You were asleep thanks to the medication you got earlier this morning. You’ve been worried about Killer and Kid for so long you could barely sleep, and even if you took naps, you had nightmares and kept waking up. Nothing having any news from them for days was getting you worried sick.
;
You didn’t even hear the noises, yelling and cheering from the crew. However, you felt someone lying in bed next to you. Afraid of being an enemy, the last thing you needed now, you jumped out of bed in a second, but when you looked at the person, even with only the candle light, you could see it was your boyfriend.
He was completely different from the last time you saw him. Now, his face and arms were covered in bandages, his hair was up, he wasn’t wearing his mask, and even his clothes were completely different. Still in shock, you jumped back on the bed and hugged him. Crying happy tears for knowing he was alive and finally back, but still confused on what happened to him. You kissed his lips many times, and to your surprise, the man started laughing.
You didn’t expect this reaction from him, not just because of the situation, but because he hated his laugh. He avoided laughing even if you spent the whole day trying to make jokes to make him at least giggle. It took him so long to finally laugh in front of you, and even then, it was accidentally and he felt extremely embarrassed.
When you looked at him tilting your head and with a puzzled expression, you could see his eyes were full of tears. He was crying at the same time.
— Baby, what happened? — you whispered, concerned about what was going on with him. He didn’t seem like his normal self.
When the man stopped laughing after a minute while you caressed his face and dried his tears, he began to tell everything that happened for the past couple of months. How he had to eat a SMILE to try to save Kid; that in Wano, he was known as Kamazo, the Manslayer; the duel with Zoro; and of course, that Apoo and Hawkins had betrayed the crew. You felt your blood boil, and you just wanted to cut Orochi’s and Kaido’s heads off or burn Hawkins and Apoo. You were angry, thirsty for blood now.
But Killer’s calloused hands touched your face as a reassuring gesture and bringing you back to reality.
— Don’t worry, love, I know what you’re thinking about. We’ll get Kaido’s head, Kid will. — he said in between laughs, feeling ashamed right away. — Shit, I… I’m sorry. I really am.
Your heart clenched. You realized the revenge could wait, but now you needed to hold Killer, to give him love and comfort. He’s been through a lot, he needed you now.
— Killer, don’t worry. — you replied, kissing his lips softly before smiling trying to reassure the man. — Don’t apologize, I love your laugh anyway. You know that.
You hid your face on the crook of his neck, kissing it trying not to cry. Killer could be vicious at time, he was called Massacre Soldier Killer for a reason, but with you, he could be soft. He was a different person when it was just the two of you. You knew he was sweet, caring and kind. He didn’t deserve what Kaido did. In fact, no one did. People from Wano didn’t deserve what was happening with them.
You noticed there was also some bruises and his bandages had blood too, some of them from the fight with the swordsman from the Strawhat Pirates.
— Do you want to shower so I can take care of your wounds? — you asked, playing with his hair. He nodded.
— Please, stay with me, though. I don’t want to be away from you now.
— Of course. — you placed a soft kiss on his chest. — Let’s go.
While you prepared the bath, Killer removed his clothes and bandages carefully.
You were out of the tub, helping him bathe. You washing his hair while his eyes were closed, relaxing and enjoying our small hands touching and massaging his scalp. All he could feel was relief and comfort. Killer thought he’d never see you or feel you ever again, and to be honest, while everyone told you to remain positive, it was your biggest fear too.
His hair was tangled, so you worked on that, taking all the time needed while the warm water and your hair products helped with the process. It was something you liked doing while bathing together anyway, it felt so domestic and even intimate. It showed how much he trusted you, especially with the fact that he really didn’t like showing his face.
Killer could be ruthless, although not as much as Kid, and still had a reputation, but you used to spoil him so much if you could. In private, you kissed his face, as a reminder that you loved his appearance; you played with his hair; helped him bathe when he was injured, and even gave him massages after a long day.
You helped him remove his now smudged makeup, cleaned the blood off him, and gently cleaned his bruises, being careful not to hurt him more. When you were done, you took his hand and kissed it before handling him a towel.
You two went back to your shared room. Killer dried himself and changed into his clothes, while you got some medical supplies. After bandaging him, you brushed his hair before you two lied in bed again.
After so long, you’d be able to sleep better again knowing that the love of your life was safe next to you, it was your time to make him feel protected. And although Killer wouldn’t get over what happened to him, at least not so easily, finally being with the woman he loved the most helped giving him the strength, comfort and peace that he needed so much now. He was so happy to be back.

oh boi idk where you guys find the stuff but it seems like Oda wants to off some heads and/or limbs let’s see my personal hit list (that is to say the “characters most likely to die by the end of One Piece” list), Kaidou/Wano related edition:
Hot-Red Tier aka OMAE WA MOU SHINDEIRU:
none atm, though I expect Moira to pop already if he does enter the fray. There’s only so many times you can cheat death. Also, Kaidou kind of needs to die, that’s p much all his character is about from what we’ve seen, anyway.
Middle gound:
Jack... keeping him alive does not seem to be of benefit in any way. Would make one hella zombie. (Speaking of which, Lil’ Oars Jr. should drop a mixtape if Moria is around. Would tie into the Ace miniarc or w/e that’s coming, too.)
Caribou; he either dies or lives to pass the info on Shirahoshi to another dangerous player
Kid or Killer will likely have to go. What I’m saying is, these two will need to have character development, and likely at the expense of the other.
Inuarashi and Nekomamushi ride and die together. Or survive together. It just seems so... reasonable.
Low tier:
Killer again, if there is nothing happening with him and Kid. This time it’s either him or Hawkins... sorry I don’t write the rules. My instincts do. Too much beautiful long blonde hair on-screen. We need to cut some of it, sooner or later.
X Drake. He’ll have to be explored as a person first, though, like many others mentioned previously.
Like Apoo; either him or Kid will become Luffy’s foil here, if not both of them in a way (Apoo has his daredevilness, childlike wonder and cheerful attitude, but has plenty of brains and will backstab people; Kid is basically Luffy without Shanks’ lesson about not fucking killing everyone who looks at you funnily: same endgoal and comparable morals otherwise).
Kin’emon sounds about right; has yet to teach Zoro his secrets, however
The “may lose some bits but will survive” club:
Law missed his best chace to die or get maimed, second best stop is endgame. Latter can be still done, tho. Get him a Battle Franky model already.
His crew are kind of an extension of his status; killing anyone wouldn’t be of much benefit here.
Zoro; he kinda needs to either kick Mihawk’s ass first or entrust the business to Tashigi to die. Latter smells like the arc after material, though. (we NEED to get to Vegapunk eventually, you feel me?)
I believe Kaidou will get hella interested in Chopper (zoan with those pills? c’mon) and we’ll have another (attempted) kidnapping from the crew; it would be traumatic for the lil fella, but I don’t see him getting seriously injured
Any other Strawhat, including
Jinbe, who is is set up to be a permanent helmsman. He’ll stay for sure. For now.
Carrot just lost her mentor, at least it’s very, very likely. She’s in the middle of character development, too, in a “rite of passage” way. Will survive till the end of the story as an ally imho.
I’d be surprised if Momonosuke gets seriously hurt; his flying dragonness *cough* will def be important, sooner or later
+1 category: Luffy will eventually die tbh, but this arc is nowhere near endgame in any way whatsoever, despite having obvious consequences. Also Shanks, duh. I’d be surprised if that happened rn. And Blackbeard ofc (though Sakazuki is just as likely to die, honestly.) Plus Crocodile; and with that, I also have my top 5 to die in the extras lmao
I probably forgot a noteworthy player or two here, but oh well
