I am brushing up materials in One Piece

86 Behind every successful pirate group is an excellent food reserve

"Kodaz? You named it so quickly?"

Looking at the naked cat on the hospital bed, which was completely devoid of cuteness, Kos felt a little disgusted, but it seemed that Ace was ready to raise it.

"Yes, this is what I thought of, how about it?"

Ace gently stroked Kodaz, who was lying on the hospital bed, causing the already asleep Kodaz to make a cute "purr" sound like a kitten that was out of proportion to its size.

"The swelling on this child's feet seems to be caused by a hunter's trap, which means it probably doesn't have much kindness towards humans."

Deus reminded Ace in his own way while checking Kodaz's condition.

"If you want to tame this kind of beast, it's best to start from a young age. Adult individuals like this will inevitably be a little wild and untamable."

In Kos' field of vision, he can see that this feline still has level 17, which is equivalent to himself one month after entering this world. It is still a bit threatening if it gets violent and hurts people.

"Wait a minute! Don't you all want to raise Kodaz's? They are so cute."

Ace looked stunned.

"But, is it cute?"

Even Michal, who had always maintained a transparent state, couldn't help but look at the feline creature on the hospital bed in confusion, then smiled awkwardly and then returned to silence.

"No, I'm just stating the facts. It will be good for everyone when it is released into the wild after it recovers."

Deus turned around and opened a medicine cabinet, took out anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drugs and started mixing them.

So Ace put his hope in Kos.

"If it is used as a food reserve, I think herbivores are more suitable. They are easy to feed and there is no risk of harming people."

Kos joked, shrugging.

"Wait a minute! Kodaz is our partner, how can you..."

Ace looked lovingly at the big cat on the hospital bed, looking at its shaved, crystal-clear skin, and tears suddenly flowed down from the corners of his mouth.

After wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Ace looked at Kos with an expectant look on his face.

"Is it tasty?"

Kodaz, who originally slept peacefully, may have sensed the danger to his life, subconsciously shuddered and opened his eyes, looking around in horror.

"Unappetizing!"

Kos rolled his eyes at Ace for an unknown number of times, and then looked at the frightened Kodaz,

"Don't worry, no one wants to eat you, at least I won't send you into the kitchen."

By the way, Kos serves as the chef on the Gray Pearl, but not because of how good his cooking skills are, but because Ace and Deus can only make dark dishes such as isatis root noodles. One will just bring lumps of coke to the table.

After receiving Kos's assurance, Kodaz looked at Ace with distrustful eyes.

"Sorry, sorry, I was wrong."

When admitting his mistake, Ace did not forget to wipe away the last traces of saliva from the corner of his mouth.

After confirming that he would not enter the oil pan while asleep, Kodaz finally closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

"It seems quite humane."

Judging from Kodaz's reaction, it is much smarter than ordinary animals, so Kos is not worried about it hurting people at will, and with a little training, it will not urinate anywhere.

"That way it shouldn't be too much trouble to raise."

"Hmph, Kos, you finally succumbed to Kodaz's cuteness!"

Ace proudly touched Kodaz's cat's head, which elicited a series of cute "purruls".

"No, I don't like cats. Strictly speaking, I'm actually a dog fan, and I like the kind of docile and loyal large dogs."

Kos looked at Kodaz's bald cat head again and shook his head.

"This little guy... you just like it."

No matter what, the Spade Pirates finally have their fifth member, although it’s just a cat whose specific category is unknown.

In addition, Ace was about to enter the Grand Line, so Ace prepared to hold a banquet to celebrate.

But since the chef's Cos is still in a state of unrecovered pain, he can only keep everything simple. The main course is dried meat and freshly caught fish from the lake, which are still fragrant after Ace simply heated them with a flame and grilled them slowly; there are also snacks such as dried fruits, raisins and persimmons; and a large barrel of rum. Drink as much as you like.

Even Kos poured a small glass of rum and drank it slowly. After all, the Grand Route was below, and it was the beginning of the official journey. It could indeed be a little celebration.

Also, it was already completely dark now, so it would be too risky to rush down directly through the not-so-wide canal.

Therefore, we can't move on tonight, and the only reason for Ace's impatience to calm down and wait for one night is to use a banquet.

but……

"Yo ho——"

Looking at the Charger driving at high speed on the lake, and Ace drinking heavily from a large wooden wine glass on it, Kos began to think about whether to stop Ace's drunk driving behavior.

The cause of the matter was that Michal asked about the other three people's acquaintance, and then naturally mentioned the Stormtrooper, which was the biggest contributor to their escape, and then Ace drove the Stormtrooper out in a ostentatious manner, and after a long absence. He started galloping to his heart's content.

"By the way, Michal, can you swim?"

Kos suddenly looked at Michal who was silently eating dried fruits and drinking wine.

Michal put down his wine glass and asked, "I'm pretty good at it, why do you suddenly ask me this?"

"That's good."

Kos nodded, then produced a chain from his palm and said,

"As you can see, that idiot captain and I are both Devil Fruit users, so once we fall into the water, someone must rescue us, so if we encounter an unexpected situation, we have to rely on you and Deus."

"Well, I understand."

Michal nodded. He still knew a little about Devil Fruits and knew that people who eat Devil Fruits have a weakness of not being able to swim.

"Fortunately you joined us, otherwise Ace and I would have fallen into the water at the same time. Deus would have been alone..."

"boom--"

Suddenly the sound of a cannon interrupted the conversation between Kos and Michal.

"……too busy."

After the sound of the gunfire ended, Kos made up for what he had not finished, and then immediately looked towards the direction from which the sound came.

"Wow—"

A cannonball landed near the Gray Pearl, and a huge splash of water fell on the deck, soaking the barbecue in Cos' hand.

"Enemy attack!"

Kos immediately turned around to remind Deus and Michal, but these two people had also put down their food and wine glasses and entered a state of combat readiness.

Deus immediately took Michal to pull up the anchor, and then started the Gray Pearl. Just after the two of them did this, two more shells fell on the spot where the Gray Pearl was originally parked.

"The person who came here is evil!"

With the flickering light of the cannonball, Kos could barely see that it was a ketch flying a pirate flag.
