I Formed The El Cat Investigation Team In Pirates Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Something that was never mentioned in the original work...

In Xie Wen's opinion, the characteristics of a map should be that it has a strict mathematical foundation, a symbol system, and written annotations, and that it can intuitively understand the topography of a region.

But the thing in front of me has islands drawn in several circles. The proportions on it are very problematic at first glance, and the distance between islands is not expressed in kilometers or nautical miles, but is marked " Descriptions like "It takes 2 to 3 days to sail"...

Xie Wen didn't even need to open the hunter's manual to know that this **** would definitely not be able to advance the dynamic map.

No wonder it's sold so cheaply…

Xie Wen's mouth twitched, but he did not just throw away the map in his hand. Although it was not accurate enough... to be precise, it had nothing to do with the word accuracy, but at least it allowed him to find the direction of the islands.

In addition, he might be able to awaken some memories based on some of the islands and countries marked on the map.

For example…

Is the Kingdom of Flowers also located in the Western Sea?

As the Eight Treasure Marines in One Piece have a more Chinese-style style, Xie Wen still has a deep memory of them... although the so-called Chinese style is a bit nondescript.

It's a pity that the martial arts-like fighting skill Ba Chongquan seems to have to be taught by joining the Babao Navy. Otherwise, Xie Wen would really want to learn it.

After putting away this disappointing chart of the West China Sea, Xie Wen flipped through the expired newspapers. Some of the events reported above were indeed quite interesting, but unfortunately they were not of much help to Xie Wen. However, he I didn't hold much hope for these newspapers, so I threw them away after flipping through them.

After shopping, it was almost time for dinner. Xie Wen immediately took the two cats to a restaurant in the center of the town. As a bodyguard hired by Cody, of course he knew how to take care of the food. After talking to Bacchus Before parting, he had already told Xie Wen where to have dinner.

After entering the restaurant, they were quickly led to Uncle Bacchus by the waiter.

"Mr. Cody still has business to discuss, so we can just eat by ourselves." Bacchus explained while pulling Xie Wen to the dinner table.

"Uncle, is it okay for you not to be with Mr. Cody?" Xie Wen asked with some surprise.

Bacchus laughed, "As a good old man, Mr. Cody can still make a name for himself in the West China Sea where gangs are everywhere, and it's not just about the money he earns."

From what I hear, Mr. Cody might be stronger than Bacchus, the butler and bodyguard?

That's really not what people look like...

Xie Wen smacked his lips in surprise, but after thinking about it, it made sense. If he didn't have enough skills, how could Mr. Cody dare to leave his fleet like this, with only a capable guard like Bacchus by his side.

This information, Bacchus did not disclose to himself yesterday, probably because he truly treated them as one of his own after hiring them?

Xie Wen guessed this, and then tried to ask Uncle Bacchus for more information during the meal.

And things seemed to be exactly as Xie Wen had guessed. This time, Bacchus even took the initiative to add some details when answering questions.

For example, the nautical chart that deceived Xie Wen before. In fact, it's not that there are no accurate nautical charts, but most people don't have access to them. For civilians who don't go to sea or only fish offshore, they may not be able to use them for the rest of their lives. There is no need for a chart, and for pirates, knowing the general direction is enough. If you have the time to draw a chart, it is better to find a more reliable navigator.

Even a businessman like Cody basically only takes a few fixed routes, regardless of whether he has a chart. Unless he plans to expand his business, he will prepare more detailed charts.

Xie Wen recalled it carefully, and it seems that this is really the case. In the comics, except for Nami drawing a sea chart for the evil dragon at the beginning, and the occasional treasure map that appeared, it seems that there are no sea charts, especially After entering the Grand Line, all we relied on were permanent pointers and there was no need to use sea charts at all.

so…

What is the use of the evil dragon from the great route? Moreover, he is still a fishman, so the usefulness of the sea chart is even less obvious.

In addition to the issue of sea charts, Bacchus, who is well-informed, also told Xie Wen a lot of things that were not mentioned in the comics.

For example, there are not only the so-called "Twelve Skills" and "Twenty-one Skills" among the good knives in this world. There may be only those twelve great sharp knives, but great sharp knives, good quick knives, etc. There are still many different levels of weapons. The so-called "twenty-one-level" and "fifty-level" are just the more famous among these levels of knives.

Xie Wen quite understands this. After all, no matter how powerful the famous sword is, it is forged by a swordsmith. As long as there are swordsmiths, there will inevitably be new good swords.

It is impossible that all the swordsmiths in the world died overnight, and the forging technology was also lost, right?

I just don't know the page about weapons in my hunter's manual. Does it have to be a famous sword, or does it just need to be a good sword that reaches the level of quick knife or above? There is another thing that Xie Wen did not expect. Bacchus could actually be related to Brooke...

To be precise, he and Brooke are from the same country, and his swordsmanship was learned after joining the guard of that country.

It's just that when Bacchus joined the escort, Brooke had already gone to sea, and he had only heard of the legend of Sandin.

“Let's have a fight, Uncle Bacchus.”

After learning that Bacchus' swordsmanship and Brooke's swordsmanship came from the same source, Xie Wen instantly became interested.

“Oh? Okay.”

Bacchus touched his chin and agreed.

Although Kelimiao's previous performance was very powerful, she used powerful explosives. Apart from being very fast when throwing explosives, she did not show much of her own strength, and Xie Wen did not show much from the beginning to the end. Moved hands.

Although Bacchus also knew that Xie Wen, who could "conquer" Kelimiao, was certainly not too weak, but Xie Wen, who claimed to be a swordsman, didn't even have a decent sword and had to pick it up. Those gang members, plus his obviously immature face...

It is natural that Bacchus would be contemptuous.

After dinner, Sherwin and Bacchus, surrounded by a group of sailors, came to an open space outside the town.

“Brother Xie Wen, come on, meow!” Keli Meow waved her little paws and acted as a cheerleader for Xie Wen.

“Boss, Xie Wen is still a child, you have to be gentler!”

“Boy Xie Wen! I'm optimistic about you and I'll give Boss Bacchus a good lesson!”

Other sailors were laughing and shouting loudly, and some even took the opportunity to open the market. As a result, those sailors who supported Xie Wen said nice things, but in the end, not a single one of them won by buying him.

Seeing that the bet was about to go no further, a furry little paw stretched out in front of the sailors.

“I bet a hundred Baileys, Xie Wen wins meow.” Sanji meow took out all the pocket money that Xie Wen had given him before.

　　"Here is a thousand Baileys, Keli also beats brother Xie Wen to win, meow!"

Hmm... Girls should be rich and well-off. This is the experience left by our ancestors, and it's not that Xie Wen is partial.

The roar of the crowd did not affect the two people who were about to duel. Bacchus did not even take out the Western sword from his waist. He just raised his index finger at Xie Wen with one hand: "Double-sword style? The weapon is not The more the merrier, boy.”

This is...somewhat looking down on people.

Xie Wen, who originally wanted to have a good discussion with the other party, was silent for a moment, then took out the two pirate scimitars he had just picked up today, crossed them and raised them high.

　　Ghost transformation, start!

Since we are the same person...naturally we have to add some extra settings.

In addition, I am not making up the poor version of the map. Many maps in ancient times were like this. They did not have precise proportions, but only approximate directions.

Considering the world view of pirates, which has a seriously unbalanced technological level, this is the case for maps used by ordinary civilians. I think it is still possible.

　　　Thanks to Artmos for the reward.
