Sea Restaurant 'Barati', lobby on the first floor.

The banquet continues, and Luffy and Ace are completely transformed into a source of happiness, laughing and laughing while eating and drinking.

Karina was so entangled by Luffy that she had no choice but to sing on stage, singing folk songs that have become popular in Tokai in recent years. The chefs take the dishes and beat them with knives and forks to accompaniment, and the rhythm is excellent. Usopp erected the spare table and Sauron held the leg of the chair as a drum to beat, and the entire restaurant on the first floor was plunged into a sea of joy.

Nami has been trained by Victor since she was a child, and she doesn't lose her temper at this time, but just chuckles with a wine glass. Sanji's right eye turned into a peach heart, and the whole person swirled and twisted around Nami like a whirlwind, constantly offering courtesy: "Miss Nami~~ Do you remember me?" ”

"Remember, Sanji, right? That hunter's revolver was given to you by Master. ”

Nami still has some impressions of the blonde young man in estrus in front of her, and the original dwarf has become a handsome guy with long legs, but this temperament is really ...... Don't dare to compliment.

Before Sanji could say something, suddenly there was some commotion on the other side of the banquet.

I saw Luffy and Ace holding a fork with a large piece of stew, and both buried their heads in the plate full of seafood fried rice, motionless.

"All of a sudden, they fell, what's the matter! Could it be that there is something wrong with our food? ”

"No, all the ingredients are carefully selected and high-quality food, and there is no possibility of a problem."

"Did the injuries you suffered in the previous battle erupt and die with a whimper?"

"What about the doctors?"

The chefs ran around in a panic, only Karina and Nami walked over at the same time, and punched Luffy and Ace on the back of the head respectively, "Don't sleep, big fool!" ”

Luffy and Ace raised their heads all of a sudden, looked around blankly, and then grabbed Karina's skirt at the same time and pulled it up to wipe the rice grains on their faces.

A minute later.

Luffy and Ace had a series of large bags on their heads, and whispered with tears in the corners of their eyes and grinning teeth:

"It hurts so much, Ace, it feels like I'm being beaten by my grandfather......"

Ace rubbed his head and grinned, "It's 'domineering'...... Shhh ”

"Eight...... Seven? Luffy tilted his head to indicate that he didn't understand at all.

"It's domineering!"

Ace scratched his chin, organized his words, and explained, "As long as you have this kind of power, you can greatly strengthen your attack and defense, and it is a very practical combat skill to be able to catch the entity of the Devil Fruit ability." Oh yes, nine times out of ten, the powerhouses of the Great Voyage will do this. ”

"Good, good!"

Luffy looked excited: "So the Great Voyage is so powerful?" Ace, you also learned this technique in the Great Voyage? ”

"Uh......" Ace paused, "I do have a 'master', although his temper is not very good, but he has taught me a lot of fighting skills, and so is domineering." ”

"I want to learn too! Is that okay, Ace? Luffy's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Sauron, who was sitting not far away, also pricked up his ears, and the wine in his hand instantly became unfragrant.

"There are no taboos in this thing, you can learn it, but if you don't know the tricks, it's easy to practice your body by doing it blindly."

Ace took a bite of fried rice, and said with a puff of cheeks: "Either you get a domineering cultivation method, or you have a teacher to guide you." After all, the 'armed color' is different from the 'seeing and hearing color', and the latter is more talented. ”

"And what is the color of the armament?" Sauron couldn't help it, and leaned over and asked.

Ace glanced at Sauron and explained: "The armed color domineering can cover the surface of the body, greatly strengthening the body's defense and even attack power, and those with advanced skills can also spread the armed color domineering to the weapon in their hands, making it an indestructible 'black knife'." Seeing and hearing domineering is a skill that can 'hear' the movements of long-range creatures, whether it is used in battle to avoid attacks or seek enemies. ”

"And this fighting technique......"

Sauron was sweaty on his forehead, but he couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth.

"Ace! Teach us! Luffy said impatiently.

It's been a long time since I've seen my brother show a look of adoration on his face, and Ace is still a little proud, but he still refuses after thinking about it: "I'm sorry Luffy, I'm afraid not." This time we didn't come to the East China Sea to play, so we didn't have time to do it. ”

"Ace is right, we still have important things to do, and we don't have time to stay and teach you how to use domineering."

Nami walked over, glared at Ace fiercely, and then looked at Luffy: "But it's good for you and your pirate group to know about domineering in advance, after all, even in the first half of the Great Voyage, few people in the 'paradise' knew about the existence of domineering." The starting point is already very high, little brother, you have earned it. ”

"Hey, what do you mean by that almsgiving tone?"

There was a slam on the table, and Karina was upset. The captain of his own ship can toss as much as he wants, and others are not allowed to bully!

"Literally, this ...... Ms. Fox. Nami looked Karina up and down and frowned, "It's not good for you to know about high-level power too early. ”

Karina stepped forward step by step until she walked in front of Nami, towering against the towering and then both deformed, with a great visual impact: "It's just domineering or something, Luffy will definitely be able to learn it, so I don't need you to teach it!" Look down on people less, you orange cat! ”

The corners of Nami's mouth slightly hooked up a cold arc, and she didn't give an inch.

Luffy and Ace looked left and right, and neither dared to interject.

Just as the atmosphere began to freeze, a gentle voice came from the door:

"Nami, don't be rude."

Nami, who had been a domineering female president before, heard this voice and immediately stepped aside like a mouse seeing a cat. Ace also sat upright, not forgetting to take off the orange cowboy hat on his head.

The others turned their heads to look, and saw a slender and well-proportioned blonde man standing at the main entrance of the restaurant on the first floor, his appearance was extremely handsome, as if a god had descended into the world, wearing a delicate and low-key black suit, white roses pinned to his chest, and a black velvet coat, and at this time he looked at the restaurant owner Tetsuo with a smile:

"Boss Tetsuo, Sanji, long time no see."

Tetsuo was stunned for a moment, then stroked his chest with one hand and bowed slightly: "I haven't seen you for eight years, Mr. Victor." ”

Sanji looked surprised: "Mr. Victor! I have always taken good care of the gun you gave me! ”

Karina had long forgotten the unpleasantness with Nami, and saw that the purple-haired beauty with a bumpy figure had her eyes turned peach-hearted, and muttered, "Actually, it's Lord Murder Chain...... A living murderous chain! Signature, signature...... Do you want Lord Murder Chain to sign me on my chest or ...... Oh, it's embarrassing, Karina, you shameless little fox!! ”

Not to mention Karina, who was rolling on the floor, Luffy stood up and looked keenly at Victor, who looked back at him with a smile.

Finally, we met.
