Chapter 477 Something Is Wrong
At the same time when Xie Wen received Cody's call, several other Shichibukai also received the news.
Cavendish naturally needs no further explanation, he should be the first one to know.
Fishman Island has been running for the recognition of the World Government recently, so Jinbei naturally cannot refuse, thus causing dissatisfaction from the World Government.
And Doflamingo, who wants to become the Pirate King and is afraid of chaos in the world, will not miss such "interesting" things.
Of course, Tian Yasha, like Xie Wen, is not optimistic about the actions of the World Government and the Navy, so he just came to watch the show and see if there is a chance to do something in it.
Fat otaku Moria actually doesn't want to go out, but Xie Wen and the cats have released almost all the shadows he collected some time ago, and most of the corpses have been burned to ashes. Although he has collected some more during this period, the efficiency is too low, so he just needs such an opportunity to replenish materials on a large scale.
Hawkeye, the strongest of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, did not refuse the call. Although Charlotte Linlin is not a swordsman, and there are not many swordsmen worth mentioning in the Big Mom Pirates, but...
Who made him idle recently? It seems to be quite good to fight with the four emperors.
The only one who didn't want to participate was Hancock. Just like what happened in the comics, the navy who went to invite her was petrified by her. This time there was no Luffy to change Hancock's mind, so the navy found out that those navy had lost contact after several days, so they had to send the fastest Kizaru to the Nine Snakes Island again.
People like Hancock, in fact, deserve to be dealt with. After being bombarded by Kizaru with a laser, she honestly lifted the petrification of those navy, and then followed them to meet with the other Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Before she arrived, Xie Wen had already arrived at the island called Oberstein.
Xie Wen, who didn't want to go back, finally turned back, because the location of Oberstein Island is very close to the Red Earth Continent. On the map of the Hunter's Manual, it is basically on the same level as the G-5 branch, but it is closer to the edge. If you go a little further, you will enter the doldrums.
"Master Xie Wen, this is it." The navy responsible for picking up Xie Wen put down the gangplank and then extended his hand to lead, "We have prepared enough food and wine on the island, you can enjoy it to your heart's content."
Xie Wen did not rush to get off the boat, but stood by the boat and looked out.
Before he came, he also learned a little about Oberstein Island. This island is an ordinary island in the Grand Line. It is neither a transportation hub nor has any special valuable specialties.
And because of its small area, there is only a small town with a small population on it, but it belongs to the territory of a certain member country.
But as of now, this place is probably requisitioned.
As for why this place was used as an ambush site... It can't be because there are few indigenous people here and it is easy to evacuate, right?
Without the Cat Think Tank, Canglanxing didn't have much clue, so after thinking for a while, he gave up decisively and walked down the gangway...
Huh? Right!
Since it was an ambush, shouldn't we be careful? Why did they send a warship to pick me up? If they did the same to the other Shichibukai, wouldn't they have been exposed long ago?
Moreover, in addition to the warship that picked up Xie Wen, there were several other warships that were docked at the dock, not afraid of being exposed at all.
Xie Wen frowned when he noticed something was wrong, but he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he followed the navy that picked him up and walked into the town.
"Canglanxing! Give me back my sword!"
As soon as he entered the town, the angry Cavendish ran over.
Xie Wen looked at him following the voice, and soon found that he had a new Western sword on his waist, but compared with "Durandel", this sword looked much more ordinary.
"Heh!"
Xie Wen sneered, and didn't bother to pay attention to him. He directly retracted his gaze and walked towards another Shichibukai who came out to greet him.
"Long time no see, Jinbei."
"Thank you for everything you have done for Fishman Island, Xie Wen!"
Jinbei gave Xie Wen a warm hug, "How is Princess Shirahoshi recently? Please let me know if you need any help!"
Seeing that Xie Wen completely ignored him and ran to greet Jinbei, Cavendish's hand subconsciously rested on the hilt of the sword. His handsome face changed several times, and finally let go of his hand in dissatisfaction, and then turned away angrily.
However...
His dual personality can really be controlled.
Although he didn't look at Cavendish directly, the steady Blue Star still activated the observation Haki just in case.
Just now, Cavendish's aura had increased significantly, just like when his second personality appeared, and it lasted for quite a while, but Cavendish remained conscious, and did not fall asleep immediately after his aura subsided...
Obviously, Xie Wen's previous guess was correct.
"Do you have a grudge against him?"
The conflict between Xie Wen and Cavendish was not reported, so Jinbei naturally did not know the grudge between the two.
"No grudge," Xie Wen shrugged and told the truth: "He came to trouble me on his own. If Aokiji hadn't intervened suddenly, he would have been killed by Seijuro a few months ago. Now he just lost a sword and became a Seven Warlords of the Sea... He should be happy."
"Okay... So he has a grudge against you..."
After Xie Wen said this, Jinbei understood that this new Seven Warlords of the Sea was not taken seriously by Xie Wen at all. It was just Cavendish who wanted to trouble him unilaterally.
Jinbei didn't care too much about Cavendish. After all, to put it bluntly, the other party was just a supernova who had just made a name for himself this year. Although his bounty was higher, Jinbei didn't think that the other party's strength could pose any threat to himself and Xie Wen.
"Let's go! Let's go have a good drink!"
The blue-skinned whale shark patted Xie Wen on the shoulder, and then pulled him towards the center of the town.
Along the way, Xie Wen saw almost all navy people. Sure enough, the civilians here had been transferred away.
But...
These navy officers didn't seem very nervous, and they didn't seem to have arranged any defensive measures.
In addition, he had just asked Jinbei.
Like himself, Jinbei was also brought here by a warship, but Tenyasha seemed to have "flown" here by himself, and Hawkeye, Xie Wen saw his small sampan at the dock...
So, with the navy's indifferent attitude, are they really going to use this place as the final battlefield?
Xie Wen became more and more suspicious.
However, no matter what the World Government and the Navy think, Xie Wen just came here to make a cameo, so he was not too curious about the Navy's real plan.
In this way, the two came to the most magnificent building in the center of the town.
"This is the mayor's house, and the navy used it to entertain us."
Jinbei explained, and then took Xie Wen in.
Well, it's true that the upper level follows the lower level. The good mayors and village heads who often appear in comics are actually a minority.
Xie Wen looked at the mayor's house, which was obviously different from the surrounding buildings. After sighing in his heart, he followed him in.
