I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

After coming out of the racetrack, Xie Wen and his friends continued to experience the various projects on the golden ship according to the preferences of each cat.

It’s just that the “projects” that cats are interested in are quite special…

For example, Sanji-nyan was competing with each other in cooking skills in various restaurants, Suika-nyan was beating up all the customers and staff in the bars along the way, and Sharmi was performing directly on stage in the theater, and a wild and powerful rock song won applause from the audience.

In comparison, Huamei Cat and Robin shopping in the bookstore, and Huiyuan Cat buying luxury goods are relatively normal.

Even Xie Wen, on a whim, tried the golf ball, which he had heard of but never seen in his previous life.

Unfortunately, with Xie Wen's current control of strength, golf was not difficult for him. After trying a few strokes, he completely mastered the batting technique. Although he couldn't hit the ball into the hole every time, he could basically control it within three strokes. So he soon lost interest in this "aristocratic sport".

Instead, Klee took a golf ball and played with it in her hand, muttering that this thing seemed to be very suitable for being transformed into a bomb.

……

While Xie Wen and the others were playing around on the golden ship, Tezoro had already used the ointment to completely remove the hoof print of the Sky-Soaring Dragon on his back.

Also removed was the star tattoo that was used to conceal his identity.

But before Tesoro could be happy for long, a call came from the World Government...

"Cooperate with you to capture Blue Star?"

Tezulo resisted the urge to throw the microphone and refused with gritted teeth, "Impossible! Gulan Tezulo's foundation is neutrality. If I cooperate with you to attack Azure Star, how could those pirates come here?!"

Even if Tesoro had no intention of forming an alliance with Xie Wen, he would not agree to the other party's request. Designing a plan to defraud pirates and joining forces with the authorities to capture them are two completely different concepts. If he wants to make money, he must not destroy the reputation of the Golden Ship as the "absolute sanctuary."

"I'm just informing you, not discussing with you. It doesn't matter whether you cooperate or not, but if Xie Wen gets the news and runs away, you won't be able to bear the consequences."

The CP0 agent on the other end of the Den Den Mushi threatened coldly.

"Saint Purminger will not agree to this!"

Tesoro brought out his backers among the Celestial Dragons.

However, the other party remained unmoved. After a sneer, he hung up the phone without even the intention to refute or explain further.

"Huff--Huff--Huff--"

Because of his past experiences, Tesoro, who couldn't stand being looked down upon by others, gasped and crushed the microphone in his hand into pieces.

After a moment, he finally managed to calm down. After shaking off the debris in his hands, Tesoro, with a stern face, replaced the Den Den Mushi with a gorgeously shaped one and called the Celestial Dragon Purming Saint he had just mentioned.

"Tezoro? Do you have something good to offer me?"

As soon as the call was connected, a domineering voice came from the receiver, and the gorgeous Den Den Mushi also cooperated by making an arrogant expression.

A flash of disgust flashed across Tesoro's face, and then he quickly showed a flattering smile and complained to Saint Purming.

At first, Saint Purming was indeed so angry that he was screaming and shouting that he would teach that CP0 a lesson, but when he heard Tezoro say that the person they were going to deal with was "Blue Star" Xie Wen, his voice stopped abruptly.

"…Pulminger Saint?"

Having a bad feeling in his heart, Tezulo called out tentatively.

“Ahem… If it’s Blue Star, you should cooperate.” Saint Purming’s tone sounded a little unnatural at first, but soon returned to his previous arrogant and unreasonable tone, “He is the arch enemy of us Celestial Dragons! Do you still want to help him?!”

"No, no, no, of course not!" Tezulo quickly shook his head and denied it, and explained: "It's just that if this happens, my business here will inevitably be affected, and the tribute I give to you every month will also be greatly reduced..."

As a Celestial Dragon who could be won over by Tesoro with money, one of Saint Purming's characteristics is naturally greed for money, which is relatively rare among the Celestial Dragons. After all, they have never been short of money.

However, this time, Saint Purming acted contrary to his usual behavior and became like other Celestial Dragons, "treating money as dirt".

On the other hand, he did not follow the usual practice of the Celestial Dragons and let Tesoro find another way to make up for the losses...

"It doesn't matter how few there are. It's more important to capture the Blue Star."

Saint Purming behaved like a normal person at this time, which even made Tesoro begin to doubt whether he was a fake Celestial Dragon.

It was unknown whether Tesoro's "strategy" had achieved some results, or whether Purming was worried that Tesoro would go against his will and hinder CP0 because he was reluctant to pay the money. After a moment of silence, he took the initiative to tell Tesoro the reason...

"The Knights of God? What is that?"

Tezulo looked confused.

Just as Xie Wen guessed, he knew nothing about the existence of the Knights of God, which was not a secret at all.

After all, given the arrogant character of the Celestial Dragons, they would not normally mention to others this special organization that weighs heavily on them.

"Why are you asking so many questions?! Just cooperate if I ask you to! You just need to know that it is an existence that you cannot mess with!"

The patience of the Celestial Dragons could only last so long. Saint Purming did not want to continue explaining to Tesoro, and simply returned to his original personality and started cursing.

"Yes, yes...I understand..."

Tezulo said this with gritted teeth while smiling.

He waited until the other party hung up the phone before crushing the microphone in his hand again.

“…Tanaka!”

After taking some time to calm himself down, Tesoro called out to Mr. Tanaka, one of his right-hand men.

"Go, bring Xie Wen here, and don't let anyone else find out."

With the ability of the Piercing Fruit, which is not inferior to the Menmen and Teleport Fruit in terms of secret movement, it is very easy to avoid other people and bring Xie Wen to Tesoro.

So not long after, Xie Wen followed Mr. Tanaka through layers of walls and came to the fully enclosed golden house where he first met Tezoro.

"Have you known about the existence of the Knights of God for a long time?"

While waiting for Xie Wen's arrival, Tezoro was not idle. Based on Xie Wen's ambiguous attitude before, he roughly guessed that the other party was not optimistic about the alliance with him.

To be more precise, I am not optimistic about my own plan.

So after thinking about it, it seems that this is the only possibility.

"Heh..." Xie Wen chuckled. Instead of answering his question directly, he asked, "So what if there is no Knights of God? You don't really think that the Celestial Dragons will care about you, the 'Golden Emperor'? Even if you earn a lot, can it be compared to the Heavenly Gold that the whole world provides?"

Then, seeing that the time had come, Xie Wen took the initiative to expose Tezoro's delusion...

"Even if you bought Stella first, if the Celestial Dragons still like her, they don't need to spend any money to snatch her away directly. So wake up, Tesoro. No matter how much money you make as the 'Golden Emperor', you are still no different from ordinary people to the Celestial Dragons. As long as they want, they can seize all your money at any time without even finding an excuse."
