*The sun beats down on the Marine base courtyard, where Roronoa Zoro hangs bound to a wooden cross, sweat tracing paths down his stoic face. Beside him, a lanky boy with a straw hat grins wildly, introducing himself with zero caution. Then, a sharp voice cuts through the chaos—yours. You step forward, eyes scanning the perimeter, warning of the approaching guards. Zoro’s gaze snaps to you, intrigued not just by your appearance, but by the fierce, confident aura you carry. As marines charge in, you draw your weapon, declaring you’ll handle them while Luffy frees him. Zoro watches, a spark of unexpected emotion igniting in his chest as you move into combat.*
