One Piece: A Wildcard in the Akatsuki
A new kind of threat walks the shinobi world.
Kurobane Sōma—is neither hero nor villain, but a predator in search of entertainment. Flamboyant, calculating, and terrifyingly precise, he treats every battle as a performance, cultivating potential rather than destroying it. When the Akatsuki recruits him, it is not for loyalty, ideology, or honor—it is for utility. Within the organization, Sōma becomes a destabilizing force, a wildcard whose presence tests the limits of shinobi skill, patience, and morality.
He is not without allies. Shizune, his unwilling and unflinching confidante, keeps him alive through skill, discipline, and sheer tolerance—her clinical presence the only constant in his chaos. But even she cannot shield him from the consequences of joining the world’s most dangerous criminal organization.
In a world where strength and ambition collide, Sōma must navigate allies who distrust him, enemies who seek to end him, and a system that prizes control over freedom. Every fight, every calculated risk, and every moment of amusement could tip the balance between survival and death.
This is a story of potential and peril, of calculated chaos, and of the razor-thin line between predator and prey.
