Chapter 027: Dark Raven

A cookie doesn't prove anything, but it could be the most important clue one day in the future.

After returning to Dressrosa, in order to avoid startling the snake, Hailan did not tell Lieutenant General Tsuru and Karp about the cookies, but conducted an investigation without a trace alone.

followed the clues one by one, and the final target pointed to a high-end hotel.

According to the owner of the hotel, there was once a group of very terrifying people who lived here.

According to the boss's description of their appearance and clothing, Hailan can roughly understand that there are three of them: Doflamingo, Pica, and Torrebol.

Only the fourth man dressed in red, Hai Lan, had not seen it.

But that man went to the bullfight, only to lose in the final to a Mystery Sword fighter.

This has also been confirmed by the staff of the arena.

"So to speak... The Don Quixote Pirates must have someone who has never shown their faces..."

The people of the Don Quixote Pirates are superhuman beings in the eyes of ordinary people, and if they want to hide their tracks, no one will be able to notice them at all.

So the clue was cut off here.

"Aunt He, do you have any plans for the future?"

After returning to the warship, Hailan asked casually.

Crane replied lightly: "After leaving Dressrosa, I will take these two pirates to the G1 branch of the Navy in New World for interrogation first, and you and Karp will go directly back to the Navy Headquarters." ”

"Why don't you just bring it back to the headquarters?"

Hearing Hai Lan's doubts, Crane glanced at Hai Lan deeply: "Hai Lan, there are some things, it's better for you not to ask too much now." ”

Hailan nodded, he didn't need to embarrass the crane.

After all, you can ask Sengoku directly when you go back...

……

At the Navy Headquarters, in the office of the Admiral Sengoku, Karp is eating a doughnut while boasting about the heroic deeds of him and Hailan in Dressrosa to teach the Eight Treasures Naval Army.

Sengoku has always acquiesced in Karp's provocations.

After all, the official pirates of those world government member countries can only use this method to teach them a lesson.

I don't know what's wrong, Sengoku, who has always been busy on weekdays, didn't kick Karp out today, but leaned on his seat and listened to Karp's bragging.

His eyes still flashed on Hailan's body from time to time, and there seemed to be a trace of envy in his kind and approving eyes.

If only Roxinandi could have a fighting talent like Hailan, then his undercover operation would not need to be so worried.

Sengoku thought so in his heart.

I was most afraid that the air would suddenly be quiet, and Karp would have nothing to say as he spoke, and all that remained in the entire office was the click of Karp chewing a doughnut.

"Uncle Warring States, why didn't Brother Luo Nandi come to see me?"

Hailan asked suddenly.

Sengoku is five years older than Zefa, and Roxinandi is also older than Hailan.

In terms of seniority and intimacy, as the adopted son of the Warring States, Luo Nandi can also be regarded as Hailan's eldest brother.

And Luo Nandi is kind by nature, and after learning about Hailan's childhood experience, he takes care of Hailan very much in his usual life.

Even though Hailan's strength has far surpassed him, Luo Nandi still hasn't forgotten to take care of this younger brother.

Hailan didn't know about Rosinandi's mission, he just asked casually like a chatter.

Sengoku replied with a natural expression: "Roxinandi... He has a mission, and it is estimated that he will not return to the Navy headquarters for a long time. ”

Won't be back to the main office for a long time?

A trace of doubt rose in Hailan's heart, because in his memory, Roxinandi rarely performed difficult tasks.

So Hailan asked again, "What is the task?" ”

"Oh, the slave trade in the Chambord Islands has been a bit serious lately, and I asked Rosinandi and Lieutenant General Polusalino to investigate together."

Smelling that something was not simple, Hai Lan deliberately continued to ask: "Chambord Islands, aren't they very far away?" ”

"It's definitely not far away, it's just a bit troublesome, you know, the slave trade is always inseparable from the Tianlong people."

"Okay, okay, I've got a lot of things to deal with here, you two go out first."

The Warring States issued an eviction order.

Hai Lan said directly unwillingly: "Maybe some information on my side may be helpful to Brother Luo Nandi." ”

"Hailan..."

Sengoku stared at Hailan's determined gaze for a long time before whispering, "... What did you find..."

Sengoku grew up watching Hailan, and he knew that Hailan was very smart and curious, which was an advantage, but in some cases, it was also a disadvantage.

"Karp, you go out first."

"Huh? Let me out? ”

Karp was stunned: "Do you really want me to go out?" ”

"Really, you go out first!"

Karp muttered a few words in dissatisfaction, but walked out of Sengoku's office.

Karp is not as curious as Hailan, and there are some things that Sengoku doesn't want to tell him, so he doesn't bother to listen to them.

If only Hailan were as obedient as Karp.

Although he thought so in his heart, Sengoku knew that it was impossible.

"Come on, Hailan, what did you find?"

"I found a cookie while chasing Doflamingo's men, and that's it."

Hailan placed the cookie that had fallen from Virgo's face on Sengo's desk.

Warring States was choked by Hailan's anger: "What can this be for?" ”

He thought Hailan knew some secrets.

"The point is that this person deliberately avoided his true appearance from the first time he saw me, and later in the investigation, he did not find a trace of information about this person."

"Uncle Warring States, you know, after the beginning of the era of pirates, countless undercover agents sent by pirates have been found in the navy, so I want to say that if there is suddenly a newcomer in the headquarters who likes this kind of biscuits, you need to be careful."

Hailan's words reminded the Warring States, who were busy all day, that he would arrange an undercover agent for the Don Quixote family, and Doflamingo could also place an undercover agent in the navy.

While a single cookie doesn't investigate anything, it does have the potential to expose the enemy at a certain moment.

"Uncle Warring States, this cookie is left for you, remember to say hello to Brother Luo Nandi for me."

A few days later, a large-scale prison break broke out in the Navy's G1 branch in New World.

An odd mute man dressed like a crow wounds a guard and escapes from the branch cell.

Those who escaped together in the chaos were Pika and Diamanti, who had just been captured by Lieutenant General Tsuru.
