As the crowning masterpiece of the Charlotte family, Katakuri was undoubtedly the most intelligent man, and the distracted state of the World Government and the Navy Headquarters could not hide from his eyes.

It's just that until two years ago, he didn't think that he, the vanquished, would be implicated in it and become the key to maintaining balance used by the world government - the current king of the Seven Martial Seas, although not yet fully in place, but in the eyes of the five old stars, the "Sea Hero" Jinping, who represents Fish-Man Island, which has been bound by the Navy Headquarters, and the "Nose Song" Brooke, who was jointly elected by the Navy Executives, are a little too close to the Navy.

"You want me to obey your naval headquarters? Polusalino? ”

Katakuri rubbed his eyebrows - he also gave his own frank response to Polusalino's blunt question.

"Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas are an organization of the same level as our Navy Headquarters, and they are directly under the World Government, how can I make you obey our commands? This is not in accordance with the regulations,"

Polusalino shook his head decisively, then stretched out his hand and tapped the table a few times, as if emphasizing the content of his speech: "So I'm here to invite you to join our big plan and overthrow the world government with us!" Katakuri! ”

“？？？”

Rao was in Katakuri's heart, and he couldn't help but be a little confused at this time - he was indeed aware of the contradictions and differences between the Navy Headquarters and the World Government, and he had indeed just played a psychological game, and even faced Polusalino's question, he directly pointed out what he thought was the other party's purpose, but ......

Big plans? Overturning the world government?

I'm really here for the Navy Headquarters? Not the nest of the revolutionary army??

"I know you're confused, Katakuri, you might even think I'm kidding you,"

Polusalino puffed out the smoke of his cigar and smiled lightly, "But I'm serious, I can give you a good overview of our big plan, from the preparation to the goal, from the specific participants to the specific action process......"

"I have a question, Polusalino,"

Katakuri and Polusalino looked at each other and said bluntly, "I haven't agreed to join your big plan, have I?" If I ...... after listening to your statements"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the sound of boiling water boiling in the room, and the sudden rise in the heat caused fine beads of sweat on Katakuri's skin.

Sakasky had a gloomy and terrifying expression, obviously not saying anything, but as if he had said everything.

And Polusalino's explanation is just right:

"Killing you is only a small thing, but ...... You also don't want the Smuji to lose their existing jobs at the Navy Food Factory and be thrown into Impelton, right? Katakuri? ”

“……”

"Shall I continue?"

“…… Please speak. ”

……

Polusalino recounted the content of the last time in La Reli, Chambord, and adhered to the principle of "carrots and sticks", and he also took the initiative to draw a flatbread for Katakuri:

"After the new world government is established, you and your brothers and sisters like Katakuri can completely follow the regular process to re-establish all nations and join the system of the new world government......

"And if you negotiate with Fraser, it won't be a problem to get back into the waters of Totland......"

"Of course, if you have feelings for the Navy Food Factory, you can continue to do it, and when the time comes, you can open branches around the world......

"Even if you go back to sea, you can be an adventurer......

"Well, I've said it all here, and I'm willing to join the glorious ...... Big plans? ”

Polusalino leaned out for a handshake that meant a final invitation.

- Without any hesitation, Katakuri grasped his palm.

……

At the same time that Polusalino and the thug Sakasky were discussing a big plan to cooperate with Katakuri -

In the back kitchen of the No. 1 canteen of the Navy Headquarters, hundreds of chefs shuttled back and forth, their sturdy figures, brisk steps, and hands wielding kitchen knives were even more like phantoms.

In order to meet the dining needs of so many sailors in the Navy Headquarters, the level of the chefs here speaks for itself. Aside from other aspects, in terms of the knife technique of cutting vegetables, many people are enough to compete with the world's largest swordsman, Hawkeye.

"Hey! Speed up! General Zefa just issued a warning, that big stomach king is training eight percent faster than before today, so he will arrive at the battlefield in advance! ”

A stout sailor in a towering white chef's hat shouted.

He had dark blue anchor tattoos on his arms, a beard, and muscular arms the thickness of three thighs of a normal adult. Even the distraction reminded his companions that the movement of stirring three huge beef soup pots at the same time was not affected in the slightest, extremely silky and elegant.

It was Baster Cook, the supreme commander of this battlefield and one of the four Grand Chefs of the Navy Headquarters!

The other chefs in the kitchen, who were working on their own hands, changed their faces after hearing the boss's reminder:

"Isn't it? Will that stinky boy arrive earlier today? ”

"Damn! My roast chicken isn't hot enough! Why am I not a Fruit Burner Ability? I want FIRE!! ”

"No way! Only do your best to fight! Look at my meteor wok! ”

"Bet on the honor of our chef!"

"Oh!!"

- Since coming to the Navy Headquarters, Luffy, who has eaten the Dark Fruit and turned into a "Great Devourer", has become a nightmare for all the chefs in the Navy Headquarters. The amount of food he eats alone is as high as a thousand big stomach king sailors, and he directly refreshed the record of the previous big stomach king of the navy headquarters, that is, his grandfather Vice Admiral Karp, by more than ten times.

But at the same time that these chefs were trying their best to speed up the preparation of the food, next to the stove behind the head chef Baster Cook, the blonde young man in the same white top hat did not make any unnecessary movements at all, and still maintained the original frequency of spooning.

Whether it's the pre-Polusalino Earth or the Pirate World, chefs may wear a variety of overalls when they work, but for the most part, the hats they wear are basically the same - the same as the hat on the head of Chef Bastert Cook.

Chefs wear this kind of high hat, which can not only prevent hair and dandruff from falling into the dish, which is conducive to kitchen hygiene, but also more intuitively show their experience, level and cooking level. The more experienced and advanced the hat, the higher the height of the hat and the higher the level of cooking.

Therefore, the competition between the chefs of the Navy Headquarters is also known as the "top war".

Either way, in the culinary world, few people of the age of this blonde young man are qualified to wear a chef's hat of this height – especially in the back kitchen of the Navy No. 1 cafeteria, which is second only to the head chef Baster Cook.

"Don't struggle anymore, master, we're not that guy's opponent......"

The blonde young man, Vince Mock Sanji, looked very calm, and even had the mood and energy to hand his master a towel to wipe his sweat.

"Stinky boy! How old are you? Did you give up the honor of being a chef so easily?! ”

Although Chef Best Cook scolded and scolded, he still accepted the towel handed by Sanji very honestly - although the chefs have the habit of wiping sweat with their sleeves, the clean towels handed by the apprentices must be more pleasing to him than the sleeves.

"It's not a question of giving up the honor of a chef, it's that we simply don't have to face an invincible enemy......"

Sanji, who had challenged Luffy's appetite countless times with his fighting spirit, but every time he was exhausted and fainted, Sanji, now he also figured it out and lay down directly.

The chef's job is indeed to make the guests eat well, which is indeed their honor more important than life, but only if they entertain guests - and the "Great Devourer" Luffy, his amount of food, obviously does not belong to the category of humans.

"Can't be defeated at all? I don't understand! ”

Chef Best Cook's mouth was stiff, even though his hands were shaking from muscle memory.

"Then you can cheer up with them, and I'll carry you all back to the dormitory at that time."

"Hey! What do you mean! Stinky boy! ”

Chef Best Cook reprimanded his apprentice as he added the final seasoning to the beef stock pot with precision, but at this moment—

"Uncles! I'm here for dinner! ”

A cheerful and lively voice sounded from the kitchen door, followed by a huge suction force like a wind tunnel, and all kinds of dishes that were precisely locked, they were enveloped by this suction force, and flew into the mouth of the young man at the door.

"Ahh

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

……

Two hours later, with Luffy's help, Sanji finally carried the last exhausted senior brother to the rest room, and then returned to the messy back kitchen to clean up.

In order to deal with Luffy, the "Great Devourer", and to ensure that the meals of the rest of the sailors are not affected, Luffy's daily dining hall is fixed and circulated in order. And on the day he was in charge of eating, the chefs in the cafeteria only needed to prepare some additional meals for the senior generals - in this way, Luffy's damage to the catering system of the Navy headquarters would be minimized.

"I'm really serious, Sanji!"

Luffy, who was very satisfied with eating, crossed his hands on his hips and repeated the words he said five times today with a big grin: "Then you will be the chef on my ship!" ”

Sanji, who had blonde hair and curled eyebrows when he heard this for the sixth time, nodded perfunctorily and continued to be busy with the matter at hand: "Of course I know that you are very serious...... So help me wash the dishes over there. ”

"No problem! Leave it to me! ”

"Very good, remember to wash each plate three times, remember...... Bastard! I'm asking you to wash it, not letting you eat it!! ”

Sanji, who heard the sound of "quack, quack, rattle", turned his head sharply, and the dark leg shadow accompanied by his angry voice instantly imprinted on Luffy's body.

Being kicked away by the chef he had booked, Luffy not only didn't get angry at all, but also sat happily on the floor, feeding the remaining half of the plate in his hand as a snack in his mouth, while carefully assessing the strength of Sanji's kick just now:

"That's amazing, Sanji! You should have 3,000 power in this kick, right? That's great! The chef on my ship should have such combat effectiveness! ”

"3,000 Dao Force? Just kidding, I'm kicking ...... Bastard! Who said you want to be your chef! ”

The future Adventure King smiled brightly: "Didn't you say it yourself?" ”

“……”

Back in time, when "Dark Kid" Luffy first came to Marin Fando, he received a lot of training during the day, and at night he forgot to drink a glass of seawater to pressure his stomach, and he was hungry and panicked at night, so he came to the back kitchen of the Navy canteen to try to find something to eat.

And it just so happened that in order to meet the master's requirements, the little ghost head Sanji, who secretly practiced cooking skills in the kitchen at night, met him.

Then there is the gradual establishment of friendship and the establishment of agreements......

"I said I could cook something for you at any time to train with confidence, and I didn't mean that we were going to ...... Alas, forget it,"

Sanji looked at the grinning Luffy, sighed, and gave up his intention to continue explaining, but rubbed his chin, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he thought about it:

"Luffy, of course I can be the chef on your ship......"

"Really?!"

Luffy directly pounced, trying to give Sanji a warm hug, but was skillfully dodged by the latter and hit the wall directly.

Bang!

"But! You can't be the only one on a boat, the captain, and me, the cook, right? With just the two of us, we can't go to sea! Not even to go out to sea, even the dangerous currents near Marinfando can't be avoided! ”

"Uh-huh! Other words? ”

Luffy nodded like garlic.

"In other words, you'll have to deal with other crew members, such as the most critical ...... Navigator. ”

Sanji tried his best to restrain his expression and pretend to be objective.

"Navigator?"

Luffy looked at this good friend who had known him for many years rather confused, scratched his head in confusion and smirked, "I remember that Sanji's sailing class score was 60 points, right?" Isn't 60 already passing? Can't you be a navigator? ”

“……”

Sanji was silent, and then instantly erupted: "Stupid! Didn't you listen to Mr. Zefa? 60 points is just the minimum score to ensure that the ship does not sink! If you want to sail safely on the sea, you don't just need this level! ”

"And I'm 65! Bastard! ”

"Shuffle!"

Luffy tilted his head, "So who should I go to?" ”

"Yes, of course...... Ahem, I suggest you go to Miss Nami and find out. ”

"That's right! Nami! I remember her sailing class results very well! ”

Luffy's eyes widened.

"That's right...... So you should talk to Miss Nami more than me, and if she agrees to be your crew, I'm sure I'll be fine!" ”

"I see! I'm going to find Nami! Thanks, Sanji! Wait for my good news! ”

Looking at Luffy's figure who ran away quickly and his slippers were about to run away, Sanji's expression gradually lost control, and his laughter became more and more unbridled:

"Boom...... Jie Ji ...... Mmmmmmmmmmmm ”

Sanji knew very well that Nami, who had dreamed of becoming the treasury administrator of the Navy Headquarters, would not choose to leave Marin Fando at all, so it was impossible for Luffy to convince the other party.

And it's not just navigators, in other positions, you have to arrange people, right? Boatsmith or something, a shipdoctor or something.

Even taking a step back, no matter how Luffy and Nami's conversation turned out, at least during this time, Sanji didn't have to be annoyed by being constantly harassed by this kid.

Even take 10,000 steps back - including Nami, if Luffy really finds the crew and Sanji is finally forced to get on the ship, he can stay with the beautiful Nami, no loss!

"You act though, Luffy, no matter what, our IQ is 180 to 60, and the advantage is mine!"
