[Edited]

Lionel woke up early in the morning and after recovering his memories of the wild night's event, he nearly bled from his nose... He suppressed his morning wood with force and turned on his side, as he saw a beautiful woman by his side, a gentle smile appeared on his face. ​​

Next to him was Makino, naked but deeply asleep, as if she was in a beautiful dream.

'Yosh! I'll cook the most delicious breakfast in the world to wake her up!'

Lionel got up quietly so as not to disturb her sleep, and went to the kitchen.

He held the knife and the frying pan in both hands, but he didn't know what to do next. He had never cooked a meal in this life, and he had no recollection of cooking from his previous life...

"Well, I can just buy it on the system store!" Lionel laughed before looking at his system. He then clicked the store and a cooking skill was presented in front of him.

[Skill: Cooking

Level: Diamond Class

Description: All abilities, recipes, and ideas of Sanji's cooking.

Price: 10000 store coin]

"What! It's so expensive! Why is it so expensive, Arya?" Lionel asked with a confused expression.

[Because the skill level is so high that it can be compared to a Saint cook. The host should know that that skills used in daily life like this are very cheap compared to combative or strategic skills]

'Huh! Why is her voice different? Oh! Maybe Arya is offline and the original system took over!" Lionel nodded as he concluded to himself before saying, "Okay… Thanks, System."

Lionel didn't think anymore and bought Sanji's cooking skills.

He wasn't in a good mood to care about anything else now.

[Ding!]

[10,000 store coins have been deducted]

[Host has 9,990 Store Coins Remaining]

Suddenly, Lionel felt a lot of knowledge and ideas about cooking invading his mind, and when this torrent of knowledge ended, he felt something else merging with his body. It was undoubtedly all of Sanji's abilities and skills!

He then bought everything he needed to make a perfect breakfast from the system store. After that, he immediately started cooking.

After he finished, several dishes that could make Luffy salvate appeared on an elegant tray.

There was Salmon with orange sauce, fish stuffed with vegetables, tuna stew with cream, and there were meat pies and delicious milk!

Fish dishes stood out amongst them, and in short, it was a very sumptuous breakfast.

He then took the breakfast tray and with slow steps, he reached the front door of their room.

"Makino, my dear~ It's already morning, come on, it's time for breakfast."

Lionel whispered and blew hot air against Makino's ear, making her shiver before she quickly opened her eyes.

She stared dazedly at Lionel's face. She couldn't comprehend her surroundings yet, but after a couple of seconds, she remembered all the memories of last night and her face turned red from embarrassment.

"Sniff! Sniff! What a delicious smell!" Makino exclaimed before looking at the tray in Lionel's hand.

"Did you ma- Mphhh~!"

After seeing this, Lionel didn't let her finish her words and took her lips for a very deep kiss and Makino made no move to resist him. It seemed as if she was really enjoying it!

"Sigh, Makino~ Your embarrassed expression looks very sexy and cute! Now, I want to fuck you again..." Lionel said after he finished kissing her before licking his lips.

"Moo~ It's too early for that! And I'm too sore right now!" Makino replied with a pout on her face.

"Haha, I'm just kidding! Here, I made this for you."

Lionel placed the sumptuous tray of dishes on the bed before sitting beside his 'wife'. He then looked at the messy room that reeked the smell of sex.

When Makinoi saw this gesture, she felt so warm that she wanted to cry! But she stopped herself, not wanting to make a pathetic appearance In front of her 'lover'.

She just silently enjoyed his caring attitude. After that, she smiled brilliantly at him before taking a bite on the breakfast Lionel made. When chewed it, the quilt covering her body magically disappeared!

'Too delicious! Is this even made by a human?!' That is what she has in mind right now.

She has now eaten the best meal she has gotten in her entire life!

"Did you cook this!? You told me that you are good at cooking, but this level of cooking… are you, perhaps, a cooking god?" Makino asked excitedly while eating the food without any manners as it was too delicious!

"For you, I will be the god of cooking!" Lionel replied with a hearty laugh before kissing her on the forehead.

"Hehe~"

Makino sweetly laughed. She couldn't believe that she could experience this kind of happiness. unbeknownst to her, the tears of happiness and relief she was holding back were now flowing smoothly on her beautiful cheeks.

———

Luffy woke up from his sleep because of the growlings of his stomach.

*Growl!*

"I'm hungry..."

After taking a careful look at Dadan to confirm that she was still asleep, he walked cautiously towards the kitchen, clearly not wanting to be caught.

*Crack!*

Luffy froze and stiffly looked at his feet. There, he saw the stick that he had accidentally stepped on and immediately panicked!

'What is a tree branch doing here?!' He thought inwardly, cursing his bad luck.

"Huh…? What's that…"

When Luffy heard that voice, he stiffly looked in the direction of Dadan and saw her slowly opening her eyes before looking straight at him.

"Huh? Luffy!? Do you want to steal the meat we stored again?!" Dadan snarled before standing up and slowly walking towards him. Her voice was so loud that it woke up the drunk men around them.

"This is Bad! Super Bad! I got caught! Why am I so unlucky so early in the morning…" Luffy hurriedly ran. He didn't know where the meat was anyway, so it would be better to get his breakfast from somewhere else.

As he ran, he heard the curses of Dandan.

"Damn you! Don't let me catch you, brat!"

"I'll catch something and take it back with me to Makino-san, and she'll do the rest." The protagonist of this world then ran into the forest.

1 hour later...

Luffy arrived at the bar that was still closed with a bull on his back!

"Sniff! This Smell! It smells so delicious! Sniff!"

Luffy was surprised by the smell and followed it! It looked like the food was so delicious that it couldn't be from this world!

The food addict knew that this was a treasure, so he left the bull that was on his back in front of the entrance of the bar before rushing at the source of the delicious smell!

His mouth was watering! He couldn't stand this smell and started imagining the source of this heavenly smell.

'Just... Just how delicious it would be to eat it?!' Luffy's eyes turned into stars, he immediately entered the bar from a high window and after entering, his eyes fell on a golden tray that had little food in it. His eyes lit up before he ran towards it and devoured it like a beast, even licking the tray clean!

"Burp~! So Delicious… Who made this heavenly food?!"

Luffy had ripped his shirt away after his cells reacted with little food on the golden tray. He wanted more and he could keep eating such food until the day he died!

"Huh! Luffy? You're early today." A soft voice brought Luffy from 9 heavens.

He then looked at the source and saw an already dressed Makino, and a handsome young man hugging each other on the bed.

"Makino-san, do you know who cooked that food that was on that tray?" Luffy wasn't bothered by this and instead asked the most important question in his mind.

"Which tray?" Makino asked with a confused expression while Lionel just watched from the sideline.

"This!"

Luffy took out the golden tray from his mouth as if it was just candy and not a metal tray that was about a meter long.

Lionel's eyelids trembled when he saw the disgusting sight.

"Oh, that? It's Lionel." She replied before covering her mouth with one hand and chuckled.

After hearing this, Luffy's eyes became even brighter.

"Shishishi! My Vice-Captain, you didn't tell me that you were this good at cooking! You're like a cooking god!"

Lionel slapped his forehead as he felt he would receive a massive headache in the future because of this idiot. He then replied with an irritated voice, which made Makino amused. "I'm not a Cooking God, I haven't reached that level yet. I'm just a Cooking Saint… and who the hell is your vice-captain?"

"A cooking saint is good enough to be my cook! Yosh! It has been decided that from now on, you will be the cook on my ship, Shishishi!" Luffy said before laughing out loud.

Black streaks appeared on Lionel's forehead as he got up and said slowly,

"Did you forget that we will fight today to decide if I am going to join you?"

"Oh! No, I certainly haven't forgotten that! How could I forget our bet?"

Lionel was suspicious of Luffy's words but didn't think much before informing him,

"Okay, let's go then! We're going to fight at the beach behind the village as I don't want to come near your grandfather's ship right now."

"Yes! let's go, My vice-captain, Shishishi!"

"I'll go with you too," Makino said with an excited expression. She was like a little girl going on her first trip.

"Sure, let's go." Lionel agreed before hugging and kissing her. He really liked who she became more feminine and lively after yesterday's wild night.

———

The sun was shining, and the sea was calm. The seagulls flew over the ocean as they pounced on the little fishes from time to time. The fresh morning wind blew on the faces of three people on the beach.

Lionel and Luffy stood facing each other on the golden sands of the beach, and Makino stood far away so as not to get hurt.

"You have to keep your word and don't forget about it! You will become the Vice-captain and the cook on my ship!" Luffy said with an excited expression on his face.

"Well, of course, I will not go back on my words. But if you lose, you will accept one order from me unconditionally." Lionel replied before knocking his fist.

"Good!

After saying this, Luffy took a fighting form before chanting,

"Gomu Gomu No - Pistol!"

Luffy's arm stretched at lightning speed towards Lionel's face with great precision.

Lionel didn't want to be embarrassed by Luffy in front of his 'wife', so he moved quickly and avoided the punch.

Boom!

The swift punch hit the ground instead of Lionel, causing a small explosion that scattered golden sand everywhere.

"You're very fast. Good reflexes, My Vice-captain!"

Luffy fixed his feet and prepared for another attack.

"Try avoiding this!"

"Gomu Gomu No - Machine Gun!"

Luffy's fist became fast and it feels like he had too many fists because of the after image made by his attacks! While Lionel just calmly avoided Luffy's every attack like walking in a park!

"Huff… Hoh... You've avoided 'machine gun' too, huh…" Luffy was smiling from excitement at this moment. He was happy to fight someone as strong as Lionel as he could fight as much as he wanted!

"Gomu Gomu No - Venice!"

"Gomu Gomu No - Whip!"

"Gomu Gomu No - Kick Stamp!"

"Gomu Gomu No - …

Luffy tried almost everything he had, but he couldn't even touch Lionel's robe.

"Huff… Huff… Huff…"

"Why are you so slippery?! Are you also a devil fruit user? Why won't you attack too?" Luffy slowly asked as he panted.

"When you're fighting someone, you'd better not ask these questions. If I intended to kill you, you would be long dead!" Lionel gave Luffy valuable advice that will save the protagonist's life in the future! He then made his move and disappeared from his position.

"Where is he?! He's too fast!!!" Luffy exclaimed while trying to find Lionel. As he tried to look at his surroundings, he felt a very sharp blade on his neck!

But Luffy didn't give up! He put his hand together with all his might, and quickly turned around and attacked Lionel.

"Gomu Gomu No - Bazooka!"

Booom!!!

The attack hit Lionel exactly in the stomach but it was Luffy who flew away from the shockwave!

Lionel does not possess haki armament yet so he could not harm Luffy even if he possessed his grandfather's physical strength.

So he bought a kairosuke glove at the store and put it on in a hurry.

While they were fighting, Makino just watched at the sideline with a lovestruck gaze!

Lionel didn't want to delay the fight any longer and Luffy knew the difference between them after he used everything he had and nothing worked, so he attacked immediately.

As he approached Luffy, he raised his hand and phantom lightning sparks appeared before quickly disappearing!

A terrible pressure descended on Luffy at this moment and it seemed as if he could see a lightning beast as tall as the sky at this moment! The rubber demon woke up inside Luffy's body and gazed at the Lightning demon before it turned Luffy's skin red and steam could be seen rising from his every pore! The steam collided with the lightning sparks and was able to partially cancel them out.

"Hmm, impressive! Did I wake up some of his potentials by putting pressure on him? Welp, that doesn't matter anyway!" Lionel shrugged his shoulders before clenching his fist.

He then sent a powerful punch that landed on Luffy's head and he was sent flying! His eyes turned white and immediately lost consciousness.

Before falling to the ground, Lionel grabbed Luffy and placed him on his shoulder before he started walking towards his 'wife'.

She was still stunned by the fight and Lionel had to kiss her to wake her up.

"Come on, let's take this idiot to rest as he has exhausted himself," Lionel said after he saw that Makino was finally back from reality.

Makino nodded silently and followed behind Lionel obediently, no one knew what she was thinking right now but if someone looked closely, there was some crystal liquid dripping on her juicy thighs!
