Chapter 162: The Sixth Day of the Territory Battle. So the Eternal Continent is Mary…
Day 6 of Turf Wars:
Wendy went to Punk Hazard (the Punk Forbidden Zone), which was Vegapunk's previous research institute.
Because Caesar Brown threw a poison gas bomb in anger, Vegapunk moved and the prisoners who were previously used as experimental materials were also abandoned. In addition, the area was blocked and the prisoners were paralyzed after inhaling the poison gas.
Later, Caesar Brown accepted Doflamingo's invitation and cooperation, and returned here. He dealt with the poison gas in this place, installed auxiliary equipment on these prisoners, and made them his subordinates to guard this place.
Caesar Brown's main research here is one of artificial devil fruits - after developing them, Doflamingo will mass-produce them and sell them to Wano Country, making a lot of money; the other is the human gigantism experiment requested by BIG MOM.
Caesar Brown, however, didn't think he could pull off this experiment. He simply defrauded Big Mom, the angel investor, of his investment and then secretly lived off it. Since Big Mom hadn't sent anyone to investigate, he was also playing it safe...
This situation remained unresolved until Monet, Doflamingo's assistant who was actually assigned surveillance duties, arrived and stated solemnly, "We couldn't capture the test subject this time... He was discovered by Ace the Fire Fist."
"Fire Fist Ace?" Caesar Brown was stunned for a moment before he remembered who this person was. His expression suddenly turned horrified. "What is he doing here? These things have nothing to do with him!"
After all, it was impossible for Caesar to know that Doflamingo knew Wendy before and that Wendy had stayed in the Don Quixote family.
Monet, knowing the truth, of course, wouldn't tell him. He just glanced at him and said lightly, "Of course, it's because we've captured a child from the Eternal Continent Pirates' territory."
"...Why are you so desperate as to provoke the Five Emperors?! Aren't there so many unprotected people out there? The World Government isn't likely to intervene, so why are you singling out someone with a Revolutionary Army background who's in charge?" Caesar raged, looking over suspiciously. "You...are you an undercover agent?"
"How is that possible?" Monet glanced at it indifferently. "It's just that those villages happen to belong to the territory of the Eternal Continent."
Although she has strong jealousy and hostility towards Wendy because of Doflamingo, she will never allow her personal feelings to interfere with Doflamingo's plan, and naturally she will not take the initiative to provoke such a powerful force.
But… Wendy's territory wasn't even connected! Because of Wendy's "call to arms," her territory, save for a patch near her own base, was scattered like stars in the sky. Not to mention the New World, even people in Paradise and the four seas had heard about it and were secretly trying to stake their claim.
It wouldn't hurt to try anyway, and Abigail is pretty easy to draw!
Monet only discovered the flag of this village after he kidnapped the children. He was a little nervous, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot... Unexpectedly, he was unlucky and happened to run into Ace with the Fire Fist.
Fortunately, the other party seemed to have other things to do and left...
"Are you so afraid of Wendy Carter?" Monet observed Caesar's anxious expression with a hint of ridicule. "Because she took Vegapunk away? Aren't you actually afraid of Vegapunk?"
"You know shit!" Caesar jumped up and down, "How could I possibly be afraid of Vegapunk! But Wendy Carter is one of the Five Emperors! Forget me, even Doflamingo wouldn't dare act on his own!"
Don't think he doesn't know that Doflamingo is afraid of Kaido! And Wendy Carter was able to take Vegapunk alone without any problems. As someone who had witnessed the strength of the World Government's troops accompanying Vegapunk at the time, he knew firsthand how powerful she was!
Monet's expression changed. Having eaten the Snow Snow Fruit, she used her own fruit ability at this moment, directly setting off a blizzard: "If you insult the young master, I will not let you go--"
"Just you?" Caesar also laughed. He was afraid of Wendy Carter and was also wary of Doflamingo, but he was not afraid of subordinates like Monet at all. He himself was also a user of the Gas Fruit.
Just as the two were about to fight, Virgo, dressed in a navy uniform, walked in and brought a newspaper - which recorded the whole battle between Wendy Carter and BIG MOM.
The two of them calmed down and began to worry about whether this incident would affect them.
However, after a while, the two of them felt relieved - because after the huge cooperation with Wendy broke down, BIG MOM increased its investment here.
Caesar was so happy to get more funds that he lost his mind. At the same time, he knew that he could not achieve any results from his research. Thinking of Katakuri's warning to him when he sent the funds, he became anxious and angry. He began to think about it randomly, trying to come up with some rough idea to fool the other party.
And then, Wendy showed up here at this time.
When she arrived, she also brought a special glass hood - a device made by Vegapunk that could isolate her from poison gas.
Wendy was very happy when she got it, because it looked the same as the astrological goggles used to walk in the celestial storm in Don't Starve. Moreover, the blueprint in Don't Starve was given by Lao Wa, and now it was made by Lao Bei, which made her feel very familiar.
She came here to look for Caesar Brown, and Ace and Sabo had both secretly visited this island before. Caesar Brown hadn't returned when Ace came, but the maps were all opened, and the three children's maps were shared with her, so she could see everything.
"Well... let's just follow the route on the map." Wendy made up her mind and walked forward with her walking stick. She didn't see anything wrong.
Because the weather here is quite cold, she wore a "snowy" outfit that suits the weather today, and also brought some chili dishes - to warm up.
As for combat mode, she still relied on the angry Abigail - so she walked along, and there were people scattered around who didn't want to attack at all and just wanted to report, but didn't have time to escape.
"Hmm... There are so many wild monsters here, and they look like humans." Wendy looked at these people curiously, and then continued to move forward.
The Punk Hazard research institute naturally has various restrictions, and the door cannot be easily opened. But Wendy also has a solution - using bombs.
She also missed the feeling of blasting open various doors and pushing them in layer by layer: "Wow... It's like playing Hamlet."
She walked in happily, and when she saw a closed door, she blew it up. After it was blown open, she continued to move forward. If there was someone inside, she would let Abigail kill him, then loot the place and leave.
Because she had looted so much that there was no room left, she even put up a sign on the spot saying she should go back and put down her things before running away.
Of course, she didn't know that everything she did was recorded by the surveillance system in the research institute using Den Den Mushi... and only half of it was recorded.
Because the Den Den Mushi used for surveillance are living creatures and are also within Abigail's attack range.
Meanwhile, on the other side——
In front of the monitor, Caesar Brown stared at the black screens in silence.
If you look closely, you will find that his body is still trembling slightly.
"Wen, Wendy Carter...actually..." Caesar Brown widened his eyes, his tone full of disbelief.
It's not his fault, after all. From his perspective, Wendy walked in, and then everyone fell to the ground (Abigail wasn't there because Den Den Mushi couldn't shoot ghosts), and then the screen went black. And it was all in order: whichever room Wendy walked into, the screen of that room turned pitch black.
Even at the end, Wendy Carter looked towards the screen (because she found a Den Den Mushi falling over there).
"...We have to escape!" Caesar Brown made the decision.
"Don't try to boost others' morale and destroy your own." Monet appeared beside him, walked over, and stared at the blonde woman on the screen. "She's a Devil Fruit user, and we have so much seastone here. She came alone, so why not give it a try?"
After she said this, Caesar Brown gradually calmed down. His fear of Wendy was mostly imaginary, and he was the type of person who was both timid and arrogant. After his initial panic and fear gradually faded, Monet's words made him feel proud.
"Indeed... this is our home turf. And her actions are now traceable." Caesar Brown's expression changed, and he turned into gas. "In that case, let's prepare to capture Wendy Carter!"
Apart from other things, because they sold the artificial fruit to Kaido, Kaido also gave them a lot of seastone, which they processed into weapons. They are still very confident in dealing with Devil Fruit users...
There was nothing wrong with their plan at the beginning - although Wendy had high attack and now had high defense because she wore Big Mom's cape, she was completely unable to avoid the fast control.
Therefore, if they avoided Abigail's attack range and tried to catch Wendy remotely, they would be able to catch her accurately.
When Wendy was trapped in the seastone cage, even Caesar and Monet, who had devised the plan, were in disbelief. Huh? Was it that easy?
"Hahahaha! I didn't expect it to be so easy!" Caesar appeared and laughed, "Wendy Carter, I didn't expect you..."
He didn't finish his words because he stepped into Abigail's range and was attacked. Even if he turned into a gas, it would be useless because Abigail's hatred was locked on him.
"How could this ghost... Could it be that this ghost is not your devil fruit ability, Wendy Carter, but your sister's ghost..." Caesar looked incredulous.
"Yeah, haven't I always said that?" Wendy looked puzzled. Seeing Caesar escape by gassing at the critical moment, she scratched her head in distress - ah... I'm trapped, how can I get out?
Wendy was a person who didn't like to waste time, so she walked directly to the edge of the seastone cage, took off her equipment and froze herself to death, then turned into a ghost and floated outside the cage, and resurrected again by sticking to her own corpse.
"Huh... I'm so tired." Wendy wiped the non-existent sweat from her face, looked at the cage, and in the spirit of "I want it all", she put up another sign, then grunted and moved the seastone cage back, and came back to continue exploring.
But her actions had already shocked Caesar Brown, who had already sensed something was amiss—Wendy Carter might not even be a Devil Fruit user! She was a member of a race with special abilities! The uncle she mentioned about Marijoa... maybe she was a native of Marijoa! That's why she called herself the Eternal Continent!
Because the Red Earth Continent where Mary Geoise is located is the highest, if something really happens, then Mary Geoise will also be the last continent in the world...so the Eternal Continent is Mary Geoise!
Caesar Brown felt that he had discovered a huge secret and that the research institute would be liquidated, so he just ran away.
While he was running, he received a call from Doflamingo: [Caesar, what are you doing? ]
"What the hell! I was trying to save my life!" Caesar Brown shouted. "It's all because of that snow girl you sent who captured the children from Wendy Carter's territory! Wendy Carter is attacking! She destroyed the institute and wants to kill us all!"
[…Hmm? You mean Wendy?]
***
Elsewhere, Wendy was shivering with cold and starting to lose health—for some reason, a green-haired snow monster had just appeared, and it started snowing heavily… There were a lot more weird monsters around here, and it didn't feel like Don't Starve anymore. It felt like some weird DLC had been added…
She used Abigail to kill the opponent, but the temperature did not rise, and she did not have a stone fire with her... If she wanted to make a wood fire, she had just built several wooden signs to move things, which were not enough.
Wendy scratched her head, looking at the empty research institute she had already ransacked. An idea struck her, and she took out a torch...
When Doflamingo arrived at Punk Hazard, he saw a sea of fire.
Snowflakes were still drifting in the air, the sky was gloomy, and the fires burning below couldn't illuminate the sky. This kind of weather and this situation were just like those in the past...
"Ah." The blonde woman who spoke was standing by the fire, warming her hands with them. She looked over and greeted him naturally with an indifferent expression, "It's you, Dover."
——Just like before.
