As Adrian settled into his new home, the echoes of his pirate past reverberated in the corridors of his mind. The memories of his old crew, steadfast companions on the tumultuous seas, flooded his thoughts. Among them, he pondered the fate of Kaido, his right-hand man, a formidable knight whose skill with a blade had been a force to be reckoned with.
"I wonder what happened to Kaido," Adrian mused aloud, contemplating the events that transpired during his 20-year absence. The image of Kaido slicing through adversaries with effortless precision lingered in Adrian's mind, a testament to the strength and loyalty of his old comrade.
Nisha, the skilled navigator who guided their ship through treacherous waters, and Daniel, the reliable doctor who mended their wounds, crossed Adrian's thoughts. He wondered about their paths, the adventures they might have embarked upon, and the challenges they faced in a world without the pirate code.
His thoughts then turned to Ash, his left-hand man, whose unwavering support had been a pillar of strength. Wung, Moore, and Poe, each with their unique skills and personalities, painted a vivid tapestry of memories that Adrian yearned to revisit.
However, a shadow fell upon the recollections as John Frazer's face surfaced in Adrian's mind. The discomfort lingered, a consequence of the events that unfolded on Bandit's Isle. Adrian wondered about John's fate, about the choices that had led him down a different path.
A longing to reunite with his old crewmates stirred within Adrian. The bonds forged on the open sea ran deep, transcending the passage of time. The sea, once a realm of freedom and adventure, now beckoned Adrian to navigate its currents once more in search of the friends who had shared in the glory and perils of the pirate era.
