Five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Just as the news of Xiano's defeat of Katakuri was boosted by major newspapers and spread wildly around the world, the Hurricane also continued to explore the new world according to its original route.

In the large conference room on the first floor, a short meeting with the participation of all cadres is underway.

"An invitation to a tea party?"

Looking at what Xia Nuo put on the table, all the cadres couldn't help frowning, and Ross couldn't help but ask: "Captain, we should have formed a bond with BIGMOM this time, right, why does that guy named Katakuri still invite us to their base camp?" ”

"In my opinion, this guy probably doesn't have any good intentions."

"Do you want to fight the captain again and get some face back?"

"I can't say, the Charlotte family doesn't have a very good reputation."

…………

"You're overthinking."

In the midst of the discussion, Xia Nuo, who had just recovered from his injuries, smiled and shook his head: "The reputation of the Charlotte family is not very good, but an arrogant guy like Katakuri is not so despicable. ”

"Originally, according to my estimate, he wanted to simply take this opportunity to try to recruit our Wind Pirates to expand the influence of Wanguo and the Charlotte family."

After a pause, after everyone's eyes gathered, Xia Nuo continued, "But everyone's suspicions are not unreasonable, after all, no matter how good Katakuri is, the rest of the Charlotte family, and even BIGMOM himself, may not have no ill will towards us. ”

"So, it's okay not to go this time, if we go to participate, we have to prepare the embankment in advance."

"Go! Why not! ”

As soon as Xia Nuo's words fell, Kidd was the first to stand up excitedly and shouted: "That's an opportunity to go to the Four Emperors' base camp in the open!" Besides, if we don't go after receiving an invitation, won't others think we're scared when we get out! ”

"That's right."

Dramp next to him also rarely agreed with Kidd's opinion: "Our Storm Pirates are no longer the small pirates they used to be, and the captain is now a big man standing at the top of the world, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are paying attention to us, maybe the matter of receiving the invitation letter has been known to the outside world." ”

And Kira, who has always been calm, put forward her opinion from another angle: "BIGMOM, as the Four Emperors, has the best face, and those who have rejected her tea party invitations in the past have disappeared silently, so this time I received the invitation but didn't go, it will only set up a strong enemy for us for no reason." ”

"Good."

Xia Nuo showed a relieved smile, he was worried that everyone would persuade him not to go, and it would take some effort to persuade him, but he didn't expect that this time everyone's thoughts were surprisingly consistent with his.

"In that case......

He slowly stood up, suddenly reached out and slapped the invitation on the table, and gave an order in a deep voice: "The tea party in two months, we are scheduled to participate!" ”

"After arriving on the next island and replenishing supplies, the Tempest will set off immediately, and the target of the route will be changed to the waters of Totland!"

…………

After the meeting, the cadres rested, and the shifts returned to their posts, and Xia Nuo was told by Ivy to suspend strenuous activities for the past few days, so he could only give up the idea of going to the training room and return to his room.

"It's boring......"

Xia Nuo was lying on the bed with Erlang's legs crossed, his bandaged arms crossed behind his head, and he looked at the ceiling a little boredly, "Sure enough, after being busy, it's a little uncomfortable to be idle." ”

I had this feeling in my previous life, but at that time, I was uncomfortable when I didn't enter the Summoner's Canyon for a day, and now......

"Hmm, I've forgotten what it's like to play games." He said to himself, "I don't know if there will be a day in my life when I can touch the keyboard and mouse again." ”

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the phone bug on the table, which had just been fed and was lazily lying by the window basking in the sun, looking quite cute.

Unfortunately, it is only similar to the most primitive mobile phone, and the signal range is limited, and it is impossible to contact even the Bharati restaurant, let alone other functions.

It's really a race that hasn't made any progress at all, and it's only been this ability since it was discovered by humans, Xia Nuo lazily imagined, and he didn't know when this group of little guys would evolve more functions, if only they could become like smart phones.

Letting his thoughts drift freely, Xiano's mental state gradually relaxed, and he reached out and touched it in his arms for a while, and took out a small white piece of paper that was obviously torn.

This is BIGMOM's life card, which is a thank you gift to Xia no when Laura said goodbye and left the day before yesterday, which is undoubtedly a big help for him at the moment, not only can he keep abreast of BIGMOM's movements, but also rush to the Totland Sea as quickly as possible through the pointing of the life card.

"...... Lola"

Recalling the picture of himself being proposed to that day, Xia Nuo couldn't help but rub his forehead helplessly - he still politely rejected Lola at that time, not only because this relationship was a little abrupt and inexplicable, but also because he really had no plans in this regard for the time being.

A few months ago, Kidd was drunk in the tavern and guessed that until he realized his dream of becoming the world's number one swordsman, Xia No was not prepared to distract his precious energy into his feelings.

Although there are not a few girls he knows since he went to sea, and even Ivy, Hill and even Yarrita and others among them have a faint love for him, but this still can't change his mind.

This is not an escape, but based on the current situation and the rational consideration of the bigger future, one day in the future, he will face up to his feelings, find a lover who is truly suitable for him, and stay with him until the rest of his life.

"I still don't want to do that."

Shaking his head, pulling some chaotic thoughts back to reality, he suddenly remembered something, his mind moved, and after opening the attribute panel and glancing at it, he suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a hint of surprise.

"Tsk, I almost forgot to look at it, there are more than nine hundred......

Looking at the swordsmanship proficiency that had skyrocketed, Xia Nuo felt very relieved, before the fight, he didn't think that defeating Katakuri after a hard battle would actually bring him such a big proficiency benefit, and even loosen the bottleneck of master-level proficiency.

After all, when he killed Doflamingo, he only gained more than 300 points of proficiency, and Drought Jack, who was defeated by him a few months ago, only brought about 600 points of improvement.

Sure enough, it is worthy of the gods who knew more about pirates than Oda in their previous lives, and the so-called "emperor vice-president" level existence that often hangs on their lips......

"It seems that in addition to comprehending the way of the sword, if you want to break through to the master-level wind resistance swordsmanship, fighting with the strong is still the most important way."

After putting away BIGMOM's life card, Xia Nuo thought silently, and as the sky gradually darkened, he also felt a little sleepy, and after yawning a few times, he finally fell asleep unconsciously.
