Chapter 88 - Sabo wakes up

When Soren got back to where Dragon was told to wait he could see Dragon looking over Luffy. Soren then walked up behind him and spoke.

[Why do you choose to stay out of his life?]: soren

Dragon quickly turned around only to meet with Soren wearing a Black trench coat with Black pants and a Blue shirt, this was all accompanied by a White mask with Teal markings.

[What is this outfit?]: dragon

Soren took off his mask and Dragon watched as it disappeared into thin air, and before any questions could rise Soren spoke about the current situation.

[We should hurry and go see what's wrong with Sabo]: soren

Dragon snapped out of his daze and started to bring Soren to his hidden ship. When Soren and Dragon made it to the place where the ship was docked Soren could see that it wasn't a big ship nor was it flashing any insignia, the ship was just big enough to fit 4-8 people.

[It will take us 3 days to get to our base, I want you to promise to keep the area disclosed]: dragon

Dragon told Soren that all the information he was about to find out needed to be kept with utmost secrecy, even though Soren already knew this he decided to keep a secret.

[No need to worry… I have never told secrets to those I have not deemed worthy to know said secrets]: soren

Dragon still felt wary about letting Soren know where the base was but decided that Sabo was more important, Dragon then started to disembark the ship from the dock and set sail towards the Revolutionary Armies base of operations. It was also at this time that the System sounded out inside of Soren's mind.

{DING!... HIDDEN MISSION STARTED…(Save Sabo) HOST HAS TO BRING (Sabo) BACK FROM HIS SUBCONSCIOUS WORLD…}

Soren was a bit surprised by the System ringing out because he had only been training and did nothing major for 6 years, so he only ever heard the system when he was checking his status. Soren checked all the requirements to the mission and felt happy when he saw the rewards, the only problem was the backlash if he doesn't save Sabo.

{Mission- Save Sabo :Rank: S+

Rewards: System Points: 400.000, Original Ō Wazamono sword, Random Devil Fruit

Fail Consequences: Host will not be able to Train for 3 years, System will not be available to Host for 10 years, reduction of All of Host points, Sabo dies}

Soren was surprised that the Rewards and Consequences for this mission were Big for the rank level. This made Soren think that Sabo's condition was worse than he originally thought, Soren then spent the rest of the trip in Ki meditation to bring up his power.

[Soren, were here]: dragon

Dragon and Soren had just arrived after a 3 day trip to the Revolutionary Army, over this 3 day period of time Dragon tried to get to know Soren to try and grasp his thought process, but all Dragon could get was his name. Soren then came out of the cabin, stretching his arms into the air, Dragon saw this and only thought that Soren was too careless, Dragon thought that if he had any intentions of killing Soren that due to Soren's carelessness Soren would have died more than 100 times.

[So where is Sabo? I want to see him right away]: soren

Dragon then took Soren to where Sabo and the rest of the Revolutionary Army were, as Dragon walked through the base with Soren following behind him they all thought Dragon had left to get a doctor. What the group of Rebels didn't know was that Soren was Sabo's previous teacher and was only here to see if he could save Sabo.

[This is Sabo's room… He still has yet to show any sign of waking up]: RA doctor

Soren and Dragon entered Sabo's room, and when everyone saw Dragon and saw that he was accompanied by a stranger they had questions, but before they could ask those questions Soren spoke up.

[Everyone will leave this room and let me try to help Sabo through this]: soren

Everyone had questioning looks but did as the stranger said and left the room, the only people left in the room were Soren, Dragon and Sabo. Soren then turned to Dragon and said.

[That means you too… Don't worry, I will bring him through this]: soren

Dragon then gave Soren a look before he turned around and left the room just like the others, and now only Soren and Sabo were left, Soren walked over to Sabo's side and put his hand on his forehead.

[Strange… He is not sick… So it is as I thought, Sabo is going through a deep Subconscious break]: soren

Soren then leaned in towards Sabo's ear and started speaking.

[Sabo… You dare not greet your Sensei when he comes to visit?]: soren

Soren gave a slight chuckle, for it was only words that he thought would not work even in a hundred years, but something shocked Soren when Sabo started to sweat and mumble some words that not even Soren could understand.

[Is my voice like some kind of activator?]: soren

Soren then started to talk once more.

[Sabo… Do you remember the time we first met? Misha and I dropped in on You, Ace and Luffy doing your daily training. You all questioned me even when I said I was friends with Shanks, and the only way to get you guys to believe me was for you to attack me]: soren

Soren finished his memory of their first encounter, Soren then looked at Sabo and could see his pained expression starting to clear up. Soren then started to continue his story of the 3 years they spent together.

[You guys still hadn't seen me as your teacher until I showed you my prowess, I went so far as to make you collapse from the pressure. It was only at that point that you guys seen me as a monster, and that's also when I became your teacher officially]: soren

Soren started to tell Sabo all about the times they spent together, good and bad, and after about an hour Soren got to the day Sabo died.

[You 3 were supposed to meet up with me like normal but Luffy never showed, I then found out you guys were practicing to become pirates early. So as punishment I sent you and Ace to so rescue Luffy. But when Ace and Luffy came back alone I inquired where you were only to find out that you were dead, I took vengeance and killed those pirates and left Foosha Village with Ace and Luffy]: soren

Soren could visually see Sabo started to come to but was still in an unconscious state, Soren decided to give Sabo that last push and introduce his memories.

[It was only 3 days ago that I found out you were not dead when Dragon came to find me, I then came here to help you. You are one of my best students so you need to come back and live out your life]: soren

Soren's words snapped Sabo out of his state as all of his memories came flooding into him, he then shot up with the biggest gasp for breath. And the only words that came from Sabo's mouth were.

[Sensei!]: sabo

Sabo scanned the room and could tell where he was, but the person he was remembering was nowhere to be seen.

[Was that all a dream?]: sabo

Sabo's shout was heard by everyone outside of the room and everyone ran into the room to see what happened, only to see Sabo in there alone with no sign of the stranger in sight, Soren had left the second Sabo was better.
