Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 289: Whitebeard Pirates

Somewhere in New World, a gigantic ship with the head design of a whale is floating. It's Whitebeard Pirates' main ship, Moby Dick. It just floats on the sea without any destination in mind because they like to stay on the sea rather than on the island while they don't have anything to do.

Then suddenly, "FATHER! FATHER!" Someone runs panicky to Whitebeard who sits relaxedly on his chair while drinking.

The man stops in front of Whitebeard while panting hard. Jozu gives him a mug of water to drink and he gulps it.

"What is it?" asks Whitebeard.

"T-That's, The Clown, The Clown Pirates are coming here," says the man while pointing to the sea.

Everyone on the ship gets alerted now, but then, "Gurarara, that brat finally comes to visit me. Don't do anything and just wait, they should've known better than attacking us first."

The Whitebeard Pirates then wait while being on alert. They don't know what The Clown Pirates want but they know they need to stay on guard. The Clown Pirates have filled the news for the last few months since they defeat Beasts Pirates, after all.

"Captain, are you sure about this?" asks Cricket as they approach Moby Dick.

"Don't worry, that old man won't attack us just because we get closer to his ship. Well, it will work out somehow. Just make sure to not get too close and don't release the anchor so you can move anytime. I can't guarantee that the old guy won't be angry," says Buggy.

The Black Pearl gets closer to Moby Dick and it just makes Moby Dick bigger. Compared to Moby Dick, Black Pearl is like a small kid in front of an adult. The Black Pearl's size is just around half of Moby Dick or maybe less than that.

So Buggy jumps from his ship's mast and lands on Moby Dick's front deck. He grins when he sees Whitebeard Pirates are looking at him warily. They all are on guard against a 19 y.o, which is around the same age as their youngest member.

Buggy grins as he takes a step forward. When he takes his first step, many people suddenly faint. More people faint as he takes more steps. Even the ship's floor, railings, etc are wheezing as Buggy walks forward.

'I always want to do this if I have the power to do so. Too bad that I can't crack the wood just by releasing my Conqueror Haki like what Shanks do in the series yet. My advanced Conqueror Haki isn't strong enough for that, so this is good enough,' thinks Buggy while grinning.

Buggy arrives in front of Whitebeard and says the line he always wants to say, "Sorry about that, this is an enemy ship, so I need to show some threats."

'Is that the correct line? Well, whatever, it must be similar to that. I've forgotten a lot of details, so it doesn't matter as long as the meaning is the same,' thinks Buggy.

"You've finally come, Red Nose brat. And I don't see you carrying anything when you visit someone. Didn't Roger teach you manner?" asks Whitebeard with an annoyed tone.

"Well, I just can't be bothered to carry it myself," says Buggy.

Suddenly, something big covered by lightning flies from the Black Pearl toward Buggy. He raises his hand and catches it before putting it in front of him. It's a big wood barrel with a glass bottle tied on top of it.

Buggy takes the bottle and throws the barrel at Whitebeard, "Still think I come empty-handed?"

Whitebeard catches the barrel and smirks, "Cheeky brat."

They drink the booze and Buggy grabs a box with his detached hand to sit.

"It's a good liquor," says Whitebeard while smiling.

"It's one of our territories' specialty," says Buggy.

"So, what's your business?" asks Whitebeard.

"Nothing, I just come because I know you want to meet me," says Buggy.

"Hah, why would I want to meet you?" asks Whitebeard while scoffing.

"Because of Wano," says Buggy while smirking.

Whitebeard turns silent and looks at Buggy intensely, the others too.

"Don't look at me like that, it makes me scared," says Buggy without an ounce of fear shown in his voice & face, there's only a grin there.

Whitebeard gulps his liquor and says, "It will make this easier then. Why did you do it? I'm sure Oden didn't ask you for help. I know that he told you guys on Roger Pirates that he would handle that problem himself."

"Yeah, he did, but old man, what I did was simply attacking another pirate crew. In New World, the only way to survive is to be under big pirate crews or go against them and usurp their thrones. I just simply going against Kaido," says Buggy.

Whitebeard just looks at him before gulping all the liquor in the barrel and throwing the barrel at Buggy angrily. "Don't try to justify what you did with words, brat!"

The barrel hits Buggy but it gets chopped into pieces without damaging him.

"A great Pirate never goes back on his words. We aren't heroes, but we are men with principles. Roger gets respected because he has great character and power. You should know it better than anyone," says Whitebeard.

Buggy looks at him and says, "Justifying? Do you think it's me who justifies my action? It's you who did it. You say you are Oden's brother, but you don't even check on his wellbeing. Do you even know what he has gone through? You don't know shit, and if you know it, then you are the shitty head who doesn't even do anything."

"Old shit, I am not you or Captain Roger. I am not someone who prioritizes promise over life and honor. So don't judge what I did because you don't have the right to do that. I am me, I do what I want, and I live for myself. No one can tell me what to do, not you or even Captain Roger," says Buggy firmly.

"So it is me who is in the wrong?" asks Whitebeard angrily.

"Think about it yourself! Use that big head of yours unless it's just a decoration," says Buggy while smirking.

Whitebeard gets angry hearing Buggy's insolent words. So he gets up and grabs his bisento before swinging it at Buggy. Buggy grins and swings one of his swords too.

Both of them don't use haki or devil fruit power, it's just a pure clash of swordsmanship and physical power. But their clash has enough power to shake the ship and the sea around them. Then just like when Shanks & Whitebeard clash, the sky is being split.

They seem to be equal, but then Buggy gets pushed and flies to the front deck. He crashes onto the wall and the front deck gets chopped into many blocks in an instant. The Clowns can guess what has just happened but they don't do anything because Buggy will be fine.

Their guess is right, he is fine, and he walks out of the rubbles without any injury. 'As I thought, it's still not enough. Whitebeard in his prime is still too much for me. Even Kaido in his prime 20 years later still can't defeat the old & sick Whitebeard. Has he not held back, I will be injured very badly now.'

"Be glad for that, brat! I owe you one when you didn't kill Squard, so I don't kill you. But don't you dare to anger me again or I won't hold back anymore. Now scram from my ship," says Whitebeard.

"Hahaha, does hearing my words hurt your ego, old man? Sure, I will leave, but let me give you some advice. Go to Wano and meet Oden. Find out if my help is necessary or not from the man himself rather than judge it from your own perspective. Then, adios," says Buggy.

Buggy walks away then he sees Marco and Teach looking at him. So he smirks, "Still comfortable in your nest, aren't you? You won't grow if you keep being protected by your 'Daddy'. A bird that doesn't leave its parent's nest will always be a chick."

Buggy resumes his walk while laughing, leaving the furious Whitebeard Pirates.
