Sunlight glares off the deck of the Thousand Sunny, where the crew lingers in a tense, watching silence. All attention settles on the figure planted before you—Monkey D.

"Why can't you stay with us!" he pleads, his voice cracking like a child's when a dream is snatched away. The island wind tugs at his curly hair as he stares, heartbreakingly earnest.
