Transcended as Lord Buggy - Chapter 363: Reveal
Chapter 363: Reveal
While their ship is being coated on Fishman Island, Buggy is trying to meet Sun Pirates. But the Fishman Pirates have gone to the surface since Dory defeated them singlehandedly. It seems they are embarrassed and don’t dare to return here yet.
It’s quite disappointing because Buggy wants to meet Fisher Tiger directly even for one time. But well, there are still many chances to meet that guy. Also, Buggy doesn’t know if Tiger even wants to meet a human yet, and there’s no need to force it.
So instead of meeting the Sun Pirates, The Clown Pirates are robbing Decken’s place. Their Fishman members know Flying Pirates’ general base location. So the Fishmen go there to find & clean the place.
The human members stay on the island because the location is quite far and difficult to reach. So it’s just the Fishman members who go there and some Fishman soldiers actually help them because Decken also kidnapped some humans & Fishmen, so they need to free those people.
It takes a few hours for the Fishman group to finish their cleanup at Decken’s place. They bring back a lot of treasures although mostly are just valuables for Fishmen, not humans. There are also many humans & Fishmen who were kidnapped by Decken.
All of the Fishmen are grateful for the rescue, but it’s not the case for the humans. There are some who don’t show any gratitude to their saviors at all. They even dare to ask for their treasures rather than thanking the ones who saved them.
These guys are pirates, the arrogant ones who only care about wealth. There are some pirates who thank the Fishmen though and even want to stop being pirates. Luckily, all civilians are very grateful because being alive is more important than wealth for them.
*BAM*
Suddenly, Buggy appears behind one of them and hits his head very hard on the ground. The guy faints immediately and the other ones who make a ruckus turn silent instantly.
“If you don’t want to be saved, then just say it. My crewmates will send you back to that place if you want it. I will even give you more money if you can even come here by yourselves,” says Buggy while stepping on the unconscious guy.
Some of the humans widen their eyes when they see Buggy because they recognize him.
“OH MY GOD! Y-YOU, AREN’T YOU THE CLOWN LORD?” asks a man while falling on his butt because he is too shocked.
“Huh? Who?” asks a woman.
“IDIOT, YOU DON’T KNOW CLOWN LORD? HE IS ONE OF THE STRONGEST PIRATES IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW, AN EMPEROR OF THE SEA WHO RIVALS WHITEBEARD AND BIG MOM. HIS BOUNTY IS EVEN HIGHER THAN BIG MOM AT 4.75 BILLION,” shouts another man who recognizes Buggy now.
Now everyone is surprised even though some are still skeptical. But suddenly Neptune orders one of his guards to show them Buggy’s bounty. Now, no one doubts it anymore and they finally shut their mouths.
“Oi, Neptune, you are doing something unnecessary. And you guys, stop making a fuss about it, that’s just a bounty,” says Buggy as if he doesn’t like it, but his face says otherwise.
He tries to hide his smile, but he fails miserably because his mouth curls strangely. Everyone sweatdrops at his attempt to hide his happy expression. His bounty is one of the things that Buggy is very proud of, after all, so he’s happy when people are impressed by it.
“*Cough*, anyway, you humans can go with us to the surface. But you, noisy dudes, you can return to where my crewmates found you,” says Buggy.
“N-no, please let us follow you, Sir. We will follow you for the rest of our lives, just don’t leave us there,” begs one of them.
Then they all start to beg, even the ones who were unconscious before. Buggy thinks for a while before he suddenly smiles. That smile gives these men chills though because it looks like a devil’s smile.
“Fine, I need some workers for my base, after all. You can work there to repay this debt,” says Buggy with an evil smile, which gets followed by his crewmates.
These pirates have a bad feeling about this, but they can only agree because they don’t have any other choice. Buggy will send them back to that dark underwater cave if they refuse, after all. So this is their only choice to survive.
The Clown Pirates finally leave Fishman Island and go to New World with the rescued humans. They also bring the treasures after splitting them with the Ryugu Kingdom. Well, Neptune only took what The Clown Pirates don’t need, so they don’t lose anything.
Anyway, the crew reaches New World in a short time. Their Fishman members are nowhere to be seen on Black Pearl though. It’s because they sail underwater using the Flying Dutchman. The ship has many broken parts, so it can’t float on the surface like a normal ship.
It is still being pulled by the Black Pearl though because New World’s water is as violent as its weather. If something happens, then the crew on the surface can do something. Luckily, there’s nothing too dangerous until they reach the first island.
Some of the rescued people are being left here so they can go home. All of them are civilians and The Caribbean’s branch on this island will send them back by Buggy’s order. He doesn’t have any use for these civilians, so he chooses to do a little good deed.
The rests of the people are pirates, bounty hunters, or criminals. These guys are useful and Buggy knows they will just do more crime. At the very least, it will be difficult for them to get normal jobs. So he also helps them by giving them jobs in Clownland.
They are quite terrified at the unknown jobs that Buggy will give them. But he assures them that they will like it with an unconvincing smile. Of course, they don’t believe it and they are still scared, but they don’t dare to even protest.
After sailing leisurely for days, they finally can see the new Clownland in the distance. It’s night now, but the Clownland still looks very impressive. Maybe it looks more impressive now than when it’s the day.
The whole island is full of colorful light spots that are installed everywhere. From afar, this place looks more like a tourist destination than a Pirate Crew’s base. But that’s the concept, so they really nailed it.
There is a massive Ferris Wheel with a big clown face on its sides, a massive castle in the middle of the island, some Roller Coaster rails that go around the island, 4 tall observation towers that also act as lighthouses on 4 sides of the island, and many more things that spread all over the island.
The rescued people are speechless when they see the island. Even the Clowns are speechless because this is the first time they see the new Clownland directly. They’ve only seen its concept when Buggy & Palu designed the layout.
“Damn, are you sure this is still in our budget?” asks Cricket with a stunned expression.
“I don’t know, man, this is beyond my expectation. I hope we aren’t in debt because of this,” says Buggy with the same stunned face.
“Don’t worry, if the reports I get were correct, then we are still within the budget. I will check it thoroughly too later, so we will find if there is any problem with our finances,” says Dela, the very trustworthy secretary.
“Yeah, I leave it to you,” says Buggy.
The ship arrives on the island shortly after that and the rest of their crewmates have waited there.
“You guys really take your time, weren’t you?” asks Palu while grinning.
“It’s you who came too early. There’s no problem on my island, right, comrade?” asks Buggy while smirking.
“There is one actually, it hasn’t been opened officially,” says Palu with a smirk too.
Buggy still smirks as he says, “That’s a very big problem then. I guess we need to do it now. LET’S THROW A PARTY, YOU SCUMS!”
“AYE AYE!” replies everyone vigorously.
A very big party is thrown at Clownland. This is the birth of New World’s most popular island.
