Marine Headquarters and East Blue intelligence offices directly under World Government.
In the center of the hall stood Major Marine Headquarters, Major Brannew, with dozens of naval officers sitting neatly on both sides.
"Everyone is here." Brannu glanced around and then posted a reward list on the whiteboard. "A few days ago, I received an urgent message from Brigadier General Bryn Blin of the Sixteenth Division of the East China Sea and Colonel Mouse of the Seventy-seventh Division. The reward for the East China Sea is 20 The million-dollar Arlong Pirates' Sawtooth Arlong was killed. Just the evening before yesterday, Captain Smoker of the Navy Headquarters guarding Rogue Town also ordered someone to send a document about Bucky the Clown, claiming that 'The East China Sea is the worst'. What do you think?"
"Buggy the Clown, his bounty rose to 19.5 million Beli some time ago. Unexpectedly, he started making trouble again within a few days."
"East Blue and Buggy the Clown, who have an average bounty of three million Beli, have not only been active for nearly ten years, but the amount of the bounty has been continuously increasing. Now they dare to challenge the majesty of the navy. It is an unforgivable crime!"
"It seems they are no longer someone the branch can deal with."
The officers on both sides were discussing.
Brannew patted the table and took out a brand new reward list. "That's right. At present, it seems that Buggy the Clown is an absolutely terrifying existence. I don't think we should take it lightly, so this is the reward amount I am giving!!"
On a sailing warship of East Blue.
The girl with black and blue hair lowered her head and said guiltily, "I'm really sorry, Sir Smoker, I shouldn't have acted alone and caused you a lot of trouble."
The messenger soldier standing next to Smoker quickly whispered, "Sergeant Tashigi, Captain Smoker is over here!"
"Oh!" Tashigi quickly turned around, and then vaguely discovered that the person sitting on the chair with his back to her was Smoker.
"Hmph, this Buggy the Clown is really cunning. He tricked me." Smoker smoked a cigar and puffed away, "Tashigi, what's going on with that cook?"
"It was Sanji who saved my life. He took the boat and went to Loguetown to buy ingredients. He was not a pirate accomplice. You won't get me wrong!" Tashigi quickly waved his hand and said.
"Miss Tashigi~~~Please accept my love!" The nympho-like voice from outside came again.
Puff pod puff pod--
Den Den Mushi's voice rang, and Smoker waved his hand. "Okay, let's go out. It's best if you can take good care of the cook. If he makes a noise every day, I will throw him into the sea."
"Yes." Tashigi weakly exited the room.
Smoker picked up Den Den Mushi: "Hello, I'm Colonel Marine Headquarters Smoker."
"I'm Marine Headquarters Hina." A clear laugh came from the other end of Den Den Mushi: "Haha~~Hina saw the recent newspaper, 'Flower Hunter' Smoker~~"
"Stop mentioning that thing!!" When he remembered that Loguetown was wearing a pink bathrobe, it was not only exposed, but also published in the newspaper. Smoker was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. Not only that, but even he " The title "White Hunter" was roughly tampered with into "Flower Hunter", which spread in just a few days and had a huge impact. Some people who couldn't stand Marine Headquarters's behavior even claimed that it was detrimental to the image of the navy and took the opportunity to suppress him.
"Hina expressed that he was shocked. When did you actually have such a unique hobby, and even Tashigi under you has the title of 'Male Sword'. Why don't you explain it? Captain Smoker--"
Hina extended the ending, which had a teasing meaning, and the relationship between the two was very good. If others had said this, Smoker would probably have thrown the table over.
Smoker moved the corner of his mouth and said through gritted teeth, "It's a good thing Buggy the Clown did. This cunning pirate plotted against me."
"Buggy the Clown?" Den Den Mushi's tone slowed down and Hina said in surprise, "Is it the 'East Blue's Worst' who has become famous recently?"
"This pirate is very dangerous. He is probably going to Grand Line soon. If you find his whereabouts, it is best to arrest him on the spot. Also, he took away my weapon, which is inlaid with Seastone. If you encounter it, you have to be careful."
"Is that so...Hina understands." Hina's voice became serious, and his serious expression was perfectly imitated by Den Den Mushi, "I will ask the superiors for help in capturing Buggy the Clown."
Number One Black Street of Loguetown.
"Boss, boss, big information!" A young man wearing a turban came over hurriedly with a newspaper in his hand.
"Don't be in a hurry, work calmly." Bartolomeo reprimanded calmly.
"Yes, yes, it's the news from Buggy the Clown!" The boy in the turban said breathlessly.
"What, are they those bastards from Buggy Pirates?!!"
As soon as the boy in the turban finished speaking, Bartolomeo jumped up and grabbed the newspaper. After reading it, he pressed it on the table and asked, "How long will it take for our ship to be built?"
"Boss, the shipwrights said it will take another month..."
"It will actually take another month..." Bartolomeo showed two fangs, "Where's the Navy? The photo of 'Tashigi' has been returned to them, right?"
"Yes, in order to clarify our innocence, it has been sent to Marine Base. The navy said that because no one was killed, so as long as we are willing to apologize publicly, compensate for the losses and clean the streets, they are willing to negotiate with us and let bygones be bygones..."
The boy in the turban softened his tone and looked at Bartolomeo in embarrassment, "Although their requirements are very harsh, it's better not to go against them. Flower Hunter Smoker is too difficult to deal with, and there are hundreds of brothers in prison!"
"Then make a public apology." Bartolomeo picked his nostrils nonchalantly, "How could I abandon my lovely little brothers!!"
"Woooo..."
Not only the guy in the headscarf, but all the gangsters present covered their faces and cried bitterly, "As expected of our beloved boss Barto, it's so touching!!"
In the center of a certain island in Grand Line, a Shanks man wearing baggy cropped trousers and a black cloak sat on the stone slab, looking at the newspaper spread out on the ground, blinking hard, and suddenly laughed heartily, "Hey, it's him, it's that boy Buggy!!"
"What's wrong, Shanks..." Another tall man came over with a cigarette in his mouth, a little confused as to why the captain was suddenly so excited.
Shanks pointed to a photo in the newspaper and said with some emotion, "Benn Beckman, this is the guy who was an intern on Captain Roger's ship with me. This is the first time I have heard about him in so many years... It really makes people miss that time of fighting and fighting."
"The crew on the Pirate King Roger ship..." Benn Beckman picked up the newspaper and read the information carefully, not daring to let go of any information. "There was a big fuss in Loguetown, and we are just about to enter Grand Line..."
"Don't underestimate the enemy, this kid is not an opponent that can be underestimated, haha!!" Shanks laughed, "To celebrate this kid entering Grand Line, let's have a banquet today!!"
"Oh!! There's a party!!" The surrounding pirates responded excitedly with their hands raised in the air.
"Buggy the Clown..." Benn Beckman secretly remembered this name in his heart. He was a crew member with Shanks on Pirate King's ship, and he was also valued so much by Shanks. This man should not be simple.
