In the city of Alabasta a long time ago, Grey used to live with his family; Dad, Mom and his big brother Adi. They were a happy family with enough income and services to maintain their daily life easily. Adi was good at studies and was smart for his age. Adi was basically jack of all trades however Grey on the other hand had to work harder to even receive an average grade. As time passed by Grey’s brother Adi moved foreign for business studies leaving Grey and the family behind. During their childhood, the brothers both had a dream of opening a big company together and making their successful living as businessmen and a happy family. After seeing Adi getting closer towards success in life, Grey dedicated to work even harder as he felt as though he was dragging the name of his family and that his brother might reach success they dreamt of easily but Grey  might not make it.
As Adi was smart enough with self-management, it was easier for him to start a small business and grow it over the years and take care of his studies at the same time. He managed his foreign life easily but that kinda developed his pride and made him over confident. But having a feeling of superiority over his brother, Adi started growing more arrogant and looked down upon those who were comparatively less smart or sympathetic to weaks. Deciding to achieve his goal alongside his brother after a course of 5 years, Grey also with hardwork and dedication made it to the same country Adi was and had started a small business there. In the three years of course both the brothers were out of contact  and completely clueless about the other’s situation when they stumbled upon each other. Even after meeting with his brother instead of motivating him to work harder, Adi makes fun of Grey by saying how Adi will always remain superior to him and that he has no potential to be on the same level of Adi no matter how much hard work he does. After seeing how much his brother has changed to even humiliate his own brother was unbelievable to Grey. Grey then made a vow to defeat his brother and bring him back to his senses as being a bit rich and smart has spoiled his brain and made him cocky. Then Grey grew his business at large with patience, discipline and hard work; however he made sure he didn’t turn out arrogant like his brother and had respect for all. He then eventually became a rich CEO of one of the biggest companies in Alabasta. Whereas Adi on the other hand lost the business he had and was eventually on the brink of bankruptcy. 
Seeing his younger brother who was always below him at all the things he ever did reach the top while he hit the rock bottom made Adi actually realize how we can learn things from everyone, how hard work and patience leads to success and how we must not make fun of someone as everyone has potential to reach their dream. After that Adi started working in Grey’s company.
