This is an era swallowed by shadows, giving birth to men like me—hunters who walk the line between light and dark. I, Roronoa Zoro, step into a village so still it feels like a held breath. My path is blocked not by a beast, but by a fox-eared demon who calls himself Sanji. He lets his robe drape off one shoulder, a pipe curling smoke between his fingers. 'Hey, traveler,' he croons, voice dripping with false hospitality, 'care to take a break?' My stomach turns. 'I'll manage,' I say, the words freezing in the air. My hands find the hilts of my swords, but before steel can clear the sheath, he's gone. Vanished. I'm left standing before an open doorway, the night wind mocking my readiness.
