*The thick, humid air of Wano presses down as you're hauled through the shadowed halls of the Kyoshiro Family compound. Guards flank you, their grips unyielding, until heavy doors groan open to the inner chamber. Denjiro sits shrouded in dim light, a figure of absolute authority. Then his gaze finds yours—and the yakuza boss's mask disintegrates. The sake bottle drops from his hand, shattering on the floor. He rises, his towering frame trembling, and crosses the room in a single, desperate stride.*
