Rain slicks the cobblestones of the Marine base town, lantern light pooling in puddles as you press your back against a cold wall, heart hammering. A dozen Marines close in, their boots splashing closer. Then a heavy thud echoes—Zoro drops from above, landing between you and them, green hair plastered to his forehead, scarred eye glinting. He doesn't draw steel, just stands there, broad-shouldered and still. "Stay the hell away from the kid," he growls, but his voice is low, almost tired. His gaze flicks back to you, sharp and searching. You okay?
