Sailing: This Bounce-Bounce Fruit is a little different.

"I'm certain they are pirates!"

"So what if they're pirates? Isn't it normal for them to come to [Baratie]?"

"Keep your voices down, they're looking over here..."

"..."

At the central round table in the restaurant.

"What an awful environment..."

Hearing the whispers around him, Usopp sat somewhat awkwardly on the ornate white chair and said, "How about we pack some food and eat it on the ship?"

"Don't pay attention to their stares, Usopp..."

Seeing this, Ke Ya smiled and reassured them, "Actually, this is just an ordinary restaurant. Even if it's a bit fancy, it can't hide its true nature. Since we're here to eat, we are the most honored guests..."

"If you're too reserved, you won't be able to appreciate the deliciousness of the food..."

"I...I know..."

Usopp scratched his head, picked up the knife and fork on the table, and began to eat the steak in front of him. But as soon as he took a bite, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise and exclaimed, "What kind of meat is this? How can it be so delicious!"

"Not only is the meat juicy and sweet, but it also has a chewy texture like top-grade beef..."

"If you can't describe it, then describe it less..."

Unable to suppress a chuckle, Huang Hai put down his knife and fork, and said with a smile, "But in terms of taste, it is indeed very delicious, and it replenishes energy better than half a meal. It must be the meat of some kind of sea king..."

"Judging from this, it has to be said that the chefs here do indeed possess a very high level of culinary skills. After all, sea king meat is not something that ordinary people can handle..."

"Hai! The invitation you mentioned before..."

Nami looked curious, before she could finish speaking.

"waiter!!"

Bang! A loud thud as the table was slammed, accompanied by a defiant roar, suddenly echoed throughout the restaurant.

Chapter Seventy-Five: The Tragic Felton!

When everyone heard this, they all turned to look.

Near the west side of the restaurant, a burly man with a thick beard slammed his hand on the table, pointed at the plate in front of him, and angrily shouted, "Does your restaurant have a habit of serving soup with insects in it?"

First, let me correct your form of address.

At the dining table, Sanji, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, slightly curled eyebrows, and dressed in a black suit, interrupted, "I'm not a waiter, but the sous chef here."

"As for the waiters you wanted, they were all fired a couple of days ago..."

"Are you kidding me? Who asked you that? I was talking about the bugs in the soup!"

Seeing that this guy was still staring at his female companion and fawning over her, Navy Branch Lieutenant Commander Felton was furious. He pointed at Sanji's nose and shouted, "As a top restaurant in the East Blue, is this what you serve your guests?"

"Excuse me... sir..."

Glancing at the fly floating on the soup, Sanji immediately understood what was going on and lazily replied, "I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not very familiar with insects..."

ha?

Seeing that the other party didn't take him seriously, Felton got angry and punched the table hard, smashing the food and the table to pieces.

Immediately, Felton looked at Sanji with a gloomy expression.

"You seem to have no idea who I am? I'm Lieutenant Commander Bronze Fist Felton of the Navy..."

"..."

not far away.

Upon seeing this, Zoro seemed displeased and turned to look at Huang Hai.

Should we intervene?

For some reason, he felt extremely annoyed by the navy personnel he had encountered recently.

"Need not…"

Seeing Sanji's familiar figure, Huang Hai said with interest, "Don't underestimate him. He's just a branch lieutenant colonel; it should be a piece of cake for him..."

Ok?

Upon hearing this, Nami and the others looked at Sanji with curiosity.

Could this be the partner that Hai wants to invite?

west side.

He seemed not to have heard the other party's shouts.

At this moment, Sanji stared at the mess of food scattered on the ground, his face gradually turning cold. He looked up at Felton and said indifferently, "...If we just remove that bug, can't we drink the soup?"

"Why waste..."

"Huh? What did you say?"

Seeing that the other party was so oblivious, Felton roared, "I'm a customer who paid for the meal! How dare you, a mere chef, be so arrogant?!"

Having said that, he swung his right fist, gloved with a bronze glove, and punched Sanji hard in the head.

This scene immediately startled his female companion.

"Stop! Felton! Forgive him..."

However, before she could finish speaking...

"Can money...fill your stomach?"

The black leg, which had become a blur, suddenly slammed down like a bone-chopping cleaver, striking Felton's head with tremendous force. Felton had no time to react and collapsed heavily to the ground in excruciating pain.

Immediately following, one foot... two feet... three feet... a continuous stream of rapid and heavy kicks, falling like a pile driver.

Felton was kicked so badly that he was covered in blood and blood, and was in a dazed state.

He never imagined that he, a dignified naval branch major who usually inspired fear in others simply by announcing his name, would be beaten like this by a cook in the cafeteria...

Suddenly.

The other chefs who came out to watch the commotion gasped in alarm when they saw Sanji make his move.

"Hey! Stop Sanji right now, or someone'll die!!!"

"Sous Chef, stop right there!!"

"Calm down! Please calm down, sous chef—"

at last.

Despite the combined efforts of the chefs, they managed to dissuade him.

The usually indifferent Sanji gradually calmed down, reached out and grabbed Felton's bloodied cheek, easily lifting him up with one hand, his words chilling as he said:

"Remember! Going against the cook at sea is tantamount to suicide..."

"Never...waste food in front of me!!"

Yo!

Seeing this, Zoro couldn't help but affirm, "Looks like he's a pretty good cook. This is the person you wanted to invite, isn't he..."

"I just wonder how good his cooking is..."

Nami and the others also started discussing it.

"But he really is cool, both his kicking skills and his indifferent tone..."

"Tch! I still think my gun is faster..."

"She's definitely a good person to invite..."

"Hai! Is that him?"

"Hmm... but don't rush it."

Seeing everyone looking at him, Huang Hai smiled and said, "Although he is indeed my target, whether he is willing to join us is another matter. You should also consider whether there are any other alternatives..."

"Understood…"

At this time.

Paddy, the chef who had come out of the kitchen with a good mood and a friendly smile, was stunned by what he saw in the restaurant. He then pointed at Sanji and shouted angrily, "Sanji! Do you know what you're doing?"

"The customer is king! And don't you know he's a naval lieutenant commander?! Let him go right now..."

"It's you, you damn chef!"

Sanji glanced at it and said, "Don't call me by my first name. By my job title, I'm the sous chef of the restaurant. Don't be so disrespectful."

"You bastard chef, you're not allowed to call me a bastard chef!"

Paddy raised an eyebrow and glared at them, saying, "A restaurant only exists because of its customers! Why would you hurt our esteemed guests?"

"How will this restaurant continue to operate?"

"So what if they're customers?"
