[Sanji's Traits: Black Leg (Dark Purple), Modified Exoskeleton (Adaptive) (Unawakened).]
[Black Leg (Dark Purple): As a chef, his hands are considered his life, so he avoids using them in combat as much as possible. This results in powerful kicking techniques developed through training.]
[Modified Exoskeleton (Adaptive) (Unawakened): 'A 'Lineage Factor' modification carried out by the Vinsmoke Family. After awakening the 'exoskeleton', the body becomes incredibly tough, possessing superhuman 'recovery power'. Even bone fractures can heal quickly. The body's hardness is astonishing, impervious to blades and firearms.
Simultaneously, gains modified 'strength', greatly increasing combat power.']
Sanji, although one of the Straw Hat Pirates' three main combat forces in the original story, strictly speaking, was not a combatant. A chef was Sanji's true profession.
Like Zoro, his position was purely that of a combatant.
And indeed, before awakening his exoskeleton, Sanji's strength was already a tier behind Zoro.
However, after awakening his exoskeleton, Sanji's combat power also received a huge boost.
The exoskeleton could even withstand a slash from one of the Beast Pirates' All-Stars, "Plague" Queen, causing the blade to shatter. Its defense and attack power even surpassed Sanji's own Armament Haki.
Even if a bone was fractured, he could recover immediately by simply pounding his body.
After awakening his exoskeleton, Sanji also defeated "Plague" Queen, reaching a level of strength comparable to a Yonko First Commander.
The strength of the exoskeleton also depended on Sanji's strength when he awakened it. Therefore, an unawakened modified exoskeleton was in an adaptive state. Once Sanji awakened it, it would display a corresponding trait level based on Sanji's strength at that time.
And this modified exoskeleton trait even incorporated all the 'Lineage Factor' modifications injected by Vinsmoke Judge.
Vinsmoke Judge's 'Lineage Factor' modifications on Sanji consisted of four major changes: 'strength', 'recovery power', 'exoskeleton', and 'cold heart'.
However, Sanji's modification only retained the first three, without losing his emotions.
'Strength' included a comprehensive increase in power and speed.
Once this modified exoskeleton trait awakened, not only would he gain an exoskeleton, but also a massive increase in strength, speed, and recovery power.
And an unawakened modified exoskeleton trait could also be loaded.
And the trait system could light it up, just like when Lu En obtained Conqueror's Haki.
Lu En's eyes sparkled.
After awakening, the power displayed by the exoskeleton was even stronger than Sanji's own Armament Haki.
His future physical limit, plus this exoskeleton, his future physique should be comparable to Big Mom's Iron Balloon, or even stronger!
Moreover, after lighting up the modified exoskeleton trait, Lu En could also obtain the 'strength' and 'recovery power' modifications contained within this trait, which Vinsmoke Judge injected.
Based on the original story, this trait was definitely a gold-level trait.
The specific level would be known after Sanji was brought onto the ship and the loading was complete.
As for Sanji, who hadn't learned how to cook for health yet, his culinary skills, as a pure life skill, didn't display any traits.
However, Lu En wasn't a cook, so he never planned to load Sanji's culinary trait.
He only needed to taste Sanji's cooking.
At this moment, Fullbody, who wanted to show off in front of the women through Sanji, clashed with Sanji.
Fullbody, who smashed all the dishes on the table and loudly claimed he wouldn't shortchange the restaurant, had touched Sanji's inverse scale.
"On the high seas, can money fill your stomach?"
Sanji's face was extremely grim. He grabbed Fullbody's face and lifted him up.
Having experienced hunger and despair, Sanji knew all too well what hunger felt like.
"Bang!"
Just then, the restaurant's ceiling suddenly cracked open.
A man with a prosthetic leg, wearing a chef's hat, and Luffy both fell down.
"My ceiling! All your fault, you brat!"
Baratie's owner, Zeff, glared at Luffy.
This brat not only smashed a big hole in his kitchen, almost killing him, but now he also smashed his restaurant's ceiling!
"But Uncle, you broke it yourself, didn't you?"
Luffy yelled.
"A restaurant that treats guests like this, I'm going to contact the government and completely destroy this place!"
Fullbody's face was distorted with rage as he roared.
"Then I'll settle you right here!"
Sanji's face immediately darkened, and he walked towards Fullbody.
"Owner, stop shouting! Quickly stop Sanji!"
The chefs swarmed forward, blocking Sanji while shouting loudly.
"Hey, Sanji, are you causing trouble again!"
Zeff turned his head to look at Sanji.
"Less nonsense, old man."
Sanji, seeing Zeff, calmed down a lot, but his words were still sharp.
"Who are you talking to! Do you want to ruin my restaurant!"
Zeff was enraged. His prosthetic leg heavily kicked Sanji in the face.
"Hmph."
Fullbody smiled, feeling a sense of relief.
But then.
"Bang!"
"You too, get out of here!"
Zeff's prosthetic leg heavily kicked Fullbody to the ground.
"Wh-what's going on? Even the owner is acting like this? These guys, are they really chefs? They're like pirates."
Fullbody lay on the ground, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"Hey, before you leave, remember to settle the bill."
And a faint voice came, making Fullbody break out in even more cold sweat.
What bad luck did he encounter today!
"Lu En? You're here?"
Luffy looked at Lu En and the others, overjoyed.
"Help me pay the bill too. I smashed the kitchen and hit the old man. The old man said I'd have to work for a year to pay off the bill."
Luffy ran to Lu En, clasped his hands together, and begged.
"Isn't that all because of your own foolishness, you idiot?"
When it came to money, Nami wouldn't budge an inch.
"!!!"
The commotion here also caught Sanji's attention. The moment he saw Nami, Sanji immediately dashed over.
"Ah! It's destiny that brought us together, beautiful lady."
Sanji took out a rose, but then he froze.
He saw the beautiful lady grab the handsome man's arm, revealing a sweet smile.
Crack!
Sanji felt his heart shatter.
He was heartbroken.
"Hey, are you alright?"
Usopp looked at Sanji's heartbroken expression and asked.
"I'm fine. I just regret not meeting this lady earlier. You, you must treat this beautiful lady well!"
Sanji looked at Lu En, tears streaming down his face.
He was indeed a lecher, but under Zeff's guidance, Sanji also held absolute respect for women.
Since this beautiful lady had already chosen this man, he could only offer his blessings.
Being unreasonable was not the act of a man.
"Of course I'll treat her well, right, Nami."
Lu En looked at Nami, who was holding his arm, and smiled.
Lu En could feel Nami's intentions.
"..."
The moment Sanji took out the rose, Nami subconsciously made this move.
At this moment, Nami's pretty face was slightly flushed, but she didn't let go of Lu En's arm. Instead, subconsciously, she held on tighter.
"Bang!"
Just as the restaurant was in chaos, a Marine soldier rushed in.
"Captain Fullbody! It's bad! We let Krieg's subordinates escape!"
The Marine soldier's face was covered in cold sweat.
"What did you say?! How is that possible! When we caught him three days ago, he was almost starving to death, and we haven't given him anything to eat since."
Fullbody's face was filled with disbelief.
"Krieg and his crew?"
"The strongest pirate crew in the East Blue."
...
The other guests in the restaurant heard this name and immediately became agitated.
"The strongest pirate crew in the East Blue?"
Luffy's eyes held a strange glint.
"We are extremely sorry, we..."
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a gunshot, the Marine soldier immediately fell to the ground.
Behind him, a figure holding a pistol slowly walked in.
