Good took the newspaper, a smile spreading across his face.
"Sanji!"
"What?"
Sanji looked wary.
He had only boarded the Groudon because he needed to return to the Sabaody Archipelago to reunite with his companions. Otherwise, he would have sneaked away long ago.
His male intuition told him that Good was extremely dangerous.
Good slapped the newspaper against Sanji's face.
"Read it yourself."
"Luffy?"
Sanji took the newspaper and was startled.
The newspaper carried news of Luffy. Just two days ago, Luffy had arrived at Marine Headquarters and rung the Ox Bell.
He seemed to be mourning Ace.
But this was not something Luffy would do. The 3D2Y on his arm made Sanji realize what Luffy was trying to tell them.
Their reunion had been pushed back from the agreed three days to two years!
"Luffy, I'm just glad you're all right."
His anxious heart finally settled. Since Luffy had sent them a message about their reunion, it meant he had pulled through the news of his brother's death.
"All right, I've decided!"
Sanji's eyes blazed.
"I'm settling down here! I'll go to Sabaody in two years!"
"Thump!"
A fist slammed into Sanji's head, knocking him flat.
Smoke rose from Good's fist as he cursed, his face dark with exasperation. "Can't you think about anything else? Can staying here make you stronger?"
"Of course it can!"
Sanji sprang to his feet, blood trickling from his nostrils.
"Beautiful women are a man's greatest motivation to move forward!"
"..."
There was no saving this guy.
Good pressed a hand to his forehead helplessly.
He wanted to bring Sanji back to the fortress and train him as the head of logistics. The kid really did have a talent for cooking, and he could also grow into a top-tier fighter.
