Transcended as Lord Buggy-Part 1

78. Recovery

Buggy now realized that Garp was the one who pull some strings. He is the reason why no Marine came to the island for 2 weeks. But the pressure from the higher-ups must be strong, so Garp finally decided to attack Buggy.

Buggy leaves that thought and goes to sleep. He feels very tired and weak because he lost too much blood. Manba's medicine also makes him sleepy, so he falls asleep fast.

He finally wake up again the next day after sleeping for 12 hours. The pain in his body has subsided and he feels better now. But he still can't move and isn't allowed to move by Manba.

Then finally, Buggy recover fully after 2 days & 2 nights. It surprised everyone, even Manba who made the medicines. He knows his medicines aren't that potent and can heal someone with severe injuries like Buggy in 2 days.

That means Buggy's natural healing ability is high. Normal people will need weeks or even months to recover from that. But it's also because of Manba's medicines. They're good medicines, after all.

Buggy leaves his room to check on Rouge. She has gotten better now after being treated by Manba for more than 2 weeks. She looks more healthy now, just like a normal pregnant woman. Rouge is sleeping now, so Buggy leaves the room to talk with Manba.

"How is she?" asks Buggy to Manba.

"She is better now and her health has raised a lot. She is very strong-willed and it makes her recovery faster. But her energy is still low and it will be hard to return it to normal. For the last 2 weeks, we will need to improve her energy reserve so she will be able to go through the labor," says Manba.

"I still prefer Caesarean section than normal labor," says Buggy.

"That's still the plan. Even if her energy increase, I will still use Caesarean Section. Normal labor needs a lot of energy, and it can put her in danger again if we use the normal method," says Manba.

"Good, I will leave it to you," says Buggy while walking out of the house.

Buggy leaves the house and goes to the highest place again. He looks at the sea and thinks of his battle with Garp. He knows Garp is still too strong for him, but he never knows the distance between their power.

"Now I know our distance. I know how high I should aim for. Knowing my target will make my training more effective. I need to reach that level and surpass it. If I can't surpass it, I won't be able to roam around the world freely. I won't be able to discover all mysteries without such strength," says Buggy.

Buggy then decides to upgrade his training even though it's hard enough already. If he doesn't push himself, then he won't grow. If he doesn't grow stronger, then he & his crew won't survive. Their enemies will keep getting stronger, so they need to be stronger too.

Buggy's crewmates also have the same thinking as him. Especially after they see their super-strong captain almost die 2 days ago. Now they know that people at Garp's level have started to target them.

The Clown Pirates then start to train a lot harder than usual. They are still taking care of Rouge in the middle of their training. Their priority now is Rouge, they can train after they leave this island. But Rouge's treatment can't be halted.

For the last 2 weeks, they keep training and taking care of Rouge. No one slacked off even if they are very tired. They've talked with Buggy about their training, and Buggy has set a standard for them.

"All of us need to be able to use haki, at least one type before going to Grandline," says Buggy.

"Even me?" asks Manba.

"Even you. I will teach you haki after Rouge gives birth. So we will stay in South Blue for some months while exploring it. Garp didn't catch me, it will make the Marine warier of us," says Buggy.

"They will be warier of us because they thought that we can escape from Garp. Is that what you meant?" asks Jude.

"Yeah. Garp is very strong and not many people can escape his grasp. So we need to be careful now. The moment we enter Grandline, then the ones who target us will be Vice-Admiral at least," says Buggy.

Everyone now has serious expression and knows the severity of that situation. Vice-Admiral's powers are varying, but they're still one of the strongest forces in Marine. So they can't be underestimated.

Buggy also talks with everyone including Rouge about Roger's & Garp's cooperation in the God Valley incident. It was the reason Garp got his title. That's also the reason why Roger trusted Garp.

Buggy has told them why Garp didn't catch him. The Clowns are surprised that Garp will take care of Rouge & her baby. Rouge herself isn't surprised by it, because Roger has told her about it.

2 weeks passed with the Clowns keep training & taking care of Rouge. Rouge's conditions keep improving because of Manba's treatment and her strong will to live with her baby. Then finally, the time for Rouge to give birth has come.
