There's some kind of saying that to learn about a culture, one must sample its cuisine. However, as she was not a gourmand, the subtle hints and implications of Aqures Ixen's food was completely lost on Zojja. It was (mostly) inoffensive to her taste buds and some of it was even good. And so far, no signs of food poisoning. Therefore, she didn't have to worry about starving to death.

She (or more accurately, Kupu) had just picked up a pastry treat at a nearby stand when the sounds of a commotion reached her ears. She could pick up phrases like "he was eating too fast" and "you guys I think he's dying" caught her attention and the little asura squeezed through the crowds to see what was going on. There, she could see exactly what everyone was going on about.

Zojja didn't even know that it was possible for humans to turn that shade of blue.

It didn't seem like anyone was going to help the guy, and she figured that a dead body would be a downer at what was supposed to be a big festival. So she made her way to Luffy and raised the black mage's rod she had been given and solidly whacked him on the back.

Hopefully that would dislodge what was blocking his air passages. If not, she'd have to hit him harder.
