Chapter 108: Celestial Body Preparation Day 6 (260,000 Nutrient Solution Plus Update)...
Celestial Preparation Day 6:
The fact that Red-Haired Shanks became one of the Four Emperors has attracted quite a lot of attention.
It was already remarkable enough that he broke into the New World and his power grew step by step. Then, because of Wendy and Big Mom's calls, he gained everyone's attention... If you think about it carefully, it has only been a year since Wendy called out, so Red Hair's speed is still very fast.
Normally, when a young person breaking into a new world achieves this level in a short period of time, it will definitely trigger heated discussions and various speculations.
But this time, because the topic was diverted in advance, there was no serious analysis at all.
"The power of love is truly great..."
"Isn't this something to celebrate? Doesn't this count as meddling in other people's relationships?"
"To be more precise, it should be a second home."
"How will Hawkeye react?"
"I remember they fought before...was there a winner?"
"I don't know either. I didn't see it. It's said that someone from the Whitebeard Pirates saw it at the time... Does anyone here know him? Go ask him."
Of course, this group of people were just joining in the fun, but there were also some who were truly concerned - those who really set up the gambling game to figure out why Red Hair wanted to become one of the Four Emperors.
Originally it was just a joke, but after Red-Hair Shanks really became one of the Four Emperors, the nature of the bet subtly changed.
Because no one doubted that this was related to Wendy Carter, and there was no disagreement on this point, everyone was stuck between the two options of "challenging the World Government" or "challenging Hawkeye", and they were holding their breath to see Red Hair's next move.
Compared to this group of people who were making random bets, there were two groups of people who seemed particularly calm.
One group is made up of people from the Big Mom Pirates who know the truth (or think they do).
"Red Hair really became one of the Four Emperors..."
"From what I can see, Red Hair and Hawkeye have a pretty good relationship, otherwise Red Hair wouldn't be so confident in leaving his child with Hawkeye."
"Not necessarily? Maybe Hawkeye won't let him take it away?"
"It's dangerous for a redhead to venture into the New World. Isn't it inappropriate to bring a child with you?"
"We were on Rocks' pirate ship with our mom when we were little! What's so dangerous?"
"...Do you really think there's no danger?"
After a few people reminisced about the past, they started discussing again.
"But what will Redhead do next? Will Wendy Carter come to the New World to build a home?"
"What will happen after she comes here... I always feel like Mom still misses her..."
"Don't be so weird! Mom is probably just obsessed with her dessert! But how delicious is it..."
"Only mom knows the answer... Katakuri, what does mom say?" Charlotte Smoothie turned her head and asked.
Katakuri raised his head silently and looked over: "Mom told me to go to the Red Hair Pirates to deliver the tea party invitation."
"Eh?! What?! This isn't like Mom's personality... Even if Red Hair is tough to beat now, the previous hatred is still there, so Mom won't take the initiative to show goodwill..."
"The invitation is for Wendy Carter alone," Katakuri added.
However, Big Mom sending the invitation to the Red Hair Pirates was also a signal of goodwill - a sign of goodwill to Wendy Carter.
The reason why it was sent to Shanks was because of Wendy's previous message. The "keep it for me" made it seem like anything could be given to Shanks for delivery.
It is very troublesome to go to Kraikana Island, and the territories of the Four Emperors are in the New World. It would be annoying to encounter a bunch of navy if you pass through the Sabaody Archipelago. Fishman Island is also Whitebeard's territory.
But it would be very convenient if I just went to give the letter to Red Hair.
The members of the Big Mom Pirates basically accepted the fact that the two were having an affair calmly. After all, they already knew that they had a child.
Apart from them, there is another group of calm people...who have completely opposite ideas.
"Lord Carter naturally has her own plans...those men are just her pawns." Gild Tesoro sat on the golden throne, legs crossed, his body covered in gold jewelry. A confident smile appeared on his face, and his tone was firm. "Let them place their bets freely at the casino. This game is destined to be a win for the house."
Master Carter's primary goal is to create Pluto! Her identity as the daughter of Admiral Garp is merely a shield, a disguise for her player identity. Before she fell out with the World Government, Red Hair would certainly not oppose it. Similarly, Hawkeye also obeys Master Carter, and Master Carter certainly wouldn't allow them to fight. —Gild Tesoro, confident.
Of course, if a fight really breaks out, it would be because they are ignorant.
"We need to speed up the expansion of our casino even more... Contact Tom's Studio in Water Seven. I want to build a giant ship! Put it out to sea... No, the world's largest casino!"
***
Wendy was oblivious to the outside world's discussions. She was only happy about one thing—Yay! Shanks had become a Yonko! She could get another permanent item!
But Shanks' hat was still on Luffy's side, so she could only aim for the cloak.
It's just a pity that the Four Emperors should have their own territories and bases, and since these places are owned by owners, the Revolutionary Army cannot move around there at will. Wendy did not find Shanks' ship on the map that had been opened, so unfortunately she can only wait for the opportunity.
For this purpose, she even made a memo-like note and stuck it on the wall.
Hawkeye took a look as he passed by and fell silent.
Because it says this:
Building Pluto
Crash into the Sabaody Archipelago to obtain Waterwood Seeds
Go to the New World to build a second home (address to be determined)
Find Vegapunk and open the Celestial Line (PS: There is a BOSS battle, you have to fight the Shadow Five gays, call Long before the battle to inform him)
Ask Shanks for a cloak]
...Not to mention that the last one doesn't feel like it's on the same level or in the same style as the previous ones. Are the Five Shadow Gays referring to the Five Elders?
And this phone call before the fight...could it be that she was preparing to take action in the next second and then notifying the leader of the Revolutionary Army? He felt that Monkey D. Dragon's original intention of asking her to call was definitely not to notify her.
Maybe it was because he stood in front of the note for too long, Wendy walked over, glanced at him, then looked at the note, and finally looked at him with a look of sudden realization, and sighed helplessly.
Hawkeye: “……?”
"I know," Wendy said, picking up her pen and writing "Download the wedding mod and marry Mihawk" at the end of the note. She put the pen away and shook her head helplessly. "Mihawk, you're so silly! You don't have to write this down. I haven't forgotten it either."
"...Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to rush you." Hawkeye genuinely felt wronged. He clarified, not hiding his true thoughts. He lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea. "But I don't object to you making a note of this."
It was after this incident that all three children sent congratulatory messages.
It's just that everyone says it differently.
Luffy is very excited: [Wendy Wendy! Did you see that? Shanks has become one of the Four Emperors!]
"I saw it. My newspaper arrived earlier than yours."
"Shanks is really powerful! But I won't lose! I will definitely become the Pirate King!"
"Luffy, you will!" Wendy was not coaxing but thinking so seriously. The tone of her voice was the same confidence as Luffy on the other end of the phone, which made Hawkeye, who was listening at the side, really suspect that the two were related by blood.
"Ah, wait a minute, Luffy, the channel is disconnected." Wendy said and switched the line, and it was Sabo's voice on the other end of the phone.
[Wendy! I saw in the newspaper that Red-Haired Shanks has become one of the Four Emperors. Will you build a home with him?]
"No, I'm just going to get some things." Wendy said honestly, "By then I should be able to plant water trees and build my own home."
[Yeah! I also think that if it's your own territory, you still can't build on top of someone else's. Even if you two are close... Then I'll also look around here to see if there's a suitable island for you, Wendy, to build a home!]
"Sure!" Wendy agreed happily. "Will you come over to play this year?"
[I won't be going this year...because Bear and Ginny's baby Bonnie is sick, and Ginny has to take care of Bonnie, while Bear is out looking for a cure for Bonnie. Everyone is very busy, so I want to help.]
"Okay then..." Wendy said with some regret, but quickly accepted the situation. "It's okay. You can come over to play when I build my second home. I have something for you and Ace. You can play rock-paper-scissors to see who gets it... Oh, wait, Ace's calling."
Being a mother of three is such a busy job, and Wendy picked up another call.
Ace also asked about Shanks, but his attitude was obviously different from the previous two: [Wendy, you are not going to choose him over Mihawk, are you? I still think Mihawk is better.]
Hawkeye, who heard it and almost choked, said: "..." Although he was supported, he was not very happy.
"No, I must be with Mihawk for the rest of my life! No one can separate us!" Wendy said at the end in a state of making an oath.
...There's no need to exaggerate that way. — Hawkeye silently put down his tea and poured himself a glass of red wine.
「Forget it, is Mihawk here? I want to talk to him alone. 」
Hawkeye went straight over to take the Den Den Mushi and walked out to answer the call as usual: "What's up?"
"Mihawk, you have to be careful! Wendy sometimes just says nice things! But what she actually means might not be what we hear! Don't let her fool you and let your guard down!"
...How strange, this child was the first to notice this. —Even Hawkeye was a little surprised.
However, in response to what the other party said, he could only sigh imperceptibly and helplessly replied, "Whether you believe it or not, I've always been paying attention... Forget it, there's no need to tell this kind of thing to a child."
【I will be sixteen after the Chinese New Year! 】
"They're still children." Hawkeye replied calmly.
At this time, Wendy also came out, took the Den Den Mushi and started questioning Ace: "Ace, aren't you my child? Why do you always have to whisper to Mihawk?"
[I'm not...Wendy, are you jealous?]
"Of course! You two should get along better with me! Do you still treat me as your mother?"
[Of course you are...]
Listening to Ace racking his brains to try to answer and appease his angry mother, Hawkeye felt that on Wendy's side, the parent-child relationship seemed to be actually the other way around.
Oh, except Luffy. They are peers.
At first, Hawkeye just treated this as an ordinary part of his daily life.
When Wendy made the announcement and spoke in the newspaper, he didn't feel that it was much different from usual.
Shanks, I'll come find you later. — Wendy Carter
Well, this was a very normal statement, not even as sensational as what she had said before.
but……
"I think Ace is right." Hawkeye looked at Shanks' reply in the newspaper a few days later and suddenly said this.
Wendy, who was opening a box to check how much Pluto materials were missing, responded: "Hmm?"
In the newspaper, Shanks' response was only one sentence.
[Are you still coming over at night? — Shanks]
"I still wasn't paying enough attention." Hawkeye looked up, his eyes unconcealedly sharp, his voice flat and unrequited. "Wendy, don't you want to go find Redhead? Go ahead. It doesn't matter if it's not on the map. I'll go with you."
