"You know what? I'll call you later." Zoro cuts off the call. He didn't get the confirmation that he wants, so fuck it. The most important thing is to get his stomach full. He'll think about other things afterwards.

"Wai-

Zoro ended the call. He cracked his neck. He see few stalls down the road. But it didn't suit his liking. He really is craving for noodles right now. So he wanted some noodles for lunch. He take a walk down the road.

Everyone seems to eye on him particularly. He didn't mind the stares even though he could feel it piercing him. The buildings filled the streets with a lot of children running around. The town seems to enjoying their moments of peace.

Zoro he gets lost again but he ignored it. As the more important matter for him is that he's hungry as fuck. He'll deal with other things later. After he done with his lunch, he'll think about it. The weather is pretty fine for him.

*Sniff*

"What's that smell? It smells pretty good." Zoro thought. He followed where the smell came from, and it lead him to a small shop. A small ramen shop that has an unassuming appearance. Well, I guess this is where I'm going to eat.

"Ichiraku Ramen? Really?" Zoro recite the name of the shop. Well I don't care what kind of silly name they put on their shop. As long as it's good, I'll pay for it. He thought. It's not everyday you meet a shop named "Ramen is the best pleasure"

Without thinking much about it, he immediately go to the shop and took a seat. It seems that he's the only customer here. The shop is seemed to be managed by a pair of father and daughter. 

"Ah, welcome!" A slender girl with long, dark brown hair and large black eyes, plus fair skin greeted Zoro the moment he took a seat. She approaches Zoro. While her father is busy managing the kitchen.

"What would you like?" She wears a white robe with the sleeves folded, a sort of dark blue apron with ribbon ties at the top and a bright white bandanna. She asks Zoro what would he like to order with a smile on her face.

"Ramen." Zoro answered with a blank look on his face. 

"Uhh...can you be more specific? What kind of topping would you like? How big is the serving that you prefer?" Ayame ask Zoro to be more specific with his order.

"Give me the biggest serving you could and throw every single topping that you guys had. Every single topping." Zoro repeats twice, highlighting that he really wants every single topping that Ichiraku Ramen had to offer.

"All right! One large bowl of ramen, coming up!" Ayame wrote it down over a piece of paper before going back to the kitchen to inform her father of the order.

"Wait." Zoro told Ayame to wait. 

"What is it?" She turned around.

"Make 30 of those as a starter." Ayame froze in her spot. She is in disbelief of what she just heard.

"Pardon me?" She asks again, wanting a confirmation. I must've misheard him. She though that she simply misheard Zoro.

"Did I stutter?" Zoro tilted his head and raised his eyebrows.

"O-okay! Wait for a minute okay?" Ayame rushed to the kitchen to inform her father, Teuchi of the news. Of course, the owner is also shocked by this. After he heard  the news he is also shocked by this. He goes outside to meet Zoro.

"You're the one who ordered 30 large bowls of ramen?" He asks Zoro.

"As a starter. Remember that." Zoro reminded Teuchi that he just about to get started. Teuchi took that as a challenge. He wanted to see could Zoro finished all of it.

"I'll tell you what if you could beat the champion of ramen eating contest, I'll hang a picture of you here as the new champion!" Tecuhi told Zoro if he could break the champion's record, he will be crowned the new champion.

"In addition to that, you don't have to pay for it! But if you lose, you know what to do!" Teuchi adds the offer by saying that Zoro didn't need to pay for it at all.

"What's the champion's record?" Zoro asked how much did the champion had eaten ramen in only one sitting.

"46 bowls in one sitting! She's known as the queen of gluttony!" Teuchi answered the question. Zoro smiled. Oh, it wasn't that much? I could break it. 

"I'll took on the challenge!" Zoro agreed to take on the challenge. 

"You better finish all of this!!" A shout could be heard all the way from the kitchen. Zoro grinned. From how the owner shouts, it's clear that he really is preparing all the ramen as fast as he could. Zoro patiently waited for his ramen.

*Thunk*

"Here's five bowls first! It's going to take some time to prepare all of this!" Teuchi served Zoro 15 bowls of ramen as a starter. He's going to be busy in the kitchen. Zoro looked at the bowl of ramen.

He smiled. Every single topping that they got. The ramen looks very appetizing right now. Especially when he's really hungry for some ramen. There's chashu, which is thinly sliced braised pork and kakuni that is counterpart of chashu since they are sliced thickly. They are marinated in sugar, soy sauce, green onions and sake.

There's Niku soboro which is flavored ground beef that is fried, It is seasoned with soy sauce and sugar. In addition to that, two marinated ramen egg is also served together. Seasoned egg whites with succulent egg yolk.

It is also served with chopped green onions and corn. With butter to make the ramen more smooth. Zoro requested for mountain of bean sprouts too. And the most signature topping in ramen, which is narutomaki. It is type of processed seafood created by steaming various pureed and deboned white fish.

Zoro took a sip of the broth first. It is a very delicate broth. The taste meet with his tastebuds. He loved the broth. Using chopsticks, he slurp the noodles alongside some chashu. The fatty pork really suits his liking.

*Fwoosh!*

"Seconds!" Before Teuchi could run straight to the kitchen, Zoro asked for seconds. Teuchi turned around and is shocked to find all five bowls of ramen is empty without anything is being left. I was about to leave! He already finished it?!

"I like it. Seconds." Zoro requested for more servings. Teuchi dashed towards the kitchen with his daughter's help to prepare all of the ramen. 

*Tap*

*Tap*

*Tap*

Teuchi ran towards Zoro holding another tray with more ramen on it. Zoro smiled. 4 more bowls of ramen appeared in his face. Teuchi took the empty bowl with him to be washed later. Who know that he could eat for free?
