Pirate's silver-winged evil star

Early the next morning, the news about the Sacred Tree Festival was hung on the largest notice board in the guild by Luo, and was marked with eye-catching colors. All the hunters in the guild learned about the Sacred Tree Festival, but no one knew about it. What kind of activity is this?

Chen Sheng came to the lobby early. At this time, many hunters were gathering around the notice board and talking about what kind of event was so big. Even the staff who usually went to work on time couldn't get to work on time.

Chen Sheng knew that Shado was giving special training to the residents of Sunlight Island, informing them of the process and activities of the festival. After all, there was not much time left, and the festival must be completed on time even if some work was delayed.

Looking at the hunters who were discussing curiously, Chen Sheng wore a mask and hid in the crowd without making a sound. He silently came to the restaurant to have breakfast and think about matters related to the Sacred Tree Festival.

The Sacred Tree Ceremony is a ritual established by Chen Sheng in order to hide his secrets. The core of the ritual is his own abilities that cannot be copied. How to express these abilities reasonably and without suspicion is the meaning of the Sacred Tree Ceremony.

"what?"

After making a large portion of mashed potatoes and a bucket of roasted pork with sauce, Chen Sheng put a piece of roasted pork into his mouth and immediately expressed doubts. This roasted pork tastes great!I don’t know how many times better than before I left.

It happened that Luo also came to the restaurant to have breakfast, so Chen Sheng asked Luo:

"Luo, today's meal tastes good. Have you hired a chef recently?"

Luo Ye packed a large meal and came to Chen Sheng's side. When he heard Chen Sheng's question, he immediately answered:

"This, it's not recruitment, it's a group of pirates."

"Pirate?" Chen Sheng asked curiously after hearing Luo's answer.

Luo nodded and said: "Pirates are just a very special pirate group. Teacher, you should know that the Chef Pirates are the pirates who went to sea as chefs and became pirates, and finally made a name for themselves. group."

Chen Sheng immediately recalled the relevant information: "The Chef Pirates, that pirate group led by Red-footed Zepp, the pirate group that just went to sea and obtained 4000 million bounties in less than a year, you kidnap him here Already?".Seven

Luo said: "That's right. The navy discovered traces of the Chef Pirates a few days ago, but because there was no navy nearby that could arrive in time, they asked us to arrest them. I read the information and found that although they robbed many merchant ships, they usually They only rob wealth but not life, and they also don't rob food. Most of the blood on their hands comes from nobles and pirates from some countries. They are pirates who can be reformed, so they were captured alive."

Chen Sheng said: "Who did it? Red-footed Zhefu is not weak. Is there anyone else besides you and Drake who can defeat him alone?"

Luo said: "It was Rear Admiral Ghost Spider who took action. He led the naval forces to surround the Chef Pirates, and then captured them alive by cutting off supplies."

Chen Sheng nodded and said: "It turns out to be a ghost spider, no wonder. How have the navy been doing recently? Is there any restless movement?"

Luo thought for a while and said, "No, most of the navy are very satisfied with the treatment of the Hunter Guild. There is nothing unusual except that they are not very gregarious. Some navy are also very active and work hard to get promoted."

Chen Sheng said: "That's good. I'll go see our new chef later. I'll give this to you. This is the proof of the knight. You can go to Ajie to find out the specific function. They are our new partners. You guys know them." one time."

Chen Sheng handed a blank mask and token to Luo, and then said:

"This mask represents the identity of a non-returner. You should have heard of it on Rubek Island. The non-returner is the shadow department of the Hunter Guild, which is responsible for assassinations and intelligence exploration. It is specifically divided into..."

After introducing the organizational structure of Buguiren to Luo, Chen Sheng said to Luo:

"From today on, you are Killian of the Non-Returners. You are free to find talented young people to develop as subordinates. Remember to report them to me when the time comes. When the scale of the Non-Returners increases, I will increase your authority."

After understanding the structure of the non-returner, Luo nodded, put the mask in his hand away, and asked:

"Teacher, what's going on with this Sacred Tree Festival?"

Luo is one of the few crew members who has witnessed the growth of ancient trees, so he naturally knows that there was no such activity in the past.

"This matter is a bit complicated to explain, but it doesn't matter. I have arranged for Shado to do it. You just need to manage the order of the hunters and ensure that there are no problems." Chen Sheng did not explain anything about the Sacred Tree Festival. No more The language is also very weak, it is better to wait until the day of the event to tell the world.

"it is good."

After the exchange between the two ended, Chen Sheng packed up the tableware and went to the kitchen, where he saw the chef pirates who were busy.

Although they were brought here as prisoners, it seemed that they had no complaints, worked very hard, and seemed to enjoy themselves quite a lot.

As a chef, Zhepu has an extremely serious attitude. He will carefully supervise every chef to check whether the dishes they make are up to standard. Unqualified dishes are not allowed to be served to the guests' tables, but are kept for his own people. make breakfast.

After the busiest time passed, Chen Sheng came to Zhepu and said to him:

"Red-footed Zepp, the former leader of the Chef Pirates, with a bounty of 4200 million Baileys, how about it? Are you still used to it recently?"

Zhepu glanced at Chen Sheng, continued to direct his crew to cook, and said without looking back:

"Thanks to your guild, I have no shortage of food and accommodation, but no freedom."

From Zhepu's tone, Chen Sheng didn't hear much resentment and seemed to have accepted this kind of life.

"I have traveled too many places and sometimes feel tired. If you can live a stable life, who would want to become a pirate? After all, dreams and other things cannot be eaten. Although tea, rice, oil and salt are common, they are It is an indispensable necessity. Only when you go to many places can you understand what life is.”

"Compared to my hometown, this place is pretty good. At least I know not to waste food."

After listening to Zhepu's words, Chen Sheng somewhat understood his psychology.Although the Hunter Guild provides free food, in order to prevent waste, the guild's restaurant adopts a self-service model. You can take as much as you like. If there is too much left, the staff will weigh it, which will seriously affect the payment of benefits.

This model has long been popular on Earth, but in the Grand Line, almost no one has the awareness to save food, and waste is simply not too common.For pirates, at least 30% to 40% of the food will be discarded every time they eat, maybe because they don't like it, or maybe they just don't want to eat it.

"Although dreams cannot be eaten, what's the difference between a person without dreams and a salted fish? As a chef, I don't believe you are not curious at all whether the legendary ALLBLUE really exists!" Chen Sheng hugged his shoulders and leaned against the wall. said above.

Zhepu was indeed attracted by Chen Sheng's words, turned around and said, "Do you also believe in the existence of ALLBLUE?"

Chen Sheng said: "Why don't you believe it? This sea is full of miracles. When you see the miracles on this island, you will understand that nothing in this world is impossible!"

"ALLBLUE, the place where the four seas meet, the miraculous island floating in the sky, the city made of gold, and the huge creatures carrying the country. I believe that these legends all really exist somewhere in the sea, but there are just a lack of people to discover them. "

Hearing Chen Sheng's words, Zhepu smiled and said: "Hahaha, I didn't expect that the president of the Hunter Guild still believed in these ridiculed legends, but I agree with your idea, the sea is always full of miracles! "

Seeing Zhepu's excitement, Chen Sheng said again: "Not only that, the delicacies in this world are not limited to fish!"

When Zhepu heard this, he became interested and asked, "Does President Chen know any other delicious food?"

Chen Sheng said: "Of course, the ozone grass that grows at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters and requires two people to use it at the same time to prevent it from withering; the gem meat that grows in the body of a giant elephant and has the taste of all meat; a drop of raw juice can make a person 25 meters long The water of the swimming pool turns into rainbow fruits with rich and mellow juice... There are so many delicacies in the world!"

"Such miraculous food..." Zhepu's eyes gradually lit up, and his already silent heart began to agitate again, wishing he could go to sea on the spot to find those miraculous foods.

"Hehe, but Captain Zhepu, you are guilty now. The treasures you looted are quite a lot. You can only leave when you complete your atonement through work!" Chen Sheng poured a basin of cold water down and said.

"In the next few days, Sunrise Island will be preparing for the Sacred Tree Festival, and I have to ask you all to prepare a lot of food. In addition to the people on the island, the patron saint will also participate in the festival. Its food is not easy to cook. Originally, I planned to use simple food. Baked food will be used instead, but since you are here, Master Zhepu, this task is left to you to find a solution. As long as it satisfies the patron saint, I can make the decision to reduce your working hours by three months."

After hearing this, there seemed to be fire burning in Zhepu's eyes: "Cooking for that kind of giant beast? It's really a challenging task, okay! I've accepted this task, so don't break the contract!"

"Of course not. A gentleman's word is as fast as his horse's whip!"

In this way, the problem about the food for the festival was solved. Thinking about what problems remained unsolved, while walking, Chen Sheng came to an area he rarely visited. A burst of melodious violin music came, and Chen Sheng was attracted by this music. , following the direction of the sound, it turned out to be Brooke playing his violin by the river.

After enjoying the song closely, Chen Sheng said: "Great music, but there is sadness in it that cannot be resolved. Mr. Brooke, are you in a bad mood?"

Seeing Chen Sheng's arrival, Brooke took off his hat, saluted and said:

"Hey ho ho ho, Ou Ya Ou Ya, it turns out to be President Chen. It's nothing, I just miss my friends a little. Unknowingly, we have been separated for decades, so we are a little uncomfortable with it."

"My partner, being sentimental is the most painful thing when parting. Staying here for a long time will really remind you of sad past events."

Chen Sheng said: "Well, when this festival is over, Mr. Brooke, you will sail with our hunting group first, and maybe you can find some memories of the past."

Brooke thought of the agreement he had made. Maybe, it was still alive, would it be waiting for him again?

So Brooke said: "Hey ho ho ho, okay, it's time to go out for a walk. Staying in one place will inevitably trigger emotions."

Chen Sheng said: "In a few days, I will have to trouble Mr. Brooke with the music for the festival. This is the score of the music. I will also have to ask Mr. Brooke to perform it at the festival."

Brooke took the sheet music, took off his hat and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll make sure it's clean and beautiful!"

Farewell to Brooke, the rest of the festival is just a few minor problems, and all we have to do is wait for the day when the festival starts.
