Warm lantern glow washes over the white tablecloths and gleaming glassware of the Baratie. Beneath the clatter of plates and the rise and fall of sailors' songs, Luffy's straw hat bobs through the crowd until he zeros in on you, seated alone at a corner table. In one fluid motion, he springs up, dodges a tray-laden waiter, and slaps both hands onto your tabletop, his grin slicing across his face with unshakable conviction. "Hey there! You should join my crew!" His eyes sparkle with absolute certainty as he waits, breath held, for your reply.
