I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

The main core techniques of Fish-Man Karate and Fish-Man Ju-Jitsu, apart from the way of exerting force in fighting skills, the most important one is actually the skill of controlling water.

As for the moves called "Three Thousand Tiles Punch" and "Five Thousand Tiles Hand Knife", they are actually just simple descriptions of the amount of force output. Apart from that, they are just ordinary punches and hand knives.

Therefore, Jinbei's teaching to Shirahoshi did not last too long. After she had mastered all the core skills, Jinbei, who did not intend to go to Nine Snake Island with her, also said goodbye and left first...

He didn't even ask Xie Wen for a boat, he just jumped into the water and swam away.

After Jinbei left, Xie Wen and his crew did not stay on Ruskaina Island for long. They boarded the Toot-Too Go-Forward and headed southeast towards Nine Snake Island.

The distance between Nine Snake Island and Ruskaina Island is not far, and the Calm Belt does not have the messy climate interference of the Grand Line. As for the Sea Kings...

With White Star on board, that was the least of their worries.

So, after the Dudu had been traveling in normal form for more than ten minutes, Xie Wen and his companions could already see the existence of the Nine Snake Island with their naked eyes. As the Dudu gradually approached, the huge sculpture of nine snakes on the island and the words "Nine Snakes" carved on the stone wall became clearly visible.

As the Toot Toot approached, the Nine Snakes Island also dispatched several warships, including Boa Hancock's Perfume Serpent...

Well, it doesn't look like he wants to communicate properly with them.

"I say... you haven't contacted your subordinates until now, have you?"

Xie Wen looked at the group of pirate ships coming towards him aggressively, and looked at Boa Hancock next to him with helplessness.

"Humph! Didn't I tell you long ago? I didn't bring Den Den Mushi!"

Hancock responded confidently.

If you didn't bring your Den Den Mushi, wouldn't you ask me to borrow one?!

Xie Wen rolled his eyes but didn't complain out loud. After all, he already knew how willful this troublesome woman was, so even if he said something, she wouldn't admit her mistake. He simply didn't bother to do that.

Because Hancock was on the ship, and her height and appearance were very eye-catching, when the Nine Snakes' ship approached, they quickly realized that it was a misunderstanding and did not have any conflict with Xie Wen and the others.

"Royal sister! Are you okay?!"

Hancock's two sisters jumped onto the Toot-Too Advance immediately and began to ask about her well-being.

The Nine Snakes fleet was stationed on both sides of the Dudu, surrounding her as she continued to sail towards the Nine Snakes Island.

After briefly explaining the situation to her two sisters, Hancock did not return to her pirate ship, but continued to stay on the Toot Toot. Only after they arrived at Nine Snake Island did she take Robin's arm and take her off the ship.

"Men are not welcome on Nine Snake Island, so you can only move around in this area."

Hancock gestured on the shore and emphasized to Xie Wen again.

Xie Wen didn't care, but he pointed at Sanji-nyan beside him and asked, "What about them?"

The other little male cats are easy to deal with, but Sanji needs to dig up special ingredients on Nine Snake Island.

Hancock glanced at the cats and said without thinking, "They are not related."

"That's fine."

Xie Wen patted the heads of the cats around him and said to them, "In that case, you should follow Robin in and have some fun."

"Hehe~Keli has no interest in that bad woman's country! It's better for her to stay here with Brother Xie Wen and Duduhao, meow!"

(=w=)

The little doll decisively hugged Xie Wen's head and rubbed it hard, but her big, bright eyes couldn't help but glance towards the island.

Seeing Klee's insincere expression, Xie Wen scratched her chin with amusement and relief, and advised: "Okay, if you want to go out and play, go ahead. We are here anyway, and you can come back anytime when you are done."

Under Xie Wen's persuasion, the little puppet, who actually wanted to go to Amazon Lily to play, finally followed his inner thoughts and followed Robin and Hua Mei Miao to the interior of Nine Snake Island.

However, Xie Wen was not left here alone, because the cats Meow Juro, Xiaermi, and Meowerya were really not interested in entering the island, and they all chose to stay on the Dudu.

[Huh! Those outsiders have finally left, meow!]

(=`=)

As soon as Hancock and other members of the Nine Snakes disappeared from the sight of Xie Wen and his men, the Dudu, which had been holding back for a long time, immediately and impatiently crawled out from the deck, and then skillfully climbed onto Xie Wen's head.

Xie Wen raised his hand and fiddled with her ear, then said, "Actually, you can try to appear in front of other people. It's not something shameful."

[No way! ]

(`w≡`w)

Duduhao shook his head like a rattle, [I'm not interested in meeting those strangers meow! ]

"If you don't want to show up, forget it. I'm just worried that you'll be a little lonely if you always have to hide." Xie Wen didn't force it. He scratched the ear of the Toot and changed the subject, saying, "Then let's go up to the sky first and finish mapping this island."

[I won’t be lonely, meow! Listening to you guys chatting, watching Xiao Ai and Purya doing experiments are all very interesting, meow! Before I didn’t show up, I used this to pass the time, meow~]

While explaining, Dudu controlled its body to switch to the form of a floating dragon, and then carried Xie Wen and the others into the sky.

……

"Snake, Snake Princess! Look up at the sky!"

Such a large ship flying into the sky would naturally attract the attention of others. The Nine Snakes warrior who first noticed this immediately reported it to Hancock.

Hancock had seen the floating dragon form of the Toot before, and had even ridden on the navy's copycat Sky Comet Dragon, so she remained very calm.

"Don't make a fuss." She glanced at the Toot in the sky and waved to her subordinates, "As long as they don't force their way into the city, there's no need to worry about it."

Although Hancock didn't understand what Xie Wen was planning to do, she had already planned to improve her relationship with the investigation team, so as long as Xie Wen didn't do anything excessive, she wouldn't bother.

Of course, the main reason was that she knew that even if all the warriors of Nine Snake Island rushed forward, they would be unable to do anything to Xie Wen and the others, so even if she was dissatisfied in her heart, she could only hold it in.
