Chapter 455: Uta's Plan
It takes a long time for Buggy to clear up his wife's misunderstanding. Although Bellemere actually isn't angry at him and she knew that he wasn't having an affair. She knows Buggy so well that she believes he would never dare to cheat on her.
What really made her angry was that he never contacted her these last few months. Then when he returns, he suddenly brought a child. It reminded her of when Buggy acted as if he was very heartbroken when he first returned after a long time and found out that she was taking Nojiko and Nami as daughters.
At that time, she didn't know that he knew she adopted 2 daughters. So she believed his heartbroken act and she did everything to make him believe her only to find out that he already knew about the 2 girls' situations. She still remembers that day clearly and now she found a chance to get revenge.
Buggy finally knows the saying that women always remember men's mistakes. Even the Strongest Man in The World is helpless against his wife. He rather fights the whole Marines alone rather than face his wife's anger because at least he still has a winning chance against the Marines.
After Buggy managed to appease Bellemere, they finally talk about Alice. He doesn't need to tell her and she already said that Alice should stay with her until she matures. Aside from the reason that Buggy won't have time to take care of a child, she also feels quite lonely after 2 of her children left to pursue their dreams.
"Heh, you feel lonely, huh?"
"Why are you smirking? I told you I don't want to get pregnant again."
"But you want the process to make you pregnant, aren't you?"
"..... Pervert bastard."
Bellemere blushes, but she doesn't deny it and just stays still as Buggy lifts her to their bedroom. It's been a long time since they did it, so they enjoy it passionately. Nojiko knew this would happen, so she brings Alice around the islands for a whole day.
Buggy decides to stay in East Blue for a few days because things get quite hectic here after the war. Many new pirate crews are formed all over the world including East Blue. All these new and old pirate crews are creating a ruckus everywhere including his territories, so his crew will take care of this problem before returning.
While Buggy tries to keep East Blue under control, Cricket and the other executives are also working hard to maintain order in New World. They have taken over Big Mom Pirates, including their territories. But surely there are oppositions among Big Mom's subordinates, so they need to conquer all these guys completely.
They move all their men to handle this affair with Clown Pirates' methods. Clown Pirates have strict requirements for pirate crews to be part of their group. Those who don't want to follow their rules will be destroyed because they don't need people who can't follow their principles.
But they don't kill those people because these people are strong. Killing them is too wasteful, so they try to not kill too many. The defeated pirates will be sent to their mines or factories as workers. Basically, they are being enslaved. But unlike the Celestial Dragons, the Clown Pirates take care of their slave worker well and even promised them freedom if they work well.
The Clown Pirates have done this for years and there are many captured pirates that have been freed. Because of their good treatment, a lot of these people decided to join their group after being freed. This is also one of the reasons why Clown Pirates keep getting stronger over the years.
Other than taking care of former Big Mom territories, they also help the Red Hair Pirates handle problems that risen after the war. Buggy has made a deal with Shanks to help manage Red Hairs' territories in exchange for Shanks training Leo for a while.
Leo was sent by Kuma to Elegia, the island where Uta lives. Buggy personally asked Kuma to send Leo there when he was still disguising himself as Kuroko. He met Kuma before the big guy sent the Straw Hat Pirates out of Sabaody.
The reason Buggy wanted Leo to be sent there was because Leo is a musician, just like Uta. As a musician, Buggy was sure Leo would be interested in Uta's power. She has Sing Sing Fruit, a devil fruit that has a unique power related to singing which allows her to pull people's consciousness into her own world.
And as Buggy expected, Leo was very interested in her devil fruit. But that is not the main reason Buggy sent him there. The main reason is Uta herself. She is doing and planning something very dangerous using her power. Her plan will endanger people and it will endanger her even more, so Buggy decided to take action.
Leo is Uta's childhood friend and they were very close back then. So Buggy knew Leo won't stay silent if he knows Uta's plan. She plans to create world peace, which is commendable, but her method is far from the word good.
Uta plans to create world peace by making everyone in the world live in her virtual world. She basically wants to trap people's spirits to live in her ideal world. Surely, Buggy who knows this plan opposed to the idea of living in a world created by someone, so he needs to stop her.
But he doesn't want to take care of this himself because he has his own plans. Besides, Uta is Shanks's daughter, so Shanks needs to take care of this. But Shanks and the Red Hair Pirates won't be enough, so he also sent Leo. This will also be an obstacle and training for Leo to grow.
Buggy has done a lot of things to obstruct Uta's twisted plan. He has planted some men in Elegia to do this. They've stopped her from consuming a kind of mushroom that can keep her awake so she could maintain her virtual world because her power will disappear once she sleeps.
Surely, something like that will be harmful to her, so Buggy's men have done many things to stop her from consuming those mushrooms. But what that still couldn't stop her completely. He needs people who can change her mind.
After all, even if her plan works, she won't be able to maintain it forever. She will eventually reach her limit and death will come to her sooner or later if she keeps doing that. His best options to stop her were Shanks and Leo who were close with her and could understand her but won't be affected by her.
He could also choose Luffy who was close to Uta too. But Leo was closer to her because both of them are musicians and they've spent time together longer than Luffy with Uta. Uta stayed with his family for months in the past as Red Hair Pirates left her there because they have things to do at that time.
So if something happens to Uta, his family will be saddened too. Furthermore, Uta often talked about getting married to Leo in the future when they were kids. He doesn't know if she still thinks like that, but it's proof that they were very close. Also, if she still likes Leo, then maybe she will stop with his persuasion.
Buggy will leave this matter to Shanks and Leo, but he is still monitoring the situation through his men. He will go to Elegia personally if they fail. But Shanks shouldn't be an Emperor anymore if he can't even do this, he shouldn't even call himself a father anymore.
After everything that Buggy & his men did, it should be easier for them to stop Uta. They need to stop her now because the World Government has started to notice Uta's power. The World Government surely wants to either remove Uta or use her, that's why now is the best time to stop her while the World Government and Marines are in shambles.
He wants to keep monitoring them, but then another problem that needs him arises. Dragon contacts him to talk about the former slaves that were rescued by Revolutionary Army. They've saved those poor people, so now they need to think of what to do to those guys.
Just releasing them will be too irresponsible, especially since they still have their slave marks. The Celestial Dragons will surely try to find them, so they won't be safe. But they also can't protect these people forever.
"I know man, no need to say it like that. I've thought about it, so you don't need to worry."
Buggy's plan is to send these former slaves to Wano for now. Wano has been opened to the world, but it is not affiliated with World Government. It is one of Clown Pirates' territories, but it also has ties to Whitebeard and Red Hair Pirates, making it a very safe location.
"Go meet my men on Clownland, they'll take care of those people. You just need to make sure you don't get tracked and prepare your Army to attack the Celestial Dragons anytime."
"Of course, they are the biggest obstacle to my dream. Marie Geoise needs to disappear so I can explore Red Line. The Celestial Dragons need to disappear so that I can go anywhere in this world freely."
"Miserable or not, the most important thing is we achieve our goals."
Dragon can't deny that and they talk a little more before closing their call. This call makes Buggy decide to return to New World soon to take care of those former slaves and some other problems. He needs to prepare everything for his Grand Plan that will change this world completely.
