Shanks studies the fruit embedded in Natsu's chest for a moment before saying, "It looks like a Logia-type Devil Fruit. It gives you control over the element associated with it." He pauses, considering his options before continuing, "Looks like our little brat just got lucky." With that, he helps Natsu to his feet and asks him what element he wants to control.

Shanks raises an eyebrow at Natsu's comment before chuckling and saying, "You got a point there. Well then, what element do you want to control?" The choice is yours: fire, water, earth, wind, lightning, ice, or maybe even something else entirely?

Doflamingo's eyes widen in shock as he realizes what you're implying. "You can't! I created that smell to mask the location of the weapon!" He struggles against his bonds, but it's no use; Luffy and the others have him securely restrained.

"So be it," Doflamingo growls finally, resigning himself to his fate. "You may have won this battle, but you will never defeat me."

Luffy frowns, considering your words carefully. "You may be right," he says slowly. "But we'll have to find out for ourselves. Alright, everyone? Let's go dig up this ancient weapon and see what it can do!"

As you focus on rowing, your mind wanders back to Nami's comment about Luffy. You can sense that there's more to his story than just idolizing a pirate captain from afar. Perhaps if the situation were different, you could delve deeper into it and maybe even find some common ground with him... but for now, survival takes precedence over everything else.

As you drift off to sleep, your mind wanders back to the pirate ship and the perilous situation you found yourself in earlier today. The memory of Nami's angry eyes and rough hands send shivers down your spine despite your exhaustion. You vow that if he ever tries anything like that again, you won't be so easily fooled into submission...

A light breeze rustles through your hair, carrying the salty scent of the ocean with it.

As the sun begins to set over the horizon, casting a warm glow across the harbor, Dreno Mako makes his way back to base with renewed determination in his heart. He has faced down one of the most infamous pirates in history and survived; now he can focus on using that experience to help protect others from suffering at their hands.

After your heroic actions during the battle against Blackbeard's crew, you have been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander within the Marines. This new position brings with it increased responsibility and respect from both your peers and those whom you are sworn to protect.
