Chapter 301 Little Flower Maniac
"Please enjoy your meal." Young Sanji put one hand in front of him and the other behind his back, bowed slightly and performed a gentleman's salute, looking very polite.
However, this politeness only lasted for three seconds. When Sanji raised his head and saw Altria and Rui Mengmeng, hearts appeared in his eyes uncontrollably.
"What...what a stunning beauty!" Perhaps because he is still young, Sanji's vocabulary seems to be insufficient, and his skills in flirting with girls are not yet improved. He just gave a dry compliment and nothing else.
"Thank you." Altria responded politely and then ignored him. How could a child be as attractive as the delicious food on the table?
Rui Mengmeng rarely heard such straightforward praise. Although it was said by a child, she still felt a little embarrassed.
Ye Yan shook his head, revealing a look of disdain: "Are all children nowadays so precocious?"
"Yohohoho~" Brook was very impressed with Sanji's performance and said with a smile, "This little brother will definitely become an outstanding man in the future."
"It's hard to say whether she'll come out or not, but she's definitely lustful." Zhang Daye waved his hand in front of Sanji, but the child didn't react at all and still stared blankly at Altria eating.
Rui Mengmeng crossed her arms and said, "It feels so weird. I can't eat at all when someone is staring at me like this, right?"
"Huh?" With her mouth full of food, Altria made an incomprehensible sound.
Like her, Tom didn't care about other people's looks at him at all. He stuffed all kinds of things into his mouth with both hands. Because Zhang Da didn't let Tom eat directly with his hands, Tom specially learned to eat quickly with a pair of chopsticks in each hand.
Xia Lulu complained: "This guy looks like Lucy's star spirit, the one in Leo. Really, he's still a child."
Wendy nodded in agreement. This child will definitely become a playboy like Loki (Leo) when he grows up.
"If you have any troubles, let me help you solve them, hehehe~" Perona said with a devilish smile, "Negative Ghost!"
Young Sanji knelt down in a second: "My...my existence is not even as good as a mackerel..."
Zhang Da didn't stop her. This kid is about to be invincible in the Straw Hat Pirates. He was considering whether to find Usopp to get an achievement for Perona. Young Usopp shouldn't be as negative as he will be in the future, right?
Shark Chili expressed sympathy for the unfortunate child: "Is this too much?"
Perona pouted: "He was the first to be rude."
"What just happened?" Sanji stood up with a confused look on his face. He seemed to have said something embarrassing in front of the beautiful lady.
"Hey, kid! You're too slow!" A man wearing an oversized chef's hat came out of the kitchen pushing a food cart.
The person who came was the owner and head chef of the restaurant, Tetsuo. Because Sanji was late in serving the dishes, Tetsuo had to serve the dishes himself.
The moment he saw Altria and Rui Mengmeng, Zeff knew why Sanji was so slow. He wiped his beard that was tied into two braids and scolded: "Don't always harass female customers!"
"I didn't! You old fool!" Sanji was used to quarreling, so he retorted subconsciously.
"If you don't have any, go to the kitchen and help!" Zeff raised his right leg and hit Sanji on the head with the wooden stick of his prosthetic leg.
Sanji pushed the food cart back to the kitchen without saying a word. He would not resist that leg no matter what.
In the comic version, Sanji and Tetsuo were once stranded on a deserted island and starved for 85 days. Tetsuo gave all his food to Sanji, and he ate his own right foot when he was extremely hungry.
However, because the animated version was too bloody and cruel, the two people fell into the water, and Zeff's right foot was stuck. In order to save Sanji, he had no choice but to use a chain to break his right leg.
No matter what, Red Leg Zeff gave up his right foot for Sanji. Sanji believed that he had taken away everything from this man, so he had to repay him no matter what.
Now his way of repaying him is to help Zhefu run the restaurant, even if it means giving up his dream of finding ALL-BLUE.
"I'm sorry to trouble you all." Zeff apologized on behalf of Sanji, then placed the dishes on the table and took away the empty plates.
Zeff did not show much surprise at the strange creatures on the table and their abnormal eating speed. After all, he had been traveling in the Grand Line for a year.
Zhefu also recognized the Amber Travel Group by their features, but he didn't say much. No matter who was sitting in the restaurant, in his eyes they were all guests, and he was just a chef.
After he left, Shark Chili whispered, "This man is a pirate, the former captain of the Chef Pirates, Red Foot Zeff. He was once active in the Grand Line for a while, but then there was no news of him."
"It's actually a shop opened by pirates!" The others were somewhat shocked, only Altria and Tom were still eating heartily. They didn't care whether it was a shop opened by pirates or not, they just knew that the taste was really great.
Zhang Da also asked, " Is there a reward?"
Shark Chili said: "No more. The information I have here shows that the Chef Pirates encountered a shipwreck and were later determined to be annihilated by the navy, so the bounty is gone."
"I've met another 'dead man'." Zhang Da also looked at Brook. Brook was dead on a biological level, and Zhefu was dead on a legal level. These two people were destined to be together.
Brooke looked at Zhang Tatsuya with his dark eyes: "Please don't look at me like that, Mr. Tatsuya. I always feel like you are thinking about something very rude."
"Sorry." Zhang Da also admitted his mistake sincerely.
However, Brooke felt even worse: "Please refute me properly. It turns out that you really are thinking about something rude! That's too much!"
"Feel sorry."
“I’m sorry, I sounded like you were mocking me after talking so much! Is it because I don’t have ears to hear people? Yohohoho~”
Shark Chili ignored Brook's antics and asked, "Boss Tatsuya, are we going to do something?"
Zhang Da also shook his head: "No, as long as he doesn't run a black shop."
…
In the kitchen, Bharati’s chefs are busy but not chaotically preparing various dishes, and they also find time to chat .
"Are there really ten guests this time, Paddy?"
"Of course, I never miscalculate the number of guests !"
The chefs all believed what he said, and that guy Paddy really treated his wealthy guests like gods.
"But they ordered too many dishes, didn't they? How can they order from a whole cookbook?"
At this time, Zhefu also pushed the food cart back to the kitchen. Looking at their unfocused appearance, he said, "Come on, everyone! Those guys are not ordinary people. It would be too embarrassing if they collapsed before filling the customers' stomachs!"
"Boss, are you kidding me? It's just cooking for ten people. I can spend the whole day cooking!"
"That's right! How could a chef collapse from cooking?"
Sanji was washing dishes at the sink, and when he heard what Tetsuo said, he asked curiously, "Old man, what do you mean by they are not ordinary people?"
Zeff glanced at Sanji and said, "They are a tour group from the Grand Line. Each of them is not an ordinary person."
"The Grand Line?"
"Could it be that tour group? That..."
The chefs were shocked and started talking about the Amber Tour Group.
But Sanji didn't hear a word. All he could think about was the Grand Line. If it was from the Grand Line, would they have seen ALL-BLUE?
Every time he talked about this in the past, he would always be laughed at. Only Zhefu believed in the existence of ALL-BLUE like him. So, can he get a definite answer from these people?
Sanji was somewhat excited, yet also somewhat nervous.
"Sanji, the food here is ready, for table number seven!"
“Same here!”
“And this side!”
The chefs chatted without interrupting their work, and they quickly prepared and plated the exquisite dishes.
"I'm here!" Sanji is still young and has not been learning cooking for long. Although he can cook a few dishes, he is not yet at the level to serve guests, so for the time being he can only learn and do some odd jobs at the same time.
Sanji pushed the food cart out, and a moment later hurriedly pushed the cart back, which was already full of empty plates: "Prepare faster! Table 7 is almost done!"
"What?"
"Impossible?"
The chefs couldn't believe it, but the empty plate Sanji brought back didn't lie.
"Sanji, this is ready." Zeff's calm voice suppressed the chefs' restlessness. He was responsible for four woks and a soup pot at the same time, and could prepare four or five dishes at one time.
Sanji hurriedly took the dishes and cleared the plates. The speed at which the people at that table ate was so fast that he didn't even have time to ask ALL-BLUE.
"What are you all standing there for? Are you going to admit defeat?" Zhefu asked the stunned chefs.
"How is that possible!"
"I'm betting on my dignity as a chef. I can't keep the guests waiting for too long!"
“I’m on fire!”
The chefs were aroused and returned to the battle, waving their kitchen utensils. Little Sanji ran back and forth, and later the waiter who was greeting guests at the door was also asked to run errands. Sanji, who had some knife skills, was asked to help cut vegetables.
Zhang Daye and the others were of course enjoying the food to the fullest. To be fair, the level of the chefs at Barati seemed to be better than those on the gourmet island near the Seven Water City.
The food on the table had been cleared away several times. The other people dining here were already stunned. Some of them even forgot to leave after paying the bill and just sat stupidly on their chairs watching Zhang Daye and the others eat and drink to their heart's content.
The waiter didn't have time to take care of them. He was an ordinary man and today was his second day at work. Just running in and out to put the dishes on the table was enough to make him almost break his legs.
Some guests chose to leave after looking for a while, while others insisted on staying to see how much they could eat.
At this time, in Barati's kitchen, everyone except Zeff was sweating profusely. The chefs could only sigh, "As expected of guests from the Grand Line," while quickly preparing their best dishes.
However, in the midst of busy schedule, an uninvited guest came to cause trouble.
About twenty guys with pistols or knives on their waists rushed in and found a place to sit at the door. When many of them moved their chairs, the legs of the chairs made a harsh friction sound against the floor, and they had malicious smiles on their faces.
The leader had a mountain-shaped beard on his chin and inverted mountain-shaped bangs on his forehead. He leaned against the back of the chair arrogantly and put his legs on the table, staining the clean tablecloth.
The guests who were watching the fun realized something was wrong and wanted to leave but were afraid to go near the door.
Shark Chili scanned the area and found no information about these people, so he lowered his head and continued eating.
After the waiter served Zhang Daye's table, he walked over timidly and asked, "What would the guests like to eat?"
"Listen carefully, my name is Dick, I like this ship, call the captain out!"
"Please... please don't make such jokes, sir..." The waiter obviously didn't know how to deal with such a situation.
The people around Dick immediately put their arms around the waiter's neck and pointed a gun at his head: "Don't you understand what Boss Dick is saying? Are you kidding? If you don't want to joke with the gun in my hand, call the captain out immediately!"
“Yes…Yes!” The waiter was about to cry, “I’ll go right away!”
The man let go of his hand, and the waiter tumbled into the kitchen: "Boss..."
Rui Mengmeng put down her bowl and chopsticks: "Boss, the restaurant seems to be in trouble."
Tom took a look at the ferocious-looking men, and tried hard to think about what these people were here for, but he noticed from the corner of his eye that Altria's eating speed was not affected at all. Tom gave up thinking and continued to add curve to his round belly.
"Don't panic. Who knows who might be in trouble. Wendy, pay attention to the ordinary guests later."
The fighting power of the chefs in the Sea Restaurant is stronger than that of the fish-man cadres of the Arlong Pirate Group. Zhang Da also feels that he doesn't need their help to deal with these scum. Maybe in Zeff's eyes, this is a good opportunity to make the restaurant famous. So he won't interfere and just ask Wendy to help watch over the ordinary people.
"Yeah!" Wendy wiped her mouth and prepared to cast defensive magic on ordinary people.
Ye Yan, holding a chicken wing in his mouth, commented: "These people have poor taste. Our ship should be much more expensive than this ship. Why do they have to grab a restaurant ship?"
Zhang Da also said: "That can't be helped. Our ship is just a tiny thing compared to Barati. If we want to rob it, we must rob the big one... Leave me one chicken wing!"
Compared with those restless guests, the atmosphere at Zhang Daye and Tom's table was out of place in the restaurant. This weird scene certainly attracted some of Dick's attention.
But before he could observe carefully, Zhefu came out from the kitchen while wiping his hands and said, "I am the boss of Barati. What do you want to see me for?"
Behind Tetsuo were Sanji and a few chefs with unhappy faces.
The waiter didn't dare to come out and hid at the kitchen door to observe secretly. He was already thinking about resigning. How could a waiter sit there without being pointed at with a gun? It was too scary.
Dick took a look at Zhepu's appearance, haha, a cook, and then looked at Zhepu's artificial leg, haha, he is a disabled person, this boat is simply given to him for free!
