Titled "Soup," this Baratie chapter has Luffy, now free of his debt, beg Sanji to join his crew. The cook refuses out of loyalty to Zeff, but the other chefs secretly scheme to push him toward his dream of the All Blue.
Summary
With the Krieg Pirates gone, Gin chooses to haul his poisoned captain back toward the Grand Line despite his own failing body, leaving Sanji a parting message for Luffy. Recovering inside the Baratie, Luffy realizes his term of labor under Zeff has ended and he is free to set sail. He presses Sanji to come along as his cook, but the stubborn chef turns him down, unwilling to abandon the restaurant where Zeff acknowledged his skill, even as he speaks fondly of his dream to find the All Blue.
Key Events
At lunch the cooks needle Sanji, declaring his soup the worst they have ever tasted, and even Zeff sides with them. Stung, Sanji grabs the old man's collar, only to be punched out of the restaurant. Luffy, however, tastes the same soup, grins, and pronounces it delicious. Zeff then quietly explains the ruse to Luffy and asks him to take Sanji on the voyage so the young cook can finally chase the All Blue. Sanji, lingering outside, overhears the whole conversation.

Notes
The chapter exposes the warm intentions hidden beneath the chefs' cruelty: they want Sanji gone so he can pursue his goal rather than waste his talent at sea level. Gin departs intending to return to the Grand Line, and the Baratie staff openly urge Luffy to claim Sanji as his crew's cook. The cover features the Buggy's Crew Adventure Chronicles, where the Richie Pirates discover the Kumate tribe are cannibals.
