Chapter 45 - 45 - The Island Of Gourmet!
Chapter 45 - 45 - The Island Of Gourmet!
After nearly half a month's journey, Will and his crew had experienced hail the size of a basketball, green acid rain that could completely corrode clothing, and a giant sea king that suddenly jumped out of the sea and tried to swallow their entire ship whole....
After overcoming all kinds of hardships, Will and his crew finally arrived at their first destination, after having a clear understanding of the unpredictable weather and currents of the great voyage they finally arrived on their first Island on the Grand Line!
It's a Trident shape Island with the title of Gourmet Country!
"It seems that this record pointer from the man with glasses is not pointing to the same route that Luffy took."
After disembarking from the ship, Will looked around with great interest!
Navy, pirates, commoners, rich merchants, aristocrats.... .
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to believe that all these people got together and didn't fight!
Will even saw two giants sitting on the floor sparring over wine!
What's going on here?
And while Will, Nami and Koby were staring with awe at their surroundings for a while, apparently quite a few people also noticed them.
Especially the girls who were still single, blushing as they looked at Will.
Much to the dismay of the many brawny men around who thought they were strong but lost in terms of face!
They all cursed in their own minds, "Damn white boy!"
"Yo~ so many girls are staring at you, captain~!" Nami deliberately stretched her voice to poke fun at Will.
"Oh, where is it!"
Will immediately gave a dry laugh, then hurriedly continued, "Alright, hurry up and go, there's still a lot of work to be done!"
The excited Koby immediately followed!
Numerous ships were parked in the harbor here, even warships could be seen.
While stopping the ships to pay the management fee, Will had already found out some information.
It turned out that this was the territory belonging to one of the Four Emperor "Redhead" Shank.
Strictly speaking, the redhead doesn't have a fixed territory, but there really are quite a few islands that use his name for protection!
One of them is the Trident Island, which hosts the world's most renowned chefs in a culinary competition!
The pirates who come and go here are usually newcomers to the Grand Line, or losers who have been eliminated and lost everything after entering the Grandline.
The name of one of the Four Emperor Redhead plays a role here!
No pirate dares to take the piss here!
And because it is home to some of the most famous chefs in the world, it attracts many wealthy merchants and aristocrats who come here to enjoy the food.
Even the navy stationed in the neighborhood frequented the place!
The navy on this side of the island has never done anything on this island because of the large number of powerful people that would be affected if there were a war here.
As for what would happen after going to sea, it is hard to say.
It is because of this 'tacit understanding' that this island has been extraordinarily prosperous!
After paying enough management fees for their Ship, naturally they had someone to take care of it, so there wouldn't be any problems.
After casually finding a nymphomaniac woman to ask about this information, Will led a dashing departure, leaving behind only a red-faced 'looking husband stone' in place.
So there is still an advantage to being handsome no matter where you go!
It's a pity that the handsome degree doesn't make you an artist star, because it's obvious that you can rely on your face for a living but you have to be strong for their respect and fear.
"It smells good~"
Nami took a deep breath!
Walking down the street there is a drool-inducing aroma everywhere!
If a choice-phobic were to come here, they would probably blow themselves up and die immediately!
"Which one do we eat first?" Nami asked.
And Will was also aroused by this charming mixture of fragrances.
"That one, let's go!"
"Oh yeah!"
Koby and Nami jumped up and down with excitement, knowing that in order to force Will to spill his hidden money, Nami wouldn't allow him to take a penny of the ship's money before dismounting from the ship!
In other words, Will will pay for everything on this island himself!
It's a good thing that the man with the glasses was quite rich, and the amount of treasure Will secretly hid wasn't at all what Nami had imagined!
Since it's like a drop in the lake even if he brought all the food here!
With the connivance of Will, a legend about a big appetite king suddenly appeared on this street...
"Mmm... Yummy!"
"Nami you try this, it's so tender you can swallow your tongue!"
"Boss! Here's another ten pieces of tender duck tongue with shallots!"
"All right!"
...
The Second... The fth ... The tenth...!
Since coming to this world and becoming stronger and stronger, Will has long since said goodbye to being an ordinary person!
In the world of pirates, those who can eat are not necessarily strong, but the stronger they are, the more food they eat.
Otherwise it wouldn't be able to support that strong body!
And Will's honey badger fruit is also known as an unwavering animal on Earth, so under this influence, what started as a 'competition' of three people eventually evolved into a one-man show for Will!
Nami and Koby, a woman and a child, are no match for him!
As they walked into the 11th restaurant, Nami and Koby held on to the wall, holding back the feeling of vomiting, and blurted out, "No…No more! I can't eat anymore!"
"Me... Me too! You're going to throw up if you don't stop eating!"
Will sniffed and touched his stomach, feeling that he could actually eat more, but these two 'invalids'...
"You guys are embarrassing me, we agreed to eat the whole street!"
"And we're still less than a third of the way there, and there's no telling how many top-notch dishes await us back there!"
Although he said that, looking at Nami and Koby's posture of needing to hold on to the wall to move their body, Will had no choice but to stop thinking about it.
The first attrition of the faceless pirate group couldn't be due to being propped up!
That's a little too funny!
However, just as Will was about to take them back, a man suddenly walked out of the store where the three of them just finished eating.
"Excuse me for disturbing you, customer!"
"There are two four-star chefs about to compete in a Trident Duel, can I ask the three of you to be the judges?"
"Of course, it will not be without compensation for the three of you, as I will give each of you a meal voucher worth 100,000 berries as compensation."
"Cooking Duel?"
Hearing it, Will's eyes lit up, interesting!
He was wondering if the 'eclipse' of this island of food and the eclipse in that 'Spirit of the Aphrodisiac' he'd seen were the same thing, and he caught such a good show!
And it's a four-star chef!
This has to be agreed!
