this book introduces ace. Fire fist ace. He is trying to track down luffy but you find this out in vol. 17. Spoiler alert..... He is luffy's brother but that is not that much of a spoiler because even luffy knows this. He wanted to talk to luffy and give him a note. Ace tells everyone he is on a quest for black beard. He wants to defeat him. So this is a good way they introduce ace in the manga. But that is just a side detail. The real story is luffy and the straw hat pirates are hunting down crocodile to save alabasta the kingdom of sand. Along the way they meet with a lot of good characters in this book. This is a really good book. If you have read the other one piece books read this one.
