MTL - I Formed The El Cat Investigation Team In Pirates-Chapter 29 Just look at the two swords

Chapter 29 Just look away with two swords

Bacchus was still wondering why Xie Wen made such an inexplicable action. The next second he saw the other party's figure suddenly disappear from his sight. Immediately afterwards, he felt a cold and sharp feeling on his neck. .

At the same time, Xie Wen's slightly teasing voice also sounded in his ears: "Uncle Bacchus, I think it's better for you to be more serious~"

The sailors who were still making noises suddenly fell silent, and the unlucky banker who had just accepted Kelimiao's gambling money was on the verge of tears.

However, what made them feel a little fortunate was that after Xie Wen finished teasing Bacchus, he took the initiative to take back the knife on his neck, obviously to compete again.

“Brother Xie Wen is right! Boss, please get serious!”

“My salary this month is entirely on you, boss!”

 “Come on, boss! It would be too shameful to lose to a child!”

This time, all the sailors cheered Bacchus sincerely.

However, Bacchus smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn't think he could defeat Xie Wen if he took it seriously. He couldn't react at the speed just now, and it was useless no matter how serious he was.

However, it was not Bacchus's character to admit defeat like this. He drew out the Western sword from his waist, concentrated his attention completely, stared at the slightly immature boy in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "I was really looking down on you just now. Got it…then, I’m on it!”

This time, Bacchus did not dare to let Xie Wen attack first, but took the initiative to attack.

The swift thrust was blocked by Xie Wen without any surprise. Bacchus sided to avoid the opponent's counterattack, feeling a little surprised in his heart...

 Slowed down?

 Am I being let go?

A trace of humiliating anger arose in Bacchus's heart, but he quickly suppressed it with a wry smile.

If it were him when he was young, he would probably still be unyielding, but now his spirit has been almost destroyed by Lafayette. Moreover, the first person to look down on his opponent is himself, and he has no position to blame Xie Wen. .

 Bacchus quickly adjusted his mentality and turned his wrist, and the sword thrust out three minutes faster.

Although he already knew that his winning rate was not high, Bacchus did not want his loss to be too ugly.

 On the other side, Xie Wen was chopping very happily.

　　These double swords are poisonous!

I often get stuck in my head while chopping, especially after turning on the ghost transformation, and I can't hold the knife back when I'm chopping crazy.

However, on the island before, when Xie Wen used two wild boar tusks to make double swords, the beasts on the island were basically unable to withstand one round of his output.

In addition, at that time, Xie Wen didn't know that he had traveled to the world of One Piece, so he tried his best to abide by the principle of hunters not being greedy when hunting, so he couldn't get a satisfying chop at all, so he soon cut it. Boar tusks are discarded.

 But now Bacchus is the most suitable target for dual swords...

Not only is the swordsmanship he uses also known for his speed, but his strength is also just right. While he can block Xie Wen's attack, his counterattack will not cause too much trouble to Xie Wen.

As I said before, Xie Wen's combat skills are all used to deal with large monsters, so his moves tend to be wide open and close. Although he has improved during the sparring with Sanji Cat, he is only a chef cat after all. , the strength is limited.

 Besides, as a severe cat addict, Xie Wen basically focuses on defense and dodge when practicing with cats, and the effect of sparring is basically reflected in these two aspects.

Now that Bacchus is a rare target that can train his offensive side, it is naturally impossible for Xie Wen to activate his ghost form and take him away in one wave.

 The most important thing is that after struggling with Xie Wen for several rounds, Bacchus gradually became aware of his thoughts, or in other words, he saw his current shortcomings from Xie Wen's moves.

So at the end of the fight, Bacchus silently changed his style of play, from the previous back-and-forth to defensive-focused. Only when Xie Wen showed a relatively large flaw, he would use counterattack as a reminder. .

Xie Wen was naturally aware of Bacchus's change of tactics. Although the attack in his hand was still fierce, the force used was much lighter.

 “No more fighting, no more fighting.”

 After the two sides fought back and forth for almost an hour, Bacchus took the initiative to put away his knife and jumped out of the battle circle.

"I'm not younger than you, and I don't have that much physical strength." He waved his hands and walked towards the dock, muttering: "Young people today are really amazing... If I keep fighting, I will be embarrassed. "It's gone." Xie Wen rolled his eyes. One Piece's average physical strength is weird, not to mention that they don't use much strength most of the time. Bacchus has been beaten so far, not to mention sweating, and even his breath has not changed much. That's why he stopped. The reason for not fighting is because Xie Wen has gradually adjusted his fighting style...

What he muttered later is not wrong. If he continues to fight, not only will his basic attributes of strength and speed be inferior to Xie Wen, but he will even be surpassed by Xie Wen in terms of combat skills.

 As for Xie Wen's obvious improvement, in addition to his own strength, the inherited experience of those hunters also contributed a lot. There is also a possibility...

 I am actually a moderate combat genius?

Just when Xie Wen was looking at his hands in ecstasy, shocked by his talent, Kelimiao jumped over and ran over holding a large stack of Baileys.

“Brother Xie Wen, Keli has made a lot of money!” The little puppet raised Bailey in front of Xie Wen like a treasure.

"Keli is awesome!" Xie Wen immediately stopped his inexplicable narcissism and praised immediately, then reached out to rub Keli's little head and pushed back the stack of Baileys, "Since it is But if you earned it yourself, keep it and spend it yourself.”

Although he doesn't have much money left on him now, in the next period of time, Cody will be responsible for food and drink, and there is extra compensation for escorting, so there is no need to spend Maomao's money.

And Keli Miao is indeed a good child, and she will consciously hand over the money to herself.

 In fact, Xie Wen originally wanted to say something like children shouldn't gamble, but seeing Maomao being so considerate, he wouldn't say it stupidly to ruin the atmosphere. He would have plenty of time to educate him slowly in the future.

So Xie Wen picked up the little stuffed animal, kissed it twice, and then glanced sideways at Sanji, who was silent next to him...

　　"What are you doing, meow?!" The little yellow cat nervously covered his cat's paw bag, "I want to keep this money to buy ingredients, meow!"

 Tsk! No wonder they say that daughters are caring little cotton-padded jackets.

Although I didn't intend to ask for Sanji's money, the difference between the two cats was too big.

“I didn’t expect you, Brother Xie Wen, to be so powerful! Even Boss Bacchus is no match for you!”

 “Sure enough, Mr. Cody still has a good vision...”

 “What if I am the boss?”

The sailors who had lost money also gathered around him at this time. Instead of resenting Xie Wen for making them lose money, they looked happy and even flattering.

 Although in this world where the strong are respected, it is quite normal for them to behave like this, but Xie Wen always felt that there were other reasons.

 Before he could think of how to ask, the sailors themselves told the reason—

The trade fair that Cody is going to participate in this time is actually organized by a group of gangsters. Although the gangs in Xihai have a little bit of a bottom line, everyone knows how flexible that bottom line can be.

 With Cody’s character, he would not be interested in participating in such a trade fair even if it could make money. However, the organizer’s invitation was delivered directly to him, making him unable to refuse at all.

The reason why Cody recruited Xie Wen and the others was not only to help with the rescue, but also because if the gang really had any conspiracy, he would use the powerful bombs in Keli Miao's hands to create chaos, and then take him with him. People run away.

He didn't even plan to actually take Xie Wen and the others to the trade fair. Instead, he planned to find an opportunity to buy some bombs from Kelimiao, and then find a safer island to put Xie Wen and the others off the boat.

But now...

"With Brother Xie Wen here, the probability of our escape being successful is much higher!"

 One of the sailors patted Xie Wen on the back and said very unambitious words in high spirits.

Speaking of gambling, a certain fish seems to have caused a big stir recently, and I don’t know how many people will be involved.
