Harsh because you can take it, Zala!

Tenshi left Haku in charge of the Cafe before flying off into Alabasta, searching around the island. Hopefully these Baroque Works guys were dumb and stayed on Alabasta…

After searching all over Alabasta, he found a building in the desert!

His lips twitched as he touched down, looking at the sign 'Spider's Cafe'...

How stupid were these guys… Forget about staying on Alabasta for a moment… they set up a Cafe…

In the middle of the desert.

Nowhere near civilization!

This had to be a joke!

This simply would not do!

Tenshi frowned as he walked inside.

He was greeted by a smiling woman with blonde hair, "Welcome to Spider's Cafe!" Tenshi waved "Where's Zala?" all the funny guys from Baroque Works froze and frowned at him, Tenshi rolled his eyes and looked at the blue haired woman, who said "What do you want."

Tenshi walked over and sat down at the counter, "You guys are all idiots, do you know that?" Zala frowned at him and Tenshi got angry, "You set up a cafe in the desert!? How will you get clients? Are you braindead? This will lose me money!"

He snorted from his nose, very serious.

Ever since he got the Subordinate Token, he treated Spider's Cafe as his own thing. How could this be allowed to continue like this? Forget about Alabasta! Move to somewhere else!

Tenshi looked at these funny guys with an expression of 'I'm very angry and disappointed with all of you!' Zala was dumbfounded, "Who-" Tenshi waved and cut her off, "Anyway, things need to change. Pack up and come with me, I can't believe you are all still on Alabasta. How can you get a decent customer base in the middle of the desert? Not to mention in a place where everyone hates you?"

Tenshi sighed and walked out, waving "Hurry up!"

Zala was just confused now, Gem (Mr. 5) coughed and slid a bounty to her. Zala looked at it and started sweating intensely.

You're joking…

She swallowed "Alright… everyone pack up." Mikita (Ms Valentine), Marianne (Ms Goldenweek), and Drophy (Ms Merry Christmas) looked at the bounty and shivered in fear.

Babe (Mr 4) said "Woooooooooooooooooow…" while Lassoo barked in confusion.

Zala frowned and looked at Spider's Cafe sadly before sighing as they met Tenshi outside.

Zala asked softly "Where to, boss…" Tenshi clapped his hands and said "Well, first, we're going to Alubarna to meet Cobra and Vivi. Then you'll be coming on my ship and I'll bring you somewhere else for you to continue your cafe business." He shook his head and continued "This simply won't do. You guys just sit here all day burning money, I can't stand it. Not to mention, your coffee is probably a disgrace. To even call this a cafe is making my bones rattle with anger and disgust. I'd rather die on the spot than stand in that cafe for another minute."

He sighed, "Sheesh! Where do you get off thinking that you can call that sludge coffee and this outhouse a cafe? It's ridiculous! First of all, you all need reformation and strict employee training. Look at Gem, he's wearing a firefighter outfit for christ's sake!"

He looked at Zala with disappointment "How can you run a cafe like this? Forget it, follow me and you'll find the true meaning of coffee. Alright, let's go." as he wrapped them all up in coffee bubbles, flying into the sky.

Mikita was shocked, "What the hell!?" Tenshi smiled gently, a little less harsh on her since she wasn't Zala, "Mikita-chan, the way you use your fruit is pathetic. You need strict training. Well, you'll get it."

Then he turned to Zala and said with disappointment, "They aren't even wearing aprons, really! Are you trying to ruin my reputation?!" Zala wanted to cry, I didn't even know I was working for you! What do you mean?!

Marianne swiped her finger on the coffee bubble, muttering "Coffee?" before putting her finger in her mouth. Her eyes widened and Tenshi turned to her with a baffled look, "Are you a baby? You put random things in your mouth???"

Marianne shouted "Woah! So tasty!" she leaned over and sucked up the coffee with a happy expression. Tenshi was dumbfounded and turned to the front, leave the children alone…

Zala tasted the coffee and was shocked, this destroyed her coffee… Tenshi snorted "Please don't drink this coffee… This is basically my body, technically. Not to mention, substandard. A vile replica of coffee, just actual trash. I'll have you taste real coffee very soon."

He turned to Zala and said seriously "At that time, you'll understand what true coffee is. If you dare serve sewage water again, I will tear your arms off!" Zala replied speechlessly, "I didn't mean to!" Tenshi snorted, "You should've known!" Zala retorted "How?!" Tenshi turned back, "You should've! That's all there is to say! The more I look at you, the more disappointed I get! Clearly a good looking woman. Yet you serve sewage to poor innocent customers and smile as though you gave them something good! I don't understand how you didn't die from shame."

Zala wanted to cry, Drophy complained "Hey, buster! You better apologize!" Tenshi snorted, "Hmph! For what? Expecting excellence from my employees?! I will not!" then he turned to Gem, adding "If you pick your nose one more time, I will drop you into the sea!"

Gem froze and Tenshi almost vomited, "You disgust me, honest." he shivered from head to toe, "Clearly you have a good devil fruit but you flick boogers… Ugh! I'm gonna puke!" he even covered his mouth and retched, stopping his flight.

He turned away and flapped his wings, exploding off behind a sand dune, vomiting on the sand before coming back, swaying in the sky.

They were speechless, Tenshi wiped his lips, feeling sick, "I swear to god, if I see a single disgusting act from you, I will throw you into space." he held his stomach and continued flying.

Gem was speechless, that was an intense reaction… he was a bit offended.

But this guy had a billion bounty, so he was very scared and didn't say anything.

Zala asked "Um… Are you alright?" Tenshi waved, "I have a cleanliness disorder… don't touch me." before adding "Not to mention, you can blow yourself up without damage… Why are you not a close combat specialist…"

He sighed and forgot about it, that guy was dumb… And disgusting!

They flew all the way to Alubarna and Tenshi hovered in the air above the city. He looked around before raising his brows.

He came to the ship and saw Vivi chatting with Conis about Luffy and the rest. Tenshi landed by them, Vivi looked over before freezing as she saw the Baroque Works group.

She was angry in an instant!

Tenshi blocked her, smiling gently, "Princess… Please calm down." Vivi snorted "And who are you?" Tenshi smiled softly, "Luffy's friend." Vivi blinked, from angry to happy in an instant, "Really?!" Tenshi nodded and explained "These funny guys… I brought them here to apologize for one. And two, I'm taking them with me."

Vivi frowned, "Why?" Tenshi nodded with a smile and closed eyes, "You see, Zala owns a Cafe. But her technique and coffee is such a disgrace, I couldn't ignore her existence anymore. Every night she serves customers sewage, is a night I don't get sleep. I'm going to train her before relocating her cafe away from Alabasta to somewhere else."

His smile was gentle, but his words were poisonous, "You don't understand this feeling, just being around her is making me sick with disgust. If I have to hear about her coffee being sold to even one more person, I'd rather die. It's a disgrace to my pride as a Barista and a Cafe Owner. To even call her outhouse a Cafe is simply a huge joke. If it continues, I might develop a sickness and die on the spot."

Vivi's lips twitched and Zala was going to tear up, "You don't have to be so mean!" Tenshi retorted, "But I do! You'll never learn if nobody criticizes you! Hurry up and apologize to Vivi."

The group looked down and mumbled an apology. Vivi stood there, stunned. Tenshi turned his head and they said loudly "We're very sorry, Princess Vivi!"

Tenshi nodded, smiling gently "Much better. If you want to run a cafe, you have to serve even the poorest customer with a smile. Everyone has to be treated equally and kindly, otherwise you will alienate them." Vivi looked at Tenshi before smiling, "Can I try a coffee?"

Tenshi smiled gently, "Sure. 800 Beli." Vivi smiled, "No problem!" Tenshi walked into the Cafe saying "Zala, follow me. The rest of you will be with Karin, she will show you the ropes of serving with a smile." Karin walked out and looked at the group before sighing angrily, "Come on! Hurry up!"

They were speechless, this was serving with a smile…?
