I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, Queen Ling, who had just suffered a "nuclear attack", reappeared in front of everyone.

Looking down from the sky, it looked as if Linghou had been bitten by someone. A large, nearly circular piece of land was missing near the coast. Even Baiwu next door was affected and a small piece was missing.

As a large amount of seawater poured in from the gap, a huge whirlpool formed in the missing land area, sucking in all the wreckage of the island that had been blown to pieces...

If there is any wreckage left.

"Phew - luckily I ran away quickly."

Kaido, who had already returned to the ship, swallowed and patted his chest in fear.

Although he already knew that Klee and Meowx had special talents in explosions, when he saw the devastating scene below, Big Maine still felt that it was a little unreal...

Not to mention the crazy little cat Meowx, he really couldn't connect the usually cute and adorable Klee with the scene in front of him.

In other words, Kaido joined late, and after being educated by Xie Wen and Huamei, Klee has become much more obedient than at the beginning. If he had been summoned by Xie Wen earlier, he might have been more accustomed to the situation.

"Ah...ah..."

After regaining his sight, Kozuki Hiyori looked at the bell queen whose body was almost missing a quarter of its area and Baiwu whose body was missing a small corner. He was stunned for a long time and could not speak. He could only make meaningless dry moans from his throat.

Even Yixiao was a little scared by the bomb dropped by Klee and the others. Although he couldn't see, his observation Haki, which was not inferior to, or even had a wider range than Sharmi's, had already detected the current appearance of Bell Queen while everyone was still rubbing their eyes.

"This is truly... an astonishing power..."

His voice even trembled a little, not because of fear, but because he had not yet fully recovered from the shock.

However, at this time, he heard the cute little ragdoll cat muttering, "Strange, why does it feel like the destructive power is a little off? Judging from the explosion just now, the explosion range should be expanded by about 10% to 20% meow."

(=w=)

Kozuki Hiyori and Ichisho, who hadn't recovered yet, were shocked again by the puppet's words...

Could it be more powerful?!

By the way, she seemed to have said that there is still room for improvement on this bomb?

Kozuki Hiyori was a little dazed, and she suddenly began to doubt... Was it really the right choice for her to ask Xie Wen to help Wano Country deal with Kaido and the Beasts Pirates?

Fortunately, she quickly adjusted her mentality. If Kaido could be driven out of Wano Country, it seemed that losing part of the territory was not unacceptable.

after all……

The Queen of Bells had been almost completely destroyed by Kaido before this. Apart from the swords buried with the dead in the northern cemetery, this area covered with snow all year round was even worse than Rabbit Bowl, which was almost a prison and quarry.

And before Kaido's invasion, this area had the fewest residents. Wano Country is not a pure winter island. The residents of the island can choose to live in areas with more pleasant climates. There is no need to fight against ice and snow here.

This is also the main reason why the warriors’ cemetery was chosen here.

So, it's fine if it's gone, but Denjiro and Kawamatsu must make sure they don't get affected...

Kozuki Hiyori quickly convinced herself, but immediately turned around and began to worry about the samurai who were going to deal with the Beasts Pirates.

Although she had already informed them at Xie Wen's reminder, how could she not worry when she saw the land completely devoured by the explosion.

Thinking of this, Hiyori Kozuki quickly took out the snail of wisdom left to her by Denjiro, wanting to contact the other party.

As a result, due to the explosion, the thought waves in the surrounding area were disrupted, resulting in the intelligent snail in her hand having no signal at all.

"Stupid Keri!"

(In)

Just when Hiyori Kozuki was secretly anxious and hesitant about whether to ask Xie Wen to take him to find Denjiro and the others, Meowx said, "Did you forget that the "little girl" was detonated in mid-air? You have to take this condition into account!"

"Oh yeah! Klee forgot that, meow!"

∑(=ΦДΦ=)

The little puppet suddenly realized what was going on, then turned around and waved his fist at Meowx angrily, "Klee is not a stupid meow!"

(=`h=)

"Let's go! Let's go down and take a look. Don't you want to collect some more detailed explosion data?"

Seeing that the two little cats were about to escalate their quarrel into a cat-and-cat fist fight, Xie Wen decisively changed the topic to something that interested them more.

The two little cats that were originally baring their claws at each other also cooperated very well to end the confrontation, and instead urged Xie Wen to descend quickly.

"By the way, how is Kaido? Sharmi, can you still sense him now, meow?"

(=w=)

Hua Mei Miao stretched her head and looked down for a while before turning to Xia Er Mi and asking, "Could he have been killed by the explosion?"

"how is this possible?"

Xie Wen laughed and shook his head.

Although the Wano Country in the comics seems to have fixed the bug of "bombs not killing people", and the power of the "little girl" explosion is indeed a bit exaggerated, he still doesn't think that this can take Kaido's life.

Even Xie Wen himself was 70% to 80% confident that he could use his Armament Haki to take down the "little girl"...

Of course, it is impossible to be unscathed.

"That's right, that guy won't die so easily, meow."

"It's a pity, but the most terrifying thing about my bastard dad is his exaggerated defense and his tenacious vitality that makes him unable to die no matter what, so he is most likely still alive."

Kaido, the "isotope in another dimension", and Yamato, the "father's farewell and daughter's smile", spoke in agreement at the same time.

Issho, who had also fought Kaido, nodded a little later and said, "Although my observation Haki didn't detect Kaido, I don't think he's dead... He probably escaped, and I don't think he'll come to Wano Country again in the short term."

"Really? That's great!"

Kozuki Hiyori's eyes immediately filled with tears, and then she once again knelt down before Xie Wen and Mao Mao, "Thank you all for your help to Wano Country. From now on, if you have any requests, the Kozuki clan will do their best to fulfill them even at the cost of their lives!"

Lian Yixiao also kowtowed, "Thank you, my friend Wen. I think I am quite capable. If you need me to do anything in the future, I will definitely not refuse!"

Xie Wen quickly stepped forward and helped the two of them up.

Xie Wen had no intention of being polite about their promise. Although with the current strength of the investigation team, they would not need their help in most cases, but that's how human relations work. Whether or not it is needed and whether or not there is help are two different things.

As the Dudu fell back to the ground, Xie Wen and the others came to the edge of the hole that was blown up. The seawater that had poured in before had not yet calmed down, but the little cats wearing waterproof combat uniforms were not worried about this at all. After Meowx activated his cat paw can, he jumped into the water with Shirahoshi, intending to go down and see if he could salvage something.

As for Klee, she took Meowlya and Huibara with her to collect scorched earth and measure data changes nearby.

However, even without using any tools to measure, Xie Wen could sense an obvious change, which was...

It got hot after the bell.

The heat generated by the explosion of the "Little Girl" has not yet dissipated. The Linghou area, which has always had a severe cold climate, has now entered the rare "summer", and it is unknown how long it will last.

But fortunately, the "little girl" made by Klee and her friends did not use radioactive materials such as uranium-235 and plutonium-239. Its core explosive is actually the gunpowder developed by Klee based on the power rock and Meowth's cat hair, so this "cat nuclear bomb" is actually very "clean" and will not leave any nuclear pollution.

After some salvage, Meowx and Shirahoshi did not find any trace of Kaido...or his body.

Yamato secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news. Although she had decided to sever the father-daughter relationship between her and Kaido, she still didn't want to hear the news of his death.

Given Kaido's physical strength and level of Armament Haki, it's impossible for him to be blown to pieces, so it's very likely that he just escaped with injuries.

And after the "signal" of the intelligent snail was restored, Denjiro also received the good news that the Beasts Pirates had retreated, further confirming Kaido's retreat.

If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. Although Kaido has the character of a battle maniac, he is still a pirate at heart. When he sees that the situation is not good and there is no profit to be made, he will never hesitate to run away.

"Brother Xie Wen, look! Keli found this meow!"

(=＞＜=)

Instead of entering the water, the little Ragdoll and the gray cat who ran to collect data came back holding a long horn.

Judging from the curved and unbranched shape of the horns, they should be Kaido's own demon horns, but they have been enlarged a lot after he turned into a blue dragon.

Well, let Ai process it into a weapon and use it next time we fight Kaido!

The first time Xie Wen saw this horn, he had already thought of its purpose.
