"Uno? This name sounds familiar."
Sanji first murmured when he heard Uno's name.
I seem to have heard some guests discussing this name.
But for Sanji, the only things that interested him were beauties and food. He didn't care at all at that time. Sanji was also not interested in whether Uno had other identities.
Compared to other identities, what Sanji envied most was that Uno was chosen by that beautiful lady.
"I refuse."
Then, Sanji rejected Luffy's invitation.
"I refuse!"
I didn't expect Luffy to be more excited than Sanji.
"Reject what?"
Sanji was a little confused.
"I refuse you to refuse me! You are a good cook, so just be a pirate with me."
Luffy said seriously.
"Can you please listen to what others say?"
Sanji immediately couldn't help himself and transformed into a fanged image.
What's going on in the mind of this guy in the straw hat?
"Are you also pirates? Why are you gathering your companions?"
At this moment, Ajin seemed to have thought of some painful memories, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Yes, we are going to the Grand Line."
Luffy raised his head and said loudly.
"..."
Ajin's face turned extremely pale, even uglier than when he was hungry just now.
"Since you're still looking for a cook, there aren't enough people to go to the Grand Line."
Ajin said suddenly.
"This guy is the sixth one."
Luffy pointed at Sanji and smiled.
"Why include me?"
Sanji takes on the image of fangs.
"I'm Akin from the Krieg Pirates.
I don't think you are bad people. Let me give you a piece of advice: it's best not to go to the Grand Line. You are still young, and there is no need to rush.
The Grand Line is just a stretch of sea after all. How can pirates stop being pirates?"
Akin looked at Luffy and Uno.
"You went to the Grand Line, and you got scared?"
Uno looked at Ajin.
This is not a mockery, but rather a bit of pity.
The Krieg Pirates were also unlucky. As soon as they entered the Grand Line, they ran into one of the top fighters in the pirate world.
Seven Warlords of the Sea, the world's greatest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk.
I still don't know why he could be chased all the way to East Blue by a figure of Hawkeye's level.
"..."
Faced with Uno's words, Ajin had nothingto refute.
He was, indeed, frightened.
That man is not human.
"Have you been to the Grand Line? Do you know anything about it?"
Luffy looked at Ajin with great interest.
"No, I don't know anything, and I don't understand anything. That's why it's scary!"
Ajin covered his forehead in pain.
They really hadn't even seen much of the Grand Line before the huge fleet was completely destroyed by that man.
"Well, never mind. I'm definitely going to the Grand Line anyway."
Luffy looked at Akin's painful expression and didn't intend to ask any more questions, just grinned.
"Anyway, I'm just giving you some advice."
Ajin smiled helplessly and then stood up.
"Well, goodbye, Mr. Sanji. Thank you so much; you are my savior.
This fried rice is the best meal I have ever had in my life.
Can I come next time?"
Jin jumped onto the raft he came from and looked at Sanji with a grateful smile.
"You can come anytime you're hungry."
Sanji smiled.
"Hey! The odd-job boy!"
At this moment, a loud shout was heard.
"Uncle!"
Luffy looked at Zeff, who appeared behind them, with cold sweat on his forehead.
Luffy was poor and had low aspirations. He owed the other party money, so he was very afraid to face Zeff at this time.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Sanji; you'll be scolded for letting someone like me eat for free."
Ajin looked at Sanji, his face full of apology.
"What are you talking about?"
Sanji calmly threw the plate and spoon that Jin had eaten from into the sea.
"This way, there will be no more evidence or reason to be scolded. Let's go, Jin."
Sanji's mouth curled up.
"Hehehe."
Luffy grinned; he wanted Sanji to board his ship more and more.
And Zepp just watched coldly.
The relationship between him and Sanji is like that of father and son, and as a chef, his philosophy is the same as Sanji's.
How could he be mad at Sanji for letting these pirates eat for free?
Sanji, that brat, was just trying to make those freeloading pirates feel at ease.
"Don't get caught by Marine again, Jin."
Looking at Jin, who was spreading the sail and preparing to leave, Sanji smiled.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Sanji. I will never forget your kindness."
Ah Jin knelt on the raft and bowed to Sanji.
Then the sail sailed away.
"Come to think of it, you've been invited by them, right? Sanji, why don't you just follow them and become a pirate?
You are not needed here anyway."
At this time, Zhepu suddenly spoke.
"Huh? What did you say, old man?"
Sanji frowned when he heard this.
"That's great; we got permission, so you can be a pirate with us!"
Luffy was overjoyed.
"I'll say it again, I'm not going to be a pirate! You old bastard, I'm the sous chef of this restaurant."
Sanji yelled with a twitching eye.
Zhepu said nothing but just glanced at Uno.
When he saw Uno, Zhepu didn't recognize her. After all, a photo is just a photo.
Combined with simple photos, even if the real person appears in front of you, not many people can recognize him/her immediately at first glance.
But the moment he heard Uno's name, Zhepu recognized it.
East Blue's new super rookie, the owner of Conqueror's Haki, 'Uranus' Uno!
Although with Zeff's strength and experience, even after sailing on the Grand Line for a year, he still doesn't know what kind of power Conqueror's Haki is.
But in the era when Zepu sailed.
The sea had not yet completely formed the current balance of power between the three major forces of Naval Headquarters, Shichibukai, and Four Emperors and was in great chaos.
Moreover, the strong men of the older generation have not yet completely died out, and there is a lot of various news.
During his sailing days, what impressed him most was the legendary great pirates, the Golden Lion's jailbreak.
Rumor has it that the legendary great pirate, Golden Lion, possesses the power of Conqueror's Haki.
If this is the case, then it is understandable that the World Economic Times commented on this young man, that the future king of the ocean is about to be born.
A captain recognized by such a man, this silly-looking boy named Luffy should not be a simple person.
Even though they have only been together for a short time, Zeff can see that Luffy is different from the ordinary villain pirates and is a pirate with dreams.
Zeff felt relieved to leave Sanji to such a guy.
Sanji should not bear the guilt and gratitude of leaving the food for Sanji when he cut off his feet and ate them due to food shortage when they were trapped and waste his time here with this old man.
Sanji should pursue his dream.
Only the Grand Line can realize Sanji's dream.
"No matter what you say, I will be a chef in this restaurant until you die!"
Sanji and Zeff finished arguing and finally yelled.
"I won't die. I'll live another hundred years."
Zeff turned and walked into the restaurant.
Knowing Sanji's personality, Zeff knew that his words would not make Sanji leave.
He said this just to tell Luffy and Uno to take Sanji away; he had no problem with that.
Whether they can take Sanji away depends on their ability.
Looking at Luffy, who continued to invite Sanji, Uno turned his head and looked at the sea.
Ajin's raft gradually disappeared from sight.
But Uno knew that soon, he would arrive here with his captain, Krieg.
Along with it came the man.
The world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye, Dracule Mihawk.
Not only does Zoro need to find Hawkeye, but I also have something to ask Hawkeye.
Uno, the corners of his mouth curled up.
