Recruit Luffy at the start and build the strongest navy.

When Luffy returned excitedly, he noticed a group of people gathered at their training area in the distance, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

Why are they all gathered together?

As Luffy got a little closer, he suddenly smelled a delicious aroma. His nose twitched involuntarily, and his eyes immediately turned into the shape of roasted meat. Drops of saliva dripped from his mouth.

"The barbecue smells so good!!"

After saying that, Luffy suddenly unleashed unprecedented speed, his two short legs moving like invincible whirlwinds, almost leaving a trail of afterimages.

In just a short while, he arrived not far from the group, and at this moment he could see what was in front of him.

The group was sitting around a large table, which was covered with various kinds of roasted meat, emitting an incredibly rich aroma.

Ace, Sabo, and the others were all stuffing meat into their mouths like crazy, their faces beaming with pleasure.

Seeing that most of the roasted meat was gone in an instant, Luffy panicked and shouted at the crowd from a distance:

"Leave some for me, I want some too!!"

However, it would have been better if Luffy hadn't spoken; once he started talking, everyone ate even faster, and those with quick hands left afterimages.

When Luffy arrived at the table, only one piece of roasted meat remained.

At this moment, Luffy only had one thought in his mind.

"This piece of roast meat is mine, and nobody can take it from me!!"

His hand stretched out instantly, reaching for the roasted meat, but another hand was faster, snatching the meat away just before he could touch it.

Luffy only managed to grab a plate.

Luffy took the plate back and stared blankly at the bottom of the plate, where there was still a layer of oil residue. His expression froze on the spot.

Then, looking in the direction from which the hand had been reached, they saw Sabo pulling a bone out of his mouth and placing it on the table. As if sensing Luffy's gaze, he also looked over.

……

The air was silent for a moment. Luffy seemed to only see the sound of Sabo chewing. Looking at Sabo, whose mouth was bulging bigger than a hamster's, Luffy was completely enraged.

He threw down the plate in his hand and jumped directly towards Sabo, his eyes blazing with fire.

"Sabo, I'm going to kill you!!"

!!!

Seeing Luffy rushing towards him, Sabo's eyes widened suddenly, and he immediately swallowed all the meat in his mouth in one gulp. However, he swallowed it a little too fast and it got stuck in his throat. His face turned red, and he kept pounding his chest with his fists.

Damn throat, tighten it up already!

Finally, just before Luffy was about to touch him, he managed to swallow all the meat, thus avoiding choking to death.

But soon the two started fighting, rolling around on the ground.

The people around did not stop them, but instead watched with great interest, all leaning back in their chairs, picking their teeth with toothpicks, looking quite content!

"Sabo! You didn't leave me a single thing!! Aaaaah, I'm going to kill you today!"

Luffy continued to roar.

"It's one thing that you were slow to arrive, but you were also slow with your hands. How can you blame me for that?"

"If you're not as skilled as someone else, you have to accept the consequences!"

Sabo retorted defiantly.

However, Luffy didn't care about any of that and continued to attack Sabo with punches and kicks.

Sabo wasn't in a good position either. He had eaten too much and now that he was moving around so vigorously, he felt a bit nauseous.

"Luffy... Luffy, do you dare wait until I rest for a while before you fight me?!"

Sabo couldn't help but speak up, but Luffy ignored him completely and retorted without any politeness:

Why didn't you wait for me before you attacked?

"No matter what you say today, it's useless, Sabo, you're finished!!"

After saying that, Luffy pounced on him again.

Sabo, seeing that the soft approach wasn't working, couldn't bear it any longer.

"You think I'm afraid of you, Luffy? I'll beat you into a pulp today!!"

-

After a long time~

"Over!!"

"After a long and fierce battle, the champion of this Monkey King Tournament has finally emerged, and he is..."

"Monkey D...Luffy!!!"

Let's all cheer for the birth of the Monkey King!

Kyle stood next to Luffy, raised one of his hands, and shouted loudly.

Meanwhile, Sabo was lying on the ground on the other side, seeing stars and occasionally burping.

How careless of him! I should have known better than to eat so much; he ended up losing to Luffy, what an embarrassment!!

Normally, he is stronger than Luffy, but he was not in good condition today and was caught out!

But thinking about Kyle's announcement of winning the Monkey King Tournament, he suddenly felt that it wasn't so bad that he hadn't won this battle.

Luffy, whose right hand was raised by Kyle, no longer showed his usual excitement and agitation. Instead, he stared blankly at the empty plates on the table.

His eyes were filled with utter disappointment!

He didn't get to eat any of the barbecue!

Thinking of this, a sense of grievance welled up in Luffy's heart, and tears slowly welled up in his eyes.

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't rush to cry. Take a look at the prize for the Monkey King Contest champion first. If you still want to cry, then come and cry, there's no rush!"

At that moment, Kyle's calm voice came from the side, causing Luffy to subconsciously turn his head, and the next second his eyes suddenly widened.

The light returned to its eyes, and it transformed back into the shape of roasted meat.

There was a small table next to Kyle, and on the table was a large amount of roasted meat!

"These are all for me?!"

Luffy stared blankly at Kyle and asked.

"What else?"

Kyle had a faint smile on his lips.

"We saved some for you when you came back!"

"After all, you're our foolish younger brother. How can an older brother not consider his younger brother's feelings?"

!!!

Upon hearing this, the tears that had disappeared from Luffy's eyes welled up again, quickly filling his eyes and flowing uncontrollably.

"Kyle, you guys..."

Luffy only managed to say a few words before tears welled up in his eyes. Overwhelmed with emotion, he looked at everyone, only to see them all smiling at him.

Luffy was undoubtedly very moved at this moment. He thought that no one had left him anything, but it turned out that they had already prepared something else for him.

"Alright, alright! Stop crying, you crybaby!"

"Your second brother hasn't even cried yet! He's the most wronged one. You came over and beat him up; he probably wants to throw up everything he ate!"

Kyle spoke with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Luffy suddenly realized what was happening and subconsciously looked at Sabo beside him. Seeing Sabo still lying on the ground and occasionally hiccuping, Luffy also showed an embarrassed expression.

"Um... Sabo! I'm so sorry!"

"Fine, who... hiccup~ who told you to be my brother... hiccup~ my little brother!"

ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh!

Sabo waved his hand, pretending to generously forgive Luffy.

That's right, pretend to be generous!

He'll definitely get his revenge next time!!!

However, Luffy's next words made him not even want to pretend anymore!

"But why won't you talk? If you had, I would have stopped! Why won't you talk? Why won't you talk??"

!!!
