Big Top continues to move forward towards Reverse Mountain. The red mountain in front of us can be vaguely seen among the lingering clouds and mist.
Buggy held the newspaper in his hand with relish. The headline on the newspaper was on the first page, "Shocked, Loguetown Navy Captain Smoker actually did such an immoral thing!"
Below is a photo of Smoker with a ferocious face, wearing a pink bathrobe and running wildly on the road. This is probably the clearest one selected from dozens of photos taken. Even the hair on the legs can be clearly counted.
"Flower Hunter Smoker..." As he thought, Buggy inevitably laughed out loud, as if he had done something extraordinary.
Then he handed the newspaper to Mohji on the side and took out a reward list mixed with the newspaper, which was his own.
[Buggy the Clown]
The reward is 48 million Beli, life or death.
This bounty is a bit high... In the original book, Luffy defeated Buggy Pirates, Krieg Pirates and Arlong Pirates, and only offered a bounty of 30 million. Now it has been directly raised from 19.5 million to 48 million. It is conceivable that Marine Headquarters attaches great importance to itself.
Just as Buggy was thinking about it, Mohji and Cabaji over there were already making trouble.
"One-Eye Hotel long, this 'Male Sword' Tashigi is dressed up by you, right? Others can't recognize it, but for me, Mr. Mohji, I can recognize it at a glance. Haha, you are so funny when you wear a skirt!"
"I'm obviously very cautious, how could I be photographed..." As he spoke, Cabaji realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and quickly denied it, "I don't know that kind of guy..."
Mohji took the newspaper and walked towards Shuma, "Shuma, come and see, is this Cabaji?"
Cabaji was angry and stopped the other party. "White-haired monster, wait for me!"
"Okay, don't argue." Buggy stretched out his hand to lift the two of them apart, "Get ready to enter Reverse Mountain."
"I know..." the two of them said at the same time.
"The current has become stronger." Mikuru The cat's ears trembled and he looked at the sea in front of him seriously, "Scarf, prepare to furl your sails. If you go too fast, it will be difficult to adjust the direction of travel."
"It's really good at summoning people..." Cabaji said after all, his hands were not idle, and he quickly furled the sails.
"Sheep, turn the rudder to the left at 11 o'clock!" Mikuru shouted immediately, completely different from his usual lazy appearance.
"Stop using those weird nicknames!" Mohji turned the wheel according to the other party's instructions reluctantly.
"Hey, that red mountain is so big!!" Shuma raised his head and looked into the distance with an incredible look on his face.
"We are finally reaching the starting point of Grand Line, Reverse Mountain..." Buggy murmured as he looked at Red Line getting closer and closer.
Mikuru gave a shot of prevention to most people who have never seen Red Mountain: "Get ready to climb the mountain!"
The Red Mountain towers high in the clouds, is majestic and exudes a long-lasting atmosphere. Compared with it, Big Top is like a tiny ant.
The strong suction of the current pushed Big Top towards the ocean current of the Hongshan Central Canal. The rough sea rocked the pirate ship left and right, and the gap in the cliff in front of us became increasingly clear.
"Okay, climb up in this direction in one breath!!" Mikuru shouted excitedly.
With her excellent continuous command and adjustment of the direction of travel, Big Top followed the current and successfully sailed into the middle canal.
At this time, Buggy was attracted by the gates on both sides of the canal in the middle of the cliff, and there was a doubt in his heart. Who built this gate at the entrance of Grand Line? And who carved the pattern of a dragon head and a fish body on it?
Does the dragon head and fish body mean that after entering Grand Line, it is like a fish jumping over a dragon gate? Or does it have other meanings? Is there anything hidden behind the gate that can be built in such a violent ocean current...
Just in a daze, Big Top had safely passed the gate along the sea current and continued to sail towards the top of the mountain. The gate slowly became smaller and disappeared from sight.
Buggy shook his head and stopped thinking about it, while the sky in front of him was getting closer and closer. Following the ocean current, the ship moved faster and faster, and the sea breeze blew everyone back.
Gradually, I passed through layers of thick clouds, and when I looked back, my eyes were filled with sea of clouds, and I could no longer see the scenery below.
"Don't be careless, the current is going to rush downward!" Mikuru reminded loudly.
As she finished speaking, the speed of the sea current slowed down a lot. In the next moment, it accelerated downward and began to go down the mountain.
"Haha, it's so interesting, the road of saliva in the middle of the Persimmon Cake Continent!!" Shuma hugged the ship's mast and shouted happily without any nervousness.
"Cat, have you been here before?" Buggy asked.
"No, but I stole a copy of Reverse Mountain's route map from the warship." Mikuru replied, "However, I put it in Cocoyasi Village."
"That's right." Buggy nodded. Reverse Mountain is not a single track that can only be entered and cannot be exited. For example, in the original book, Krieg was once chased by Mihawk and escaped from Grand Line back to East Blue. Therefore, it is not unusual for warships to have Reverse Mountain's route map.
Following the downward current, I could basically see only gauze-like clouds and mist in my field of vision. When I saw the scene in front of me clearly, it was already more than ten minutes later, and the waves on the sea finally calmed down a lot.
"No..." Buggy suddenly remembered something. He remembered that in the original work, when Luffy passed through Reverse Mountain, there was also a whale Laboon that looked like a hill. If he collided with it now, it would be terrible!!
He shouted loudly, "Shuma, look what's blocking it in front of you?"
Shuma looked over and said, "Report, there is nothing in front!"
No, Shuma's eyesight is definitely trustworthy. So, Laboon is no longer in the way. Buggy breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that he has made the right time.
Big Top sailed down Reverse Mountain smoothly. After the downward inertia rushed out for a certain distance, the ship's speed began to become very slow.
"Get ready to turn the rudder and dock, Mohji."
Now that we are here, it would be better to pay a visit to the ship's doctor who has been sailing with us for three years.
Buggy looked towards the lighthouse on Twin Cape. From the corner of his eye, he could see a simple boat docked next to Red Line. Are there other visitors?
Mohji slowly turned the rudder and gradually docked the ship on the shore.
"Let's drop anchor first, we're going to stay here for a while."
After saying that, Buggy climbed up to Red Line and shouted in the direction of the lighthouse, "Is uncle Crocus here?"
A figure walked out of the corner of the lighthouse, holding a newspaper in his hand, "Who is calling me?"
He pushed up his glasses and stared at Buggy for a long time. Finally, a look of surprise appeared on his face, "Aren't you Buggy?!"
"It seems that after all these years, your memory is still so good." Buggy smiled at the other party, "I thought you would forget me."
"I almost forgot about you, but you made too much noise." Crocus put the newspaper on the leisure table, "Buggy the Clown is the town where the ruckus begins and ends."
It's Loguetown's news again... Buggy spread his hands and was speechless, and then shouted to the ship, "You all come up, kitty, go and wake up Kaya."
Kaya drank a lot of wine, and then he lay drunk in the room and never woke up. I'm afraid Reverse Mountain didn't even know about it.
"By the way, he... is still inside." Crocus clapped his hands, suddenly remembered something, and walked towards the lighthouse, "Buggy, wait a minute, there is an acquaintance inside."
