Momousagi's Visit

No matter who the others were, the moment they were touched by his Zanka no Tachi, they would be instantly vaporized into ashes by the high temperature!

Thinking of this, Haku cast his gaze outside the headquarters.

His Observation Haki even directly reached out toward the three admirals at the headquarters, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.

Of course, Haku looking at these three strongest combat powers of the headquarters so unscrupulously—whether it was Akainu, Aokiji, or Kizaru whom he had just met not long ago—they all sensed it!

And the main reason Haku looked at them like this was because he was wondering what excuse he could use to spar with these three Logia Devil Fruit users!

Now, if he wanted to quickly improve the compatibility of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, he could only do it through combat!

It was just that... Haku thought of the unique personalities of these three admirals, and felt that his idea probably wouldn't come true.

Akainu had been beaten too hard by him previously, and he had a very high prestige within the headquarters; he wouldn't necessarily fight a sparring match with him!

There was no need to even think about Aokiji; this guy believed in lazy justice. He would probably rather go to sleep than fight him!

As for Kizaru, thinking of this made Haku sigh. This guy who liked to slack off all day long—needless to say, he definitely wouldn't want to fight.

Amidst his shifting thoughts, someone suddenly knocked on Haku's door.

Huh?

He couldn't help but voice a question, because the visitor he saw through his Observation Haki was none other than Vice Admiral Momousagi.

Without time to think further, Haku stepped forward and opened his door.

The result, however, was that the beauty opposite him was handing him bags upon bags of vegetables, meat, and fruits.

"Hey? What's going on?" Haku caught all the bags in Momousagi's hands before he could even react.

Before he could do anything, Momousagi slipped past Haku's side and into his home.

Although Haku was a bit dazed by Momousagi's move, he still closed the door and turned around to put the ingredients he was holding straight into the kitchen!

"By the way, what's going on with you, Sister Gion? Why did you bring a whole bunch of ingredients to my house?" Haku, who had already put the ingredients in the kitchen, turned around and looked at Momousagi, who was already sitting on the living room sofa, asking with curiosity.

"Hey~ Haku, stop calling me Sister Gion all the time. I'm not that old." Momousagi said as if changing the subject.

Haku could tell the other person's hesitation, so he directly asked: "So you coming over shouldn't simply be because you want me to change how I address you, right?"

Momousagi could sense that Haku was clearly not someone who fell for this routine, so she honestly said: "Actually, I just ate the meal you made last time, and I simply can't forget the taste of those dishes. So... so..."

As Momousagi said this, her voice became smaller and smaller. However, Haku could still hear clearly what she was saying!

Haku smiled and said: "So it's this! I was wondering what it was. It would've been fine if you just said earlier that you wanted to eat my cooking. Tell me, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you right now."

Before Momousagi could react, Haku turned around and went straight to the kitchen.

Looking at Haku's broad back, a smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of Momousagi's mouth. She felt that if the other person were to be a partner, he would definitely be a person worth entrusting one's life to!

A dozen minutes later, Haku had made dozens of dishes. When he came to the living room carrying the dishes, he found that Momousagi had already changed into a different outfit.

Looking at Momousagi's graceful figure, Haku couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He thought to himself: Sure enough, beauties are beauties no matter where they go! Even among the Marines, they're still beauties!

After all, Haku was about to turn 18. At present, both his psychology and physiology made him easily attracted to some pretty females!

Ahem!

Haku coughed lightly, realizing he had lost his composure. Then he placed the dishes he was holding onto the coffee table. Having lived two lives, he quickly suppressed the agitation in his heart.

"All right, the dishes are complete. We can dig in now!"

Looking at the dishes before her, Momousagi's appetite was greatly stimulated. She then picked up her chopsticks and began to eat.

As for Haku, he secretly looked out the window at Garp, Vice Admiral Tsuru, and Chaton—who still looked a little jealous—and said: "You guys can all come in! I went ahead and made your portions of the meal too!"

Soon Haku's front door was opened from the outside, and Garp's hearty laughter drifted in from outside.

"Hahaha! Haku, you're still the best to Grandpa. You knew I love your cooking and specially made a few extra portions for me!"

Haku glanced at Garp, and then unceremoniously retorted: "Cut it out, old man! I made this food for Momousagi and Vice Admiral Tsuru; you're just getting it along the way!"

Garp rubbed his head and laughed: "Hahaha! Brat, it's been so many years, and you still don't give me any face at all!"

Immediately he said to Vice Admiral Tsuru beside him: "Come, come, come! Tsuru, you must have a good taste of Haku's craftsmanship this time. Aside from being able to fight, the most presentable thing this kid has is the culinary skill verified by yours truly."

Haku said sourly: "Why does listening to your tone make me feel so awkward, making it seem like the food on the table was cooked by you?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru said to Haku: "Little Haku! Sorry to bother you this time."

Haku laughed and said: "Not at all, not at all!"

In Haku's home, the one who appeared very awkward right now was Chaton himself. Because looking at the scene before him, he always felt that this meal was not being eaten very comfortably!

However, for the sake of Momousagi, he still resolutely joined in on the excitement in front of this grand feast.

And Momousagi? For some unknown reason, after Vice Admiral Tsuru came in, her whole person appeared exceptionally reserved!

After Vice Admiral Tsuru sat down opposite her, she was even flushing red, as if something of hers had been discovered by someone.

And after taking her seat, Vice Admiral Tsuru kept looking at Momousagi before her with a beaming smile.

As for the thoughts of the two women, the three big old men in Haku's home certainly didn't understand them!

After the meal, Vice Admiral Tsuru was the first to speak to Haku: "Little Haku, your culinary skill is truly superb. It's rare to eat such novel dishes."

Hearing Vice Admiral Tsuru's praise, Haku couldn't help but smile. Because this was the first time someone had praised him like this!

Hearing Vice Admiral Tsuru's words, Garp directly said with disdain: "Hump! Tsuru, saying it like that is a bit biased! Have you forgotten the old man's specialty dish 'Braised Pork Meatballs' back in the day?"

Before Vice Admiral Tsuru could react, Haku said to Garp: "Give it a rest! Old man, stop gilding your own lily. I still remember how people ended up disliking that 'Braised Pork Meatballs' you made for me back then!"
