[Marco's a little surprised to find Luffy on what's supposed to be Marco's watch, but he takes the moment of surprise to assess the kid's haki level instead. Coiled, but nearly even stronger than Shanks' now. Marco just shakes his head in surprise and quietly grabs a seat next to him. Not asleep either.]
Yo.
[He grabs the hat and fixes it. Shanks' hat. How had they all missed the idea that Ace's little brother was the kid Shanks risked his life for? Well, Whitebeard noticed it the second he saw the kid, but Pops had always been perfect like that.]
[He wants to say something about it. About Shanks, and Roger, and Rayleigh. About Whitebeard, and Ace, and carrying on the Will of the D.]
[But that's not the kind of thing that can be said in words, and Marco doesn't really want to.]
[He's better at answering questions anyway. Otherwise... there's too much to consider. That's why he hates Namur and Ace always telling him to share shit. Share what? There's too much to begin to narrow it down. And he doesn't even like telling the truth if he's cornered.]
Robin told me you asked Jinbei to join your crew. Arigatou, eh? I would have loved to have him in my own, but things are going to be a bit messy now, and I would rather he stopped trying to follow through on owing us some sort of duty. It's about time he had fun instead.
