Screen 1 — "The Floating Restaurant"
The Straw Hat crew — Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, and Ben — sail up to the massive sea restaurant, Baratie.
Ben's eyes widen. "This place is awesome!"
Usopp nods proudly. "Yup, world-famous. Best food on the seas!"
Moments later, Luffy accidentally breaks part of the ship.
Zeff, the old head chef, glares. "You're paying for that!"
Luffy sweats. "How!?"
Zeff tosses him an apron. "You're working here until it's fixed!"
Ben laughs. "From pirate to waiter — nice career change."
Luffy pouts. "It's not funny!"

Screen 2 — "The Cook and the Gentleman"
While Luffy scrubs dishes, Sanji, the sharp-tongued cook, serves up plates with style. He feeds anyone who's hungry — even strangers who can't pay.
Zeff, once the feared pirate 'Red-Leg Zeff,' watches silently.
Sanji sets a steaming plate in front of Ben. "Chili fries, huh? Try these."
Ben takes a bite and finishes the whole dish in ten minutes. "Amazing. You're a genius."
Sanji smirks. "Of course."
Later, Sanji spots Nami and immediately turns into a gentleman. "For you, my beautiful lady—"
Ben sighs. "He's lovesick already."
Suddenly, a massive, broken warship approaches. Don Krieg, the self-proclaimed strongest man in East Blue, staggers aboard, demanding food and control of the Baratie.
Sanji refuses to let anyone starve and feeds him anyway.
Ben frowns. "You really trust this guy?"
Before anyone can respond, a sword slash cuts the sea in half — Dracule Mihawk appears.
He defeats Zoro in seconds.
Zoro falls, bleeding but proud. "I'll never lose again… not to you, not to anyone."
Ben transforms into XLR8, races across the water, and carries Zoro back to the Baratie in seconds.
Mihawk glances at him. "Fast… very fast."

Screen 3 — "Hero Time vs. Don Krieg"
Don Krieg recovers and threatens to take over the restaurant.
Luffy steps up. "You're not taking anything."
Ben smirks. "Hero time— or I guess, pirate time."
Round 1 — Intimidation
Krieg brags about his strength, firing poison gas bombs.
Ben transforms — FLASH! "Big Chill!"
He freezes the gas in midair.
Luffy smashes Krieg's armor with a Gomu Gomu no Pistol, denting it.
Krieg's men panic. "That monster froze our gas!"
---
Round 2 — Luffy vs. Krieg
Luffy dodges a barrage of weapons and counters with Gomu Gomu no Gatling.
Ben studies the metal armor. "Too durable. Need more power."
---
Round 3 — Four Arms Joins the Fight
Ben slaps the Omnitrix. FLASH! "Four Arms!"
The deck shakes as he catches Krieg's spiked spear and snaps it in two.
He tosses Krieg across the deck with one arm.
Luffy grins. "Nice throw!"
Four Arms: "Told you— weak under pressure."
---
Round 4 — The Final Explosion
Krieg activates his last weapon — the Explosive Battle Jacket.
Ben switches again — FLASH! "Diamondhead!"
He forms a crystal wall, shielding everyone from the explosions.
Sanji stares. "That's insane defense…"
When the smoke clears, Krieg wobbles, barely standing.
Luffy leaps up — Gomu Gomu no Bazooka!
Ben fires a crystal shard burst at the same time.
BOOM!
Krieg is blown straight into the ocean, armor shattered.
Zeff smirks. "Guess we're safe again."
Sanji lights a cigarette. "You two are monsters."
Ben reverts to normal. "Nah. Heroes on break."
Ben points at him. "You're strong. You should join us."
Sanji: "Not a chance."
Luffy: "You'll change your mind!"
---
Screen 4 — "The Cook of the Sea Joins"
Later that night, Sanji thinks about Luffy's words and Zeff's dream of seeing the All Blue, the ocean where every fish meets.
He walks to the dock. "Luffy, Ben… take me with you. I'll find the All Blue."
Luffy grins. "Welcome aboard, cook!"
Ben laughs. "Finally — a chef who can actually fight and make great food."
Zoro crosses his arms. "Good. Maybe he can feed Luffy enough to shut him up."
The Straw Hats sail off together, the Going Merry cutting through the waves toward their next island.
Ben stretches his arms. "New ship, new crewmate… I'm loving this adventure."
