I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

"I don't see anything special in the ingredients... Where are your research notes? Show them to me."

(=ΦwΦ=)

After recording the data, the gray cat unceremoniously opened its little paws to Indigo who was still hugging Xie Wen's thigh.

Indigo, who was eager for Xie Wen and the others to join the group immediately, did not hesitate at all. He jumped up from the floor and ran quickly to the innermost staircase of the flower garden.

"Please wait a moment! I'll bring it to you right away!"

Indigo rushed into the laboratory upstairs with a "puff puff" sound. Amid a series of chaotic ping-pong sounds, he quickly ran back with a stack of manuscripts and placed them in front of Huibara Cat.

"This is the record I made when I was developing SIQ. There are also observation logs of several experimental subjects that showed excellent evolutionary directions. The remaining experimental subject logs are a bit long. If you are interested, you can go to my laboratory later and take a look at them slowly."

In fact, Indigo and Shiki didn't think that a little kitten like Huiyuanmaow could see anything, but...

Those top-notch research equipment and materials obtained from Punk Hassadri are so enviable!

So even though he didn't think that Catnap could understand his research notes, Indigo didn't show any impatience or contempt. Instead, he pretended to be willing to learn.

Perhaps it was because his "learning" expression was too realistic, and while Huibara Cat was flipping through his research notes, he actually felt like giving some pointers.

The kitten skillfully took out the pair of gold-rimmed glasses (frames) from Hey Panda and put them on. Then he flipped a few pages of the research notebook in his hand and pointed to a paragraph of text and said, "You want to further enhance the strength and aggression of the experimental subject, right? Then replacing the hot kiss fruit with the dusk wreath flower will have a better effect. As for the side effects of the dusk wreath flower, just add a small amount of Umberella leaves, meow."

(=ΦwΦ=)σ

Before Indigo recovered from the shock of how easily Huiyuan Meowth could understand his research notes, he immediately heard the optimization plan she proposed. As a person with good scientific research ability, he only thought about it for a moment and realized that there was nothing wrong with the plan Huiyuan Meowth said, and...

It is indeed better than his method.

"..."

Indigo, who had just been hit by Link Meow, was hit again, and this time the blow came from his professional ability, so it seemed even heavier.

Then, Huiyuan Miao casually pointed out several areas that could be improved and was able to come up with a better solution immediately.

As a result, Dr. Indigo became even more silent, and the funny smile that used to be on his face had long disappeared.

Hmm...why not just surrender to Blue Star...

This thought suddenly popped up in Indigo's mind.

After all, Xie Wen has top-notch equipment, knowledge from the World Government and Vegapunk, and scientists who are far more capable than himself. Even in terms of combat effectiveness, the Felynx Survey Team is stronger than this side...

The legendary pirate Shiki and the Flying Pirates that he once fought for are no longer so popular.

Just when Indigo was thinking about changing jobs, Haibara Cat had already finished reading SIQ's research and development notes, and also read the observation log of an excellent experimental subject.

I carefully put the research materials I had read back, and then...

"It's crude, inefficient, and most importantly... the basic research and development direction of this SIQ is too stupid, meow!"

(In)

The little kitten had a look of disgust on its face and launched a venomous attack without mercy.

"W-what?!"

His nearly twenty years of hard work was so despised that Indigo, who was thinking about changing jobs, couldn't help but get furious. "I admit that you are very good at pharmacology research, but you can't just belittle my research results like this!"

Shi Ji on the side also didn't look very happy. After all, he had always supported this research.

If Haibara Meow really lacked the skills as he thought before, it would be fine, at most it was just a child's prank, but looking at Indigo's appearance just now, Haibara Meow could not be a child's prank.

That would be even worse.

Because doesn't this mean that all my forbearance and hard work over the past twenty years have been in vain?

No, no, the strength of those evolved beasts is not fake, so it certainly cannot be considered as a waste of effort. It’s just that it may not meet the expectations of Xie Wen, or the little cat named Huibara Ai.

But even so, the situation is still not good.

Shi Ji originally intended to use this to attract Xie Wen to join, but if Xie Wen really took the opinion of this little kitten into consideration, wouldn't the alliance be doomed?

But Shiki was a pirate who had experienced many ups and downs. He quickly suppressed his annoyance, smiled as kindly as possible, and asked Haibara Meowth, "Can you tell me why you said that? What's wrong with Indigo's research?"

"There's nothing wrong with guiding animals to evolve towards stronger combat capabilities, but sacrificing rationality to improve combat capabilities is too stupid."

┑(￣Д￣)┍

Already in the mood to talk, Huiyuan Miao did not hesitate. She spread out her two little paws and pointed out the biggest problem with the SIQ potion.

"Uncle, you are the captain of a pirate group, so let me ask you, between a group of subordinates who obey orders but are slightly weaker, and a group of subordinates who are uncontrollable and have only limited strength, which one would you choose, meow?"

Although his face was livid, Shiqi answered honestly, "The first one."

Although his main purpose in getting these beasts was to destroy, even if it was destruction, it was more efficient and controllable, even if they were slightly inferior in strength.

"Right," Huiyuan shook his head helplessly. "Not to mention that most animals can obey simple instructions after training. Just looking at IQ, which can interfere with the direction of evolution, it shouldn't be difficult to create a group of animals with high enough intelligence, right?"

Both Shiki and Indigo knew that Haibara's guess was not nonsense, because they already had a successful case, which was a somewhat lustful gorilla. Except for the inability to speak, it was basically no different from humans.

But it was precisely because of this that the two of them looked even uglier...

So why haven't they thought about this problem in the past twenty years?

"I, I just want to increase the fighting power of those animals as much as possible..."

Indigo still wanted to struggle and forcefully explain himself to Graybara Meowth.

However, the kitten just curled his lips in disdain: "If you can increase your strength by a lot by doing this, then there is no problem, but the strength you gain by using your rationality is probably only increased by about 13%, right? In this case, the combat power of staying rational and being able to follow orders will only be stronger."

(In)

"No... only about 8%. The highest increase was 11%."

Indigo replied somewhat dejectedly.

"Oh……"

Huiyuan Meow immediately understood, "It seems that the purification equipment and purification technology here are also very ordinary, meow."

"Puff, puff."

Dr. Indigo covered his chest and staggered back two steps.

This is not the end. Huiyuan Meow continued, "Moreover, you can make some berserk potions and put them on those animals. When you need them to berage and increase their strength, you can activate them remotely. In this way, the gap between the two can be further narrowed, and you may even surpass them. In addition, you will be more flexible in tactics."

This plan almost completely negated Indigo's work over the past decade. His body shook slightly twice, and then he fell to the ground with a plop, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. His face looked like he was neither smiling nor crying...

Obviously, this unlucky guy had been hit hard by Huibara Cat and was a little dazed.
