I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

"!!!"

Shanks suddenly sat up from the ground and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"What just happened?! Why don't I remember anything?"

Shanks, who always felt like he had experienced something terrible, looked at Beckman beside him and asked curiously.

Beckman slowly exhaled a smoke ring, then placed a video Den Den Mushi in front of Shanks and pressed the switch on its shell.

The originally lazy image worm immediately became alert, its eyes widened, and light and shadows shot out from them, projecting onto the distant wall.

The picture was shaking violently at first, and the vague murmurings of Uta and a few kittens could be heard, but the picture soon stabilized and focused on Shanks who was taking the wine dish from Suika-nyan.

As this scene appeared, Shanks gradually remembered what happened before he lost consciousness.

Sure enough, the following scene was exactly the same as the future that Shanks predicted through his observation Haki. After drinking the bowl of "medicinal wine", he immediately strangled his throat with his hands, then his eyes rolled back and he fell straight to the ground.

Shanks fell to the ground and rolled back and forth for a few times. Then he began to tremble all over as if he had been electrocuted. At the same time, white foam kept coming out of his mouth like a crab. Finally, after a scream with a completely changed tone, his neck tilted and he became completely motionless.

"Captain! Captain, what's wrong with you?!"

"Oh no! The boss fell down again!"

"Where's the ship's doctor?! Where's the ship's doctor?!"

Amid the panicked movements of the Red Hair Pirates members surrounding him and their shouts, Shanks also heard Xie Wen's gloating voice.

"Quick, put it away and give it to Morgans later. Ask him to help promote it."

Before Xie Wen finished his words, the picture on the wall suddenly went black and the image ended.

Shanks: "..."

"Where's that bastard Xie Wen?!"

After a long silence, Shanks suddenly jumped up from the ground and roared loudly, somewhat for show.

Uta and the cats definitely cannot be blamed, so after thinking about it, I can only blame Xie Wen.

"He said he had something important to attend to, so he left first..." Beckman flicked the ash off his cigarette and pointed at the darkening sky. "And they've been gone for a while. With Red Versus' speed, we probably won't be able to catch up with them."

Shanks was so angry that he ran away after tricking himself, and he didn't know when they would meet again.

"Where's Uta?"

After sulking for a while, Shanks asked about his daughter again.

"After saying goodbye to Xie Wen and the others, she went back to rest."

Beckman patted Shanks, who looked lost, and comforted him, "Don't worry, Uta is just angry now. We can take it slowly. Besides, Xie Wen is not just trying to trick you. He deliberately left a part of the reconstruction work of Elegia. We can take this opportunity to get along well with Uta."

Shanks' face lit up at first, but then he put on a sour face again and said through gritted teeth: "Xie Wen must have done it on purpose, so that I won't be embarrassed to bother him in the future!"

Although he said so, Shanks still felt grateful for Xie Wen's kindness. He even felt that Xie Wen might not have any urgent matters at all and was just leaving to create an opportunity for himself...

After all, the Felyne Investigation Team has always seemed to be "unproductive". So far, no one has been able to figure out the pattern of their actions. Just like this time they came to Elegia, the reason that sounded like a joke was just that the cats in the team wanted to meet Uta. But when Xie Wen first mentioned this reason, everyone thought it was natural.

If nothing else had happened later, no one would have suspected anything at all.

As one of the situations, Shanks touched the scar at the corner of his eye and thought awkwardly.

However, at this moment, a loud roar suddenly sounded in the sky, and at the same time a huge figure riding on a black cloud appeared above Elegia.

"Cang Lanxing! Get out here!!!"

"Damn it! It's Kaido! How did he get here so fast?!"

Shanks' expression changed and he secretly groaned in his heart.

The wine that Suika-nyan fed him before had a strong "aftereffect", and he still hasn't recovered completely. But on the surface, Shanks naturally couldn't back down. He burst out his domineering color, jumped onto the roof of a building, and shouted: "Xie Wen has left here, and now Elegia is taken over by our Red Hair Pirates. Kaido, give me face and leave here."

In fact, he also knew that Kaido would most likely not give him this face. After all, this guy's personality and "hobbies" were no secret. If it were any other time, they would just fight, and their Red Hair Pirates were no less powerful than the Beasts. But the problem was that Shanks was not in a good condition now, and there was also the weak point of Uta on the island, so he still tried to resolve it peacefully.

As expected, the answer he got was a breath of hot air from Kaido.

"Oh la la la la! If you want me to leave, then use your strength to speak!"

Kaido exhaled hot breath and laughed as he switched to the form of half-human, half-dragon, then raised the mace in his hand and smashed it down on the head.

"Jiang Sanshi Yin Nai Luo!"

This madman!

Shanks cursed inwardly, drew out Griffin and rushed forward.

Just as the other members of the Red Hair Pirates were about to go forward to help, a flaming sword flew over from a distance.

"Fire Dragon Emperor!"

One of the Three Calamities, or more precisely, the "Flame Calamity" King, one of the Two Calamities, also appeared on Elegia. Along with him appeared "Drought Calamity" Jack and a group of pirates from the Beasts Pirates. Some of them are very familiar to the Red Hair Pirates, but some are relatively unfamiliar. They are probably the new cadres promoted by Kaido after he was driven out of Wano Country.

In terms of high-end combat power alone, even if the Hundred Beasts had not lost a single disaster, the Red Hair Pirates would still be better, but the Hundred Beasts have more people, especially after integrating Wang Zhi's forces, the overall strength has not decreased but increased, and even some of their members are new members, because they have neither been seen in the Hundred Beasts nor appeared in the Beehive Island before, but each of them is very powerful.

In addition...

Did Jin, Jack, and the familiar Flying Six members learn from their mistakes and become stronger after being beaten by Xie Wen? How did their strength improve so much?

Beckman was anxious as he was trapped by Jhin.

Although it seems that the two sides are in a stalemate at the moment, he has not forgotten that Xie Wen said at the beginning that Kaido and BIG·MOM came here together, and once BIG·MOM joined, their situation would be in danger.

We can only hope that Xie Wen can receive the news as soon as possible and rush back.

But before that...

"Laki! Go protect Uta and Gordon first!"

Beckman shouted at Lucky Lu.

Although doing so would further reduce their own combat effectiveness, Uta's safety was definitely more important to them.

Lachi Lu, whose name was called, did not hesitate. After forcing back "Drought" Jack in front of him, he immediately turned around and ran in the direction of Uta.

"Dog Devouring Red Lotus... Hmm!"

A huge burning dog head suddenly flew over from a distance and instantly swallowed Laci Lu.

"Laki!"

Just when Beckman was distracted, a cold air came and froze him into an ice sculpture.

However, Jhin, who was fighting against it, did not stop. He kicked it, and the ice sculpture fell heavily to the ground, breaking into a pile of pieces.

"!!!"

"Yo~ You guys are awake~"

(In)

Lachi Lu and Beckman sat up from the ground with shocked and angry faces, and then saw Huibara Meow, who should have left long ago, waving at them with a smile.

Around them, members of the Red Hair Pirates and the Fenyx Investigation Team were lying on the ground in a mess, breathing evenly as if they were sleeping soundly.
