I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates

Looking regretfully at Haibara Miao tearing the small piece of paper that Stussy gave him into pieces, Xie Wen turned to look at the clerk who had been neglected by him for a while, and held the rice from the rice between his fingers. The membership card obtained by Lapore Island was handed over...

"Please measure their bodies. I need to make some custom-made clothes." Xie Wen pointed at the cats around him, and finally pointed at Haiyuan Miao who had come down from his shoulders. "Especially this little guy, he needs to be given some custom-made clothes." She makes a few more.”

"No problem!" When he heard that it was a big order, the clerk immediately forgot about the things he had ignored before, and replied in a higher tone: "Hey Hey Panda is here to serve you wholeheartedly!"

After tailoring clothes for several cats, Xie Wen finally had time to ask about Haiyuan Meow's knowledge...

"Xiao Ai, when did you awaken to the color of knowledge? Or did you just wake up just now?"

"Seeing and hearing color?" Haibara was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes and felt the sudden appearance of his ability, and then suddenly realized: "So this is what you call seeing and hearing color? It's really amazing, meow!"

It seems that he has just awakened...

Xie Wen scratched her head while she was addicted to her new ability, and reminded her, "Don't use it all the time when you first awaken. It can easily overwhelm your mental energy."

"Hmph! Got it! I'm not an idiot, meow!"

After enjoying Xie Wen's massage for a while, Haiyuan Miao turned her head very "strongly" to avoid his fingers.

After reminding Haibara, Xie Wen looked at Nyajuro and Huamei, who were standing aside, and said teasingly: "You two are the only ones in the team who have not awakened to see the world. Nyajuro can still be armed after all, and you are the only one." Neither can, my Lord Xiang Feihu."

"I'm ashamed, nya..." The old-fashioned Miyajuro didn't fall for the trick at all, but instead lowered his head in shame.

Boring!

Xie Wen curled his lips and turned his gaze to Hua Mei Miao.

However, Xiang Feihu was not affected at all. Instead, he pretended to be surprised and replied: "Huh? I didn't tell you, Admiral, meow? I've already woken up and seen it~"

"..." Xie Wen was silent for a moment, "Sure enough, you were already awakened when I used Keli to trick you, right?!"

"Eh? What's wrong with Keli?" The little puppet looked confused.

ω

"Admiral, you really did it on purpose, meow!" The civet cat grabbed Xie Wen's palm and bit it down.

(=` Dis=)

After leaving a few tooth marks on Xie Wen's palm, Hua Mei Miao explained: "No, I hadn't awakened to sex at that time. It was only when we encountered a tornado that I suddenly awakened Meow."

Just like Xie Wen and other cats have their own specialties, Huamei Miao is better at sensing temperature, humidity and other weather-related things, and her range of perception is also the largest among all cats.

…

When Xie Wen and the others returned to the ship with their large and small bags, they also found out everything about the auction.

As a "tourist mecca" with a very large passenger flow and a particularly large number of luxury customers, and is also connected to a convenient means of transportation such as the sea train, the business atmosphere of the Spring Queen City is naturally very strong, and the auction is held here. It's not a rare thing. It's very simple to participate. You just need to prove that you have the spending power to enter...

Of course, if you are a well-known pirate yourself, or a big boss such as the King of Loan Sharks, Big News, or an official such as a senior naval official, you will naturally be able to participate without any proof.

In the past, the auctions held by the City of Queen of Spring usually auctioned rare shipbuilding materials, high-end ingredients, specialties from other islands, and other common commodities. The reason why Devil Fruit appeared this time was said to be just an accident.

According to the auction house, the bidder was just an ordinary resident of the island. He was about to eat some fruit when he watched the Devil Fruit form in front of his eyes.

Regardless of whether this rumor is true or false, it is at least certain that there are Devil Fruits to be auctioned. However, due to the deliberate publicity of the auction house, many pirates who heard the news have already rushed over. And there are more people coming here, so the competition this time will probably be fiercer.

in addition……

Xie Wen's eyes rested on a certain item in the auction list - Baoshu Adam, which was used by the past Pirate King and the future Pirate King to build ships.

Compared to the Devil Fruit with unknown specific abilities, Xie Wen wanted this thing more. After buying it, he could go straight to the Capital of Seven Waters and let Espagu and his group of CP agents use these. Materials to upgrade the Explosive Black Cat Maria, or simply build a new ship.

However, Xie Wen doesn’t want to give up the Devil Fruit easily, but as a result, he may not have enough Bailey in his hand. Besides, he has to leave some money to upgrade his ship in the Capital of Seven Waters...

Sigh... You shouldn't be so lavish when spending money...

Thinking back on Bailey's money spent on today's purchase, Xie Wen felt a little regretful.

"Hua Mei, do you have any suggestions?"

Xie Wen, who was slightly troubled, asked Hua Mei Miao, the most business-minded person.

Along the way, in addition to exchanging pirates for bounties, Xie Wen and the others also tried running businesses. Although they would suffer a small loss when selling because there was no fixed line, under Hua Mei Miao's control Under control, they also made a few small profits.

"Admiral, don't you still have famous swords and devil fruits that you can't use, nya? You can totally sell them to the auction house."

"Yes!"

Xie Wen patted his head and then remembered that in his bag there was a Chopper Fruit, two good swords, Yuzukaru and Sandaiki Tetsu, as well as a former famous sword named Manticore... …

Two good sharp knives combined can't sell for more than 10 million beli, so it's better to keep them and use them as double sword wielders. Famous swords that have become outdated are worthless, and they can also be kept as great sword wielders. Then The reindeer fruit can be sold at the auction house.

…

The day of the auction soon arrived. For safety and other reasons, Xie Wen did not bring any cats with him this time. Instead, he left them all on the boat and went to the auction site alone.

Showing the ticket he had obtained before to the waiter at the door, Xie Wen walked into the venue.

After casually scanning around, Xie Wen quickly saw Stussy who was being fawned over by a group of men, as well as several well-known pirates he had seen on wanted posters.

Tsk...this is all money...

Xie Wen, whose assets were about to be greatly reduced, looked at these "bounties" and subconsciously rubbed Chang Yue's knife handle.

After the auction is over, use them to replenish your wallet!

After happily deciding the fate of these pirates, Xie Wen withdrew his gaze, then found a random place to sit down, quietly waiting for the auction to begin.

After the Capital of Seven Waters, basically no more ships will be changed. In the future, the shipwrights summoned will only continue to upgrade on this basis, or make a few small ships like the Spark Knight and the Anchor Submarine.

As for the ship elves... I haven't decided how to write them yet.

Because according to the settings in the comics, the ship elves usually hide from people and will not come out until critical moments. The Thousand Sunny in the comics has not described this aspect, so even if there is a ship Elf, how to arrange a plot for it is also a problem.

…

The recent chapters have said very little. Could it be that everyone, like me, has already entered the Spring Festival Syndrome in advance?
