[Comprehensive] Fire Boxer's Little Chef

"Here, here's your share."

Taking a sip of lemon juice, Wayne pushed the extra seafood fried rice to Ace, and pushed the leftover fried rice to the other side.

"Ah, thank you, it's so nerve-wracking, I fell asleep again."

Ace rubbed his head, not paying much attention to eating the seafood fried rice that Wayne ordered for him, as if he was not at all surprised that he slept while eating.

"Fell asleep?!"

"How could it be possible to fall asleep while eating and chatting!"

Seeing Ace wake up, the crowd who had been avoiding him gathered together, as if they wanted to witness the miraculous event of "resurrection of the dead".

When they heard Ace say that they were asleep, everyone seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt, and they could only vent their shock by complaining.

No, if the target is Ace, such a thing is entirely possible.

Wayne sat quietly in front of the bar, slowly enjoying the delicious seafood feast in front of him, turning a blind eye to everyone's shocked expressions.

"But what are you arguing about?"

Ace looked blankly at the crowd gathered behind, but his mouth still kept chewing food.

"Everyone is worried about you!"

Everyone said angrily.

"Your shop invited a sketch performance troupe?"

Ace turned his head and pointed at the crowd behind him who answered unanimously, and asked the restaurant owner standing in front of him.

"No, no, as long as you're fine..."

The tall restaurant owner was a little speechless, but after seeing Ace wake up, he still showed a look of relief. After all, if someone died in his shop, it would not be good for the reputation of his shop.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ace's head fell heavily again. Sitting in the seat, Wayne quickly took away the paella in front of him, and Ace's head hit the wooden bar. There was a heavy muffled sound, and then, a burst of even breathing sounded from his body.

"Hey, fell asleep again!"

This time, the restaurateur yelled out, along with the crowd.

"..."

Wayne suddenly felt that it was necessary for him to advise Ace not to fall asleep without even saying hello when eating in the future. After all, with the psychological endurance of ordinary people, he really couldn't bear his sudden behavior.

Seeing that there was no homicide, the onlookers left one after another with bored expressions on their faces.

Human beings like to join in the fun, the more serious the incident, the more interested they are, no matter what happens is good or bad.

"By the way, Wayne, you haven't told me why you came to Alabasta all of a sudden."

After eating all the seafood fried rice on the plate, Ace turned his head, looked at his partner whom he hadn't seen for a month, and asked with some doubts.

"It's nothing, I just thought of it suddenly, can't I?"

Wayne didn't look at Ace, he picked up the glass in front of him, and drank the little lemon juice left in the glass.

The chilled juice passes through the throat and reaches the stomach. The unique sourness of lemon remains in the throat. There is a slight burning sensation. The cold liquid stomach slowly ripples, and an indescribable feeling rises from the bottom of my heart. cold.

The sun outside still scorched the desert fiercely, and even in the shady small restaurant, one could feel the undeniable heat, but Wayne felt inexplicably cold.

"Forehead……"

Ace choked on Wayne's words and didn't know how to respond.

Is Wayne angry?

Ace turned his head and looked at his partner carefully. His facial expression was still as sparse as before. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry. The tone of his speech just now was as indifferent as ever, and he couldn't tell how much anger was contained in it. .

However, Wayne was really angry.

The unique intuition of single-celled organisms made Ace realize that there was something wrong with Wayne at this time.

But exactly what and why Wayne was angry, he didn't understand at all. After all, Wayne was not a person who gets angry easily.

It is precisely because of this that he is very troubled about how to resolve Wayne's angry emotions.

"So, did you find it? Blackbeard."

The atmosphere between the two became a little stiff, and just as Ace was thinking about how to break this awkward atmosphere, Wayne suddenly turned his head to his side and started talking to him.

It's just this question that Wayne asked...

"Not yet. That guy is more able to escape than I thought. I heard that he may have come to Juba, Alabasta, so I want to try my luck."

He drank all the lemon juice left in the glass in one go. Ace's appearance looked different at this time, and he was much more serious than before. The three words Blackbeard disappeared completely.

The tone of the speech is completely remorseful and painful...

It seems that Blackbeard's killing of Sage had a great impact on Ace, not only because of the loss of his companion's life, but also because of the fact that the companion who once drank wine with him would betray him. It must have caused him great pain.

Today's companion may be tomorrow's enemy, Wayne thinks that Ace should fully understand the meaning of this sentence at this moment.

His right hand barely stopped about three centimeters above Ace's orange cowboy hat. Wayne silently retracted his right hand that he stretched out at some point. He had just unconsciously thought of comforting Ace in the same way as Clow, He also seemed to be affected by Ace's emotions, and became a little strange.

She wanted to touch Ace's head to comfort him...

"Ace..."

Thinking of the result of Ace's battle with Blackbeard, the final result of the war on the top, and the white marble tombstone with the orange cowboy hat in his dream, Wayne suddenly felt an urge to tell everything.

Ace, you are going to die...

Wayne couldn't say this sentence no matter what, as if he was afraid that once he said it, the scene in the dream would become a reality.

"Well, what happened?"

Ace leaned in front of Wayne, looking suspiciously at Wayne who hesitated to speak.

"you……"

"You really have the courage to eat generously in front of everyone, the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Portgas d. Ace."

Before Wayne could say what he had hesitated for a long time, a man's voice came from the door, calling Ace's name.

After hearing this voice, Ace calmly distanced himself from Wayne, leaving only a side face covered by the shadow of the hat for Wayne.

"Ace?"

Wayne was a little puzzled by Ace's strange behavior, turned around slightly and looked at the man who suddenly appeared at the door of the restaurant calmly.

It was a very strange man. In a hot desert country like Alabasta, he was still wearing a thick fur-collared coat with a big hand behind his back. His silver-blue hair was all combed back, revealing a He had a serious and vicious face, with two cigars in his mouth and a circle of cigars tied around his arms.

He was standing at the door of the restaurant at this time, his slightly ferocious eyes were fixed on Ace who was sitting at the bar with his back facing him, like a wild wolf staring at its prey.

"White, the Whitebeard Pirates?!"

"That stunned boy is part of the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"Yeah, I've seen the logo on the back, it's the logo of the Whitebeard Pirates, why did it appear here?"

Ever since the man with two cigars in his mouth said the words Whitebeard Pirates, the restaurant seemed to be exploding. Pointing and chirping to discuss.

"What is the famous big pirate doing in this country?"

The man with a bad complexion asked in an unkind tone.

"I'm here to find someone, my brother."

Ace put down the water glass in his hand, turned around and looked at the man, the expression on his face changed to a bohemian look, as if he didn't pay attention to this man who was obviously a bad visitor.

"..."

The atmosphere between the two became extremely stiff and tense in an instant, and the diners who had been dining in the restaurant also showed a nervous look, watching the two people motionlessly.

Regarding the plot of One Piece, Wayne had already forgotten all about it, and it was purely a coincidence that he knew that Ace’s destination was Alabasta this time. Can't guess either.

Wayne inadvertently caught a glimpse of the two big red characters "justice" printed on the back of the man's coat, and realized that the man's identity should be a navy.

When Wayne looked at the navy in front of him, Ace had already said a few words to the bad-looking navy, and before Wayne could react, the two suddenly put on a fighting posture, like It's like fighting in this restaurant.

"..."

Although he didn't understand what happened between the two of them, Wayne consciously stood up from the chair at the bar and sat down at a place far away from the two of them. Needless to say, Ace's strength, this sudden The strength of the navy that appeared must not be much worse. The battle between these two people will definitely cause great damage, and he, as an ordinary person, will definitely be affected.

Although he knew that Ace would definitely protect him and not let him get hurt, he didn't have to sit there and watch the battle between the two.

He believed that Ace would definitely win.

There is no inevitable basis, just simply believing, believing in my partner.

As if feeling the voice of Wayne, Ace showed a big smile in the direction of Wayne, as if to reassure him.

"Eraser!! Bazooka!!"

The battle between Ace and the silver-blue-haired navy was on the verge of breaking out, and at this moment, a shout came from a long distance outside the restaurant, and this voice was spreading from far to near to the restaurant at an incomparably fast speed inside.

I have a bad feeling...

In the next second, before Wayne and the diners in the restaurant could react, a figure rushed into the restaurant like a rocket. It was a red-clothed boy wearing a straw hat, and he had already put on a fighting face. The silver-blue-haired navy in a posture was suddenly bumped by the boy who appeared suddenly, and flew out, and even confronted him head-on, sitting on the bar seat with Ace, smashed through several layers of walls, and flew away. To a place far away.

"..."

Sitting not far away, Wayne, who had a panoramic view of the sudden change, silently looked at Ace, who flew far away with the previous navy, and was very grateful that he had the foresight to stay away from the scene of the accident in advance.
