Banquet and Chef

Not long after Luce placed all the dishes on the table, Locke arrived at the dining room. Then, Aceday, Sasaki, Barbossa, Enel, and Barrett came to the dining room. 

When they saw the table full of delicious food, they immediately swallowed their saliva.

"Gulp."

"I didn't see it wrong, right? Is that our lunch today?"

"Enel, quick, give yourself a slap to see if it hurts!"

"Bastard! Why didn't you slap yourself!" Enel retorted unhappily. Then, he also drooled as he looked at the delicacies on the table.

"Hahaha! I didn't expect you to be so capable, woman!" Barett laughed as he walked towards Locke, who was sitting at the table, and praised Luce.

Luce glanced at Barett. That tall and sturdy body that faintly emitted the aura of a ferocious beast did not make her feel any discomfort.

"Hmph! Isn't this a matter of course? To capture Locke's heart, I have gone all out!" Luce raised her head very proudly and stuck out her chest.

As she stuck out her chest, the stump of her chest shook violently, causing Sasaki Barbossa and company to stare straight at her, and more saliva flowed out of their mouths.

"Alright, since you're all here, let's eat. Don't stand there anymore." Locke looked at Iry and the others speechlessly. Hearing Locke's words, the few finally reacted, quickly pulled out their chairs, and sat down.

Luce kicked away Aine, who wanted to sit next to Locke. Then, she swaggered down and ignored Aine's fierce gaze. She looked at him provocatively and then stared at Locke with a face full of infatuation.

Everyone paid no attention to Luce's actions because all of their attention was attracted by the delicious food in front of them. They continuously picked up the dishes they wanted from various plates.

"Woo, woo, it's too delicious! It's the first time I've eaten such delicious food since I was young." Sagaki's mouth was full of food, and his hands continued to grab the food in his bowl, and he was moved to tears.

"Damn it! Swallow the food and talk! You bastard!" Iry roared at Sasaki who was spitting out the food residue, and then he brought a plate of food to himself.

"Ah ---It's delicious! Gulu!" Versa grabbed a plate of vegetables and poured them all into his mouth. "Hmph! Versa, that's the dish I like!" Ember snorted at Versa in dissatisfaction. 

Then, he took the other plate he liked, directly took it to his side, and began eating it. Seeing his companions eat happily, Locke was also delighted. Not only did he finally not have to eat the greasy barbecue, but he also finally met a favourite chef.

Locke slowly but quickly ate the food in front of him. "By the way, Luce, do you want to join my pirate group and become my partner?" Locke ate the food, then suddenly said to Luce, who was holding her chin with both hands and staring at him like a love-struck fool.

"Ah? Marry you? Although it's a little fast, I'm willing!"

Rose seemed to have heard wrong. Locke looked at Rose with black lines all over his face, and then he looked at Rose.

"I am the captain of the Locke Pirates, and we are the Locke Pirates. Our ship just happens to lack a chef like you. Luce, will you come to my ship and be my partner?" This time, Luce heard Locke's words clearly and carefully looked at Locke.

"Oh" Finally, Luce discovered something, He suddenly stood up and pointed at Locke. "You, you, you, you are my super male god, the big pirate who was offered eight hundred and eighty-eight hundred and eighty-eight million Bailey, the big pirate who destroyed Seven Water Capital! Locke!"

"Huh?"

"Eight hundred and eighty-eight hundred and eighty-eight hundred and eighty-eight hundred and eighty-eight hundred and eighty-eight hundred and eighty-five thousand Bailey"

"What's going on? Boss Locke, your bounty isn't more than 200 million?"

"Moreover, there must be a navy to destroy the Seven Water Capital!" Looking at the noisy crowd, Luce finally seriously sized up everyone. If you didn't look, you wouldn't know. When you look, you will be shocked.

Unknowingly, I came to a villain's pirate group, and the other party's boss, my Prince Charming, invited me to join his pirate group! What to do? I'm so excited! Rose cheered in her heart.

"Uh-huh! Since Locke, you invited me so sincerely, then I, as the cook, will reluctantly agree!" Rose proudly stuck out her chest and accepted Locke's invitation. After getting a satisfactory answer, Locke chuckled.

"Well, welcome to join us, Luce. Also, brothers, let's open a banquet! To celebrate the cook Luce and Barbossa joining our pirate group and becoming partners! Let's have a good and lively party!" Locke said.

After Locke said this, almost everyone looked at Locke in surprise. Feeling everyone's surprised gazes, Locke regained his calm.

"What's wrong?"

"No, no, no, it's nothing. I just didn't expect Boss Locke to say such passionate words."

"Hahahaha! Alright, don't make it hard for Locke. Let's hold a banquet and bring out all the rum!" Barett roared excitedly, diverting everyone's attention away.

"That's right, he is reading a book to open a banquet!"

When Locke Pirates welcomed their new companions to hold a banquet, every corner of the world was discussing something about the island.

"This kid called Locke is really scary! He dared to attack the island."

"Idiot, you are wrong about the point! That guy was able to escape unscathed from the encirclement of the Marines led by the Warring States Great General. This is the most frightening thing!"

"Murru, he is a handsome young man. At such a young age, he has such an exaggerated bounty. It makes me excited."

"Hahaha! This little brat made such a big noise again, meow! All the limelight in this period has been snatched away by him meow!"

"Gulp, gulp, burp! Phew, this little brat called Locke likes to toss about. However, if we kill this little brat, his head should be able to buy a lot of good wine!" 

West Sea, in an unknown tiny village, an extremely tall man, who was at least nine meters tall, was tall and slender. 

He was dressed in a decent suit with two small antennas on his head. His skin was pale, and his mouth was full of sharp fangs. A man with a demon-like face was sitting on a vast stone, reading the latest newspaper.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, Locke Pirates? This kid is powerful! And his companions are also good! If we meet him, we must fight with them!"

"Hey! Boss Moria, the Pengke family has surrendered!"

"Hey, hey, hey, hey! Very good! In this way, a quarter of the mafia in the west blue will be suppressed by us! Little ones! Let's hold a banquet and celebrate today!"

"Oh! Long live boss Moria!"
