Pirate Seas

Pirate Seas is the second world in Plants vs. Zombies 2 and its Chinese version. It is based on an old pirate ship on the open ocean. It is home to pirate zombies and some plants. It was originally unlocked after beating the Gargantuar battle in Ancient Egypt - Day 8 by using one World Key, but is now accessible without it.

The events in Pirate Seas takes place in the Golden Age of Piracy, assuming to be in the period of buccaneering which was characterized by an Anglo-French seamen based on Jamaica and Tortuga where in the assault of Spanish colonies. Judging by its description, it is assumed that this world takes place on the Caribbean Sea, which is the most well known for the main setting of countless literary efforts related to piracy and swashbuckling.

In this world, the player's lawn is split up into three sections. The first section, the half towards his or her lawnmowers functions as it normally would. The section towards the entry point for zombies is quite different. Planks connecting the zombies' ship to the player's allow them to passage easily onto your lawn. While some rows do not have any planks, they can still be attacked by ambush zombies landing halfway across his or her lawn. The sections with the planks will function as normal, with the exception that a few plants cannot be planted on planks (such as underground plants, like Potato Mine). The third and final part is the sea tiles, which no plants (not even water-orientated plants like Lily Pads) can be planted there and zombies instantly die if they land in the water. This is also the main part of the lawn where Swashbuckler Zombies start to swing forward towards the non-water parts of the lawn.

Game description
''The year is 1679, the golden age of zombie piracy! Keep your booty close, and your plants closer, as the zombies take to the sea to plunder your brains!''

Order of events
The player uses a World Key, thus, the player travels to this world.

After Day 7, the player receives a treasure map that leads to "Treasure" saying "TREASURE, NOT ZOMBIES". However, it was a trap planned by the zombies and Dr. Zomboss, thus, they attack the player, yet, the wave of zombies are defeated.

When the player reaches Day 25, Dr. Zomboss writes a note, claiming Penny may be a Zombot since its temporal signature is nearly identical to his own creations. Penny asks Crazy Dave if she is the daughter of Dr. Zomboss, but Crazy Dave mentions only about a sandwich he just made. Dr. Zomboss then attacks the player in his Zombot Plank Walker, but is defeated once again. He then writes another note, saying that he will have the answers when he has Crazy Dave's brains. In retaliation, he flees as always.

Upon reaching Day 26, Crazy Dave and Penny will exclaim like in Ancient Egypt, the zombies are still attacking and will come more dangerously, prompting the player to retreat to another time period or level up their plants.

On Day 31, Crazy Dave and Penny tell to the player that there be no more lawnmowers for the rest of the levels in Pirate Seas due to the time shenanigans of Dr. Zomboss.

On Day 35, Dr. Zomboss taunts Crazy Dave and Penny until unveiling the Zombot Plank Walker 2.0. When the player beats the level, Penny marks the villainy of piracy, following Dr. Zomboss saying leveled up plants are annoying.

Cannons Away

Locked and Loaded
In this Brain Buster, the player is required to finish the level with the plants given to survive the zombies attack.

Save Our Seeds
In this Brain Buster, the player has to protect the endangered Spring Beans and survive a horde of zombies at the same time. Otherwise, the player will have to start over again.

Last Stand
The player must plan his or her defenses carefully and must survive an intense zombie incursion. There are no zombies carrying Plant Food therefore the player must use the Plant Foods provided to them carefully or he or she will fail the level. However, if the player is smart enough to formulate a good strategy, he or she can win this Brain Buster without spending even a single Plant Food.

Dead Man's Booty
Dead Man's Booty is Pirate Seas' Endless Zone. The player can practice his or her skills in surviving level after endless levels of extremely big hordes of zombies. This is also a great way to practice how long the player can survive in an extreme hordes of Gargantuars that will appear. The numbers and positions of planks are randomised for each level

Zombot Plank Walker
The Zombot Plank Walker is the boss of Pirate Seas. It can summon any Pirate Seas Zombie except Seagull Zombie, Flag Pirate Zombie, Swashbuckler Zombie and Imp Cannon. It has two attacks: the first causes the Zombot's "eye" to pull back and reveal a cannon that fires five Imp Pirate Zombies. The second attack causes the Zombot to retreat a short distance, then charge forward destroying both plants and zombies in a two-column range unless stopped with Plant Food.
