Chapter 31: 031 Nami Strikes! Spike The East Blue Overlord
[Recruiting crew members, qualifications ordinary, reward 5 adventure coins]
Sitting cross-legged on the figurehead of the Sunny, Luffy looked at the evaluation given by the system and was not surprised.
He also took a look at his panel.
Nothing else had changed, the only difference was "Lifespan" and "Haki".
Lifespan: 17/72 (originally 70)
Haki: Observation lv1, Armament lv1, Conqueror's lv2
The level here means that eating a Haki fruit gives you level 1, and two fruits give you level 2.
Of course, you can also train and improve your level.
"Probably when it reaches level 5, it will reach the advanced stage of Haki," Luffy thought.
Level 5 Observation, future sight.
Level 5 Armament, emission.
Level 5 Conqueror's, domination.
"As long as I eat 11 more, I'll have enough adventure coins, 2200," Luffy said.
The current adventure coins... 135.
He needed to find a way to earn more adventure coins. Currently, recruiting high-quality crew members should be the fastest way.
Thinking carefully, how many crew members did he have now?
The Sunny, 4 people.
The Merry, 4 people.
Too few.
In the East Blue, were there any suitable targets?
Luffy fell into deep thought.
Just as he was thinking, the Merry slowly caught up from the left side.
Usopp, Johnny, and Joseph were holding fishing rods.
"Hey, Usopp. What are you guys fishing for?" Luffy jumped down from the figurehead and walked to the edge of the ship to greet them. "Where's Zoro?"
Joseph Kaido replied, "Luffy, Zoro is training up there."
"Hey, Luffy, do you smell something delicious?" Usopp sniffed his nose.
"It must be nami cooking," Luffy turned his head to look.
"Sly! Too sly! How can you enjoy it alone? I want to eat too!"
"You can cook it yourself. Is the ingredients all used up? There are still plenty on the Sunny, I'll give you some."
Johnny said listlessly, "Usopp only knows how to cook a few dishes, and we're tired of them."
"Hey! I'm not a professional chef."
Usopp pretended to be on the verge of death, "Luffy, I have a disease that will kill me if I don't eat food cooked by Nami Please ask her to cook more!"
Luffy made an OK gesture with his pen.
Joseph suddenly remembered something and became excited, "Speaking of chefs, I know a really talented chef! Luffy, why don't we recruit one?"
"Baratie?" Luffy immediately thought of someone.
His good buddy with the green seaweed hair, the perverted kappa Sanji.
"Yes, yes, the Baratie floating restaurant!" Joseph nodded repeatedly. "Luffy, have you heard of it? It's a famous restaurant in the East Blue, and it's even located on the sea."
"Then let's go take a look. I'll ask Nami how to get there."
Luffy nodded.
...
Baratie.
This floating restaurant located in the Sea in the East Blue is the most famous restaurant in the East Blue, known for its culinary skills.
Its appearance is that of a giant ship with fish-shaped figureheads on both ends. When threatened, the entire ship can transform into a battle mode.
The chefs in the restaurant are also formidable characters, rumored to have once been pirates. The owner and head chef of the restaurant is even a pirate captain.
Of course, this is just a rumor and has not been confirmed.
Two days later.
The Sunny and the Merry finally arrived at their destination.
"That's the floating restaurant!"
Joseph pointed to a large ship in the distance.
On the deck of the Sunny, Nami raised her hand and looked into the distance. "That's... a pirate ship."
Upon hearing this, Usopp picked up his binoculars to observe.
A ship larger than the restaurant was docked near the Baratie.
"Did they encounter a maritime disaster? That ship looks shabby."
"It's... it's the flag of the East Blue Overlord!"
Johnny swallowed nervously.
"The East Blue Overlord? The Krieg Pirates! They are the most powerful pirate group in the East Blue! Admiral Krieg has a bounty of 17 million berries! That three-decked giant sailboat is his flagship, the Dreadnought Sabre!"
Johnny realized what he had just said.
17 million? Just 17 million, what is there to be afraid of? Arlong, who had 20 million, ended up becoming a dead fish, didn't he?
He is now a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, with Zoro as the captain and Luffy as the captain!
Thinking of this, he suddenly became more confident:
"But, speaking of which, why did Krieg's ship become so dilapidated?"
Because they were being chased by Hawkeye.
Luffy wanted to laugh. This unlucky group finally made it to the Grand Line, only to encounter one of the Shichibukai, Hawkeye.
However, they were a few days late.
According to the original story, Luffy's route was to go to the restaurant first before going to Nami's hometown.
But he did the opposite, first dealing with Arlong's group before going back to Baratie, and ended up meeting them.
"Let's go, let's go to the restaurant first."
The group quickly headed towards Baratie.
After getting off the ship, they saw that the door of the restaurant was open, and there were hardly any customers on the first floor of the restaurant, except for one person standing at the entrance.
"What a terrible restaurant! They actually made me eat such a terrible dessert! I've decided, I, Krieg, will take over this ship, and I will challenge the Grand Line again! You... you stinking chefs, if you don't want to die, submit to me!"
Wearing a golden armor, a man roared loudly, and it was Admiral Krieg.
With a loud roar, two cannons emerged from under the shoulder of the golden armor, aiming at the chefs in the restaurant.
"Now, prepare 100 servings of food for me, my men are still hungry... understand!?"
The chefs were momentarily speechless, seemingly intimidated by his aura.
At this moment, they heard the sound of footsteps behind them.
Krieg frowned, but before he could turn around, a hand was already pressed against the back of his head.
"Get out of the way."
Boom!!
Krieg suddenly lost his balance, and his head was forcefully pressed into the ground with a heavy force.
His face was embedded into the floor.
The chefs watched this scene in shock.
A group of five men and three women entered from outside.
The one leading them wore a straw hat, and it was this person who subdued Krieg with a single move!
"Who are you people?"
Sanji, lying on the ground, exclaimed in astonishment.
Luffy retracted his hand and walked towards the dining table.
"Be careful!" Sanji suddenly changed his expression and hurriedly reminded.
Behind Luffy, Krieg, with a grim face, climbed up from the ground.
"Who are you brats, how dare you...!?"
Before he could vent his anger, a blade was already pressed against his neck.
Zoro stared at him with a slanted eye and said indifferently, "If you don't want to die, you better leave now. What was it, Krieg?"
After speaking, he couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the other party and sat down at the dining table with Luffy.
Nami supported Kaya and whispered, "Be careful, your health is not good."
"Thank you, Nami."
The group of people walked past Krieg one after another, completely ignoring his existence.
For a moment, only the footsteps of Luffy and his group could be heard.
Seeing this scene, the chefs swallowed nervously, sensing something bad.
Krieg trembled all over, not out of fear, but out of anger.
His face turned red, veins popping on his forehead, clearly on the verge of going berserk.
"Die! You damn brat!"
Krieg spread his arms to the sides, aiming the cannons on his shoulders at Luffy's table, and shouted as he pulled the trigger.
"Ha..."
Nami sighed, and her figure moved.
Almost instantly, she appeared in front of Krieg, her slender leg sweeping across.
"Luffy said you're in the way, don't you understand? I hate pirates the most!"
Tempest Kick!
A lightning-fast kicking technique turned the air into a silver slash.
The golden armor protecting Krieg's body shattered under this attack, his chest torn apart by the slash. Blood splattered, and his whole body was sent flying out of the restaurant.
Boom!!
His body crossed tens or hundreds of meters and crashed into his own pirate ship.
Silence!
Now, it was completely silent.
