Chapter 48 Sea Restaurant
"Wow, what a big fish!"
Luffy said excitedly as he lay on the railing of the Merry and looked at the fish-shaped ship that appeared in front of him.
“It looks like a ship anyway.”
Usopp couldn't help but complain when he saw that Luffy actually mistook the boat for a fish.
"Really? I thought it was a sea king."
Luffy also reacted after hearing Usopp's complaints.
“You can tell it’s a ship at first glance.”
"Yeah yeah"
Johnny and Joseph also started muttering in the back.
"None of your eyes are looking at that, right?"
When Zoro saw that all their attention was on the restaurant on the sea, he was speechless.
"That's right"
Ling Tian was also a little speechless.
Because next to the Merry, a warship was sailing parallel to the Merry towards the offshore restaurant Barati.
"Ah, warship."
“When will it come?”
Luffy turned around and saw the warship parallel to the Merry and was surprised.
Usopp also turned around when he heard Luffy's scream.
As a result, Usopp was not panicked at all when he saw the warship.
Ling Tian was also a little surprised when he saw this.
"Usopp, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid? Why should I be afraid?"
"I am Captain Usopp"
Usopp spoke nonchalantly.
In fact, the reason why Usopp was not afraid was because he had asked Luffy about Lingtian's identity before.
After all, when they were in Xiluobu Village, Ling Tian had a direct chat with Luffy's grandfather.
As a result, Luffy directly threw a bounty order to Usopp.
When Usopp saw Ling Tian's bounty order, his face turned pale instantly, but he turned around and thought that they seemed to be crew members.
Shouldn't they be afraid of their enemies?
So now Usopp doesn’t care at all when he sees the warship, since he has someone as awesome as Ling Tian around.
Ling Tian was puzzled as he saw Usopp showed no fear at all and didn't seem to be pretending.
Has Usopp's personality changed for the better?
However, Ling Tian did not say anything, but turned to look at the warship next to him.
As for Johnny and Joseph, they sneaked back to the room of the Merry.
Because Ling Tian and his friends are pirates, and they are bounty hunters so they don't want to be seen by others.
Although it’s okay if others see it.
"I've never seen a pirate flag before."
"I am Captain of the Navy Headquarters, Iron Fist Hobodi"
"Captain, who are you? Tell me your name."
A naval commander wearing white striped clothes and a pair of tiger fingers on his hands came out.
"I am Luffy"
"I am Usopp"
Luffy and Usopp said their names one after another.
"The pirate flag was just released the day before yesterday."
When Luffy saw Usopp also said his name, he felt that Usopp was trying to steal his position as captain and immediately spoke again.
“I drew the pirate flag.”
But when Usopp heard Luffy's words, he immediately said that he had drawn the pirate flag himself.
When Luffy heard Usopp's words, he looked at Usopp with an unhappy face, but Luffy didn't say anything else.
"What are they competing for?"
The Bloodthirsty Sword hanging on Zoro's waist was also curious about what Luffy and Usopp were competing for?
"Who knows?"
Zoro looked at Luffy and Usopp and thought to himself that he would never be so stupid as to compete with others in such things in the future.
"What are you doing?"
Hobodi looked at Luffy and Usopp, two idiots, with a look as if they were fools.
“I know those two over there.”
"I remember them being a pair of bounty hunters who were targeting small-time people."
Hopodi spoke as he looked at Johnny and Joseph, who were hiding in the room of the Merry with only their heads showing.
"Nani"
Johnny and Joseph were furious when they heard Hobodi say that they were bounty hunters targeting small people.
"Were you finally caught by pirates?"
“It’s so funny!”
Hopodi didn't care about Johnny and Joseph's reactions and continued speaking.
"Let's go quickly"
Just as Hopodi finished speaking, the woman in the red dress came out.
Their destination is also the sea restaurant Bharati.
"Do you dare to say that this is a bounty hunter who targets small people?"
Johnny angrily took out a bunch of bounty warrants from his clothes and scattered them around.
Ling Tian noticed that among the bounty posters Johnny had distributed, one for the fishman had a big cross drawn on it.
"Okay, let's go into the restaurant."
"What an eyesore, sink him"
Hopodi ignored Johnny and directly ordered the bombing of the Merry.
“That guy didn’t even take us seriously.”
"Next time I will make him pay the price"
Johnny and Joseph were immediately angry when they saw that Hopodi didn't even look at them.
Ling Tian walked over to the pile of bounties Johnny had thrown out, picked up a bounty with a photo of a murloc, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"This is the bounty for the fishman Aaron."
Johnny saw Ling Tian picking up a bounty order and explained to Ling Tian, fearing that Ling Tian didn't understand what it was.
"Yeah, but I heard that the fishman Arlong was killed by a big pirate called Buggy Pirates."
Johnny also explained to Ling Tian with some regret
Their original target was the Murloc Aaron. Although they did not have the ability to defeat him now, they believed that one day they would be able to defeat the Murloc Aaron.
Luffy also came over when he heard Buggy's name.
"We should go pick up our navigator."
Ling Tian directly threw Arlong's bounty order to Luffy and spoke.
"Really? Then let's go right away."
Luffy was excited when he heard that Nami could board their ship, and immediately ordered to pick up Nami.
"Stupid, we still need to find a chef first."
When Ling Tian saw Luffy trying to directly control the Merry to pick up Nami, he immediately punched Luffy on the head.
But this time Ling Tian was not covered with armed color domineering.
"I'm telling you guys, are you paying attention to the warship?"
Zoro was speechless as he watched Ling Tian and Luffy talking to each other.
"Ha, why don't you just chop him down?"
Ling Tian looked at Zoro who looked like he was facing a great enemy and said indifferently.
When Zoro told him that he could hear the voice of Wado Ichimonji, Ling Tian guessed that Zoro might have mastered the Zantetsu sword technique.
So this time Ling Tian wanted Zoro to try whether he could cut the warship in half.
"Cut open this warship? Are you kidding me?"
Sauron was also somewhat shocked when he heard Ling Tian's words.
Although his strength had increased a lot after his last battle with Bloodthirsty, he thought that he had not yet reached the point where he could cut a warship in half.
“Interesting, let’s try it.”
After hearing Ling Tian's words, Bloodthirsty was also eager to try.
Ling Tian ignored Zoro and directly threw the mantra he got from the last lottery to Zoro.
Zoro took the mantra thrown by Ling Tian and was eager to try it out. After all, he had never tried to cut a ship before.
"Three Swords Style·Blood Bird·Predation"
Zoro bit the Wado Ichimonji in his mouth, pulled out the Mantra and Bloodsucking, and the blood energy in his body surged. Then he waved a blood-red bird and flew towards the warship.
"Bangdang..."
Six knife marks appeared on the warship, directly dividing the warship into seven sections.
"Amazing"
Luffy's eyes lit up immediately when he saw Zoro cut the warship directly.
“They actually cut the warship apart.”
When Usopp saw Zoro cut the warship into seven sections, his legs immediately began to tremble.
"Of course"
"Yes, you are worthy of being Brother Zoro."
Although Johnny and Joseph were somewhat shocked that Zoro cut the warship in half, as his younger brothers they immediately praised Zoro.
Zoro also found it a little unbelievable when he saw himself cutting the warship in half.
Ling Tian looked at the warship and had expected this effect.
After all, Zoro has already mastered the art of the Zantetsu sword, so it's not a piece of cake to cut a captain's warship in half.
Of course, now Zoro can only cut through warships with the rank of captain. If it is a warship of vice admiral like Garp, Zoro now may only be able to leave a little mark.
"As expected of Zoro"
Bloodthirsty also said this inexplicably.
"Huh, what are you talking about?"
Zoro felt a little strange when he heard Bloodthirsty's inexplicable words.
"No, I mean you are worthy of being my master."
When Bloodthirsty heard Zoro's question, he immediately changed his tone.
Because Zoro chopped down the warship after Hopodi set out, Hopodi, who had just arrived at Barati, didn't know that his warship had been chopped down.
He thought that the sound was the sound of his warship bombarding the Merry.
When the warship was cut down by Zoro, no one noticed that a man secretly rowed away in a boat.
Soon the Merry came alongside the Barati.
The difference between now and the original is that because Zoro cut off the warship, Luffy was not forced to work for Zeff.
Because the Merry was larger and the man had not eaten for a long time, Luffy and his friends arrived at Baratie earlier than that man.
"Meat, meat, meat, I want to eat meat"
Luffy shouted as he pushed open the door of Baratie.
Ling Tian and the others had long been accustomed to Luffy's personality and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
As for Hobodi, who was sitting next to him, his face turned pale when he saw Luffy and the others come in.
They were not sunk into the sea.
But now Hopodi didn't dare to say anything. After all, since they could dodge the bombardment of his warships, their strength must be not bad.
Zoro also saw Hobodi, but he ignored him.
A guy like this is not worth taking action against, unless of course he takes action against himself.
"Meat, meat, meat. Serve the meat quickly."
Luffy shouted as he sat down.
"Hello, guest. Do you have any money?"
A man with a large upper body and a small lower body came up to Luffy and spoke.
“I don’t have any money”
Luffy honestly told Paddy that he had no money.
“If you don’t have money, you’re not a guest.”
Paddy got angry when he heard Luffy say he had no money.
He won't serve customers who have no money.
In his principle, money is God and without money is garbage.
Luffy was also taken aback by Paddy's sudden anger.
"This is the money for our meal. Please also call your chef."
Ling Tian threw a bag of Berry to Paddy and said that he wanted to meet Zhepu.
Paddy took Ling Tian's Berry, counted it, and immediately smiled.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
Luffy was also shocked by Paddy's quick face-changing operation.
"What's wrong with this person?"
Usopp is also a little strange.
Ling Tian and Zoro were not surprised by this. After all, they were not newcomers like Luffy and Usopp.
"Hahahaha, why are you here, kid?"
An old man with a broken leg walked up to Ling Tian and laughed.
"Long time no see, old man Zepu"
Ling Tian was also somewhat happy when he saw Zhepu. He probably only had Zhepu and Garp as his friends in the East China Sea.
"What are you doing here, kid?"
Zhepu sat directly on the chair next to Ling Tian and spoke while stroking his beard.
"Is this your friend? Ling Tian?"
Usopp saw the old man chatting with Ling Tian and asked curiously.
"Ah, this is the captain of the Chef Pirates."
"Red-footed Zhepu"
Ling Tian also introduced Zeff to Luffy and the others.
"Oh, the captain of the pirate group."
"My name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I am the man who will become the Pirate King."
When Luffy heard Ling Tian introduce Zeff as the captain of a pirate group, he also introduced himself next to Zeff.
After Luffy said that he wanted to be the Pirate King, everyone in the restaurant became eerily quiet.
What did they hear?
That Straw Hat Boy actually said he wanted to become the Pirate King?
Hobodi, who was sitting in the corner, was more shocked than anyone else when he heard Luffy's words.
What did this straw hat boy say his name was?
Monkey D. Luffy?
Last name Monkey?
Isn't that the last name of the naval hero, Vice Admiral Garp?
"Hahahaha, Pirate King?"
"You are really courageous, but the Grand Line is not so easy to travel."
Zeff also laughed when he heard Luffy's words.
"cough cough"
“This is my captain.”
When Ling Tian heard what Zeff said, he also coughed and indicated that Luffy was his captain.
"What? This guy is your captain?"
Zhepu also knew Ling Tian's strength, so he was a little shocked when he found out that Ling Tian was a crew member of the guy in the straw hat.
"Yes, we plan to find a chef from you"
Ling Tian directly stated the purpose of his coming here.
After hearing Ling Tian's words, Zhepu thought for a while and thought of his sous-chef - Sanji.
Sanji and his dream are the same, they both want to find the legendary AII blue that possesses all the ingredients from the sea.
"I have a guy I want you to take away."
After thinking about it, Zhepu said to Ling Tian.
"Stinky old man, I don't want to leave here"
A voice came from the side.
I saw a man in a suit swearing at Zhepu.
This is Sanji, the sous chef of Barati, the sea restaurant.
When Sanji heard Zeff say that there was a guy who wanted to be taken away by those pirates, he immediately knew that Zeff was talking about him.
Although he also wanted to go out to sea to find the legendary sea area—All blue
But he has to stay here now, because Zhepu cut off his proud foot in order to save him.
That's why Sanji decided to stay and take care of this man who is better than his biological father.
At least Sanji didn't plan to go out to sea before Zeff passed away.
"Stop talking nonsense Sanji, just go when I tell you to go"
"People like you will only affect my business in my store"
Zeff shouted directly and unceremoniously.
