Pirate: It’s not a phantom beast, it’s a phantom god!

Chapter 29 Night Banquet
Night belongs to pirates, so the Beast Dining Hall is usually open until after midnight.

"Oh!"

"Hey! Cook! Bring me some meat, and fill my wine gourd!"

Kaido pushed the door open and walked into the cafeteria without any hesitation, then sat down in the nearest empty seat.

"Please give me one of your specialty dishes and a glass of juice, Mr. Chef." La then came in and sat on Kaido's left.

"Kai, Boss Kaido, you're here!"

The pirates who had just been drinking, bragging and chatting to pass the night saw their captain coming and stood up and greeted Kaido.

"Don't worry about me, you guys continue!" Kaido took the wine jug handed back by Cook and started drinking again.

Seeing Kaido say this, everyone stopped being restrained and the noise gradually grew louder.

Pirates are a group of people who do whatever they want.

However, at this time, a captain of a combat team was urged by everyone to move closer to Kaido.

"Speaking of which, Boss Kaido, when are we going to deal with John and the others? The ships from Beehive Island have been hanging around us these past few months!"

This is the question that all the pirates present want to ask.

"That's right, if you don't know, you would think this is his territory!"

"Those guys are like flies. They come back again after you drive them away. As a result, merchant ships dare not come here recently."

Most of the Beasts pirates are dissatisfied with the recent harassment by the John Pirates.

"Ton ton ton ton~ Wait, John won't be able to jump around for much longer!"

Hearing this, the surrounding pirates gathered around Kaido and La's table.

"Oh? Boss Kaido, do you have any news?"

"Heh! Do you know why John has been so active lately?"

Without waiting for anyone to shake their heads, Kaido continued.

“When Rocks died, John immediately went back and took over Beehive Island and most of the treasure!
At that time, everyone was busy fighting for territory and building power, so no one was willing to waste time fighting him.

But my old buddies, those ambitious guys, will definitely not forget this piece of fat meat. John has been sending people to guard the area recently because he has noticed that some guys are about to lose their temper and take action.

"Huh? Why was no one willing to fight John to the death at that time? That was Rocks' base and his treasure!" a pirate asked in confusion.

"It's simple. John is already quite powerful. Forcing an attack would only result in losses for both sides and allow others to take advantage. Besides, Rocks's territory was so vast that there was no need to focus on Beehive Island."

"As for the treasure... there's no place I can be more confident in keeping it than with John. That greedy fellow will never let even a fraction of that treasure go to waste."

As 'companions' who had been on the same ship for a long time, everyone was well aware of John's greedy nature.

If that treasure were handed over to someone else, it might be squandered quickly, but with him... not only would it not be reduced, it might even generate a lot of 'interest'.
"Well, then, should we go grab some too?"

After hearing Kaido's analysis, the pirates around him were eager to try, because that was Rocks' treasure!
Some people seemed to have already seen the beautiful scene of being buried completely by the mountains of gold coins on Honeycomb Island.

"Of course! I've already chosen my target!"

After saying that, Kaido glanced at La and found that she seemed to have no interest in this. She just looked at the direction of the serving table over the pirates around her.

Kaido was about to say something else when he heard La say softly, "Dinner is here."

A few seconds later, Cook appeared at the food serving port, holding two portions of grilled sea king steak, one large and one small. He steadily placed them in front of the two men. Seeing this, the pirates made way for him.

As soon as the steak was served, Kaido picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice, and then took a sip of wine and swallowed it, while La looked at Cook with some confusion.

In response to La's question, Cook explained: "Miss La, this grilled steak is my best dish."

"Because the portion is large and filling, many people order it, and I am also very skilled at making it. I'll get you a knife and fork, please try it."

Cook originally wanted to call La "Sama", but after seeing La's temperament, he thought it would be better to call her "Miss".

He was originally a chef on a noble cruise ship. After being attacked by pirates at sea, he was sold to the New World. After a period of wandering, he finally joined the Beasts Pirates and became the cafeteria chef.

As someone who used to serve the nobility, he paid more attention to the details of these titles.

"Do you have chopsticks?" La was not used to using a knife. "Um, sorry, no one here knows how to use chopsticks, so I don't have any."

"To be honest, they rarely even use knives and forks," Cook said apologetically.

"Then give me a knife and fork." La didn't make things difficult for Cook anymore.

After a while, a pair of metal knives and forks were brought over. La fiddled with the cutlery in front of him awkwardly, cut off a small piece of steak and put it into his mouth.

"Wu la la la la~ What's wrong? Are you not used to these things, kid? You look like you're definitely not a lady from a noble family!"

La didn't respond immediately. Instead, he slowly swallowed the food in his mouth before saying, "I've said before that I'm just an ordinary person, Captain Kaido. And I don't think a set of tableware can be used to distinguish between nobles and commoners."

"Because we see those noble ladies sitting properly like you and eating with their knife and fork, taking small bites at a time, la... uh, sir."

A pirate thought for a long time and finally decided to address him as 'Sir'.

After all, judging from Kaido's attitude towards her just now, there is no doubt that he values ​​her very much.

"Yes, yes, those ladies eat like they are doing embroidery, they are so slow~ah! I'm not talking about you, Master La." Another pirate echoed.

"As the sage said: 'You never tire of fine food, and you never tire of fine meat.' Eating slowly is good for your health."

And in the final analysis, the so-called nobles only maintain their wealthy lives by plundering the wealth of the common people, and then use their boring bloodline to flaunt their own uniqueness and so-called "nobility".

They are essentially no different from pirates; there is no such thing as one being nobler than the other."

"Woo-la-la-la-la~ Well said! Those high-handed scumbags are no different from us, they're just thieves!"

"Is this also what that saint said?" Kaido seemed to like La's words very much.

"That's what another saint said."

"What the saint said is right! Those nobles are no different from scum like me!"

As if some emotion was ignited, some pirates began to vent their dissatisfaction and resentment.

"Fuck the world's nobles, they're nothing but a bunch of idiots!" A slave who had managed to escape from the Valley of Gods suddenly cried out.

"Yes, those damn Celestial Dragons are nothing but a bunch of captive bastards!" The other pirates were also infected and shouted.

"And what's that bullshit 'Gold in the Sky'? I don't have that thing. I'm still back home in Beihai taking care of my wife and kids!"

"Sooner or later I will sell all those nobles into slavery."

It has to be said that a considerable number of pirates were forced to go out to sea as pirates because they were exploited by royal families and nobles to the point where they could no longer survive.

These people may be motivated by jealousy or hatred, but in any case, they all harbor deep dissatisfaction and malice towards those in power under the current world government system.

……

More and more people were venting their emotions, and their voices were getting louder and louder, but Kaido didn't seem to have any intention of stopping them. Instead, he seemed to be somewhat happy to see it happen.

Finally, some nearby townspeople were awakened.

"What the hell? Who's yelling?"

"What are these guys doing here so crazy at night instead of sleeping?!"

"Quack~Quack..."

"Fuck! I finally managed to coax the kid to sleep."

……

La felt a little helpless. To be honest, she didn't expect that these pirates would have such a strong grudge against the so-called nobles.

Although she had no interest in the backwardness of the world's system and the conflicts between different classes, the noise around her made her lose the mood to continue eating.

So I had to carry the plates directly to the back kitchen and close the door to block out the noise.

Just like that, the night ended quietly with a group of people making noise.
