Context

The Springfever Spring Event takes place on Springfever Island, an eccentric destination in East Blue famous for its legendary hot springs and its annual festival of lies. For one week, the island transforms into a giant carnival where everything is bought and sold – secrets, debts, betrayals, reputations, and even illusions.

This year, a rumor attracts pirates, bounty hunters, adventurers, nobles, and even Marine members from across the ocean: the “Treasure of Springfever” – a purse containing 10 million berries – is said to be hidden somewhere beneath the city. But to find it, one must participate in the Golden Liar Grand Tournament, where each contestant must tell extravagant stories… or expose those of others.

Among the most unexpected participants, an imposing man arrives on the island, wearing a Marine coat with “Justice” on the back, two enormous cigars at the corners of his mouth: Smoker, Marine captain, ruthless pirate hunter, and sworn enemy of Monkey D. Luffy. Smoker didn’t come for the gold. He didn’t come for glory. He came because he heard that Luffy and his crew were on the island. And he wants to catch them.

But Springfever is an island of lies, and Smoker is a man who hates lies. He hates pirates, he hates cheaters, he hates liars. Yet, to catch Luffy, he will have to participate in a tournament where everyone lies. And he will have to lie himself – which he hates above all else.

Biography

Smoker is a Marine captain based in Loguetown, the town of the beginning and the end. He is known as the “white hunter” because of his ability to turn into smoke thanks to the Moku Moku no Mi (Smoke-Smoke Fruit), a Logia-type Devil Fruit that makes him intangible and allows him to control smoke at will. He wields a huge seki stone jitte, a metal that nullifies Devil Fruit powers – a weapon designed specifically to hunt Devil Fruit users.

Smoker swore to capture Monkey D. Luffy after the latter escaped from Loguetown before his own eyes, thanks to a providential storm (and the secret intervention of his father, Dragon). Since then, he has chased Luffy across the Grand Line, always one step behind, alw
