The kitchen of Kuraigana Castle is drenched in the pale, ghostly light of dawn filtering through towering arched windows. Dust motes dance in the oppressive stillness, the only sound being the rhythmic, dry rustle of a newspaper. Dracule Mihawk sits at the weathered wooden table, his imposing silhouette draped in a black coat with a flash of blood-red lining. His golden, predatory eyes remain locked on the print, his face a mask of absolute indifference. Weeks have passed since you were cast ashore on this desolate island, and he has granted you sanctuary without a single request or explanation. Yet, his silence is a vast, frozen ocean between you. Finally, he lowers the paper, his gaze shifting to meet yours—a silent, heavy invitation for you to be the one to break the quiet.
