I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates.

Seeing Caesar and BIG·MOM get in touch, Xie Wen quickly pricked up his ears.

And there was no intention to hide it from others, so he easily heard the content of Caesar soliciting sponsorship from BIG MOM...

It was slightly different from what Xie Wen had originally expected. Caesar did not mention anything related to human gigantism, but was promoting his "Kingdom of Death" which was still under development.

Yes, although the transformation to giant was the "PPT" that Caesar used to fool BIG MOM, he actually didn't know BIG MOM's needs in this regard at the beginning.

Although BIG MOM has a brutal personality and is called a "natural destroyer" and an "evil god", she is able to establish "Ten Thousand Kingdoms" with the goal of "a home where all races and tribal members live in harmony". So she may not be so interested in the "Kingdom of Death" which has mass-destructive poison gas bombs.

In addition, given BIG MOM's impatient personality, she prefers to get the finished product directly, just like what she did to Germa 66 in the future, killing people and stealing their technology without considering whether they could come up with something better later.

If Caesar's target of sales was Kaido, the possibility of success would be higher. In the comics, Jack did use the poison gas bombs made by Caesar to attack the Furry Principality.

That is, provided he doesn't run into Quinn, a former colleague of MADS.

Sure enough, things developed just as Xie Wen expected. Big Mom had no interest in Caesar's big cake. She picked up a large plate of snacks and poured them into her mouth, waving her hands and saying vaguely: "Even without that kind of weapon, my children can easily destroy the enemy... If you don't have any other special skills, then get out of the way and don't disturb me while I eat!"

Caesar's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly rubbed his hands and said in a flattering manner: "I have a lot of skills, but I don't know which one you need."

"Oh?" Big Mom was a little interested. She stopped stuffing food into her mouth and lowered her head to ponder for a moment. "I want a technology that can help me find the Virgin Mary."

"Well... I'm a scientist, not an intelligence agent..."

Even though he had cursed BIG MOM, the client who had no knowledge of technology, in his heart, Caesar still had to keep smiling.

The second party in the period of seeking investment and funding is so frustrated, and what is even more miserable than those second parties on Earth is that even if the investment is obtained, Caesar still has to act like a grandson, because BIG·MOM, the first party, can take his life at any time...

If you think about it this way, even under such circumstances, Caesar still dared to defraud funds from the aunt. He is actually quite brave.

Xie Wen smacked his lips and continued to watch Caesar commit suicide quietly.

Then, BIG MOM made several more requests that Caesar thought were simply embarrassing, but he could only continue to smile and say that he was powerless...

In the end, it was BIG MOM who became impatient first.

"I can't do this, and I can't do that..." She put her gloomy face in front of Caesar, with a fierce light flashing in her eyes, "Are you trying to play a trick on me?"

Du Field, who brought Caesar here, hid aside early, secretly regretting why he had meddled in other people's business.

"No, no, no! How dare I?"

Caesar, who was almost paralyzed by fear, shook his head like a rattle.

"Well, I'll give you one last chance..." Big Mom grinned, revealing a creepy smile, "I don't care whether you use science and technology or any other means, as long as you can bring giant residents to my Ten Thousand Kingdoms, I will forgive your actions just now, but if you can't do it..."

"I can do it!" Under the threat of his life, Caesar immediately screamed and replied: "I can do it! I know a technology that can make ordinary people giants, but this technology is not mature enough. It needs funds and time to conduct more experiments and research!"

“Mmmmmm!” Big Mom was just like a little kid, her expression changing instantly. She laughed and said, “Money and time are not a problem! As long as you can bring me some giants!”

So this is how the deal between Caesar and Big Mom came about...

Xie Wen sighed secretly. He had originally thought that if the two sides had not reached an agreement so quickly, he could have killed Caesar without Big Mom knowing. But now, although he still had to kill him, the risk of being tracked down by BIG MOM afterwards also increased.

"Meow?"

(=w=)

After running out for a walk, Klee came back with a bunch of delicious food to share with everyone. She tilted her head to look at Canglanxing who seemed to be in a bad mood, and then looked at Caesar who was happily quoting a price to BIG MOM...

"He's lying, Klee can sense it, meow!"

(=vv=)σ

The little puppet put down the snack in his hand, pointed at Caesar and said seriously.

"Hmm?" Big Mom's expression changed again. She looked at Caesar sinisterly, "Is what she said true?"

"Of course not!" Caesar retorted, jumping up and down. "She is slandering me! She is slandering me!"

After a brief panic, Caesar quickly found a way to fight back, "This is advanced science and technology! What can a little fur-tribe child like her know?!"

"Klee doesn't understand any technology..." The little puppet put his hands on his hips and answered confidently: "But Klee's observation Haki can tell that you are lying!"

＜(=`へ=)＞

"What a ridiculous excuse!" Caesar, who knew a little about observation Haki, laughed confidently, "You don't think Big Mom will believe such a childish excuse, do you?"

He turned around triumphantly, only to see a face even more terrifying than before.

"You, you you you...you didn't really believe what she said?!"

Although Caesar knew about the existence of Haki and had studied it for some time, his understanding of Haki was still too one-sided, so he was not aware that advanced Observation Haki also had various derivative abilities.

But it's different for a strong person like Big Mom. Not to mention lie detection, her son Katakuri's observation Haki can even foresee the future! And she has also seen Roger's "listening to the voice of all things" that can read information from historical texts.

What's more, in Big Mom's eyes, children are the least likely to lie, so she is naturally more inclined to believe what Klee said.

Although he didn't know the specific reason, Caesar could understand that the current situation was not favorable to him, so he quickly defended himself: "My 'Giant' technology has the support of the World Government! If Vegapunk hadn't framed me, this technology would have been successfully developed long ago!"

"Your giantization technology?" Huiyuan said slowly, "This doesn't seem right, right? Hasn't this experiment been conducted by Vegapunk? And according to the data left on Punk Hazard, this experiment was ultimately declared a failure and was stopped long ago, meow."

"!!!"

Caesar stared at Huibara Meowth with wide eyes, pointed at Shirley above her head and shouted angrily: "It turned out to be you who went to Punk Hazard before! It is my Smythe, right?! You were lying to me before?! Smythe, you bastard! You actually betrayed me! If it weren't for..."

"So...what they said is true? You were lying to me just now, right?"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the murderous voice of Big Mom behind him. Caesar instantly woke up from the anger of being tricked by the cat...

“Oops, oops!”

Caesar turned around with sweat all over his forehead and looked at Big Mom, stammering in his last struggle, "Please, please listen to my explanation..."

But the answer he got was——

"Life...or...Truth?!"
