Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 415: Different

Currently, the Straw Hat Pirates are preparing to sail to the next island. Their Log Pose has been set, so they can go to the next island already. There's nothing here worth waiting and they've looted this place to fill their supply and pockets.

But before they leave, they suddenly hear some clanking sound, and they see a big rat and a bird. The rat then gets on the bird and gets away, making the Straw Hats confused. They ignore those things and resume their preparations.

Then they sail after everything is ready. They leave Whiskey Peak and go to the next island following the Log Pose. Now, they are more ready to face the extreme weather, so they don't find too many problems on their way to the next island. It's still very difficult though because they don't have enough experience yet.

The next island they visit is obviously Little Garden because it's already set in their route. They have the same reactions just like in the series when they find out about this island's nature. Giant prehistoric animals are great things to see, after all.

This is also the moment they realize just how different and unique Grandline really is. They have more realizations when they find Broggy & Dorry who are still dueling to this day. The 2 Giants never stopped because they haven't found a winner yet.

But Broggy & Dorry seem to be more chill in their duel now. They don't do it as often as before and they take their time to eat together every day. Since they do this, they find themselves improving faster than before, so they keep doing this because they want to get stronger than their rivals and win their duel.

They started doing this since Clown Pirates' last visit a few years ago. Magnus is Dorry's brother, so he wanted to visit Dorry after some years. Of course, Dorry & Broggy were very surprised by Magnus's current strength, and obviously, they asked him how he got it.

He told them to not just fight every few minutes because it actually makes them stuck. They need time to rest and train themselves to improve their skills alone. Also, they need to have fun even though it's just the 2 of them there, so they often eat together.

"So it's just the 2 of you here?" asks Leo while the Straw Hats are eating together with the 2 giants.

"Well, not now, there are you guys, GABABABA," says Broggy.

"GYAGYAGYA, don't take it seriously kids, we are just joking. But seriously, it's not just the 2 of us for the last few months I think. We have 2 friends who aren't here currently. I don't know where they are now, but they'll return later," says Dorry.

"Are they giants?" asks Usopp excitedly.

"No, they are human children like you," says Broggy.

"What?! There are children here?" asks Luffy.

"Yeah, they are very small like you. Ah, there they are," says Dorry while looking behind the Straw Hats.

The Straw Hats look back and don't see any children at all. They only see an older teenage girl and an adult woman. There are no children at all here, so they look back at the giants confusedly while Sanji starts simping. The giants are also confused when they ask where the children are, so the 2 women answer it.

"Sorry for the misunderstanding here. Please understand that for them, every one of us here is still a child. Not only we are much smaller, but we are also much younger than them," says the older woman without minding Sanji.

The younger woman seems terrified by Sanji though. Luckily, Nami rescues them by knocking Sanji out using her staff. She apologizes and asks the 2 women for their names.

The younger one answers, "I am Vivi, she is Robin."

The women are actually Nefertari Vivi and Nico Robin. They are a strange duo considering their relationship in the series. But these Straw Hat Pirates don't know that, so they just nod and introduce their names.

"Excuse me, but have you ever heard of me?" asks Robin.

"No? Are you a celebrity?" asks Usopp.

"That's good then," says Robin before walking toward a cave behind Dorry with Vivi.

The Straw Hats sweatdrop because Robin ends their conversation just like that. They try to peek, but Robin closes the door that was made crudely. Both women come out after minutes with new clothes. They look cleaner because they've washed themselves too.

"So, why are you here?" asks Robin to the Straw Hats.

"We are just following the Log Pose. Is it wrong?" asks Nami.

"No, but your luck is very bad. It takes a year for the Log Pose to set on this island," says Robin while smiling thinly.

Now the Straw Hats get very shocked because they don't know it. They forgot to ask the giants about it before, so they don't realize it. Their expressions become very bad instantly, making Vivi laughs because their expressions are too funny.

But suddenly, Robin becomes serious and stands up while looking to the right. So Vivi asks her, "What's wrong, Robin-san?"

"They are here, Crocodile's men," says Robin, surprising Vivi.

"Who?" asks Sanji.

"The group of people who chases us for a reason. We came to this island to hide from them and they haven't found us since we arrived here. Are you guys working for them?" asks Robin suspiciously.

She has been suspicious of the Straw Hat Pirates since the start. So she wanted to find information about them, but Crocodile's men come too fast.

"We don't work for anyone, we have just entered Grandline instead. Besides, how do you know it's them? I won't ask how you find them, but are you sure those people are here for you? After all, we've beaten up many people in Whiskey Peak, so they might come here for us," says Leo.

"Whiskey Peak?!" shouts Vivi in surprise.

"Yeah, what about it?" asks Leo with a surprised tone because of Vivi's shout.

"That's the place where many of Crocodile's men are placed as bounty hunters. How many did you beat?" asks Robin.

"All of them? They are weak," says Zoro.

Vivi is surprised, but Robin is thinking deeply about something. The Robin suddenly says, "Then they must've come here because of you. They followed your trace here and that puts us in danger. You need to take responsibility."

"W-what do you mean responsibility?" asks Usopp.

"What else? You need to shoo them off," says Vivi.

"O-oh, I thought you want us to sacrifice ourselves," says Usopp in relief.

"That's the same thing, you will die if you lose, so you are sacrifices," says Robin with a stoic face, making it sounds scarier.

"How many enemies?" asks Zoro.

Robin closes her eyes for a moment and says, "4 main agents and 32 underlings."

"4, huh? Then the 4 of you are enough, right? Good luck," says Usopp while giving a thumbs-up at Luffy, Leo, Zoro, & Sanji.

"You also need to come. Those 32 can't beat their own selves," says Zoro.

"Eeh~, you can just take them all," says Nami.

Sanji agrees easily, but the other 3 are giving her stink eyes before they sigh and leave. There's no point arguing with Nami and they were prepared to fight from the beginning anyway. So they go to fight and finish this fast so that they can see the battle of giants that will start soon.

"They are paired as a man and a woman in each team, right? Then Mr. Prince shouldn't fight the women or he will lose right away," says Leo while pointing at Sanji.

"Yeah, I know what you mean," says Zoro while looking at Sanji like filth.

Sanji doesn't like the look on Zoro's face, so he gets into a brawl with Zoro, just Zoro even though Leo also contributed. The 2 of them are always bickering like this, so Leo & Luffy ignore them. They just keep walking toward the place that Robin pointed at.

Luckily, because Zoro keeps arguing with Sanji, he doesn't get lost on the way. Although they still have a hard time finding the correct direction because none of them can navigate even in a small area like this island. They still find their targets after working hard though.

To their surprise, there are 2 people they know among the enemies. Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine are among the 4, while the other 2 are new faces. There is a strange guy with 3 shaped hair and a little girl.

"Are they on a family picnic?" asks Leo.

"This is an unusual place for a picnic," says Sanji while smoking.

"Stop blabbering, let's just beat them up," says Zoro.

"Sanji, just take care of those underpaid underlings. Leave these 4 to us, you will just hinder us otherwise," says Leo while shooing Sanji using his hand.

Luffy agrees with Leo's suggestion, so Sanji doesn't have any choice now, it's a Captain's order. They get ready for a fight, but they have some small talks first because the enemies want to introduce themselves and tell the Straw Hats their goals like idiots.

"You're done? Then let's start this," says Leo while unsheathing his cutlasses.

"Don't lose," says Luffy.

"Back at you," says Zoro while they all get ready to fight.

The Straw Hat Pirates' business with this organization has just begun.
