A few months ago, on the boundless sea, two people wearing special clothes were flying around in the sky.
They were a man and a woman. The man was wearing a red combat uniform and an even more sexy white-gold cape on his shoulders.
There are two huge numbers 66 on the chest of his sexy red shirt.
Compared with him, the woman next to him seemed a lot more normal.
After all, compared with a man wearing red men's clothing, it's not that strange for a girl to wear pink clothes.
However, there is something conspicuous about this woman, and that is her thighs.
Of course, this woman's thighs are indeed white, long, and sexy, but just like that, they can't be called special.
Just on the front of her thighs, two large black 66 patterns added a certain kind of charm to this girl.
Anyone who sees this girl for the first time will probably focus on the 66 at the top of her thigh while examining her sexy combat uniform.
Then keep thinking, what does that 66 mean?
Is it a record of beheading 66 men, or 66 men beheaded at once???
Closer to home, at this moment, Reiju and Iji of the Vinsmoke family are constantly leaping across the sea.
While running forward, Reiju suddenly frowned for some reason.
"Iji!"
she said.
"You should go back and recover yourself first. I plan to continue tracking Gao Wensheng's traces!"
"Why."
Hearing this, Iji frowned emotionlessly.
"Didn't we already observe it in Mogu Town? The Tianlong man was more decisive than imagined. Mogu Town has already been reduced to ruins.
As for the gold rumored in the newspapers, most of that gold was invested in the Seven Waters Capital by the Celestial Dragons.
As for the remaining gold stored in Golden Town, they have been firmly controlled by members of Black Ice Platform under Xuanniao.
Members of the Black Ice Platform have even reached cooperation with Admiral Sakaski of the Navy, so that under Admiral Sakaski, different lieutenant generals patrol the Golden Town station every week.
In such an environment, we simply cannot steal the gold. No matter how precious the legendary gold is, it cannot be a help to our Vinsmoke family.
On the contrary, it is not suitable for us to have a dispute with Xuanniao right now. My father has been immersed in the research and development of bloodline factors recently and cannot extricate himself.
Therefore, Reijiu, there is no need for you to continue to follow the Black Bird. If you really want to leave the team temporarily, you must give me a reason."
Having said this, Iji looked at Reiju expressionlessly. While staring into Reiju's eyes, he was thinking about the meaning of Reiju's departure.
Facing Iji's scrutinizing eyes, Reiju opened her mouth with the same expressionless expression.
"Admittedly, we can hardly derive special benefit from the places where blackbirds walk.
But I must emphasize one point, Iji.
Haven't you noticed that every time Xuanniao walks through an island, the pattern on it changes a lot!
Just like we have to rush back to our family now to remind our father to allocate his energy and seize an environment that belongs to us in the new pattern of Golden Town.
I highly doubt that the places Gao Wensheng walks through next will also form new ecological environments one after another!
He is very keen on cleaning up the original ecological social environment of the islands, and if we can grasp the dynamics under his rule at the first time, we can get involved in the underground world of those new ecological islands faster than others!
In some ways, our killer strongholds will be wiped out on every island that Gao Wensheng walks through.
This is a harm to us, but if we think about it from another perspective, it is also a harm to every major member of the dark world, including Joker.
If we can integrate the islands that Blackbird has walked through faster than Joker, then we can occupy more market share than Joker and others!"
Having said this, Reiju waved her hand firmly to Iji.
"From now on, we will work separately. You go home and tell your father the news about Mogu Town.
As for me, I want to follow behind the Black Bird and grasp the many territories under the Black Bird's rule as soon as possible.
I will not fight against Xuanniao, nor will I violate Xuanniao's rules.
I just bought some of the houses on the island after Xuanniao left it, and designated it as the future new base of our killer organization!"
After the words fell, Reiju left Iji very simply, and then she flew in the direction of Xuanniao.
Watching Reiju leave, Iji was silent for more than two minutes.
Two minutes later, Iji pursed his lips and continued to rush towards the family.
As for Reijiu, she was slowly hanging behind the Black Bird, more than 300 nautical miles away from the Black Bird, and followed the trajectory of the Black Bird.
In this process, Reijiu also met many new friends.
For example, there are many spies hanging behind Xuanniao like her, such as Baby·5, and Stussy's subordinates.
By following all the way, people like Reiju immediately grasped all the rules under Gawain's rule, and they also immediately integrated their existence into Gawain's rules.
And Reijiu originally thought that she would hang behind Xuanniao like this until Xuanniao returned.
She never expected that a certain change for her... appeared!
…
…
…
In a certain area of the East China Sea, there is a very interesting ship.
On the deck of the ship was a large three-story house!
From a distance, it doesn't look like a ship, but like a floating villa.
This is the famous gourmet destination in the East China Sea, Sea Restaurant Barati!
This restaurant has quite a...probably...a long history.
To put it simply, this restaurant has been established for eight years.
When talking about this restaurant, we have to talk about its owner, the Chef Pirates, thirty years ago, who was also one of the legends of the East China Sea!
As a pirate who was able to get bounties in the era of Rocks, he was also a pirate who was able to break into the Grand Line and escape unscathed in that era.
Red-footed Zepp, the captain of the Chef Pirates, is naturally regarded as a lifelong idol by countless East China Sea pirates.
You know, thirty years ago was incomparable to the era five years later when bounties soared and Bucky the Clown was worth more than three hundred million.
When converting bounties from thirty years ago to today, at least a zero must be added to the end of the number to make it appear appropriate.
In this way, Red-footed Zhepu is also a fairly powerful being.
As for why he is called Red-footed Zhepu, it is because he has extremely good kicking skills.
As long as he kicks the enemy with his feet, he can smash the enemy into pieces and cause tons of blood to flow out!
After Zhepu returned from the Grand Line, this statement became the mainstream in the East China Sea, and everyone regarded Zhepu as one of the living legends in the East China Sea.
After all, there are too many pirates heading to the Grand Line, and ninety-nine percent of those pirates never return.
Even if the remaining one percent comes back, they will already be in a state of survival. Those people are either disabled or may not even have the strength to walk.
In such an environment, Red-footed Zhepu entered the Grand Line for a full year, and then he actually returned with all his tail intact!
He didn't lack any arms or legs, he just had two more scars. He didn't even lose any of his men!
In this way, Zhepu is not a legend, because there are not many pirates like Zhepu in the East China Sea!
Therefore, before the establishment of the sea restaurant Barati, although Zhepu did not intend to return to the Grand Line, his pirate group was also the dominant one in the East China Sea!
And one day eight years ago, the weather was a little gloomy.
Zhepu led his chef pirate group and robbed a merchant ship coming from the North Sea.
This was no challenge to Zhepu. It didn't take long for Zhepu to kill all the guards and then carry everyone on the ship to the deck.
Facing a large group of people with frightened faces, Zhepu showed a cruel smile.
"Everyone, hahahaha, I am the legendary chef, Red-footed Zhepu!
From now on, you are already my food!
As long as you put all the gold and jewelry in my wok and let me cook it happily!
Your safety can be guaranteed!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhepu sent someone directly to start a routine journey to collect money.
This process is very easy. Merchant ships at sea have long been accustomed to being robbed. Anyway, it is the boss's goods that are lost. If our lives are still there, there is always value in being squeezed by the bosses.
But it was such an ordinary robbery, but it became extraordinary because of the sudden thunder in the darkness.
Just at the moment when the thunder landed, Zhepu vaguely saw a face that showed no fear at all!
The thunder disappeared briefly, but Zhepu still followed the gloomy light and looked at the face.
It was a little boy of about eight or nine years old, wearing a sailor outfit that didn't fit well. He had blond hair and a coquettish hairstyle that covered half of his face.
What is particularly noteworthy is that this child’s eyebrows are curled~.
Seeing the lifeless calm on the child's face, Zhepu became interested and planned to have a chat with this bold boy.
But before he could put it into practice, another thunderbolt struck their merchant ship.
With just one blow, the manic thunder caused enough damage to the merchant ship to sink it.
But this was just the beginning. The violent storm overturned the entire sea in the next moment!
Facing the storm, Zhepu wanted to use his own strength to escape as much as possible.
But somehow, he remembered the deathly silence in that blond boy's eyes!
"Hmph, that kid with the deathly look in his eyes can really die now!"
He did think so, but only for a moment.
The next moment, Zhepu had already rushed towards the blond boy.
After grabbing the blond boy's waist and hugging him tightly in his arms, Zhepu faced the sea that was turned upside down and cursed the boy in his arms fiercely.
"If you look like you want to die at sea, you will be cursed!
Your comeuppance is coming, kid!!!”
Just saying a word, the waves crashed into the sea and Zhepu and Zhepu were knocked into the sea. After a long coma, they miraculously drifted to an unknown island.
There is no food on this island. Apart from sand and stones, there are only two trees with very unpalatable bark.
Why do they know that tree's bark is unpalatable, you ask?
Of course, only those who eat them all will know.
In this way, Zhepu and the blond boy fell into endless hunger. Such hunger made Zhepu dream about eating the blond boy alive.
Even the blond boy himself felt that he would be eaten by Zhepu sooner or later.
If you are really hungry to the extreme, you don’t need any mental construction to eat people.
This went on until the end, when they really started to eat people, and there were only two of them...
So, was the blond boy eaten by Zhepu?
…
Eight years later, in the dining center of Barati, a restaurant on the sea, Zhepu, a red-faced man with red feet, was stepping on the table in front of him with his only remaining foot, shouting to the diners around him.
"Come on, come on, come and guess this question. The one who guesses correctly can get free of charge tonight, haha!!!"
After the words fell, Zhepu laughed and picked up the wine bottle. Just when everyone thought he would drink boldly, until his beard and clothes were dripping with water.
Surprisingly, Zhepu’s drinking movements were extremely slight!
The wine flowed slowly into Zhepu's mouth like a trickle. His beard and clothes were as neat and new as ever.
Seeing this scene, a helpless sixteen-year-old boy not far away wiped his face depressedly.
"Even if the old man is drunk, he will never get his chef uniform dirty."
After saying that, the young man smiled, picked up the wine bottle, and touched one with the old man. At the same time, the diners spoke one after another.
"Zhepu, you have told this story ten thousand times!
Everyone knows that you saw off your own leg and ate it!
Although this is really a heroic thing, no matter how heroic it is, it won't be more interesting if you tell it ten thousand times!
You just want to give tonight’s dinner a free meal!”
After the diners roared, they laughed again and started drinking with Zhepu.
At the main seat, seeing the happy faces of the diners, Zhepu blinked emotionally.
This is the diner who deeply loves his cooking and is also his lifelong friend.
I... really can't bear to leave them!
But even if you can’t bear it, some decisions still have to be made!
With this determination, Zhepu put down his wine glass and continued to yell at everyone with an moved expression.
"Hahaha, yes, I just want to waive the order today!
The diners who can be invited to our restaurant today are all our regular customers. Of course I want to treat you to a big meal.
Because tomorrow, Sea Restaurant Barati will be officially disbanded!!!”
"Long live!"
"Boss a treat!"
"Nice job...eh?"
"Wait a minute, is there something wrong?"
As soon as Zhepu finished speaking, people around him were celebrating, but they suddenly reacted.
Did Zhepu just say that Sea Restaurant Barati is about to be disbanded?!!
boom!!!
Suddenly, someone slammed the table in front of me.
"Hey, old man Zhepu, what do you mean?
Are you, old guy, about to give up your life?"
"Cap!!!"
Seeing the old guy getting up to fight, Zhepu yelled with anger on his face.
"You bastard, come on, don't break my table!"
"It's just a table, the worst I can do is give you one from my warship!
Old guy, you'd better answer my question quickly, are you sure you want to break up?
If you don’t open a restaurant, then where will I go to eat such delicious food!!!”
As one of the most loyal diners of Barati at Sea Restaurant, Garp's question represented the problems of most diners. So after he finished speaking, all the diners present looked at Zep.
Facing the reluctant eyes of the diners, Zhepu shook his head sadly.
“Hey, I’m not joking, the sea restaurant Barati can really only open up to this point.
You all know that the Black Bird is about to pass through the nearby waters. I must take the crew and find a safe place to hide.
After all, although our group of people are chefs, we are also brave men at sea. I, Zhepu, also had a reward order back then!
As for pirates, that Celestial Dragon will kill them without mercy. I want to live a few more years and teach those brats behind me all my craftsmanship!!!"
