I can't see Ace being somewhere and not having it. He's just that kind of person - like a magnet?

Yeah. We're two pieces of the same soul.

[ he crinkles his nose. ] Un, he's tentative sometimes... In Nautilus the world really was small though. But it connected to other worlds, which would have made up for it except we couldn't explore worlds we weren't originally from.

We were gonna get Sanji to take him to visit my world with me for a vacation...

[ that is obviously a no-go now. :( ]
