"Sanji, take back what you just said. The relationship between us doesn't need any guidance at all." In Luffy's simple world view, meeting his friends is the guide of fate, and there is no deliberate intention at all.

Quinn is both a teacher and a friend to them. He is not only a senior who knows how to take care of others, but also a guide who teaches them. Out of respect for the other party, he naturally does not want to hear his partner say rude words.

Sanji exhaled the last puff of smoke and said calmly: "Luffy, there are many ways to get close to each other. I don't like to get along with someone who I can't see through."

Luffy wanted to refute, but he heard Quinn say: "He is right. Understanding each other is also a very important part of the relationship."

"But Sanji...how well do you think you know me?"

Sanji looked slightly startled, then shook his head and said, "I really don't know much about you, but what does this have to do with the topic just now?"

"It doesn't matter much, but I think it's better for you not to be too curious about my thoughts." Quinn said calmly.

"You know even if you don't say it, you just want to use us to attract the attention of the world government to achieve some of your own goals." Sanji looked serious. He was not as simple and easy to deceive as Luffy and the others. Because of his childhood experience, He really hates being taken advantage of.

"Clap~"

Quinn clapped his hands with appreciation and chuckled: "In a sense, you are right. The World Government has been paying attention to you since the day you went to sea."

"It's all because of you that we attract so much attention." Sanji curled his lips.

"Do you know what the consequences are for a pirate to become famous?" Quinn asked suddenly.

"Of course it's the navy's pursuit." Sanji replied matter-of-factly.

Quinn slowly shook his head and denied his answer, "The effects of a pirate becoming famous can be good or bad. If he is just being chased by the navy, I don't think he is an outstanding pirate."

"That's right! My goal is to be the Pirate King, not to be hunted down by the navy." The stubborn Luffy expressed his understanding.

Sanji glanced at the other party, sighed and said helplessly: "With such a captain, the price of our fame is to go against the World Government."

Quinn nodded slowly, and this time he did not refute his words, but continued in agreement: "What you did today seems to you to be moving forward for your dreams, but in the eyes of those people, It’s a blatant provocation against them.”

"What I want to say is that your future is destined to be extraordinary. By then you will find that your dreams are so close to reality."

Sanji showed a look of doubt when he heard this. He didn't understand the meaning of the other person's words. Was he telling them to hold on to their dreams or something?

"To be honest, I have never understood why everyone likes you. In my opinion, this is just the basics of a man, but you always seem to be able to do well. This should be the reason why you are popular with everyone."

"Yeah, then I'm grateful for the compliment." Quinn stretched out as if sleepily, and said in a casual tone: "You can look at me however you want. I'm too lazy to fight against you guys anyway."

Seeing Quinn walking towards the cabin in a familiar manner, Sanji opened his mouth to stop him, but after a moment of hesitation, he took back the words that came to his lips.

Usopp walked closer and patted Sanji on the shoulder, "Don't worry about Sanji. Brother Quinn will not have any ill intentions towards us."

Sanji had only known Luffy and others before this, and did not know Quinn as early as they did. It was reasonable for the other party to have doubts.

"I always feel that he has been charting our path forward. I hope that, like you said, he really has no ill intentions towards us." Sanji whispered.

"Don't be stupid Sanji, this path is ours to choose, isn't it? You want to find the Red Sea and I want to be the Pirate King. Let's all move forward towards our dreams together." Luffy always maintained an indifferent attitude, holding his hands He passed Sanji with the back of his head, "I'm a little tired today, I want to have a good sleep."

"It's all blue." Sanji corrected the mistake in Luffy's words and stepped into the cabin.

The cabin of the Merry ship was divided into men's and women's lounges. The rooms of Luffy and the boys were very simple. Apart from some wardrobes and the like, there was not even a bed.

Sanji, who was more particular about the valley, specially set up a hammock, while the others just laid out a mat on the ground to sleep.

In the cabin, Zoro had fallen asleep on the ground, and little Chopper was lying on his side snoring lightly.

"I'll give you the hammock." Sanji sat on the ground, indicating with his eyes where his bed was.

Quinn lay casually on the floor with his head on his head and looked at the ceiling, "That's good. I haven't slept on the floor for a long time."

Sanji saw that the other party was not grateful and was not polite, so he jumped onto the hammock.

Luffy and Usopp may have been too tired from playing during the day, so they immediately fell asleep as soon as they entered the cabin and touched the pillows. The room was filled with the sound of snoring.

Quinn, who was sleeping on the side, listened to the sound next to his ears and felt the hardness of the splint, and suddenly had an illusion.

Thinking of the past, an inexplicable thought surged in his heart. If time went back, could he do better?

"Not asleep yet?"

Sanji's voice came from the side, and Quinn responded softly in the darkness: "Aren't you the same?"

"Actually, I haven't finished what I said just now." Sanji said in a low voice.

"What do you want to ask this late at night?" Quinn looked helpless.

"You...you should know about the Vinsmoke family, right?" Sanji looked hesitant, but still asked the doubts in his heart.

Quinn raised an eyebrow, "I thought you didn't want to think about it, but unexpectedly you brought it up anyway."

"You really know my identity." Sanji lay flat on his back, as if he had expected his attitude.

"I have never dealt with the Vinsmoke family, but their partners have something to do with me." Quinn answered his previous question.

"Why are you asking this suddenly?"

"Forget it if you don't know him." Sanji put away the complicated thoughts in his heart and didn't plan to ask any more questions.

"Do you want to know how your family is doing?"

"I don't want to." Sanji replied coldly.

The cabin was quiet for a while, but Sanji still couldn't bear his temper and said proactively: "I want to know the news about Reiju."

"Although I want to give you a definite answer, I haven't met your family yet." Quinn explained softly.

Perhaps it was because his thoughts were too complicated that he couldn't sleep peacefully, but Sanji tossed and turned without feeling sleepy.

"I want to ask you one thing."

Before Quinn could speak, he added: "Forget it, I'll just deal with it myself in the future."
