I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

No matter what the situation was on Deringer's side, Xie Wen and the others planned to leave Dressrosa after spending a day preparing.

Although there is still some time before the World Conference begins, both Xie Wen and the cats have become accustomed to wandering around. They would feel uncomfortable if they stayed in one place for too long.

Of course, the most important point is...

"There's still enough time, why don't we go fight Kaido?"

As soon as the Toot Toot left the port of Dressrosa, Xie Wen made the suggestion.

Although he had not been able to activate the Bushido style before, it was not entirely without gain. At least he was sure that Hawkeye's method was indeed useful.

When he had no idea, Xie Wen could still be very Buddhist, but now that he had a clear direction, he became more positive...

Just like when I was playing games in the past, when I saw achievements with clear conditions, I couldn’t help but find ways to achieve them, while I would pretend not to see those hidden achievements that were covered up.

"Eh?! Kai, Kaido?!"

Baby-5's reaction was the biggest. After being shocked by the proposal, she still mustered up the courage to swear to Xie Wen: "Don't worry, Master! Even if the enemy is the Four Emperors... I, I will fight to the death!"

Shirahoshi first looked down at the Kaido-meowen in her arms, and was confused for a few seconds before she realized which "Kaido" Xie Wen was talking about.

Then she followed closely behind Baby-5 and wailed: "Eh?! Are we going to fight that scary guy again? But, but I want to send Deringer back first..."

"Niao la la la! Although I also want to fight him, but..." Kaido shook his head with a wry smile and said very self-awarely: "I probably can't beat him now."

Hua Mei patted Xie Wen in annoyance, "Admiral, what are you doing? Isn't the most important thing for us right now to accompany our sister Shirahoshi to attend the World Conference? What if something unexpected happens and we miss the meeting?!"

Even the two little cats, Meowx and Kleemeow, seemed hesitant...

"Hmm... Klee and Jinx haven't finished their research on the 'super weapon' yet, so we don't really want to go fight that bad Kaido right now, meow."

(=w=)

The little puppet scratched his ear and explained to Xie Wen.

"The most important thing is... you have the permanent pointer of Wano Country, nya?"

(In)

Huihara Miao squinted his eyes and gave Xie Wen the final blow.

"Well... well, I took it for granted..."

Seeing that no one supported him, Xie Wen, who had been hot-headed for a moment, calmed down.

Indeed, although there seems to be plenty of time, that is Kaido after all, and God knows what will happen in the middle.

And to be honest, if he were to fight Kaido alone, it would be fine, but if he went directly to his base camp, Wano Country, Xie Wen was not very sure that he could escape unscathed...

It was a close call. I almost forgot the essential skill of stability for Monster Hunter because of my brain spasm.

Although they gave up the idea of ​​going to Wano Country to cause trouble for Kaido, Xie Wen and the others still had plenty of time, so he asked Hua Mei Miao to plan a long route that would pass through as many unfamiliar islands as possible.

No one had any objection to this proposal. After all, both Cat and Robin were very interested in exploring the new island.

Their first stop was the island where the female vice admiral named Dor and her troops, who had come to ask Xie Wen for Doflamingo, were stationed.

Since most of the G-prefix bases were destroyed by Kaido not long ago, those G-prefix bases are now being rebuilt, and the navy in the bases can only temporarily be stationed on nearby islands under their jurisdiction.

Lieutenant General Dor was no exception. She was originally the base commander of the G-14 branch, but now she could only run to this island with her subordinates to set up tents...

Well, it’s a bit of an exaggeration to say that they are setting up tents, but they are now just living in a bungalow that is no different from ordinary people.

Knowing that Xie Wen was coming, Lieutenant General Dor specially greeted them at the port and entertained Xie Wen in the small bungalow where he was temporarily stationed...the kind that Shirahashi couldn't enter.

So Xie Wen and the others didn't stay too long. They sat for a while, drank two cups of tea, and then said goodbye and left.

After that, everyone dispersed and went about their own business.

Xie Wen, like most of the time, carried two kittens on his shoulders and started walking on the island...

Only this time, there was also Baby-5 by his side.

"I feel like...he's still a good person."

After leaving the temporary base of the G-14 branch, Xie Wen rubbed his chin and commented on Lieutenant General Dor.

There are more luxurious and comfortable houses on the island, but Vice Admiral Dor did not choose to live in them. This alone is more than most of the naval forces that Xie Wen has come into contact with in recent years.

Especially for branch base leaders like Dor, who are in charge of a region like a frontier governor, many of them are similar to the kings and nobles in the pirate world, and some are even more excessive than them.

Therefore, even though they simply did not occupy the more comfortable houses in the town, it was enough to show that Dor was at least one of the navy that upholds "justice".

However, this is of no use.

No matter how much they uphold justice, when the World Government issues an order, no matter how inhumane that order is, they still have to obey it...

For example, O'Hara's demon-killing order and the human trade in the Sabaody Archipelago.

"Brother Xie Wen, are you in a bad mood?"

(=w=)

The little angel Klee sensed Xie Wen's emotions and immediately put her furry little head against his face, rubbing it gently.

The gray cat on the other shoulder also took the initiative to lean towards Xie Wen's face and made a purring sound from its throat.

Baby-5's eyes lit up, and he opened his arms and hugged Xie Wen, but was hit on the forehead by Cang Lanxing's knife.

"Just don't join in the fun!"

"Oh……"

The maid retreated unwillingly, looking at the two kittens on Xie Wen's shoulders with envy.

With the cats' healing, Xie Wen quickly put those unpleasant things behind him, hugged the two kittens in his arms, and kissed them hard.

"Hmph~ You idiot! Don't push your luck meow!"

(`へ=)

Unlike Klee who happily accepted it, the tsundere Huiyuan was obviously very happy, but she put on a disgusted expression and used her four little paws to hold Xie Wen's head...

But I didn't use any effort.

Just when Xie Wen was playing with the cats, he suddenly felt someone approaching.

"Mr. Bluestar, can I borrow a moment of your time? I have something I would like to ask you."

Appearing in front of Xie Wen was a blind old man wearing a purple kimono and wooden clogs.

With such a distinctive shape, Xie Wen naturally couldn't mistake it. It was Yixiao, the user of the gravity fruit who had not yet become an admiral of the navy.

However, Xie Wen's attention was not on him at this time, but on the ordinary-looking cane knife in his hand...

Having collected many famous swords, he is very sensitive to the aura of famous swords. The staff sword in Yixiao's hand feels similar to Hawkeye's "Black Sword·Night" and Whitebeard's "Kurokumo-Giri".

That is to say...

This thing is one of only twelve supreme swords in the world.

Xie Wen, who had read the "Famous Swords" book several times, quickly found the record about this cane sword from his memory.

"Gambler's Crossbow" is a famous sword made by the famous swordsmith Fugetsu Takasaburo from Wano Country.

Well, how should I put it?

This name really suits Yixiao's personality. Why didn't I notice this when I was reading the "Famous Swords List" before?

In addition...

Yixiao is indeed from Wano Country, but I don’t know why he doesn’t care about the affairs of Wano Country.

Just as Xie Wen fell into deep thought, Yixiao, who had come to him on his own initiative, took two steps back and hid the sword in his hand behind him.

"This sword was given to me by a good friend. I will never give it to you, even if you are one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

Xie Wen: "..."

Well, it seems that even a blind person knows that I like to collect famous swords.
