Chefs and Eaters

For ordinary people, hunger is undoubtedly a very terrible feeling. In order to fill their stomachs, most ordinary people have to run endlessly for their own livelihood. For an idiot who has plenty of physical strength, is also quite naughty and unrestrained, there are many ways to obtain food. In the forest, it is natural to rely on the mountains to eat. Whether it is animals or plants, you can use them to satisfy your hunger. But in a city with a large number of humans, well... it is quite easy to solve such hunger.

"So, why do you serve empty plates in your store? What I ordered was obviously a lobster dinner."

An angry tourist obviously thought he had been insulted, and the clerk who was questioned was even more innocent: "Sir, many people saw it when I came out, how could I serve you an empty plate? You ate the food and refused to admit it." This is not okay.”

"It's the same thing here... However, I did see the food, but in the blink of an eye, the plate was empty."

"Damn~! What's going on? Is this store teasing its customers?"

"So, gentlemen, we have indeed served the food. It is intolerable for you to refuse to acknowledge your order after you have finished eating."

A messy dispute is currently going on in the food street of Bellemere. As a small island country, Bellemere's coastline is the national border, and the surrounding sea currents are also good, so an open-air seafood delicacy The streets are naturally quite harmonious, but just now, when a customer discovered that the meal he ordered was only an empty plate, a mysterious disappearance of food swept the entire street.

The navy who came to handle the dispute undoubtedly felt a huge headache. Both the customers and the clerks were insistent and unyielding. And judging from the scene alone, these navy undoubtedly did not have the ability to handle this case. Unexpected detective skills.

Therefore, as the highest military officer in the Navy at present, it is natural that Captain Fenbudi would be alarmed.

"You specifically interrupted my work and asked me to come here just to deal with this stupid dispute?"

Fenbudi was obviously in a bad mood. He had also thought that if pirates invaded, he would at least be able to get some merit and popularity right away. Maybe the beautiful steward would also fall in love with him. Even getting the favor of the beautiful queen is not impossible.

But the reality is undoubtedly quite cruel. Fenbudi did not find an opportunity to be a hero at all, but these trivial matters were nothing more than ordinary farce in his eyes.

"But, Captain...how exactly are we going to handle this?"

Seeing the dissatisfaction of his boss, the lieutenant who notified Fenbudi had to wipe his sweat while asking questions with a smiling face. After all, the garrisoned navy is a defense force and one of its responsibilities is to mediate disputes. If he cannot handle the large number of diners in the food street this time, If there is a dispute, I am afraid that the Navy's credibility here will not be able to rise in the future.

"Are your brains used as paste? Things like this are naturally the responsibility of the merchants. Handcuff these unscrupulous profiteers and lock them up for a few days. Then they will naturally know how to serve their customers well."

Expressing his conclusion impatiently, Fenbudi obviously had no intention of delving into the matter. Perhaps he could respond with direct force when facing the obvious evil of pirates, but when dealing with such civil disputes, time, but undoubtedly not much enthusiasm.

After all, tourists are the most important thing. If these merchants, who are still in the tax holiday, alarm the navy because of food disputes, they will have to pay a corresponding price. That's right, Fenbudi doesn't care whether he really lost the food or cheated people with empty plates. What he cares about is that these merchants actually used these boring things to alarm the navy, which is a protective force. Then These civilians must know the price of alarming the power of justice.

"Why! We have always been honest merchants, how could the Navy be like this~!"

The merchants who heard Fenbudi's arbitrary conclusion were shocked. Not one restaurant in this food street was unlucky, but seven or eight restaurants had suffered from this mysterious disappearance of food. If they were all handcuffed If so, it would undoubtedly be a rhythm that would empty out half of the food court.

"It's so annoying! I am the naval commander stationed on this island! I was specially sent here by the headquarters to deal with pirates! And you untrustworthy merchants actually fooled the customers with empty plates. This is what you have to pay. cost!"

Impatiently interrupting the store owners' argument, Fenbudi waved his hand: "Why are you still standing there? Take all these people away!"

"This...is! Take these people away!"

Gritting his teeth, the lieutenant in charge of the operation had to issue his own order. Anyway, this may be the right way to handle the matter. After all, firstly, this is not a big deal, and secondly, the navy is not sure which side is right now. So, it is better to wrongly accuse these stores than wrongly accuse the tourists who come to visit.

"hateful..."

After reluctantly stopping the argument, the store owners involved in this matter had to stretch out their hands dejectedly, preparing to welcome the navy's handcuffs. After all, they no longer had any hope.

"Hey~ You're really too much, don't you even want to ask what's going on?"

However, obviously not everyone will be silent at this moment. A dissatisfied voice also sounded from the crowd on one side. Looking back proudly, Fenbudi looked disdainfully towards the direction of the voice: "Who ?If you dare to question the Navy’s decision, then stand up.”

Due to the lewd power displayed by Fenbudi, the crowd he saw could not help but separate left and right, and then a tall blond young man was revealed. It seemed that he had no intention of hiding his appearance, and the blond young man had no intention of hiding his appearance. He walked out of it fearfully, and then casually came to a table where the crime was suspected: "Look at this plate, you can still see the traces of sauce clearly. This already shows that this plate was indeed taken out when it was taken out." There was food, but someone took the food away from it. That’s why the diners saw an empty plate in front of them.”

He dipped his index finger into a little sauce from the plate, and the blond young man licked it casually, then shook his head and continued: "This sauce is a particularly pungent garlic chili sauce. In other words, as long as you look for it in the crowd, Whoever has this taste in his mouth will naturally know who is eating it secretly."

There is no doubt that the blond chef who appeared here is Sanji. He came to the food court today with the intention of accepting a batch of pre-ordered seafood, but he saw that Fenbudi was going to convict so many chefs indiscriminately. Go, this is naturally intolerable to Sanji, who is also a chef.

Perhaps Sanji's appearance gave those store owners hope. The store owners who had given up resistance were undoubtedly able to stand firm again. After all, missing food is a small matter, but being wrongly accused of being a criminal who deliberately deducted food to tease customers would be troublesome. , the reputation of a business comes from its credibility. If you really want to sit back and watch this matter, then you may not be able to do business in the future.

"Ha~! It's so funny! If you say so, could the person who stole the food be a transparent person?"

But Fenbudi undoubtedly couldn't let Sanji succeed in arguing like this. After all, he was the first to arbitrarily make the decision to detain those stores. If another person proves that this decision is wrong, then what will happen to his face? ? Not to mention that this also directly involves the credibility and prestige of the navy stationed here. If you can't even do such a simple little thing, how can you win the trust of the nobles of Bellemere in the future.

"So, I need to find that person. The taste of garlic chili sauce is quite special. I just need to search around here to find the person who really stole it."

Sanji was undoubtedly a little angry when he saw Fenbudi clinging to the truth like a bastard and refusing to let go, but as Barati's chef, he obviously couldn't conflict with the navy casually.

"Um...actually, I just saw what took away the food on my plate...but, how should I say it? Because it was too strange, so I didn't dare to say..."

At this time, a timid clerk also murmured, and his tone was full of uncertainty: "It was like... a particularly long arm suddenly appeared in front of me, and then took away the plate. The food in the plate was too fast... When I came back to my senses, I found that the plate was empty..."

Undoubtedly, such remarks resonated with other people at the scene. Several tourists who were also puzzled also said: "Really? I thought it was just my hallucination...could it be that you also saw it?" To that very long arm?”

"Yeah, yeah...it can't be some kind of monster, right?"

"Anyway, it doesn't look like a human arm..."

Such a weird and slightly terrifying topic undoubtedly made the navy present shaken. As the navy at the headquarters, they obviously still have a conscience. Characterizing some possibly innocent people as criminals is not something they can afford.

"Shut up! What about the 'suddenly extending' arms! Is this a bedtime horror story for children? I have no interest in listening to you talk in your sleep here!"

Fenbudi, who was already a little angry, waved his hands fiercely, and his tone was a little arrogant: "If there really is that kind of weirdo who can stretch his arms, how about calling him out now? In that case, I will believe it. .”

"Tch~! You guy!"

Seeing Fenbudi being so unreasonable, Sanji couldn't help but get angry. As a passionate young man, it was obviously impossible for him to tolerate such a reversal of right and wrong happening under his nose. However, even so, the blond young man could not help but feel angry. Undoubtedly worried. After all, Fenbudi is a regular navy representing the garrison force of this country, and Sanji himself doesn't matter, but if he does something, it will inevitably involve the maritime restaurant Barati, and now he has promised Usopp to think about it together. There is no way to save Keya, but if he causes any trouble at this time, it will undoubtedly be extremely inappropriate.

"Huh? Who called me?"

But at this tense moment, a voice that sounded extremely natural and innocent suddenly rang above everyone's heads, and subconsciously raised their heads, everyone also saw a man squatting on a roof at the moment, extremely curious. He looked down at the young man below.

As if to prove his 'rightness', the young man wearing a rounded straw hat stretched out his right hand as he spoke, and the right arm that looked no different from a normal person's arm stretched out for ten meters like rubber. From a distance, he grabbed a roast chicken from the dining table below, then brought it to his mouth and started gnawing on it.

"Uh...you are the prisoner!"

Sanji was stunned for a while by the sudden appearance of this guy, and then came back to his senses. Sanji yelled angrily: "Do you know how much trouble your behavior has caused?"

"Um...really? Sorry, I'm really hungry and can't bear it~ Besides, the food here is really delicious~"

There is no doubt that the person sitting on the roof is Luffy. The expression of his lack of money but hunger is that this rubber boy relied on his far superior physical strength and speed to do something similar to Hong Qigong on the roof. The thing is to rely on your own quick skills to steal food from ordinary diners. It's just that the speed is too fast, and the extension of the arms is too incredible for ordinary people, so no one is willing to think about it.

After swallowing the roasted chicken whole, Luffy jumped off the roof with a still unsatisfied look on his face, and then bowed to the surrounding shops in embarrassment: "Sorry~ I don't have any money, so This is the only way to get food to eat."

"Damn it! Now that you admit that you are a criminal, don't blame me!"

Perfectly playing the role of a villain who was slapped in the face, Fenbudi's mood has undoubtedly changed from irritation to anger. With an iron finger holding his own hands, this naval captain who is extremely confident in his own strength also roared and said: "Me! Captain Fenbudi! I will catch you with my own hands!"

"Huh? You are a marine, oh~ I am Luffy, a pirate."

Turning around with a smile, Luffy looked at Fenbudi in front of him and said, "Are you going to catch me now?"

"Damn it! He's still a pirate, that's even more unforgivable!"
