One Piece Chapter 44, page 19-20: The 3 Cooks
- Page 19
The customers cheer Patty on, shouting, "NICE GOING, COOK! SHOW THAT PIRATE WHO'S BOSS, PATTY!" Patty stands over the beaten, starving pirate, saying coldly, "IF YOU CAN'T PAY THE BILL, THEN YOU AIN'T NO CUSTOMER!" The pirate groans, "UGH..." as his stomach loudly rumbles. Patty mocks him, "OH? IS THAT YOUR STOMACH RUMBLING? THAT WAS... JUST ME FARTING, YOU BASTARD. SO HURRY UP... AND BRING ME SOME FOOD." Patty gets angry, yelling, "IF YOU'RE NOT A PAYING CUSTOMER, THEN GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE! THIS IS A RESTAURANT FOR PAYING CUSTOMERS! I AIN'T EVEN GONNA GIVE YOU A SINGLE BREAD CRUMB TO A BROKE-ASS PIRATE SCUM LIKE YOU!" Patty brutally kicks the pirate out of the restaurant. The pirate crashes onto the deck outside, groaning, "URGH! I'VE HAD ENOUGH...! I DON'T WANT TO INVOLVE MYSELF WITH THIS RESTAURANT ANYMORE!" Sanji watches the scene silently, blowing smoke from his cigarette.

Outside on the deck, the starving pirate lies on the floor, his stomach growling loudly: "GUURGLEEE... RUMBLE...". Inside, Patty cheerfully addresses the customers, "NOW THEN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! PLEASE ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR MEALS!" The customers applaud. Luffy watches from the doorway. Meanwhile, Sanji quietly walks out onto the deck where the starving pirate is lying. He places a hot, steaming plate of food and a glass of water in front of the pirate with a soft "CLUNK". Sanji sits down nearby, smoking, and says simply, "EAT." The pirate looks up in complete shock, his eyes wide.
