I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

Chapter 766 Meeting Brooke Again

After Klee's fruit ability was further improved by absorbing and fusing the Virgin Mary's flame and creating a "little girl", the maximum speed of the Toot-Toot Forward she drove has even exceeded that of Big Bear's "Bear Express".

Although limited by the hull of the Toot Toot and the bearing capacity of the crew members on board, a gradual acceleration process is still required before reaching the maximum speed, but it takes less than half a minute in total, and Big Bear's Meatball Fruit wins by starting with a zero frame.

So, when the Toot Toot arrived at the Island of Music, Elegia, Shanks and his crew who had gone to Egghead Island to check on the situation had not returned yet...

"Yohohoho~ Thank you, Brother Wen. Long time no see!"

Brook, who was still in Elegia, came over with Uta, Gordon, and the members of the Red Hair Pirates who stayed behind to protect them.

"I have seen Rab at the Twin Capes. Thank you very much for bringing me the news of him."

Brooke bowed to Shevon.

then……

"Ms. Robin, long time no see. Nice to meet you two lovely ladies." Brooke took off her hat and gracefully touched her chest. "Please show me your underwear."

"Haha, Mr. Brook is still the same."

Robin covered his mouth with his hands and chuckled, calmly avoiding the other party's request.

Yamato, on the other hand, grabbed his pants and pretended to take them off while asking in confusion, "See your underwear? Is this some weird etiquette out there?"

"That's not etiquette! This skeleton is obviously a pervert, right?! Weapon transformation: Scythe Girl!"

Baby-5 raised his foot and kicked Brook, and turned it into a huge sickle.

Fortunately, her extremely people-pleasing personality has been almost changed under the influence of Xie Wen and the cats, otherwise she would probably be like Yamato and prepare to give benefits to Brook.

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa-!"

Brook quickly leaned back and fell backwards, narrowly avoiding Baby-5's attack.

After rolling on the ground for a while, the lecherous skeleton fell to his knees and pounded the ground with his hands in dissatisfaction: "Damn it! This is the first time a beautiful woman is willing to show me her underwear!"

Xie Wen looked at this guy with a dark face. His originally heavy mood was disturbed by this and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Really?! He's obviously a very good musician, why is he a pervert?!"

Uta put his hands on his hips and complained unhappily.

Gordon covered his face with his hands in shame, as if he was ashamed to be a musician like Brook, and when he looked at Brook, his eyes were filled with disgust and anger.

Obviously, this lustful skeleton must have made the same request to Uta...

Come to think of it, how come he wasn't killed by Shanks?

"Because Mr. Brook said he knew you guys, Sherwin, so the captain showed mercy." Benck Punch, who looked a little scary but was actually a musician of the Red Hair Pirates, came forward to explain, "But the captain also hung him on a tree for a week as a warning."

"Oh, actually we don't know each other very well. I don't mind even if you kill him directly."

Xie Wen narrowed his eyes and spoke in an emotionless voice.

"That's too much! Too much! Brother Xie Wen! I don't remember you being such a heartless person!"

Brook, who was pounding the ground, jumped up excitedly, and the afro on his head seemed to have grown two sizes bigger.

Xie Wen curled his lips in disdain, "I should have forced you to stay here and let Xiao Ai and Purya study you, so that you wouldn't have to go around and act like a hooligan."

"It's not too late now! At the beginning, I was thinking whether I could use Mr. Brook's soul ability to research a method to give the guardian a soul, meow! Check-it~"

(ゝw)~☆

Miaoerya came over quickly.

Huiyuan Meow, who was squatting on Xie Wen's shoulder, nodded with shining eyes and said, "That's right, we shouldn't have let this guy get away before. This is such a good little white... ahem... research subject meow!"

(=w=)

"You wanted to say little white mouse, didn't you?! You wanted to say little white mouse, didn't you?!"

Brooke became even more excited, but his actions were the opposite of his excited questioning attitude. He was quietly moving away from Xie Wen and the others...

You can actually do the moonwalk?

Xie Wen looked at the familiar movements performed by Brooke and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

then……

"oops!"

Brooke, who was using the moonwalk to "quietly" move away from the two scary little cats, suddenly felt his feet stop and he fell to the ground with a thud.

"Who pulled my foot?!"

Brooke yelled in dissatisfaction as he supported himself on the ground and sat up.

Then he saw a red, stupid-looking Husky wagging its tail at him.

"Woof——!"

Vodka called out to Brooke, then lowered his head and continued to nibble on his calf.

"Shut up! My bones don't taste good at all!!!"

If Brook was just afraid of the two scientific research cats just now, he was really panicked now. He kicked his really skinny legs frantically, trying to break free from Vodka's mouth.

However, Vodka was not an ordinary dog, but an elemental beast. So even after Brook had used up 60% of his strength, he still couldn't break free from Vodka's mouth. Instead, the stupid dog mistakenly thought that Brook was playing with him, and bit him even harder.

In the end, Brook was even forced to use his soul-leaving technique.

As a result, no one knows whether it was because Vodka's body was just a ball of potion and not a living being, or because it possessed the ability of a devil fruit... Anyway, Brook failed to possess him successfully, and his soul passed directly through Vodka's body.

"Hmm, soul abilities are ineffective against elemental beasts. This is an interesting discovery, meow!"

(=`ー=)

"Oh, if the soul can't attach to inorganic matter, then I can't create a guardian with a soul? The soul is really amazing, meow! Check it!"

(ゝw)~☆

The two cats on the science side came together and commented on Brook who was still struggling with vodka.

"Is this the right time to talk about this?! I'm about to be eaten by this weird dog!!!"

"Actually, vodka..."

"Vodka is an elemental beast created by me, so it only listens to me, meow!" Huiyuan interrupted Xie Wen's explanation and said, "It's not impossible to ask it to let you go, but you have to cooperate with me and Sister Purya in our research, meow!"

(=ΦΦ=)

As the kitten spoke, the stupid dog Vodka actually cooperated and stopped tearing, just continuing to hold Brooke's calf.

Haibara Meowth stood in front of Brook with her hands on her hips, looking confident of victory.

In this case, she didn't believe that the other party would not cooperate.

"I'll cooperate! I will definitely cooperate!"

Sure enough, Brooke agreed easily. After all, even if it was a little uncomfortable to cooperate with the cats' experiment, it wouldn't be life-threatening and it was better than being eaten by a dog.

"Okay, Vodka, let him go."

Huibara Cat nodded with satisfaction and said to the Husky beside him.

then……

Vodka, who had just been quiet for a while, continued to bite Brooke's calf.

"Didn't I already agree to everything?!"

Brooke asked angrily.

Fortunately, Huibara Cat quickly took out the seastone gloves and chased away Vodka, the disobedient stupid dog.

"Ahem, actually I wanted to say this just now. Vodka is just playing with you, not trying to eat you..." Xie Wen cleared his throat and said afterward, "It usually eats the high-end dishes made by Sanji, so it has no interest in your old bones without any meat on them."

"You should have said this earlier!!!"

"Ahem, you just promised me, you can't go back on your word, meow."

(=w)

Huibara Cat also cleared his throat and reminded, but the little kitten was a little embarrassed after all, so he didn't dare to look at Brook's eyes that actually showed resentment.

Brooke is now very desperate, because he finds that apart from learning the news about Lab and retrieving his shadow, nothing good seems to have happened since he met Xie Wen and his group of cats.
