Here, keep eating and recover your strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several strong men were flattered, took them cautiously, and wolfed them down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eat slowly, don't choke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zeff laughed and brought out several bowls of hot soup. \"If it’s not enough, there’s more. With me here, no one will go hungry!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you... thank you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn't speak anymore, eating while silently weeping and sobbing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How long has it been?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How long has it been since they were treated as \"people\"?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano watched silently for a while, then suddenly let out a long breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn this shitty world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had long since passed the stage of \"when poor, cultivate one's own virtue\" and was steadily moving toward the level of \"benefiting the world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s continue sailing; one day, he would be able to rely on his own fists to change this world from top to bottom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there was one more thing right in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano’s gaze shifted, sweeping over the group of survivors huddled in the corner, his expression gradually becoming indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chief culprits were removed, but the accomplices were still there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these people, there were ordinary sailors who were powerless to resist, passengers who didn't know the truth, but there were also those lackeys of the nobles and wealthy merchants, or accomplices who colluded with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't good at distinguishing these.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the ship, there happened to be someone who was a professional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano turned his head, his gaze falling on Smoker, raising his chin slightly and giving a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smoker, biting his cigar, narrowed his eyes and immediately understood the boss’s meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch, troublesome business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He muttered in a low voice, but stood up without hesitation and walked toward the group of survivors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before joining the *Rakumu*, he was from the Marine Headquarters elite camp; he had learned everything—interrogation, screening, dealing with prisoners—he was very familiar with these jobs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano also withdrew his gaze. He was relieved to leave this matter to Smoker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this incident, the originally planned barbecue banquet would have to be postponed to another day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano didn't stay on the deck for long. After filling his stomach, he went straight into the cabin, headed to the training room, and continued to vent fiercely against the Poneglyph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, early morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were only about twenty survivors left on the ship. As for where the others went, it was obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These sailors or passengers who were not accomplices basically had some pocket money, so there was no need to worry too much. They thanked Siano’s group profusely and prepared to leave on their own when they reached the next island, trying to find a way back to their hometowns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was those few rescued slaves who seemed to have other ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm? What is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano, who had just finished breakfast, turned his head in surprise, looking at the strong men who had taken the initiative to come to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several strong men exchanged glances, and one of them gritted his teeth: \"Lord Siano, we... want to follow you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes! We are willing to follow you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are strong and can work. Although we might not be able to help with fighting, you can leave all the chores on the ship to us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Follow me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strong man in the middle nodded heavily. \"Our hometown has been destroyed, and our relatives are all... Now, except for this life, we have nothing left.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s better to follow you, my lord. Even if we die for you, we won't regret it. It’s better than becoming slaves!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano’s gaze swept over the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them were sturdy and had determined eyes, clearly used to hardship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As choresmen on the ship, they were indeed very qualified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano shook his head. \"I can feel your intentions, but I cannot agree. Following me is too dangerous.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were a real big pirate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would probably be eager to have such a group of loyal, free laborers join.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the intensity of the subsequent adventures was something these people couldn't bear, it wouldn't matter; at worst, they could be treated as expendable materials, and a new batch could be recruited after they died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't a cold-blooded guy to that extent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the World Government’s attention to the Rakumu Adventure Group had increased. If they faced each other head-on again, the enemy’s formation would only become more powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Letting these ordinary people who couldn't even beat low-level Marines board the ship was no different from telling them to go die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His plan wouldn't change easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crew of the *Rakumu* followed an absolute elite route, imitating the flawless \"Iron Wall Emperor Group\" model of Red-Haired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If someone wanted to board the ship but couldn't even beat Nami, the non-combatant on the ship, then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strong men lowered their heads. Although they knew in their hearts that joining wouldn't be easy and boarding the ship had life risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But being rejected directly, their expressions were inevitably a bit dim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, hey, hey, why are you all looking so down! Although your past lives were ruined by those scum, now that you’ve regained your freedom, there are countless possibilities to start a new life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano looked at the disappointed expressions of the strong men, his tone softened a bit, and he said with a smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My ship isn't suitable for you, but I will give you a sum of money, enough for you to settle down on the next island, and then...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no need, my lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several strong men waved their hands in a hurry, moved to the point where their eyes were slightly red by Siano:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have hands and feet; we can earn it ourselves!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leading strong man took a deep breath and nodded heavily:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have already helped us twice. If we continue to trouble you and take your money, what kind of men would we be!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although we aren't as strong as you, we still have strength!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At worst, we’ll go to the pier to carry bags, go to the tavern to do chores, we can always support ourselves!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing this determined attitude, Siano was silent for a while, laughed out loud, and patted them on the shoulders one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems he didn't save the wrong people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are all good men on the sea!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After another two days and two nights of sailing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the morning of the third day, the next mysterious island pointed to by the Eternal Pose finally appeared in view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a medium-sized island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking from afar, many merchant ships were docked at the port, the town buildings were well-arranged, and pedestrians were coming and going on the streets, which was quite lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On both sides of the road extending from the pier to the town, there were various shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking from afar, it seemed that most of them were restaurants. The sea breeze blew, bringing a rich aroma of food, making people unable to help but have a great appetite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\"Pukie Welcomes You\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it actually Pukie?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zeff looked at the huge sign at the entrance of the port and raised an eyebrow in surprise. \"It’s not quite the situation I expected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such a familiar name...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami recalled, suddenly clapped her hands, her eyes showing surprise. \"I remember! So it’s this city! When I was a child, I saw it in the books my brother bought for me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a very famous city of gourmet food in the entire Grand Line!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at the distant town with anticipation, repeating the description she saw in the picture book back then:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The whole island is like it’s piled up with desserts, chocolate waterfalls pour down from the cliffs, cream forests stretch and undulate, the chefs at the port are extremely enthusiastic, and will even provide free cakes to guests from all over... Eh? Why does it seem like none of it matches?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pukie Island in front of her, although the port was prosperous and the streets were clean, compared to the dreamy gourmet paradise described in the book, the gap was too big.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, this is clearly just a very ordinary town. The picture books are indeed all lying to children!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami waved her right fist angrily and turned her head. \"Uncle Zeff, do you also feel that it doesn't live up to its reputation and that you were deceived by this fame?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, quite the opposite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zeff shook his head. \"This former gourmet city did indeed have the kind of glory described in the picture book, but before I first ventured into the Grand Line, I heard that since the opening of the Great Pirate Era, this town has been on a popular route and has long been harassed and looted by pirates. And because there was no Marine branch stationed nearby, it became dilapidated in just a few years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zeff looked around, watching the busy scene at the port today, a flash of contemplation in his eyes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The reason I’m surprised is completely different from yours. I don't know what the reason is, but this town has actually recovered to such a degree today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although it can't compare to its heyday, it’s much better than the dilapidated look of the past few years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\" Nami also held her chin, thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano stood to the side, his gaze sweeping over the port, and suddenly noticed that the ships docked at the pier seemed to be in some commotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many merchant ships were hurriedly weighing anchor, and even the few pirate ships that were originally parked in the middle position were hurriedly retreating to both sides, making way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems they recognized our flag.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siano shrugged, a little helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his \"notoriety\" increases step by step, I’m afraid he will have to get used to this in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>",2461,"2026-06-17T09:11:17.866Z","2026-06-18T03:30:09.135Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","278ef3de4a8eb481d4f17a1278dd9fe70c028f7d9ecb36eb39f7e6e836a6458a","one-piece-starting-with-picking-up-shanks-severe-chapter-120","one-piece-starting-with-picking-up-shanks-severe-chapter-118",139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-starting-with-shanks-severed-arm-cover.jpg"]
