Xie Wen had no idea that a certain Face-Saving Fruit user was heading his way. Guided by the Monster Hunter map, the Dudu had already reached the vicinity of that Mobile Island.
Yes, before them lay an endless expanse of sea.
"Looks like it isn't Gild Tesoro's Ark Maxim..."
Xie Wen sighed regretfully, then looked up at the sky.
Although Golden Lion's islands had plenty of strange creatures, Xie Wen remembered that they seemed to have evolved through human intervention. Even if he added them to the field guide, they would most likely only update the maximum sizes or add a few subspecies. The chances of getting a Summon Ticket were relatively low.
Gild Tesoro's Ark Maxim was different. As this world's largest center of spending and entertainment, it had a high probability of having Famous Swords and Devil Fruits aboard. Gild Tesoro also had more Devil Fruit users on his side, so opening blind boxes alone should yield a Fragment or two.
But either way, since he had run into Shiki, he could only go make trouble for him first.
He just did not know how high Shiki had raised his islands. At any rate, Xie Wen could see nothing unusual in the sky with the naked eye.
"Huh? So you wanted to go to Gran Tesoro, Admiral, meow?"
(=ω=)
Hua Mei Meow twitched her ears and turned to Xie Wen. "Then why not just ask Mr. Morgans or Aunt Xia for an Eternal Pose to that place? Those pose merchants should have them for sale too, meow."
"...Huh?"
"That's the most famous entertainment city in the world. Of course its location is public, meow."
Scarlet Tiger-sama said it as though it were perfectly obvious.
Right!
Realization dawned on Xie Wen.
Damn! I got stuck in a mental rut!
