Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

After Xiaoyu left on the pretext of "going to the bathroom", Luffy lay down with a look of regret on his face: "Huh~ This is not enough to eat."

"I saw that you were enjoying your meal just now?" Bai Ye teased.

"Hehe, that was made specially for us by Xiaoyu." Luffy replied with a smile: "She is such a good person. By the way, Sanji..."

"Ok?"

"In return, let's prepare a sumptuous dinner for Xiaoyu! I see she didn't eat just now, she must be very hungry." Luffy said loudly.

Sanji stood up as if he had expected it. "I knew you would say that. I'll go get ready then."

"Yeah, I want to eat a lot of meat!" Luffy's eyes lit up: "And octopus balls!"

"You prepared this for yourself!!!" Usopp couldn't help but complain.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but burst into laughter. Although their captain looked brainless, he was surprisingly attentive at a time like this.

Not only did he not embarrass Xiaoyu, he even thought of a way to make Xiaoyu feel at ease accepting the return gifts from him and others.

At this moment, Bai Ye's raised mouth suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look at the door, and it seemed that someone he didn't like had arrived.

With a bang, the door was kicked open from the outside.

The man was wearing clothes imitating a Tengu, with a pair of wings on his back and a Tengu mask on his face.

He held a precious sword in his hand, pointed it at everyone fiercely, and shouted loudly: "Who are you guys?!"

To his surprise, everyone in the room seemed to have known of his arrival and they all looked at him calmly.

Of course, this cannot be said to be the case for everyone.

Luffy opened his mouth wide, looked at the long nose on the Tengu mask, and exclaimed: "Usopp?! Is this true..."

"I'm right next to you! Idiot!" Usopp chopped Luffy's head with a very skillful hand knife.

"Hmm? This knife..." Zoro's eyes focused, and he saw the weapon in the Tengu man's hand at a glance.

Not only is it a precious sword worthy of being ranked among the great swords, but Zoro also sensed a familiar aura in the blade.

He stroked his sword, the Sandaime Kitetsu, and had some vague guesses in his mind.

The Tengu man didn't pay attention to Luffy's antics and Zoro's eyes, and he saw the dishes and chopsticks that had not been cleared away in front of everyone.

"Did... you eat the rice in my house?" he asked.

"Well, it was Xiaoyu who specially entertained us." Luffy answered in a familiar manner.

"You bastard!!!" The Tengu man was instantly furious and raised his knife to chop at Luffy: "Why does Xiaoyu have to cook for you? Do you know that kid hasn't eaten for several days?"

Just then, a figure appeared in front of the man.

The speed was so fast that the Tengu man had no time to react, and it even felt like he was right in front of him.

The figure's fingers, glowing with golden light, gently pointed out and blocked the unstoppable blade.

A small wave of air rose up, and the figure's Taoist robe fluttered continuously.

The Tengu man saw a face, a face that had no expression but was cold.

"Just say it if you have something to say." Bai Ye said, reached out his hand and took away his sword and scabbard, and threw it directly to Zoro behind him.

The situation in the room froze instantly.

The Tengu man didn't know Bai Ye's identity, but the fleeting feeling of oppression just now had already made him feel cold all over.

That is the deterrence caused by the same absolute strength as Kaido.

Even though it was his own home, the Tengu man felt completely insecure.

He even suspected that the other party was a cadre of the Beasts Pirates.

Has his identity been exposed?

Zoro took the sword but did not check it immediately. Like the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates, he looked suspiciously at Byakuya who suddenly attacked.

Logically speaking, given Bai Ye's lazy personality and his tendency to plan before acting, it would be impossible for him to do such an impulsive thing.

Their strength had long been enough to sense the Tengu man's knife, and they did not have much killing intent, but were mostly filled with anger and questioning.

Referring to what he said before, it was obvious that he had misunderstood something.

So Bai Ye's sudden move gave them the feeling that he was targeting the man wearing the Tengu mask...

Could it be that the other party is from the Beasts Pirates? But this doesn't match what I said before.

Now Bai Ye has no intention of continuing to take action... What is this guy doing?

Even Robin, who was very observant, was a little puzzled.

As for Luffy, he obviously didn't have so many thoughts, and even felt like he was watching a show.

In his opinion, everything Bai Ye did had its own reasons, so why think so much?

"We are pirates who just arrived in Wano Country today. We met Xiaoyu by coincidence, and she also treated us to this meal."

After taking the knife, Bai Ye sat down leisurely, looked at the Tengu man and said, "It's your turn."

He sensed the doubts of others, but was not prepared to explain anything because he couldn't explain it clearly.

Should I tell them that I am very upset with this guy because I have read the original novel?

...

After a moment, the Tengu man seemed to realize that he had no other choice and had to speak:

"I am Tenguyama Feiche, Xiaoyu's master."

"Uncle Tengu, what did you mean by Xiaoyu not eating for a few days?" Nami asked directly. Although she could guess that Xiaoyu's family was living in difficulty, she was still a little surprised that she had not eaten for a few days.

"You are outsiders, but you should also know some things about Wano Country."

Tenguyama Hitetsu said: "This was once an administrative village governed by the Kozuki family, famous for producing bamboo hats..."

When talking about the Kozuki family, Tenguyama Hichet's voice was obviously a little unnatural.

"But after the Great Snake came to power, the entire Jiuli became an abandoned existence... In short, Xiaoyu weaved bamboo hats day and night, and even if she sold all of them, she might not be able to support herself. She usually ate barnyard grass..."

Tenguyama Hitetsu's voice turned sad: "But I want her to at least be able to eat rice on her birthday and during the New Year..."

"Today is Xiaoyu's seventh birthday. We saved money for several days for this day. I asked her to buy rice in town..."

"Why...why did I get eaten by you guys?!"

At this time, Tenguyama Hiche, who was thinking of the sad things, no longer cared about Bai Ye's oppressive feeling, and angrily questioned everyone again.

"Master, stop it now!!!"

The door was pushed open, and Xiaoyu staggered into the room, crying loudly: "Please forgive me for cooking the rice without my permission, but they are my saviors."

"Please! Don't let me be ashamed of this."

Even children have their own dignity...

Xiaoyu, with tears streaming down her face, wanted to kneel on the ground and kowtow to her master, but Bai Ye came to her side, supported her, and shook his head.

He doesn't think Xiaoyu should kneel down...

Xiaoyu was stunned at first, but she didn't have time to think about it. Then she turned around and shouted to her master: "I will work harder to weave the hat. Please forgive me and let me repay my benefactors!"

Tenguyama Feiche stood there in a daze, seemingly not knowing what to say.
