Chapter 61: Companions, Day 6: Do we have Den Den Mushi for taking photos? ...
Companion Day 6:
Zhan Guo felt a headache coming on. After rubbing his brow, he twitched his lips as he looked at Garp, who looked furious for some reason. "What's wrong with you? Who among the Shichibukai offended you?"
Garp had a gloomy face and asked angrily, "Who on earth decided to let Hawkeye become a Shichibukai! Wasn't he a Navy Hunter before?!"
"It's precisely because he's such an arrogant navy hunter and we haven't been able to deal with him yet that we have to make him a Shichibukai. The Shichibukai system targets pirates and is beneficial to the navy." Sengoku replied in a calm tone, looking at Garp's expression with some confusion. "Didn't you know about this before? You only complained a few words at the time, so what's going on now?"
"..." Garp sighed and sat down aside.
He really couldn't tell anyone because his cute and sensible little girl was good in every way except that she was a love-brained person...
It’s bad enough that Wendy was chasing after that unruly and unlucky son of hers before, but now the new guy she’s fallen in love with seems completely unreliable… The marriage they agreed on was suddenly canceled, and she just accepted it!
Why not let her sister come out and beat that guy?! Her sister is obviously quite strong! At worst, just write a letter to Long and ask him to do it! After all, Wendy is his child too, so if you round it up, she's Long's sister. That's what that brat should do!
He really wanted to rush to fight Hawkeye, or at least give him a good punch, but Hawkeye was already one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and as a vice admiral of the navy, he couldn't move... and he was also worried that Wendy would stop him.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get. The more I think about it, the more depressed I get. The more I think about it... the more I feel like this is all Kuzan's fault! If it weren't for that guy who caused Wendy to completely dislike the Navy, would she have found someone who was the complete opposite of the Navy?
Garp thought he had figured it out. He slammed the table, stood up, and stormed out angrily: "I'm going to fight Kuzan!"
Zhan Guo: “……?”
Isn't it time to give Garp a break? Otherwise, I feel like he might not make it to retirement...
***
Wendy didn't know that Garp had completely misunderstood because of a letter from Dadan, and put all the blame on Aokiji. She was on her way to the Sabaody Archipelago at this time, sitting in the cabin humming a tune and playing with flower petals, with Hawkeye sitting opposite her.
"There are also revolutionary troops among the teleportation signs you set up. What's going on?" Hawkeye asked.
Although he was used to being alone and later found a home to stay at, it did not mean that he was completely unconcerned about the world situation. Naturally, he was also aware of the existence of the Revolutionary Army, which the government feared.
"Huh? Because Dragon is the leader of the Revolutionary Army," Wendy replied, letting out a belated sigh. She solemnly warned, "But don't spread this. I don't think it would be good for Uncle Garp."
The son of Vice Admiral Garp, known as a hero of the navy, is actually the leader of the Revolutionary Army, a thorn in the side of the World Government...
"I see." Hawkeye responded, then asked, "Then why is there Shanks's house?"
Hawkeye asked this question out of genuine confusion. After all, Shanks was his only good friend, and he knew him well enough... He had no idea Shanks even had a permanent home.
Wendy answered obediently, "It's Shanks's boat. I set it up on his boat when he came to Windmill Village."
So it's set up on the Red Hair Pirates' main ship... It seems like Red Hair doesn't know the main purpose of the wooden sign. - Hawkeye thought so.
In doing so, he specifically instructed: "If you don't intend to take Red Hair as a companion, don't use the wooden sign on his boat."
"Why?" Wendy blinked, and after asking, she figured it out herself, "Ah, is it because Shanks also smashes my wooden sign?"
It’s actually much more complicated to explain...but there’s no need to explain the twists and turns to Wendy.
Therefore, Hawkeye was silent for a moment and then nodded: "Yeah, that's about right."
Wendy immediately frowned: "I didn't expect Shanks to be such a bad guy... But then again, he didn't even want to give me the Straw Hat."
Wendy immediately reached a logical conclusion herself.
Hawkeye opened his mouth, but ultimately chose to say nothing - never mind, according to Wendy's standards, Shanks was not really a good person.
After all, her standards are centered around her own interests.
As for the Marine branch on the wooden sign... he felt that considering the relationship between Wendy and Marine Garp, this wooden sign was not a strange thing.
He was also puzzled as to why there was only a branch but no headquarters.
The road from the Seven Waters City to the Sabaody Archipelago is quite far, and it will take about half a month to sail without stopping. Wendy is obsessed with spreading her teleportation signs all over the Grand Line, so when she feels the distance is about right, she will go down to the island to make a sign.
And according to Hawkeye's suggestion, she mostly chose deserted islands, so as to avoid the wooden signs being destroyed for various reasons when people live there.
After all, in addition to those who deliberately smash the wooden signs, it is also very likely that some people who are in a bad mood just happen to pass by and kick them a few more times.
However, since these islands have no special names, and some have names but no memorable points, Wendy's naming has become standard like [Seven Water City to Shampoo Land - Transition 1].
Even Hawkeye felt that what she learned from Tom the Shipwright was not how to ride a ship, but how to build a station. The only difference was that one still needed a train, while the other could fly directly.
However, even if you go out to explore frequently, it is still very boring to be at sea for nearly a month.
Wendy's initial excitement about the new ship soon faded. Later, out of boredom, she began to check the system's records to see if there were any omissions, and also began to check the production column to see if there were any props that had been opened but were not fun to play with.
The Nightmare Amulet... well, once worn, it would instantly maintain a Sanity level of 0, triggering attacks from Shadow Creatures. It was a great way to farm Nightmare Fuel. However, she didn't have a significant shortage of Nightmare Fuel right now, so she left it alone. She could make one later, though. She was curious if the NPCs in this world would also attract Shadow Creatures when their Sanity levels dropped to zero.
The teleportation wand... while it doesn't teleport like a wooden sign with a five-minute countdown, it's a waste of purple gems to craft a teleportation focus. Without one, you'll just be randomly teleported to any location on the continent... It feels too random! If you spawn at a boss location or a high-risk area, Abigail will be killed before she can even use it! After all, she's too fragile.
After you have erected a meat statue or opened a resurrection altar at home, try using this. You might even be able to teleport to Grandma Island or Moon Island!
Alas... there is still not much to play with. I still need to find out where the underground is and activate the ancient technology to play.
Never mind, let's take it slow! Trying too much at once will tire her out, so just focus on one activity at a time. And it's too tiring to search alone, so she might as well ask Mihawk to accompany her... If he's not interested, she can ask the other friends! Now that there are no Devil Fruit restrictions on inviting friends, she can invite as many as she wants!
Wendy planned it out and thought it was perfect, so she opened the companion column with satisfaction.
Currently, there are only five companions displayed.
Companion (5/16)————
Monkey D. Dragon
Don Quixote Doflamingo【Removed】
Don Quixote Rosinante [deceased]
Djorakol Mihawk
Tom
Wendy first glanced at it to confirm the information, then nodded and closed the interface.
A few seconds later, she suddenly realized something was amiss. She immediately reopened the interface and stared in shock at the [5/16] sign behind her companion. She was dumbfounded—what did that mean?! There was even a limit on the number of participants?!
Although it's normal to have a friend status limit...but the number of places given is too small! And Rosinante is fine, why does even Dover, who we've broken up with, have to take up the friend status?! - Wendy was furious.
But after calming down, she suddenly understood where the number 16 came from - because there are 17 characters in Don't Starve, and that would make 16 if she were excluded.
Therefore, this world did not provide her with any player friends, but the positions of her friends were still fixed.
I can only say that it's a good thing that the system has a conscience and doesn't set a limit on races. Otherwise, it would be quite difficult to gather 16 companions.
Wendy closed the interface with a sympathetic look and ran to find Hawkeye. She trotted to his side, her face full of seriousness: "Mihawk, we need to be very careful when looking for companions from now on."
...You only realized this now? — Hawkeye thought to himself, but he wouldn't say it out loud. Instead, he asked, "What made you realize the importance of this?"
Wendy looked sad. "Because I realized I can only choose 16 companions, and there are only 11 spots left."
Only 11 left? Does that mean the one who died earlier and the one who broke off their friendship also count? But Hawkeye couldn't sympathize with Wendy on this point, because he only had one friend.
Hawkeye put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at her and asked, "Do you have any plans?"
"Hmm..." Wendy tilted her head and thought, "I'm going to ask Ace whether he should be my companion or my child. Then I'm going to save a spot for Law and another for Roger's crew because I want Roger's map. If I can't find anyone else, I'll probably ask Shanks... Oh, by the way, Mihawk, please share the map with me later."
Shared map? Another special ability? — Hawkeye nodded: "I see. But Roger's crew is now scattered everywhere, you can ask Red Hair later."
He had already seen that Wendy's search for companions was motivated by purpose... but there were also emotional factors involved. For example, Ace, whom she said she wanted to adopt as her child, and Law, who had once been in the same family as her but had also left.
"Then it's decided! Let's go to the Sabaody Archipelago first, then I'll go back and ask Ace, and then we'll go find Law, and then find Shanks." Wendy happily arranged all the follow-up plans over there, and then she had time to pay attention to her surroundings. She leaned over to look at the newspaper in Hawkeye's hand, looked at the photo on it, and suddenly remembered something.
"Oh right! Mihawk, Mihawk, do we have Den Den Mushi for taking pictures? I haven't taken any pictures of my new skin yet!"

The author has something to say: Even eagle eyes can't escape the fate of taking photos for girlfriends when traveling [dog head]
Well, I've finished paying it off so there won't be any more updates tomorrow, no need to wait! [shy]
