[Smoker is verbose. Moreso than she thought. And he's too straightforward to purposefully mislead her --more to the point, why would he? There was nothing she could do with a truth or a lie here. She sips her drink and thinks about what he sad. There are so many connections with ends she can't see. A puzzle with too many pieces of context missing...for now. And the presence of Aokiji startles her. A thrill of something that is not quite fear--or fear mixed in with something else that she can't identify. But it makes sense that he would rescue his protege.
She is glad to hear of her crew, though. Chopper. And she wants to hear about them all. What they were doing. What they were like. How they had changed. But how could Smoker know? And who knew how much he had even seen]
I suppose even the strongest justice can be deceived, ne? [anyone could be, really. The more you trust, the easier it is for someone to betray you. But it's rather like risking your life for a dream. You trust what is important for the sake of happiness. Your own and others]
