Chapter 390: Polusalino: Oh my god, come out to eat, there is actually an unexpected gain!
Brown sunglasses, a yellow-and-white striped suit, a purple tie, a dark green shirt, and white leather shoes - the person who is so riotous and completely contrary to the concept of simplicity is naturally no one else.
That's right, for a bite to eat, the strongest admiral who can come from Marin Vantor to the sea restaurant Bharati in the East China Sea during working hours, Polusalino!
And the person he talks to is also none other than Sanji, who will form a deep bond with this sea restaurant Bharati in the original plot of the pirates.
"The menu of the sea restaurant Bharati is ......"
Immediately behind Porusalino, Sanji's hands in his pockets as angry as he were. It's just that compared to Polusalino's complete leisurely coming to eat, his eyes flashed with a light called anticipation, and there was also a little excitement and fighting spirit - his cooking teacher in the Navy headquarters, Best ยท Grand Chef Cook once told him that when he was younger, he had a chance encounter with a pirate who was proficient in cooking on the Great Voyage. Although the two have different positions, the other's cooking skills and personality as a chef are fully recognized by him.
And this pirate who is proficient in cooking is the founder and chef of the current sea restaurant Bharati, "Redfoot" Jep!
Although Porusalino just smiled and said that he had brought Sanji here to eat, Sanji himself regarded this surprise visit to Bharati as a reunion with Zhepu on behalf of his teacher - otherwise, why would so many young people in the Navy Headquarters just call him? Dry rice should obviously be called Luffy, the king of big stomachs!
So โ is it a friendly visit? Or gamble on everything the chef is fighting to the death?
โฆโฆ
Once the fierce boatswain of the Chef Pirates, Paddy is now the chef and lobby manager of the sea restaurant Bharati.
Nearly two years ago, Paddy, who had not yet entered the great voyage, was high-spirited, not afraid of heaven and earth, even if it was a battle of life and death, he would never frown and flinch.
But now, after a year of arduous voyages on the Great Voyage, and the nightmare of being stranded on an island and starving, Paddy feels like he's been reborn.
He has become much calmer, no longer yelling and shouting to fight as before, and yearning for a day when there is no tomorrow at sea. His favorite words these days are "customer first" and "thank you for coming" โ though he still can't resist punching customers who waste food or throwing people who eat overlord meals into the sea.
And, unlike Jepp the Red-Footed and many of the other chefs in Bharati, Paddy is not disabled. He is one of the few able-bodied people here, so he holds the position of lobby manager.
Of course, because normal people can rarely stand the weird and bad temper boss and a group of companions, Paddy, as the lobby manager, has to go into the back kitchen to stir-fry or serve the dishes himself during busy times.
With the strength of his right index finger holding two plates of steaks and two goblets, and a bottle of red wine on his head, Paddy strode to a table as if he didn't care if the wine would fall.
After putting down the food, he looked out the window absentmindedly while pouring wine for the guests. But when he saw the big ship coming outside through the window, the original ease on his face suddenly disappeared, and his eyes widened, and he didn't even notice that the wine had already overflowed.
"Hey! Idiot! What are you doing! โ
The middle-aged man sitting at the dining table, just looking at his clothes, knew that he was not a powerless poor ghost, and when he saw that the wine was spilled, he slammed the table to recall Paddy's thoughts.
Paidy came to his senses, ignoring the customer's reaction, and hurriedly put the bottle on the table, thinking about walking in the direction of the kitchen.
When the middle-aged man at the table saw him like this, he laughed angrily:
"That's how you do business? Where's your lobby manager?! Where's your boss!? โ
The male customer tried to get up and grab Paddy, but Paddy shook him off.
Paddy turned his head and said coldly to the man:
"Lao Tzu is the lobby manager! Also, if you don't want to die, it's better to sit honestly for Lao Tzu! โ
The boatswain of the Chef Pirates, who was fearless in fighting people at sea, seemed to be back at this moment, and Paddy's murderous face was unpretentious, and his bulging muscles frightened the customers who wanted to continue their theories to sit back honestly.
When Paddy left, the male customer who had been frightened before calmed down. But he wasn't dining here alone, but with a female companion.
He felt quite embarrassed to be so embarrassed in front of his female companion, but he didn't dare to go to Paddy's theory again, so he had to complain quietly, and then got up and went to the window to see what caused Paddy's sudden change of color.
But when he saw the situation outside the window, his face changed as well.
"What's wrong?"
His female companion asked curiously.
"The navy, it's a first-class warship of the navy!"
The male customer's eyes widened.
As a well-known merchant in the East China Sea, the insight of male customers is naturally different from that of ordinary civilians. In fact, because of business matters, he has dealt with many local naval branches in the East China Sea many times.
But it was precisely because of this that he felt panicked after the shock, and sat back in his chair with a pale face, the whole person fidgeting, and sweat falling down.
Seeing Polusalino, who was dressed in the great armor of naval justice, and Sanji, who was following him, the idlers at the gate of Bharati avoided one after another, looking like they were afraid of a conflict with them - although these people did not recognize Polusalino at the first time, the huge naval warship he had just come down was more intimidating than anything else, so in a few moments, he and Sanji walked to the main entrance of the restaurant.
The female companion of the male customer, seeing the man's frightened appearance, frowned slightly, and hurriedly comforted:
"It's a navy and it's not a vicious pirate, why are you afraid of being like this? And haven't you dealt with the Navy many times? โ
"It's because it's the Navy! And it's a navy with a lot of origin! โ
The male customer was dissatisfied: "I tell you not to believe too much in the newspaper reports about the navy, and take a look at the real discussion of the hidden name and identity on the phone bug network!" Those newspapers are full of lies, in order to tout the stories made up by the navy, they are all paid for, and they are all fake! Do you understand fake news? โ
His female companion retorted unhappily:
"The whole world knows that the navy fights pirates and upholds justice, and it's not just the newspapers that say so, how can it be fake?"
"Anyway, you believe me!"
For the sake of face, of course, the male customer could not tell his female companion the story of his many dealings with the navy and being regarded as a friend by the naval officers, but the truth was that he was blackmailed by some naval branches in the East China Sea, and even the goods were seized.
That's why he was so frightened now - outside the window was a first-class warship he had only heard of but had never seen before, and the shock was simply exaggerated! Who knows what kind of naval officer will come from above such a monster battleship? And how big will the appetite of a guy with such a background be?
You know, the major of the 21st branch he met last time ate enough of his cargo! It's even more ruthless than the pirates!
Because it was just a dry sentence, his female companion didn't believe what he said at all, and pouted angrily.
But she only sulked for a moment, and then looked in the direction of the door of the restaurant.
.......
When Paddy finds Jepp in the kitchen, Jep is harshly reprimanding a young chef when he sees a anxious Paddy coming.
"What's wrong?"
After all, Paddy is also a former pirate who has been to the Great Voyage, and his psychological quality is not too bad, and his appearance inevitably makes Zhepu feel strange questions.
Patdy glanced at the young chef and said in a deep voice to Jep:
"Boss, you're here! It's the Navy's first-class warship 'Touching Fish'! โ
The young chef on the side looked at the two of them with a curious expression, in his memory, Boss Zhepu and Manager Paddy had always seemed to be unafraid, and there had never been a time like now, when they only heard the name of a ship, their faces were full of solemnity.
"The ...... of the Navy's first-class warship 'Touching Fish'"
Zhepu's beard trembled, and Tong Kong suddenly contracted: "So...... Is that Yellow Ape coming? โ
"I came to you before I saw him get off the boat,"
Paddy frowned and said, "But it is said that the 'Touching Fish' does not leave the Navy Headquarters at all on weekdays, and once it leaves, the Yellow Ape General is going to perform an important mission, so he must have come in person." โ
"You go and call the old fellow,"
Zhepu wiped the grease stains on his hands with his apron, then took off the apron and threw it directly into the face of the young chef next to him, and said to Paddy with a serious face, "I'll go and meet this troublesome guest first." โ
- In fact, the best way for Zhepu to deal with it at this time is not to show up, after all, whether Polusalino comes or not, the "Touching Fish" is a naval warship, and it must be the navy that appears. And he used to be a pirate, and most of the chefs here are also former pirates. Although they think they have withdrawn from the pirate industry, the navy has never said to agree with such a statement, and Zhep's wanted warrant will probably still be in effect 20 years later.
But after all, Jepp is the owner and head chef of Bharati, and he has to do it himself, both out of total importance to his guests and responsibility to the restaurant.
โฆโฆ
Polusalino took Sanji in front of the restaurant, looked up at the sign, smiled inexplicably, and then walked in. The restaurant, which was still a little noisy, became silent after the two of them entered.
At the table where Piedi was served before, the female customer probed her head for a while, her eyes scanned Polusalino and Sanji behind him, and muttered to herself:
"Is there a mistake, why is the monkey wearing a navy uniform, and the handsome guy is just wearing a suit...... No, monkeys shouldn't be in the navy......"
- Sanji actually wore a navy uniform like the rest of the young people when he was in Marin Vando, but this time he was visiting the "Sea Restaurant" Bharati, and rounding up was equivalent to a tour of the Holy Land, so Polusalino deliberately let him change into the classic black suit skin in the original plot.
By the way, it is precisely because of this that Sanji feels that this time is not a simple meal - he has heard that the CP9 managed by the eldest sister Robin always hides his identity and disguises himself when he performs classified tasks on weekdays.
"What did you say?"
Her male companion asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that what the newspapers report does seem to be problematic, and the navy is not all handsome guys who uphold justice."
The female customer said with some disappointment.
When Jep walked out of the kitchen, Polusalino was already seated. Although Zhepu had broken a leg, his movement was unhindered, and he stepped on the wooden prosthetic leg and walked to Polusalino who was sitting at the table in the middle of the dining room.
Out of vigilance, Zhepu has been secretly observing his surroundings as he walks. But unfortunately, he only saw Porusalino and Sanji next to Polusalino.
If Polusalino had led a large group of men, Jep might have felt a little more relaxed at this time, because perhaps he had come here to eat by chance, like the rest of the captains, and everyone on board had come with him.
But just sitting alone and sitting so arrogantly always gave him the feeling that he had a very clear goal, that is, he had come to Bharati to find trouble......
ใ
In particular, Sanji, who was next to Polusalino, was staring at Zhepu unabashedly at this time, and it was not the kind of look that diners looked at the chef.
Zhepu gritted his teeth, walked to Polusalino's table, and said in a deep voice:
"I really didn't expect a big man like you to come to the East China Sea and come to a small shop like ours...... General Yellow Ape! โ
