Chapter 252: Banquet Turmoil

Noon, meal time.

The canteen outside the construction site was cleaned up, and the strange aroma of food spread across half the town.

Most of the people who come to eat are workers from the construction team.

But in addition to them, there were also employees of the East China Sea Navy, merchants from various countries, and Debang Company, among which there were also some figures with heads and faces in the East China Sea.

It's not your average lunch, it's more like a big feast.

They are all here for the groundbreaking ceremony of the sea train this afternoon, and also to see the demeanor of the righteous knight Galen.

"This Galen... What a strange person! ”

Looking at the lively scene in front of him, the head chef of this banquet, Chef Zhepu from the Sea Restaurant Bharati, couldn't help but sigh:

"I thought that Debang Company spent a lot of money to invite us Bharati for the enjoyment of their company's senior management."

"I didn't expect..."

"The protagonist of this banquet they held turned out to be the most inconspicuous worker!"

Workers, navy, aristocrats, wealthy merchants...

These people, who were completely different identities, were able to dine under the same roof in front of Galen's banner.

Zhepu has been a chef for so many years, and he has never seen such a strange and extremely touching banquet.

"Humph!"

Because of Galen's ugly behavior of "playing with women's feelings", Sanji's favor for Galen is almost zero.

Hearing Zhepu's praise of Galen, Sanji only retorted with disdain:

"Old man, where have you lived at this age?"

"Can't you see? These things are just for show! ”

"When this banquet is dispersed, the workers will still be workers, and the rich will still be rich!"

"Haha..."

Zhepu didn't refute either, but said with a smile:

"That's better than before, too."

"In the messy East China Sea in the past, the weak didn't even have the dignity on the surface."

“......”

Sanji was speechless, but he just held his breath and didn't want to let go.

At this moment, there was a commotion in a corner of the banquet hall, and there seemed to be a conflict between two groups of people.

Sanji immediately frowned tightly:

Since he had chosen to follow Jep here as a temporary chef, he naturally regarded this banquet as his home field.

As a violent chef who picks up a knife to cook and puts down a knife to hit people, he will not allow anyone to make trouble in his restaurant.

Therefore, before the staff of Debang Company could take action, Sanji hurried over to investigate the situation.

As soon as he arrived, Sanji roughly saw the situation at the scene:

On one side is a group of construction workers in overalls, and on the other side is a middle-aged aristocrat in splendid costumes, gold and silver.

Sanji bowed slightly, with an impeccable smile on his face:

"Gentlemen, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Hearing this, the nobleman followed his prestige:

I saw Sanji with blonde hair, a suit and leather shoes, and shiny leather shoes, looking very stylish, obviously a gentleman worthy of talking to someone of his class.

The middle-aged nobleman's iron-blue face suddenly soothed a lot, but his tone was still a little aggressive:

"It's not because of these mud legs!"

Hearing this, Sanji's brows quietly furrowed.

But the middle-aged nobleman was extremely indignant in his heart, and he didn't notice the change in the expression on Sanji's face at all.

He pointed to a few construction workers sitting beside him, and said indignantly:

"Their food looks too ugly!"

"Especially this stinky boy in a straw hat..."

"He didn't eat enough at his own table, and even ran to my table to grab something to eat!"

"Look at..."

The middle-aged nobleman picked up a half-broken plate from the table:

"This bastard, he swallowed half of my plate!"

“......”

Sanji was a little speechless, but cast a questioning gaze on the worker in the straw hat:

"Is this true?"

"Huh?"

Luffy had a big elbow he had just snatched from the next table in his mouth and glanced back at Sanji with extremely clear eyes.

Then, in a strange form, he swallowed the whole elbow into his belly, which was already bulging like a ball, and said to Sanji with a calm face:

"yes, because I'm so hungry."

"And I've never eaten meat like this before."

These foods are all made by the chefs of Bharati's restaurant, and naturally they are not on the same level as the game barbecue and construction site meals that Luffy ate before.

And in front of Luffy's desk, the stacked dishes were already taller than people.

Apparently quite devotive.

Sanji never blamed a hungry person who was immersed in food, so he had to shake his head helplessly, and helped the straw hat boy who looked a little stunned to apologize to the middle-aged nobleman in a kind voice:

"I'm sorry, it was our negligence."

"I'll prepare new food and utensils for you right away."

"No way!"

The middle-aged nobleman was unforgiving, and immediately said to Sanji arrogantly:

"Just apologize and you're done?!"

He waved his hand at Luffy and several of his co-workers:

"Why are they sitting with us nobles?"

"You have to kick them out before I accept the apology!"

"What did you say?!"

As soon as these words came out, a group of workers stood up excitedly.

And Zoro, who had been standing beside Luffy without saying a word, quietly put his hand on the hilt of the knife on his waist.

But it seems that with the support of Sanji's "staff", the middle-aged aristocrat is not at all afraid of the many powerful workers.

He couldn't help but not flinch, but instead took out the arrogance unique to the aristocracy:

"What, am I not right?"

"I'm a partner of Debang in the XX Kingdom!"

"A month's business dealings between me and Debang Company are enough for you mud legs to earn for a lifetime!"

"Then why do people of my status sit with you lowly people?"

After these words...

But it was the excited workers who put out the fire first.

Most of them were the lowest level of the original Old Goa Kingdom, untouchables who ate on the garbage mountain.

Years of oppressive life have made them accustomed to groveling to the aristocracy; It wasn't until Galen swept away the nobility of the Goa kingdom that their lives finally improved.

However, the strength of the Debang Company was still weak, and it could not clear the nobles of the entire East China Sea after all.

In order to achieve rapid development, the company also had to select some powerful nobles in the East China Sea kingdoms as temporary collaborators.

So, the aristocracy, which should have disappeared from the lives of the workers, reappeared before them;

Moreover, he even gave himself the title of "Debang Company Partner".

The workers all rely on Debang Company to eat, so naturally they don't dare to offend such a ruthless character.

"Haha..."

The middle-aged aristocrat smiled disdainfully: "It's good to know and understand the rules!" ”

Then, he said to Sanji:

"So, what are you waiting for?"

"Why don't you get rid of those lowly people?"

“......”

Sanji didn't speak, but his face gradually became gloomy.

A moment later, Sanji suddenly had a formulaic smile on his face:

"I'm sorry."

"We really shouldn't let such a lowly person sit here."

The workers' faces turned pale.

Luffy quietly put down the large flesh and bone he was holding in his hand, and Zoro's katana was quietly cut out of the scabbard.

"Hahaha!"

The middle-aged nobleman nodded and smiled with satisfaction:

"That's right..."

Before he finished speaking, his whole person was lifted up by Sanji.

Sanji has a lot of strength, and carrying this nobleman in one hand is like carrying a rag doll.

"I'm sorry."

Sanji smiled and nodded slightly to the workers:

"It was indeed our negligence to let you sit with such a lowly person."

"I'll kick him out now!"

As he spoke, Sanji threw the middle-aged nobleman in his hand casually...

His bloated and fat body rolled on the ground like a leather ball, and finally popped all the way more than ten meters away.

"Okay!"

The workers laughed and applauded.

The sharp color in Luffy and Zoro's eyes also quietly disappeared.

"But, damn!"

The middle-aged nobleman got up from the ground with a blue nose and swollen face, and pointed at Sanji tremblingly and said:

"I'm a partner of Debang Company, how dare you humiliate me like this?"

"I'm going to call the shots of your boss!"

"You, you guys, just wait to be expelled!"

Hearing the cruel words of the middle-aged nobleman...

Luffy ate the meat intently, Zoro casually fiddled with the knife at his waist, and Sanji, who was doing it, stared at the middle-aged nobleman with the eyes of garbage.

"How dare you look at me like that?"

The middle-aged nobleman made a loud noise, howling as loudly as killing a pig:

"That's how you treat a nobleman?"

"I'm looking for the leader of your Debang company!"

Luffy and the three of them were dismissive, but the workers were inevitably a little uneasy in their hearts.

But at this moment, a clear and powerful voice suddenly sounded behind the middle-aged nobleman:

"Looking for the leader of Debang Company?"

"What are you looking for me?"

The middle-aged nobleman turned to look and saw a tall and handsome young man in a white suit standing behind him.

"Guy, Lord Galen?!"

The middle-aged nobleman was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim.

The entire venue was quiet at this moment.

All eyes are on here.

"You..."

Galen glanced coldly at the middle-aged nobleman:

"Is it a nobleman? Or a partner of our company? ”

"yes, yes."

The middle-aged nobleman replied tremblingly, but instinctively felt a chill down his spine.

Galen frowned slightly, then turned to Wallace, who was following beside him, and asked:

"Among our company's partners, there is such an old aristocrat?"

"This..."

Wallace smiled a little embarrassed:

"In order to develop quickly, we can only compromise with those in power in some areas."

"Especially..."

"Those countries that are members of the world government."

The regimes of the countries that are members of the world government are all recognized and protected by the world government.

Debang Company can eradicate pirates and warlords, but it has never dared to be ruthless against the member countries of the world government.

Even when Galen lifted the table of the Kingdom of Goea, he relied on the fig leaf of "internal coup".

"Ugh..."

"The revolution is not complete!"

Galen shook his head helplessly, but his voice became cold:

"Wallace, we don't have to make any more compromises in the future."

"Huh?"

Wallace was slightly stunned.

"I'm in the way of the World Government."

Galen waved his hand and motioned to his entourage to take down the middle-aged nobleman:

"This kind of aristocracy who does not accept ideological transformation will be arranged in the future."
