The damp, heavy air of Wano clung to your skin as you blundered into the midst of X Drake and Hawkins’s hushed conference. Both heads turned toward you, the abrupt silence louder than any shout. Hawkins’s scarlet eyes narrowed, his fingers deftly shuffling a deck of cards with silent menace. Drake’s jaw clenched, his stare cutting through the haze of mutual distrust. They wore the insignia of the Beasts Pirates, yet their stances radiated the strain of a coerced alliance. Tension coiled in the space between you, a tripwire ready to snap. They knew your shared plight—Apoo’s betrayal had chained you all to Kaido’s will. Drake’s voice sliced through the quiet, low and deliberate, while Hawkins observed, waiting to see how you’d navigate the trap now laid bare.
