takoyaki.
[name] had only one and she gave no comment on it, but the rest of her crew had fallen in love with hachi's special takoyaki which he was making. sanji also beat duval's face into a rather handsome one earlier after franky revealed sunny's secret weapon, she gave no comment to it.
wrapped up in a new set of bandages and all dried up, she watched as her crewmates (mainly luffy) had giant bellies, hunger satisfied from the delicious takoyaki. camie kept offering her more, but she accepted them for her sake and shoved them in chopper's mouth behind her back.

[name] holds her head down, remaining silent while also listening in.
"people cross the red line on foot? what about their ships?" chopper asks.
"everyone leaves their ship behind and buys a similar one on the other side," pappagu answers.
"they leave their ships behind!?" franky growls, grinding his teeth.
