Chapter 573 - 573 The Moving Island

Looking at the previous bounty posters, they were clearly sorted by the amount of the reward. As a member who did not appear at Mary Geoise, Robin actually ranked just below Sherwin and the two Logia Felynes...

Sure enough, compared to those Celestial Dragons, the World Government—or rather, Imu—is still more concerned with people and things related to the Void Century.

So what exactly is written on them? To make a figure like Imu, who has arguably already ruled the world, so secretive... yet they haven't made a dedicated effort to collect them all.

It quite a mystery.

As before, Sherwin handed Robin wanted poster to her and continued looking down.

The bounty poster following Robin was still not one of the Felynes who participated in the Levely, but rather Suika Meow, who had joined relatively late, with a bounty of 470,000,000.

As a Felyne who fought Jack "the Drought" one-on-one at the G-5 base, a bounty of less than 500 million was clearly on the low side.

However, because the G-5 base had been completely destroyed by Kaido, and the only survivor, Vergo, had been knocked unconscious early on—and was later exposed as Doflamingo spy—this achievement was only reported by the World Economic News at the time without any actual evidence.

The Marines deliberated for a long time before settling on this amount, which seemed neither like a credit nor a slight.

After Suika Meow was Link Meow, who was "priced" at 240,000,000, also a bounty far below his true strength...

It can only be said that the appearance of the Felynes is far too misleading, and Sherwin early principle of keeping a low profile made it difficult for the outside world to grasp their true power.

Moreover, among the many Felynes, Link Meow presence wasn't particularly high it was only because he and Sanji Meow teamed up to take down a CP0 member this time that the World Government began to take him seriously.

Additionally, back at Marineford, he and Hiko Seijuro Meow had sparred with Hawkeye, which was likely one of the main reasons his bounty ranked so high.

Following closely behind Link Meow was the wanted poster for "The Black Samurai" Hiko Seijuro Meow, who did not participate in the Mary Geoise incident, with a bounty of 200,000,000 Berry.

The reason Hiko Seijuro Meow ranked ahead of other Felynes who participated in the incident, aside from sparring with Hawkeye at Marineford, was likely due to the certification of Garp, Cavendish, and Aokiji. Furthermore, in the early days of Sherwin arrival, Hiko Seijuro Meow was one of the main forces against those pirates.

Therefore, compared to the other Felynes, the Marines had a better understanding of Hiko Seijuro Meow strength... it was just that they didn't know enough, or rather, their intelligence was somewhat outdated.

After all, the Felyne rate of improvement was not any slower than that of Sherwin, the Hunter.

And after Hiko Seijuro Meow, it was the turn of Sanji Meow, who had teamed up with Link Meow to deal with CP0, with a bounty of 120,000,000.

However, the little yellow cat was very dissatisfied with his bounty...

"Why do I only have this much bounty, meow?! That idiot Ace has over 300 million, meow!"

(=`н=)

Since the Flame-Flame Fruit had been eaten by Klee Meow, Ace current bounty was a bit lower than it originally would have been. However, when it came to actual strength, it was hard to say which Ace was truly stronger.

Also dissatisfied with her own bounty was "Berserk Blue Cat" Jinx. The little crazy cat bounty was only 79 million, which happened to be the same amount Robin received when she was eight years old.

"If it weren't for taking care of you, I wouldn't have been looked down upon by those guys, meow!"

(=`ω=)ジ

Jinx huffed and patted Shirahoshi head, making excuses for herself...

Actually, it couldn't entirely be called an excuse. While at Mary Geoise, she really had stayed much quieter for Shirahoshi sake.

When the fighting broke out later, she had mainly focused on providing rear support. If she hadn't blown up a CP agent, her bounty would likely have been even lower.

"Ehehe~ I'm sorry~"

As they spent more time together, Shirahoshi was no longer as timid as she had been at the start. She reached out, picked Jinx up, and placed the cat by her head to gently nuzzle her.

The previously angry little crazy cat immediately stopped acting up, though her expression still looked a bit disgruntled.

"Forget it, forget it. It not like you set this bounty, meow."

(=`へ=)

Jinx crossed her arms and sat cross-legged in the palm of Shirahoshi hand. Her eyes darted around as she plotted when to find an opportunity to cause a massive scene so the Navy would be forced to raise her bounty.

Even without seeing her "troublemaker" expression, Sherwin could more or less guess what was on the little crazy cat mind. Though he knew it might not do much good, he still stepped forward to offer some comfort...

"Alright, alright, Huamei bounty is even lower than yours. Do you dare say you're stronger than her?"

Although Huamei Meow had followed Sherwin to Mary Geoise, she hadn't made a single move, and her previous actions had never been discovered by the Navy...

Aokiji had witnessed Huamei Meow Conqueror Haki, but he had mistaken it for Sherwin.

This resulted in Lord Huamei bounty being even lower than Baby-5, at only 13 million Berries. Fortunately, Huamei Meow herself didn't care much about such things.

As for Baby-5, who had been given the title "Armed Maid" by the Navy, she received a bounty of 20 million Berries in her capacity as Sherwin personal weapon...

Well, that was roughly the price of one of the 21 Excellent Grade.

"Hmph! Doesn't that just prove those Navy guys have no eye for talent, meow?!"

Sure enough, Sherwin words failed to fool Jinx. The little crazy cat waved her small fists and said huffily, "Anyway, I'm definitely worth more than this measly bounty, meow!"

(=`н=)

"Ahem... well, there no need to be so angry. Look, Haibara isn't angry."

Sherwin continued to offer comfort.

Haibara Meow, who he had just mentioned, had the lowest bounty in the entire Hunter group—a mere 1 million Berries.

This was likely only raised to that amount because the other Felynes were so extraordinary otherwise, there was a high probability she would have been treated like Chopper from the Straw Hat Pirates, viewed as a mascot and given a bounty of only a few hundred or a thousand Berries.

Although Kaido Meow was even more mysterious—with the Marines not even knowing his name—his bounty was 5 million Berries, thanks to his completely different physique and majestic appearance compared to other Palico.

Meanwhile, Purah Meow, who was also a research Felyne, had a bounty slightly higher than Huamei at 15 million Berries. Furthermore, the note on her bounty poster was the same as Klee Meow: "Only Alive."

Clearly, in addition to coveting Klee Meow bomb technology, the Marines were also very interested in Purah Meow shipbuilding skills.

"Hmph! What so good about having a high bounty meow? I'd prefer it if others underestimated me meow! And then... hehehe..."

The kitten, who had been dragged out of the laboratory by Klee Meow, rolled her eyes at Sherwin and then covered her mouth while laughing in a way that was both cute and sinister.

Well, that was certainly something this little dark-hearted one would say.

If some fool actually believed the bounty poster and "luckily" ran into Haibara Meow...

Tsk, tsk, tsk—that would truly be something to look forward to.

After all, from a certain perspective, Haibara Meow was even more dangerous than the two bomb Felynes, Klee Meow and Jinx.

"Hmm... I still prefer it when people are startled the moment they see my bounty meow!"

Unfortunately, Jinx personality was completely different from Haibara Meow rather than playing the pig to eat the tiger, she preferred to be the center of attention.

However, thanks to Haibara Meow banter, the little crazy cat finally stopped staring fixedly at her own bounty.

Yet, just as Sherwin breathed a sigh of relief, Dodo Advance, who was perched on his head, became upset.

"Brother Sherwin, why isn't there a bounty poster for Dodo Advance meow? I want to be just like everyone else meow!"

"Uh... generally speaking, they don't issue bounty posters for a ship," Sherwin explained, picking up the pouting Ship Spirit and squeezing her little paws.

"But I can fight too! Back at Mary Geoise, if it wasn't for me, it wouldn't have been so easy for everyone to evacuate meow!"

Dodo Advance muttered quite indignantly.

"The problem is they don't know that, and you refuse to appear in front of other people."

Sherwin continued to squeeze her paws to coax her. "Besides, the Dodo-Burrs and Lunastra summoned by your sister Klee, as well as Sherry who stays by Haibara side, and the Dodo in my hand—none of them have bounty posters either, right?"

Shirahoshi, who had been "abducted" along with them, chimed in from the side, "That right, that right! There isn't a bounty poster for me either."

"How could that be the same! You aren't Felynes meow!"

(=`н=)

Dodo Advance, who hadn't been fooled, continued to be unhappy.

At the critical moment, it had to be the little angel Klee Meow.

"Look, Dodo Advance, you have a bounty poster too meow!"

(=`=)

The little Ragdoll held up her own bounty poster, except the Klee Meow on it had been colored with a paintbrush to match the fur of a tabby cat. It looked just like Dodo Advance wearing Klee Meow clothes.

"Klee big sister is the best meow~"

(==)

Deeply moved, Dodo Advance lunged toward Klee Meow and hugged her head, giving her a flurry of licks.

Seeing that Dodo Advance was finally no longer throwing a tantrum, Sherwin quickly brought the open Hunter manual before her. He pointed at a small dot that happened to be wandering nearby and said:

"Next, let go see what going on with this island that keeps scurrying all over the place!"
