I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

As the Dudu Sea Dragon dived into the deep sea, Xie Wen and his companions once again returned to Fishman Island with ease.

Just like last time, King Neptune and the three princes were waiting at the entrance of Fishman Island early, and this time Jinbe was there too.

When Xie Wen saw White Star coming down from the Toot Toot in good condition, he could clearly feel that King Neptune and Shark Star were secretly relieved.

Tsk! It just means that everyone thinks it’s no fun to repeat the prank that has already been played.

Xie Wen curled his lips, and soon revealed a smile that showed he was enjoying a good show.

because……

Isn’t there other “good news” waiting for King Neptune?

There was no need for Xie Wen to guide them specifically. After returning to Ryugu City with King Neptune and the others, Bai Xing took the initiative to push Deringer in front of her father and brothers, and talked incessantly about her new friend.

Even though Xie Wen did nothing, the expressions on the faces of King Neptune and others changed from the initial relieved smiles to vigilance.

What's more, how could Cang Lanxing, who just wanted to have fun, not get involved?

So, Xie Wen found an appropriate opportunity and said indifferently:

"Yeah, yeah, that kid doesn't even pay any attention to our cute cat. He only likes to be with Shirahoshi."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only King Neptune and the three Neptune brothers, but even Jinbei and the ministers on the side changed their expressions instantly.

They have seen the kind and lovely Shirahoshi grow up. To the high-ranking officials of the Ryugu Kingdom, she is no different from their own daughter.

The three Neptune brothers immediately surrounded them "enthusiastically" and quietly separated Deringer and White Star.

"Are you a half-merfolk stranded outside? This is rare. After all, most humans are not very friendly to us merfolk... You must be having a hard time out there, right?"

Although he disliked this guy who coveted his sister, the Neptune family was too kind, so Xie Wen did not see the scene he expected.

Shark Star even asked about Deringer's past with concern, and took the initiative to comfort him: "You can rest assured when you arrive at Fishman Island. There will be no discrimination against your half-fish identity here."

The concern shown by the three princes was not false. Deringer, who had already undergone some changes under the influence of Shirahoshi, was naturally touched after feeling this.

However, his feeling of being touched did not last for a while, as he heard Shark Star say again: "So, you probably don't understand Murloc Karate and Murloc Jiu-Jitsu. This won't do. In the next period of time, the three of us brothers will teach you our Murloc's own way of fighting!"

After saying that, the three Neptune brothers carried Deringer, who hadn’t yet realized what was happening, and left quickly.

"Father, did I say something wrong just now? Why do you seem a little angry?"

Shirahoshi, who also didn't understand what was going on, was confused and added fuel to the fire for Derringer, saying, "Derringer has really started to get better, and he is the same age as me. In fact, he hasn't done too many wrong things with Doflamingo."

"The three princes haven't taught many people, so I should go and help them. Besides, that boy was a pirate before, so he should have a lot in common with Aladdin and the others."

Jinbei said to King Neptune in a serious tone, and then he chased after the three Neptune brothers.

"Eh eh eh?!"

Bai Xing's mind became even more confused. Why didn't everyone calm down, but instead became even angrier?

Meowth, who was sitting on top of her head, couldn't stand it anymore, so the little blue cat patted Whitebeard's head with his paw and interrupted the mermaid princess who was about to say something with a helpless look on her face.

"Just shut up now. If you keep talking, that idiot Deringer will really be killed by you, meow."

(In)

"how so……"

Shirahoshi is not stupid. Although she hasn't figured out the specific reason yet, she can still see the general cause and effect relationship, so she can only pout in grievance, and then look at her father with a resentful face, who seems to be suffering from some kind of illness.

As a qualified daughter slave, King Neptune immediately panicked and did not bother to entertain guests like Xie Wen. He quickly jumped in front of Shirahoshi and started to coax her in a gentle voice.

Although it was a little different from what Xie Wen expected, this kind of family comedy was quite entertaining to watch, so he naturally had no objection. He leisurely continued to watch the show while petting the cat, eating the food prepared by the fish people.

……

There is still some time before the start of the World Conference. In addition to wandering around Fishman Island, Xie Wen and the cats also go to the Sabaody Archipelago to play from time to time.

In fact, the people of the Chabaoti Archipelago did not welcome Xie Wen's arrival very much, because every time he came, the business on the island would be affected.

Not only would some cautious pirates choose to leave as soon as possible, but those industries related to slavery would also suffer huge losses.

Although Joker had been killed by him, on the day the news spread, other people immediately took over and continued to maintain the secret slave trade. Not to mention that the human auction house in the Sabaody Archipelago had the support of the Celestial Dragons, so the slave business here was hardly affected by Doflamingo's death.

But Xie Wen's arrival was completely different. Although he did not want to ally with the World Government for the time being and could not take action against the auction house, he would not be soft on those slave traders, and the Celestial Dragons would not care about their lives.

The slave traders who knew this would naturally not be foolish enough to stay here and wait to die. After knowing that Xie Wen was coming this way, they all ran outside and hid, just like last time.

If Xie Wen wants to deal with them, he can only find an opportunity to use the Dudu Sky Comet Dragon to launch a surprise attack in the future. However, if the root cause is not solved, the effect of doing so will actually be no different from now. Anyway, after he kills them, someone will immediately replace them.

So after knowing that the slave traders had left again, Xie Wen felt very calm.

Apart from the group of slave traders, Rayleigh was still not on the island this time. It was unknown whether he had really never come back as Xia Qi said, or whether he was deliberately avoiding Xie Wen...

Well, considering Rayleigh's personality, the first possibility is more likely.

Maybe he went to find Ace.

Over on Fish-Man Island, although Derringer was captured by three sister-con mermaids and "taught" in turn, it did not affect his speed of integration.

After all, they are the royal family of the Dragon Palace Kingdom and are unlikely to be "bad guys". Their so-called strict teaching is actually very "gentle" in Deringer's eyes.

You know, this kid's previous instructors were guys like Lao G and Gladius who would beat them to death if they made the slightest mistake. After the brutal training of the Don Quixote family, how could the level of practice of the murlocs not be gentle in his eyes?

The only thing that made Deringer unhappy was probably that the number of times he met Shirahoshi had been drastically reduced, and after meeting him, he would be pulled away by those three sister-con brothers with all kinds of excuses after just a few words.

In addition, Jinbei also took Robin to see a piece of intelligence history text he recently found.

According to him, he found it in the "town" where the sea beasts lived when he was resolving a dispute with them.

Xie Wen recalled carefully, and there was such a thing in the story on the cover page of the comic. In the comic, he should have handed over this historical text to BIG MOM who later protected Fishman Island.

In this way, the day to attend the World Conference soon arrived, and the navy responsible for leading the way also arrived at Fishman Island early.

The navy officer who led the way was also an old acquaintance of Xie Wen.

Garp, the Iron Fist

and……

"Marshal of the Warring States Period?"
