Paper Fruit One Piece - Chapter 24
Chapter 24 Encounter revenge for so-called betrayal
“Thank you, thank you so much.”
After eating, Gin who finally came back alive burst into tears.
“Hey, chef! What’s your name?”
Luffy, who jumped out of the window, stood carelessly beside them.
“Be our partner and be the chef on our Pirate Ship!”
“My name is Sanji, the sous chef here.”
“I won’t get on your boat.”
However, with a cigarette in his head, blond hair, and his hair covering his left eye, only his right eye and right eyebrow were exposed. The waiter-shaped man with his eyebrows rolled up refused Luffy’s invitation without hesitation.
“Because I have a reason to work here.”
“I reject your refusal!”
······
“Hey hey hey, listen well to people…”
“What’s the reason?”
“I will not tell you,”
“Didn’t you let me listen to you well?”
“……..I beat you!”
However, they were all men from the sea anyway, and the three of them had a conversation after a while. When it comes to the sea, when it comes to adventure, when it comes to dreams, they even get excited! The old man who quietly watched all this behind the third-floor window showed a nostalgic smile. And in the restaurant:
“Luffy is gone again, so he won’t get into trouble again, right?”
Facing Nami’s concern, Roman cut a piece of bread and put it in his mouth.
“No, my investigative paper crane is watching outside. Luffy is trying to recruit a chef.”
“That’s good,”
Nami seemed to have no appetite, and smiled reluctantly.
“With Roman here, I believe the Straw Hat Pirates will be able to go on…”
“What are you talking about?”
Roman frowned, Nami’s strangeness surprised him. Could it be the girl’s ‘that’ coming? Trying to recall the vague plot ten years ago. However, it is clearer that the war is on top, Doflamingo, New world and so on behind, the plot of the East Sea is too long…
Remember it seems like–
“You left me and eat delicious food here!”
Luffy, who didn’t know when he came back, sat down at Roman’s table, pulled a plate and was ready to eat.
“I found a good chef and will be able to invite him soon…”
Snapped!
However, Luffy was screwed up by the ‘relentless iron hand’ behind him before he was halfway, and there was an unhappy voice from the chef named Sanji.
“Aren’t you a waiter? What are you doing sitting here?”
“Besides, I won’t be a pirate! Because…”
“Isn’t this a good opportunity?”
An old voice came from the owner, chef, and captain of this restaurant: an old man with a broken leg.
“Go be a pirate,”
He looked at the blond curly eyebrows because of Sanji’s chef.
“This shop doesn’t need you anymore!”
“What? Old smelly man…”
————————
Clang,
“No… it’s not good, it’s the Pirate Banner of Admiral Krieg!”
In the “Baratie Restaurant”, everyone is in a mess! If the contrast between the Going Merry and the ‘Baratie Restaurant’ is like a chicken next to a big goose, then the pirate ship that appears now is as huge as a hunting dog!
“It’s an exaggeration…”
Looking at the slowly approaching giant ship, Roman had to admit that the navigation of this world did indeed reveal a lot of black technology! This kind of creation like an ocean-going cruise ship can actually be made of wood. but:
“Wait, why does it look tattered?”
“Is it because of the windstorm…”
“Then you need to say, it doesn’t look like artificial, right?”
Such a huge ship like an “aircraft carrier” at sea is now slowly docking next to the restaurant on the sea like a ghost ship. Just when everyone was in doubt:
Bang,
The door was pushed open, and the man named Gin went and returned. But this time, he also supported a tall man:
“Ah ah ah ah~~!!!”
“‘Admiral’ Krieg?”
“We are dead–”
From the exclamation of passers-by, Roman and others easily knew the identity of the visitor. but:
“It seems that this Captain Krieg is unlucky.”
Not only is it unlucky, the huge ship outside is in tatters, and Krieg, as the captain, is also half-dead.
Roman took a visual inspection. The opponent was about 2.5 meters tall, with light purple hair and a turban on his head. Wearing a loose shirt with the outline of weapons and armor under the shirt, black boots, and a large cloak.
“very scary····”
As the saying goes, ‘A lean camel is bigger than a horse’! Even if it is down, the 2.5-meter-old ‘little giant’ still brings a wild impact to everyone in the restaurant, such as:
“I… I go to the upper and lower toilets…”
Nami quietly backed away with a scared look on her face.
——————
“…I’m sorry… Can you please… Some food and water…”
A tall captain with an exhausted look was supported by Gin beside him, begging feebly.
“I have money… I give it all…”
·········
“Hahahahaha~~”
The strong chef who was still scared just now laughed wildly. Seeing that the pirate who dominates the entire East Sea is so weak, what else is there to be afraid of?
“Food and water? Don’t even think about it, call the Navy!”
“Isn’t that lieutenant nearby? The opportunity to get promoted and wealthy is right in front of him, and he will definitely not let it go.”
Gin, who was supporting Krieg, shouted anxiously.
“We are guests! This time we have money, ten times or a hundred times!”
“Huh, then continue to burn and looting after you recover?”
The sturdy chef took out a kitchen knife with disdain, a murder weapon that was 1.5 meters long!
“People like you will definitely attack our restaurant after eating. Don’t even think of getting a drop of water—”
Snapped,
The tall pirate leader knelt on his knees, threw his five bodies on the ground, his head directly on the floor! Humble prayers echoed in the restaurant.
“··· I beg you… any leftovers are okay,”
“We will leave obediently if we eat, please…”
“captain!”
“Don’t do this, you don’t have to do this!”
Seeing his own captain bowed so humbly, Gin next to him was so excited that tears were left.
——It’s a wolf extinction.
Roman watched the play quietly. When these ‘characters’ appeared in front of his eyes, his long-lasting memories gradually recovered, and the images in his mind slowly corresponded to the real characters.
Krieg, a pirate who has been sitting in the dominant position of the East Sea for a long time.
He is pretentious, ungrateful, and cruel, even his subordinates can be killed, and he is a person who is hateful from beginning to end. He think he is invincible in the world, arrogant, ruthless, and despicable. but:
Roman doesn’t hate him.
At least as a ‘pirate’, he did exactly what the ‘pirate’ should do!
Conspiracy, ruthlessness, humility, perseverance…
It wasn’t anyone. When he first entered Grand Line, he encountered the world’s top combat “Hawkeye”, and was beaten by him. After more than 50 battleships and nearly 10,000 men were annihilated! Still have the courage to continue to challenge Grand Line.
Whether it’s the frog at the bottom of the well or arrogant.
At least Roman admires this perseverance.
but–
Bang!
“Step aside.”
One kick kicked the strong chef who was in the way to the side, and the man named Sanji put food and water in front of Gin.
“Give it to your captain.”
“thanks, thanks····”
Seeing the man named Krieg gulping down the food, the other chefs were anxious!
“Sanji, are you crazy!”
“For this man named Krieg, betrayal is like drinking water…”
“He will never leave obediently after eating, he will definitely—”
Bang! !
In fact, it doesn’t take long.
Krieg, who had just swallowed the last bite of food, stood up abruptly and threw his ‘savior’ Sanji away with a punch!
“Huh, come alive.”
Regarding the ‘digestive system’ of the world’s powerhouses, Roman no longer wanted to complain. but:
“Nice restaurant, I want this ship!”
Is this betrayal a little too soon?
——————
On the other side, aboard the Going Merry.
“Yo, Sister Nami, are you back?”
Yosaku and Johnny, who were staying behind the ship, looked at Nami who jumped onto the deck, and asked suspiciously.
“Where are the other big brothers?-Isn’t that the Krieg Pirates next to it? Shall we rush away…”
“They are watching over there, let me come over and set up the anchor first!”
Nami directed two third-rate pirate hunters to raise their anchors and turn, while swiftly scouting around on the deck, collecting all the humble paper cranes. ——These are Roman’s creations, usually just a normal paper crane, but if necessary, it can immediately become Roman’s “eyes”.
puff,
The match passed, the jumping flame fell on these paper cranes, and the raging flame swallowed these little things!
“Sister Nami, next…”
“You stand at the bow, I want to change clothes.”
Facing Nami who pulled her clothes up, although Yosaku and Johnny couldn’t figure out why this ‘big sis’ changed clothes now, they immediately turned around instinctively, and as a result—
push!
Thump, thump,
“Goodbye.”
Going Merry, which had been anchored and set sail, turned vigorously, slid the boiling water and galloped to the side!
“This this……??”
“Hurry up and notify the other big brothers!”
——————
“I can get out easily while they are there watching the show.”
“Hahaha, it’s a good harvest~~”
On the distant Going Merry, a girl named Nami turned the rudder, this sea area would not go wrong for her with her eyes closed.
“I didn’t expect Roman to have so much money on board~~”
“More than 30 million Baileys, I’ve made a profit!”
“The goal of 100 million has been achieved,” the girl raised her head and smiled.
“You should be a little more happy, Nami.” With a smile, liquid slipped off her face.
“Sorry…….”
“Sorry, Roman, Luffy, Zoro…”
“And Usopp, you are not a liar, I am!”
The girl lowered her head, bit her lip, letting the ticking crystal fall on the deck.
“I still steal your boat, steal your money, and betray the me whom you trust…”
“As a partner?”
