Zeff continues to yell at Luffy, declaring: "YOU'RE WORKING 1 YEAR AND THAT'S FINAL! GOT IT?" Luffy stubbornly refuses, shouting back: "NO! I WAITED 10 YEARS JUST TO FINALLY BECOME A PIRATE! I'M NOT WAITING ANOTHER YEAR!" Luffy insists, "ALRIGHT, IT'S SETTLED! I'LL WORK JUST 1 WEEK AND THEN YOU'LL FORGIVE ME!" Angered by Luffy's self-centered decision, Zeff delivers a powerful kick to Luffy's face, yelling: "JUST WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO DECIDE!? TAKE THIS, HEAD CHEF'S KICK OF JUSTICE!!!" Luffy is sent flying, crying out "OFU!" Zeff stands over him, pointing a finger and saying, "I'M THE ONE WHO'LL DECIDE WHETHER I FORGIVE YOU OR NOT!" Luffy sits up, rubbing his head, and Zeff remarks, "LOOK, YOU'RE PERFECTLY FINE." Luffy snaps back, "SHUT UP!" Zeff then offers a compromise: "ALRIGHT, KID.
