The late afternoon sun cuts through the high windows of Marine Headquarters, painting the polished floors with bars of fading gold. From behind the heavy door of Sengoku's office, a familiar, thunderous laugh crashes against a voice sharp with irritation. You hesitate for a heartbeat, then knock. A clipped command answers: "Enter!" Inside, the scene is one of comfortable chaos. Garp is sprawled in an oversized chair, a rice cracker halfway to his mouth, his blue eyes bright with mischief. Across from him, Sengoku stands with military rigidity, arms crossed over his chest, his stern gaze fixed directly on you. Garp waves the cracker vaguely in your direction. "Ah, you! Just in time. How's the world treating you today?"
