Bab 36: Chapter 36: Play ‘That’ Song
Third Person's PoV:
[As the System was saying, the System is equipped with a Music Function. The songs are all recorded from the Host's memory, so any song the Host wishes can be played.]
The system explained with a positive attitude, it was as if the system did not notice the host's pain at all.
'Okay. So how does it work anyway?' Josh asked.
[Unless the Host specify, the music will originate from the Host. In a closed room like this, the system recommends the Host to specify the sound to originate inside the room.]
'Yeah, I know. Otherwise, they'll all look at me as if I'm a living soundbox.' Josh chuckled mentally. His earlier feelings were long gone. He couldn't help but let go of his anger when he hears the innocent sounding voice of the system.
[The Host can even have his own BGM, this is how cool the system is. The Host must be thankful and worship the system from now on.]
Just when Josh's impression on the System was getting a bit better, it just had to go and ruin it as if the system knew that it's Host no longer hated it.
'Who the hell needs a shitty background music!?' Josh roared indignantly. If the system had a corporeal body, it would surely get a hundred slaps for it's comments.
[Haven't the Host ever read that one novel? The protagonist had a system that gave him BGM. Doesn't the Host want to be like him?]
The system asked innocently. Although it's voice sounded mature, it was as if the system truly had the brain of a child.
'You mean that one Chinese novel...what was it called. 'Grabbed By The System'?' Josh also momentarily forgot about his feelings as he responded.
[I believe it is called 'Seized By The System'.]
'Well..whatever. I don't need BGM. Just play 'that' song.' Josh irritatedly commanded.
[The Host does realize that the System doesn't know what the Host means by 'that' song, right?]
The system responded in a confused tone.
'Just play it!' Josh was getting a headache from all of this back and forth comedy skit with the system.
[If the Host says so...]
With that, a music started playing. It came from all over the room, making one unable to tell it's exact point of origin.
When sounds suddenly started coming from all over the dining room of the Merry, many were startled.
Raising his head, Usopp asked a question, "what's going on!?"
The man was startled by the sudden upbeat music that was ringing from all over the Merry. If one listened intently, it would sound like it came from a direction. Yet, the moment one thinks it's from a certain direction, it would change. This, however, didn't change the overall volume of the music at all.
"Don't mind it. The atmosphere was getting awkward so I decided to put on some music." Josh said with a confident smile. He just took all of the credits for the system's work.
As if sensing that it's Host was being unfair, the lyrics started playing...
"Jingle bells, jingle bells..~ Jingle all the way~...."
"What the fuk are you doing!?" Josh shouted. He just claimed that the music was his doing and now it turned into a Christmas song. He felt incredibly embarrassed.
[The System does not know what the Host means by 'that' song...]
'I wish you were still the idiot that couldn't talk back...sigh..I meant 'Sunflower' by Post Malone. Now stop, we're not caroling!'
Just as Josh was done commanding the system and the song was starting to roll around, Sanji finally came out of the kitchen.
With a bemused smile on his face, he had dishes upon dishes stacked on his hands and even on top of his head. Gently, Sanji put the massive array of food on to the table. Sanji went back into the kitchen and brought out even more food, the number of dishes this time was not at all inferior to before.
With the table fully stuffed with food to the point of Josh not being able to even place his hands on the table without accidentally touching them, Sanji finally stopped.
Josh was actually amazed that Luffy didn't grab any of Sanji's dishes while he was carrying them over, but instead he waited impatiently. Waited being the most important thing here.
As soon as Sanji sat down right beside Nami, Luffy couldn't help himself anymore.
"Itadakimasu!!"
With drool all over his lower jaw, Luffy clapped his hands together and called out. After that, the banquet became a battlefield!
Luffy stuffed food in his mouth and swallowed within less than one second! Everyone else tried their best to get a portion for themselves.
Mihawk on the other hand was calmly enjoying a richly roasted steak. Whenever Luffy's literal outstretched hand came near his food, a massive amount of killing intent would pour out from him and Luffy had no choice but to retreat meekly.
"You guys are making too much noise.." a deep but lazy voice slowly said from near the door.
"Zoro!! *bite* You're *glug glug* awake too. *gulp* This is great! *munch munch* We're having a *rip* banquet. *crack*" Luffy said while eating fervently. A piece of meat never strayed far from his mouth the entire time.
'Oh right, the stupid wine.' Josh suddenly remembered his promise to Mihawk. He got up from his seat and went out on the deck after greeting Zoro.
After an instantaneous flash of light that went unnoticed by everyone, Josh came back into the room. The only difference was the thing he was holding. In Josh's hand is a crate. Opening it up, Josh carefully removed 5 unassuming bottles from the crate and handed it to Mihawk.
Hawkeye silently took them and put them somewhere inside his clothes. There wasn't even a change in his outlook after he put them there.
Josh distributed the remaining bottles equally among everyone.
This was the day that the Strawhats enjoyed a banquet with bountiful and delicious food, overwhelmingly good wine, whilst listening to 'Sunflower' on repeat.

HaremQueen These couple of chapters might be boring for some of you. As someone might put it, they are “fillers”. I still think it’s important for me to write crew bonding times and system and host interactions. They’ll be the foundation of my story. Things will start happening after this chapter I think...maybe a bit of an info dump will be on the way. Fair warning.
