Chapter 65: Companions on the Tenth Day (Deep Water Extra Update X9) Until I...
Companion Day 10:
Wendy suddenly became arrogant - what else did she have to be afraid of?
If she wasn't afraid of freezing, she'd have taken off her bush hat and gone for it! After all, if she and Abigail attacked together, she'd even boost Abigail's damage output!
It's a pity that she hates being frozen. You know, she is also a foodie. If she eats too much, she will be unable to escape.
So Wendy just continued to be a bush quietly over there.
But she also found it very difficult to bear it, because when she looked at the icicles, she wanted to take out a pickaxe and smash the ice.
Come to think of it, we don’t have any ice storage at home...but ice melts quickly, so I’ll open the Yongxian mod and then go and make ice in large quantities!
Aokiji also discovered the problem after the attack - his attack seemed to cause no damage to the ghost at all.
But he certainly didn't think that this was the reason why ground-based units couldn't cause damage to air units. Like the others before him, he attributed it to the fact that Abigail was a ghost.
"It can't cause any damage at all..." Aokiji fell into deep thought, looking at the ghost with an angry face, and suddenly found the situation a little difficult to deal with.
There were still many nobles and Celestial Dragons whose lives and deaths were unknown in the human auction. If he continued to engage in a large-scale battle, these people would be hurt... He couldn't even let the navy in to rescue these people first.
Because he had tried it, and the white ghost attacked the navy group directly, while the others only lasted for a while before falling down. They were simply sent to die... The only good thing was that he found that these people had just fainted and were not dead.
Considering the last white ghost attack, it is highly likely that no one died here.
But this time, he couldn't let the White Ghost escape. After all, last time, he only injured a Celestial Dragon on the ship, and now he was directly looking for it in the Sabaody Archipelago. Next time, he worried about seeing this ghost killing everyone in Marijoa.
"Although I can't attack...but it has a range, right..." Aokiji retreated while estimating the distance.
He had discovered that once he retreated far enough, the ghost seemed unable to recognize him and would just float around there without attacking.
Since physical ice isn't working... maybe light can do the damage? Ghosts are probably afraid of light...
He could have contacted his colleague Kizaru, who had eaten the Pika-Pika no Mi, to come over, but if he had sent two admirals directly, the consequences would have escalated... Sigh, if he had known earlier, he should have just sent Kizaru over. What was he doing here...
Aokiji thought for a while and decided to take another approach - to look for the "Celestial Dragon who is more Celestial Dragon-like than the Celestial Dragons" as the previous witness said.
If it is true as those people said, this ghost also has a master and needs to act together with humans... and that person must be hiding in this auction.
But... he really hoped that this master was not who he thought he was.
Otherwise, Garp would probably really become an enemy of him.
Aokiji sighed, his expression becoming more serious. He ordered, "Everyone go in and rescue the unconscious people. I will hold off the attacks for you. Send the unconscious people directly to emergency care and confirm their identities one by one. Once the area is cleared, I will freeze the entire area."
Wendy's vision was obstructed by her hat as she hid under the bushes, but her hearing was still good.
After she finished listening, her expression turned serious - it was indeed a holographic game, it focused on reality and wouldn't let her just stand there and output continuously... But Kuzan was indeed a bad guy... This was probably the so-called villain BOSS!
Aokiji didn't know that the culprit had turned against Tiangang and blamed him. After he made the arrangements, he kept a close eye on the changes in the situation.
Wendy was currently thinking - should she just rush in... or make a strategic retreat first?
If she just rushed in, she could just put on the Celestial Dragon suit, and then rush out and let her sister kill everyone...but in this way she might be targeted.
She had never thought that when she killed a small monster, a boss would appear with a group of small monsters, and the blood-recovering items she brought were not enough... Although she was not afraid of death because she did not drop any items when she died, and now because of the corpse resurrection mod, she would turn into a skeleton directly after death, and no one could tell it was her. She was not afraid of being hunted by red-named people later... Ah, it seems feasible when she thinks about it this way?
When the time comes, she can just drift to Mihawk and ask him to revive her. He is so close to her. Anyway, Mihawk has not resurrected her with the Heart of Resurrection yet, so let him experience it.
He seems quite concerned about the fact that Long resurrected her. He must also want to try it out for himself! I get it! - Wendy thought.
But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she discovered an embarrassing thing - she had been out for too long and had too much fun, and the dragon fruit pies in her backpack had become stale... and stale dragon fruit pies had no effect on restoring health!
Damn it, won’t I die after just a few rounds of playing... Never mind, I’ll just stay here and endure it, and then just float away when I starve to death!
It’s been a while since I’ve been starving, and I miss my ghost state.
With this thought, Wendy activated Scare Mode for Abigail. The white ghost suddenly grew to a gigantic size, startling everyone. Some of the marines who were carrying the injured couldn't help but cry out in fear.
Aokiji didn't know that Abigail's sudden growth was just to scare you. His expression became serious and he ordered sternly, "All of you, step back!"
The sailors quickly picked up the injured on the ground and rushed out.
After the main force retreated, Aokiji once again activated his ability.
It was at this time that Wendy made a stunning appearance wearing a Celestial Dragon uniform. She jumped up from where she had been hiding before and appeared with her corruption staff in her hand.
Some of the marines who hadn't retreated saw her and cried out, clearly even more frightened than when they saw Abigail grow bigger. Then they ran even faster, and soon Aokiji was the only one left.
Before leaving, everyone looked at Aokiji with admiration – Wow, General Aokiji is so kind! After discovering that the murderer was indeed a Celestial Dragon, he still let us go and face it alone!
Aokiji took a look at Wendy's suit, and finally his gaze fixed on Wendy's face under the glass hood.
He sighed deeply. "I didn't expect it was really you... Wendy, you've caused so much trouble. I can't let you get away so easily this time."
"What Wendy? I'm a great player!" Wendy looked at her own hunger level, which had reached 0, and put her Corrupted Cane into her backpack. She shouted, "This is just the beginning! I will appear again! Until I pull my uncle down from that nightmare throne of eternal loneliness!"
After she finished speaking, she fell down as her blood volume dropped to the bottom.
Aokiji was stunned and subconsciously rushed forward a few steps, but stopped after a few steps - the blonde girl who looked like Wendy and the white ghost disappeared together, leaving only a human skeleton that looked unremarkable on the ground.
...Could it really not be Wendy? — Aokiji felt a little confused.
But before he could think about it, he felt an uncontrollable dizziness and could hardly stand.
Is it the feeling of blood loss... It's really magical. There is obviously no wound, but it can make people lose blood directly... It's as if the ghost itself is sucking blood.
Aokiji knelt on the ground, forcing himself to cheer up, and took out the Den Den Mushi he carried with him: "Hello? It's me, Kuzan. What happened here requires support and further investigation..."
***
What a cool way to exit. —Wendy thought.
She also opened the system interface and looked at the latest plot changes.
[Secrets of the Celestial Dragons ③] [In Progress]: After causing a disturbance at the human auction in the Sabaody Archipelago, you learned from the Celestial Dragons you defeated that the person currently sitting on the throne is named Im. You believe it is your uncle Maxwell, but what is the truth? Perhaps you need to investigate further...
...Why another puzzle? There are more and more puzzles these days. Shouldn't they limit the number of long-term quests like this? Never mind. At least we know the throne exists. Then we can fight it and see if the other party knows. — Wendy made a decision.
Because Hawkeye was in the Sabaody Archipelago, she flew there very quickly.
Even Hawkeye didn't recognize her immediately when he saw her floating over. He looked around and asked, "Why are you alone? Where's Wendy?"
Wendy became anxious, her eyes became angry, and she circled around him twice.
Hawkeye didn't see Wendy nearby and was a little surprised. Then he heard someone walking by who was trying to discuss something quietly, but was too excited to speak loudly. "Did you know? There was an incident of Celestial Dragons killing Celestial Dragons on Street 31!"
"Huh?! What?! I heard there was a commotion at Auction No. 1..."
"That's right! I heard that the Celestial Dragon is killing people over there! Even the admirals of the navy have been dispatched!"
Hawkeye: "..." Although there is no evidence at the moment, I still feel that this outrageous thing is related to Wendy...
He looked at the angry white ghost and asked again, "Wendy?"
All of a sudden, the white ghost's eyes became cheerful, and it even turned around in place to show that it was correct.
Hawkeye fell silent. He returned to the ship docked at No. 44, took out the backpack Wendy had stuffed him with, and pulled out the resurrection heart that Wendy had stuffed him with earlier in the morning. He handed it to Ghost and asked, "Can I just give it to you directly?"
Wendy attached herself to the Heart of Resurrection and solidified her body. After Hawkeye caught her with one hand, she sat on his arm, her hands on his shoulders, and asked expectantly, "How was it? How was the experience?"
Hawkeye: "..." What experience? Is it the experience of his roommate Tang suddenly turning into a ghost and coming back to find him?
Although his emotions don't fluctuate much and he wouldn't be frightened just yet, this is definitely not a surprise, right?
"Ah—I saw you looked unhappy when you heard about the dragon's resurrection. I thought you wanted to experience it too."
Hawkeye was startled when he heard this, and subconsciously asked, "Am I unhappy?"
"Yeah, it's quite obvious." Wendy thought for a moment before coming to her own conclusion. "Could it be because Long resurrected me first? Then next time I want to be resurrected, I'll look for you again. You'll win in numbers, and then we'll be even!"
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Hawkeye will find out in a moment that this is actually his calmest moment [sunglasses]
But it's okay, compared to him, the Celestial Dragons and the Navy are the real earthquake [dog head]
Abigail is powerful even with the mod, but she also has obvious weaknesses: she's limited in range, can't dodge attacks, and disappears when Wendy dies. If Kizaru were to come this time, Abigail would be in even more trouble... But as long as her team has control (to keep enemies within range) and shield (mainly to protect Wendy), Abigail can become truly invincible in the world of pirates [noob]
PS: This is a new update of Deep Water… I feel like my body is hollowed out… [melted]
See you at nine o'clock tonight!
