Chapter 607: Tezoro's Obsession
"Meow! It's the enemy!"
(=`ω=)l▄︻╤
Meowx's reaction was the fastest, and she took out her boom gun without saying a word.
Baccarat and Mr. Tanaka were obviously stunned for a moment. It was obvious that they had never been told by Tezzolo to fall out before, but acting here has become an industry for Tezzolo, so the two People quickly responded...
Tanaka, who had the piercing fruit, instantly sank into the floor. He didn't know whether he was going to move reinforcements or waiting for an opportunity. Baccarat, who was standing next to Xie Wen, calmly took off the black gloves on his hands and reached out to Xie Wen, while still pretending, said: "Everyone, please calm down. Master Tezzolo invites you to be a guest. There may be some misunderstanding here."
However, she only reached halfway when she was forced back by the flames thrown by Kelimiao.
"Although I don't know why, Keli's intuition tells Keli that I can't let you meet Brother Xie Wen, meow!"
(=`ー=)
The little puppet pressed its ears and stared at Baccarat.
"Wait, wait a minute! Sister Jinx! And everyone!" Bai Xing raised his hand and grabbed the little crazy cat from his head who was about to shoot. "This uncle doesn't seem to have any ill intentions. He may have really misunderstood. !”
"Huh?"
(=ω=)
After being reminded, the little puppet tilted his head and looked at Tezzolo, who stood still with a smile even after he finished speaking, "Yes, brother Xie Wen, Keli didn't feel that this uncle wanted to do bad things, meow. "
After passing the double "friendship certification" of Bai Xing and Kelimiao, everyone (cats) who were originally prepared for battle relaxed instantly.
Of course, except for Xie Wen, who had already guessed Tezzolo's general thoughts, because he had been extremely calm from the beginning.
Meows, who was held in Bai Xing's hand, also curled her lips in displeasure...
"Hey! No fight, meow!"
(ω)
"Do you have a special ability? It's true that the El Cat Investigation Team is close to the Four Emperors in terms of strength. Everyone has special skills!"
Tezzolo applauded, then bowed slightly to Xie Wen, "Sorry, I just wanted to make a joke with you. Just like these two little sisters said, I have no ill intentions towards you. ”
Even Baccarat, who had acted in many scenes with her boss, was a little confused at this time. She looked at Tezzolo in confusion, wondering where he was acting...
Even if it is a new play, the script must be given to her first!
Mr. Tanaka, who had disappeared before, poked half of his big head out of the floor with a confused look on his face.
It's just that Tezzolo, who has always been arbitrary, has no intention of explaining to the two of them.
"It's not a lie to say that Doflamingo is my ally before, but we are not that close." Tezzolo ignored his two men and explained the previous "joke" to Xie Wen ", "On the contrary, I have actually wanted to get rid of that guy for a long time. "
Xie Wen subconsciously glanced at Baby-5 next to him.
"I don't know much about this," Baby-5 shook his head, "Back in the Don Quixote family, I was only responsible for eliminating the family's enemies with Buffalo. Generally, such important secrets would not be disclosed. I know..."
She smiled bitterly and laughed at herself: "Who made it impossible for me to keep secrets before."
"You're not much better now..." Xie Wen twitched the corner of his mouth and complained bitterly: "How many times have you ruined my revenge plans!"
"Xiao, Xiao Ai is one of our own, how can I be considered a leaker?!" Baby-5 retorted with a blushing face.
And Haiyuan Meow also shook the cat fist at Xie Wen's cheek, while loudly echoing: "That's right! You deserve it, you petty fool!"
(=`=)
Xie Wen reached out to tickle her in annoyance, and the little milk cat was not willing to be outdone and slapped his hand back with the cat fist.
Seeing the joyful interaction between Xie Wen and Maomao, Tezzolo's face instantly became a little gloomy, but there was a trace of envy and nostalgia deep in his eyes.
"Although Doflamingo did help me a lot in the early days of my success, as I made more and more money, he turned into a parasite that only lay on my body to suck blood. But no matter what, he has always helped me a lot, so I have never been able to fall out with him. It would be great if you could deal with him for me. "
Tezzolo, who couldn't bear to see other people's happiness and laughter, decisively interrupted the fight between one person and one cat, and continued with the previous topic: "So, in order to express your gratitude, all purchases here from now on will be I'll pay for it, so enjoy everything Gulen Tezzolo has to offer!"
Xie Wen didn't even need to be reminded by Keli Miao and Bai Xing, Xie Wen knew that Tezoro's words were not sincere. He didn't even need to deduce them based on the original plot, because when the other party said these words, his movements were exaggerated and his expressions were deliberate. I no longer have the words "I'm lying" etched on my face.
So, are you testing me?
Xie Wen rubbed his chin and was a little confused about Tezzolo's purpose.
"What do you want to do? Just tell me."
If you don't understand, just don't think about it. Anyway, Tezzolo doesn't seem to be planning to play any game with him where he sees hope and then despairs, so Xie Wen didn't bother to continue thinking and asked straight to the point.
"Okay, I'll just tell you the truth..." Tezzolo put away the hypocritical expression on his face and said seriously: "I want to cooperate with you."
"cooperate?"
"That's right," Tezzolo nodded and explained: "Although Doflamingo has taken a lot of benefits from me, in fact, he, or more specifically the Don Quixote family, still treats me. It’s helpful.”
"You should also know that in addition to the Shichibukai, Doflamingo also has the identity of Joker, an intelligence dealer and broker in the underground world, and he is also a slave... um... arms dealer, so he has always been He also provided support in various aspects such as intelligence, talents, and force to Gulan Tezoro. Without him, Gulan Tezoro's development has actually been affected to some extent. "
Although Tezzolo swallowed the rest of the content, Xie Wen already understood what he wanted to say, and his eyes turned cold when he looked at Tezzolo.
However, Tezzolo did not notice this. Instead, he looked at Xie Wen with eager eyes and his tone gradually became excited: "Although you don't have a fixed territory yet, with your strength, you want to form a Bitangji... The greater power of the Hode family is just a piece of cake. I can even provide you with the initial investment and more rewards than Doflamingo! And don’t you like collecting famous swords and devil fruits? I can do that too? Help with collection!”
Having said this, Xie Wen finally figured out Tezzolo's true thoughts.
His previous guess was slightly off. Tezzolo was not trying to break the rules, but was really twisted into a character who firmly believed that "money can rule everything". The reason why he expressed goodwill to Xie Wen was indeed because he killed The Celestial Dragons, but also want Xie Wen to replace Doflamingo and become his ally in the outside world, and then further develop and make money.
But this idea of his, Xie Wen could only say... was too naive.
Moreover, Xie Wen had no interest in Doflamingo's previous arms and slave business.
"If you cooperate with me, aren't you afraid that the Tianlong people will come to you and cause trouble?"
Xie Wen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and asked with a sneer.
"Just hide it from them!" Tezzolo was very confident in the power he had now. He waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "And even if they find out, it's not a big deal. Just give him a little more money. , those Tianlong people who only know how to enjoy will not pursue it!"
It's normal for Tezolo to have such thoughts, because the Celestial Dragons he has always been in contact with are all types like Saint Charros. Xie Wen even suspected that he didn't know the existence of the Knights of God at all.
