Chapter 71 Companions, Day 16 (120,000 Nutrient Solution, plus more) Mi...
Companion Day 16:
In fact, Hawkeye was hesitant at the beginning, wondering whether he should just use the teleportation sign to go over and take a look - after all, the places Wendy would go to were all written on the sign, and even if he tried them one by one using the exhaustive method, it wouldn't take long... and he actually had some guesses in his mind about where she would choose to go.
But in the end, Hawkeye gave up the idea and chose to stay on the boat and wait for Wendy to come back.
At the beginning, Wendy trusted him and shared and told him the function of the wooden sign, so he would not use this function for his own selfish desires.
It was one thing for Wendy to be caught using the wooden sign herself, but it was another matter for him to use it without permission and cause trouble.
He believed that the revolutionary leader, a companion whom Wendy often mentioned, had similar ideas. Therefore, even though Wendy made such a big fuss, and especially since her companions would sense it after Wendy's death, he did not use the wooden sign to do anything - after all, when they were in the Sabaody Archipelago, the last sign Wendy made was "Ship", and he could just teleport here to find out the situation.
Of course, not using wooden signs to arrest people and waiting for people to come back and question them are two different things.
Although the results can easily make people feel ups and downs...
Hawkeye sighed, and Wendy opened the refrigerator, grabbed a bite, and began to chatter about her evening's discoveries. "I went to ask Long about the underground ruins, since he knows about O'Hara, and then I went to see Sabo... Sabo said he'd severed ties with his former parents, and now he can be my child without waiting for them to die!"
Wendy said happily, then paused, still thinking. "Anyway, after we get the Mourning Glory, we can try to open the Ancients. Long said there's a signpost. I wonder if it's Grandma Island... Oh, I forgot to ask Long if there's a ship that can crash into the Sabaody Archipelago! Damn, it's all because of Sabo that I got distracted... I'll go ask Long again!"
Wendy said this and turned around and walked towards the wooden sign again.
But she didn't succeed in leaving this time - Hawkeye stood directly behind her, put his arm around her shoulders and stopped her from moving.
Wendy's body fell forward after a sudden brake due to inertia. After she stood firm, she couldn't move. She could only look up at the person, her head resting on his chest, and her soft hair sticking to his skin.
"Mihawk?" she called out in confusion.
Hawkeye looked down at her with a calm expression and asked, "Wendy, is the marriage you mentioned before still valid?"
Although he had reserved more time to think at the beginning...but it was obvious that if he continued to think, Wendy would go to who knows where.
She seemed to have made a long plan and was taking it slow, but no one knew whether she might suddenly get the urge to take her ghost sister with her to surround Mary Geoise next month.
Therefore... he also didn't know when the other party might find another marriage partner that she would be interested in. Just like she did with him before.
Wendy blinked, her face still confused for a moment. When she came to her senses, she hummed, frowned, and began her usual blaming-back tactics: "Really, Mihawk, why are you going back on your word?! It was clearly you who didn't want to get married!"
"..." Hawkeye looked at her in silence, her face full of self-righteousness. In the end, he decided not to argue with her about this issue and accepted it completely. "Yeah, it's my fault."
If he had agreed at the beginning, none of this would have happened. It was indeed his fault.
Wendy thought about it seriously, even feeling a little distressed. She had already promised to take Sabo in as her child in three years... so the plan for three years couldn't be changed. But the Yongxian mod was urgently needed in six months...
If Hawkeye wasn't a friend yet, she would definitely have to bind him to a friend first... But Hawkeye already was, so there was no need to rush. After all, Hawkeye wouldn't run away... He probably wouldn't run away, right?
Thinking of this possibility, Wendy looked up at him again and asked seriously, "If I don't marry Mihawk, will you leave me?"
"..." Hawkeye didn't loosen his grip on the person, but slowly loosened his grip and replied calmly, "No."
"That's good." Wendy breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly raised her hand, placed her palm on the other person's face, and said with a smile, "I have already agreed with Sabo to take him as a child in three years, so if I want to marry Mihawk, it will take six years!"
Hawkeye was startled.
Facing the smile of the girl in his arms, his expression gradually softened, and he curled his lips slightly and agreed: "Okay."
***
"Really? Let's just leave it at that this time!" After everything was decided, Wendy put her hands on her hips and said in a warning tone, still a little angry, "Mihawk, you can't go back on your word again! Otherwise, I will really be angry!"
Hawkeye, who was blamed again, said: "...Okay."
Even though he knew in his heart who was the one who actually went back on his word, he knew that he couldn't talk back at this time.
But this time it was officially confirmed, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He asked the question he had just wanted to ask: "Why three years? Is there any significance to this time?"
"Hmm? This is the limit for loading mods," Wendy explained. "For every thousand days I live, I can load one mod. The wooden sign is the teleportation sign mod. In six months, I'm going to load the ever-freshening mod, so we can use the fresh-keeping refrigerator. And in three years, I've reserved the parent-child mod. I'm going to adopt Sabo! And then I can load the wedding mod after another three years!"
So, he was now ranked behind the refrigerator that could keep things fresh forever, and the one that could save this guy the trouble of having his kids do the work. — Hawkeye thought calmly.
He had just asked Wendy why she wanted to adopt a child, and the result was not surprising to him.
As for the mod Wendy mentioned... Hawkeye understood it to mean the development and limitation of Wendy's abilities. It seemed like each additional survival allowed her to unlock a new mod.
After planning the use of the mod, Wendy also went to check the mod details.
She is currently using four mods: Teleport Sign, Adult Size, Resurrection, and Mighty Abigail.
As for the three she liked...
[Forever Fresh Mod]: Are you still worried about returning to a refrigerator full of rotten food after a long trip? Load Forever Fresh and keep it fresh forever! As long as the food is not completely rotten, it will be restored to its optimal freshness after being put in the refrigerator. No more worrying about food rotting or being stale! Turn your famine into a complete famine of fullness!
Note: Yongxian mod is incompatible with some mods, please pay attention to mod conflicts when loading.
[Parent-Child Mod]: Feeling lonely while building a home alone? Worried about having different goals for your family than your friends? Load up the Parent-Child mod and create your own unique parent-child experience! With the Parent-Child mod, you can choose to share your resources with your children or not. You can check their status and send messages to them at any time! You'll have a private channel to communicate with your children!
Note: Children will occupy your companion slots. Please do not blindly add unfamiliar family members and be a qualified parent.
Wendy was originally planning to search for a wedding mod, but when she saw the note about a parent-child mod, she was immediately put off. What's going on? This also takes up a partner slot? Doesn't that further limit her options?
But she didn't have many partners to choose from...
Wendy frowned, thinking deeply for a moment while she was selecting her troops and generals. Sabo was her child now. She'd ask Ace about it. If he didn't agree, they could just be her companion. After all, the system plot was already there, and she wanted to see his main storyline. Luffy couldn't be her child because Dragon didn't agree, so she had to think of another way.
Then if it's Luo's turn, he must be a companion. He seems to want to be Rosinante's child rather than hers... Ah, there is also Nico Robin who knows the location of the underground ruins, and she is also a companion!
With this calculation, four positions have been confirmed to be gone, and the situation on Luffy's side is still unclear... I only have 6-7 positions left.
Be careful when choosing your companions!
Wendy decided everything, and then put away the specialties she had taken from the Revolutionary Army in her backpack - a row of various Den Den Mushi.
Hawkeye was silent for a moment when he saw this: "...You went to the Revolutionary Army and picked up a bunch of Den Den Mushi?"
"Well, since the backpack column is empty, I always feel like I have to get something back after a trip. This is something that Long raised himself. I asked him and he said I could pick it up." Wendy said, not forgetting her original intention. She said hello to Hawkeye and prepared to go to Long's side again.
"By the way, Mihawk, I'm going to ask Long about how to hit the Sabaody Archipelago! Long said that the Den Den Mushi need to be watered to keep them moist, so can you help me water them?"
Hawkeye was very calm this time: "Well, remember to come back early."
"I know!" Wendy replied.
She said so, and she actually did it... She came back about ten minutes later, but her face was confused, and it was unclear whether she had gotten the answer or not.
Hawkeye had just finished watering the Den Den Mushi and was a little confused to see her come back like this. He asked, "What did the leader of the Revolutionary Army say?"
Wendy clutched her walking stick, still dazed. "I asked Long if he had a boat capable of hitting that red tree, and he told me it was too early to destroy Mary Geoise..."
Hawkeye: “…”
He didn't know whether the other party didn't understand Wendy or knew her too well.
But Wendy didn't dwell on it. She quickly recovered and planned her destination, perfectly following her impulsive style. "Forget it, there's no rush anyway... Then our next stop is to find Shanks!"
"I see..." Hawkeye, who was feeding the Den Den Mushi over there, responded out of habit. After responding, he felt something was wrong and looked up at Wendy, "Why are you going to find Red Hair?"
"Because I want to know if Raftel is the Grandma Island I'm looking for." Wendy said this with an innocent look on her face. "So I want to find Shanks to become his companion. He's a member of the Pirate King Roger's crew, so he must have a map. It's too troublesome to find the historical text myself, so I'd better go to him directly to ask for the map. If the treasure over there contains the materials I'm looking for, I'd also like to pick it up."
Hawkeye: "...Are you going to tell Red Hair directly like this?"
Wendy: “Yes.”
After a long silence, Hawkeye finally spoke slowly: "I'll go with you... If he makes a move, you can just use the wooden sign we placed on his boat to teleport away first."
As for him, he has silently prepared for the worst - the number of his friends may become zero.

Author's words: Wendy painted a big pie, but Sabo and Hawkeye ate it [Cai Gou]
Guess which comes first, reaching Wan Guo or finding Shanks?
Long: Wendy is still a bit too radical.jpg
The story on the cover page mentions that Ryu raises a lot of Den Den Mushi, which is quite cute.
PS: The update is over! See you tonight! =3=
PPS: Who said Sabo is Di's eldest son... I saw it yesterday and laughed to death...
