MTL - I Formed The El Cat Investigation Team In Pirates-Chapter 73 Options

Chapter 73 Alternatives

 “Keli, you are really great!”

Xie Wen also didn’t expect that just on a journey to find a knife, he would actually get an additional Devil Fruit. Asking Kelimiao for blessing before was indeed the right choice!

 After using his Kato Cat Hands to give Kelimiao a full-body massage, Xie Wen took a closer look at the devil fruit in the treasure box...

This is a brown fruit that looks a bit like a pear. Except for the spiral pattern, it is almost the same as ordinary fruits.

 First of all, excluding the natural type, most of the shapes of the natural type are very obvious, and one can easily guess their abilities without even needing a picture book. In other words, the shape of the dark fruit is slightly more "normal".

As for whether this fruit is a superman or an animal, Xie Wen can't tell. After all, these two fruits have two situations: they look very ordinary and they look very special. Even the protagonist Luffy eats it. The Sun God Fruit looks like a round cantaloupe.

but…

 Labour and management are at stake!

 In fact, if necessary, Xie Wen can also ask for a Devil Fruit illustrated book from Morgans, but this kind of illustrated book is already included in his hunter's manual.

Xie Wen took out the manual and turned to the weapons page first.

As he expected, as the information about the first sharp knife appeared in the weapon illustration, and then the weapon page flashed with white light, Xie Wen obtained the second silver-gray summoning coupon fragment.

 Sure enough, there are additional rewards for weapons that obtain the Great Knife level for the first time.

 Then he turned to the Devil Fruit Illustrated Page again. Unfortunately, this time there was not even a fragment, not to mention the entire summoning ticket...

The previous Burning Fruits gave you a whole summoning ticket, and there were additional rewards for weapons of different levels and different types of monsters. But this time, the Devil Fruit is obviously from other types, but it doesn’t even have a fragment... This is broken. Are the rules in the manual too arbitrary?

 “Tsk!”

 Smacking his lips in disappointment, Xie Wen clicked on the information about this fruit—

 Animal department·Niu Niu fruit·Reindeer form.

　Ah this…

Xie Wen scratched his head. Doesn’t this mean that as long as he eats this fruit, he can COS Chopper?

He tried hard to imagine himself in Chopper's form standing together with the Elu cats...

　　Ah—that picture is too beautiful, I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it.

"Sanji, are you interested in this reindeer fruit?" Xie Wen thought for a while and asked Sanji, "This thing should be able to enhance the power of your kicking skills."

 “I don’t want meow!”

Unsurprisingly, Sanjimiao rejected him with a look of disgust.

佳亍口巴…

Xie Wen put away the devil fruit and planned to sell it with Kentaur in the future. After all, it was worth hundreds of millions of beli.

 After plundering the treasures of the Suwak Pirates, Xie Wen opened the Hunter's Manual again...

 He wanted to check the map to see where the nearest naval base was so that he could exchange all the pirates for bounties.

However, just when he opened the map page, he suddenly noticed a small change in the progress bar below the map—

The progress bar itself is still the same, with one section of actual progress and one section of longer virtual progress. However, next to the progress bar, an upward arrow appeared at some point, and below the arrow, there is a horizontal " ["symbol.

Isn’t this a sign of uploading?

 Before Xie Wen could think more, his fingers took a step ahead of his mind, and following his newly raised curiosity, he pressed towards the icon...

The first time his finger touched the upload icon, Xie Wen already began to regret it.

Because this looks like the kind of settlement type task, generally speaking, different rewards will be given according to the degree of completion. Xie Wen had only seen the map before arriving at the island. At that time, there was no such icon, so that is…

ˆXie Wen chose settlement when the “mission conditions” had just been met.

But at this time, there is no point in regretting it, because the response of the Hunter Manual is extremely fast. As soon as Xie Wen clicked his finger on it, the upload icon disappeared, and the usual "Uploading", "Loading" and the like appeared. No prompts or signs appeared, let alone a "Confirm upload" dialog box.

 It’s just… very inhumane.

As the upload logo disappeared, the map page in the manual also glowed with white light, and then, a familiar sea-blue summoning coupon fragment appeared in the folder.

 Well, this is what I expected.

Xie Wen picked up the fragment without much emotion. It was indeed the second fragment related to the progress of the map. If you choose to upload when the progress is 100%, you might be able to get a complete summoning ticket...

Xie Wen put away the fragments with some annoyance, and then looked at the map page that no longer glowed.

This time, the dynamic map in the manual did not have a new progress bar, and the old progress bar did not disappear, and it did not expand into a map of the whole world as Xie Wen had guessed before. It was still just a map of the West Sea, and there was no map before. The areas that have been explored are still in a fog, and the entire map has not been opened because of the summoning ticket.

 Should I wait until I enter other sea areas before opening a new map? Or do we need to push the map's progress to 100%?

Xie Wen turned his attention to the progress bar at the bottom of the map. The actual exploration degree was 75%, and the virtual exploration degree was finally displayed at this time - 91.7%.

 The appearance of the upload icon should be related to these two data.

  To be precise, it should be related to his actual exploration level reaching 75%.

But in any case, this change is actually a good thing for Xie Wen, because it means that even if he does not reach 100% of the entire map, he can still obtain summoning ticket fragments.

 Originally, he was still worried about what to do if the map of the West Sea could not be 100%...

 Because, after wandering around the Western Sea for so long, Xie Wen could not find any maps recording the Valley of the Gods and O'Hara.

O'Hara may have been wiped off the map by the Demon-Slaying Order, and there may still be ruins left, but the relevant information was wiped away by the World Government. The specific situation is unknown to Xie Wen, because he had previously Forgot to ask Robin...

As for the Valley of the Gods, this is not necessarily the case. After all, neither Rocks nor Roger went to destroy the Valley of the Gods.

Of course, given the temperament of the Celestial Dragons, it does not seem strange to directly erase this island that is full of stains for them.

Maybe Morgans would have more accurate information, but Xie Wen never thought of asking him. After all, the two places were too involved, and his trust with Morgans hadn't reached that level yet. .

Moreover, even if these two islands are there, they must be under the surveillance of the world government. Even if Xie Wen finds it, he will probably not be able to board it. Even if he can open the map by circling the island, the possibility is not very high. .

In addition to these two islands, there are many unrecorded isolated islands in the West Sea. Xie Wen alone has encountered several during the process of drawing the map, including the station of the Suwak Pirates at their feet. , and it has not been recorded on the map.

God knows how many such islands there are beyond his intended route.

　　Originally, Xie Wen thought that after he finished running all the "pre-rendered" maps, he would have to spend a lot of time slowly exploring every corner of the West Sea, but now he no longer has to worry about this.

Although I did not get the highest reward, from the perspective of fragment acquisition efficiency, it is the wisest choice to push the virtual progress to 75% and then choose to upload, and then decisively change the map.

Of course, the premise of all this is that after Xie Wen leaves Xihai, new map progress will appear. Otherwise, he still has to open all the maps in Xihai.

 Recalling the experience of frantically running through maps in the game in order to get full achievements, Xie Wen subconsciously shrank his neck...

 When he was running maps in the game, all kinds of hidden and inconspicuous areas made his scalp numb, but now he is really "running maps"!

  I wish things wouldn't be so bad.

Xie Wen thought about it and felt that he couldn’t rely on his own luck, so...

 He picked up Kelimiao next to him and took a deep breath.

"Meow?"

The little stuffed doll was suddenly picked up and sucked fiercely. She was confused, but soon she stretched out her little head happily and started to rub against her while purring.

However, Xie Wen did not forget to add another layer of insurance after sucking the cat.

“Keli, after we finish visiting the islands on the map, we can leave the West Sea and go on adventures in other seas, okay?”

　　"Okay, okay!" Kelimiao heard this and immediately cheered, "Kelly can eat different fish again, meow!"

Hmm, it’s stable now.

The full name of Kaku’s Giraffe Fruit is also Giraffe Fruit, Giraffe Form, so I guess anyone who is a horned hoof will be classified into the Giraffe Fruit.

Anyway, I named it according to the original work. If Oda eats books in the future, it’s none of my business.

　　…

There will be new cats soon. The main reason is that it is only Xihai now. It is unrealistic to have so many cats at once. I am not good at writing group dramas. If there are too many characters, it will easily collapse.
