Sanji searches Loguetown for a rare blue-finned elephant tuna, hoping to stock the Going Merry with exceptional food before entering the Grand Line. He meets Carmen, a flamboyant chef who has considered him her rival for years despite never having met him. When only one tuna is available, a public cooking contest is arranged to decide who receives it. Carmen relies on dramatic presentation and elaborate techniques, while Sanji focuses on using every edible part of the fish and preparing a meal that suits ordinary people as well as judges. His respect for ingredients and refusal to waste food reflect the lessons he learned from starvation and from Zeff. Sanji wins, but he praises Carmen's ability and encourages her to keep improving rather than humiliating her. She accepts the defeat and renews her promise to surpass him someday. Sanji obtains the tuna and returns to the ship with supplies. Elsewhere, the other Straw Hats complete their errands while Smoker's net closes around the town. The lighthearted contest gives Sanji a chance to express his dream through cooking, but the crew's time in Loguetown is running out as enemies converge on Luffy.
