I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

Even though Whitebeard was shouting things like "I don't need treatment", he was still sent to Haibara Cat's medical room reluctantly after being coaxed and deceived by his sons and Xie Wenduo's promise to give him a few barrels of Ibuki sake.

"Thief hahahahaha! Hello, little Keri, it's a pity that I didn't see you last time!"

While Whitebeard was being examined and treated by Haibara Meowth, Teach immediately seized the opportunity and came over to get close to Klee on Xie Wen's shoulder.

Klee's reaction was a little strange...

The little doll pressed her ears first, but then a puzzled look appeared in her big ruby ​​eyes. She tilted her head and looked at Teach for a long time, then turned away decisively and ignored him completely.

"Hahahaha! Tikki, you won't be liked by these little cuties with your looks!"

Diamond Joz on the side laughed and patted him on the back, then put his angular face, which was not much better than Teach's, in front of Klee and asked as gently as possible: "Are you right? Little Klee~"

As a result, the little puppet blinked, then turned around without giving face, and jumped directly into Xie Wen's arms, buried its little head in his chest and arched it a few times, and after adjusting to a comfortable position, it stopped moving. It looked like a shy and introverted little lady...

However, Xie Wen knew the nature of this little cat. She was not shy or introverted at all. She was just lazy after eating and didn't want to pay attention to these two strange uncles who didn't seem familiar to her.

"Hahahahaha! Captain Joz, you're just as disliked by Klee as I am!"

"Perhaps in the eyes of little sister Klee, Captain Joz looks no different from Teach?"

"No, even in our eyes, there isn't much difference between the two of them, right?"

"Hahahahahaha!"

The members of the Whitebeard Pirates didn't care about who was the captain or not, and they all started to laugh at Joz who was making himself look ridiculous.

Because Joz was usually quite quiet, and this was the first time he spoke so softly like he just did, they naturally would not miss this good opportunity.

Being ignored, Joz certainly wouldn't and wasn't too embarrassed to argue with the cute little Klee, but those who dared to laugh at him weren't so lucky...

"Since you are so energetic, why not have an after-dinner activity?"

Joz grabbed the two companions who laughed the loudest, one by one, and dragged them towards the open space on the coast.

Xie Wen ignored the pirates' fight and gently stroked Klee's little head, feeling a little surprised...

Judging from the reaction of the little puppet just now, she didn't seem to detect any malice in Teach. She didn't know whether he was lying in wait and had completely admitted his mistake and really had no malice, or whether he had a skill similar to the Observation Kill that could avoid Klee's perception, or perhaps he was actually targeting Klee's ability to make bombs, so he planned to recruit her in the future?

For this reason, Xie Wen deliberately glanced at Bai Xing and found that she also had no reaction.

But if you think about it carefully, this situation doesn't seem surprising. Although the Observation Haki that can sense malice and emotions is rare, it is not unique to Klee and Shirahoshi. With Whitebeard's experience, it is not uncommon to encounter or even have members who possess similar Observation Haki. So no matter what the situation is, Teach probably has a way to deal with it.

What a pity... If Klee and Shirahoshi could react, not to mention killing Teach directly, at least Whitebeard and the others could be on guard.

Xie Wen shook his head gently, still not planning to act rashly. At most, he would wait until Haibara Meowth finished treating Whitebeard and then remind him and Ace in private. As for whether they believed it or not, that was not something Xie Wen could control.

After being rejected by Klee, Teach did not give up the idea of ​​getting close to other cats. However, he did not continue to look for cats like Klee who stick to Xie Wen or others and don't like to pay attention to outsiders. Instead, he turned around and joined other pirates to have a drinking contest with cats who are easier to talk to, such as Suika, Kaido, and Meowjuro.

Kaido-nyan and the others naturally accepted everyone who came, and Suika-nyan was even more eager to have more people drink with her.

Xie Wen glanced casually at Teach, and he had no intention of stopping her...

Anyway, that guy can't do anything to the cats now. As for using this opportunity to build a good relationship with the cats and then poach people from Xie Wen, that's even more nonsense and there's no need to care about it at all.

"Out!"

Not long after Teach went off to have a drinking contest with Suika, Haibara and Whitebeard came out of the medical room.

Worried about Whitebeard's health, Ace and the others rushed forward and surrounded the two of them...

Teach was even one of the few running in the front.

"How is Daddy's health?"

"Little sister Huiyuan, are you sure you can cure dad's illness?"

"As long as you can cure your father, if you have any requests in the future, we in the Whitebeard Pirates will definitely do it for you!"

"Xie Wen said that your medical skills are no worse than Vegapunk's, so you must have a way, right?!"

"This is so annoying! Everyone, get out of here, meow!"

(=`Д=)

The little kitten, who already had a bad temper, instantly became angry at the chaotic situation of everyone talking and stretched out his little paw to pat the little white bat on his shoulder.

"Vermouth, cure these idiots of their stupid illness, meow!"

"grumble--!"

The little white bat spread its wings, and the color of its body instantly changed to emerald green. Then, a mist of the same color quickly spread out in all directions with its vibrating wings, and in the blink of an eye, it enveloped the group of pirates surrounding Haibara Meowth.

“Ughh ...

“Ah ...

“Oh no! It’s the one from last time… No, that’s not right. It’s even more brutal than last time… Wahh ...

The unsuspecting pirates covered their mouths and noses, screamed and fell to the deck. Ace, who had the "fortune" of tasting Haibara Meow's "prototype potion" once before, had a slightly better resistance than the others, but faced with the more "effective" Satan potion, he could not hold on for long and soon followed in the footsteps of the others.

Amid the screams of this group of people, Xie Wen also heard a familiar voice and lines -

"No, unfortunately..."

Well, the unlucky Touma was somehow brought to Haibara by this group of pirates and became the only innocent victim of this accident.

The pirates who were a step slower and were blocked on the periphery secretly rejoiced while quickly covering their mouths and noses and moving away from the green mist that was gradually dissipating.

"Humph~"

(=`へ=)

The little kitten raised its chin and glanced at the pirates who had not been knocked down. Then it jumped to Xie Wen's side and squeezed into his arms together with Klee.

"Don't worry, what Xiao Ai just released was actually a healing potion, it just tasted a little worse."

Xie Wen explained to the worried Whitebeard and the remaining pirates, "Just wait until they recover."

"a little……"

Whitebeard and the others' mouths twitched, and they were speechless as they looked at their companions lying on the ground.
