Chapter 785 Sanji (20)
"Come with us?"
"Food therapy?"
"Yes." Yun Ci stood in front of the tall white beard and said solemnly, "I have also heard about Ace. You must go to rescue him. My captain... Luffy will definitely go too. I want to help."
Marco held a stack of wanted posters in his hand and raised them towards Yun Ci.
"But, you are not on these wanted posters, so we can't confirm your identity."
"Indeed... I can't prove that I'm a member of the Straw Hat Pirates." Yun Ci looked at Marco, without any emotion in her eyes, "But, even if I don't go with you, I will still go to the battlefield."
She handed the dietary therapy records to Marco and said, "This encounter was just a coincidence. In order to increase our chances of victory, I am willing to treat Captain Whitebeard's body. If you cannot trust me, I will not force you."
Marco looked into Yun Ci's eyes quietly, his serious expression suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and scratched the back of his head twice.
"Well, what do you say, Dad?"
"Gulala, let's go together!" Whitebeard put the wine flask on the boat with a bang. "Food is easier to swallow than those bitter medicines."
The white-bearded man lowered his eyes and looked at Yun Ci, with undisguised kindness in his eyes.
"Just stay on the boat."
Yun Ci leaned forward gracefully and said, "Sorry to bother you for the rest of the time. Also, I hope Captain Whitebeard won't eat anything other than the food I've prepared."
"Where's the wine?"
"I will provide you with medicinal wine suitable for drinking."
"Well, if there's wine to drink..."
Then nothing matters.

Given the current status of the Whitebeard Pirates, all parties have intelligence personnel observing their actions.
In order to leave the New World, Whitebeard went to the Navy Headquarters, Marineford, the place of execution declared by the Navy, and annihilated the twenty-three Navy ships that were monitoring him.
The Whitebeard Pirates and their forty-three pirate ships from the 'New World' were all dispatched.
Yun Ci stood beside the tall pot, and from time to time, took out some strangely shaped ingredients from the vortex beside her and threw them into the pot.
"So, you also think this is a trap?"
Marco sat on a stool nearby and took a bite of pineapple.
"It is clear."
Everyone in this ocean knows Whitebeard's style of doing things.
Having captured the 'son' whom he regarded as a family member, it was impossible for Whitebeard to remain silent.
"Besides, that's the Navy's home turf, and we don't know what traps are waiting for us..."
Yun Ci glanced at Marco who was still in the habit of eating the pineapple with the skin on. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, but she didn't say anything.
The main reason why Marco stayed by her side was to monitor her.
As the ship's doctor, Marco is very knowledgeable about the world's herbs, and is well suited to monitoring Yunci, who claims to be treating Whitebeard with 'diet therapy' to heal his body.
However, it is already the seventh day, and Whitebeard's complexion has visibly improved. It seems that this surveillance is coming to an end.
Yunci turned down the heat, put the lid on, and let it simmer slowly.
"Okay, it's stewed just in time for dinner." Yun Ci clapped her hands and walked into the cabin without looking back, "Well, I'm going to rest."
There is currently no proper chef on this ship.
It’s not that Whitebeard couldn’t be found, but after Thatch’s death, no one was in the mood to add new companions to the ship.
The chefs currently cooking on the ship are the team of chefs who used to work for Sachi. Although their cooking skills are not as good as Sachi's, they... have a lot of familiar flavors.
It wasn't very tasty though.
On the third day after Yunci's arrival, White Beard suggested that the chef team help Yunci.
Yun Ci could tell what his intention was at a glance, and it seemed that Whitebeard didn't want to hide his purpose.
Well, these are the main forces for the future anyway, so adjusting them together can actually increase the chances of winning.
What's more, there are many chefs to help, so Yunci doesn't have to do everything by herself.
Marco looked at Yunci's back and took the last bite of the pineapple.
"Marco."
"Ah, it's Joz." Marco leaned there lazily, "What's the matter?"
"Haven't you found any information about that Straw Hat Pirates woman yet?"
Marco scratched his head again. "To be honest, there isn't much information."
The Straw Hat Pirates were making a lot of noise, but the little girl named Yun Ci was very low-key. His people went to the places where the Straw Hat Pirates appeared to inquire, but they didn't have much impression of Yun Ci.
"So, she might be lying?"
"No, Dad's health is obviously improving."
Qiao Zi scratched his head: "Then..."
"You can trust them for now." Marco threw the pineapple's head into the sea and said, "Besides, didn't the Straw Hat Pirates just have a fight in Shampoo Land not long ago? It just so happens... we're almost there--"
"——Ahh, I actually forgot."
The Whitebeard Pirates participated in the war at the top, but they went underwater!
During this period of time, the only one who could coat their ship was Pluto Rayleigh in Shampoo!
It was all in vain.
However, there are some benefits to going there early.
Whitebeard is in good health, and judging by his current condition, their chances of successfully rescuing Ace and evacuating together are as high as 70%.
'Om—'
The huge ship slowly stopped.
Yun Ci stood on the familiar boat, looking at the familiar scene in front of her, listening to Marco's speech, and was in a trance for a moment.
But it was only for a moment.
"We are going to sail under the sea next. Remember to prepare the supplies for this period in advance." Marco took a bag of berries and put it in Yunci's hand, "Here, these are for you."
The bag was not very heavy, and in addition to coins, there were also quite a few banknotes in it.
"I have most of the things you need, all you have to do is buy more ingredients."
"These ingredients are usually purchased by Thatch...ah, our former ship's doctor. I don't really know much about them."
"Then leave it to the chefs..."
"You are their foreman now."
"Temporary, temporary foreman."
"Well, anything is fine. Anyway, I'll leave the food supply to you."
Yun Ci no longer refused.
Not long after the ship docked, the figure of Pluto Rayleigh appeared on the shore.
"Oh? Isn't this the Straw Hat Boy's companion? How come you are..."
"Mr. Rayleigh." Yun Ci greeted politely, "I will follow Captain Whitebeard's ship to the Navy Headquarters next."
"Ah, you're going to help the Straw Hat Kid..." Rayleigh smiled, unable to tell what his emotions were, "Well, if it's you, then it's okay to join in."
This little girl is the only one that Rayleigh cannot see through.
Maybe she has some abilities that they don't know about.
Rayleigh suddenly felt that there was still a possibility of victory.
