Chapter 180: Day 2 of the Faction War [World] It’s time to update…
Day 2 of the Faction War:
In the end, Wendy agreed to Robin's plan - Robin and Kuma went together and told Luffy to come home when he passed by Kraikana Island, so that she could give him another Den Den Mushi dedicated to the parent-child channel.
The reason why Robin was not allowed to take it directly was because the parent-child channel was dedicated and had to be bound to the system when the person himself was present.
The reason why Robin and Big Bear were chosen was also after careful consideration.
Robin herself is the one with the highest emotional intelligence among the group, and is easier to communicate with. In terms of combat power, she is at the bottom among the main members. Her departure will not pose any threat to the defense of the Eternal Continent Pirate Group. The reason why Kuma was called on is that Kuma's ability is very suitable for traveling, and Kuma's ability is also enough to repel pursuers.
Wendy specially prepared a fresh-keeping backpack for her - the raw material, bear skin, was taken from the "legacy" left by Doflamingo after she conquered Dressrosa.
Because she had a wooden sign for easy access, and a fresh-keeping refrigerator that would restore it to its original state immediately even if it broke, Wendy had never thought of using it before. Now that Robin was going out, she specially prepared it for him and stuffed him with three sets of food - meatballs, soothing tea, and dragon fruit pie.
Restoring satiety, health, and sanity are all taken into consideration.
When Robin received the travel bag, he was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face became even brighter. He took Wendy's hand and spoke softly to her as she said her parting words.
Of course, she smiled and declined Wendy's offer of a pancake boat.
Even Wendy's pancake boat can be turned into a boat suit and stuffed into the backpack before being taken out.
Not long after Robin and Kuma set off, a new headline appeared in the newspapers: [Eternal Continent and Whitebeard Form an Official Alliance! The Grand Line is in Turbulence Again!]
In the small corner of Wendy's world announcement column, Whitebeard spoke for the first time.
[I will take Wendy Carter to the top of the world. - Edward Newgate]
Everyone in the Eternal Continent Pirates was shocked when they saw this. They all looked at Wendy, who was holding Bonnie's body and flying with her while she was trembling. Then, the man and the dragon fell to the ground at the same time. They couldn't help but fall into silence.
Aokiji couldn't help but fall into suspicion - Whitebeard...could he have been deceived?
Kizaru was not surprised at all. He thought that Whitebeard also knew Wendy's true identity, which was why he said that.
As for Hawkeye...
...Although Wendy's main quest suggests she will indeed reach that pinnacle, and she likely has the ability to do so...but Whitebeard must have been deceived. — Hawkeye thought.
Wendy, feeling guilty, stuffed Bonnie, who was hurt and crying, into Kizaru's hands, ate a dragon fruit pie to recover her health, and then ran over to read the newspaper in Hawkeye's hand.
"Ah, Newgate has spoken." Wendy said with a look of sudden realization. "Then I should start the main quest..."
Wendy’s understanding of Whitebeard’s words was very simple - he was telling me the main storyline!
"Little princess, what are you going to do?" Kizaru asked.
"Hmm... in order..." Wendy's eyes lit up. "Newgate will send me to Mary Geoise, and then I'll defeat the Shadow Five first! Then I'll go free my uncle!"
***
After the newspaper was published, there was a stir everywhere.
Big Mom Pirates——————
When the members of Charlotte's family saw the newspaper, they were all shocked.
"Wendy Carter...she actually allied with Whitebeard..."
"No, let's just form an alliance. What is Whitebeard talking about!?"
"I told you she must have some seductive powers!"
"Then why doesn't it work for us!"
"Perhaps it's because the charm ability only targets the strong?"
“…”
"I, I suddenly feel that Wendy Carter is actually a pretty good person..."
"Don't pretend. Even if you pretend to be charmed, you won't be strong."
"Actually, it's not necessarily useless to us. Maybe she simply looks down on us and doesn't want to use it on us."
"You bastard! Do you look down on me?!"
A group of people were chattering and having a lively discussion.
There was no way. Although Wendy Carter had only been in the New World for a short time, she had done a lot of things! Especially with their Wan Nation, there had been both a honeymoon period and a period of hostility.
However, many people felt that their mother must have been bewitched by her - otherwise, she would have died long ago according to others if she had been so humiliated!
As a result, the four generals and several people who had fought with Wendy all knew that the main reason why Big Mom did not take action against Wendy Carter was because of her strange abilities and powerful forces.
Even if you want to get back at someone, it has to be based on the fact that you can get it back.
Wendy Carter was able to resurrect and fight. At the time, she had two formidable fighters under her command, Hawkeye and Kizaru, both top-tier vice-captains. Her allies included the Red Hair Pirates and the Revolutionary Army in secret. It's even possible that the Revolutionary Army wasn't even her ally and had originally belonged to her...
And now it's even more amazing. She has Tyrant Bear and Aokiji under her command. The other four emperors have at most two emperor vice-emperors under their command, but she has four alone, not to mention that her two sons are both very strong and are on the verge of becoming future emperor vice-emperors... Now she has formed an alliance with Whitebeard, and the weakness in the number of forces has been made up at once.
The only problem is that although he is quite famous, most of the news he publishes are gossip and magical things.
In fact, if you look closely, Wendy's own record is quite impressive - attacking the Judicial Ship, calling out to Mary Geoise, killing one of the Five Elders, capturing Kizaru once, capturing Aokiji twice, defeating Doflamingo, single-handedly holding off the Big Mom Pirates for a long time, and stealing the original text of history...
However, except for the first two, the rest have been hidden or downplayed by the World Government. Therefore, publicly speaking, Wendy's fighting ability has always been underestimated.
But now, this weakness in fame has been made up by Whitebeard - because what Whitebeard said publicly clearly means that he will step back and let Wendy Carter step on his fame to rise.
After all, Whitebeard had accumulated a great reputation over the years. And the fact that someone was willing to carry his sedan chair for him meant that Whitebeard recognized that she was superior to him.
Some people who knew Whitebeard well, knew his personality, and had their own brains, such as Charlotte Katakuri, couldn't help but wonder—Huh? Lifting her? Was Wendy Carter actually Whitebeard's illegitimate daughter?
Big Mom was reading the news in the newspaper, her expression changing from gloomy to grim. She looked a little angry, her body trembling slightly. She gritted her teeth and said, "Edward Newgate——!"
She also knew Whitebeard; after all, he had been a member of a pirate group many years ago... She had always thought him unintelligent, but she hadn't expected him to be so confused even in his old age, actually volunteering to be Wendy Carter's stepping stone...
"The person who will get the one piece in the end will be me!" Big Mom slammed the table and frowned.
However, Wendy Carter has already joined forces with the other two major pirate groups... Is she going to reconcile with Kaido and form an alliance again?
On the other side, the Red Hair Pirates——————
"That uncle named Whitebeard is quite a nice guy!" Ace looked at the newspaper, expressed his feelings, and then turned around and asked, "Hey, Shanks, you know Whitebeard, right? He's telling the truth and not lying to Wendy, right?"
"Don't worry, Whitebeard wouldn't play tricks on such matters." Shanks replied with a smile, looking down at the newspaper in his hand with a slightly serious expression.
Even though he expected Whitebeard to form an alliance with Wendy, he didn't expect Whitebeard to go this far...
"Is that so... the new era you're betting on is Wendy?"
Meanwhile, Whitebeard, the center of the conversation—
Although they were quite surprised by Whitebeard's remarks, none of the pirate groups under Whitebeard raised any objections. They all accepted it, and no one wanted to leave the Whitebeard Pirates because of it.
This was because Whitebeard was tall enough, and secondly, because Wendy had no grudge against them. Even though some people were puzzled by Whitebeard's choice, they all accepted it out of their trust and admiration for their father.
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates are even more so - they are the ones who have personally dealt with Wendy, either eaten the food cooked by Wendy or had things stolen by Wendy...Okay, the latter one sounds a bit strange, but the things that were stolen were all insignificant and they were returned, how can this not be a sign of a good relationship!
And because of Titch's defection, this group of people still vaguely felt that they had some responsibility, so they were able to accept this matter more.
Especially after Teach defected, he shamelessly called himself Blackbeard to take advantage of Whitebeard's reputation, which made everyone think that Wendy is good and Teach is bad.
"I'm afraid many people will be shocked when this newspaper comes out," Marco sighed as he looked at the newspaper. He turned to look at Whitebeard who was drinking over there, "Dad, is it okay for you to say that?"
Marco was well aware of Whitebeard's choice—his health had been deteriorating. Lately, he'd been needing constant IV drips. The food Wendy had sent him had a somewhat miraculous effect, but it was only a temporary fix. Years of accumulated injuries and the aftereffects of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit had left him in a state of decline.
At this time, he made such a decision, which means...
"What does it matter!" Whitebeard put down the wine in his hand, with an indifferent look on his face, and even laughed out loud, "Gulala, let those people guess for themselves!"
He is old and has long been a remnant of the old era. His ship will sink when the new era arrives.
And since he can participate in promoting the birth of a new era, what does it matter if he is just used as a stepping stone?
"That dark shadow has lingered for too long. It's time for the world to change."

Meanwhile, on the Navy side——
Garp was visiting Zhan Guo, who was dressed in a relaxed manner after leaving office and whose hair and beard had turned white. Garp was with Zhan Guo, and they were both stunned as they looked at the newly published newspaper.
Zhan Guo suddenly looked at Garp, who was chewing half of a senbei, and his eyes became sharp. "Are you really sure that Wendy Carter is not Whitebeard's illegitimate daughter?"
"How is that possible!" Garp said in disbelief, "How could Whitebeard have such a lovely daughter?"
Warring States: "..."
This reason is totally untenable!
But he was also confused just now. Judging from Wendy Carter's resume, if she was really Whitebeard's daughter, the World Government wouldn't have such a headache... But he's not the one with a headache now, hahahaha, he's no longer the Admiral! In this situation, Sakaski should be the one with a headache!
Akainu, who had just become the admiral, was indeed in a lot of trouble.
His previous impression of Wendy Carter was just that she was Garp's niece... Then she became Garp's daughter... Then she became a criminal and kidnapped two of his colleagues... Everything else was fine! But kidnapping his colleagues was something he really couldn't understand!
——Even Aokiji understood what was going on with Kizaru!
And now this situation...
"We can't let them continue to be so arrogant." Akainu made a decision, "Isn't Crocodile in Alabasta? Let him capture Straw Hat Luffy."
This also happens to be an opportunity to test whether Crocodile is Wendy Carter's undercover agent... As long as Straw Hat Luffy is caught, we will have the bargaining chip to confront Wendy Carter.
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Dad is really kind and generous... At that time, he also wanted to support Ace, alas.
The illustrations are in the works! I'm still pushing the artist! Although it seems that by the time the illustrations for the 700,000 nutrient solution are out, the 800,000 will have arrived... [Pigeon]
PS: There's a high probability that Cornetto will appear, but I won't be writing about the other characters in Wano Country... because I personally don't like Wano Country stories. I feel that Cornetto is the only charming one, and I can't understand the logic of the others. The only Wano Country-related character I like is Izo... It's really just that the Hakudan scatters, dies, and dies... The sea is so cruel [burst into tears]
