Luffy went to his personal chef's side and rolled around on the ground, using this childish method to urge the chef to hurry up and cook.
Sanji, with a cigarette dangling from his lips and eyes blazing with suppressed anger, punched his captain, telling him to shut up and stop loitering around in front of him.
Preparing food for everyone on the ship was already a difficult task, and now with the addition of two giants nearly twenty meters tall, their appetites were clearly not small. As a chef, he couldn't skimp on the ingredients; they had to taste better than roasted dinosaur meat, which was just salt and had no other flavor.
This time, he was going to make an authentic roasted whole dragon. The entire Tyrannosaurus Rex was strung up by a thick tree. Dorry and Brogy helped the chef control the heat, while Sanji kept sprinkling spices on the dragon meat and occasionally making a cut in the thickest part of the meat.
"It smells so good, I haven't smelled such a wonderful scent in ages."
"Let's bring out our stock today and let these little guys have some fun."
The "stock" the two giants were referring to was the wine they brewed from various fruits when they arrived on the island. They agreed that they would open and taste the wine only after one of them won.
But more than a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye. If Luffy and his crew hadn't come to the Little Garden, the fruit wine would still be buried underground, who knows how long it would have remained there.
Brogy brought out the century-old sake to thank the Straw Hat crew for saving his life. They almost lost their lives to the Navy, so these material possessions weren't that important, since life is only given to one person.
Eren, now a Titan, once again acted as a porter. Last time, he moved stones to block the broken city gate; this time, he moved a rather large barrel, a huge round barrel ten meters wide and ten meters high, which was very much in line with the Titans' style of doing things.
The Attack Titan was still the same old guy, with no manhood, which made the Dorry Titan shake his head. Brogy was right about who he was talking to; this kid's Devil Fruit ability seriously damaged the image of the Titan race.
The whole roasted dragon is ready, and the century-old wine is ready too, so what are we waiting for? Let's start the banquet right now!
Luffy: Cheers!
Allen: Cheers!
Zoro: Cheers!
Nami: Cheers!
Sanji: Cheers!
Usopp: Cheers!
The two giants, holding goblets comparable in size to the Going Merry, joined the others in a toast: Cheers!
Princess Vivi and Icarus join in, sharing in the joy of victory: Cheers!
After everyone finished their first drink, Sanji volunteered to cut dinosaur meat for everyone. His cooking skills were undeniable. Captain Luffy was holding a whole Tyrannosaurus Rex hind leg and devouring it, quickly filling the rubber man's belly to a round and large size.
Sanji, being a gentleman, took the initiative to cut some small pieces of breast meat for the two ladies. This was the most delicious part of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. As for the other stinky men, he hastily cut some meat with bones in it. Let them gnaw on the bones if they have good teeth!
"Sanji's dinosaur meat is pretty good."
"I never imagined dinosaur meat could be made so delicious!"
Hearing Nami and Vivi's praise, Sanji swayed back and forth, his eyes sparkling with hearts, wishing he could pounce on them immediately.
While Sanji was flirting with the beautiful woman, Zoro, gnawing on a bone, glanced at Eren and saw him sitting alone in a corner, drinking silently. The peculiar melancholy about him made Zoro unable to resist approaching him and asking, "Eren, you haven't said which island you're going to."
Upon hearing this question, everyone except Luffy and the giant immediately shut their mouths and listened intently.
After downing the liquid in his glass in one gulp, Allen answered Zoro's question: "I'm going to Drum Island. I've heard there are many famous doctors there, and I'm going there to see a doctor."
Seeing a doctor? Eren looks healthy and can transform into a Titan to fight at any time. He can get sick? Such a powerful guy can be plagued by illness?
The Straw Hat crew certainly didn't know about Drum Island. Princess Vivi has a bad memory, but Icarus, as a minister of the kingdom, knows something about Drum Island, since it is also a member state of the World Government.
"Alan, I have bad news for you. Drum Island has changed. That tyrannical king has expelled most of the doctors. Going back to Drum Island won't be worth it."
Icarum then described the location of Drum Island, which was only a few days' sea voyage from Little Garden and was on the same shipping route as the Kingdom of Alabasta.
"It's alright. Just drop me off after we pass Drum Island. I have my own way of finding a doctor."
Allen insisted on going, and no one dared to dissuade him, so the drinking atmosphere suddenly turned cold...
Chapter 33 Three Billion Berries
On the island of Little Garden, the Straw Hat crew had a banquet with the two giants all night. Everyone ate and drank a lot of food and drinks, and it wasn't until noon the next day that everyone woke up one after another.
However, our navigator and cook both fell ill at the same time. They suddenly developed high fevers that wouldn't go down, and since there was no doctor on board, they didn't know anything about the illness.
It's relatively lucky that the Straw Hat crew fell ill so soon after entering the Grand Line. Fortunately, the symptoms didn't hide in their bodies, allowing them to receive medical attention quickly.
Princess Vivi was taking care of the two people in the cabin, wiping their bodies with hot towels, but this could not cool them down. Both the man and the woman were delirious with fever.
As for Luffy's stupid idea of transferring the crew's illnesses onto himself, it was completely impossible. Zoro and Eren held him back, preventing this brainless captain from doing anything reckless.
"Being taken care of by Princess Vivi is worth dying here for," he thought. Although he was seriously ill and weak, he was able to be close to Princess Vivi and experience the kind of kindness a woman had shown him before.
"I don't want to die yet, you can die if you want," Nami's body was limp but her mouth was still hard. She had just entered the Grand Line and was going to die on the way. Her dream had not yet been realized, and she absolutely could not die here.
"Although most of the doctors on Drum Island have been dismissed, King Walbourne still has twenty renowned physicians by his side. With his help, these illnesses will be minor problems."
As a minister of the kingdom, Icarum had some knowledge of other countries, but he was still unsure of himself. The king was an eccentric and unpredictable fellow, and it would be even more difficult to ask him for favors.
"Then let's go to Drum Island now."
Luffy looked serious. He wasn't joking when it came to his crewmates' lives; he valued them the most.
Usopp originally intended to simply throw the three prisoners from Baroque Works on the ship into the sea to fend for themselves, as letting them go too easily would invite even fiercer retaliation from the other side.
Even if you asked the Straw Hat crew to do something as dirty as taking lives, they wouldn't do it, since they're portrayed as the male protagonists of a shonen manga.
They can only entrust the two giants to look after them. As for whether the three officers can survive from the other side, and what happens afterward, it has nothing to do with the Straw Hat crew. They will not take responsibility for it and will not admit it.
Brogy and Dorry combined their powers to use the Overlord, causing the Going Merry to burst out of the Sea King's mouth, bringing the Straw Hat crew's Little Garden adventure to a perfect close.
The two giants' weapons were damaged as a result, and they had no reason to continue fighting. They decided to find the lost members of the Giant Warrior Pirates and set sail again to start anew.
Zoro was practicing his swordsmanship on the deck when a white newsbird flew over. Seeing that the old man had no intention of buying news, it flew over to Icarus.
"Give me a copy," he said, tossing a hundred Berries into the newsbird's pocket. The bird happily placed the latest newspaper on the boat, spread its wings, and flew away to find its next buyer at sea.
Even the most heinous pirates would never harm the Newsbirds. If you accidentally offend them, the group will never sell you newspapers again.
The Grand Line was unpredictable and transportation was inconvenient. People could only see the outside world and know what was happening outside through newspapers. If they lost this only way, they would have to live as primitive people on small islands or at sea for the rest of their lives.
Morgans' news headlines, as always, are sensationalist; in short, these clickbait headlines are very effective at grabbing attention and making readers unable to resist reading the entire news.
The Worst Pirate: The Man Who Gains the Fastest Bounty
The Fifth Emperor of the Sea
Bucky the Clown disappears in the East China Sea, brewing a huge conspiracy.
Artoria Joins the Navy, Future Admiral
Red-Haired Shanks makes contact with the Whitebeard Pirates
The Navy really pulled out all the stops this time. The bounty on Bucky the Clown was originally only 15 million Berries, but it has now skyrocketed to 3 billion Berries, a two-hundred-fold increase. This is something that has never happened before on the high seas.
The Navy and the World Government even discussed this matter, not because the bounty was set too high, but because they felt it was too low. They believed that 3 billion Berries completely underestimated Buggy the Clown's strength.
The main person who had the opinion that the bounty was too low was Admiral Akainu himself, who fought Buggy the Clown. His destructive power of the Magma-Magma Fruit was undeniable in his battles with other great pirates.
However, Bucky the Clown's ability to split apart the body meant that Sakazuki's magma was directly split apart without touching his body, preventing any damage.
In battles with his enemies, Sakazuki used many methods, but only a small number of times was he able to burn his opponents with magma; the vast majority of the time, his attacks were neutralized by the opponents' Devil Fruit abilities.
That Conqueror's Haki technique is still giving Sakazuki a headache. If he hadn't been constantly training his physique, he wouldn't have been able to withstand more than a few hits from his opponent. His most important tactic of trading blows for blows has also lost its effectiveness against Bucky the Joker.
The only thing Admiral Akainu can rely on against Buggy the Clown is his abundant stamina. If he can drag the fight into a protracted battle, Sakazuki will have a chance of winning.
It can be said that Buggy the Clown has become the nemesis of Admiral Akainu. Sending an Admiral would not be enough to defeat him in a short time. The appearance of such a terrifying guy on the sea makes the 3 billion Berry bounty too low, seriously underestimating his strength.
This isn't about the admiral boosting the morale of others while diminishing their own. Sakazuki is a pragmatist; he won't whitewash the situation. He wants to put some pressure on the Navy, to stop allowing pirates to wreak havoc on the seas.
Sakazuki's massive conscription request was ultimately rejected by Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who argued that the navy was not yet that weak, and the admiral and fleet admiral had a serious disagreement on this point.
However, Artoria gave Sakazuki some surprises. After this female swordsman donned the cloak of justice, she became close to Sakazuki in her ideals of justice. Although she was not as extreme as him, the two could be said to share the same attitude of eliminating evil and protecting pirates.
The Navy has been searching for Bucky the Clown in the East China Sea, but he seems to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace whatsoever.
However, the Navy did not let its guard down. It consolidated its forces in the East China Sea to defend several key locations. It did not believe that Bucky the Joker died in the Loguetown incident and predicted that he was still plotting something behind the scenes. This kind of old schemer hiding is the most troublesome for everyone.
Most of the kings of the World Government member states located in the East Blue have evacuated the East Blue with their queens and children. This is also due to the influence of Bucky the Clown. As long as he lives, the nobles of the East Blue will not be able to sleep well every night...
Chapter 34 Unlucky Barrett
Affected by Buggy the Clown, the most unfortunate ones are not the small countries in the East Blue. The man most affected is a former crew member of the Pirate King. The Navy paid a heavy price to capture him. He is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with the ability to combine and fuse, and is currently imprisoned on the sixth level of Impel Down.
In Impel Down, where escape is virtually impossible, only Shiki the Golden Lion cut off his own legs to leave, leaving the Float-Float Fruit user out. Now, it can be said to be impregnable, and any pirate who enters here will have no chance of escape.
The Impel Down jailers initially thought they had done a good job, but the information revealed by the celestial screen showed that they had committed serious dereliction of duty. Not only did they allow Bucky the Joker to come into contact with Barrett, but they also allowed him to escape, indirectly causing the later Ironblood War and leading to the annihilation of the entire Navy.
The World Government sent two CP0 agents to Impel Down's Level 6 prison. These two skilled interrogators, along with Shiryu of the Rain, were tasked with extracting information from Barrett about Buggy the Clown's motives for seeking him out.
"What a strong-willed man, you didn't say anything even after all this."
"I'm becoming more and more interested in the secret you're hiding."
Poor Barrett had his tendons severed by Shiryu of the Rain, who kept leaving wounds on his strong body, torturing him until he revealed his secrets.
Despite the pain he had sustained, the soldier didn't utter a single complaint. He always answered with "I don't know," which made the three interrogators feel slighted, leading them to intensify their torture of him.
Bucky the Joker has a close relationship with Barrett, who is also restless in the Special Process Prison. While others are listless in prison, this guy exercises his physique every day. Before the light screen appeared, he seemed to know that he would successfully escape one day. This abnormal behavior aroused more suspicion.
The inmates on the sixth floor also suffered, as their chains were reinforced with even more chains, including high-concentration seastone chains, to prevent these extremely vicious ability users from escaping.
The already weakened Devil Fruit user became even more vulnerable, and these vicious pirates on the high seas held a grudge against Buggy the Clown.
Shiryu of the Rain received a new order from the World Government, requiring him to guard Impel Down's sixth level prison every day to prevent Buggy the Clown from sneaking in and to stop him from meeting Barrett as soon as possible.
The top fighters in Impel Down are all out of the question. Magellan, the highest-ranking officer there, is unavailable due to his Paramecia-type Venom-Venom Fruit and the fact that he needs to use the toilet for ten hours every day. Therefore, this important task can only be entrusted to Shiryu of the Rain.
Even if the other party has a history of abusing prisoners, dead pirates are good pirates, which is better than them reappearing at sea. At the same time, this second-best fighter was promoted to the same rank as Hannibal.
