Chapter 408: Our Baroque Works Eat Your Restaurant’s Meal, Don’t You Have to Pay Us?
Chapter 408 - Our Baroque Works Eat Your Restaurant’s Meal, Don’t You Have to Pay Us?
Ocean-going restaurant, Baratie.
This was a restaurant operating on the sea.
The entire restaurant was a transformed huge ship, and the restaurant’s chef was once a pirate who had entered the Grand Line for a year.
A warship slowly stopped at the entrance of the restaurant.
Just as the ocean-going restaurant people thought that a big shot from the marine came, three figures came down from the warship, making everyone’s eyes tighten.
“Devil Child with a bounty of 120 million!”
“Fishman with a bounty of 150 million!”
“And Uehara with a bounty of 30 million!”
When Uehara and the others came in, they immediately attracted everyone’s attention because their wanted posters had just been sent to the ocean-going restaurant yesterday.
Everyone’s eyes involuntarily fell on them. Even the weakest Uehara here had a higher bounty than the most terrible pirate in East Blue!
To be honest, few people in East Blue had seen pirates with a bounty of hundreds of millions. The strongest pirates they had seen in their life, perhaps the chef of this ocean-going restaurant, Red-Leg Zeff, which was only 74 million Beli.
Even if many waiters and chefs in this restaurant were once pirates, they did not dare to imagine that there would be a pirate with a bounty of hundreds of millions that would come here!
“We are from Baroque Works.”
Uehara introduced himself to everyone he saw. He slowly sat down and looked at a vigilant waiter. He said with a smile, “We heard that the ocean-going restaurant Baratie is the best restaurant in East Blue.”
“That’s right.”
The waiter nodded with a trembling voice.
“Don’t be nervous.”
Uehara narrowed his eyes and revealed a sunny smile on his face. He softly comforted the waiter, “If what you made is delicious, we won’t pay; if it doesn’t suit our taste, we will tear down this restaurant. Do you understand?”
“…”
The waiter was shocked.
Was this a f*cking human language?
He was clearly here to pick a fight, wasn’t he?
If not for the fact that the three of them weren’t easy to deal with, this waiter really wanted to teach them a good lesson and let them know how to speak properly…
Unfortunately, he didn’t have the courage to do so.
“Oh, right.”
Uehara still had a smile on his face. He raised a finger and said something that made people’s hair stand on end, “Please get ready as soon as possible because our Baroque Works earn a million Beli per minute. Every minute we wait for food to be served, you have to pay our Baroque Works a million Beli. Do you understand?”
“…”
The waiter’s expression changed slightly.
They were simply here to pick a fight!
Uehara tilted his head, narrowed his eyes, and smiled warmly, “Your expression… Do you have any objections to what I said?”
“…”
The waiter rushed to the back kitchen!
This kind of powerful pirate was not something he could deal with, and now he could only ask their head chef Zeff!𝒇𝘳ee𝚠𝘦𝚋n૦𝐯el coｍ
Kisame looked at Uehara.
He could not help but grin and say, “It’s really bad! Any restaurant can not satisfy this condition!”
“Is that so?”
Uehara tapped his finger on the table and looked at the clock in the restaurant. He slowly said, “Maybe they can really satisfy this condition!”
In less than a minute.
One waiter after another walked out. Each waiter held a plate in their hands and placed it on the table.
Most of these dishes were cold dishes.
A blonde youth walked over with a cigarette in his mouth and placed a bottle of red wine on the table.
“This bottle of wine is for the few of you.”
After the blond youth took a light puff of his cigarette, he looked at the three people present and said, “I’m Sanji, the sous chef of this restaurant. I made all these dishes. If you are not satisfied with the dishes, you can come to me… “
“The teacher is strict, I can’t drink.”
Uehara looked up at Sanji and said slowly, “Because you brought a bottle of wine and ruined our mood. Our Baroque Works will destroy the entire Baratie now…”
“Tsk…”
Sanji, who was only 16 years old this year, took a puff on his cigarette and sighed, “You pirates are really here to pick a fight!”
“Yes!”
Uehara nodded slowly and extended a palm to fan his nose. He smiled and continued, “Now, because you smoke in front of me, someone will die, but you can freely choose the person who will die…”
Uehara tilted his head and looked at Sanji calmly, “Oh… let me think about the person we will kill! The first candidate is the head chef of this restaurant, Red Leg Zeff? As for the other person…”
“…”
After Sanji heard Red Leg Zeff’s name, his pupils shrank slightly because Zeff raised him.
To Sanji, Zeff was like a real father. Not only did he raise him up, but he also guided him to find a life that truly belonged to him.
Uehara tilted his head, looked at Sanji, and continued, “The second candidate… let me think about it again…”
Speaking up to this point, Uehara suddenly smiled, “What do you think about killing that woman, Vinsmoke Reiju? Anyway, our Baroque Works is about to start a war with Vinsmoke Family in the North Blue!”
“…”
Sanji’s expression changed drastically!
How did this guy know his identity?
For so many years, he had never mentioned it to anyone!
The Vinsmoke family was the family where Sanji was born. Although he had long wanted to sever ties with that family in his heart, the only person in the family with who he still had feelings was his sister, Vinsmoke Reiju.
This person was too terrifying…
How could such a thing be found out!
Nico Robin’s expression was subtle. She still didn’t quite understand the relationship between these people, but when did the Baroque Works want to start a war with the Vinsmoke Family in the North Blue?
How many enemies did Uehara want to provoke for the Baroque Works?
Was it only until the entire sea had to encircle and annihilate the Baroque Works would be willing to give up?
Uehara looked at the ugly expression on Sanji’s face and said with satisfaction, “Alright, I’m hungry. Although this restaurant must be demolished and people must be killed, we still have to eat food…”
“…”
Sanji’s face was cloudy and uncertain. He could not help but clench his fist.
“After all, a chef can’t watch someone starve.”
Sanji suddenly put out the cigarette in his hand and said softly, “If the guest is hungry, then I won’t disturb your meal for the time being. We will settle everything after you finish your meal.”
These words were really polite.
This was the education Zeff had given to Sanji so that the prince, who was once truly distinguished, was still as elegant and gentle as a prince.
Uehara smiled and nodded. He continued softly, “Oh, by the way, you held me for a few minutes just now. Remember to prepare a few million Beli. Do you understand?”
“Ah, that…”
Sanji clenched his fists again and said softly, “I already said that we will settle accounts after the guests have finished eating!”
After Sanji left the dining table, he slowly walked to the back kitchen. Seeing the worried faces of everyone, he frowned slightly.
One of the sous chefs in the same position as him couldn’t help but ask, “Hey, Sanji, what’s the situation now?”
“Don’t ask me!”
Sanji couldn’t help but rub his eyebrows and said in a low voice, “You guys… take advantage of the time when they are still eating and flee with Zeff!”
“What do you mean?”
“Those pirates are going to destroy Baratie!”
Sanji clenched his fist and continued in a deep voice, “Zeff will definitely stay and fight with them… But that will only cost him his life. Those guys are stronger than I thought. Just standing beside them makes me break out in cold sweat!”
Yes, very strong!
Sanji had always been pretending to be very calm in front of Uehara and still maintained his demeanor. That was because he had experienced something that made him even more terrified.
Originally, Sanji had always thought that his father, Vinsmoke Judge, was the most cold-blooded person in the world. Unexpectedly, today he met an even more cold-blooded person…
Uehara Naraku!
Was it that guy’s name?
Baroque Works!
Was this the organization where that guy was staying?
Just as Sanji was curled up on the ground and his face covered in cold sweat. He was still thinking about his death when he suddenly felt someone pat his shoulder.
Sanji’s expression suddenly changed. He jumped up and wanted to kick the person in front of him away. Unfortunately, this person kicked out a leg faster than his jumping speed!
The Red Leg Zeff kicked Sanji to the ground and said with a face full of displeasure, “Sanji, what are you doing again, you bastard! The guest has a big opinion about you!”
“What?”
Sanji suddenly raised his head and looked at Zeff in front of him, “Hey, why haven’t you left yet? Those guys…”
“What nonsense! If you were talking about those powerful guests, they have already left after eating!”
Zeff’s voice was like a bell. He held a piece of paper in front of Sanji and said angrily, “The guests have made great comments on our Baratie. You must not smoke at your age!”
Sanji grabbed the paper.
A few lines of words were clearly written on the paper.
[Mr. Sanji:
The food you make is delicious. We have decided not to punish this restaurant for the time being. Of course, we will not pay the bill because we want to have a free meal.
Also, talking to you took three minutes of our time, so we took 3 million Beli.
Finally, thank you for your hospitality.
By the way, your restaurant is really profitable, I can’t help but want to come a few more times.
Sincerely, Baroque Works.]
This Baroque Works directly became the number one enemy in Sanji’s heart!
“Bastard… dare to play with me!”
Sanji forcefully held the paper in his hand, and his anger suddenly filled his face. He walked step by step towards the door, “Those pirates actually ate a free meal?”
Was this still a human?
To go to a restaurant to eat without paying and rob the restaurant money!
These pirates were really worse than he imagined!
They were clearly such powerful pirates, but they actually robbed a small restaurant like theirs!
At the same time.
On the marine warship.
Uehara was bored to death as he looked at his obtained rewards. He began to sigh in his heart at the wonderful beginning of the Novice Village. This was becoming stronger while lying down!
[Side Mission: Enjoy a delicious meal at the ocean-going restaurant, Baratie.]
[Mission completed.]
[Reward: +500 Lie Energy, +500 Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki), and +500 Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki).]
[Side Mission: Enjoy a delicious meal made by Sanji(1/1).]
[Mission completed.]
[Reward: +10,000 Lie Energy, +10,000 Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki), and +10,000 Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki).]
[Side Mission: Eat a free meal(1/1). Reward: 100 gold coins. ]
This was really the Novice Village.
According to the data, one meal can be compared with a big pirate with a bounty of hundreds of millions!
In addition to Baratie’s mission, there was another mission about Uehara’s bounty. After his bounty reached 30 million, he received a new reward.
[Side Mission: Bounty reached 30,000,000 Beli(1/1).]
[Mission completed.]
[Reward: +3,000 Lie Energy, +3,000 Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki), and +3,000 Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki).]
Uehara held a straw in his mouth. After looking at the reward he had obtained, he slowly opened the map, “Before we go to Cocoyashi Village, let’s go pick up a little girl and let her watch us dig their tangerine tree!”
