Chapter's Events:

—————————

"Sabo?!!"

"Sabo... It's really you!! Wait right there!!! You're alive?!! I can't believe it!!!"

At that moment, a nobleman was shocked to see Sabo. The man was middle-aged, sporting a thin mustache and dressed in an elegant and formal outfit.

"You have to come back home!!!"

Sabo ignored the man and kept running with Luffy and Ace. Ace then called out to Sabo;

"…?? Hey, Sabo!! Someone's calling for you!!"

"Who is that guy…?!" Even Luffy, with his mouth full, was distracted by the sudden interruption.

...

"What?! I'm not hiding anything!!"

"Oh... Really?" Luffy almost believed Sabo, but Ace quickly intervened:

"Don't be stupid, of course, he is!!! Let's hear it, Sabo!!"

"We shouldn't have to keep any secrets from each other, now, should we? Spill it." Ace and Luffy spoke in unison, pressing Sabo for answers.

"Just tell us already, you idiot!!! I'll kick your face in!!!"

"Guarghh!! Ahhh…!! A… All right…!! I'll talk, I'll talk!!" After Ace and Luffy nearly lost their patience, Sabo finally decided to tell them the truth.

"The son of a noble?!!"

"Who is!!?"

"I am…!!" Sabo replied.

"So?" Both Ace and Luffy nonchalantly picked their noses, as if wondering what the big deal was.

"You're the ones who wanted to know!!!" Sabo snapped.

"... The truth is, both of my real parents are still out there… I'm not a real orphan… And I wasn't born on the trash heap, either."

"The man who was trying to stop me just now was my father."

•———•———•———•———•

This exact scene left both Outlook III and Didit utterly shocked.

They couldn't believe that the Sabo from the manga was truly their son.

The truth was overwhelming. What made things even worse were the judgmental glares from the surrounding crowd, eyes filled with disdain.

"Dear, should we leave? I no longer feel comfortable here..." Didit whispered after noticing the people glaring at them with contempt.

From time to time, she overheard comments like,

"How could a mother treat her child like that?" and "They have an amazing child like Sabo, yet treat him like a dog?"

"What's wrong with these nobles? Why are they all so despicable?"

"That noble's ambition is outrageous—he wants to use his son to secure the kingdom's throne by marrying him to the princess?" someone else muttered.

The last comment made Outlook III break out into a cold sweat.

Outlook III was still trying to process the shocking truth that had just been revealed in the manga—Sabo had openly admitted that he was his biological son.

After Sabo's confession, flashbacks showed how Outlook III and his wife treated him as a child. These were Sabo's memories, explaining why he chose to run away and live in the trash heap rather than the elite district, without any regrets.

In Sabo's memories, it was revealed how his parents wanted him to study hard and grow into the perfect partner for the princess. His mother even scolded him when he clashed with a noble from the royal family and rushed to check on the noble's child instead of her own. Sabo described how they didn't care for him as their son but rather treated him like an investment project.

These flashbacks made the readers who recognized them despise Sabo's parents instantly.

"Why should we leave, my dear? This art store is the safest place in the world. No one can harm us here."

Outlook III spoke confidently. Despite being ten years younger than his manga counterpart, he had already been a noble for many years and trusted his decisions. But in truth, he never expected to witness such a day in his life.

The day when his life would be intertwined with the One Piece manga. Knowing his opportunistic personality—and his wife's similar nature—he quickly realized that they wouldn't receive an ounce of sympathy unless they adopted a new approach.

At that moment, he began speaking loudly, ensuring that the nearby readers could hear him.

"My dear… it seems we are truly blessed from above! The child you're carrying in your belly is Sabo! We've been given a chance to witness the mistakes of our future selves and correct them before they happen!"

"Rob-sama has given us another opportunity to truly understand ourselves! In this life, our son Sabo will grow up in a loving family. I will not let my son live among the garbage…"

"Just shut up!"

One of the readers interrupted Outlook III's nonsense.

"Sending him to live with Dadan would be the best thing you could do for him, you scum," another reader chimed in.

"Not having him at all would be better than him living with you," added yet another reader.

…

Not far away, in his private section, Rob, who had recently arrived, observed the scene quietly, smiling like a hawk waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

"What do you think is the role of a good mangaka, my dear?" he asked.

In his lap, Robin wore the same smile as her father on her cute face.

"Terishishi~ No doubt my father is planning something big again."

Robin laughed sweetly, fully aware of her father's abilities and the extent of his powers.

If her father told her he was a god, she would believe him without hesitation.

…

•———•———•———•———•

"This may be rude to say, but… I was always 'alone,' even though I had parents."

As Sabo said this, he remembered his father's words.

("Don't you ever go near that trash heap!! The people living there aren't human.")

("They're just pieces of trash in human form…!!")

These words made it clear to Sabo what his parents were truly like.

"The nobles always scorned and despised the trash heap… but compared to that horrible elite district, where I didn't even have room to breathe…"

"... Where my entire life was planned out for me… I'd choose the trash heap any day."

After saying that, Sabo stood up and smiled at Ace and Luffy.

"So that's the deal, huh…" Ace finally understood the whole situation.

"Ace... Luffy…!!!"

"We have to make it out to sea someday!! We'll leave this country behind… And gain our freedom!!!"

Sabo clenched his fists, expressing his dream with joy.

"I want to see the world in all its glory and write a book about all the things I discover!! If it's sailing I need to study, then I don't care how hard I have to work!!"

"We've got to get stronger and become real pirates!!!"

•———•———•———•———•

Far away from the East Blue, in the South Blue, specifically in Baterilla, Rouge gently touched the face of a smiling Sabo as he expressed his dream.

As he spoke about how his biological parents treated him, the heartbreaking sadness was evident on his face.

Rob's artistic skills far surpassed Oda's, especially when it came to drawing expressions. The manga was also colored and larger in size than the original, featuring numerous effects that could turn it into a moving video if the pages were flipped quickly.

In short, these scenes managed to reach the deepest part of Rouge's heart.

"They don't deserve a child like this… I wish he were my son~"

She knew it was a wish that could never come true, but just imagining it made her happy. If Ace, Sabo, and even Luffy were her real children, she would be willing to sacrifice her life three times over for all of them.

"At least I'm happy that my counterpart showed the world what it truly means to be a real mother."

"Not every mother can be called a true mother."

Just looking at Didit, Sabo's biological mother, made Rouge want to hit her.

…

In the art store in Baterilla, Roger shared his wife's feelings at that moment.

But his usual grin never left his face.

"Sake cups, huh? So that's how my son got his brothers?"

"Wahahaha! How interesting."
