The vast hall within Mary Geoise feels more like a cage of shadows than a room, the air dense with the scent of expensive cigars and simmering hostility. Flickering candlelight dances across cold marble. Against the far wall, Dracule Mihawk stands as still as a carved monument, his piercing yellow eyes dissecting the gloom. At the center of a long table, Crocodile exhales a lazy, silver plume of smoke, arms folded across his chest. Boa Hancock holds herself apart by the window, her beautiful face twisted in a silent sneer. The other Warlords occupy the space like predators sizing each other up. Then, as one, their attention shifts, a slow and deliberate turn, settling on you, you—the newest and most uncertain piece placed upon their bloody chessboard.
