. He finally left the city and approached a house not too far away, perched on a cliff with a rocky shore below, while the sea waves crashed against those rocks.
Outside this house, there was a middle-aged man, calmly looking out to sea. The man was missing one of his arms and remained silent, just enjoying the pleasure of the sea breeze that morning.
"Uncle Rotiv! Uncle Rotiv!" A child's voice emerged in his ears as the boy who had left the town approached excitedly, interrupting the man's leisurely moment.
"Hm?" Rotiv turned to the side and saw the boy approaching with a huge smile, holding pieces of newspaper in his hand.
"Little Kim, what are you doing here? And what's that newspaper? Any interesting news?" Rotiv looked at the boy as he stopped in front of him, trying to catch his breath after running so much. "I haven't bought today's newspaper yet..." He spoke calmly.
The boy, now smiling, stepped closer to Mr. Rotiv, extending the newspaper. Rotiv seemed a bit surprised to see the front page with a pirate group spotted at sea, he couldn't hold back and began to laugh.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" The boy, curious, gave him a strange look, not thinking this was his uncle's expected reaction. "What's so funny? Aren't they the ones?"
Rotiv, with a calm tone and a knowing look, just cracked a small smile after laughing a bit more. "No, they aren't."
"You mean they're fakes?" The boy seemed very surprised by this.
"Yes, just a bunch of idiots pretending to be them. Soon, they will meet a swift end. They don't know who they're messing with. The World Government will send forces beyond what any novice pirate can handle, they will destroy them soon." He sighed, looking at the photo. "It's obvious they want fame and privileges, but at the same time, they're courting great danger."
"Really? Could they have just gained some weight?" The boy commented, confused.
"Of course not! Look at them!" The man raised his voice, frowning with a grimace, while the boy tilted his head, still confused.
"Maybe... they are their brothers?" the boy asked.
"Do you believe that?!" Said the man with a shark-toothed grin to his foolish nephew, his sister's son. He sighed before turning back to the boy. "They are just impostors..." He said.
"But it's been so long... shouldn't they have returned to the sea?" The boy said disappointedly.
"Yes... but who knows... No one knows..." Rotiv spoke calmly.
"It's ready to run now... let's do a test..." He said satisfied.
In front of him, there was a car that he himself had built. Quickly closing the hood, he was ready to get in and see if his machine really worked, looking at the car, in the glass with two leather seats, a baby's sound came from inside the car.
"Let's see if you can handle a little excitement, son," Luffy said, approaching to prepare the test of his newly built machine with his little son next to the passenger seat.
