I Formed The El Cat Investigation Team In Pirates Chapter 217

 Chapter 217 Another possibility of Ace

how to say…

Hearing Ace's voice, Xie Wen felt that it was both unexpected and reasonable.

 After all, although this guy doesn't only know how to eat like Luffy, he is often associated with Overlord's Meal. It's quite fitting for him to appear at this time.

that is…

Xie Wen glanced at Crocas.

Does he know Ace's true identity?

“There were actually two ships passing by here today, which is unusual.”

 Crocas' expression was normal, but he glanced at Ace's pirate ship in slight surprise.

Although this is the "only" intersection of the Grand Line, as the Age of Discovery initiated by Roger gradually enters a stable period, and more and more people fail to attempt the Grand Line, the number of people who continue to venture here is also changing year by year. There were only a few people there, so seeing two groups of people come to Twin Capes in one day was something Crocas had not seen for a long time.

 The slightly different thing is that Xie Wen and the others are not pirates, but relatively well-known bounty hunters.

　　Sanji, who had a strong opinion against the two brothers Ace and Luffy at the beginning, just kicked them away.

"Ah ha ha ha ha..." Ace smiled dryly and touched the back of his head, "That kind of thing is not suitable for me. I always fall asleep for no reason every time I read the newspaper."

Ace pretended not to hear, but jumped to the dining table and greeted the other cats: "Long time no see, Xiao Keli, Seijuro and Miss Hua Mei...eh? Why are there so many? Two?"

While they were talking, the Spade Pirates' ship also docked next to Twin Capes. Ace, whose stomach had long been rumbled by the aroma of the food, jumped off the ship and rushed straight towards Xie Wen and the others. He came over, staring at the food on the table, and shouted: "Sorry, can you sell me some of your food?!"

Crocas, who had also been a pirate, did not want that young junior to fail just after breaking into the Grand Line, so he spoke first: "It is fate to meet here. Don't be with this person today." It's hard to grow little pirates.”

“You fall asleep while eating, so why don't you eat at all, nya.” Sanji said while rolling his eyes.

He laughed and greeted Xie Wen and the cats, which made Deus and others who originally thought they had encountered enemies a little confused about the situation.

"That's my nickname, just like when others call you 'Spade'..." Xie Wen raised his forehead, "By the way, you still haven't learned to read a newspaper?"

"This familiar touch..." Ace covered his cheek and climbed up, finally turning his attention to Xie Wen and the others, "Ah! It's you! Hahahaha! It's been so long!"

Xie Wen was confused for a moment whether Crocas was really just trying to support his juniors, or whether he had already recognized Ace's identity.

"Captain, is this an acquaintance of yours?" Deus asked cautiously: "If I'm not mistaken, he should be the recently famous bounty hunter Blue Star, right?"

“This is Sister Ai and Brother Link~” Kelimiao introduced enthusiastically: “This old man's name is Krocas, and he lives in this lighthouse.”

However, he didn't bother to worry about it. He just shrugged and said, "Don't worry, I know that guy."

 “Poof!”

Ace, who only saw food in his eyes, was completely unprepared. He was kicked firmly in the face by Sanji's kitten claws, and flew sideways. He rolled on the ground several times and almost fell into the sea.

"Blue Star? No, his name is Xie Wen." Ace replied carelessly.

 “I don't want to give food to you idiot, meow!”

"Hello everyone, I'm Ace." Ace also introduced his crew, "They are Deus, Skar, and Bonsi, the friends I met on the road."

Deus Shevan wearing a Zorro eyepatch is quite familiar, and Skaar Shevan wearing a skull mask and decorated with skulls all over his body is also somewhat familiar. There seems to be such a person in the side story comics, and He was completely unimpressed by the last woman, Bonsi, who had a round figure.

After briefly getting to know each other, "Barbecue Fruit Power Users" Xie Wen and Keli Miao teamed up to add a few more dishes, and then a group of people started a lively banquet. After eating and drinking, Ace launched a challenge to Xie Wen and the others as expected.

 “Let's fight again! I won't lose to you this time!”

What surprised the members of the Spade Pirates was that their always arrogant captain was actually challenging the yellow kitten who was obviously the chef. And judging from what he meant, he had lost to him before. other side?

And Sanji-nya naturally wouldn't refuse a good thing like beating Ace again, so he agreed without hesitation.

Although he has no fruit ability, Ace discarded his usual weapon, the water pipe, after going to sea, and chose to fight the enemy with bare hands.

"drink!"

The entangled fists with armed colors slammed into Sanji, and the little yellow cat also used the same paws with armed colors to meet him. One person and one cat were soon fighting together.

Krokas, who was watching on the sidelines, twitched his lips and couldn't help but sigh: "Are all newcomers so good now? They have already mastered the weapon color before entering the Grand Line..."

 He still doesn't know how to do this.

and…

"The Spade Pirates...should be pirates from the East China Sea, right?" Crocas recalled the newspaper he had read not long ago, and the surprise on his face became even stronger, "Such a new pirate star is not here A bounty of twenty million? Are all people in the navy blind?"

“Is it possible that Ace didn't need to use all his strength when he was in the East China Sea?”

 “…That's right.” Crocas nodded in confusion.

But then again, Xie Wen is not so surprised that Ace can master the weapon color, but before he and Luffy teamed up, he was beaten, but now he can fight Sanji Miao on his own. One time, Xie Wen had to sigh.

This speed of progress is no worse than that of Luffy and Kirby in the comics, and there is a saying that although Ace at this time may not be as good as him in terms of attack power and attack range after eating the Shao Shao Fruit, if the two If Ace actually fought at the same age, this Ace's winning rate might be even higher.

Moreover, compared to the Ace who relied on the fruit's ability in the original work, the growth attribute of Ace who refined his domineering spirit is obviously higher... After all, his father Roger did not rely on Devil Fruit to become the Pirate King, so he left it to Kaido. A profound impression and influence.

Hmm, I always feel that if this situation continues, Blackbeard may suffer severely in the future. After all, Ace, who is not an ability user, will not be restrained by the Darkness Fruit.

But that's not necessarily the case, because before Blackbeard got the Dark Fruit, he was also a ruthless man who could leave scars on Shanks' face. In a competition of dominance and skill, young Ace would probably not be his opponent...

Compared with Xie Wen who still has time to distract himself and think about some miscellaneous things, the members of the Spade Pirates cannot be so calm.

After all, in their perception, Ace's strength is unprecedentedly strong in the East China Sea. Not to mention the use of armed Haki, there have only been a few serious battles for him, but in their eyes, the future Pirate King, Now it was as good as a kitten that was only about one meter tall.

“No wonder everyone says that the East China Sea is the weakest sea,” Deus said with a wry smile: “If the pirates in the Grand Line are all at this level, we will probably only be able to hold back the captain...”

"Things are not as bad as you think." Although he was also shocked by Sanji Miao's strength, as an intelligence agent of the Spade Pirates, Skaar had a more rational understanding of the strength of the Grand Line and Xie Wen. "That Blue Star has the record of killing more than ten pirate groups at once on the Grand Line, so we can't use their strength as the benchmark for judgment, and... we will also become stronger, right?"

"You are right, we have to work harder, otherwise we will not be able to keep up with the captain."

While Xie Wen and Crocas were chatting and laughing, and Deus and others were working hard to improve themselves, Sanji, who was fighting Ace, was not in a good mood...

Why did this idiot become so powerful all of a sudden? !

The little yellow cat who used to be able to overwhelm the opponent without using all his strength, now not only has mastered the weapon color, but also has the ghost-human transformation and fur tribe mode turned on, but still cannot win.

How could Sanji, who originally just wanted to kick Ace a few times to let off steam, accept this? !

Furthermore, considering that becoming a demon will speed up one's own physical strength, it will only be a matter of time before he continues to fight and lose. This makes Sanji Miao unable to calm down.

So, the little yellow cat, who didn't want to give in just like that, took out a small yellow jar with a knife and fork pattern on it...
