„There won't be a next time."

...

"Honey look it's our son, he's so beautiful!"

These were the first words he heard, but he did not understand their meaning. Suddenly he felt pain, greater than what he felt at the end of the fight. The pain can be ignored, however, it was the sense of strangeness that frightened him the most.

He saw before him the faces of two unfamiliar smiling people who emanated a feeling of happiness. However, if this was to be the hereafter, he should see his parents, not the two strangers.

He began to look around, barely controlling his aching body. Noticing two tiny hands and feet, he slowly began to understand what had happened. He had died, but at the same time he had been born. Thousands of feelings began to flood his mind. Sadness at the thought that he would no longer meet his brother, fear over where he was, anger at not being able to rest after all he had suffered, and something else...

Something new.

Something he hadn't felt in so long.

Love for his parents. Hope that this new life might turn out better, that he wouldn't make the same mistakes again.

Finally, after an unbeknownst time of pondering, he fell asleep. His newborn body, was too weak to hold all these emotions any longer.

Without realizing it, his new parents were horrified by this fact.

...

"Did you get into a fight again?"

"It's their fault, they've bullied Philip once again."

"How many times have I said that with violence you will not achieve anything Richard. Their parents complained to the director, you can be expelled from the kindergarten."

"I was supposed to look at this? You know very well that the teachers won't do anything about it."

"I understand you, but violence is not the solution, not only will you make trouble for yourself, but you will only upset the other kids more, and what if they want revenge? Finally, you may lose the fight, and I can't bear it if you get hurt!"

"But I can fight, the old geezer trained me well!"

"Stop, your imaginary teacher doesn't exist! Go back to your room and rethink your behavior! Tomorrow you will visit your colleagues and apologize them!"

"You don't understand anything!" With a scream, Richard ran out of the living room.

His mother couldn't understand that her son was different. He tried to explain to her that he remembered things from his previous life, but she kept yelling at him, thinking he was making the story up.

Finally, in this new world, there were no devil fruit, pirates and navy. It was a completely different world that also had unusual things. Phones with screens that could take pictures and videos. His father laughed when Richard, seeing it for the first time, asked where the snail was. Vegapunk's head would explode if he saw all these technological wonders.

Richard - who in his previous life was called Portgas D. Ace - laughed. "Although this world is so different people here are so weak!" Continuing his training, he will become the strongest of them all, and then everyone will respect him, his family and kin.

...

Five-year-old Luke has jumped off the outdoors through the balcony again. He's annoyed that his parents won't let him eat sweets. How is his brain supposed to work without it? And he's already so close.

Today he will confirm his hypothesis, he is certainly not the only one. He has no idea how many there are or where they came from, but he knows that, like him, they were born again five years ago. He knows his brain, it wasn't an illusion or any magic trick that could fool him.

Two years ago, he saw a burst of lightning fly out of a child's hand. Although he couldn't explore it at the time, he has now finally learned where the boy lives. He will confront him and affirm that, what is his greatest fear.

If this is true, this world is in for changes. Frightening changes.

But first he has to buy some chocolate!
