Watching the pirate ship split like a soggy breadstick and begin its slow, groaning descent into the harbor’s depths, Gale scratched his head, frown tugging at the corner of his mouth.
“…Yeah. That wasn’t it.”
Sure, the mast had been impressive. Watching it fly into the sky ...

Gale raised an eyebrow, arms crossed, pebbles rattling softly in his palm as he perched lazily on the edge of a rooftop. Below, the pirates had formed a rough, angry circle around the flailing, half-naked mess that was Prince Cordavin.
Swords were drawn, insults were flying, and Cordavin—...

Gale cracked the barn door open just enough to peek through. His eyes scanned the moonlit dirt road outside, tracing the movements of two pirates patrolling lazily around the perimeter.
One scratched himself in a way that made Gale regret having eyes, and the other was so busy humming off-k...

A dozen candles flickered on a warped wooden table, casting distorted shadows across the war map of the island. Gale stood over it, arms crossed, trying to pretend like he understood half of the local geography.

The coastal village was a patchwork of makeshift barricades, overturned carts, and what looked suspiciously like a fence made entirely out of broom handles and mop shafts.
And yet—somehow—they had managed to hold their ground long enough for the cavalry, or well, the navy, to arrive.

“Unfurl the foresails! Tighten the main tops’l! I said tighten it, not strangle it!—You, don’t just hug the mast, move it!!”

The path to Marineford's scrapyard was exactly as scenic as it sounded—cracked stone, broken ships, a faint but ever-present whiff of gunpowder and old coffee someone spilled and just never cleaned up.

The Vasshiri Principality’s royal navy had always prided itself on elegance and precision. Their flagship, The Opaline Fang, was no exception—an obsidian-hulled warship with intricate silverwork etched along the rails, glinting under the New World sun like a blade drawn in warning.

The soldier was still breathing. Barely, but breathing.
