Starting with Food Wars, I'll be sourcing delicacies from all realms.

Zoro clearly realized something, and his face instantly turned panicked.

However, Luffy was already prepared and launched himself out.

And Zoro was also brought along.

The two drew a graceful arc in the air, leaving only Zoro's panicked scream.

"Ahhh... Luffy..."

……

Luffy probably does it because he often plays with human slingshots.

So it was very precise; the two landed directly on the sail.

It then landed safely.

"Damn it!"

Zoro glared fiercely at Luffy, who seemed completely unconcerned.

Thankfully, it landed on the sail.

What if we hit the hull of the ship?

However, they managed to escape successfully.

"Luffy, you really are reckless! But it's good that you're alright."

Sanji took a drag of his cigarette, a faint smile on his face.

Although the process was somewhat thrilling.

But it was the green algae head who was frightened; what does that have to do with him?

Luffy laughed heartily, completely unconcerned.

After all, this is just normal practice.

"Haha, everyone, let's go!"

……

After leaving the town of Logue, the storm gradually subsided.

After all, the storm in Loguetown was caused by Dragon, to send Luffy off.

The natural impact will not be widespread.

Even so, Ximen Yan could still sense the dragon's power.

It is easy to create unusual weather that covers an island and the surrounding sea.

Such strength is truly admirable!

Of course, Ximen Yan was very confident that as long as he had time and ate more delicious food, he would be fine.

He will soon be able to reach or even surpass the strength of a dragon.

Afterwards, everyone shared their own experiences.

After hearing that Simon had protected the Going Merry.

Luffy extended another invitation to Simon.

"Ximen Yan, come and be my partner!"

Luffy looked at Ximen Yan with great sincerity.

The rest of the Straw Hat Pirates also looked at Simon with anticipation.

Especially Nami and Usopp, they practically dragged Simon Yan into joining them...0

After all, Ximen Yan is so strong.

They would naturally feel safer if they could join them.

After a moment of silence, Ximen Yan shook his head.

"Although it was indeed very easy and happy with you guys before."

"However, I am not actually from this world."

"I will soon return to my original world."

"..."

Although it's dangerous to go on adventures with Luffy and his crew.

But he was indeed quite happy, and he thought that such a life might be good.

Unfortunately, even though he is somewhat tempted now.

There's no way he can join the Straw Hat Pirates.

……

The Straw Hat Pirates looked at Simon in disbelief.

"W-What! Ximen Yan, you're not from this world?"

Usopp looked at Simon with a horrified expression.

"That's right!"

Ximen Yan nodded.

"Ximen Yan, are you an alien? That's so cool!"

"No wonder you can produce such delicious meat."

Luffy stared at Ximen Yan with shining eyes.

This is an alien! It's amazing.

Luffy clearly believed Simon's words.

After all, Luffy's intuition told him that Simon was not lying.

"They're from another world!"

Ximen Yan emphasized.

There are aliens in the world of One Piece too.

He's not the same person.

"Is this really version 1.0? I don't see anything special about you?"

Zoro looked at Simon with great suspicion.

Although Ximen Yan's abilities are very special.

But aliens and such are still a bit hard to believe.

Do other worlds really exist?

Sanji looked at Simon with a mixture of belief and doubt.

Nami looked Ximen Yan up and down, then revealed a disappointed expression.

"It feels completely different from what I imagined!"

"I thought aliens were the shiny, golden kind!"

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Ximen Yan's forehead.

"So you can sell it for money, right?"

Nami's money-grubbing nature is beyond saving.

"And didn't I already say they're from another world?"

Ximen Yan emphasized with a hint of helplessness.

Chapter 69 New Ideas for the Mission, Seeking Help

After more than half an hour of explanation.

The crowd finally satisfied their curiosity.

"No matter where you are after this, Ximen Yan!"

"We are all partners!"

Luffy looked at Ximen Yan with a serious expression and said.

Then he couldn't help but grin.

After all, Ximen Yan is an alien!

Having a partner like that is so cool!

As expected, One Piece needs such amazing partners.

"I haven't agreed yet, have I?"

Ximen Yan sighed, "He probably didn't agree, did he?"

"Let's throw a banquet to celebrate Ximen Yan's joining!"

Luffy shouted.

"No problem, leave it to me."

Sanji agreed very readily this time.

After all, he had bought quite a lot of ingredients beforehand.

And even if that's not enough, there's still Ximen Yan!

"Forget it, that's it!"

Ximen Yan was quite helpless.

Although he did not agree.

However, Luffy has clearly already automatically classified him as a crewmate.

"Then let's have a banquet!"

Ximen Yan smiled.

Now that he's joined, we definitely have to throw him a grand welcome banquet!

30 "Are you all idiots?! This is not the time for a banquet!"

"The navy might already be chasing us."

Nami couldn't help but yell.

They had only just left Loguetown!

If we were to hold a banquet now, wouldn't that give the navy a chance to catch up with them?

"What! We can't have a banquet?!"

Luffy looked dejected; he'd finally found a reason to hold a banquet.

Ximen Yan shrugged.

Come to think of it, Smoker seems to have been following the Straw Hat Pirates all the way into the Grand Line.

Therefore, this is definitely not a good time to hold a banquet!

"Miss Nami is right, we need to leave now. Luffy, stop thinking about having parties!"

Sanji's expression immediately changed, and he gave Luffy a good scolding.

He completely forgot that he was the first to agree.

As for his stance, Sanji's stance will always be on the side of beautiful women.

"What a hassle! I think I'll go take a nap first!"

Zoro scratched his head, looking somewhat bored.
