Chapter 183 Needed
Night falls, the stars twinkle, and a gentle breeze blows.
On this quiet night after leaving Tesoro, Luo Tian decided to hold a grand banquet to welcome the new members.
The kitchen was filled with delicious aromas as Baby-5 and Violet worked alongside Anna and Angie to prepare a sumptuous meal.
At this moment, Luo Tian, who was in the living room, gently pulled everyone aside and slowly spoke.
"While she's away, I'll tell you all the story of Baby-5."
Everyone sat together, their eyes fixed on Luo Tian, listening quietly.
Luo Tian sighed softly and began to tell his story.
"Baby-5 grew up in an extremely poor family. When she was born, she was not greeted with joy by her family, but was instead seen as a burden. At that time, the family could barely make ends meet, and people felt that having another mouth to feed meant another burden. She was considered a pure waste of food and a useless person."
"But what's heartbreaking is that she was cruelly abandoned by her own mother..."
At this point, a hint of reluctance and sympathy appeared in Luo Tian's eyes.
Everyone was deeply moved upon hearing this, and their hearts were filled with pity for Baby-5's plight.
Luo Tian continued.
"It is precisely because of this tragic childhood experience that Baby-5 has an extreme desire to be needed by others. Whenever someone expresses a need to her, whether it is to borrow money, propose to her romantically, or forcefully sell her a product, she will not hesitate to think that she is 'needed' and accept it gladly."
"However, precisely because of this, she is often deceived and tricked because of her simple and kind nature. But even after suffering countless hurts, she still maintains that heart that longs to be needed."
After hearing this story, everyone present fell into deep thought, feeling deeply saddened by Baby-5's origins.
At the same time, I secretly resolved to give this new friend more care and support, so that she could feel true warmth and belonging.
"So please, please stop misunderstanding me, okay? My relationship with her is completely innocent; there's absolutely nothing improper between us!"
Luo Tian explained with a face full of grievance.
However, his words did not convince the crowd.
"Hmph, stop making excuses! Then tell me, is this really your reason for going to such lengths to trick her onto the ship? And the other two, if you're so capable, explain them clearly all at once!"
Yamato stared intently at Luo Tian, as if he wanted to devour him alive with his eyes.
Before Yamato could finish speaking, he waved his hand behind him without any politeness and shouted loudly.
"Enel, Yan, what are you standing there for? Give this jungler a good beating for this lying bastard!"
Upon hearing Yamato's command, Enel and En, who had been sitting to the side, immediately stood up, rubbing their hands together, eager to try.
Just as they were about to attack Luo Tian, Luo Tian calmly raised one hand and gently waved it, instantly enveloping Yamato with a mysterious power.
In an instant, Yamato was as if he had been frozen in place, unable to move.
Enel and Yan, who had just gotten up, looked at each other in bewilderment upon seeing this scene. After hesitating for a while, they obediently sat back down in their original seats.
Seeing this, Luo Tian shook his head helplessly and continued.
"Everyone, don't rush into action. Let's think this through. Doflamingo is dead, and the Donquixote Family he led is essentially defunct. In this situation, where can a few weak and helpless women go? Are we just going to leave them to fend for themselves on the streets?"
At this point, Luo Tian let out a long sigh, his face full of worry.
Luo Tian used Baby-5's background to cover up how he tricked Violet and Sugar onto the ship.
After all, Violet and Sugar were both coerced and lured by Luo Tian himself, unlike Baby-5 who was easy to fool.
After everyone heard this, a brief silence fell over the room.
Everyone wore a thoughtful expression, clearly indicating that they had a clear understanding and assessment of the current situation.
They were well aware that they had already developed irreconcilable conflicts with Doflamingo long before.
From that time on, the relationship between the two was like a taut bowstring, ready to snap at any moment.
Previously, Doflamingo had been meticulously searching for their whereabouts, intending to take Luo Tian's life, which undoubtedly made the already tense situation even more dangerous.
Everyone knew that if Doflamingo continued to act recklessly, it would pose a huge threat and hidden danger to the entire team.
Just then, Anna walked out of the kitchen with a smile on her face, clapping her hands lightly as she called out loudly.
"Dinner's ready! Everyone, come and eat!"
Upon hearing the call, everyone stood up and walked towards the restaurant together, chatting and laughing.
Before leaving, Luo Tian smiled and waved his hand, and a mysterious power quietly emerged, instantly removing the immobilization spell from Yamato's body.
After being immobilized for a long time, Yamato was finally able to move her body again. She first stretched her limbs, then glared angrily at Luo Tian, muttering some complaints.
However, when she strode into the restaurant and saw the dazzling array of delicious food laid out on the table, all her resentment seemed to vanish instantly.
Yamato's eyes widened, his gaze fixed on the delicious-looking and fragrant dishes, and a trickle of saliva unconsciously dripped from the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, she no longer cared about being immobilized by Luo Tian; all she wanted to do was to enjoy a hearty meal.
So she rushed to the dining table, plopped down, grabbed her chopsticks, and began to wolf down her food.
Meanwhile, others gradually took their seats around the dining table.
They gazed at the sumptuous meal before them and couldn't help but praise it.
Most of these dishes were carefully prepared by Baby-5 and Violet, as the two had just joined and wanted to make a good impression on everyone.
As everyone savored the delicious food, they praised the two chefs' superb culinary skills, creating a particularly harmonious and pleasant atmosphere.
Before long, Baby-5 and Violet were immersed in the joyful and warm atmosphere, enjoying the sumptuous dinner to the fullest.
