Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 914 Sad duel, Luffy vs Sanji
The king coconut tree finally came to the large expanse of grassland on the edge of the Forest of Temptation. In the distance of the grassland, there was a small road leading to Cake Castle, and the traveling team of the Vinsmoke family was on it.

"Hey~~Sanji~~~~~~~~~~", Lu Fei excitedly jumped down from the big king coconut tree, raised his hands and rushed towards the catwoman car in the distance excitedly, "Long time no see~~~ ~~~~~~"

"!!!!!!", Sanji, who heard the familiar voice, couldn't believe it, and looked at the straw hat captain who was running towards him with a complicated expression.

Seeing Luffy's appearance, Yongzhi couldn't help being shocked, "Alas?? That bastard was able to cross the boundary of the domain and come here???"

When the guards saw the strange tree running towards them, they also shouted in surprise, "What's the matter with the tree behind him?? It's actually running??"

"..." Anke sat on the tree trunk, smiling but silently looking at the parked car in the distance.Although I have a little relationship with JERMA66, I still have to face it.

Nami, who was also staying above, didn't care so much, and waved her hands excitedly, "Sanji~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

"!!!!" Seeing the appearance of the beautiful navigator, the three princes in Catwoman's car, except for Sanji, all had countless hearts in an instant.

After recovering from the shock, Sanji, who was frowning tightly, still had an unimaginable expression on his face, "How...they came here..."

"That is, Straw Hat Boy Luffy." Qiang Zhi glanced at the rushing Luffy, and then looked back at the person sitting on the tree, "Then, that is JEWEL~"

"JEWEL??" Upon hearing this, Ichiji and Niji, who had never seen her before, looked outside curiously.After trying hard to withdraw their hearts towards the sexy and hot Nami, they noticed the girl with different eyes who had been sitting on the tree.

After seeing her appearance clearly, Ni Zhi said with a little disappointment, "What, she looks quite ordinary, and her figure is also average."

Yizhi was more stable, he just said lightly, "The only thing I can be sure of is that I can't see through her at all."

"It's been nearly ten years, and it's becoming more and more perfect." Qiang Zhi didn't care much about their conversation, but looked greedily at the girl in the distance, but his eyes didn't seem to be looking at a person, but more like Look at the same precious item.

"Touch!" At this moment, Luffy, who was rushing over, directly slammed into the catwoman's car, ignoring the violent shaking of the car, and excitedly said to Sanji inside, "We're here to pick you up. Sanji~~~~~~~~~~~"

"Wow!! Stop it! The catwoman car is about to overturn!!!" The guards hurriedly stabilized the catwoman car that was about to overturn, and pointed their guns at the catwoman hanging on the catwoman car. Luffy, "If you don't let go, we'll shoot!!!"

However, the over-excited Captain Straw Hat didn't notice the guns pointed at him, nor did he notice Sanji's face that couldn't be worse, and said happily to himself, "Although you left a letter saying that you promised to go back , but I’m not happy to wait~ Actually, I originally wanted to come here with Encore, but Nami, Chopper and Brook insisted on coming, so Zoro and the others are already in Wano Country~”

"..." Sanji listened to his words in silence the whole time, looking down at the small shackles on his hands solemnly, and the smiling faces of his former partners flashed through his mind quickly, but in a blink of an eye, he thought of holding the shackles in his hands. What is it, and when he remembered what chips those people were threatening him, his face turned cold instantly.

"Huh?", Luffy with a smile on his face looked suspiciously at him from slightly trembling to his firmness covered in cold sweat. Before he had time to ask him what his decision was, he saw him throw himself and the door together. Kicked directly.

Seeing this, Nami yelled in shock, "Hey! What are you doing Sanji!!"

"..." Anke, who was still sitting there, didn't make any movements, just squinted slightly and looked over there.

"Go back! You bunch of low-class pirates!!" Sanji changed his normal routine and looked at his former partners with indifference and disdain.

The Vinsmoke family was very happy to see his change, their faces were full of complacency and condescension.But on the contrary, it was full of shock and disbelief.

"My name is... Vinsmoke Sanji! I am the...prince of the Kingdom of JERMA!" After struggling to reveal his current identity, Sanji continued to speak with a haughty expression, "Sorry for keeping this from you guys. But if I want to say it, you will be miserable! After all, my identity is different from yours! The gap is so obvious! It’s like all the soldiers present are at my command! It’s back to your ship full of boring companions Tangle, stay here and marry that beautiful daughter of the Four Emperors BIGMOM, which one is happier? There is no need to compare!"

"!!!", Luffy and Nami stared at him blankly, the former was full of disbelief, while the latter bit his lower lip tightly and his eyes were moist.

"..." Anke remained silent, calmly and thoughtfully scanning the whole body of the blond cook.

Sensing her gaze, Sanji casually lowered his rolled-up sleeves to cover the pair of golden shackles, and put his hands in his pockets.

After narrowing his eyes thoughtfully, Anke didn't say anything, but just silently looked at Sanji with a gloomy expression.

Luffy slowly came back to his senses, and asked in disbelief, "Then that letter..."

"Do you still take that broken letter seriously?" Sanji said with disdain on his face, I will not go back!I really didn't expect you guys to come here after me, you've worked hard!Get out now!But by the way, what's your name..."

"Stop joking!!!" Luffy yelled and interrupted him, still with disbelief and shock on his face, "What nonsense are you talking about! I can't accept it!!"

"Hahahaha~~~", Yongzhi was very happy watching the play, and pointed to himself with a smile, "Well, I will help you drive people away~~"

"No one is allowed to shoot!" Sanji interrupted him in a deep voice, looking coldly at the people not far away, "Let me come and drive them back!!"

"What do you mean you want to drive us away?! Sanji!" Luffy shouted emotionally, it was impossible for his former partner to become so heartless.

"Go back!" Sanji growled, and said even more insincere words cruelly, "I don't know why you did this on a whim, you guys came here to pick me up and take it with me, it's rare and precious, but if If you really think about me. So go back! Other than that, there is no other meaning! I am happier to belong to the powerful and rich BIGMOM Pirates than to be with you who are poor and small!"

Sanji's hands in his trouser pockets were clenched into fists to resist the pain in his heart, but he still had a high face, and satirized with disdain and contempt, "Can you be the Pirate King? It’s a question mark! Is it human nature to bet on horses with a high chance of winning?!”

"Stop joking! Sanji!!" Nami yelled loudly, tears welling up in her eyes, "What are you talking about since the beginning!!"

Sanji just looked at them blankly, without a trace of regret on his gloomy face.

"!!!", Nami stared blankly at his resolute expression, but couldn't say a word.I was used to the blond cook's obedience to me, but now seeing his indifference and ruthlessness, I couldn't accept the reality at all.

"Then..." Under Sanji's constant taunts, Luffy calmed down a little bit, clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "It means...you've been lying to me..."

"Yeah, that's right! In fact, I really look down on you in my heart! It may be a bit difficult for you to realize this fact until now! I'll show you the actual situation!" As soon as the words fell, Sanji rushed Pulling up and rushing down, he kicked the unsuspecting Luffy far away.

Unprepared, Luffy rolled hard on the ground several times before stopping, reaching out to wipe the blood off his face.But as soon as he stood up, he was kicked away by Sanji again. The blond cook was merciless, but Luffy still had no intention of doing anything.

Seeing that he didn't fight back at all, Sanji growled angrily, "You fought back!!"

Luffy stood up, regardless of the blood on his face, clenched his fists and shouted, "I won't, I'll fight you!!"

After clenching his teeth and making up his mind, Sanji yelled "Then you disappear!!" and rushed up very quickly, kicking Luffy's body mercilessly with his right foot hardened by the domineering color of his weapon.

Standing up after being kicked hard again, Luffy just clenched his fists ignoring the pain and shouted excitedly, "I refuse!!!!"

Seeing the captain being kicked bloody by himself, Sanji also felt the severe pain of suffocation. What the captain said to himself when they met for the first time appeared in his mind uncontrollably:

…………

"Hey, cook~ Be my partner~~~"

…………

The sunshine that day was just right, and the smile on that day was bright, but now looking back, it was like a heavy stone was pressing on my heart, so heavy that I couldn't breathe but I couldn't tell others.

Biting his lower lip tightly, he didn't speak, and rushed forward again to attack Luffy who was already injured mercilessly, mercilessly everywhere, as if to prove that he didn't care about them.

Seeing the fight where one fought fiercely but the other didn't fight back at all, Nami's tears kept streaming down, and he yelled, "Stop it! Sanji!! We just want to pick you up! Luffy, he came to Here, I have been fighting with the enemy's cadre all night! His body has been..."

"Stop it! Nami! Don't interrupt! This is a duel!" Luffy shouted, and Sanji kicked him into the distance as soon as he finished speaking.

Sanji who stopped for a while panted heavily, clenched his fists and shouted in pain, "What kind of duel is this!! Disappear quickly, disappear from my sight!!"

Luffy, who didn't fight back, was beaten so badly that he lost a tooth, but he didn't pay attention to these trivial things at all, and shouted with strength, "I refuse!!"

"!!!", the captain's unwillingness to give up made Sanji's pupils shrink, but he didn't speak anymore, he rushed up and kicked Luffy, and the aggressive attacks with armed colors were everywhere.

Anke, who had been watching with clenched fists, suddenly stood up, pursed his lips but did not speak or move.

Nami couldn't stand it anymore, and she cried out to them to stop, "Enough! Sanji!! Stop it! Can't we go back now?!"

"We're not leaving!!!", Luffy yelled to refute Nami's words, even though he was beaten and scarred, he still didn't change his determination.

………………

"You are a good cook, so let's be pirates~~"

........................

Memories of the past kept coming to mind, but the only thing Sanji could do was to grit his teeth, raise his right foot that was full of flames and red-hot, and kicked towards him fiercely, "Small!! !"

Encore appeared between him and Luffy in an instant, and then stretched out his hands towards him.Sanji's eyes widened suddenly, the distance was so close that there were only a few centimeters left, so he couldn't take his feet back in time, so he could only yell anxiously, "Cute, let's go!!"

However, when he was about to kick up, it seemed as if he had hit an invisible barrier, and then his whole body was thrown out.After staggering a few steps on the ground, he stood firm and did not fall because of it, but looked at the unarmed girl standing there with shock and fear on his face.

"!!", the Vinsmoke family, who had been watching her from a distance, widened their eyes in surprise at what they saw just now.Immediately, Yizhi frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "A defensive wall made of domineering, I didn't expect her domineering to be so strong..."

Qiangzhi just looked at the girl with satisfaction, and said with a rare smug smile, "Everyone says she is a perfect JEWEL. She is even more flawless than when we first met."

Anke quietly looked at Sanji who was pursing his lips, and then said lightly, "The chef of the Straw Hat Pirates would never kick a woman. I can't let him break that motto."

"!!!", Sanji pursed his lips tightly, clenched his hands into fists to endure the pain, his body trembled slightly but he didn't say a word.

Encore casually looked at his hands, then looked at the Catwoman car in the distance, smiled and said softly, "That's enough, let's go. Vinsmoke, Sanji."

"..." Sanji looked at her in shock, and found that she just looked normal and didn't show any emotions.

"Let's go." Anke said lightly, his face unmoved.

"Encore! What are you talking about!! Take Sanji back now!!" Luffy shouted excitedly, trying to rush up but almost fell to the ground due to his injuries.

An Ke quickly reached out to support him, and persuaded in a low voice, "Luffy, give him some time to calm down first, we'll just wait here."

"but……",
"It's okay, Sanji will be fine, if something unexpected happens, we'll just go to the city and bring him back."

After Sanji clenched his fists and glanced at them, he turned and left without saying anything, his red cape fluttering, but with determination.

"Hey!! Sanji!!!", Nami's voice was a little hoarse because of being too excited, and she rushed forward and slapped him hard, so hard that his head was tilted to one side and his face was red and swollen up.

"Farewell!", Nami had tears in her eyes, but she was more angry and disappointed, "I'm sorry! We are meddling in our own business!"

"..." Sanji just pursed his lips, didn't say anything, just turned around and left without hesitating.

"Wow~~~", Yongzhi watched the drama very enthusiastically, and said with a little surprise, "This woman is so cruel, she slaps her face when she comes up~"

Qiang Zhi just looked over there, snorted coldly and said, "Finally cut off this useless fate~"

Yizhi looked at his father who was not moving, and asked slightly suspiciously, "Father, why don't you go and bring JEWEL back now?"

"No, wait for a while, there will be better opportunities later." Qiang Zhi leaned back on the comfortable seat confidently, and then asked, "Did you bring the bracelet for JEWEL? "

"Of course~", Nizhi smiled and took out a pair of fine handcuffs from his clothes. The finger-thick handcuffs were one meter long. Many densely packed symbols and words could be faintly seen on the silver-based chain, as well as various kinds of handcuffs embedded in it. scientific equipment.

"..." Reiju frowned slightly looking at the pair of exquisite handcuffs, and then looked out with a little worry.

"It's a pity that there is no way to put the sea floor stone in it. When I go to the cake city, I have to take a sea floor stone handcuff." Ni Zhi shook his head regretfully, and then put the handcuffs back into his clothes .

At this time, Sanji also returned to the Catwoman car, and after lowering his head and sitting back in his seat, he said in a low voice, "Let's drive..."

"Yes!" The person in charge of driving immediately flicked the reins on the big cat, and the chubby cat immediately "meowed" and then slowly pulled the noble royals towards the cake city.

"..." Sanji leaned his elbows on the window sill of the car, tightly covering his eyes with his right hand, and pursed his lips in silence.

Luffy stretched out his hand and gently pushed away Encore who was standing in front of him. After walking a few steps unsteadily, he yelled at the catwoman who was going away, "Stop!! Sanji!!!"

"!!!", upon hearing his voice, Sanji's body froze suddenly, and then trembled violently.

Luffy took a breath, didn't care to wipe off the blood on his face, and continued to shout, "What kind of inferior pirate! You are just forcing yourself to say things you don't want to say! Don't lie! You think Can this drive me away?? Are you kidding! No matter how hard you kick me, the one who hurts is you, right?!"

Sanji just bit his lower lip tightly to hold back the sobs, but even with his right hand tightly covering his eyes, tears still flowed down his face.

"..." Anke just looked at the Catwoman car in the distance, and then sighed in a low voice, "Wait a little longer, Sanji...you will understand when you discover your truth." .Sometimes, no matter how much others say, it can’t catch up with what I saw with my own eyes...'

Nami still hadn't recovered from the shock and betrayal just now, and shouted at the scarred captain, "Luffy! Why!! No matter what the reason, he treats you like this..."

"Don't be so wordy!!" Luffy yelled and interrupted her, still looking closely at the Catwoman car who didn't slow down.

Reiju in the car looked at the tearful Sanji, sighed in a low voice, and asked considerately, "Do you want to stop? Sanji?"

"Keep going..." After choking out three words in a choked voice, Sanji still tightly covered his tearful eyes.

Luffy took a deep breath and continued to shout, "Our journey is still going on! I'll be waiting here! If you don't come back, I'll starve to death here for you to see! You are the ship on my ship Sound, I will not eat food cooked by anyone other than you! Even if I am hungry, even if the sky rains swords! I will not move a step! I am waiting for you here!"

After being slightly out of breath, he stopped, took a breath and continued to shout out his determination, "You must come back! Sanji!! Without you, I would be the One Piece!!!!"

The Catwoman car was still approaching Cake City at the same speed, and kept moving away from them.Too long a distance and too many obstacles made it impossible for them to see clearly the tearful cook in the car, and also unable to feel his heartbroken to despairing pain...

Catwoman's car gradually moved away, and finally disappeared completely from sight.Luffy also seemed to have exhausted his last bit of strength, and lay down on the ground panting.

For a while, there was only silence here.Because of the life card, Dawang Coconut Tree didn't dare to walk around.And Nami just sat on the ground, holding her legs in silence.

Encore took out the first aid kit that he had prepared earlier from the space tunnel, knelt down beside Luffy and began to help him clean up the blood on his body.Lu Fei looked at the sky above quietly, then turned his head to look at the girl who was helping him clean the wound.

After a long while, Nami asked in a low voice, "Luffy, are you really going to wait... This is the center of the enemy camp. Pound also said that what will happen to those who defeat the generals?" Such an end, it is said that he will be killed by the BIGMOM revenge army that comes with the storm in an instant... You can wait for the enemy, but Sanji just..."

"Sanji will come! I'll wait for him here!!" Luffy shouted firmly, and after looking at Encore, he suddenly puffed up and said, "Why did Encore say to let Sanji go? Huh? We finally waited for him..."

"I just noticed something interesting," Anke stretched out his hand to cover the small wounds on his body, and then asked, "Did you notice anything strange about Sanji just now?"

"???" Captain Straw Hat thought hard, and then said seriously, "There are several people in the car who look similar to Sanji, and their clothes are similar~"

Enke was almost amused by him, bit his lower lip to hold back the laughter, then smiled and said while healing, "It's hands, Sanji has a pair of rings on his hands. He saw that I noticed his When I was holding my hands, I covered them unnaturally."

Nami hadn't calmed down yet, and said angrily, "Maybe it's the characteristics of that noble Vinsmoke family, after all, he is now a noble prince!"

Anke just smiled, looked down into Luffy's eyes and said softly, "For a cook, hands are everything. Besides, he's your partner, Luffy. We should trust him, shouldn't we?"

"..." Lu Fei stared blankly at the pair of clear pupils for a while, nodded half-understood, then smiled brightly, "Yeah! I've always believed in him~~~~ ~~~~~"

"That's fine~" An Ke laughed, and after quickly healing the wound on his body, he suddenly said, "Speaking of it, Luffy, smile~"

"??", feeling the strange question marks on the face of the captain of the straw hat, but he still grinned directly, the smile with one missing tooth was still very bright.

"Hehehe~~~", Anke couldn't help laughing, and playfully poked the place where the tooth was missing, "Here, one tooth is missing~~~~"

Luffy blinked, stretched out his hand and pressed it, then laughed and said, "I just said it feels a little weird~hahaha~~~~~"

"Is it time to laugh now?!" Nami interrupted him angrily, the anger still lingering on her face.

Anke just combed her long hair quietly, then tied it behind her head with a blue headband slowly, thinking about where the key of that small and exquisite handcuff was placed, or who was on it.
