Chapter 28 Sanji’S Past
The striped man, also known as Ajin, left on the boat provided by Sanji, and Luffy also began his working career.
Xin found the chef here, Zhefu.
With two golden beards tied into braids, a very tall chef's hat, and a wooden prosthetic leg on his right foot, he looks more like a pirate than a chef.
Of course, Xin didn't come here just to see what Zhefu looked like. He said politely:
"Excuse me for disturbing you, Mr. Chef, my captain has caused you a lot of trouble earlier, I'm sorry!"
First he bowed and apologized to his idiot captain, and then got down to business:
"But we can't really stay here for a year. Please tell us the amount of compensation and I will pay it as soon as possible!"
Of course Xin won't wait for Luffy here for a year. There are still some Nami's treasures on the ship. If it can't be done, he can just go out and fight some pirates with bounties on his head.
Zhefu carefully looked at the young man in front of him and stroked his raised beard, as if he was thinking about something.
"You really wanted to recruit Sanji into your gang just now, right?"
After a long silence, Zhefu finally said his first sentence:
"There is no need for compensation, as long as you can impress Sanji and take him out to sea."
"Is this really okay? Isn't he the sous chef here?"
"That kid's future shouldn't be in this ordinary hotel. If possible, take him away!"
"What are you talking about, bastard old man, I will never leave here even if I die!!!"
Sanji suddenly rushed in and interrupted the conversation between the two, shouting at Tetsuo.
"You are a guy who often teases and beats customers, I should have kicked you out a long time ago!!"
Zhefu didn't say anything and kicked him directly. Sanji didn't dodge and was kicked to the ground.
After getting up and patting the dirt on his body, Sanji lit a cigarette, stared into Zhefu's eyes, and said in a low voice:
"No matter what you say, I will never leave!"
"Hmph! Bastard boy."
"Did something happen between you? Why is one determined to chase me away, but the other refuses to leave?"
After Sanji left, Xin asked doubtfully. After being beaten like this, an ordinary chef would have resigned long ago.
Sitting on the chair again, Tetsuo recalled with a face full of stories:
"Thirteen years ago, I had just returned from the Grand Line and was leading my men to rob a passenger ship."
"It was also at that time that I met that kid Sanji. He couldn't even hold a kitchen knife, but he dared to attack me."
"He was still shouting that I must find "all blue", but then a big tsunami hit and he was swept underwater;"
"Maybe I was stupid for a moment, or maybe I saw that he had the same dream as me, so I jumped into the sea to save him."
"I have good water skills. I caught him in such chaotic currents. The anchor chain broke one of my legs."
"The two of us were also carried to an uninhabited reef by the waves. I left all the food to him and placed a large bag of treasures beside me."
"After about seventy days of this, that kid finally couldn't bear it anymore, because I lied to him before and said that what I left here was also food."
"He was about to attack me with a knife. To be honest, I couldn't move at all."
"The last thing was easy. He burst into tears after discovering the truth. Thinking about it, he was still cute as a child."
"Later we encountered a passenger ship and we were saved. I stopped being a pirate and opened this Barati."
"Now, that bastard probably feels indebted, so he stays here all the time!"
At this point, Zhefu sighed:
"Take him away if you can. I don't want to receive any more complaints from female customers!"
"I see!"
After hearing the story between the two of them, Xin had a great change in his view of Sanji. He originally thought he was a lecherous cook, but later he became a kind-hearted and lecherous cook when he served people food. Now, he probably has a kind-hearted and grateful heart. cook.
Turning around to leave, he did not forget to add one last sentence:
"I'll ask you to take care of my captain these two days, so that he and Sanji can have better contact."
Mainly because we couldn't afford it, we shook our heads, put away our little thoughts, and left after receiving a positive reply.
As soon as they arrived on the first floor, they saw Luffy being forced to drink water by Zoro, while Nami and Nami were laughing.
He walked up and punched Luffy first. Without even thinking, he knew that Luffy had been caught doing something bad. He grabbed Luffy's back collar and pulled him outside.
…
"So that's it! That uncle is really a good person!"
"Idiot! I didn't ask you to lament this!!"
"Anyway, are you sure you want to make Sanji our partner?"
"Yeah, he will be the cook on our ship!"
"Then make good use of the opportunity I've won to do some odd jobs, and try your best to get close to Sanji, Captain!!"
"Oh!! Leave it to me!!!"
"One more thing, I asked the chef here, the staff meals here are free!"
"Staff meals!? Free!!!"
"That's right! Try your best to eat it, Captain!!"
"Oh Si~"
Luffy's eyes lit up and he walked to the kitchen aggressively. Xin followed him slowly back to the dining table where Nami and the other two were sitting.
The food on the table was almost eaten. Zoro and Usopp were leaning back on their chairs leisurely and chatting. Only Nami thoughtfully left some food for the letter.
"What was our ninja-sama busy with just now?"
Pushing a piece of steak in front of Xin, Nami asked curiously:
"And Luffy, is he really going to be here for a year?"
"We just went to find our new partner!"
Shin took the steak and started eating it immediately. The food here was indeed great. He also didn’t forget to answer Nami’s question:
"As for Luffy, if everything goes well, his part-time job will be over soon!"
…
Three days passed in a row, Luffy was still working, and everyone had no choice but to stay here. Johnny and Joseph had been responsible for guarding the ship, and they did not forget to pack some food for them every time they returned.
Logically speaking, except for Nami, the rest of the Straw Hats should not have such financial resources to spend money here all the time.
The treasures taken from Buggy agreed to be divided equally, and their share was left on the island to help the citizens rebuild the town.
It was agreed before the war that all the Black Cat Pirates' treasures would belong to Nami.
Xin's small coffers were also emptied by Nami, not to mention Luffy and Zoro, and Usopp only prepared some change.
but! Under the temptation of Nami's beauty and Shin's occasional Transformation Technique and illusion, everyone's consumption was paid by Mr. Sanji!
But tonight, Nami quietly drove Johnny and Joseph's boat away from the Mellie. She was reading the letter on the ninjutsu scroll under the moonlight on the observation deck and heard the movement.
A Shadow Clone was assigned to guard the boat. The letter gathered the Chakra at the soles of his feet and followed the boat quietly.
The two of them had talked once before in the night, about Nami's hometown and the story of Arlong. Now Nami left the Meili alone. Xin was actually a little afraid that Nami left quietly.
"Hopefully not."
"Have more confidence in your partner Nami!"
