Eight folding screens painted with waves separated the entrance from the banquet hall, while attendants continually brought in fine food and wine.

After Komurasaki finished playing "Moon Princess," she came down to entertain the guests, and several geisha went up to dance.

The establishment Kyoshiro ran was one of the finest in Wano Country. The women who performed there might not have been paragons of virtue, but they were nothing like the flashy girls in the chaotic pleasure district.

Lina and the others ate, drank, and chatted.

Just then, the door behind the screens was yanked open with a bang, and several plainly dressed attendants rushed in, flustered.

"Something terrible has happened, Lady Komurasaki!"

"The shogun is here!"

The attendants immediately dropped to their knees, their faces anxious.

"We sincerely apologize, honored guests!"

"For your safety, please hurry and escape through the back door while you still can!"

"Shogun Orochi?" Komurasaki's eyes widened in surprise.

The others were puzzled, and a little annoyed by this interruption.

"Who's that? Why should we run? We're enjoying our meal."

Luffy, sitting near the door, scratched his head, stood up with his hands on his hips, and shook his head.

"I'm not going."

"You're not?!" the attendants and geisha exclaimed, dumbfounded. They quickly tried to explain again.

"M-my apologies, sir, but I said the shogun is here."

For a business, it was only natural to avoid a fight on the premises. They didn't dare defy Orochi, but they didn't want him causing trouble, either.

"So what if he's here? We can share some of our food with him. That should be fine, right?"

Luffy sat back down, grabbed more food, and stuffed it into his mouth. He gave the attendants a reassuring look and mumbled,

"Don't worry. We've got money to pay for it."
