Ace Is Going To Be Executed?

Somewhere else in Sabaody Archipelago

On the edge of the sea, a Strawhat Pirate ship could be seen docked. They wanted to head towards Fishman Island but their ship wasn't coated yet so it was impossible. After hell broke loose on the island Rayleigh didn't have the time to coat their ship yet.

"How can we reach Fishman island now? Rayleigh hasn't even coated our ship yet!" Nami said as she frowned.

"We need to leave this place as fast as possible. We can't stay in Sabaody Archipelago for any longer, it's too unsafe and Fishman island is also not possible." Robin said as she considered their current options.

Luffy and the rest of the crew nodded as they found Robin's words truthful.

Suddenly a bird could be seen flying over the Strawhat ship Sunny Go while newspaper were in its holders at the side of its wings.

Robin waved at the bird as it came flying down and handing over a newspaper while receiving some berries.

"Why to bother reading that, its obviously going to mention us," Nami said unconcernedly.

"That's not necessarily the truth, a big commotion is going to take place soon," Robin said she read the newspaper.

"What can possibly be bigger than Luffy actually hitting a Celestial Dragon?" Nami didn't believe Robin and thought that she was spouting nonsense.

"Fire Fist Ace, a notorious pirate under the leading emperor Whitebeard Pirates is going to be executed in a month at the navy headquarters Marineford," Robin said in one breath as she frowned.

Robin had actually only joined the crew after they had met Fire Fist Ace at Alabasta so she didn't know the connection between Ace and Luffy.

But she immediately noticed the tense atmosphere and the shocked expression on Luffy and Zoro's faces.

"What happened?" Robin immediately asked concerned.

"Ace is Luffy's brother!" Zoro said with a complicated look on his face.

"Ace? Ace is going to be executed?" Luffy couldn't digest what he just heard so he just stood completely still.

Everyone looked concerned at Luffy.

"The executing is going to take place a month from!" Robin said as her eyes were bit hazy.

"A month! Where is Ace currently being held?" Luffy hurriedly asked Robin.

"If nothing out of the ordinary happens, he would be brought to impel down." Robin quietly said.

Luffy went silent for a moment before he said.

"Sorry everyone, before we leave for Fishman island there is somewhere else I need to visit."

"Okay, let's leave then!" Zoro said in a voice not up for negotiation. Everyone looked calm as if they had expected this answer from the very moment Luffy said he wanted to leave by himself.

Four silhouettes could be seen in what seemed to look like an earth prison. The marines arrested the three supernovas while the Pacifista was released of course.
