Chapter 174 Farewell Banquet
Chapter 174 Farewell Banquet
After an inexplicable farce, the diners on the ship were either politely persuaded to leave by the chefs or left voluntarily. In the afternoon, Barati was empty except for the Straw Hats and Quinn.
"Ah~" Stretching his body lazily, Chef Pedillo said with some emotion: "By the way, Barati rarely strays from the Sambas sea area."
"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, those two won't consider our problems." Carne said helplessly.
"The repair costs this time will definitely cost a lot, and the boss is worried again."
"Stop talking." A deep voice sounded, and Zhepu stood beside the two of them.
In his sight, Quinn and others were walking slowly.
"The expenses this time will be considered mine." Quinn threw away a large bag of wallets and sat down in a remote corner under the surprised eyes of everyone.
"Food is the best way to soothe people's hearts. If you don't mind, I would like to hold a banquet here." Quinn leaned back on the chair and looked around at everyone, "This is a farewell party."
Zhep threw the money bag towards Quinn again and said, "You don't need these. I will hold a banquet even if you don't tell me."
The chefs cast doubtful glances, while Zhepu focused his eyes on Sanji.
"Sanji is going to sea, how can we, as the main family, lose face?"
Sanji on the side was a little stunned when he heard this. He originally thought of explaining his thoughts to Zhepu later, but he didn't expect that the other party had already taken the initiative.
"Old man..."
Zhepu just shook his head slightly at him, then turned around and entered the kitchen.
Sanji hesitated for a moment, but still followed the other person into the kitchen. This might be the last time he would serve as the other person's helper.
"Banquet~Banquet~" Luffy patted his belly and hummed a song he had made up. Whenever the banquet was mentioned, he was always the one who reacted the most.
"What? It's a farewell party." Usopp pretended to be solemn and sat aside. Although the excitement of going to sea had been suppressed in his heart, it was inevitable that a person like Quinn came to see him off in person.
Nami looked sad, recalling the reluctance of being separated from her family, and now she was about to be separated from Quinn, and her unspeakable emotions had no one to talk to.
Quinn touched her head tenderly and whispered: "Everyone will be reluctant to leave their hometown. When you regard sailing as fun, you will understand all this."
Nami held her chin with her hands and looked at him blankly. She pouted and said, "But I don't want to be separated from you."
She acted like a girl in love. Although a certain scumbag dared not admit it, Nami was very sure of their relationship.
"Are you so worried about me staying with a group of men?" Nami's deliberate provocation method had no effect. She looked at the few men around her who were not considered men, and even she sighed.
All of them are weird, and even she wouldn't be wary of these guys.
"They are all excellent, aren't they." Quinn smiled faintly, with no hesitation in his words.
"Even if you say that, I won't have a good impression of you." Sanji appeared aside with a drink. Although his mouth was tough, his movements of putting down the cup were much gentler.
"Hey, am I great~" Luffy rubbed his head, looking embarrassed.
"No, no, I think you took advantage of me." Usopp's long nose almost turned up. Among the few people, he was the one who respected Quinn the most, so the other party's praise was very useful to him.
Zoro on the side smiled lightly and continued to wipe his sword with his head down.
Quinn was both a teacher and a friend to him, and he was more like a guide, leading him to the special existence of being strong.
He said it was respect, but more of it was yearning. He longed to talk to the other person on the same level.
"Sigh~ Although I know that my life will be exciting in the future, I still feel a little uneasy when I am with these unreliable guys." Nami said sincerely.
"Miss Nami, having me here will definitely make your life colorful~" Sanji actively showed his attentiveness.
"Sanji-kun is as considerate as ever, but he is a famous woman now." Nami took Quinn's arm intimately. For her, having an affair with Quinn was an extremely exciting thing.
Sanji, who was deeply hit, turned back to the kitchen with his back hunched and dragging heavy steps.
Everyone who saw this scene smiled, and Zoro laughed the hardest among them.
Laughter spreads in the restaurant, infecting the chefs who are busy in the kitchen. Smiles are a unique condiment that can make them in a happy mood make dishes beyond expectations.
After a short while, dishes after dishes were served on the table, including seafood, barbecue and green dishes, which were nutritionally balanced and beautiful at the same time.
After tasting it, Quinn nodded in agreement. It seemed that cooking was indeed a good skill, and it was necessary to study it in his spare time.
The priority of a banquet is the atmosphere and food. Only a party full of laughter is a real banquet. This principle is widely recognized in the pirate culture circle.
Whenever there is a banquet, Luffy can always attract the attention of others. Quinn himself has a big appetite, but in front of Luffy's real storm of intake, he can only be regarded as gentle and gentle.
Zoro was just distracted, and the piece of meat on the plate was taken away by Luffy, who had big hands and eyes. When he reacted, it had been chewed to pieces.
"You guy, finish what's on your plate first!"
"Of course you should save the ones that are close to me for last~" Luffy said vaguely with his mouth full of food.
The confident attitude made people speechless, and several people regretted why they accepted this guy's invitation.
Usopp secretly took out a bag of something from his bag and quickly smeared it on the meat. As he expected, Luffy quickly reached for his dinner plate.
Luffy didn't notice anything was wrong and immediately put the food in his hand into his mouth. He didn't react until a burning sensation spread through his brain.
The flames spitting out of her mouth seemed to have disabled Nami's abilities, and her anxious look for water relieved everyone's anger.
Usopp squinted his eyes, covered his mouth and snickered in one go. His skillful skills made him worthy of being Luffy's most trusted partner.
However, his method could only temporarily limit the opponent. Foodie Luffy's acceptance of spicy food obviously exceeded their expectations.
Seeing a new round of sweeps coming again, several people could only turn from passive to active defense.
The dishes were flying on the dining table for a while, and the saying "eating is like fighting" was vividly reflected.
Nami held her forehead helplessly, and the flame rising in her hand seemed to warn these guys not to spit saliva on her side.
Silently moved his position a little closer to Quinn. As the only being with immunity, the other person seemed to be watching with great interest.
Quinn was indeed very interested in this scene. He was watching a few teenagers playing with interest, with a faint smile on his lips.
When the picture appears and becomes reality, the unreal feeling gradually fades away, followed by the joy of personal experience.
He enjoyed this noisy atmosphere, to be precise, it was limited to people he knew well.
In his opinion, a group of people gathering together is nothing more than eating, drinking and having fun. Unless there is serious business, no one wants to see sad faces.
