Manifesting with all i got the return of the navigator of Rocks crew💥🙇 !!!
i love what you do it’s always so fun and well written also love love LOVE the community of people around it, u guys are the best honestly (sorry if my english is bad it’s my second language🧚)
You’ve got to understand the Navigator is doing the least she can. 😂 Slight spoilers below
The table was sticky with spilled rum, cards slick under your hands. Your head swam, cheeks warm, and you could hardly tell if you were playing cards or wrestling them. Rocks D. Xebec leaned in close, eyes glittering, grin feral.
“Slapjack,” he growled, throwing the cards down with heavy hands. “Even a drunk can do that. Winner takes the prize. You join my crew when I win. My ship is yours if you pull off a miracle.”
You hiccuped. “Sounds fair.”
The game snapped to life. Cards slapped down, one by one. The crowd roared every time you missed, howling when you lunged too late and smacked the table instead. Xebec’s hand was a hammer, fast and merciless. He snarled with every slap, convinced the next card would be his victory.
Then it happened. A jack hit the table.
You slammed your palm down like you were swatting a fly. The impact rattled the mugs, sent rum sloshing over the edge, and flattened the card before Xebec’s hand could even twitch. The room froze.
You lifted your palm slowly, wobbling in your chair, and grinned. “That’s my jack.”
The crew erupted. Laughter shook the walls, pirates howled into their mugs, and one actually fell backward off his stool. Xebec stared at your hand, then at the card, then at you, a vein throbbing in his temple
Another jack came. You slammed again, nearly face planting into the table, but you got it. And then another. And another. The pile grew under your hand. You were sloshed, off-balance, and somehow still unbeatable.
Near the end of the round, the mountain of cards on your side of the table looked like a throne. You leaned back, swaying, arms spread wide. “Guess that means the ship is almost mine.”
Xebec was silent, seething, the disbelief painted plain across his face. For the first time in his life, Rocks D. Xebec could not understand how the hell he was losing.
i literally dont care what anyone says, i will stay dying on the hill of loving the long ring long land arc of one piece 😭😭😭 i'd happily watch a hundred davy back fights 😭😭😭😭

Summary:
It’s another hour or so, by Sabo's internal clock’s reckoning, before another woman walks into his cell. She’s dressed the same as the first woman, dark pants and shoes, with the collar of a white shirt peeking out underneath a red jacket. It’s not the uniform of the soldiers, and not a uniform he remembers seeing on the pictures he was given during his briefing back on Baltigo.
This woman’s hair is an inky black, falling to just above her shoulders. She grins at Sabo, tucking her hair behind her ear. “Hello,” she says. “Koala sent me.”
Well his answer is clear to this game. He dislikes it because it is just a loss of time he could use other wise.
But.... If his captain decides to play it. You can be sure, they will lose the first round on purpose, just to get the other crew much more bashed.
Fighting fair? Not possible. Without blood? You pissed off the wrong crew...
One thing for sure, they won’t wanna have a member from another crew, just getting back the one they lost on purpose, then getting proviant. After this they would sail their way again.
