Chapter 498: There Is a Sense of Foreboding

"Didn't the Navy give you any trouble?"

Xie Wen, who got the good news, was happy for a while and then asked curiously.

Because the Windless Belt could not receive newspapers, he did not know how far Morgans' reports had gone. However, Akainu lost his position as marshal because of this. It seems that Morgans did not simply "reveal the news."

In fact, this is the case. When Morgans reported this news, he adhered to his usual "fairness and objectivity" and gave full play to the characteristics of journalism, which elevated the importance of this matter by several levels.

Morgans even received support from several other Shichibukai, and the report also included the attitudes of Doflamingo, Moria and Cavendish on the matter.

This led to the fact that Akainu, who was originally favored by the world government, did not receive any support from the top in this incident, and the entire process of marshal replacement was very smooth.

It was precisely because there were no twists and turns in Aokiji's rise to power this time that Sakaski did not turn back from the navy and remained as his admiral.

However, considering Sakaski's character, Xie Wen felt that even if he lost to Aoki in the competition, he would not leave the navy.

Moreover, Kuzan in the manga would probably not have quit the navy if he hadn't been recommended by Sengoku and then forcibly rejected by the World Government.

Therefore, even an admiral is no different from a dog in the eyes of the World Government.

"Hahahaha! The Navy doesn't have the spare time to trouble me right now. Moreover, the Navy's failure this time requires an excuse and a responsible person. I can only blame Sakaski. He was unlucky and happened to hit it."

Morgans' words were full of pride.

At first Xie Wen couldn't figure out what he was so proud of, but he soon came back to his senses...

Based on the birdman's scheming, he must have already gotten angry with the World Government before doing him a little favor, and the World Government, apart from anything else, is still very good at deflecting blame, and as mentioned before, Basically, they don't consider the mood of the navy. They can do such a thing as pulling Akainu out to top the tank.

Sure enough, Morgans then said: "Actually, the person who wanted to 'resign' was Sakaski in the beginning, but Sengoku took the initiative to take responsibility for him. The World Government considered that Akainu was younger, It is still necessary to retain the navy's combat power, so I agreed casually, so even if it was for Sengoku's sake, he would not come to trouble me. "

At this time, Xie Wen finally felt at ease.

It doesn't actually matter whether the World Government and the Navy will come to cause trouble, and Xie Wen is not afraid of them coming to cause trouble, but the key is that their attitude determines whether he can get the power rock he had negotiated with Cody before.

After chatting with Morgans for a while and getting some other information, Xie Wen ended the call with him.

However, he did not leave in a hurry, but rubbed his chin thoughtfully...

Should I call Uncle Cody to discuss the power rock?

He had never urged this matter before. Firstly, they were in the windless zone and had no time to hand over the handover for a while. Secondly, he didn't do much when dealing with Big Mom, so he still felt a little guilty. of……

Well, I’m still not thick-skinned enough.

But the situation is different now. The unlucky guy Sakaski has already taken the blame. Even though both parties know that this is just an excuse, the matter has been determined, and Xie Wen naturally has no need to feel guilty.

However, after hesitating for a while, he still did not call Cody.

Morgans' report about the marshal's change has not been sent out yet. If he calls to urge them now, wouldn't it seem that he is too eager?

And Xie Wen also gradually came back to his senses at this time...

After the power rock falls into the hands of the two explosive cats, Kelly Meowth and Meowx, God knows what these two little guys can do. Naturally, they can delay it for a while longer. Why should I go there? Rush to rush?

After understanding this, Xie Wen decisively put the power rock incident behind him, then trotted back to the deck to start a new round of cat petting activities.

…

"Meow?"

(°ω°≡°ω°)

Kelimiao, who followed the collection team into the forest, was walking when she suddenly got excited and looked around.

"What's wrong? Keli?" Haiyuan Meow, who was digging for herbs with a bang at the side, looked over and asked curiously: "Did you find anything?"

"Hmm... Keli just suddenly had a bad premonition... It's a bit like the feeling when someone wants to trick Keli, nya."

(=ˇˇ=)

The little puppet pursed its lips and looked at Haibara Miao with a wary face.

"Sister Xiao Ai, are you having some bad idea again?!"

"I'm busy collecting herbs right now! I don't have time to trick you, meow!"

(=`へ=)

The little cat who had been wronged argued angrily.

"But, except for you, Sister Xiao Ai, no one else here would be so evil-minded, meow."

(ω)

Kelimiao, who had been tricked many times, did not easily believe Haibaran Miao's explanation and remained cautious and alert.

Regarding the accusation made by the little puppet, Haiyuan Miao really didn't have the confidence to refute, after all, she usually cheated on Keli Miao.

but……

The little cat looked around.

Kyuuba's gathering team, Huamei, Link, and...

"Isn't there Sanji?! He often teases you, too!"

(=`ω=)σ

Graybara quickly locked onto a "scapegoat".

"Meow?"

σ(°ω°=)

The little yellow cat, who was collecting ingredients he had never seen before, was suddenly called out and looked confused.

"But, Sanji didn't have any bad intentions just now, but it was you, Ai, who seemed to have bad intentions."

Klee was unmoved.

The little puppet who could sense other people's emotions was not just accusing Graybara. She actually sensed that Graybara was planning to do something bad just now.

Of course, the puppet's perception is correct, but...

"I'm not targeting you!"

(=`н=)

Graybara took out a strange-shaped mushroom and explained, "I was just thinking about how to feed this thing to Xie Wen, that idiot."

Hearing that Graybara was planning to trick Xie Wen, Klee immediately became interested. She came up and took a closer look at the mushroom in Graybara's hand.

"If Klee remembers correctly, the big sister just said that this is the 'crying mushroom'?"

(=ω=)

"Yes, it's the 'crying mushroom', a mushroom that will make you cry after eating it, and the effect is just the opposite of the 'laughing mushroom'..." Graybara shook the mushroom in his hand, and then tempted with a tone like a devil's whisper: "Don't you want to see the idiot Xie Wen crying?"

The puppet, who was already very interested in tricking Xie Wen, nodded his head at this time.

"Think about it! Klee wants to see meow! Brother Xie Wen crying, it's interesting to think about it meow!"

(=＞＜=)

Then the little puppet threw the strange premonition behind his mind, and gathered with Huiyuan Meow, whispering to discuss how to trick Xie Wen.

Sanji Meow on the side was tangled.

Of course, he liked to see Xie Wen tricked, but using food to trick people made this chef cat a little unacceptable.

However, the ecology of the investigation team has always been that Lord Xiang Feihu is first, and the cats in the infant group are second. Sanji Meow also knows that he can't stop them, so after a brief entanglement, the little yellow cat wisely chose to pretend not to hear...

Anyway, if it was Xiao Ai's sister who took action, she would also make the crying mushroom into a potion, so it wouldn't be considered a waste of food meow!

Sanji Meow silently found an excuse for Huiyuan Meow in his heart.

…

“Huh?!”

Xie Wen, who was petting the cat on the boat, suddenly shuddered and felt a chill on his back…

[What’s wrong, meow? Brother Xie Wen? ]

(=ω=)

Duduhao curiously rubbed him, and Xiaermi next to him also looked up.

“I don’t know why, but I suddenly have a bad feeling.”

Xie Wen touched the back of his neck, which was inexplicably cold, and answered solemnly.
