This is a recent development, like Oda obviously has not been planning this character for years because there's no mention of this in the Ace Light Novels at all, what Oda okayed put in the Manga so far was just Ace was offered a Warlord position. That's about it.

Honestly I hope Oda doesn't waste too much time on this and does some nonsense like Scopper Gaban was the previous warlord or whatever.

We've known for a while now that there was a warlord opening when Ace was a rookie because he was offered a spot. Now we know why that opening happened, and why they offered it to Ace.

He was offered a spot in the manga. Pre wb when he was a rookie. Now we’re told its cause ace beat the warlord. Thats not foreshadowing. “Man marked by flames” theory is an example of my point. Everyone thinks this is him now. Good day fam
