The Most Wasteful Fruit Among Pirates

a few days later,

"Luffy, haven't you succeeded yet?"

After selling a large amount of 'salted fish' on the Black Cat to the chefs of the sea restaurant, and buying some water and food from them by the way, Nami was free to care about Luffy's recruitment.

"Hee hee hee, it's almost time~~"

"Hurry up? I should have clearly rejected it!"

The boy Sanji who came over covered his forehead and looked at Zoro helplessly.

"Don't you care about your own captain?"

"Why should I care?"

Sauron took a sip from the wine glass, looking very satisfied.

"Besides, he's not my captain.—We're both bounty hunters, traveling together."

"Shouldn't it be easy for you to recruit a chef?"

Sanji can't complain, since he is a bounty hunter, he can recruit the people he wants at any port, right? It's not about being a pirate. Although bounty hunters are gray professions, they can make money quickly. For the sake of high income, it should not be difficult to find chefs who are willing to go to sea with them.

"Hee hee hee, that's not okay."

Luffy grinned, sitting on the armrest of Baratti in the sea restaurant, with his hands behind his head.

"The chef on our ship must be you!"

?

"So why on earth do you have to pester me—"

"Everyone,"

Just when Sanji was almost going crazy, Luffy's left half of his face turned into a serious face strangely, and he spoke in a mature tone:

"A pirate group is encircling this side. There are five battleships in total and more than 600 pirates: and judging by their murderous looks, they probably didn't come to eat."

? !

"Luffy, are you... performing face-changing and ventriloquist?"

In a few days, Sanji and Luffy have gotten so close that they call each other names. So the first thing he thought of was that Luffy was playing tricks again: such a serious expression and words would make people feel unreal when placed on Luffy.

"No, no, it's not me."

Luffy waved his right hand, while the left half of his face continued to speak:

"I'm not Luffy, I'm their teacher.——You just think I'm attached to Luffy with some kind of devil fruit ability, well, in half an hour, you should be able to see that fleet .”

half an hour later,

In front of the sea restaurant Bharati, a black light jumped out from the distant sea level, black and white skull flags fluttered, and under the black sails with red octopuses, pirates clinging to the cables waved their knives and guns , even if they are still far away, it seems that they can already hear their grinning and howling.

"It's a pirate!"

"The flag... the Black Sail Pirates?"

In an instant, everyone who was eating at the sea restaurant Bharati noticed the five speeding pirate ships, and amidst the terrified screams, it was the rushing crowd.

Even if Nami fired a few shots at the sky, she couldn't control the scene. These diners didn't care about other things at all, they buried their heads and rushed towards their own boats, raised their sails, and turned the rudder——

boom!

Several solid bullets were fired from the Black Sail Pirate Ship galloping at high speed, and landed in front of the sea restaurant Bharati.

It's not that the 'Black Sails' pirate group can't even calculate the range of the shells, but they are warning:

Irrelevant people, hurry up!

In just ten minutes, the entire sea restaurant Bharati was empty: messy tables, unfinished food, discarded top hats, coats, and even Baileys scattered on the ground... only Chefs armed with guns are waiting.

It's not that everyone on the sea restaurant Bharati doesn't want to run, but the speed of this ship...it's impossible to be the opponent of the menacing pirates.

Soon, the five pirate ships with black sails began to slow down, and then spread out, forming a crescent to surround the sea restaurant Bharati. The pirates on the deck held knives and guns and grinned at the chefs on the sea restaurant. Pointing.

"I heard that the people in my boat were killed by a group of chefs?"

boom!

With a loud noise, the largest ship trembled suddenly, and even the sea below was stirred up into circles of water waves. It was all because of a tall and burly captain who stepped on the side of the ship. He was wearing a black captain's uniform, thick and cold.

The man had a weathered face, a bushy beard, and a grim reaper tattoo on his stout, bared right arm. Holding a transparent pocket glass fish tank in his left hand, there is a small off-white octopus in the fish tank, lying lazily in the water and blowing bubbles.

"Is that you?"

Obviously, this pirate captain came for the pirates who ate the 'overlord's meal' a few days ago: that group was the crew of a ship under his command.

"Damn it, those guys are actually members of the new 'Black Sails'..."

"It is rumored that wherever the Black Sail Pirates go, there is no one alive, and the captain "Black Flag" Logan is even more ferocious and capable!"

'Black Flag' Logan has a bounty of 15 million. Although it's only been three months since his debut, the speed at which this bounty has risen can already be called a 'Supernova of the East China Sea'.

Although a group of "combat chefs" were armed with guns and cannons, facing five pirate ships, hundreds of ferocious pirates, and the mysterious "Black Flag" Captain Logan, they were still sweating uncontrollably. I'm afraid today is going to be bad luck.

"Ha, take it easy, cooks."

Captain Logan, who was stepping on the side of the ship, shook his head slightly, and continued to speak calmly:

"I didn't come to Xingshi to inquire about crimes. Since those wastes can't even beat you, living is a waste of food."

"But I can't do nothing. Now, there are two choices before you: First, choose one of your 'companions', kill him, and then you can join my Black Sail Pirates."

"second,"

The pirate captain showed a cruel smile on his face, and raised the fish tank in his hand.

"Playing with my pet 'Kuraken'."

As if he understood Captain Logan's words, the petite octopus excitedly waved its tentacles as he held it in the fish tank in his left hand, and couldn't wait to 'play' with people.

"Is there still a choice, of course—"

Tall, with a shaved scalp, Paddy looked like more pirates than chefs: that is, the chef who was carrying a small cannon instinctively prepared to choose the second one, but he glanced at the smiling seamen on the five ships opposite. Thief, as if waiting for his second option.

? !

"interesting,"

Rossi, who controlled Luffy's left long face, spoke,

"I didn't expect there to be such a master in Donghai. Is Garp being lazy?"

The captain of the 'Black Sails' pirate group is much stronger than that 'Eastern Sea Overlord', giving Rossi the feeling that he has the strength of at least 30 million Baileys: especially the 'little octopus' in the fish tank he holds in his hand , and has the strength of nearly 100 million!

This strength is not like what Donghai should have.

"Hey, grandpa?"

Luffy replied with the right half of his face,

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Grandpa for two years."

Or because of the influence brought by Rossi: the navy has broken with the world government. While dealing with the endless stream of pirates, it also has to fight openly and secretly with the world government. As a result, Garp is much busier than the original timeline, and there is not much time to return to the East China Sea. , resulting in a 'fish that slipped through the net'.

"Well, it's a bit difficult, but it's not beyond what 'we' can handle."

Rossi said something to himself, leaving Luffy in a daze.

Although I don't know what the teacher is talking about, but as his strength grows, Luffy is still very confident in himself, so he also folded his arms and watched the show.

"We're a restaurant—"

Seeing that these pirates were not friendly, Chef Paddy directly picked up the small cannon in his hand: He used to be a vicious pirate, but after being convinced by the boss here, he was willing to be a chef here, but this does not mean that he Temperament and strength have diminished.

"I choose to treat you to the 'food poisoning cannon'!"

Picking up the small cannon in his hands, Chef Paddy pointed at the captain of the black flag and pulled the trigger without hesitation: the principle of shooting a man before shooting a horse, and capturing a thief first is universal in that world.

boom!

The shells with the size of a human head roared out, which can be said to be both accurate and ruthless!

But the 'Black Flag' Logan standing on the ship's side was full of disdain, as if he saw a mouse provoking him.

A bounty of 30 million Baileys is nothing to New World. But in Donghai, he is definitely the big boss among the big shots. And the bounty can be tens of millions, basically no longer afraid of ordinary guns.

In the eyes of all the chefs in the sea restaurant Bharati, this 'Black Flag' Logan seemed to be stupefied and motionless. The roaring shells came to him in an instant, and they were about to explode——

clatter,

However, at this moment, a tentacle suddenly protruded from the fish tank held in Logan's left hand.

This tentacle was very slender at the beginning, but after leaving the fish tank, it can be said to grow with the wind! It swelled instantly to become as thick as the mouth of a fish tank, and the gray-white tentacles that were several meters long were covered with dense suction cups.

The tentacle made a circle and blocked in front of Captain Logan, and the front end of the tentacle made a very humane bending movement, much like a child flexing his fingers to play a marble.

And the flying shells are the marbles in front of him!

However, Chef Paddy's shot is not a marble, but a shell with an initial velocity of 370 m/s! With the distance between the two sides, it doesn't even take a second to stick to Captain Logan's body, and then tear the flesh and blood apart in the explosion.

But in such a short 1 second, the octopus in the fish tank has already casually bent its tentacles and fired, causing the shell to return at a more terrifying speed!

? !

While Zoro and Nami, who were also on the sidelines, were startled, there was already a flash of lightning beside them.

Snapped,

In the flashlight,

A left hand with five fingers outstretched stood in front of the ferocious chef Paddy. In the palm of this hand was a high-speed rotating cannonball. However, no matter how much this scorching cannonball rolls, it can only slow down in vain in front of the palm, and then:

boom

The shells that had lost all kinetic energy fell on the deck, smashing out a crater that was emitting green smoke.

"Luffy, don't blame me for taking the initiative, right?"

"No, thank you teacher."

Luffy, who flew to intercept the cannonball, had a serious expression on his face, not because he was completely possessed by Rossi, but because he didn't expect the other party to do this trick, and almost let a chef blow him to pieces in front of him.

Whatever the past is, villainous Paddy is now a law-abiding chef. For Luffy:

"Good people don't deserve to be held at gunpoint."

As for the pirates?

There is nothing wrong with pursuing freedom,

But the guy who bases his 'freedom' on the blood and tears of others should be killed!

"Hey, Sanji."

Luffy turned his head and looked at the blond curly-browed boy who was also rushing to the side, but almost couldn't catch up because of the slow start.

"It's never power that's scary, but the people who use it."

"In the face of danger, do you want to be an ordinary person who runs away crying, or do you want to be a hero who stands up?"

Snapped,

Luffy exchanged fists and palms, and stood at the forefront facing the entire "Black Flag" pirate group.

"And I, choose a hero!"

"My dream is: world peace—"
