Although he complained about old man Zhepu once, in his heart, Sanji was really worried to death.
After smiling bitterly, he gently put the cigarette butt aside and put it out.
Then he went to the sink to wash his hands, rolled up his sleeves, and stood in front of the processing table with a heavy heart.
He picked up an onion and before he cut it, Sanji's eyes were a little blurry.
"Old man, has my bad luck... been passed on to you?"
He couldn't help but let out a grunt, then raised the knife and quickly divided the onions.
Processing them one by one, Sanji cut the vegetables again and again, muttering softly.
"As soon as I arrived in the East China Sea, I could encounter a shipwreck with you.
I was lucky enough to survive a shipwreck and ended up living on a small island. However, there was not enough food, so I had to rely on you to eat one of my own legs to survive.
Being a pirate is too dangerous, so pursue your dream. You disband the pirate group and open a sea restaurant.
In the end, even with this, we still managed to meet the Celestial Dragons..."
Having said this, Sanji put the chopped onions into the cooking basket and marinated them with the beef.
While gently massaging the beef with his hand, Sanji looked towards the window.
In his eyes, the Barati Restaurant was shrouded in shadow, and the largest ship he had ever seen in his life had docked next to the Barati Restaurant.
"Damn it, old man, your legs are not suitable for kneeling!"
Sanji suddenly cursed. When he thought of Zhepu's legs, Sanji's impression of the Celestial Dragons became even worse.
Those guys who are born to make people kneel down are really disgusting... ugh?!
Suddenly, Sanji was stunned. He suddenly felt as weightless as if he was riding in an elevator!
At the same time, he looked out the window and felt that the angle of view was getting higher and higher!
Sanji rushed to the window. He looked out the window in panic. In his eyes, Barati Restaurant actually flew up!
!
At the same time, on the deck, Zhepu stood up from the ground in a panic.
"what's the situation!
!”
He yelled something, then hurriedly lay down on the side of the ship, staring at the sea that was getting further away.
"This is the power of the Gravity Fruit, and it's the officers on the Black Bird who are doing it!
But why did he do this? Could it be...could it be...?!
"
Before Zhepu could express all his guesses, the Barati Restaurant had quickly reached the height of the Black Bird.
Standing on the boat, Zhepu could already see the figure wearing the black bird uniform below and the large group of capes hanging together.
He didn't dare to speak anymore, talking nonsense would really lead to death, so he quickly stopped the noise of the men beside him, then faced Gawain's direction and knelt on his deck again.
Beside Gawain, Yixiao rubbed his face with his left hand, and gently pressed down with his right hand.
Suddenly, Barati Restaurant landed in the Blackbird's rest area, adjacent to the forest and orchard.
After putting down Barati, he rubbed his face with a smile and said to Gawain.
"Sir, since they are chefs, let them stay near the forest with the hospital.
Doctor Kuleha and Doctor Kurokas need to grow medicinal materials in the forest, and our future chef also needs a piece of land to grow vegetables and fruits."
"That's right."
Gawain nodded slightly, then he raised his hand and pointed at the Fish-Man Pill.
"Dan, take the time to renovate the Barati restaurant, expand its main body, and cut the keel of the Barati ship into the shape of the restaurant's door."
"Giao!"
As soon as Gawain finished speaking, before Mermaid Dan responded, Franky, who was not far away, patted his chest in displeasure.
"Sir, why don't you leave this matter to me? I'm obviously a professional shipwright!"
"Aren't you busy with research recently, Franky, you'd better be a good scientist.
As for the shipwright, Dan is your master’s younger brother and your master’s uncle, so I’ll leave this kind of work to him from now on.”
Gawain chuckled and said to Franky, his words made Franky fall into a dilemma.
Compared with being a scientist, he wants to follow the path of his master and be a good shipwright!
But to be honest, as Gawain handed over more and more work, Franky's scientific research projects also increased.
At this point, scientific research alone has made him extremely busy, and he actually doesn't have much time to repair the ship...
Beside, Mermaid Dan smiled and adjusted his glasses.
"Hey, kid, don't you believe me?
I'm getting old and I don't have the kind of brain you have to study new things. Compared with research and development, down-to-earth work is more suitable for me.
When it comes to ship repairing skills, I won’t be surpassed by you, so you just keep being a scientist!”
Having said this, Mermaid Dan leisurely activated the flotation device, and waved to Spandam standing in the distance.
"Brother Spandam, would you like to accompany me to do the work assigned by the Lord? If you, the Grand Admiral, help, the progress of the project will be improved a lot!"
"Of course, of course, it's a great honor!"
As soon as Mermaid Dan finished speaking, Spandam rushed to Dan's side.
"As long as you are serving the adults, you can just call me!
I, Spandam, just want to shed my blood and sacrifice my life for you!
!”
At this point, the enthusiastic Spandam followed Dan to the maintenance department to look for suitable materials.
At the same time, the Barati Restaurant, which had just landed in the distance, slowly opened its side.
A moment later, Gawain saw the solemn-looking red-footed Zhepu, leading his subordinates who were so nervous that their teeth were trembling, walking up the gangway onto the deck of the Black Bird.
Seeing this, Gawain immediately stood up with a smile.
"You are Red-footed Zep, and you are also one of the best cooks in this sea, right?"
He whispered to Zhepu from a distance, and his words immediately followed the bioelectricity and rushed into Zhepu's ears.
Hearing this, Zhepu immediately wanted to kneel down, but before he could bend his knees, Gawain stimulated him with electric current to keep him going.
Feeling his uncontrollable body, Zhepu's eyes grew wider and wider, and his mouth also twisted.
Ten meters, fifty meters, one hundred meters...
Ahhhh!
What the hell is going on with me? I am about to lead my men all the way to the front of the Tianlong people!
!
Obviously when he gets off the boat, he should kneel down and salute the Tianlong people. This is what he thinks in his head, but his feet are disobedient and disobedient!
!
For a moment, Zhepu walked all the way to Gawain without tears. It wasn't until he stood about twenty meters opposite Gawain that he finally stopped.
Looking at Gawain's smiling face, the sweat on Zhepu's head fell like rain.
It's over, it's really over. My impoliteness this time has already made the Tianlong people sneer!
!
Wait...that smile of the Celestial Dragon...isn't it a sneer?
What is he???
Just as Zhepu became more and more confused, Gawain nodded gently to Zhepu.
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Chef, just relax.
Believe me, any sensible diner will not be rude to a good chef."
As Gawain spoke, he came to Zhepu. He stretched out his right hand and patted Zhepu's shoulder gently.
"The world is actually very simple, everyone is constantly looking for satisfaction.
The kind of satisfaction is different for everyone. Having enough food, clothing and clothing, and being successful are all one of them.
For me, being able to eat more exquisite food is quite satisfying.
Before that, I was fortunate enough to eat delicious dishes filled with emotions prepared by excellent chefs at the Navy G·8 branch.
Today, I hope you, Mr. Zhepu, can help me find that feeling again.
If you can do it, then I really want to thank you for filling a gap in my heart.
Don't let me down, Zhepu."
After the words fell, Gawain smiled and patted Zhepu's shoulder again. After just two pats, he let go of Zhepu's shoulder.
Across the way, looking at Gawain's attitude, Zhepu couldn't hold back what he wanted to say.
But before he could say anything, he saw Gawain wave his hand again.
"Go on, Zhepu, go directly to what you do best and deal with those dishes.
Facing me is no easier than cooking, and I don’t need any etiquette from you, so there’s no need to kneel down and go prepare for tonight’s banquet.”
After saying that, Gawain waved his hand again, and Lu Qi behind him immediately came to Zhepu's side calmly.
Without giving Zhepu a chance to speak, Lu Qi directly led Zhepu and his people back to the Barati Restaurant.
After Zhepu walked away in confusion, Rayleigh asked Gawain while carrying a wine bottle.
"Little Gawain, you didn't look like you were inviting a chef just now, did you?
Hey, don’t mess around, if we lose our chef, we will really have to go back to the G·8 branch to snatch Jonathan’s wife!”
"Haha, how could that happen?"
Gawain sat back on the sofa in a funny manner. He took the cigar from Shiliu and said to Rayleigh.
"As for my attitude towards Zhepu, it is really a helpless move. This is the East China Sea, which is different from the Grand Line. Zhepu is also different from each of you.
You guys are all people who have seen the world. Even little Chopper has the eldest doctor Doriel taking care of him behind his back.
Although I have my own plans when recruiting you, in general, I need to be honest with you.
But Zhepu is different. He did not have as deep a background as you, nor did he have your strength, nor did he have the vision that you should have.
Compared with you guys who have higher eyes than the top, Zhepu's heart, apart from being dedicated to food and his adopted godson, stayed in the shallow well of the East China Sea.
If I were enthusiastic about him at this time, or even invited him directly, he would probably be frightened into a stress reaction when he saw the peak showdown between us and Garp just after jumping out of the well.
So, I have to give him some time to stabilize himself through cooking.
After he was done and we had tasted his dishes, I could use the chef's confidence in his cooking skills to show him my appreciation for him.
Since even Garp likes what he cooks, his cooking skills are absolutely superb.
To be honest, I’m starting to look forward to it, haha!”
"cut!"
As soon as Gawain finished speaking with a smile, Rayleigh couldn't help but snorted.
I saw him take a sip of wine and then shake his head.
"You are such a dirty-minded person, you are full of evil intentions, and your words are full of calculations.
Damn it, how did I get on the boat in the first place? Is it still too late for me to carry the boat and run away now?"
"Want to get off the ship?
late!
Better have a drink, old man!"
Faced with Rayleigh's teasing, Gawain picked up the wine bottle and touched it with him. On Gawain's right side, Uta, who did not participate in the battle like the female cadres, so did not need to go back to the room to wash up and put on makeup, trotted into Gawain's arms.
.
"Uncle, you guys fought so fiercely just now. After watching it, I couldn't help but write a new song. I'll sing it to you tonight!"
"Um."
Gawain pinched Uta's cheek.
"When you say that, I look forward to it even more."
"Great!"
After being praised by Gawain, Uta rubbed Gawain's arm with satisfaction. Then, she trotted back to the recording studio and began to organize her music score.
And while Uta was sorting out the music score, Zhepu had already returned to his ship.
Without him opening his mouth, Lu Qi had already started to order his men skillfully.
Obviously he was still standing there in confusion, but under Lu Qi's order, his men gradually came out of their nervousness, and then returned to the kitchen and started busy.
And until Luqi left Barati's deck, Zhepu was able to come out of his daze.
He just stood there and kept beeping.
"Why is this happening? How could this happen? This is different from the Tianlong people I saw in Xiangbo.
I was even prepared to die, but when things happened, what happened to me?
I..."
Just as Zhepu Digu was doing it, another group of people rushed into the Barati restaurant.
This is when the original chef team of the Black Bird came to visit!
As the former head chef of the Black Bird, his name had never even appeared. At this time, his heart was full of loss and anger.
He was disappointed because he was about to be overthrown!
The anger is, why should a chef from a small corner of the East China Sea be better than him?
!
Of course, he would never blame Gawain. In his eyes, everything Gawain did was right.
In short, it must be the country bumpkin chef from Donghai who deceived Gao Wensheng!
!
Thinking of this, the former chef who led the people to Zhepu immediately showed a lot of resentment on his face. Before he could reach Zhepu, the former chef had already raised his right hand!
"That's why your name is Red-footed Zhepu!
!”
He cursed loudly, then took two quick steps and picked up Zhepu's collar.
"I am the original chef of the Black Bird, Lord Gawain sent me to help you!
I will obey all orders of Lord Gawain, but I don't obey you!
I will give you a hand, but only in the next half hour. If you can't prove that you are better than me in this half hour, then get off the stove and go to the corner to do the work of piers.
Go, did you hear that?
!”
After the words fell, the former chef waved his hand.
"Show me your cooking skills, Zhepu!
If your cooking is not good enough, then I will never let you serve immature dishes to the table of the Holy Dragon Lord!
Lord Gawain is the greatest man in the world. The food I make cannot match his great status.
To be honest, I really hope you are as strong as they say. If you can let adults eat the most exquisite dishes in the world, then even if I take out the trash, my heart will be full of happiness!
So, try your best to prove it to me, Red-footed Zhepu!
!”
After the words fell, the former head chef held Zhepu's collar and stared into Zhepu's eyes.
Facing the fierce eyes of the former chef, Zhepu's brows gradually wrinkled.
The confusion and lack of composure just now disappeared. When his mind returned to the realm of cooking, he finally returned to what Red-footed Zhepu should be!
I saw him grabbing the former chef's hand and speaking calmly and calmly.
“Dishes made with the intention of competing will never be able to satisfy diners, because the satisfaction that diners need is not the kind we pursue in order to win!
If you can come in front of me and say such words to me, then you, as a guy, have definitely not reached the supreme realm of emotional cuisine!
!”
After the words fell, Zhepu relied on his own strength to forcefully pull the former chef's hand from his collar.
"I don't want to prove anything, and I don't need to prove anything. Since Lord Tianlong sent you to help us, then you should do your best to help!
Also, don’t affect my cooking mood, it will confuse the taste of the dishes!
