Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 195: Sabaody Again

After arriving on Sabaody, Buggy goes to Shakky's bar. He intended to go alone, but for a reason, everyone except the ones who guard the ship joins him. They all wanted to see the legendary 'Dark King' Rayleigh.

Buggy can only sigh and let them join him. But Shakky's place is small, so only the executives can enter it while the rest waits outside. They don't mind it as long as they can see Rayleigh with their own eyes.

Luckily for them, Rayleigh is there now, and Buggy is really glad too. He comes here for some reasons and one of them is to ask Rayleigh's help to coat their ship. This old man is the best coater in this place even though he has just done it for a few years.

"How big is your ship?" asks Rayleigh.

"A little bigger than Oro Jackson," says Buggy.

"What?! And you want me to coat that alone?" asks Rayleigh.

"You can ask for some help, right? You should know some skilled people that you can ask to help you. But well, you will need to split the payment with them. I just need it to be fast, the Marine is quite eager to capture us. They couldn't do anything while we're on Water 7, so they will do it here before we enter New World," says Buggy.

"I don't think that will be the case," says Shakky.

"Hmm? Why do you think so?" asks Jude.

"You think like that because Vice Admiral Sakazuki & John Giant were chasing you, right? They do it because Marine can't let a pirate crew at your caliber roam around in Paradise. This sea is far more peaceful than New World and the Marine want to keep it in order," says Shakky. "So you said that it's better for them if we are in that chaotic sea rather than here?" asks Cricket.

"Bingo. In New World, they won't need to keep checking on you because other pirate crews will do that for them. A big rookie crew with 5 people who have bounties of more than 100 million will surely gather everyone's attention. Your friend 'Red Hair' Shanks's crew is having a hard time too right now because big crews are after them," says Shakky.

"Why're they going after us?" asks Ruff.

"To make an alliance with us or even recruit us as their subordinates. There are many big forces in New World and usually, rookie crews will join them after knowing New World's horror. Unless they are prepared by it, they will get trampled by big forces. The only way to survive for them is by joining them or allying with other crews that have a similar situation," says Deon.

"I see that you've done your homework well. So, which one will you choose?" asks Shakky.

"We'll walk on our own. There's no way we will be a subordinate crew of another force. I'd rather die than become someone's lackey. Being a little boy in Roger Pirate was enough. I'll do my own things with my own way and crush everything that blocks my path," says Buggy.

"What if you can't crush it?" asks Rayleigh.

"Then I'll find a way around it, no need to make easy things difficult. I'll just do what I want in my life," says Buggy.

"Haha, that's something that I want to hear from our apprentice," says Rayleigh.

Rayleigh accepts the job and promises them to finish the coating in 3 days. He will gather some coaters to help him so they can finish coating the whole ship in 3 days. Then he leaves after taking a picture with everyone because the boys are throwing tantrums.

"Shakky, I want to buy information," says Buggy.

"I won't give you any discount just because you are Ray-san's apprentice," says Shakky.

"No problem. I need information about Beasts Pirates. Whatever it is that you can get," says Buggy.

"You want to start your attack, huh?" asks Shakky.

"Yeah, I need to know their territories, their subordinate crews, everything that you can get. I will reduce their power slowly while making my crew stronger," says Buggy.

"Alright, I will get what I can in these 3 days before you leave," says Shakky.

Buggy thanks her and then they all chat casually while drinking. Luckily Shakky doesn't rip them off with ridiculous prices. She only does that to those who she doesn't like and seem like they won't pay their bill.

After spending time in Shakky's bar, they all split to explore Sabaody and Buggy goes with the executives. Buggy has warned them about the do & don'ts of this place before they left. It will be better if they don't cause any ruckus in these 3 days.

They aren't the Straw Hats and don't have the luck of a Shichibukai coming out of nowhere to save them. Unless they have the power of Plot Armor, they won't be safe without enough strength. That's why Buggy is always harsh on their training because he wants them to survive.

Still, Buggy doesn't want his crew to bow down or even kneel to the likes of Celestial Dragons. So he told them to avoid those scumbags. That way, they won't need to kneel or anything. In fact, he forbid them to kneel or he will break their legs.

"Isn't that too harsh, Captain?" asks Ruff.

"What? About breaking their legs? Hah, if they choose to kneel then that means they don't believe that I can protect them. They want to avoid trouble just by kneeling, but that just means that they don't believe that I will fight an Admiral for them. Besides, they are my crew, so they just need to obey me, not some scumbags who think that they are Gods. If I can, I will wipe out those bastards from this world," says Buggy.

"You seem to really hate the Celestial Dragons," says Palu.

"Well, I don't specifically hate the Celestial Dragons themselves. I hate the whole World Government system. To be precise, I hate corrupt government and the World Government is the biggest corruptor in the world," says Buggy.

Buggy has a very bad experience with a corrupt government. In his previous life, he was an orphan and should be taken care of by the government until adulthood. They took care of him, but just barely enough to make him live.

He knows that the money for orphans like him was being embezzled by those who took care of it. Who else would they be if not people in the government system? That's why he hate them even though he was glad that he could live even though he would starve for days sometimes.

Luckily he could go to school because it gave them more money. School expense is not cheap so they can take some of it. But he's glad he could go to school because he got some friends there and learned many things from them.

He also watched One Piece in one of his friend's places because he didn't even have a TV. Even if he had it, he won't be able to pay for the electricity. He prefers to use the money to eat rather than pay more electricity bills.

'I wonder how they are doing now? I hope they came to my funeral and didn't forget me. I almost forget about them though,' thinks Buggy.

Buggy's team splits again to do what they want. Now Buggy is with Ruff, Jude, and Dela exploring the tourist area. They look around the shops and buy a few things. The 4 of them have listed what they need and immediately buy them if they find them.

They all need to get what they need here before entering New World. Rushing there isn't a good choice, they need to be fully prepared. The crew needs to prepare for everything or they won't survive in New World.
