Pirate's Swordsman

Different from the outside, once inside the cabin, the temperature suddenly rose a lot. The warmth surrounded the body, dissipating a lot of the chill caused by the wind and snow. Xia Nuo had just jumped down the escalator. Before he could stand still, a somewhat startled voice came to his ears:

"Brother Xia Nuo? Why did you come down first? Where are the two guys Paddy and Carl?"

As soon as he heard this name, Shano knew who it was. He turned around and saw, as expected, Sanji was looking at him with a confused face, and he was holding a square serving plate in his hand, with two bottles of sake placed on the edge. , and in the middle, two plates of food were steaming, as if they had just been brought out of the kitchen.

"It's just two idiots, leave them alone." Xia Nuo happened to be a little thirsty. After replying lazily, he took a bottle of sake and drank it in one gulp while looking around. While saying: "What is the situation on this ship? What about the old man and the others? Why are they all so mysterious? Why are they hiding in hiding when I come back?"

"It's nothing about the boat." Sanji scratched his head and said, "The old man ordered this when he went to Pulos Island before. It seems that it will be used as an underwater dessert restaurant in the future. Speaking of which, this idea is still with you, Xia Nuo. I learned from the Shudong Winery, saying that you have to create your own characteristics in order to attract customers for a long time."

"This is not why I opened the Shudong Wine House..." Someone complained silently in his heart.

"As for why everyone is hiding it from you, of course it's to give you a surprise. Don't forget, today is the day when you officially set sail, Xia Nuo." Seeing that Xia Nuo didn't say anything, Sanji continued to explain with a smile, "On a day like this, how can we not have a happy farewell banquet?"

"Farewell party..."

Xia Nuo curled his lips and said nothing, but already took steps towards the end of the corridor. Sanji, after being stunned for a moment, suddenly grinned and hurriedly chased after him like a follower.

…………

At the end, there was a retro-style wooden door. After Xia Nuo pushed it open, the dazzling light suddenly hit his face. He frowned and blinked several times before he could barely adapt. But when he took a closer look at the scene in front of him, it was He stayed in place for a moment.

What appeared in front of me was an extremely gorgeously decorated restaurant. Both the tables, chairs and wall decorations had a strong Gothic style. There were at least thirty or forty chefs sitting next to the long table. They were chatting in a circle, laughing and exchanging something in a low voice. After noticing the movement at the door, they immediately stopped talking and laughing, and their eyes converged on Xia Nuo.

"Why are you all looking at me like this?" Xia Nuo felt uncomfortable being stared at, and she raised her eyes and said, "We haven't seen each other for a day, is that all?"

However, what happened next moment was far beyond his expectation. After all the chefs looked at each other, they seemed to have reached some consensus. They all stood up and left the table. Then, under Xia Nuo's disbelieving eyes, they took out various things from the bottom of the chair, the corner, and so on. Weapons of all kinds, such as brooms, spatulas, kitchen knives, etc., surrounded him with smiles.

"Hold the grass, wait...wait, what do you want to do..." Xia Nuo was completely confused, subconsciously stepped back, and hurriedly pulled out Lake Toya, pointing in front of him with a swipe. A bunch of chefs said, "First of all, I'm warning you, don't seek death. Have you all forgotten how you were defeated by me before?"

"Nonsence!"

However, this group of people didn't seem to buy it at all, and they all spat together. The fat man at the front looked like he was filled with indignation, "It's just because we couldn't beat you before, so everyone just swallowed their anger. Now you can't."

It's time to leave. How can we do it if we don't get the place back? "

"That's right! Don't let him get away, everyone. We only have this opportunity, so we must not waste it!" A tall and thin chef behind also shouted.

"Everyone come together and beat this little bastard to death!"

"There are so many of us, he can't beat us!!!"

…………

More and more people were shouting and cheering, and their voices were getting louder and louder. However, after Xia Nuo waited for a long time, no one came forward. Suddenly, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he said feebly: "Hey, I said, don't talk so much. , should we fight or not..."

"..." The chefs suddenly lost their temper. After all, the image that Xia Nuo has built up in their eyes in the past three years is that he can fight, whether it is an unknown soldier who just went to sea, or someone with a reward of three million, five million, or even nearly ten million. A big pirate in China, if you encounter Xia Nuo, you will be kicked out directly... After many years, it is a bit scary just thinking about it...

However, revenge must be avenged. After staring at each other for a long time, the fat man in the lead finally gritted his teeth and roared: "Fight, why not fight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the big iron spoon in his hand and rushed towards Xia Nuo. When the others saw that the leader finally appeared, their courage suddenly increased, and they followed with roars.

"This is years of resentment. Wake up, Xia Nuo!"

In an instant, there were mountains of people. From an outside perspective, Xia Nuo's current situation could probably fully explain what it means to be a big man...

Well, as for the results...

It was probably during the banquet that, except for Shano and Sanji, everyone else, including Paddy and Carl, who arrived later and joined the battle excitedly, all had bruises and swollen faces, and some were still dripping. Nosebleed, at first glance, it was like a different group of people, which led Zhepu to almost think that he was on the wrong boat when he came in carrying the last dish from the kitchen.

Fortunately, this atmosphere did not last until the end of the banquet. Whether it was the dishes and snacks cooked by Zhepu himself or the various kinds of fine wines, they were all quite tempting. Most of the people were drunk while drinking and drinking. Yes, they were laughing and joking with each other, which dispelled a lot of sadness before parting...

Well, in fact, there is no sadness at all... If there is, it is the sadness caused by Xia Nuo backhandedly teaching him a lesson when he came back without revenge...

Unknowingly, the wind and snow outside the window finally stopped.

The sky gradually cleared up, and the warm winter sun tore the thick clouds into pieces, cruising unscrupulously on the vast sea. After the farewell banquet was over and everyone had had their fill of wine and food, all the chefs gathered on the floating platform at the gate to prepare to see off Xiano who was about to go to sea.

Zhepu did not come. Just like in the original book before Sanji went to sea, this smelly old man had always adhered to the principle of "a man's farewell does not require tears" and stayed in the underwater dessert restaurant without showing up, but he asked Sanji to give Xia Pu Nuo sent an old book with a yellow leather cover, which he said was his logbook on the Grand Route. This was also something that a qualified captain should have in the era of great pirates.

After flipping through it a few times, Xia Nuo took it to the bedroom of his small boat. Although he felt that he was unlikely to use this logbook, it was the old man's intention after all, and he couldn't just let it go. Just send it back like this.

Not to mention, he always felt that the smelly old man was hiding behind some window, secretly watching everything on the beach.
