(Here we go! after a whole year of this story being discontinued, I'm finally updating this story and continuing! I've planned out 6 chapters for the end of this story. Its not set in stone though, there might be more or less chapters, I'm not sure. Lord, I'm blabbering like I used to again! enjoy the chapter!)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luffy ran out to the deck. The commanders and Whitebeard following the straw-hatted captain.

"That's Baratie! I met Sanji there!" Luffy excitedly yelled out

"Well, I guess that settles something, we're in East blue" Ace spoke out

A silence ran through the whole deck while Luffy kept looking at the floating restaurant.

"I don't think we should approach Baratie." Marco said

Luffy's head swished around and neck twisted in a way that would be impossible for everyone except the rubber boy.

"Huh? Whyyyyy? I wanna see Sanji's old mann!" Luffy whinned

"The Whitebeard pirates suddenly appearing in the East blue would be near impossible, we mostly sail around the New World after we became an emperor crew yoi" Marco explained

"That's true" Fossa spoke up "It would alarm the Marines if we're sighted in the calmest sea"

Luffy rubbed his head and thought hard

Ace swore that he saw a bit of smoke come out of his baby brother's head

"You're right" Luffy said, suddenly sounding serious, spooking the pirates a bit

The young captain's eyes widened slightly

"You absolutely cannot be seen here!" Luffy exclaimed

"Whoaaa, calm down, Lu" Ace put his hand on Luffy's shoulder

"No! You don't understand, Ace!" Luffy panicked "You cannot be seen here in the future, no matter where!"

Whitebeard narrowed his eyes at the younger

"And why is that?" Whitebeard asked "I understand not being here in East blue, but why can't we be spotted in somewhere like the Grandline?"

Luffy stiffened slightly

"I shouldn't tell you" The rubber man touched his scarred chest and looked towards the floor

A silence resounded again

Ace looked unsurely at his father

Whitebeard looked at Luffy for a few seconds before he turned towards the commanders

"Haruta, can you go call Tomei?" The emperor turned towards his son

"Okay!" The commander runs off

Luffy looks up confused, but the old man simply smiles

Haruta soon walked out with a young woman

"Hey pops! you needed me?" Tomei asks

"How long can you turn someone invisible?" Whitebeard turns towards his daughter

"Uhhh, I don't really have a time limit, as long as I am conscious, I'm able to keep someone invisible" The woman responded

"Could you turn the whole crew invisible until we go back to our time? Make Luffy the only one able to see us apart from the crew" The captain requested

Tomei nodded and tapped Whitebeard and the commanders turning them invisible

She approached Luffy and grabbed his shoulder for a few seconds

"This is going to take a while" Tomei sighed and walked off to turn the rest of the pirates invisible

"Whoa! Ace! you're like a ghost!" Luffy jumped excitedly around his older brother

"This is kinda weird" Thatch laughed akwardly looking at his half transparent hand

"It's the only way we can go around without being seen, the ship might be a problem though" Marco looked around at the Moby

"Can't we just pretend I stole your ship or something mustache man?" Luffy turned towards the captain

"Gurararara! you think I would've just let you steal my ship?"

"Oh come on! I'm pretty strong! I'm sure I could've stole your ship!" Luffy puffed his chest out.

The captain and the commanders looked at each other, having a silent conversation

"Yeah, no fucking way" Ace spoke up

"Wha-!?" Luffy exclaimed

"Can't we just pretend that Ace's little brother is a super fan and made a replica or something?" Blamenco suggested

"Better than the other idea" Thatch nodded, along with all the others

"It's decided then, the brat is a super fan of me" Whitebeard grins

Luffy simply pouts

"I'm still beating you to pirate king old man"

"Gurararara!"

--------------------------------------

The Moby Dick sailed towards reverse mountain speedily with the help of an eternal pose.

"So this is your sea, Ace?" Marco stood beside the railing along with the fire user

"Yep, this is where i'm from, my home island is way back over there though" Ace pointed vaguely north

"It's very calm"

"It's the calmest of the four seas, what did you expect?" Ace grinned

"Something wilder I guess, considering your's and your brother's personalities. Quite humble beginnings." Marco replied

Ace simply smiles and looks at the endless blue that surrounded them

To Be Continued

(Tomei is obviously not canon, just a random oc I gave the suke-suke no mi (clear-clear fruit) to for plot purposes. She probably won't be mentioned again unless I need her for the plot again. The devil fruit has also been altered for plot purposes)
