Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 362: Flying Dutchman

Buggy, Cricket, & Mantis go to Grandline by crossing Calm Belt. They go to Sabaody first to pick up most of their crewmates that have waited there. The crew is enjoying their reunion after a year, but the only executive on there is Dela, the others have gone directly to their main base.

They leave after their ship gets coated by Rayleigh for 3 days. Buggy has talked with both Rayleigh & Shakky in those 3 days. They talked about many things including Shanks's arrival a few months ago, so the Red Hair Pirates are already in New World now.

Buggy doesn't think much about it and just continues his way to New World. The Clown Pirates go to Fishman Island without making any trouble on Sabaody. They were just disciplining some newbies, that's all.

On their way to Fishman Island, they meet a rather interesting thing. They meet the legendary ghost ship, Flying Dutchman. None of them are scared though because they've met many more absurd things, and they've seen Brook's ghost ship in the past.

"Ooh, the design is good. It can be a good collection for our Clownland," comments a nurse girl.

Everyone looks at her and makes her look back at them confusedly, "What?"

"You know, that's actually a very good idea," says Buggy while grinning widely, followed by everyone else's evil laughs.

"Yeah, we can give it as a surprise souvenir for our shipwrights," says Cricket while grinning too.

The boys are laughing creepily, making the girls sigh.

"Cricket," says Buggy while looking at Cricket with mischievous eyes.

"Say no more," replies Cricket while also grinning mischievously.

The Flying Dutchman gets closer to the Black Pearl. Buggy knows that Vander Decken whatever wants to rob them. The pedophile Fishman just doesn't know who he is trying to mess with right now.

Decken still hasn't had the massive Fishman Wadatsumi and the big-lamp fish Ankoro as his crewmates. But The Clown Pirates can feel a lot of presence in that ship. Decken must've had a lot of crewmates right now as there are tens of individuals on that ship.

Both ships are side-by-side now and suddenly tens of Fishmen come out of the Flying Dutchman and surround the Black Pearl. They are holding weapons made of deep-sea materials. The Fishmen look threatening, but the Clowns just look at them amusedly.

"Bahohoho, you're very unlucky, humans. This will be your last day because you've met me, Vander Decken IX, and my Flying Pirates, Bahohoho," says Decken like a maniac. He is already using an air bubble because he has eaten his devil fruit.

"Well, this is obviously our last day meeting you even though it's the first time we meet too, strange Fishman," says Buggy.

"Bahohoho, it seems you understand that your fate has been sealed, strange red nose," says Decken.

Buggy raises an eyebrow and says, "I think you don't understand what I said. Well, doesn't matter. Lads, get them!"

After Buggy gave his order, all the boys immediately take their guns out and aim them at the Fishmen.

"Bye-bye, water swimmers. Bang!" says Buggy while waving his hand with a grin.

*BANG BANG BANG*

Many rounds of shots are released by the Clown Pirates. Even if not everyone is a real gunner, they all can use guns quite well. So, shooting the Fishmen who swim quite close to their ship is not that difficult.

The Fishmen who underestimate them get shot many times. None of the Clowns' weapons are normal, they all are very deadly. These weapons' power won't reduce too much even underwater, so the Fishmen really get a lot of damage.

After a while, the only one left alive is Vander Decken because The Clown Pirates didn't aim him at all. The guy looks very shocked by what has just happened. All his crewmates died in a very short time, it's a one-sided massacre.

"If you're pirates, then you need to be ready to lose your lives anytime. And it seems you aren't ready because you were overconfident in your power," says Buggy.

Decken wakes up from his shock and tries to run away. But then a metal spear pierces his stomach and its tip splits into 4 hooks, so he can't escape. The terrified Decken gets pulled toward the Black Pearl by Cricket and then Buggy catches the guy's neck.

"You were trying to kill us by popping our bubble, weren't you? Well, sorry, but this bubble is very durable that it could withstand all those shots. However, it won't change the fact that you tried to kill us, so we will kill you. Also, I know you, Vander Decken. Even our Fishmen crewmates and friends in the Ryugu Kingdom hate you, so there's no reason to forgive you. Then, goodbye," says Buggy before throwing Decken to Cricket.

Cricket punches the guy's chest, but the impact is meager from the outside. However, the insides of Decken's chest are broken apart and blood comes out of his mouth. Cricket's punch was damaging Decken's internal organs without damaging his skin.

After making sure that Decken has died, Cricket throws him into the sea again. They don't need another corpse on their ship, after all. Brook is enough because they aren't a ghost crew.

'No need to thank me, Neptune. I've just saved your daughter from this pedophile,' thinks Buggy.

"Let's go! And bring that ship with us," says Buggy.

The crew then shoots some hooked spears at the Flying Dutchman. Then they pull that ship using Black Pearl and resume their way to Fishman Island. They never thought they would get such a good souvenir on their way back to the main base after a long break.

But that souvenir gives them a little headache on Fishman Island. They get questioned a lot even by Neptune. So Buggy explains what happened and surprisingly Neptune is very happy after hearing about Decken's death.

Neptune then tells Buggy that Decken has used his devil fruit ability on Shirahoshi. It surprises Buggy because he thought it wouldn't happen yet. Although he isn't sure anymore because it's been years since he live in this world and he didn't know every detail about One Piece too.

"Well, it's good that this doesn't become a problem. So, I can take Flying Dutchman with me, right?" asks Buggy.

"I don't mind, we don't need it, after all. Some people in the Fishman district might make a ruckus about it, but I will handle it. You are protecting this place along with Whitebeard, after all, so this is the least I can do," says Neptune.

"Don't worry, there won't be any ruckus," says Siman, Buggy's Orca Fishman crew member.

"Oh, you've finally come," says Buggy while bumping his fist with Siman and his other Fishmen crewmates.

"What do you mean by that, Siman?" asks Neptune.

"You haven't heard? Heh, it seems even the King doesn't know much about what happens in the district, or maybe you never care. Well, whatever, it's not my problem. Anyway, there won't be any ruckus because our little girl has conquered that place," says Siman while pointing at their little Clownfish mermaid, Dory.

Dory smiles shyly while scratching the back of her head.

"Woah, there you go, girl," says Buggy happily.

"Ehehe, thank you, Lord. But it certainly not because I picked a fight with them," says Dory.

"I know, you aren't that kind of person. So, what happened?" asks Buggy.

Dory's brother, Ade answers that question, "Those bastards were insulting my sister because her lover is a human. So I told her to shut them up because her life isn't their business. Some people from Sun Pirates meddled in, so she kicked their asses too. She even beat Tiger & Jinbe who tried to stop the fight."

Now, Buggy, Neptune, & the other humans get very surprised. They don't know what happened in this 1 year, but it seems Dory has gotten much stronger.

Cricket even comments, "Damn, Deon needs to watch his ass from now on."
