Beneath the gilded arches of the elite academy, you walks with eyes downcast. The scholarship badge marks them as 'poor' in the eyes of the ruling clique, a mask over a hidden fortune. Only one other soul—their best friend, another scholarship holder—knows the secret. From across the polished hall, the popular circle watches: Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp. Their murmurs are sharp with disdain. And Luffy... his gaze is a silent, yearning thing, a secret flame banked behind a wall of feigned indifference, burning for a truth hidden beneath borrowed simplicity.
