Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 282: A Territory

Chapter 282: A Territory

Oden's sudden announcement of making Wano into The Clowns' territory is being accepted easily by the citizens of Wano. But the Captain of the said pirate crew doesn't like that idea. He feels like his crew is being used by Wano, after all.

Besides, Buggy doesn't really like to have any territory because he needs to manage and protect it. He just wants to roam around the world freely and managing territories will reduce his freedom. The money that he can get from the tax is very tempting though, but he doesn't like the trouble.

Oden knows what Buggy thinks so he tells Buggy not to worry. The Clowns don't need to do anything and just need to lend their crew's name. Oden the new Shogun & his retainers will take care of everything in Wano, after all.

"Isn't this a win-win situation for us, Buggyjiro? You will get money from the protection tax and solidify your crew's position in New World. Having territories is important in New World, right?" asks Oden while grinning.

"Besides, by defeating Beasts Pirates, you also take over their territory automatically. If you don't take them, then other pirate crews will try to take them. The poor people in those territories might suffer again just after they get freed. You need to be responsible for your actions even if you are pirates," says Toki sternly.

Yasuie, Ushimaru, and Hyogoro also add the nagging without giving Buggy any chance to say a word.

"ARGH! STOP YOUR BLABBER! ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, JUST DO WHAT YOU WANT. TERRITORY, TAX, PROTECTION, I DON'T CARE ABOUT THEM. JUST DO WHAT YOU WANT AND STOP ANNOYING ME," yells Buggy in frustration.

The leaders grin seeing Buggy gives up. He is a very strong fighter, but in the end, he is still just a 19 y.o. It's an easy thing for veterans like them to make a 19 y.o give up on thinking.

Buggy just ignores them and eats the food prepared for him. He even asks for more because he doesn't want to think about complicated stuff and just eats. He eats a lot that everyone who doesn't know his appetite wonder just where all the food he ate goes because he eats too much but his body doesn't change at all.

Anyway, the Clowns Pirates now officially have a country as their territory. They'll also get Beasts Pirates' other territories if they claim those places quickly. But Buggy doesn't have any intention to do it because it's too troublesome, so other pirate crews will try to seize those places immediately.

In the following days, The Clowns are resting to let the injured ones recover. Not everyone has a monstrous recovery rate like Buggy, after all. Those with minor injuries have healed but those with grave injuries are still not fit enough to sail again.

In the meanwhile, the ones who are healthy enough are doing some work. They are repairing their ship and weapons while also upgrading their weapons. They upgrade their weapons' materials and power.

Well, by upgrading, they are making new weapons from scratch again. The materials that they use now are Liquor Iron Ore and seastone. They mix those 2 minerals with the help of Wano's craftsmen who are very skillful at handling seastone.

As for the power upgrade, Ruff & his team have found a way to increase their weapons' firepower after getting Queen's research data. Queen has done many weapon research, be they chemical, physical, or even biological weapons.

It's not to the extent of what Queen showed in the series 20 years later, but his research's results are still very great. The data really help Ruff & his team to upgrade the Clowns' weapons. Ruff also finally gets answers to some of his research problems.

Now, Palu's team is handling the weapons' creation with the help of Wano's craftsmen. As for Ruff, he is busy making prosthetic limbs for those who lost their limbs. He needs to make a lot because it's not just the Clowns who need them but also many samurais.

Of course, some of Wano's craftsmen help him make the prosthetics. They just use normal steel though to lower the budget. Seastone is very valuable to they can't use it for everything.

The other teams also work on their jobs. Team Mantis cooks, team Brook plays music to entertain the people, team Manba treats the injured, and the other teams are helping here & there. They all are working hard, making Wano's citizens respect them even more.

2 weeks later, WG's CP0 agents suddenly come to Wano because of Kaido's defeat. They were a business partner with Kaido & Orochi who supplied weapon materials to them. Kaido's defeat obviously makes their materials supply stop.

The materials they get from here are of high quality so they need them. Good materials are needed to make good weapons, after all. That's why they came here to get their material supplies again by striking a deal with Oden.

However, Oden isn't willing to work with WG, and won't supply materials to them. He knows just how wretched the WG is and how rotten the World Nobles are. He doesn't want Wano to be WG's dog.

Offending WG is bad, but working with them is something that Oden will never want to consider. However, as a ruler, Oden needs to think about his people. WG might attack them if they refused the offer, so he almost received it.

Luckily, Buggy steps up during the negotiation, if it can be called that. He claims Wano as his territory to the CP0 albeit objecting to it at first. So if WG wants to do business with Wano, they need to make the deal with him.

Of course, they belittle him even though he was the one who defeated Kaido, someone that they feared. Some agents even try to attack him, such stupid moves. They only get their body chopped into pieces even without them knowing it.

"So this is how World Government behave when they are negotiating. You are more barbaric than pirates. Well, what do I expect from dogs that follow scums like World Nobles," says Buggy while smirking.

Hearing Buggy calls World Nobles as scums, all CP0 agents get angered. They all are very loyal to World Nobles and won't let anyone insult their 'Gods'. So even after seeing their comrades being chopped to pieces, they still attack Buggy.

The leader orders all of his men, including those who hide to attack. However, no one comes out of their hiding spots and only those who join the negotiation are attacking Buggy. Of course, all of them get chopped into pieces instantly.

As for those who hide, Deon's team has handled them all. They've been eliminated and thrown in front of the leader, the only one who is still fine. He is very surprised to see all his men have been defeated in an instant.

"I don't know what makes you think that you can defeat me who has defeated Kaido that you feared to the core. If you think I was just lucky then you should change your brain. This is good though, I can use you to deliver my message to World Government," says Buggy before he cuts the leader's neck.

Of course, Buggy uses his ability, so the leader doesn't die, just like the others that he chopped using his ability. Those that Deon's team handled have died though. Buggy doesn't need too many of them to deliver his message, so only a few are being kept alive.

Then Buggy raises the leader's head by grabbing his hair. With menacing eyes, Buggy releases a little of his Conqueror Haki and says, "Tell them this. Never mess with me or those that I value. If you still do it, then I will move Mariejois to the bottom of the sea."
