Mihawk left.
He left in his boat.
Watching him leave, Luffy couldn't help but wonder.
Maybe this guy will go crazy and hide his black sword in a corner where no one can see it.
Otherwise, at this speed, he will starve to death before he sees an island.
'This place is not suitable for someone with your skills...'
Luffy remembered what Mihawk had said.
Luffy admitted that he was really holding back.
After all, Nami and the others were nearby, and if he made a little bigger move, Baratie would turn around.
Mihawk also realized this, so he wasn't interested in continuing to fight with someone who wasn't serious.
Thinking about this, Luffy returned to the restaurant.
Leaving a perfect arc trajectory in the air, in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Zoro.
"Luffy."
"Aniki!"
"Mr. Luffy."
Everyone shouted his name.
Luffy activated the Sun Fruit's power.
The sunlight shone on him, forming a faint halo on his body.
In an instant, his strength was restored.
"You're not dead, are you? Here you are."
Luffy placed the Wado Ichimonji next to Zoro and sat cross-legged, smiling. "How do you feel?"
"Sorry..."
Zoro had recovered somewhat, but his face was still pale as paper.
He lost.
He lost miserably.
"I won't lose again!"
[System prompt: The crew member: Zoro has awakened an indomitable spirit]
[Reward: 1000 Adventure Coins]
The system's sudden warning startled Luffy.
1000?!
It was the first time he had seen a four-digit reward.
Is this the reward for crew member training?
Is this the correct way to get adventure coins?
"Good, very witty. After realizing your own weakness, you will still rise up to climb the peak. This is the quality a strong person should have!"
As captain, Luffy encouraged him and took out a fruit from his pocket.
"Eat."
Zoro didn't hesitate in the slightest. He didn't know what it was, but as Luffy handed it to him, he ate it.
He reached out and picked up the Healing Fruit, and took a bite.
The moment he swallowed it, the blood in his chest quickly dried up, the wounds healed, the pain disappeared, and his strength was restored.
Everything seemed to have returned to the way it was before he challenged Mihawk.
"What is that...?"
Everyone except Nami looked at the scene in amazement.
Sanji couldn't help but open Zoro's clothes, looking at his chest...
"Gone... The wounds are gone! What the hell did you give him to eat?"
After a moment of stunned silence, Sanji couldn't help but ask.
"Healing Fruit."
Luffy had already prepared his explanation. "It's a product made to imitate Devil Fruits."
Devil fruits are legend in the East Blue.
Zoro felt a lightness in his body and couldn't help but smile. He quickly slapped Sanji's hand away and said with a disgusted expression on his face.
"Take your hand off me, this is disgusting. Know that I don't play for this team"
"What did you say? You green seaweed head!"
"You pervert, I thought you liked women, but it seems I misjudged!"
Sanji's eyes lit up as he pressed his forehead against Zoro's, saying fiercely:
"I won't lose again!? Nonsense! You have no future, I'll send you to hell myself now!"
Luffy laughed.
A person's personality determines the way they interact with others, even if they have just met, it still ends up being that way.
"Here."
Nami walked over and returned the straw hat, scolding, "You really scared us now."
"Don't worry, I'm strong. There aren't many people in the world who can beat me."
Luffy laughed and stood up, ruffling Nami's hair. "Come on, I'm hungry. Oh, Zeff, could you please bring another table of food?"
With everyone returning to the restaurant, Luffy suddenly remembered something and turned around:
"Oh, Zoro, the healing fruit I gave you earlier is worth 1 billion berries. You owe me 1 billion now, so work hard and pay me back."
"1...1 billion!? Are you a demon?"
Zoro didn't even have time to argue with Sanji, holding his own neck. "Can I still spit now?"
"Hahahaha."
The air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
----
Restaurant.
Zeff prepared another table of food.
Although Nami and Nojiko's cooking skills weren't bad, there was still a gap compared to professional chefs.
Everyone really enjoyed this meal.
Outside the door, Zoro entered with two pirates:
"Luffy, these two pirates must be worth something. I just caught them from the sea."
He threw people to the ground.
One of them was the unconscious Krieg.
As for the other...
Johnny immediately said, "It's Gin, a member of Krieg's pirate crew. I remember his bounty is 12 million. Zoro, did you defeat him?"
"When I fished him out, he was already half dead. He was probably caught in the previous battle, right?" Zoro shook his head.
"You're quite capable, Zoro. The two pirates total 29 million. You still owe me 971 million berries. Keep working hard." Nami said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Zoro's face turned black. "You guys, enjoying the good food here while I'm working alone outside!"
"Hahaha, it's because you owe Luffy money. I feel sorry for you." Usopp had a face begging to be punched, exultant.
At that moment, Zeff came out of the kitchen and brought a dessert.
Of course, this time there was no gender discrimination, everyone got a share.
Sanji reluctantly placed the dessert he carefully prepared in front of Usopp and the others.
"Take it with gratitude, there won't be such a good opportunity next time."
Boom!
Zeff swung his hat and gave Sanji a hard whack on the head.
"You can't treat your benefactor like that, Sanji."
"You old man!"
Sanji scratched his head and sighed, "I'm sorry about what happened earlier."
"Excuses are useless now, Sanji. My restaurant doesn't accept chefs like you, so get out of here!"
Zeff ruthlessly kicked out Sanji.
Sanji shook all over. "You want to kick me out? Are you kidding me old man?"
Ignoring him, Zeff turned to Luffy and smiled.
"Your ship is without a chef, right? Can you take this idiot away?"
Upon hearing this, Luffy couldn't help but laugh.
"Sure, thanks, boss."
