[Comprehensive] Fire Boxer's Little Chef

The sky is clear and blue.

The weather in the coastal town is still the same as usual, the sun is shining brightly, warm but not scorching hot.This unknown town is so peaceful today.

Carrying a big plastic bag in one hand, Wayne walked unhurriedly on this sunny street. The light blue plastic bag was full of various ingredients.

There are a lot of broken stones scattered on the uneven bluestone road. If you are not careful, you may trip over.This small town has been baptized by the sun for many years. Although it is close to the coast, the air tends to be dry, and there is no moss in the gaps between the dilapidated bluestone slabs.

Wayne walked a little carelessly on this bluestone road that he had traveled for more than ten years and could walk with his eyes closed. It was rare that he didn't pay attention to the road under his feet, but was lost in thought.

It has been more than a month since the Whitebeard Pirates returned to this town, and his life has returned to the calmness of the past from the excitement of the adventures he experienced with Ace.

Although he has long been accustomed to the slow-paced and ordinary life in this small town where he has lived for 18 years, how should I put it, there is always a noisy person around him at this time, but suddenly, this person is a bit noisy and even The existence that gave him some headaches disappeared suddenly, and he always felt a little uncomfortable.

When I usually cook, I am used to making a lot of food. After the cooking is done, I suddenly realize that Ace is not here.In the end, I can only put all these extra dishes in the refrigerator and save them for later eating.

I always feel a little troubled.

It seems that I am a little too used to the existence of that guy, so that I take his existence for granted like eating and sleeping.

But even though it's annoying, it's surprisingly not annoying.

Don't hate the feeling like he's always there.

Before leaving the Whitebeard Pirates, Wayne asked Ace to pay more attention to Blackbeard Tiki, but seeing Ace's indifferent appearance, Wayne guessed that he didn't care much about his advice at all.

It's not that I don't want to tell Ace all the things, about the dark fruit, about Sage being killed, about him losing the battle with Blackbeard and being caught in the big prison under the sea, about the death of him and Whitebeard in the top war .

It's just that he can't guarantee that Ace will believe his groundless nonsense, after all, time travel is a fantasy, let alone a virtual comic world.

Besides, Ace is different from him. He has no trusted companions except Ace, but Ace is different. Except for him, all the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates are his companions, including Blackbeard. , Marshall Teach.

On one side is the Whitebeard Pirates who live and die like a family, and on the other side is a restaurant owner in a small coastal town who has just met and inexplicably became a partner. You can tell which is more important.

Although Ace is a single cell, he is not stupid. He will not believe inexplicable rumors for no reason. Even if the rumors come from Wayne, Wayne knows this, so he just made a side-effect and let Ace Pay more attention to the existence of Blackbeard, and didn't tell him everything directly.

The relationship between them is not good enough to trust each other without any grievances.

Whitebeard, Ace, and Thatch are not good guys.

Wayne is sure of that.

Although Sage is easy-going and straightforward, and belongs to the kind of good-natured character, but he is a pirate and will not change.

If you are a pirate, your hands will be stained more or less with the blood of your fellow humans, whether it is the good or the bad.

Wayne is not so arrogant that he wants to change the plot. He clearly understands that with his own strength, he can never reverse the rotation of the gear called the plot. Crushed blood and blood.

However, he really didn't want to watch Ace disappear into his world like this.

He really didn't want Ace to die.

Perhaps in the days to come, many people will fall in love with his cuisine, but those who can say without hesitation "I think Wayne's cuisine is the best in the world" like Ace, It is estimated that it will never appear again.

There is probably no one who will show him a warm smile like a flame, and seriously say to him "With me, I will not put you in danger".

There will never be another person who will take him out of this small coastal town, into the outside world, adventure everywhere, and look for ingredients.

The world is so big, there are so many people he knows and doesn't know, but the person who can be his partner can only be that one.

There is no such thing as fate. If he hadn't met Ace, maybe he would become a partner with someone else one day, and maybe he would never have a so-called partner in his life.

But he met Ace, and within his lifetime, he met the most important bond for a cook—a partner.

He also wanted to work with his partner to see things outside the town and cook ingredients that he had never seen before.

So he hopes that Ace can live, and he really wants to.

Strictly speaking, this small coastal town can barely be classified as Xia Island. In a year, except for a few days, the rest of the time is mostly sunny.But because of the coast, the sea breeze along the coast dissipates a lot of the scorching heat in the air, so even though the sun above the head is so strong that you can't open your eyes, it doesn't make people feel that hot in essence.

"Meow."

Crow's cry came from at his feet. Wayne, who was distracted, immediately came back to his senses when he heard Crow's cry, and turned his head to look at the little black cat following his feet. He didn't understand that Crow had been quiet Why did you suddenly call out.

"Meow."

The little black cat's fluffy head moved forward, as if to make Wayne look forward.

Following Crow's wishes, Wayne looked straight ahead, and immediately after, he saw a mass of human-like objects lying upright in the middle of the road with their faces facing down, motionless.

"..."

That person wouldn't be dead.

Wayne stood there in silence for a few seconds, then quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket expressionlessly, trying to call the emergency number of the hospital in the town.

But just when he turned on the phone and was about to dial a number, what seemed to be a personal object lying motionless on the ground in a corpse shape suddenly moved, as if it wanted to get up.

"It's about to be dried like a salted fish, Alu."

After struggling on the ground for a long time, the object that could not get up after all tried many times, finally gave up the idea of ​​getting up, as if giving up on itself, lying on the ground, motionless, maintaining the original posture and speaking tone There was obvious weakness in his face, and he looked like he had suffered from heat stroke.

Looking up at the bright, dazzling but not scorching sun in the sky, and looking at the strange person lying on the ground as if it had turned into a puddle of mud, the headache that I hadn’t seen for a long time suddenly returned to Wei Wei. In the senses of En.

"one more bowl!"

A voice full of vitality sounded in the small restaurant of Wayne. Wayne reluctantly took the empty bowl that was stretched out, and filled the empty bowl with a rice spoon in the few remaining pots. .

Looking at the young man sitting in front of the table and destroying the dishes on the table at a speed invisible to the naked eye, Wayne really couldn't tell the young man who was devouring the food and looking full of energy at this time was the same as the dying young man who was lying on the ground before. Tone teenagers linked together.

Another guy with a stomach capacity comparable to a black hole. Speaking of which, why are there all these guys whose stomachs are connected to different dimensions around him? One has a bigger appetite than the other. A normal person who eats so much would probably be stuffed to death long ago.

But having said that, this person looks so petite, I didn't expect to be so edible.

Wayne stared at the young man in front of him who was busy eating in some surprise. He seemed to be a little shorter than him at 175. As for the weight, according to Wayne, the boy in front of him did not belong to that kind of heavyweight figure, so he said He can eat so much, where does the food grow?

However, Wayne is more concerned about the boy's attire, a red long-fronted gown, white trousers, red cloth shoes, and a black ribbon around his waist. Although not many people have seen this kind of familiar attire in reality, but What I have often seen on TV is only the dress of the Chinese people - Tang suit.

Coupled with the boy's oriental face, slightly narrow black phoenix eyes, and a long black braid braided into a twist, if he hadn't seen Ace before, he was sure that this was the world of One Piece, and Wayne would have doubted whether he wore it. It's modern times.

"I'm full, thank you for your hospitality, Aru."

The strange boy who finally finished eating lightly patted his chubby belly, and lay back on the chair with a satisfied face. On the table full of food, there were only a pile of empty plates left.

Wayne noticed that when the boy spoke, he would use a strange suffix, "Aru"?what is that?Having said that, don't even eat all the bones, won't his stomach hurt?

"It's really a great help. If you didn't bring me back at that time, I'm afraid I would be dried up as a salted fish. Thank you for your life-saving grace, Alu."

The boy lying on his back in the chair suddenly jumped to the side of Wayne, staring straight at Wayne who was close at hand, his obsidian-like eyes were full of gratitude.

Startled by the boy's sudden action, Wayne hastily distanced himself from the boy. Being observed at such a close distance by a stranger made him a little uncomfortable.

However, although it was only for a moment, the skin of this young man in Tang suit seemed a little too white when viewed from a close distance.

Under the sun, it is almost transparent white.

"By the way, Shanks told me that when you meet someone you don't know, you have to tell him your name. My name is Liuli Alu."

The almost transparent boy in Tang suit opened a pair of clear eyes like obsidian, and his face was full of innocence, like a child who was not deeply involved in the world, and introduced himself to Wayne solemnly.
