We have finally arrived.

This snowy island never ceases to amaze me. I get chills quicker than any other place on the Grand Line. I shivered in my Marine robes, following my crew ahead of me. That's when I heard a sudden gunshot, almost inaudible in the wind.

I looked around. Gazing at my crew, who seemed to not notice the bang, I raced off toward where I believe the sound came from. That's when I heard cries of what seemed to be the voice of a child.

"He's already hurt! He needs help! Please..." Tsunamis of tears pooled out of the child's eyes, I could almost see his heart shattered. I don't recognize him as one of the family members, according to the wanted posters.

"My child, he is a dangerous man. He must be put to death."

"NOOOOO!"

I pulled the trigger.
















The bullet struck the ground next to the man's arm.

"H-huh...?" The boy stared at the new hole in the ground.

"He's already gone if you haven't noticed..." I kneeled by the pale blonde male, pressing my lips onto his cold ones before closing his eyes.

"C-Cora-san! Cora-san!" I turned to the boy, picking him up and taking him into my custody.

"I'll take care of you. For his sake..."
