Chapter 5: The Bird that stopped in Baratie
Part II
His black eyes looked towards Jackie the Sparrow seriously. He had barely heard of her, not that she was not interesting or something but what would he care about some childish girl pirate? Well apparently for 'Red-Leg' Zeff destiny had found the decision to amuse him a bit. Not only was he actually feeding some pack of ingrates that those two damn brats had managed to give them a free meal but now he will be serving probably one of the few Pirates near to reach the title 'Super-Nova'. The only reason she probably didn't have it was due to all those rumors of how she was linked to the Marines somehow.
The man stood taller than Musashi, about half-head head taller. Dressed in white cook's robes, a blue scarf on his neck, a long golden mustache being long enough to be able to make braids to it, on his chin he had a golden strong beard and on his head he had a titanic long hat that almost reached the roof and instead of his left leg he had a peg leg. Zeff walked out of the crowd to stand face to face to the childish girl pirate "Once again, how can I be sure you mean no harm?" he stated seriously.
Jackie smirked "Zeff, please if I was planning to attack I wouldn't brought only one man would I?" she teased with a smile.
Zeff only cursed eyeing the girl from top to bottom, reading her slowly.
"In fact Zeff, just as a token of good will, I am more than willing to pay my entrance fee." Jackie smirked while looking straight into the cookers eyes.
Zeff touched his mustache seriously and looked towards his cooks "Prepare her a table!" he commanded.
"But Owner Zeff?! She is a pirate!!" Patty exclaimed looking towards his boss "This will bring bad reputation to the restaurant!!"
Zeff turned towards Patty "She has already established she means us no harm and she wants to eat!" he commanded and then looked back to Jackie "I expect you to keep your word Sparrow."
Jackie only smiled "I will only eat and I will leave Zeff, I don't wish to make any enemies today." she said with a light bow.
Zeff only nodded towards her and began walking back up the stairs towards the kitchen. Only taking a small moment to have a glimpse of the freeloaders that where feeding on his coin thanks to those useless cooks. To his astonishment they seemed oblivious of what had just happened with Jackie or they had the amazing ability to ignore their surroundings. And they ate faster than anything he had ever seen in his life, in fact he was really wondering if he should kick them out or allow them to finish the rest of his provisions, he made a mental note to order new ingredients today.
Zeff now stood on the kitchen surrounded by few of the cooks looking at him with questioning eyes "Now, we have a customer to deal with, why I don't see anybody taking her order?" he asked between sarcasm and seriousness.
Carne took a step from the crowd of cooks to confront Zeff "Owner Zeff, we don't mean any disrespect but…but…but" Carne muttered under his breath nervously.
"There is no way we can allow her to eat here!! Owner Zeff!!" cried Patty angrily while pointing towards the stairs that lead to the main dinning hall.
Zeff only looked towards his staff with a serious face and closed his eyes "We are cooks. Our job is to cook for those who are hungry regardless of who or what they are…" as he opened his eyes again "With that in mind I order you to take her order!!" he commanded.
There was a silence among the cooks surrounding Zeff till one talked "Ummm Owner Zeff? I will deal with this client if you don't mind?" Patch asked while taking a step to face Zeff.
Zeff looked towards Patch seriously and tensed his eyes a bit while he got up and walked another set of stairs that led upwards looking towards Patch seriously without saying a word disappearing upstairs.
Patch only smiled "Thanks Owner Zeff…" he muttered to himself while he began to walk towards the stairs that lead to the kitchen.
"Stop there Patch!!" Patty said while standing before Patch "You are not serious are you?" he asked seriously.
Patch smiled lightly towards Patty "It's just a customer Patty." He said carelessly "Nothing to worry about."
"A customer my…" Patty never finished as he was interrupted.
"Oi, Oi, Oi Patty." Sanji said while touching his shoulder "It's just a customer don't worry." he said seriously.
"Useless cook, it's not any!!" Patty tried to complain.
"You heard the old man Patty…" Sanji continued seriously till he gave a light smile "It's only a customer."
Patty only looked confused towards Sanji and then to Patch that was already walking the stairs with a notebook in hand. His hand was already back in it's place.
On the dinning hall the show continued for the customers from the table were Haze at her vacuum-eating speed was devouring whatever the cooks brought into the table while the others protected their food without parole from Haze's constant tries to grab their food. Even Kuryu was concentrating trying to deflect Haze's hands that moved at an unimaginable speed thru out the table trying to rob the others food.
Jackie seemed to be ignoring the whole situation and was looking towards One-Eye "So who are you waiting for One-Eye?" she asked with a light smile "It's rare from you to have a request."
One-Eye turned towards his Captain with his only eye in sight "Just someone milady…" he said seriously.
Jackie eyed One-Eye carefully "Come on One-Eye! How much time have you been traveling with us?" she teased, "When you will trust us?"
One-Eye looked at her giving a light nod "More than enough…" he answered.
Jackie only sighted "A man of small words you are…" she said giving up as she turned towards the whole commotion was happening "And what's with all the commotion over there?!" she exclaimed to open air.
"Please don't mind them…" said Patch appearing besides both Jackie and One-Eye "And what will you have today?" he asked with his best smile.
Jackie turned towards Patch giving a light evil smirk "Ohhh someone finally has the balls to come to the table." she said evilly while opening the menu "Well dog, I will have the Lobster Special and some wine…"
"Nice choice Miss!" Patch smiled happily "Any specific wine I can offer you?"
"Anything that is strong enough for me dog…" Jackie continued mockingly looking towards Patch with a smirk.
Patch only nodded with a smile towards Jackie and then turned towards One-Eye "And for you sir?"
One-Eye looked towards Patch and then back to nothingness "Nothing for now…" he said seriously.
"Ahhhh come on you will at least join me on eating something?!" Jackie teased childishly.
One-Eye looked towards Jackie and then back to nothingness and sighted.
"Hey!! What was that?!?" Jackie now complained a bit pissed but still childishly "It's that the manners you show to your Captain?! Hey!!"
Patch sweat-dropped at the group before with a nervous smile "What is today?! How bizarre things can get!!" he thought to himself while he began to move away from the table "I will be back with your order in a few moments Miss…" he said with a nervous smile.
One-Eye looked towards her and sighted once again then turning back towards nothingness.
"HEY!! What is with that sight?!" Jackie continued complaining now almost getting into the table "Continue like this and I will tie you to the mast till the sun rises at 12 of midnight!!"
One-Eye looked towards Jackie as he eye twitched a bit "Sorry to tell you milady but…" he said seriously while taking a pause.
"But What?!?" Jackie exclaimed while tensing her eyes.
"That will be rather impossible to happen, it will defy natural laws…" he answered seriously while sweat-dropping "By so I will be tied to the mast forever, making me useless…"
"That is the whole point you damn idiot!!!" Jackie shouted towards One-Eye exasperated, as she touched her forehead while sighting in defeat "What it is wrong with you…"
One-Eye only looked towards Jackie seriously and then turned back once again towards nothingness.
"WANT ME TO TELEPORT YOU TO THE SUN YOU DAMN IDIOT?!" Jackie now cursed angrily towards One-eye while tensing her fist exasperated.
"Sorry milady but…" One-Eye was interrupted.
"DON'T SAY IT!!" Jackie snapped him, while she gave a big sight and took a sip of the glass of water she had on her side "You really are strange…"
One-Eye only continue with his gaze towards nothingness without even changing his facial expression even for a second while looking towards his surroundings with his only seeable eye.
Patch walked from the table still sweat-dropping at the whole situation that was taking place on the restaurant still wondering why the day he had decided to waiter around, the situation had gotten so out of hand. While he watched the free meal table devour everything that touched their table without even taking a break to only smile at the situation "No man deserves to be left to die of hunger…" he said to himself while he walked towards the freeloader's table "Everything all right?" he asked with his best smile.
Kuryu was the first one to turn towards Patch "Of course and thanks for the free meal, really you shouldn't had!" he said smiling cheerfully.
Patch looked towards the monk with a light smile "It's my pleasure to help you!" he said with a light smile.
Kuryu kept looking straight into Patch, as if looking for something till he came back to his plate "You are too kind Patch…too kind." He said with a light smile.
Patch looked confused towards the Monk and then only smiled "Thanks, is the least I could do." He answered.
Kuryu eyed Patch once again and continued his meal while keeping his thought to himself and at the same time he continued his struggle to be able to at least eat something. This was because even with Haze's three full meal order she still insisted on having a taste on others food even if it was the same food.
"Stop it you damn speed-devil!!" complained Li while Haze grabbed one of her meatballs.
"But I haven't done anything?!" Haze complained while her hand grabbed without even realizing a lobster of a plate and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Elina looked towards Haze with a light smirk and an evil smile "Anything?! You have already emptied the table three times!!!" she exclaimed sarcastically.
Musashi on the other hand only ate peacefully while laughing lightly at the situation at hand at the same time protecting his food from Haze's freighting hunger. His eyes thou looked from time to time to the table of the two newcomers.
"You noticed bastard?" Li asked in a low voice while she ate a piece of meat looking towards Haze.
"Yes…How dangerous is she?" he asked seriously.
"Enough to make doubt to try to attack her bastard…" Li asked seriously.
"The other…" he asked again.
"Never seen him…" she answered while she took the plate avoiding Haze's stealing hand.
"Stop it you damn brat!!" shouted angrily Elina towards Haze who was now eating a rice bowl that had belong to the monk.
Kuryu kept looking towards Haze with a nervous smile wondering still how the Demon Fruit Energy user was able to do all this and still claim that she wasn't doing anything no wonder they acted towards as if she was just a mere child.
Elina only slapped her forehead frustrated at the situation at hand and what worried her most that she was getting used to it and she was sure this was not good at all for her health "How do I always manage to handle this?" she sighted.
"Come on Goddess of the Sun its fun isn't it?" Kuryu said smiling lightly.
"Fun?! How can you call this fun idiot, not even when eating can I have a peace of mind!!" Elina shouted exasperated to Kuryu while she grabbed her coke before a pink energy silhouette could take it "And you ungrateful brat touch my Cola and you will see what true terror is….oh you will." She menaced evilly.
Haze looked towards Elina with a scared face "Elina-nee-sama is very scary!!" she cried while she took out another rice ball from a plate without even noticing what she was grabbing.
Li only sweat-dropped while she looked towards the table of the two newcomers from time to time, wondering what was "The Sparrow" doing all the way to one of the Blues's while she took a sip from her glass of water "Damn it…"
"No Goddess of Fire, she is not scary at all!! Is the passion that is escaping for her being longing to be on the true path!!" Kuryu exclaimed exaggeratingly.
Haze looked with big wide eyes towards Kuryu "Wwwwweally Speaking-number-guy-san!?!" she said smiling brightly.
"Yes!! She must be shown the true path!! To let go all of that energy!!" Kuryu continued.
"Yessss!! Elina-oba-san, did you hear?! We can solve your scariness!!" Haze exclaimed to Elina with her titanic smile.
"Oba-san?!?" Elina twitched her eye-brow in anger "I think I will bestow a path upon you both of pure terror and pain…" her voice seemed to make even the waiters around her tremble in fear.
Musashi kept on laughing lightly while having his meal, observing the two guests constantly. The man was the one who got his attention since he arrived the man kept looking around as if looking for something, for Musashi something just didn't seem to fit here not to mention of the girl, who after the show of her power he began to evaluate her as a more dangerous threat "What brings you here? You are too far from your master…" he muttered.
The speed he moved his hands thru the cooking tablet was amazing, people could barely notice that the man was cutting vegetables in tiny pieces and to assure the flavor he barely left them on the tablet, as soon as they where ready he filled them into a pot of boiling water. The man smiled at what he was doing and he did it graciously, dressed in blue suit that didn't even had a spot of dirt or any type of food loss on it, he worked impeccable. This was Sanji area of specialty and there was nothing he enjoyed more than cooking for a brother.
"Hey Patch, the order for table 6 is ready!!" shouted Sanji while he threw up into the sky a boiled lobster and some rice, while it landed on a plate in a perfect fashion and ready to be served.
Patch walked towards Sanji's working place and smiled "Come on! Send it I will catch it!" he cried out enthusiastically.
Sanji looked towards Patch and smiled "Later Patch we are still missing some practice." he said lightly "After the turn I promise we will practice the catching and throwing, all right?"
Patch smiled back towards Sanji "Come on!! Just once, let me prove I can hold it!" he exclaimed and readied flexing his knees like if waiting for something.
Sanji looked towards Patch eyes, then plate before him and last towards his hands grabbing the plate. He only sighted while placing it slowly into Patch's hands slowly and smiled to his friend "Soon Patch I promise but you have to be patient. Now lets get that order going!!" Sanji cried enthusiastically.
Patch only smiled lightly towards his friend and looked at the plate "Yeah you are right." he said lightly "Probably I need more practice." As he finished the sentence he began to walk towards the stairs that lead to the main dinning hall.
Sanji observed how his friend began to walk the stairs towards and turned his face down while lighting up a cigarette and smoking a bit of it while sighting "I am sorry Patch…" he said while he breath the smoke out of his mouth "But I cannot tell when you will be ready…"
Patch walked down the stairs while he looked towards his hand that held the plate with the lobster. He kept smiling looking at his hand that trembled, just for a moment but it trembled as he said to himself "Don't worry, we will work it out…" he muttered to himself while he continued to walk the stairs.
Patch reached the dinning hall where the commotion was now divided by the table of the freeloaders and the two pirates as he smiled "Really what day is it…" he said lightly as he walked towards the table of the pirates.
Haze continue eating at her inhuman speed with a titanic smile on her face as a new fragrance entered her nose, nothing escaped her senses even if she admitted she was a bit clumsy and her attention span could barely keep up with her speed but when it came to food, well she was the master of it and this new smell, well only one thing popped in her little mind "Must Have It!!" and her hazel eyes now turned towards where the smell was located, a plate with a lobster and it was on the waiters hand and it was "Cool-strange-bizzare-ability-guy" he was nice, he wouldn't mind giving it to her right?
Patch walked towards the table of Jackie and the other man, he walked with his smile like he always did. While he was getting near the table and looked towards the two pirates that were talking about something while he took his mind back to the job at hand, there will be time to think out of more….
"This is amazingly good Cool-strange-bizzare-ability-guy!!" shouted Haze at the top of her lungs with the lobster in her hand and eating with incredible delight standing between Patch and the two pirates.
Patch looked towards the red haired girl in disbelief, for now two things where on his mind right now: How had she gotten here so fast from the table and How was she able not to notice this was not her meal?!? "What are you doing?!" he shouted a bit panicked.
Haze turned towards Patch with a puzzled face "Eating, what you cannot see it Cool-strange-bizzare-ability-guy?" she asked shyly.
Patch smiled nervously "I know that but why?!"
Haze continued looking puzzled towards Patch "Because its delicious!!" she continued while having another bite from the lobster.
Patch couldn't help but to tense his smile even more looking towards the Speed Devil Fruit user that continued to devour the lobster at her hearts content, his mind just asked himself "What's wrong with this people?!" he asked himself in frustration as his eyes now looked behind Haze "Damn it…" he cursed.
"May I ask what type of little pouch dares to take my food?" the voice of Jackie sarcastic and icy echoed the dinning hall while she stood behind Haze looking towards the girl with an evil smile.
Haze turned towards Jackie looking from top to bottom towards the girl while having another bite from the lobster "Pouch? Are you blind Angry-looking-girl-san? I am a girl, beautiful as one can be!" she exclaimed happily towards Jackie.
Jackie's eye brow twitched while she looked towards Haze with a light smirk "Blind….You want me to turn you blind you damn ingrate!!" she shouted towards Haze while pulling a dagger from her pants.
"Captain I must agree with her, she is a girl…" One-Eye said from the table with his expressionless face and voice looking towards Jackie and Haze.
"You shut up you damn idiot!!" Jackie continued shouting now towards
"But Captain…" One-Eye began once again just to be interrupted.
"Want me to teleport you to Impel Down?!" she shouted once again towards One-Eye with fist closed.
One-Eye only sighted without even changing the expression on his face and continued looking towards nothingness with his only seeable eye while adjusting his hat.
"Sorry for this Miss she didn't mean to do it.." said Kuryu smiling while standing already besides Haze "She is only a kid as you can see."
Jackie looked towards the monk with a smirk "Not good enough dog, not good enough…." She said in her sadistic voice while licking her blade a bit "The little pouch requires to be lecture in some manners dog, so if you excuse me…" she said while she walked towards eating Haze and launched herself towards her with blade ready.
Kuryu only sighted "Ohhhh well…." somehow by now knowing the outcome of the following act.
Jackie smirked evilly while she awaited for her knife to pierce the girls hands where she was pointing right now yet before she could actually make any damage the girl suddenly disappeared in front of her eyes leaving only a silhouette behind her of a pink color making Jackie only pass by with her dagger without even hitting an object.
"That was dangerous Angry-looking-girl-san!!" Haze complained now standing behind Jackie with an annoyed face while having another bit from the lobster.
"Now, Now Miss Jackie is just an annoying brat…" commented Li while she walked towards the commotion in a light voice "Allow us to invite you the meal and we can call this off shall we?"
Jackie regained her cool as her eyes now turned towards Li with a light smirk "Another dog…a dangerous one I must add." She added with a smirk of disgust while she turned towards Haze with a serious look on her face "Hey pouch, what's your name?"
Haze looked towards Jackie with an annoyed face "Haze, why?" she said with her girly voice a bit annoyed over Angry-looking-girl-san.
"Just because….you just saved me a lot of work annoying pouch…" she said smiling while opening her hand and as she did this in Haze's hands a circle of pink light appeared and disappeared as fast as it came but now in Haze's hands she was handcuffed.
Haze now looked surprised towards Jackie "What, are we playing another game??" she asked curiously while looking at the handcuffs.
Jackie only twitched her eye brow in desperation "You damn annoying pouch…" she cursed and once again looked towards Haze with an evil smirk "Yes pouch, you can call it "Deathly Tag" and right now I am IT…" she said smirking.
Haze looked towards the handcuffs and trembled, she recognized this feeling, deep within her memories she had felt this before, as she began to feel how strength was being sucked out of her and she knew it, this was no game….this was "Musashi-nii…" she never finished the sentence as she passed out.
Jackie only placed her foot over Haze's body "Kairōseki Cuffs (Seastone) they just never fail do they…" she said smirking now looking towards the group behind her "I feel sorry for the girl thou….I wonder what has she done too…"
Jackie never finished as she watched how now Musashi was launching towards her at full speed with fist closed, his face cold and serious looking straight towards his target. No smirk, he concentrated on his target while he was getting closer and closer towards her.
"Monster!!" shouted Elina while she had watched the events transpire, knowing full well who they where confronting and it was not a laughing matter, they required a plan but as always Musashi just didn't seem to understand the words "control yourself."
"Damn bastard…" Li just cursed while she began to take out her blade and preparing for battle, in her mind she just thought of how to manage this, they were going against the Sparrow, one of the few pirates with a low rank to actually make the Marines tremble at her feet.
Kuryu looked towards Musashi angrily. It didn't matter if she held Haze hostage he knew perfectly that the punch from the bastard will be more than enough to kill the girl, he felt her strength and even with her ability he had witnessed she still was nothing more than a mere human "Pedophilic-idiot…" he cursed while he prepared to intercept Musashi.
Patch watched what was transpiring before him speechless, he didn't understand this at all. One thing was for sure people will get hurt and he had to do something about it, now, he had to avoid any unnecessary deaths or people hurts…
"Oni no (Demon)…slash…" the cold emotionless voice echoed thru the dinning hall, behind Musashi One-Eye stood with his sword just a little bit out of the scabbard, his black overcoat moved thru the air as he stood there with his expressionless face and as soon as he finished putting the blade back to the scabbard Musashi's air momentum ended.
Musashi knew pain but probably for once in a long time he felt true pain, his body felt like if a tidal waves made out of fire had just barrage thru his body, as he screamed in pain. From his body thousands if not a uncountable number of slashes began to appear and from them blood which sprinkled to the floor and before anybody could realize Musashi felled down to the floor bleeding with his head down not even moving, as blood moved thru the floor from Musashi's body.
Jackie smirked "As annoying you may be…so useful are you One-Eye." she said in her sadistic smile while he opened her hand and below her and Haze a pink hole opened and both began to fell down into it as she smiled towards One-Eye "Finish this, I will be waiting on the ship…" and as soon as both finished entering the hole on the ground the pink hole disappeared.
The whole group now turned towards One-Eye that stood there emotionless in full height looking at his surrounding with his only seeable eye "You don't want this to continue…" he said emotionlessly while putting his hand on the hilt of his blade.
Li greeted her "You fucking…." She cursed and before any other could act she launched herself towards One-Eye that by now was turning towards Li emotionless. Li moved the slash towards One-Eye just to observe how he evaded it with ease not even worried about it. Her eyes tensed and she trembled as she watched how the man prepared his blade to slash her, she wouldn't make it and she cursed herself for it.
"MOVE!!!" Patch shouted at the top of his lungs and before Li could realized what was happening Patch had taken her place, as he looked at her smiling. The smile was short lived as One-Eye's attack made contact, barely visible to the human eye and Patch received it and cut him in half as his body now divided felled down to the ground.
One-Eye once again stood up and looked towards the new two pieces of body that lied on the floor while he adjusted his hat and looked towards the rest "If you continue this, none of you will survive…"
