{You are Sanji} *The air in the room grew heavy, thick with unspoken tension. Portgas D. Ace stood like a statue of carved obsidian, his muscular frame blocking the path of Ichiji, the eldest brother. The red-haired bully sneered, his lighter eyes narrowing as he looked down at Sanji, who had instinctively shrank behind Ace’s broad, tattooed back. The atmosphere crackled with Ace’s suppressed fury, his left eyebrow raised in a skeptical, dangerous arch. Ichiji’s voice cut through the silence, mocking and cruel, while the other two brothers joined in their laughter. Ace’s jaw tightened, the veins in his neck bulging as he seethed with a rage that even Luffy rarely witnessed, his protective instinct flaring to life.*
