Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 26: Whiteland Kingdom

Buggy & Cricket are sitting on the kitchen table, facing each other.

"We have a very big problem."-Buggy said with a serious face

"I know, this is a life or dead situation. We are in the crisis of identity."-Cricket also get serious

*tak tak tak*

"Your breakfast is ready."-Mantis

Mantis place 3 plates of egg fried rice in the table with 2 plates considerably bigger. She also place a plate full of sunny side up eggs before taking a seat.

"Eat it while it still hot!"-Mantis

"Mantis, we are in a serious conversation right now."-Buggy

"Yeah, you need to join us."-Cricket

"Eat! And no talking while eating!"-Mantis said with murderous eyes

""Yes.""-Buggy & Cricket become submissive

The three pirates eat their breakfast peacefully. Buggy & Cricket devour the food on their plates cleanly and eat all the sunny side up eggs. They even ask for more because it's really good. Then after some plates of breakfast, they continue their discussion.

"We need a name & jolly roger flag for our crew."-Buggy

"Aren't you the captain, you should name it! We'll think about the jolly roger flag after that."-Mantis

"Hmm, the problem is i can't really find a good name. Usually it have the trait of the captain, but i can't really find something that sounds good."-Buggy rub his chin while thinking

"How if we just use your name? Buggy Pirates!"-Mantis

"No, i don't want to use my name, the idea isn't original. I want something unique."-Buggy

"A unique trait of the captain, huh? Then Red Nose Pirates!"-Cricket

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

"It will sound like a mock when people call me."-Buggy

"How about shortening your name? Bug Pirates!"-Mantis

"Now we sound like pests."-Buggy

"I know, let's use your devil fruit! Split Pirates!"-Cricket

"We sound like a crew that doesn't get along."-Buggy

"Hmm, Miss Mantis Admirer?"-Mantis tilt her head and try to act cute

"..... Anyway, we need something more original and didn't sound boring."-Buggy

"DON'T IGNORE ME!"-Mantis have red face

"Sigh, then try to find a good name."-Buggy

"But you refused everything."-Mantis seem pissed

"They just doesn't sound good."-Buggy

"Hmm, how about Clown Pirates? I mean Captain's nose looks like a clown's nose, he just need to add some make ups."-Cricket

"Sounds good & fun, but shouldn't we instill fear to our enemies as a pirate crew? They will laugh instead of scared when they hear our name."-Mantis

"Then how about Killer Clown Pirates?"-Buggy

"That's good, but didn't match our personality."-Mantis

After some long discussion, they decide on Clown Pirates. It didn't sound intimidating, and even sound funny. However, when they get big, it will sound scary instead. It also match a little with their personality.

'In the end, we choose to use Clown, and i'll really become Buggy the Clown now. Sigh, i'm really not good with names. At least it sound good and didn't just use my name.'-Buggy

Buggy now wonder wether to have the canon Buggy's tattoo or not, but decide not to. He doesn't really like to have tattoo on his face or use make up.

"What about our flag, Captain?"-Cricket

"Give me a paper!"-Buggy

Cricket give buggy a paper, and he start to draw the jolly roger. It's the same as the canon Buggy's jolly roger. He doesn't want to bother thinking about new design again.

Right now they are in their way to North Pole. They will transit on Whiteland Kingdom to buy some necessities. North Pole is very cold, so they need warm clothes to protect themselves.

Whiteland Kingdom is a winter seasoned place. This place is close to North Pole, that's why it's cold and always snowy here. The water around the island is covered with ice too, so the Clown Pirates need to dock on ice.

"brrr, it's very cold here. I can't imagine the North Pole's coldness."-Mantis

"That's why we're here. They must've a good winter clothes that can keep us warm on North Pole."-Buggy

The Clown Pirates now wear some thick clothing. They don't have winter clothes, so they just wear clothes on another clothes. They wear so many layer of clothes and now their body look big.

They leave the ship and go to the Kingdom's city. They see everyone is wearing thick fur clothes that seem warm. They walk around and find a big clothing shop.

"Welcome to our store, what did you need, dear customers? We have all kind of clothing here."-Shopkeeper

"Give us the warmest clothes that can survive North Pole."-Buggy

"NORTH POLE?!"-Shopkeeper

"Yeah, is there something wrong?"-Buggy

"Ah, no. It's just that there are very few people who want to go to that place. It is filled by strange and dangerous creatures."-Shopkeeper

"I know, that's why i want to go there."-Buggy

"Well, if you already know the risk, then i won't say anything again."-Shopkeeper

The shopkeeper then show them the warmest clothes in the shop. The clothes are made of giant polar bear skin & fur, and it's very warm. The materials are rare, so it's rather expensive, but it's not a problem for them.

After buying clothes, they decide to explore the island. Mantis want to buy kitchen tools and ingredients, she take Cricket to carry her groceries. Buggy is left alone, so he walk around the town by himself.

Buggy walk around the town and see many unique things in this Kingdom. Well, almost all of them are winter themed things, but they have the touch of this Kingdom's culture. He decide to buy a few things for souvenirs. Then Buggy get a newspaper and get serious.

"Ohara, so it's the time, huh? Guess i'll go to West Blue after exploring North Blue. Sorry that i can't save Ohara, Robin, but i will save you at least."-Buggy

The Ohara incident have just happened. It is stated that the one who destroy Ohara is the 8 y.o Nico Robin, which is ridiculous. However, people believe it because it is stated by the World Government. Only those who know the real face of WG will know that they try to hide something.

Buggy haven't had the power to oppose the WG now. That's why he didn't went to West Blue right when he start his piracy. He won't be able to face the Buster Call with 5 Vice Admiral, it's suicide. Beside, he know Robin will survive, and he just need to help her later.

At first, Buggy doesn't plan to have any contact with the Straw Hats until they're formed. But after he met Bellemere, all those thought disappear. He won't let her get killed by Arlong, and if he saved one, why not save the others.

Who cares about what will happen with the Straw Hats in the future? This is his own life, he is the Main Character of his own story, and he will do what he wanted. Beside, since he become Buggy, he may have changed the whole story of this world.

Buggy have some few things that he want to change from the canon, but that's still some years later. He want to know what change that will happen in the future if he can do all of that. It will be an interesting mystery to reveal, and he like it.

Buggy then return to his ship, and soon his crewmates also come. The 2 also have read the news about Ohara. It's a world shocking news after all, because an island was erased from the map.

"Is this real? An 8 y.o girl is capable of destroying an island?"-Mantis

"Don't believe everything that you see on the news! These news are made based on WG's interest, it's politic. If the girl really able to destroy an island like that, her bounty will be higher, at least 100 million. 79 million is too small for someone that can destroy an island completely."-Buggy

"Then, she is a scapegoat?"-Cricket

"Yeah, she must be a sole survivor of that island, and the one who destroy that island can't let her spread the truth of what happened. Hence, they put bounty on her and narrate the fake news."-Buggy

"Who's capable of such thing?"-Mantis

"Who else? It's the world itself."-Buggy

""What?!""-Cricket & Mantis

"Why would WG destroy an island? That island isn't the base of notorious criminal group or something after all."-Cricket

"That's what you assumed, but WG assume that island is the base of dangerous criminals."-Buggy

"Why is that?"-Mantis

"I don't know, but it must be dangerous enough for them to destroy the whole island and kill all the citizens."-Buggy

Cricket & Mantis ponder about it and feel bad for Robin.

"Forget about it! Let's focus on our own thing!"-Buggy

The Clowns leave their thoughts and continue their sail.
