Chapter 343 The Straw Hat Pirates

Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye. This year's new world is extremely lively.

Those pirates who have just set foot in the New World, a mysterious sea full of dangers and opportunities, with ambitions in their hearts, have started one fierce and almost crazy battle after another with each other in order to fight for the territory that once belonged to the Whitebeard Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates.

Every day, as long as you open the newspaper and read the news, you can see news that pirates who were once famous and feared on the sea were defeated by those fledgling new pirates. These scenes are really shocking and make the situation in the entire pirate world even more turbulent.

Even the Red Hair Pirates, who have always been powerful and famous, were not spared in this chaotic situation and were attacked by other pirate groups from time to time.

Those pirates who wanted to gain benefits from the Red Hair Pirates and make a name for themselves by doing so, completely disregarded the Red Hair Pirates' powerful strength and launched attacks like moths to a flame, forcing the Red Hair Pirates to remain vigilant at all times and deal with these continuous challenges.

However, in this chaotic, noisy and constantly conflicting new world, only Dressrosa and Wano Country under the rule of Weiss are like two peaceful paradises, keeping themselves safe.

Under Weiss's protection, these two places are in good order, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. They are not affected by the crazy pirate fights in the outside world and enjoy rare peace and tranquility.

However, this peace could not last long and was soon broken.

On Punk Hazard Island, after a thrilling battle, the Straw Hat Pirates successfully defeated Caesar.

After the battle, everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, so a grand banquet was held on the island to celebrate this hard-won victory.

Momonosuke and Kin'emon also immersed themselves in this joyful atmosphere. They sat together with the members of the Straw Hat Pirates, with relaxed and happy smiles on their faces, enjoying the joyful atmosphere brought by this hard-earned victory.

Everyone shared interesting stories from the battle, and laughter and cheers intertwined and echoed over the island.

Caesar, Virgo and Monet were tied up and thrown into a corner.

They had all suffered serious injuries in the previous fierce battle with the Straw Hat Pirates, and each of them looked in a miserable state.

Virgo's originally straight posture now became hunched, his clothes were torn and stained with blood, and his face was covered with bruises and scratches.

Monet's appearance was not much better. Her beautiful face was now full of fatigue and pain. Her white feathers were disheveled, her wings drooped limply, and there were several obvious wounds on her body, which were faintly oozing blood.

Ever since Doflamingo was killed by Weiss, Vergo and Monet have always made revenge for him their primary goal, and have been looking for opportunities for revenge.

But they also knew very well in their hearts that Weiss was too powerful. Even sea overlords like Big Mom and Kaido were defeated by him.

The two of them had thought about it carefully in private and realized that even if they practiced for another ten lifetimes, they would probably not be a match for Weiss.

However, the hatred in their hearts was too great for them to let go, so they placed their last hope on Caesar.

They believed that Caesar, a mad and brilliant scientist, might be able to develop a weapon powerful enough to deal with Wes.

When Caesar heard their request, he almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

A weapon that could kill Wes?

This was simply a fantasy. If Caesar truly had the ability to develop such a weapon, why would he stay in this remote Punk Hazard Island? He would have long since dominated the ocean with this invincible weapon. However, Caesar knew that he was no match for Vergo and Monet. If these two men turned ruthless, he would probably lose his life.

In desperation, he had no choice but to agree, thinking of taking it one step at a time and just getting by with it first.

What they never expected was that before Caesar's research could make any progress, they were defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates, and their last hope of revenge was completely shattered.

When Monet thought of this, tears of despair could not help but flow from his eyes. The crystal tears slid down his cheeks and dripped onto the ground.

Vergo just sat there cross-legged silently, without saying a word, his eyes revealing deep despair and death. The two of them were determined to die at this moment, feeling that since revenge was hopeless, there seemed to be no point in living.

"Give"

Just as Monet was immersed in despair and Virgo remained silent, a gentle voice broke the slightly dull atmosphere.

Sanji walked over slowly with a bowl of steaming soup and handed it over.

Monet slowly raised her head, with a hint of confusion and sadness still in her eyes. She looked at Sanji with no special expression on her face.

Sanji tilted his head slightly, revealing a self-righteous expression. The corners of his mouth turned up, and he said with a confident and somewhat cool smile, "As a chef, I won't let anyone go hungry."

Even the enemy cannot be left hungry. This is the principle he adheres to as a chef.

Seeing this, Caesar's eyes lit up immediately. He quickly raised his hand and shouted eagerly, "Give me a bowl."

He had been hungry for a long time, completely ignoring the fact that he was still a prisoner.

"You bastard, I'm not going to starve you to death with one meal!!"

When Sanji heard what Caesar said, he immediately became furious. The smile on his face disappeared instantly, revealing his sharp teeth.

Caesar was frightened by Sanji's roar and trembled all over. He quickly curled up into a ball, his eyes full of fear, and he muttered softly: "Stingy guy, it's just a bowl of soup."

But he didn't dare say it out loud, for fear that he would really anger Sanji and get a beating.

Monet just glanced at the bowl of soup indifferently and then looked away, showing no interest in it at all.

"Huh," Sanji blew out a smoke ring lightly, shook his head helplessly, then bent down, put the bowl on the ground, and said in a slightly softer tone: "It won't taste good when it's cold."

After saying that, he turned around and walked back towards the lively banquet, and soon merged into the laughter and joy of his companions.

Only the bowl of steaming soup was left, emitting a faint fragrance.
