Chapter 103: Food Street
"There is a woman in this world who can eat as much as Luffy!"
"What a miscalculation!!"
Nami under the stage frowned, biting her fingernails, and her heart was restless.
According to the record pointer, the group was originally going to the capital of the seven waters, but when passing through the sea train station, Luffy was attracted by the 'food street' in the mouth of Granny Cocoro, and because they were not as eager to repair the Merry as in the original work, they simply changed their route here.
Then, by coincidence, they met the relay competition of the Big Stomach King team, and in the face of the 10 million Bailey, as well as the tempting reward of being able to eat a big meal for free, the Straw Hat Pirates did not hesitate and unanimously chose to sign up.
Originally, I thought that they had Luffy, a rubber man, and it would be easy to win the championship, but I didn't expect that at the last moment, there was an opponent who was on par with him, not only a woman, but also a female pirate with a bounty of over 100 million!
"In short, Luffy, you must not lose! Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to afford that much money......"
On the stage, Luffy and Pony stared wide-eyed, no one was convinced, but the movements on their hands and mouths did not pause at all, and the speed was unimaginably fast, which amazed all the spectators.
"The two have been eating at this rate for almost an hour straight...... Is their belly a bottomless pit? β
"What an unimaginable amount of energy!!"
"You're talking about the amount of food, right?"
"I know them! are all sea pirates who have become famous during this time!! β
"Joelly Poni, captain of the Pony Pirates, was born in the South China Seas and offered a bounty of 140 million Bailey; Monchi S. D. Luffy, the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, was born in the East China Sea, and offered a bounty of 100 million Bailey. β
Hearing the bounty offered by the two, Usopp and Chopper, who had already fallen to the ground, were directly stunned, and got up from the ground in astonishment: "What?!" This woman's bounty is higher than Luffy?! β
In the Great Voyage, any pirate who can offer a bounty of more than 100 million within a year of going to sea is qualified to be called a 'supernova', and these pirates all have strong strength, and more than ninety percent of them are Devil Fruit abilities.
After all, swordsmanship and physical skills not only require extraordinary talent and perseverance, but also powerful opponents to hone themselves, and those rookie pirates who flock to the great voyage from all over the world, the opponents they could have access to were all small characters, so they relied on these two to become supernovas less than one-tenth.
Only the Devil Fruit, which has supernatural powers, can allow a newcomer to the pirates to gain great power in a short period of time, so as to become famous and attract the attention of the navy.
There are countless islands on the Great Route, which can be roughly divided into two categories: one belongs to the 'Seven Great Routes', which follow these islands and eventually converge in the Chambord Islands, and the other does not belong to the 'Seven Great Routes' and is a transit point for the former.
Taking the route of the Straw Hat Pirates in the original work as an example, the islands that belong to the seven major routes include Whiskey Peak, Small Garden, Alabastan, Sky Island, Long Ring Island, Capital of Seven Waters, and Fish-Man Island; Places that do not belong to the seven major shipping routes include Magnetic Drum Island, Gaya Island, Justice Island, Derror Dhow, and Chambord Islands.
Generally speaking, after entering the Great Route, you will choose a route to move forward, and you can't change it in between, but this is not absolute, as long as there are permanent pointers to other islands, you can still change the route.
For example, if someone finds that they can't reach the Sky Island, they will buy pointers to the islands of other routes.
In addition, the recording pointer has been seized by other islands, and if it is unable to reach the island it is pointing at within the time limit, it will be attracted to other islands.
Finally, if an island hosts a 'grand event' and a permanent pointer is issued to attract pirates, as in the theatrical version, those pirates may also leave their routes for a while and run to other islands to participate in the event.
This is the case with the current Bonnie Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates, both of whom were attracted by the name of the 'food court' here.
An hour later, Luffy and Pony finally decided the winner.
Bell Bell Bell !!
The host excitedly beat gongs and drums and announced the results of the competition to more than 100 contestants and countless spectators.
"At the end of the game, Bonnie couldn't continue to fight, and this game of the 'Big Stomach King Five-Person Team Relay Race' was won by the Straw Hat Pirates!!"
"Congratulations on their 10 million Bailey!!"
Immediately afterwards, the smile on the host's face became even stronger: "As for the other contestants, I can only say sorry to you, please share the food expenses for participating in the competition this time!" β
The applause stopped instantly, and the people who originally applauded looked at each other with a slumped face, and they suddenly remembered that they still had to pay for the food of the two foodies!
Oh, my God! What a lot of money!!
No, it seems to be ......
Just as the eyes of this group of people were wandering, ready to run away or kill someone, rows of people in strong suits and bodyguard-like appearances stood up and began to stabilize the surrounding order.
Then the host immediately added, breaking the air that was about to freeze: "But the defeated contestants don't have to worry, the organizer will give you a 70% discount on all food on the island in the next three days, and you can also carry out a lottery after accumulating a certain amount of consumption......
Hearing that there were coupons and lotteries, those defeated players reined in their murderous intentions, and then saw the rows of bodyguards, and finally could only sigh helplessly and obediently pay.
This big stomach king competition is a big gamble, all the rules are clear at the beginning, the winner is a prostitute, the loser pays, their participation in the game is equivalent to acquiescing to this rule, now if they go back on their word and are spread out, they don't have to mix in the sea in the future.
Afterwards, Luffy and his party touched their stomachs with satisfaction, carried 10 million Bailey, and left the competition venue with a 50% discount coupon for all the delicacies on the island in three days - as a champion, it is natural that the coupon is different from the loser!
"Ahh I'm so filling!! β
"I still can't believe that there are people who can match Luffy when it comes to eating...... Who is that woman? β
"I've heard that she's also a pirate, and the bounty is higher than Luffy's!"
"Nani?! That beautiful lady?! β
"Uh-huh......"
Several people chatted noisily, while wandering around the island, enjoying the aroma and taste of food, and at the same time making money through their own abilities, for example, Sanji relied on cooking competitions, and Luffy relied on challenges to eat various foods, and there was no normal pirate posture at all.
Soon, the day passed, and at sunset, the group returned to the Merry with a large pile of food and Bailey.
"We're back, Merry!!"
On the Golden Merry, a little elf in a raincoat staggered on the deck, smiling and welcoming everyone back: "Welcome back, everyone!" β
It's Merry!
The ship elf is a special soul, and it is normally difficult to be born, and even if it is born, it is difficult to appear in front of humans, but for people like Kira who have mastered related magic, it is not too simple to keep its spirit body in a state that can be seen by everyone at all times.
You know, Mebis used to be in this state, and the principle is the same.
It's just that although magic can maintain Merry's existence and make it appear in front of everyone in human form, only the Straw Hats can see it, and it can't leave Merry.
"You're bored here alone, aren't you? Let me tell you, we met a woman on the island today who knows how to eat like Luffy......"
Just as Luffy and his party were frolicking and preparing for today's dinner, not far from the Golden Merry, a small sailboat was heading here.
This is a pirate ship, with a pirate flag flying on the top of the ship, three skulls painted on it, and behind the skull, there are four white bone sticks arranged in the shape of a 'meter'.
They are none other than the Blackbeard Pirates!!
At the bow of the boat, a man more than three meters tall, with a rough body, vigorous body hair, a hideous and ugly face, and eyes full of ambition, was staring at the wanted warrant in his hand.
On the wanted notice, a young boy wearing a straw hat is showing a big smiling face towards the camera, with the words 'DEADORALIVE' and 'MONKEYΒ· D. LUFFY' and the words '100,000,000 Bailey', this is Luffy's bounty order.
Blackbeard opened his mouth, which had few teeth left, and let out a burst of disgusting laughter: "Hahaha!! β
"Are you on the island in front of you? Straw Hat Luffy!! β
"Let's use you as my pedal to become the Seven Martial Seas!!"
