Chapter 41: Reward Day 2 (70,000 Nutrient Solution Plus) This is not...
Second day of reward:
Navy Headquarters————
"T-This is..." Garp stared at the wanted poster in shock, sweat breaking out. What's going on, Wendy?! Your sister suddenly went berserk!
Could it be that Wendy's abilities suddenly went out of control... No, beating up the Celestial Dragons seems like something Wendy could do... No, no, no, I can't think like that. If Wendy were here, she'd definitely have a bounty on her head, too...
Karp thought hard and began to become worried, sitting restlessly in his office.
At the same time, on the other side, inside the Don Quixote family——
"This bounty is for... Abigail!" Baby5 held the bounty and looked at the ghost pictured on it. Tears suddenly welled up in her eyes as she sobbed. "Wow—it must be because Miss Wendy is gone that Abigail is searching for her all alone—"
"Shh—idiot! Keep your voice down! It wouldn't be good if Dover heard it!"
"Hmm?" A blond young man wearing a pink feather coat and sunglasses came over and took the bounty order from Baby5, who was so scared that she stopped crying and started hiccuping. After looking at it quietly for a moment, he suddenly smiled, threw the bounty order in his hand to the ground casually, strode forward, and stepped on the bounty order.
"Boring." This was the only comment he made.
That's right, it was boring. There was nothing interesting about a ghost that went berserk because its sister had died.
But under his sunglasses, his eyes subconsciously glanced at the golden cane in Torrepol's hand.
On the other side, on a small island in the North Sea——————
"This is... Abigail..." The black-haired boy wearing a white spotted hat stared at the bounty order in his hand in a daze.
"What's wrong, Luo? Is this someone you know?"
"Who is this? This is a ghost!"
"Huh?! Luo Yuan can actually see ghosts!?"
"Stop arguing!" Luo turned his head and roared at the two people and the bear behind him. He continued to look at the bounty order in his hand for a while, folded it up, put it into his backpack with a serious face, and then hugged the backpack tightly.
"Miss Wendy... I will definitely find a way to revive you! Just wait for me a moment!" Luo silently swore in his heart.
As for Wendy herself...
East China Sea, Goa Kingdom, Windmill Village, (crossed out) Monkey (crossed out) Wendy's house————
Long finally left. After all, he came here just to see Wendy, and his companions were waiting for him.
At first, he just wanted to thank Wendy for the map...but he didn't expect to experience the magic of the teleportation sign later.
After seeing more of this kind of method, he had the illusion that Wendy could liberate all of humanity by herself as long as she wanted.
However, when he was leaving, Wendy pulled him aside to ask about the situation on O'Hara Island.
Dragon was not as secretive as Aokiji and Garp. Since Wendy was interested, he answered her seriously and added some content to Garp's answer: Because of his interpretation of world history, O'Hara was ordered by the World Government to launch a demon-slaying order. He has now been destroyed by the navy, but there is a child named Nico Robin who is on the run. In fact, their revolutionary army has been looking for this child and hopes that she will join them.
Wendy nodded thoughtfully, automatically translating the thought in her head—so O'Hara was exploring ancient technology and then destroyed... So where could we find that ancient technology? That kid named Nico Robin should know...
She still really wants to use ancient technology, as there are many useful things in it.
"I understand!" Wendy nodded, then stretched out her hands to Long, "Long, give me your cloak!"
Although Long was a little confused, compared to what Wendy had done before and how she had asked him for Luffy, this was nothing. He readily took off his cloak and handed it to Wendy.
Wendy excitedly stuffed the cloak into her backpack and then saw the attribute explanation.
[Revolutionary Army Leader Dragon's Cloak]————
Description: The cloak of Monkey D. Dragon, leader of the Revolutionary Army. Wearing it will cause the Navy to become famous, increase the friendship with the people, increase the friendship with the Revolutionary Army camp, increase the damage value to the Celestial Dragons by 1.5 times, and has the effect of wind. After wearing it, you can touch burning objects without being burned by the fire.
Note: This item is given to the player voluntarily by Monkey D. Dragon, and comes with his own blessing bonus. This item can only be used by the player and has permanent durability.
...It's actually a permanent durable item! As expected of my little friend! — Wendy happily put the item away.
Long looked at the other person like this, and although he didn't know what was so good about just an old cloak of his...but when he thought about how Wendy had always liked collecting things, from gems and gold nuggets that he understood to all kinds of junk that he didn't understand, he thought that the other person might have a collecting habit, and didn't investigate it further.
He told Wendy not to use Abigail in front of others, or to be careful not to be discovered when using Abigail, and then left the house with Wendy waving her hand.
Before leaving, Wendy gave him a walking stick as a return gift, and it was a Corrupted Cane skin. Since the Corrupted Cane's description read "Let Them Fear You" [Note 1], Wendy thought it was a more appropriate choice for a leader.
She unlocked this skin after making 10 wet slimes in a row. Originally, this skin was very suitable for Doflamingo's needs and she wanted to give it to him after it was opened, but since they had broken up now, she gave it to Long without hesitation.
Long never asked Wendy for anything, but he always accepted everything she gave him, including this walking cane.
While Abigail's bounty was flying everywhere, Long received it and began to worry, Wendy was in the bandit hut, listening to the three ASL brothers telling the story of how they fought pirates at the Uncertainty Terminal that night and rescued people.
Sabo also concluded: "At the end, a man in a cloak showed up to help us... but I don't know who he was."
Wendy knew, and then she looked up and answered: "That's Luffy's father, my little friend."
The three brothers were all stunned, and then immediately surrounded him.
"Eh? Is that Luffy's father?"
"Really?!"
"Well, his name is Monkey D. Dragon, and he's the leader of the revolutionary army." Wendy did not hide it from the children.
Although she knew it should be a secret...but Garp said not to lie. Since Ace wants to know his identity as Roger, then Luffy will definitely know Dragon's identity too! And if Luffy knows, it's only a matter of time before his brothers know.
It’s like these three brothers all know who Ace’s biological father is.
"I see... Luffy, you knew..." Ace said as he looked at Luffy, and saw that Luffy's eyes were wide open, almost popping out of his head. "...So you didn't know anything about it before!?"
"Huh? Garp didn't tell you? Maybe he forgot." Wendy came to a reliable conclusion and sighed regretfully, "But I asked Dragon, and he said Luffy can't be my child."
"Huh? Why!?" Luffy's face immediately fell, looking unhappy.
Wendy was also unhappy in the same way.
Meanwhile, Sabo was still struggling, hesitant to speak. He wanted to be Wendy's child... but if his parents were still looking for him, it would bring trouble to Wendy...
"Let's not worry about the children for now!" Dadan pushed the door open and rushed in, interrupting the harmonious atmosphere. "Something big has happened! Why are you still here fooling around with the kids?"
What Dadan was holding in his hand was the reward order issued today and today's newspaper.
"There's a bounty on your ghost sister!" Dadan handed Abigail's bounty over, then frantically paced around. "And what's in the newspaper... I say, did you really attack the Celestial Dragons' ship?! And beat them to a pulp and leave them dead or alive?!"
"What?" Wendy was stunned for a moment, a look of regret on her face. "So he's not dead..."
Apparently, this game is truly for all ages... Abigail only incapacitates them, not actually kills them... Is there a protection mechanism for the NPCs? To prevent random killing of NPCs in case there's a bug in the storyline later on?
Dadan felt his scalp tingle as he listened to this devil's words. He held his head in his hands and wailed, "Do you understand the seriousness of this matter? If it was just the nobles in Gaozhen, it would be fine...but this time they're attacking the Celestial Dragons! That's completely different!"
"There's nothing different." Wendy looked over, still feeling a little puzzled. "I saw him, and he's no different from an ordinary human."
Even the blood volume is not thicker.
Seeing Wendy's calm demeanor, Dadan was momentarily stunned, even starting to feel a little intimidated. He glanced at her furtively—what was this woman's background? She even spoke so casually about the Celestial Dragons...
Sabo also looked over, his eyes a little dazed, and suddenly he felt a sense of enlightenment in his heart - indeed... we are all ordinary human beings, whether they are Celestial Dragons, nobles or civilians, there should be no difference in essence!
Thinking of what Luffy's father said to him that night, Sabo secretly made up his mind - if his parents continued to look for him... in order not to implicate Ace, Luffy, Wendy and the others, he could choose to go out to sea to find the Revolutionary Army!
Wendy didn't know that the son she was about to recognize had decided not to go home. She just shared Abigail's bounty with everyone and didn't care about Dadan's life or death at all.
Wendy even felt a little proud. In other games, this would be a minor achievement! The kind that deserves system gifts and achievement titles! Even though the bounty wasn't on her, she was Abigail!
But if it were her, she probably wouldn't be able to farm properly, as it would easily attract the BOSS to destroy her home, so this is fine.
Dadan was still trying to persuade her: "You're in danger now, you know? And your ghost sister has been haunting Gaozhen..."
"It doesn't matter. I'm going to build a home too," Wendy said confidently. "And I've already found one!"
The home Wendy was referring to was naturally the island that Garp had pointed out to her before.
Because the white ghost was discovered in the Goa Kingdom before, and the original destination of the Celestial Dragons who were attacked this time was also the Goa Kingdom, the navy is coming to investigate.
Dadan was terrified because not only was Wendy, the culprit, hiding here, but also Ace, a ticking time bomb! And Sabo was a big target!
Sabo also realized this and decided to go hide with the Revolutionary Army for a while. Wendy thought about it and decided to let all three brothers go hide - after all, Luffy is Dragon's child, Sabo wants to join the Revolutionary Army, and Ace is bound to them.
As for what Dragon said before about not being able to meet Luffy yet, Wendy ignored it - because she only does things based on her own mood, not the moods of others.
"Is it okay for me to go along too..." Ace's expression became serious, and there was a hint of concern in his expression.
Wendy didn't try to comfort him. After thinking for a moment, she patted his head and promised, "If it's inconvenient for the dragons, you can come with me to Kraikana Island to build a home!"
So, Wendy set off with the three little ones - because the dragon was nearby, she could also see the dragon's location based on the map.
And the boat she used... was still her simple round raft.
When there's room in the mod, she'll definitely add a shipwreck mod, so sailing won't be so difficult! — Wendy thought.
A circular raft was a bit small for four people, so Wendy specially made an extra one and connected it in series at the back so that they could drive the two together.
Luffy was very familiar with this raft. The other two looked at this "boat" with curiosity, but they did not dislike its simplicity. They curiously observed Wendy's boat-building process.
After completing the equipment, Wendy set sail in the front, while on the second circular raft behind, three children sat in a row, looking a little excited.
"Let's go!" Wendy raised her hand and shouted.
"Let's go!" X3
The three little ones shouted excitedly.
Dadan, who was originally planning to see someone off on the shore, was stunned and his eyes almost popped out of his head. Wait a minute! Your boat is just a piece of wood?! Is it really okay?!
Although she wanted to let the children take shelter...but wouldn't this become a new disaster?!
