Chapter 115: 2 Idiots
Buggy agreed to give Enel time to think about joining his crew. He tells Enel to think about it carefully because he won't ask twice. Buggy then leaves the location and goes to the town again, while Enel is looking at him while pondering many things.
In the town, Buggy buys a lot of food to fill his stomach. He has spent a lot of his energy in the battle and played around with his devil fruit's new ability before. The new ability usage took most of his energy though, as the fight isn't that hard.
This new ability is very good, but it also has its weakness. It needs a lot of energy to use because he needs to split his body trillion times to reach the cellular level splitting. But Buggy knows that it's because of his low mastery over this new ability.
Luffy also has a hard time with Gear 2nd & 3rd before the time skip. But he can spam them after time skip and having Gear 4th. That means his mastery over those 2 has increased a lot.
While eating his food, Buggy sees Palu & Ruff walk on the street. Palu has his shoulders dropped and looks dispirited, while Ruff tries to say something but always stops it. Buggy doesn't know what happens, so he calls them and buys them some food.
"What happened with you guys?" asks Buggy.
Palu plops his head on the table and doesn't say anything. So Ruff answers Buggy's question.
"Well, we don't find any clue about his origin in this place. He was too excited before, so it really disappoints him," says Ruff while scratching the back of his head.
"Sigh, things don't always go as we want. This is also not the only Sky Island, so you don't need to worry. We will go to the other Sky Islands in the future. Eat your food and you will get better," says Buggy.
"Alright," replies Palu weakly.
Palu has hoped to find his homeland for his whole life. So this failure really disappoints him.
"How did you try to find the clues?" asks Buggy.
"We asked around to the natives here," says Palu.
"Huh? Wait! Did you ask random people?" asks Buggy while frowning.
"Yeah, how else should we ask?" asks Ruff & Palu while tilting their heads in confusion.
"Are you serious? How did you ask them?" asks Buggy with dark eyes.
"We asked if they know a baby who missed 26 years ago or a family who left this island before that," says Palu.
Buggy's expression gets darker after hearing their answer. He forgets that his crewmates are idiots in their own way. Even Ruff, the smartest guy in the crew has his idiocy.
"What's wrong, Captain?" asks Ruff.
"Nothing, just finish your meals. We will go somewhere after you finished," says Buggy
Ruff & Palu look at each other in confusion, but they shrug it off and eat their food. Buggy can only sigh and massage his head at their stupidity. He knows they're not good at information gathering, but they shouldn't be this bad either.
After they finished their meal, they go to the town center. Palu & Ruff don't know why Buggy takes them there and just follows him. They see a big palace that has many guards around it.
"What's this place?" asks Ruff.
"It's the home of this Island's ruler, their King. But they have a different title for their ruler, God," says Buggy.
Just like Skypiea, Birka also uses the title of God as their ruler. It stunned Palu & Ruff, so Buggy explains it to them. The God title isn't a big deal as it's just an official title. It doesn't mean that the God here is a real deity.
The three of them then go to the palace, but the guards stop them. "HALT! OUTSIDERS AREN'T ALLOWED TO ENTER THE GOD'S PALACE."
"Tell your God that I have some business with him," says Buggy.
"Hmph, His Majesty doesn't have time to meet weak Blue Sea People like you," says a Guard arrogantly.
"Heh, that's a funny thing to hear from a weakling, right, Palu, Ruff?" asks Buggy to Palu & Ruff.
"It can't be helped, Captain. He never sees the outside world. They're just birds in a cage," says Palu with a mocking tone.
"What'd you say?" asks the Guards angrily.
"Can you guys stop dragging me into this?" asks Palu while moving to hide behind Buggy & Palu.
The Guards get angry hearing the Clowns insulting them. They're the best warriors in Birka that are trusted by God himself to protect the palace. No one in Birka can defeat them and no Blue Sea People that came here can defeat them too.
That's why hearing The Clowns that came from Blue Sea look down on them really makes them angry. They have their pride as the God Palace's Guards. They can't let outsiders mock them like this.
A guard then decides to give The Clowns a lesson. He rushes at the Clowns while holding his spear. Then he thrust his spear at Buggy who doesn't move at all and stabs Buggy's chest.
It surprised the Guards because Buggy gets defeated easily. But they don't realize that Palu & Ruff aren't reacting at all even though Buggy got stabbed in his chest. The Guards are just focusing on Buggy now.
"Ha-Haha-HAHA! What's this? You just have a big mouth but don't have the power to back that up," says the Guard that stabbed Buggy.
"HAHA, look, his friends are too shocked and can't say anything," says another Guard while pointing at Ruff & Palu who keep silent.
The Guards are laughing before they stop when they hear, "I thought you have strong Mantra. But you don't even realize that I haven't died yet. Are you that confident or you are too arrogant?"
Buggy suddenly talks with a spear that is still stabbed in his chest. It shocked the Guards because they thought Buggy has died. The one who stabbed Buggy falls on his butt and his body shakes in fear.
Buggy grins and takes out the spear from his chest. He stabs the spear on the ground right between the fallen Guard's thighs. It makes the man piss his pants and the white cloud turned yellow.
"Oi, that's disgusting," says Buggy while taking some steps back.
The other Guards come out of their stupor and one of them says, "Ability user. HE'S AN ABILITY USER! WE NEED TO ATTACK HIM TOGETHER."
All Palace Guards are now alerted and get ready to attack the Clowns together. The Clowns are sighing because this has turned into a big problem. They just want to ask a few things, but these guys have made it difficult.
Buggy uses his Observation Haki to count the enemies' numbers. There are 234 of them, not a problem for the three of them. He can defeat them alone, but he needs to share the fun with the others.
But then, Buggy senses someone is looking at them from far away. He grins when he knows who's the one that watching them. It's Enel who watches from a very far distance, but he's still in Buggy's range.
'Does he wants to see my capability? Fine then, I'll show you something that you'll never forget,' thinks Buggy while grinning.
"Captain, is this really fine?" asks Ruff.
"Why won't it?" asks Buggy back.
"I mean, this will cause a very big problem. We've just arrived here today, you know," says Ruff.
"Heh, it seems you haven't gotten used to this, Ruff. Remember, we are pirates, and we do what we like. We do everything to reach our goal and these guys are blocking it. This is what we'll do to the ones who block our path," says Buggy while walking to the front alone.
The Guards are rushing to Buggy and he waits. When the front Guards get closer to him, Buggy grins and releases his Conqueror Haki. In an instant, every Guard that rushes to them faint and falls on the ground.
Palu who knows about Buggy's Conqueror Haki claps in amazement. Ruff hasn't known about it and he has his jaw dropped in shock. Just like Ruff, Enel has his jaw dropped and his eyes widened comically.
