I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

"Wow! There are so many flying fish!"

Kelimiao stepped on Xie Wen's shoulders, put her two little paws on his head, and smiled happily in the sea breeze.

Not far from the raft they were riding on, flying fish broke out of the water and continued to glide on the sea.

At first, the two sides were moving in different directions. However, after meeting Xie Wen and the others, this group of flying fish quickly changed their direction and followed the raft not far or near... They probably moved Xie Wen and the others. The raft he was riding on was used as a racing object or something else.

Seeing the behavior of this group of flying fish, Xie Wen couldn't help but cast a look of pity on them, while Sanji Miao skillfully took out a barbecue grill and the bottles and jars containing seasonings from his bag.

Lying on Xie Wen's head, Keli Miao cheered for a while, then took out a round, cute-shaped... bomb from the backpack on her back.

"Hey!"

Keli Miao threw the bomb in her hand towards the group of flying fish that were seeking death. With a "bang", a large number of stunned flying fish suddenly appeared on the sea.

At the beginning, Kelimyo's bombs would directly blow them up into "Kelly Grilled Fish", but after trying Sanji's craftsmanship, Kelimyo's fish bombs were immediately iteratively upgraded.

After some dismantling and reference to the sonic bomb in Xie Wen's hand, Kelimiao's fish bomb can now stun them without damaging the quality of the fish.

Xie Wen, who had known this result for a long time, took out a long fishing net from his bag while Keli Miao took out the bomb, and caught all the flying fish that were stunned. Get up and hand it over to Sanji, who had already prepared it. After a while, the smell of grilled fish floated on the raft.

After eating the grilled fish, both cats lay in Xie Wen's arms, enjoying his touch.

While Xie Wen stroked the cat in his arms, he squinted his eyes and looked at the horizon in the distance.

They have been drifting on the sea for several days. Although there is still enough fresh water and food in the bag, and there are two cats around, they will not be bored, but they have not been able to encounter an island or a ship. How many It also made Xie Wen feel a little irritable and uneasy.

However, Xie Wen was fortunate that they did not encounter any bad weather in the past few days. Even the only rainy day they encountered was not a heavy rain. The wind was not strong and the waves were not strong. The duration was It didn't take long, Xie Wen hadn't even been nervous for a while, and the wind and rain gradually stopped...

From this point of view, there is a high probability that they are not in the Grand Line now, but they just don’t know which sea among the four seas they are in.

Just when Xie Wen was lost in thought, the two kittens sleeping in his arms suddenly pricked up their ears, and then both looked up at the sky.

"what happened?"

Xie Wen followed their gaze and saw a huge seagull flying towards their raft. What was strange was that this seagull also wore a white sailor hat and a small dark bag hanging around its neck. , and a large light-colored strip bag slung on his side.

"News bird..."

Xie Wen, who has read cartoons, is no stranger to this strange bird, and the newspaper in the hands of News Bird is also what Xie Wen, who currently lacks information, urgently needs.

But the problem is...

He didn't have a pele in his hand.

As for killing birds to obtain retribution, Xie Wen had never even thought about it.

Only when he is full will he offend the world's media tycoons for a newspaper worth 100 beli.

But he really needs a newspaper to understand the current situation...

Just when Xie Wen was worried about what to do, the news bird had flapped its wings and landed on their mast, and looked at the two cats in Xie Wen's arms warily.

As soon as Xie Wen lowered his head, he saw two pairs of eager eyes, and even his tail was already wagging. He quickly stopped him and said, "You can't eat this."

"Cuck!"

It was indeed not an illusion just now! The newsbird on the mast was startled, then let out a dissatisfied cry and flapped its wings to get away.

Although the two fur cats were stopped by the human, who knows if they will launch a raid just to sell newspapers and not risk their lives.

"Wait, wait!"

Seeing News Bird preparing to leave, Xie Wen hurriedly asked to stay and pulled the two cats behind him.

Newsbird's professional ethics is still guaranteed. Although he was a little concerned about the two fur cats, seeing that Xie Wen had blocked them behind him, Newsbird chose to stay after hesitating for a moment.

Xie Wen, who had no money in his hand, was not in a hurry to mention buying a newspaper. He first took out a small dried fish pickled by Sanji Meow from his bag and threw it to the news bird on the mast.

The newsbird opened its mouth to catch the dried fish, raised its neck and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Cuck!"

The newsbird chirped happily, obviously very satisfied with this small dried fish.

So Xie Wen took out a few small dried fish again and waved them at the news bird, "Can I exchange the dried fish for a newspaper with you? The specific number of fish needed can be discussed."

This is what Xie Wen came up with - the old barter model.

"Ah..."

Newsbird tilted his head, a troubled expression on his face.

He has never encountered this kind of situation. Even if other people were in a shipwreck and didn't have Bailey on them, they wouldn't rush for a newspaper, let alone exchange it with precious food.

That is to say, a guy like Xie Wen, who has a dark eye on the current era and situation, and at the same time has no worries about food and drink, would do this kind of loss-making business.

In the end, the news bird lost to his appetite and let Xie Wen exchange for a newspaper at the cost of ten small dried fish.

Spreading out the newspaper, Xie Wen first looked at the time on it——

In the year 1515 of the Haiyuan calendar, there is no month or date. Of course, this is not important to Xie Wen. The year is enough.

But...which year does the plot start?

Xie Wen, who does not have photographic memory, cannot remember details such as a specific year, so even if he knows the time, he still has no clue.

Forget it, let's see if we can extract some useful information from the news.

He set his sights on the newspaper's front page headlines...

"The conflict between the Beasts Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates was actually because of him..."

Xie Wen: "..."

Sure enough, media people from all over the world like to be clickbait.

After complaining about the title, Xie Wen looked at the text.

The specific content is not unusual. It just briefly tells the origin, process and results of the conflict between the two pirate groups. If it were not for the fact that the protagonists of the incident were Baiju and Whitebeard, then this news would be the front page headline. It is absolutely unqualified.

However, Xie Wen also extracted two important pieces of information.

First, Whitebeard is not dead yet, and the battle at the top has not happened yet.

Secondly, in the article, the Beasts and Whitebeard are either referred to by their nicknames or as "The Great Pirates of the New World", and the words related to "Four Emperors" or "Emperor of the Sea" do not appear once.

and so……

I came quite early?

Luffy has definitely not gone to sea yet, and the Shaoshao Fruit has been eaten by Kelimya, so Ace should also have not gone to sea, or has just gone to sea, but at what point in time, Xie Wen still has no clue. .

But it was enough to know this. At least he still had time to get Yuki Kakeru and the Third Generation Ghost.

After reading the headlines on the front page, Xie Wen flipped through other pages. However, there was not much effective information on them. At most, it was a side confirmation that the title of Four Emperors had not been called out yet.

However, the Shichibukai system already exists, because there was a news item mentioning Kai Xia Jinbei.

"It seems like nothing big has happened recently..."

Xie Wen, who carefully read all the advertisements in the corner, closed the newspaper and smacked his lips in frustration.

Although it is a good thing for most people that the situation is relatively calm, it is not a good thing for Xie Wen who wants to obtain more information.

Fortunately, he just asked Newsbird about the location of the nearest land, and the other party told him very kindly...

Well, it was in the direction that Kelimiao pointed at the beginning after they went out to sea.

Tomorrow this book will be in the first round of recommendations. Please vote and speak out to increase the performance of the cats!
