Shin watched as Uranus charged at him, sidestepping the attack with a swift movement. He considered whether he should just end it with a single slash.
Truthfully, Shin wanted to understand the secret behind Uranus's ability to wield so many Devil Fruit powers.
Many of the abilities he used had already been consumed by others. So the question was, how was Uranus able to use them?
Shin didn't know the answer, but he desperately wanted to find out.

That evening—
The Stacy apartment.
"Helen."
"Oh my God!"
The moment Helen opened the door and saw Hawk following behind Gwen, she let out a gasp of shock. "Hawk, what happened to you?"
Hawk, whose left arm was encased in a cast and suspended in a sling, kept his tone light. "It's nothing. I fell off a ladder while changing the curtains."
Helen gasped again, her hand flying to her mouth.
Hawk met Helen's genuinely co...

"Squirming around like a disgusting earthworm!"
Inosuke struck first, his twin blades flashing as he precisely severed every obi sash and freed the imprisoned women.
The talking, demon-faced obi tried to ambush him from behind, but Inosuke's instincts had already detected it. He dodged effortlessly.
Having grown up in the mountains, Inosuke's sensitivity to danger and killing intent far exceeded that of normal humans.

Erumalu—a city long since run dry.
Once known as the Green City on the lower Sandora River, it had been reduced to a desert wasteland after the waters receded.
A sand-laced wind gusted through the empty streets, whipping at the corner of Katakuri’s coat.
He spared Crocodile a glance before his gaze settled on Jin. He was younger than expected—impossibly so.
"The merchandise?"
ARROGANT BASTARD!!!
Katakuri suppressed a flicker of anger, his cal...

With the plan for the next few years set, the Thunder God Palace emptied.
The seven division commanders departed, each returning to their own territory to lock it down and repel any opportunistic challengers.
Redfield, however, remained on Raijin Island. He settled into a quiet, aristocratic life, much to the surprise of the crew.
It turned out that, for all his monstrous reputation, he was a recluse at his core. A day spent with classical music, a bottle of fine wine, and t...

Seemingly without intention of quickly ending the topic, Chisato smiled faintly as she proactively took the young man's hand, pulling him toward the infirmary's inner section.

Well, couldn't really call it a partition—just a small area separated by white curtains with a single empty bed inside.

The narrow passage was a gash squeezed between two dilapidated, five-story apartment buildings.
Deprived of sunlight for years, the air was perpetually damp and carried a tangible chill. The ground, once pale concrete, had long since been trampled into a murky, foul-smelling sludge.
Five delinquent youths, loud and garish with their dyed hair and cheap earrings, staggered into the alley's entrance.
“Whoa, check out the hot one!” The brown-haired boy on the far right let ...

Gunfire erupted across the shore.
Pirates swarmed the beach, only to be cut down in droves. Only those clad in Armament Haki could weather the storm of rifle fire.
In the New World, Haki was standard issue for any elite pirate. If you couldn't use at least one form of it, could you even call yourself a pirate?

'So the Glare-Glare Fruit was never fated for Viola,' Arthur mused.
His early move—handing Dressrosa over to Doflamingo three years ago, long before it was supposed to happen—had twisted the girl's destiny. At such a young age, she had simply never encountered the fruit.
It was a small change, but a significant one.
It confirmed his theory: the Great Pirate Era itself was an unstoppable tide, a force of history that could not be altered. But the era that followed?

Haru heard SHIKI’s suggestive words.
His left hand, which had been exploring deep inside Shiki Ryougi’s hospital gown, silently withdrew. He even took a moment to straighten the messy fabric.
Although he was often swayed by his baser instincts, Haru was clear-headed in crucial moments. If he pushed things now, he knew that when the truth came out, he would face the combined wrath of Shiki and SHIKI. And perhaps even the Root.
The thought was too terrifying to imagine.
