One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

If we take into account the boost from the Weather Stick and the powerful damage from electric abilities, her combat strength might increase by one or two levels!

Chapter 64 A punch worth 5000 million Berries!

Sanji, who boarded the ship with ambition, quickly showed off his skills to the Straw Hat crew.

That noon, at Luffy's suggestion, the Straw Hat crew held a welcome banquet for Sanji in the Going Merry's restaurant.

Although that's what they say, the busiest person at the entire banquet was Sanji, who was the chef.

Fortunately, he himself enjoyed it.

For a chef, being able to cook delicious food for someone who appreciates it is a kind of happiness.

With his excellent cooking skills and status as a newcomer, Sanji quickly became the most popular man in the Straw Hat crew!

However, as the banquet officially began, Sanji, revealing his true nature, quickly became the object of contempt for all the men!

……

……

"Nami-san, this sirloin steak is made from premium beef carefully fed with special feed from the North Sea. It has been aged at a low temperature for a long time and then drizzled with my special loving sauce."

"Even ordinary royalty and nobles rarely see cuisine of this caliber, perhaps only once a year. Please enjoy!"

Sanji brought a plate of steak arranged in the shape of a heart and emitting a rich aroma to Nami and placed it in front of her in a gentlemanly manner.

Upon smelling the unique fragrance, Luffy and Usopp's eyes widened instantly, and they brought their faces close together, greedily inhaling the aroma.

Wow! It looks delicious!

"As expected of Baratie's sous chef, his skills are truly superb!"

As they spoke, the two of them reached out with their knives and forks, wanting to share the steak in front of Nami.

But just then...

Bang bang!!!

Two invisible kicks suddenly flew past, directly knocking the cutlery out of Luffy and Usopp's hands.

Sanji retracted his long legs and then placed two servings of steak, which, although fragrant, were clearly not as luxurious as the one in front of Nami, in front of them.

"That's a special dish I made with love for Miss Nami!"

"This is the real you two!!!"

"Hey~! Sanji, you're really showing favoritism!" Usopp immediately started complaining.

Luffy grabbed the steak in front of him and wolfed it down, his head turned towards Sanji while his other hand secretly reached for the steak in front of Usopp.

He complained, "Exactly! I'm the captain! Why can't I eat the best food?!"

"Mmm...this steak is so delicious!"

"Hey! Luffy!!!"

Usopp, noticing Luffy's little trick, screamed in surprise.

But it was all too late.

Luffy's arm snapped back suddenly, bringing back Usopp's steak.

"Honestly, what kind of behavior is this, all this noise and commotion?"

Upon seeing this, Zoro immediately made a sarcastic remark.

But to avoid following in Usopp's footsteps, after Sanji put down his steak, he immediately brandished the knife in his hand.

In an instant, the flash of the blade was followed by afterimages.

In the blink of an eye, Zoro cut the steak into small, easy-to-swallow pieces and devoured it immediately, not giving anyone else a chance to eat it.

Although Red, who was sitting next to Luffy, did not have such means, he actually tried to reach out his hand to Luffy when he saw Luffy being pulled by Usopp.

He picked up the plate, a flash of lightning, and he floated into the air, with the ceiling above him, where he quietly enjoyed his lunch.

Johnny and Joseph, being unofficial staff members, dared not approach the dangerous dining table.

The two of them spread out a picnic blanket in a corner of the restaurant and ate quietly.

And so, amidst the noisy atmosphere, the Straw Hat crew enjoyed an exceptionally delicious lunch.

Unfortunately, the pleasant atmosphere didn't last long.

Just as the banquet was drawing to a close, a sudden burst of excited shouts came from outside.

"Um!?"

Sensing something amiss, the Straw Hat crew pricked up their ears and peered out the window.

Chi Hong calmly took out a napkin to wipe the grease from her mouth, then gave a faint smile.

"come yet?"

……

……

A moment later, everyone came out of the cabin and onto the deck of the Merry.

"What a huge ship!!!"

Luffy and Usopp looked up at the horizon and exclaimed in unison.

A colossal warship, its masts seemingly piercing the clouds, slowly sailed from the distant sea toward the direction of Barati.

The source of the noise was none other than the diners inside the Barratier restaurant.

"That, that flag... there's no mistake! That's the Krieg Pirates, the overlords of the East Blue!"

"What!? Didn't the newspaper say they were heading to the 'Grand Line,' the graveyard of pirates? Why are their ships here!?"

"Anyway! Never mind why! Let's run!!!"

The Krieg Pirates, a group that has dominated the East Blue for many years and is known for their ruthlessness and cruelty, are enough to terrify the people of the East Blue with just their flag.

The already dwindling number of diners due to Luffy instantly scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing in panic!

In the blink of an eye, only the Merry remained of the ships anchored near Baratie.

"Oh dear~ It seems that compared to the veteran pirates of the East Blue, Luffy, your infamy is still lacking!"

Seeing the Baratie restaurant suddenly become deserted, Crimson couldn't help but chuckle.

Zoro frowned, secretly glancing at Sanji, and muttered to himself:

"Is it because of that pirate from that day?"

"Sure enough, things that are so easy to get yourself into trouble should be stopped from the very beginning!"

"Now is not the time to talk about these things!"

Nami suddenly looked serious and said:

"Judging from their appearance, it seems they have no intention of stopping the ship at all!"

"If they do that, they'll crash into the Going Merry!!!"

"Aaaaaah~!!!"

Usopp and Johnny were instantly alarmed.

"No, no! Mary is still a child! She can't withstand such severe torture!"

The three immediately ran to the helm and sails, preparing to set sail and escape.

But Crimson spoke up and stopped them:

"No need for that!"

A smile appeared on his lips as he addressed the crowd:

"In the world of pirates, it has always been the weak who make way for the strong!"

"The Krieg Pirates alone are not qualified to let us escape, don't you agree, Luffy!?"

"Ah!" Luffy shook his arm, his eyes instantly lighting up with excitement, as he was easily swayed by this.

"Crimson is right! Why should we give way to them!"

"I'm going to be the Pirate King!"

"Crimson, take me up there!"

Luffy grinned, clenched his fist, and said to the massive, menacing warship approaching him:

"I'm going to stop their ship!!!"

"Wait, wait a minute, Luffy!"

"This...this can't be done!? The ships on the other side are so big, how is this possible!?"

Sanji, who was still unaware of Luffy's true strength, immediately exclaimed in surprise.

Johnny and Joseph didn't stop what they were doing; one held the reins of the sail, and the other had both hands on the helm, waiting for the order.

But Zoro let out a sneer at Sanji:

"Don't worry, you lecherous chef~"

"Luffy is much stronger than you can imagine!!!"

Electromagnetic light waves suddenly appeared.

Red grabbed Luffy's shoulder, and the two immediately rose into the air, flying towards the huge warship not far away.

As they got closer, Luffy suddenly exclaimed:

"Strange, this ship looks so shabby! Did they get hit by a tornado?"

"Who knows?" Red, who knew everything, didn't explain anything, but simply led Luffy to continue rising and moving forward.

Only when the two reached high above the giant warship did Crimson speak:

"This position should be about right, right?"
