Transcended as Lord Buggy-Part 1

180. Golden Bell

Buggy says the same thing that he said to Gan Fall toward the Shandians. He knows it will be more difficult to convince the Shandians because Upper Yard was originally theirs. But if they really care more about the future of their tribe, then they will choose peace over war.

Then just like what he thought, they don't accept it happily. Some people agree with what Buggy said, some are not sure, while the rest disagree. He doesn't care about what they think, he is just saying what he thinks is the best.

"You can have your war for hundreds more years if you want. But that will cost you your children's lives. If you don't care about it, then go on with the war and perish from history," says Buggy before he & Cricket leave.

What should be a happy occasion because their long-awaited friend finally arrived has turned into another conflict.

"You're very mean, Captain. They were just about to celebrate my arrival here, you know," says Cricket while they are escorted back to their ship.

"Hah, celebrating while they're still in a war. That will just be an insult to their ancestors who have sacrificed their lives. Right, Ryder?" asks Buggy while grinning.

Ryder doesn't say anything and just keeps walking.

Buggy smirks and says, "That kid, is he your son? He looks like a tough kid and will be a good warrior. I guess he will join the war in a few years and get hurt too. Who knows, maybe he will die-."

"WATCH YOUR MOUTH, BLUE SEA MAN! EVEN IF YOU ARE A FRIEND OF NOLAND'S DESCENDANT, I WON'T FORGIVE YOU FOR WHAT YOU SAID," says Ryder as he grabs Buggy's collar.

"Then, will you forgive yourself if that really happens? What I said is a possibility that can happen in a war. Death always happens in every war. Will you let your child goes through that path instead of having a happy life without danger? Choose what you want to protect. The past or the future," says Buggy.

Ryder's hands tremble as he clicks his tongue and releases Buggy's collar. They don't talk again until they arrive on Black Pearl. The Clowns then leave the area and go to Angel Island to rest because it's almost night.

Just like yesterday, the boys are enjoying themselves tonight, most of them. They won't have another chance to enjoy their time with real angels in the near future. It won't take long for them to reach New World and they won't go to Sky Island for an unknown time.

"Captain, what's the plan after this?" asks Cricket while he eats on the ship with the other executives.

"We'll go to Upper Yard tomorrow and see the Golden Bell. Then we will take it and put it in Shandora before taking the gold in that city. It's the payment for helping them find the Golden Bell," says Buggy.

"Leave the looting to me, I will finish it in no time," says Enel excitedly.

"You sure act fast if it's about gold," says Deon.

"Sure, but don't try to steal some for yourself. You won't like what will happen to you next," says Buggy while smirking.

"H-hmph, I am not that low," says Enel while shivering.

"Golden Bell, huh? I wonder how it sounds like," says Jude.

The next day, they go to Upper Yard again and split into 2 groups. One group will take the gold in the City, it's led by Enel. Palu is in this team to supervise Enel so he won't steal some pieces for himself. All normal members except the kids are in this team too.

The other group is made of the other executives & the kids. They climb the Giant Jack to take the Golden Bell. It's easy to climb the Jack with Magnus' help. The others just need to sit on his head as he climbs.
