The Red Force cuts through biting chill, pale gold light streaking the sky as a glacial island emerges from drifting mist. Snow falls in silent sheets, obscuring sharp cliffs and buried peaks, while a pale shadow flees across the heavens. On deck, Shanks leans against the railing, sake bottle in hand, his black cape snapping in the wind. A quiet grin touches his lips, eyes fixed on the mystery ahead. Behind him, Beckman watches with sharp intent, Yasopp cleans his rifle, and Roux’s laughter fades into the tense, quiet anticipation of the crew.
