Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 359: Idiot Brothers

Chapter 359: Idiot Brothers

Their small activity on Whisky Peak doesn't stop The Clown Pirates from taking their break. They go their own ways and most of them stay in Grandline. Only 11 people leave Grandline, but they spread to the 4 Blues.

Only Buggy, Cricket, & Mantis go to East Blue using Black Pearl. Palu & Jude will go to Birka to visit Palu's parents. But Enel doesn't join them because he doesn't like that place and prefers going to South Blue & West Blue during the break.

Magnus goes to North Blue again because he hasn't finished exploring that place. Deon is staying on Grandline and so is Ruff who wants to go home first. As for Dela, she returns to Water 7 because she wants to see the Sea Train and she misses her family.

Anyway, Buggy returns to East Blue just with Cricket & Mantis. The couple leaves as soon as they reach Conomi Islands though. Well, they have their plan and Buggy also just wants to stay with his family during this break.

His kids are very happy that he returns in just a few days. They don't care about his work, they just want him to be with them. But Buggy only has one body to do everything, so he tries to grant it as best as he can.

He spends a few days just playing with his kids and they don't train at all. Leo has been training diligently since he left, and the girls are studying hard, so it's their time to rest. Resting is also important to make their training & study efficient.

While on break, Buggy keeps managing his business. The Caribbean can move on its own, but he needs to keep supervising it. Also, the organization is his fastest way to get information from all over the world, so he needs to stay in contact with them.

2 months after he returned to East Blue, Buggy gets a visitor. The Red Hair Pirates who are in East Blue visit him on Conomi Islands. This is not a visit that Buggy appreciates because they are disturbing his family time.

"You never visited me when we were on Grandline, but now you visit me when I spend my time with my family. Do you really want to annoy me, Shanks?" asks Buggy annoyedly on the port.

"Hahaha, that's not my intention, Buggy. Sorry if it makes you annoyed. I just think it's a good time because we are relaxing on East Blue," says Shanks who hasn't lost his left arm while getting down from his ship.

"I think you were relaxing too much since you formed your crew. We have gone this far, but you guys are still stuck there," says Buggy.

"Well, we aren't in a rush and there are some circumstances," says Shanks.

Suddenly, a little girl with red & white hair looks out of the ship. Buggy raises an eyebrow as he sees it and then he looks at Shanks. The red hair guy is smirking when he sees Buggy's confused gaze.

"Isn't she cute, Buggy? She's my daughter, Uta" says Shanks smugly.

Out of Shanks's expectation, Buggy is holding a denden mushi, which makes him confused.

"What are you doing?" asks Shanks.

"I'm calling the Marine. I never thought you would be that low to even kidnap a kid," says Buggy very seriously.

Shanks blinks his eyes dumbfoundedly, followed by his crewmates' laughs. His face gets as red as his hair before he dashes toward Buggy and takes the denden mushi.

"SHE'S MY REAL DAUGHTER, BUGGY! AND WHY'S A PIRATE LIKE YOU ARE CALLING MARINE?" shouts Shanks angrily.

"THERE'S NO WAY A BASTARD LIKE YOU CAN RAISE A KID. I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AFTER GETTING A WOMAN PREGNANT," shouts Buggy back.

Buggy died before One Piece: Red gets released, so he doesn't know anything about Uta. He only thinks that it's something caused by the changes he made. Also, he knows Shanks since they were kids, so he knows that Shanks can't take care of a kid.

"WHAT'D YOU SAY? I AM NOT IRRESPONSIBLE LIKE YOU, BUGGY!" shouts Shanks while grabbing Buggy's collar.

"AS IF I'D BELIEVE THAT, YOU BASTARD. I'D RATHER BELIEVE A CELESTIAL DRAGON BEING KIND RATHER THAN THAT NONSENSE," shouts Buggy while grabbing Shanks's collar too.

"DON'T PUT ME IN THE SAME LEVEL AS THOSE PIECES OF TRASH," shouts Shanks before getting into a childish brawl with Buggy.

"I AM PUTTING YOU BELOW THEM, YOU DIMWIT!" shouts Buggy while brawling.

The Red Hairs & villagers who see it are sweatdropping. They know these 2 are close like brothers, but it seems their idiocy level is also close, or maybe the same. This fight is too childish for their levels of power.

"STOP IT, YOU IDIOTS!" shouts Bellemere as she hits their heads.

The 2 idiots fall and their faces get planted into the floor. Everyone flinches seeing her punch and they step back unconsciously.

"Don't fight in front of the kids," says Bellemere with a murderous gaze.

"Y-yes, ma'am," says the 2 idiots from the floor.

Bellemere then pulls their hair and tells them to sit on their knees. Then they get a hell of scolding in front of everyone with their bruised & bumped faces. They can only nod and say yes as she scolds them.

Shanks never met Bellemere before, but he is still listening to her scolding obediently. This is the behavior that has been planted in their minds since they were young because Rayleigh scolded them almost every day when they were still members of Roger Pirates.

After the scolding finished, Buggy finally introduces his family to Shanks. It's now Shanks's turn to get shocked and he almost gets into an argument again with Buggy. But he stops when he sees Bellemere's angry gaze.

"Cough, anyway, can we have a private talk, Buggy?" asks Shanks nervously.

"Sure, let's go to my base. Move your ship there too, this is a public port. You will scare the merchants if your ship stays here," says Buggy.

Both of them then go to Clown Pirates' base on Red Hair's ship. Uta & Shanks's crewmates stay there though. Only Buggy & Shanks will go to the base, so they are the ones controlling the ship, and it's easy for them.

"So, is she really your daughter?" asks Buggy while they go to the base.

"Yeah, I adopted her. What about your kids?" asks Shanks.

"Nojiko & Nami were adopted, but Leo is my biological son. They are the same though, all of them are my kids," says Buggy.

"You've grown up, Buggy," says Shanks with a surprised tone.

"Bastard, are you picking a fight again?" asks Buggy pissedly.

"No, I mean it. I would never even imagined you act like this when we were young," says Shanks.

"Tsk, people grow up. You and I aren't exceptions. Anyway, what's the occasion? I don't believe that you come here just to meet & greet me," says Buggy as they reach the base.

Shanks then ties the ship to a post while saying, "Well, I just want to meet you after so long. There are some things that I want to talk about with you too. But first, I want to apologize for not helping you in Wano a few years ago. I have things to do and I still thought that I shouldn't meddle in Wano's business at that time. That's why I need to apologize to you and Oden."

"Well, it doesn't matter now. Thanks to that I got all the fame for myself & my crew," says Buggy while smirking as he walks into the base building.

Shanks also smirks and says, "Yeah, you sure are. It will be very hard to chase you now."

"It's not hard, it's impossible, HAHAHA," says Buggy while laughing out loud.

"Heh, we'll see then. Anyway, Buggy, I need to tell you something quite important. You are now at the same level as Whitebeard, so I think I need to tell you this. Be aware of Teach," says Shanks seriously as he catches a bottle of booze that Buggy throws.

"No need to tell me that. I've been aware of that creep since we were kids. Don't you remember that I've already got a strange feeling about him in our war against Whitebeard Pirates?" asks Buggy before drinking his booze.

"It is more serious than that. These scars on my eyes were inflicted by him. I know you are very strong and must be stronger than me now. But I am confident I can fight you till you're exhausted," says Shanks.

Buggy knows how strong Shanks is and how strong he will be. Still, Buggy is sure that he can defeat Shanks in a second if he goes all out. He won't say it though because there's no need to say it.

"What's your point, Shanks?" asks Buggy.

"Teach is hiding his power. He must be at the level of Whitebeard's commanders already. There are some possible reasons, but I can't think of anything good. I just want to warn you and tell you to be careful," says Shanks seriously.

Of course, Buggy already knows this, since years ago. But he still acts surprised, "Really?! Then I think I need to keep tabs on that guy."
