Luffy charges forward with fists raised, shouting "GOMU GOMU NO..." as Ace counters with a pistol shot. The impact sends Luffy flying back with a pained "UNGHH!" while a bystander yells "GUEH HH!!" Sabo watches from the side, asking "WHAT DO YOU THINK..." Luffy snaps, "...YOU'RE EVEN DOINGI!!!" Ace declares "PISTOL!!!" In the next exchange, Luffy demands "ONE MORE ROUND!!" as Ace fires again with "PISTOL!! DON!!" Luffy groans "UGH HH... IT'S NOT WORKING PROPERLY!" Sabo comments, "IS THAT ABILITY OF YOURS REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHINGI AND MATCH! ACE IS THE WINNER!!" A voice explains the pistol's limit: "SORRY, BUT IT'S ONLY 100 ROUNDS PER DAY PER PERSON. TRY AGAIN TOMORROW." Luffy lies on the ground clutching his stomach while Ace stands over him and Sabo points at a sign.

Luffy clenches his fists and declares, "WHEN YOU'RE TEN, WE'LL BOTH BE THIRTEEN. COME ON, LET'S GO CATCH DINNER." Sabo points at a scoreboard and replies, "WELL, WHEN I'M TEN YEARS OLD, I'LL BEAT BOTH OF YOU UP!!" and "AND AS USUAL, LUFFY'S LOST TO ME AND ACE 50 TIMES EACH. ME AND ACE ARE AT 24-26. DAMMIT!!" The three boys then run through the forest carrying long pipes. Sabo asks, "CROCODILE SURE IS TASTY! HOW DOES CROCODILE SOUNDI" Luffy grins and answers, "ALL RIGHT!" Sabo warns Luffy, "TRY NOT TO GET EATEN THIS TIME, ALL RIGHT, LUFFYI! IT WAS ONLY BLIND LUCK THAT IT SWALLOWED YOU WHOLE LAST TIME!" Narration boxes describe their daily training: "...HELPED THESE BOYS TO GROW STRONGER WITH EACH PASSING DAY. THE HARSH ENVIRONMENT OF MOUNT COLUBO..."

Narration explains the geography: "...BUT IT IS SEPARATED FROM GREY TERMINAL BY A MIGHTY, IMPASSABLE STONE WALL. THE ONLY WAY THROUGH THIS WALL IS THROUGH A MIGHTY DOOR KNOWN ONLY AS THE GREAT GATE..." Grey Terminal is shown as a massive trash heap. Residents scavenge and sell recycled goods. Voices call out "ALL RIGHT!! TREASURE-HUNTING TIME!!" "GUYS!! THE TRASH IS HERE!!!" and "HEY, WHAT'S THAT YOU'VE GOT THEREI IT'S CROCODILE SKIN. I'M GONNA GO SELL IT." Another resident asks, "WHAT KIND OF FOOD WILL SHOW UP TODAYI!" while trash rustles with "RUSTLE RUSTLE". Further narration notes that twice a day trash is gathered from across the land and that residents never enter the city itself.

The boys reach the Outskirts where the scent of the trash heap lingers. Narration states: "THIS IS THE 'OUTSKIRTS', WHERE THE SCENT OF THE TRASH HEAP CAN STILL BE DETECTED IN THE AIR." A voice warns, "IF THEY CATCH YOU, YOUR LIVES ARE FORFEIT! AFTER SUNDOWN, THE TRASH HUNTERS WILL BE PATROLLING THE STREETS! DON'T FORGET..." The group passes through the Great Gate into a wide street. Narration continues: "UPON PASSING THROUGH THE GREAT GATE, THEY EMERGE ONTO A WIDE STREET, POPULATED WITH PASSERS-BY FROM THE CITY ITSELF." In the Central District a hooded figure shouts "SHUT YOUR FACES, HOODLUMS!!" while another voice calls "WHAT'S THAT YOU'VE GOT THEREI! LET'S SEE IT!!" and "OI!! YOU'RE FROM THE TRASH HEAP, AIN'T THAT RIGHTI" The boys stand together as locals react with surprise.

A grand narration describes the Goa Kingdom: "IT IS SAID TO BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LAND IN ALL OF EAST BLUE, UTTERLY FREE OF ALL TRASH." The name of this land is the Goa Kingdom. In this country, all that is unnecessary is carefully separated out; it could be termed a prime example of a successfully segregated society. The narration continues that the Grey Terminal is also a part of this kingdom. A wide map of the Goa Kingdom labels the Palace, Elite District, Central District, Outskirts, Grey Terminal, Mt. Colbo, and Fuchsia Village, noting that Fuchsia Village is where Luffy was born, though overlooked by many.

In the Goa Kingdom Central District, chaos erupts as three boys flee across rooftops and through the streets. A furious voice yells, "SOMEBODY CATCH THOSE LITTLE BRATS!!!" and "LEAVE WITHOUT PAYING, WILL YOUI!I!" The boys—Luffy in a straw hat, Ace with a pipe, and Sabo in a top hat and goggles—leap between buildings amid explosions and debris. "WHAT DID I TELL YAI!I!" Ace shouts. "MAN, THAT WAS GOOD!" Sabo replies. Angry pursuers scream, "THEY'RE KNOWN CRIMINALS!! WHY DID YOU LET THEM IN THE FIRST PLACEI!I!" "IT'S THAT DAMN TRIO OF KIDS AGAIN!!" "SOMEBODY HOLD THEM DOWN!!!" "DON'T LET THOSE THREE BRATS GET AWAY!!!" Townspeople react with shock as the trio escapes through windows and across signs, with sound effects like "GASHAN!!" "BOYON!!" and "BAFUN!!"

A large man in a feathered hat spots the goggled boy and shouts in shock, "SABO... IT'S REALLY YOU!! WAIT RIGHT THERE!!! YOU'RE ALIVE!! I BELIEVE IT!!! SABOI!!" The boy in goggles panics, thinking, "...!! HE MUST BE MISTAKING ME FOR SOMEONE ELSE! LET'S GO!!!" Luffy yells, "HEY, SABO!! SOMEONE'S CALLING YOU!!!" Sabo replies, "WAIT!!" The boys continue fleeing as the shop owner laments the damage: "THEY SEEM TO HAVE LEFT SOME KIND OF NOTE....!!" The note reads, "WILL PAY WHEN I FIND TREASURE LUFFY" with the quote "WHEN I FIND TREASURE"...II! The owner adds, "I MEAN, WE'RE FOUR STORIES UP! TO THINK THAT THEY WOULD ESCAPE OUT THE WINDOW... THEY'VE COST US 26 BOWLS OF RAMEN, AND A PANE OF GLASS TO BOOT."

Luffy insists, "DON'T BE STUPID, OF COURSE HE IS!!! LET'S HEAR IT, SABO!!" Sabo replies, "OH... REALLYI" Ace demands, "WHATI! I'M NOT HIDING ANYTHING!!" Close-ups show Luffy and Ace glaring as Luffy says, "WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO KEEP ANY SECRETS FROM EACH OTHER, NOW, SHOULD WEI SPILL IT." Sabo, sweating, is pressed: "WHO ISI! I AM...!!!" He reveals, "THE SON OF A NOBLEI!" Under threat, Sabo cries, "...GUARGHH!! AHHH...!!!... ALL RIGHT...!! I'LL TALK, I'LL TALK!!! JUST TELL US ALREADY, YOU IDIOT!!! I'LL KICK YOUR FACE IN!!!" In a flashback, young Sabo stands in the forest: "...AND I WASN'T BORN ON THE TRASH HEAP, EITHER....THE TRUTH IS, BOTH OF MY REAL PARENTS ARE STILL OUT THERE... I'M NOT A REAL ORPHAN... THE MAN WHO WAS TRYING TO STOP ME WAS JUST MY FATHER." Ace and Luffy react with shock as Ace yells, "YOU'RE THE ONES WHO WANTED TO KNOW!!!" Luffy asks, "SOI"

Sabo stands with Luffy and Ace in the forest clearing. A flashback shows a nobleman confronting young Sabo. The nobleman says, "IF YOU WERE BORN INTO A NOBLE HOUSEHOLD... WHY WOULD YOU END UP ON THE TRASH HEAPI" Sabo replies, "I'M ACTUALLY PRETTY SHOCKED BY THIS." The noble continues, "WELL, IF YOU'RE SORRY, THEN THAT'S FINE!! I FORGIVE YOU." Sabo answers, "I'M SORRY I HAD TO LIE TO YOU." An unseen speaker warns, "NOW LISTEN, SABO MY BOY." In the present, Sabo recounts his past. His mother cries, "MOTHER...I! HE REALLY HURT ME...!!" while his father insists, "YOU GOT IN A FIGHT WITH A ROYALI!" The nobleman declares, "LOOK, SABO, I'M TIRED OUT FROM A HARD DAY'S WORK!!" and adds, "YOU HAVE TO GROW UP TO BE THE KIND OF MAN WHO CAN MARRY THE DAUGHTER OF A ROYAL FAMILY." Sabo explains his parents' pressure and how they never cared about him, only family status.

Sabo continues his story, describing how nobles scorned the trash heap district. He says, "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..." and "...WHERE MY WHOLE DAMN LIFE WAS PLANNED OUT FOR ME... I'D TAKE THE TRASH HEAP ANY DAY." The nobleman sneers, "THE PEOPLE LIVING THERE AREN'T HUMAN." and "DON'T YOU EVER GO NEAR THAT TRASH HEAP!!" Sabo recalls, "THIS MAY BE KIND OF RUDE TO YOU GUYS, BUT... I WAS ALWAYS 'ALONE' EVEN THOUGH I HAD PARENTS." In the present, Sabo tells Luffy and Ace, "WE HAVE TO MAKE IT OUT TO SEA SOMEDAY!! WE'LL LEAVE THIS COUNTRY BEHIND......AND GAIN OUR FREEDOM!!!" Ace and Luffy listen intently. Sabo concludes, "...SO THAT'S THE DEAL, HUH..." Luffy shouts excitedly, "WE'VE GOT TO GET STRONGER, AND BECOME REAL PIRATES!!!" and declares his dream to sail the world and write a book of his findings.

Luffy stands on a rocky outcrop and shouts, "I'M GONNA BECOME A PIRATE, BEAT EVERY LAST PERSON WHO STANDS IN MY WAY......AND EARN MYSELF THE KIND OF GLORY THAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF!! ONLY THEN WILL MY LIFE HAVE BEEN WORTH LIVING!!!" Ace grins widely and replies, "I DON'T NEED YOU TO TELL ME THAT!!" He then declares with fierce determination, "I'LL BECOME A GREAT PIRATE AND PROVE I'M BETTER THAN THEM ALL!!! I DON'T CARE IF THE WHOLE WORLD REFUSES TO ACCEPT ME... THEY CAN HATE ME ALL THEY LIKE!!!" Luffy pumps his fist and yells, "I'M GONNA...!!!!" and "I WON'T RUN FROM ANYBODY!!! I'LL NEVER LOSE!!! I DON'T CARE IF THEY END UP TERRIFIED OF ME!!" He adds, "I'M JUST GONNA MAKE SURE THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS MY NAME!!!" The three boys stand together on the cliff overlooking the forest as their dreams align.

Luffy and Ace stare in shock, both exclaiming "HUHII!" The boys burst into laughter. Sabo laughs, "AHAHAHA! MAN, YOU'RE ONE CRAZY GUY!! YOU'RE ONE TO KEEP AN EYE ON, AND THAT'S FOR SURE!!" Luffy laughs heartily, "AHAHAHA HAHAH!" Ace smirks. Luffy suggests, "WHATI YOU GUYS SHOULD JOIN MY SHIP!!" Sabo replies, "...YEAH, THAT COULD BE AN ISSUE. I ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA BE MY NAVIGATOR, SABO." Ace questions, "...BUT ISN'T IT GONNA BE A PROBLEM IF ALL THREE OF US WANT TO BE CAPTAINI" Luffy notices something and says, "DID YOU KNOW, YOU GUYSI" as Sabo discovers, "AHH! YOU STOLE SOME OF DADAN'S BOOZE!" The three sit around sake cups on a rock in the clearing. Sabo suggests, "WELL, WE CAN DECIDE THE DETAILS WHEN THE TIME COMES. WHO KNOWS, MAYBE WE'LL ALL END UP FORMING OUR OWN SEPARATE CREWS!!"

Young Ace, Sabo, and Luffy stand together as they prepare to exchange sake cups. Ace declares, "...BUT THE BOND OF BROTHERHOOD WE SHARE WILL NEVER DIE!!" Sabo adds, "WHEN WE BECOME PIRATES, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO END UP ON THE SAME CREW..." Luffy blurts out, "BROTHERSI!" A voice explains, "IF YOU EXCHANGE DRINKS, THEN YOU CAN BECOME BROTHERS." Ace continues firmly, "NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE, OR WHAT WE DO......THIS IS ONE BOND WE CAN NEVER BREAK...!!" Luffy shouts in excitement, "REALLYI!!" They raise their cups and clash them together with a loud impact, yelling "...ARE BROTHERS!!" and "YEAH!!!" as Ace finishes, "STARTING TODAY, WE..." The scene shifts to a chaotic brawl where the three boys fight alongside and against rough-looking pirates and bandits in a ruined town street, weapons swinging and debris flying.

The boys tumble through the streets in a wild chase, barrels and water splashing everywhere as they laugh and run from angry pursuers. A massive crowd of furious bandits and pirates surges after them, shouting and swinging weapons. Luffy, Ace, and Sabo leap from a collapsing bridge high above a ravine, plummeting into the water below with huge splashes. Close-up panels show the soaked boys grinning wildly with joy, bubbles rising around them. In the final panel a pistol fires, the bullet streaking through the air.

Inside a wooden building, young Luffy stands with a bandaged head while a smiling woman in a spotted headscarf adjusts something on his outfit; nearby Garp looms angrily in the background. Separate panels show a young Boa Hancock waving with a smile, Luffy laughing, and Garp fuming. The scene jumps to a jungle where Luffy, Ace, and Sabo battle fierce animals including a giant snake and a tiger; the tiger lies defeated on the ground. The page ends with Garp roaring in rage while the boys continue their adventures.

A large man holds up a sign reading "WE'RE MOVING OUT AS..." while shouting furiously. The boys ride a massive falling tree or structure as it crashes through the forest. They stand on a high wooden platform overlooking a burning tower in the distance. Luffy, Ace, and Sabo run through the jungle and fight off more bandits and animals. Final panels show the three boys laughing heartily with wide-open mouths as chaos continues around them.

A furious nobleman in a top hat towers over the scene, shouting at the children. "SABO IS MY OWN FLESH AND BLOOD!!! IT IS THE DUTY OF EVERY CHILD TO LIVE HIS LIFE ACCORDING TO THE WISHES OF THE PARENTS WHO BROUGHT HIM INTO THE WORLD!!! HOW DARE YOU URCHINS CONVINCE MY SABO TO RUN AWAY FROM HOME!!" Bluejam's pirates loom behind him. The noble continues, "GIVE HIM BACK! TRY SPEAKING SENSE, URCHINS." Luffy and Ace glare back in rage. "GIVE SABO BACK!!!" someone yells. Bluejam snarls, "FILTHY PIECES OF TRASH... IS IT MY FORTUNE YOU ARE AFTERI!" The noble snaps, "ONE DAY..." as the confrontation escalates. Sabo stands defiant. The noble roars, "I'LL HEAR NO MORE FROM YOU!!!" while Sabo retorts, "STOP THIS ALREADY!!...THEY DIDN'T CONVINCE ME TO RUN AWAY FROM HOME!! I RAN AWAY BECAUSE I WANTED TO!!!" Bluejam wipes his cheek in disgust, declaring, "YOU MANAGED TO GET THE BLOOD OF THOSE FILTHY TRASHHEAP URCHINS ON MY CHEEK! HOW DISGUSTING... I WILL HAVE TO CLEAN IT THOROUGHLY... USELESS PIRATES!! BE MORE CAREFUL HOW YOU DEAL WITH THOSE BRATS!!"

The noble's wife pleads with Bluejam, "...HOLD ON A MINUTE!! BLUEJAM! FATHER! I GIVE UP! I'LL DO AS YOU SAY! BUT OF COURSE, SIR. YOU HAVE PAID US WELL, AFTER ALL. I'LL TAKE CARE OF THESE URCHINS. THEY WON'T BE BOTHERING YOUR DEAR LITTLE BOY AGAIN. I LEAVE THE REST TO YOU, PIRATES." Sabo screams in desperation, "I'M BEGGING YOU... THEY MEAN MORE TO ME THAN ANYTHING... THEY'RE MY BROTHERS!!! JUST PLEASE... DON'T HARM ACE AND LUFFY!!! I'LL DO EVERYTHING YOU TELL ME...!!! I'LL LIVE MY LIFE HOWEVER YOU WANT!!!" Ace and Luffy shout, "SABO!!" The noble turns away coldly. Sabo runs toward the pirates, yelling, "SABO!!! STOP!!!" Ace cries out, "SABO!!" The group watches in shock as Sabo walks off with the pirates. Voices call after him, "SABO!!! ARE YOU GOING TO LET IT END HEREI!! WE'RE ALL GOING TO BECOME FREE MEN, AREN'T WEI! GET AWAY FROM THOSE GUYS!! WE'LL BE FINE, YOU HEARI!!!...OI...I! WHERE ARE YOU GOINGI!!!"
