Chapter 10 Invitation
Weibull's eyes sparkled as he praised sincerely:
"Uncle, you are awesome!"
Uncle Fate laughed and said:
"Weibull, you're amazing too. This is the first time I've met someone who can eat as much as you do!"
Geer watched quietly from the side as the two began to flatter each other commercially.
Unexpectedly, Weibull suddenly turned around and said to Geer:
"Brother, let's grab the uncle on the boat. He can cook so many delicious things!"
"puff!"
Uncle Fit, who was eating and drinking with a smile on his face, spat out a mouthful of wine upon hearing this, and his drunkenness instantly disappeared.
Bi Ya nervously grabbed her father's hand. She didn't understand why these two men, who obviously didn't seem like bad people and had rescued them, and they had just had a happy meal together, now turned into bad people and wanted to take her father away from her.
Bi Ya lost her mother when she was young, and her father is her only relative!
Bi Ya held her father's hand tighter and tighter, but she didn't dare cry. The brief experience of being robbed by pirates had taught her a lesson:
Childish behavior like crying can only get you what you want from your loving parents, but from outsiders it may result in a slap in the face, a beating, or even a cold bullet!
The other girls also felt that the atmosphere on the deck had become weird, and they consciously stopped what they were doing and kept quiet. Only the youngest girl, Xiaohong, was still slurping the noodles.
In the silence, everyone looked at the black-haired boy sitting on the sofa, waiting for his speech.
...
"cough cough"
Gel cleared his throat and said with a headache:
"Haha, why are you all so serious all of a sudden?"
"Uncle Fate, although my brother is not very good at speaking, what he wants to express is indeed my idea."
"I formally invite you to join us as our ship's cook."
"Lord Gur..."
Uncle Fate thought that was indeed the case, and was about to speak when Gel continued:
"Uncle, I think it's a pity for such a young and excellent chef like you to retire and grow old in obscurity! This is a loss to the entire food industry!"
Fite really wanted to ask which unit the food industry was? He had been in the industry for almost 20 years and had never heard of it.
Gel walked to the dining table and held Fate's hand. Fate wanted to pull his hand away, but Gel held it too tightly.
I have been worrying for a long time, afraid that you two young men full of vigor and vitality would not be able to control your desires and would covet the bodies of these beautiful ladies. But I didn't expect that you two brothers would actually covet an old man like me.
Gel didn't know that there was so much drama going on in Fate's heart, he continued.
"Uncle Fate! We are so lucky to live in such a vast and magical ocean!"
“There are still so many unknown, mysterious, unheard-of, and even miraculous ingredients in this world waiting to be discovered.”
"As a chef, don't you want to explore, dig up and cook them into delicacies yourself? Don't you want to record them all and write a masterpiece to be passed down through the ages? Don't you want every person who will learn to cook in the future to have the opportunity to read a book called "Food Adventure" written by you?"
Uncle Fate, who had just seen the art of drawing big cakes for the first time, couldn't resist it. What Gel said was exactly the dream he had hidden in his heart for a long time! Fate's eyes became hot and his heart began to waver.
But when he came to his senses and saw the little hands holding his clothes tightly, his eyes became gentle and firm again. But before he could speak, he heard Gel's devilish and tempting voice again:
"Uncle Fate, I know you think it's dangerous to go out to sea. As a father, you can't abandon your young daughter and go sailing alone. So you are willing to give up your dream so that Bia can grow up safely. Alas, fatherly love is really great!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Bia's grip on Fate's hand loosened a little. She realized that she seemed to have become a burden, a burden that prevented her father from pursuing his dreams.
"Really... is that really the case?"
"Wake up, Uncle Fate. Is it really safe if you don't go out to sea? Think about your experiences over the past two days! To put it bluntly, if you weren't lucky enough to meet us today, have you ever thought about what would be waiting for you next?"
Following Gel's words, Fate became more and more scared. If they were not lucky enough to be rescued, his daughter would become a slave, bought by a noble, and tortured to death by those disgusting guys! And he could do nothing! Spend the rest of his life in regret and revenge? Or end his pain by committing suicide? Thinking of this, Fate's breathing became heavier, cold sweat broke out on his back, and his eyes became red.
"Uncle Fate, I sincerely hope that you and Bi Ya can join us. As long as you agree, we will be a family in the future."
"You have seen our strength. Ordinary pirates are no match for my brother. I dare not say that you will be absolutely safe on my ship, but I can guarantee that I will do my best to protect every one of my companions, even if it means making the whole world an enemy!"
At first, Geer was just trying to fool others with sweet words, but as he spoke, he became too immersed in the role and became emotional.
The aura on his body suddenly burst out, his clothes and hair moved without wind, and the powerful domineering aura instantly rushed straight into the sky, poking a big hole in the clouds.
Conqueror's Haki is the embodiment of strong will, and it is also a powerful personal charm that makes people want to follow it to the death. This is also one of the reasons why the owner of Conqueror's Haki has the potential to become a "king".
Gel did not release it towards the people present, so no one fainted or lost consciousness. But except for Weeble, everyone present was shocked by his bold words and was speechless. They only felt that the young man in front of them had become extremely tall.
Several girls were already staring at the camera, and passersby were successfully transformed into little fans. They wished they also had a father with excellent cooking skills.
Uncle Fate was silent for a long time, with a fierce struggle in his heart. Finally, his frown slowly relaxed, and he came to Gel with two glasses of wine. He handed Gel one glass and said solemnly:
"Then, Captain Gul will take care of my daughter and I from now on!"
After saying this, he drank the wine in the glass.
Taking the wine handed over, Gel suppressed his inner ecstasy and said with a smile:
"Haha, we are the ones who need your care! Uncle Fate and Bia will be a family from now on! You will definitely not regret the decision you made today."
After saying that, he drank the wine in one gulp.
Well, this wine is both choking and unpalatable.
Seeing Gel drinking in a very handsome manner and then frowning after drinking, everyone laughed and the atmosphere became relaxed and happy again.
The happiest one was Weibull. When he thought about having delicious food every day, he was so excited that he wanted to smash something to celebrate. However, he didn't dare to destroy the boat. In the end, he could only beat his chest like a King Kong.
