{Little Segment} {Hololive Chapter 7}
"Gomu Gomu no Pistol!"
"Three Sword Style: Oni Giri!"
"Black Leg Style: Collier!"
[ZEROTH BREAK]
The white-haired man swung his bladeless scythe; smacking the fist away, disarming the swords and halting the kick.
The trio were shocked by the sudden break in their attacks and the man took the chance to bonk each head.
BONK BONK BONK
The trio held their head as they fell back from the quick smacking, holding their head to ease the big lump on the top.
The man sat back down on a nearby chair, pulling out a Salmon Don from [INVENTORY] and slowly savoured the flavour. The rest of the crew were relaxing as they watched the Chief sweep the floor with the Monster Trio.
"How do you hit harder than Grandpa?!" (Luffy)
"You should've aimed for his legs, stupid cook!" (Zoro)
"So I let you have the finishing blow?! Not on my watch, Marimo!" (Sanji)
"You guys need to coordinate better and cover each other while attacking. It's hard to see the effects when you are just attacking one person but in a full-on fight against another crew, it will get chaotic." (Chief)
"Then I'll just smack the whole crew with Gear 3!" (Luffy)
"I'll chop them all up!" (Zoro)
"I'll kick all their asses!" (Sanji)
DONK DONK DONK
Their heads are smashed into the wooden floor, Nami holding her Fiery Fist of Love and pretty pissed off at the attitudes of the trio.
"When will they ever learn?" (Nami)
Chief finished munching his current sashimi piece and advised.
"Can't be helped, Miss Navigator. Captain has been like this ever since so I just got to brute force it." (Chief)
"But they just-"
Chief shoved a piece of sashimi into Nami's mouth to pause her talk
"Don't worry, despite how it looks, they learn a lot from this training. Just trust them, Miss Navigator" (Chief)
He sat back down and continued to eat the bowl, passing some of the sweeter pieces to Chopper. Usopp joined in the meal as well, eating a share plate of grilled salmon with various sauces.
Nami still looked at him, staring at him with slight frustration before going off to do her own thing. She was still frowning, thinking hard about the peculiar way of Chief's attitude to each of the crew members.
Chief only called them based on their positions in the crew.
She and the others were also concerned about his attitude being quite distant but Luffy assured them that it was fine as he was the first person Luffy tried to recruit. Even on some occasions, Chief accidentally called him 'Luffy' before quickly switching to 'Captain'. Luffy loved making fun of those mistakes and Chief silently goes along with the jokes.
She wondered.
What was the Straw Hat Crew to Chief?
