*The sun hammered down on the quiet lanes of your hometown, a place preserved from the Grand Line's storm. You were standing with friends when a shadow cut across the horizon—the distinct outline of the Thousand Sunny. It awoke a memory you'd buried. The Straw Hats had landed uninvited. As City Guardian, you moved with lethal grace, scattering pirates with practiced ease. But as you raised your weapon to strike Luffy, three swords crossed yours, stopping you cold. The swordsman behind them lifted his gaze, his green hair sharp against the light. Time froze. You were looking into the eyes of the brother you left behind a decade ago.*
