To the end of the sea [One Piece]

In Ikegawa Ena's trip, the stop she stayed at the longest was called the Sea of ​​Dreams.

This is the legendary sea area, where AllBlue is located.

The ocean, which brought together all the fish in the world, quickly became a holiday resort, and became a must-see attraction along with Fish-Man Island on the Grand Line. The first residents to settle here were also very surprising.

When Bingshan walked towards Eina with a smile on her face, she was stunned.

"Mr. Bingshan?" She stretched out her hand to shake his and said, somewhat unable to react, "Why... is the City of Seven Waters in the Sea of ​​Dreams?"

"I have been designing this drawing since you left." Bingshan looked much older than during the Judiciary Island incident, but he seemed to be in good spirits.

"That incident made me realize more and more... that this is not the way for the Seven Rivers City to continue like this." Bingshan said, "The tsunamis that hit every year... and the single exit model all made me determined to transform the entire city into a city." An island that can move.”

"When Mr. Tom wanted to build a sea train, no one believed he could do it, but that god-like man created history." He smiled and said with nostalgia in his eyes, "As his disciple...I also I want to try that kind of challenge.”

"Now you see, I did it." He straightened his back proudly, "The Capital of Seven Waters is no longer called that name."

"This is...the Blue City."

A dark-haired girl with a ponytail came over and handed a document to Bingshan, pushing up her glasses towards Eina.

"Mayor, please sign." She met Ena's puzzled gaze and introduced herself first: "Hello, Miss Ikegawa Ena, I am Luo Li, the mayor's secretary. The mayor said that you are a distinguished guest, and I want to I will receive you well. If you have any questions in Dream Sea, you can come to me. I am a very trustworthy assistant!"

Eina watched Luo Li walk away after getting the documents, staring at Bingshan with a look that was hesitant to speak, until she started to feel guilty after staring at him.

"Luo...Li?" Eina looked at Bingshan with dead fish eyes, "Can I ask how old she is this year?"

Bingshan scratched his head: "She was ten years old when we hired her...she is thirteen now."

Ena complained with an accusing look in her eyes, "Are you really not illegal child labor?" and "You seem to have a big problem."

"But Luo Li is really good." Bingshan turned his head, "She handled the relocation and expansion for me. It's better than I imagined."

Eina looked up at the prosperous blue city.

"You came here to find Blackfoot, right?" Bingshan said, "I asked Blue to take you to Barati."

"Thank you." Eina nodded, "You can go and do your work, don't worry about me."

She got on Blue and drove towards the outside of the island, gradually approaching the busiest commercial district.

The tallest building among them has the words "Sea Restaurant Barati" written on it.

Memories came to her mind, and she recalled the scene when she first met Luffy and others, which was at Barati's headquarters in the East China Sea.

She saw Sauron and Hawkeye's duel, and then caught up with their ship.

At that time, she didn't realize what kind of chapter she was opening, nor that she was witnessing the first confrontation between the former greatest swordsman in the world and the current greatest swordsman.

"Hello, Miss! Can you dine alone?" The waiter at the door greeted her warmly.

"Ah... no, I'm looking for Sanji." She gestured with her hand, "The blond chef with curly eyebrows should be here, right?"

The waiter was stunned for a moment, then immediately showed a clear smile: "You are also looking for the chef. Sorry, the chef's meeting will not start in an hour. You can eat some fruit with the ladies over there. Wait."

She looked at a group of exquisitely dressed women next to her. Their eyes were shining, and they would look expectantly in the direction of the kitchen from time to time between conversations.

Eina raised her forehead in amusement. She seemed to understand what was going on.

She sat down next to a blond girl, who looked at her with a look of surprise.

"This is your first time here!" She came closer to talk to her, "Are you a tourist?"

"Yeah." She nodded, "Are you... all waiting to see the chef?"

"Yes." The girl said shyly, "Mr. Sanji is very popular here. He leaves the kitchen for a fixed few hours every day to make desserts for us on the spot."

"Is everyone here for him?"

"Well...most of them came here because they wanted to eat his cooking, and they were attracted by Mr. Sanji's appearance, coupled with his thoughtfulness and attentiveness to ladies, so many people came here specifically to meet him every day. "The girl said, "Yes, my name is Taji, what's your name?"

"My name is...Rosa." Eina blinked, "Does Taji like Sanji too?"

"I like Mr. Sanji...but he's not the same as them." Taji lowered his head in embarrassment. "A month ago, I fell out of love and lost my job, and my whole life fell into a trough. Then I decided to use my savings to travel and relax, and I came here. Sea of ​​Dreams.”

"I was sitting alone in the corner in silence, but that shining man noticed me." A smile appeared on Taji's face. "After the meal, I received a dessert with a letter attached."

“‘The world may be a bad place, but your smile is a unique treasure’ – from the chef.”

Taji laughed: "That's it... I received the first concern in a month. I gradually started to cheer up and found a new job in the Blue City."

"Today is a day off, so I came to see Sanji." Taji said, "But I like him, but I am more grateful to him. In this dark moment, he was able to bring me that little A sense of warmth is really important to me.”

Eina listened to the girl tell her story with a smile on her lips.

"Rosa, you look familiar. Have I seen you somewhere? Are you a famous person?" Taji suddenly tilted his head and looked at her.

"Really? Maybe I look more similar to someone else." Eina didn't panic at all, "People often say that."

"Indeed... Rosa, you are so beautiful, maybe you resemble some celebrity." Taji said, "Ah, Sanji is coming out! But Rosa, I tell you, you must not fall in love with him."

"why?"

Taji lowered his body mysteriously: "Because everyone in the Dream Sea knows that Sanji has a woman he loves deeply in his heart. So you can say you like him, but there will be no result if you fall in love with him."

Eina raised her eyebrows: "Don't you all know who that person is?"

"I don't know." Taji shook his head, "So there were people who felt that Sanji was using made-up women to sway his admirers. But when Sanji found out, he lost his temper once in a century. So from then on everyone They all believe in the existence of that girl."

"I really want to meet the woman who can make Mr. Sanji fall in love with her." Taji said enviously, "She must be the happiest person in the world."

The silver-haired woman held her chin in her hands and said softly with a smile in her eyes: "It's true..."

Today's guests at the Menghai branch of Bharati Restaurant clearly felt that something was wrong with their popular chef today.

When the blond man walked out of the kitchen to the bar in the lobby as usual, he didn't know what he caught with his peripheral vision, and his whole body froze for a few seconds.

Then, today, he seemed more reserved than usual when responding to the ladies' teasing. Chef Kaliman even saw with his own eyes that Sanji, who never made mistakes in cooking, almost put the wrong spices.

"What's wrong with him?" the chefs whispered. "Looks like he's nervous as hell?"

"The tips of my ears are red, I tell you." The head chef crossed his arms and said, "Is it because of one of the guests?"

The men looked around, and it was difficult to ignore the beautiful woman they saw.

"So beautiful..." A young chef said dreamily, but Kaliman covered his mouth.

"Damn!" He said with surprise and excitement on his face, "That hair color...hey, is it real or fake?"

"It's true..." The older chef couldn't hide his excitement, "Isn't that Naraku!!"

Many of them have been pirates, so they are naturally no strangers to the pirate group that made history. And Naraku, this powerful and beautiful female pirate, has been the dream lover of many men. Some people even still have her wanted poster hanging on the wall.

"I'm here to see Sanji!" The chefs were pushing each other, "Hey, I really want that guy Sanji to get an autograph for me!"

"Sanji seems to be very nervous today." Taji also noticed the man's discomfort and whispered to Eina, "It's not usually like this."

Eina looked calm, but she actually secretly blinked at the man standing in front of everyone.

The tips of his ears turned redder, and his men quickly made an ice cream and handed it out.

When it was Taji's turn, they were at the last table. Sanji cleared his throat: "Miss Taji, what are you going to do today?"

"Phantom of the Opera!" Taji said expectantly, "Oh, by the way, this is my new friend Rosa, who is also here to meet Sanji~"

"Rosa?" Sanji looked at Eina with a subtle expression, and the latter tilted her head playfully: "Is there any problem? Mr. Sanji?"

"No...what would Miss Rosa want?" he said helplessly.

"Since this is my first time here, Sanji will decide for me, okay?" she said.

Sanji raised his lips: "Of course."

The Phantom of the Opera at Tagaytay was quickly made, with Opera cake as the main body, decorated with finely chopped crisps, and exquisite patterns drawn with chocolate sauce.

What was pushed in front of Eina was a chiffon cake with rose petals as the main theme, and a heart-shaped cookie beside it.

"Rose Lover." Sanji said softly, "It matches your name very well - Miss Rosa."

Eina raised the corners of her mouth and put a petal into her mouth with a fork.

"What is that? I've never seen you do it before, Sanji." A blue-haired woman next to him said, "Can I also have a copy of Rose Lover next time?"

But the blond man straightened his back and said elegantly and politely: "Sorry, Miss Lina, I designed this dessert specifically for one person, and I will only make it for her alone."

After he said this, almost everyone's eyes fell on Ena.

Then, someone immediately recognized her identity.

"Ah! It's Naraku!!" A short-haired girl exclaimed excitedly, "She's a member of the original Straw Hat Pirates!! Naraku! I also use a sword! My goal is to become a female swordsman like you!"

Even women who don't pay attention to pirates immediately have an impression when they hear the name Naraku.

Taji covered his mouth belatedly and looked at Eina in shock.

"I, I just said it looked familiar..."

Eina was at a loss for a moment and could only look at Sanji complainingly. She had no intention of causing such a scene, and she had no idea what Sanji was going to do.

Then, he grabbed her wrist.

"Excuse me, ladies." He pulled Eina up from her seat and strode towards the door with her. Before leaving, he did not forget to say a word to the dumbfounded chefs: "I'm sorry. , I’ll leave today’s dinner to you!”

"Hey Sanji! What are you doing by suddenly pulling Naraku!" Kaliman shouted.

The blond man turned around and showed a bright smile. That was the most childish expression Kaliman had ever seen in Sanji since he had known him for so long, with joy mixed with pride and a little bit of pampering.

"My girlfriend came to see me, and I went on a date with her."
