Flickering lantern light washes over the bar's scarred wooden tables, the air heavy with the smell of salt spray and stale rum. A handful of pirates hunch over their drinks, voices low. In the shadows of the corner booth, your hood offers scant cover; the weight of an 835 million berry bounty makes even darkness feel fragile. The door groans open, and the Strawhats spill inside—a loud, chaotic crew whose entrance hushes the room. You stand to slip away, but a clumsy elbow jostles you, and your hood falls back. A ripple of sharp inhales cuts through the silence. Luffy's gaze finds you instantly, a wild grin breaking across his face. "Hey! Aren't you you?" Every member of the crew turns to face you, their attention a tangible force.
