33 Buggy the Clown

East Blue, the weakest sea.

It was unknown whether it was because of Garp that this sea region became the so-called weakest.

Of course, the word "weakest" referred to overall strength. After all, there were too many good-for-nothings in East Blue. In fact, although East Blue was indeed weak, it was far better than twenty years later.

Krieg Pirates, with its leader Krieg had a bounty of 17 million, and he could be called the largest pirate group of East Blue.

A merman who escaped from the Grandline would be the most powerful person in the entire East Blue. If it was said, it would only be regarded as a joke.

Although East Blue was not strong now, at least there were some pirates with 40 to 50 Million Bounty on their heads.

Then again, although East Blue was called the weakest sea, in Giotto's view, this sea could also be called the legendary sea because there were many powerful figures turned out to be born in this sea. In addition to Luffy, there were many famous figures who were born in this sea.

For example, the Pirate King Gol D. Roger, the Marine Hero Monkey D. Garp, the Revolutionary Army leader, Monkey D. Dragon, the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, Sabo, the world's number one sniper, Yasopp, etc.

Of course, as someone who was born in the New World, Giotto did not care about the comparison between the four seas. Everyone would have to enter the New World in the end, right?

At this moment, Giotto was lying in a room of a merchant ship, enjoying the boring sail in the sea.

This time, he came alone. Of course, it was impossible for him to sail on his own, so he took a merchant ship along the way.

"bang!"

Suddenly, a gunshot sound surprised Giotto. He slightly frowned as he had already sensed over a dozen people approaching with his Color of Observation Haki.

It is not strange that something like this happened on the sea. Merchants were used to pirates looting. However, this place was not far from Loguetown, and most pirates would be afraid of roaming around this area as it might draw Marine's attention. After all, a lot of Marines were stationed there since Roger's execution, and there might even be an Admiral stationed there.

Robbing a merchant ship near Loguetown was either brave or straight-out stupid!

"Hand over all the treasures, and don't do anything stupid. You should be honored that this great Captain Buggy is here to rob you! Hahaha!"

Just as Giotto was thinking about which kind of pirate that raid his ship, a familiar voice reached his ears. The moment he heard this voice, he was sure that this pirate who came to rob was definitely the latter between the two. Someone calling himself Captain Buggy on the East Blue and that unique voice coupled with a red nose, there was no one else other than his former comrade in the same ship.

Since it was him, then the matter should be easy to solve.

But then again, the current Buggy seemed to be only fifteen years old, and he had already formed his own pirate group.

However, this guy's strength hadn't improved from fifteen to thirty years old.

Thinking of this, Giotto pushed open the door of the room. At a glance, he saw Buggy holding a pistol, dressed like a clown, and more than ten random men. It seemed that the current Buggy hadn't met his comrade, and even his pirate ship was a really dilapidated one.

In other words, although the current Buggy could be considered to have established a pirate group, he only had a dozen small fries with him, and his head might not even be offered any bounty by the Marine.

A band of riffraff like them robbing nearby Loguetown was basically a suicidal move!

"Hey, Buggy, we haven't seen each other for a while, have we?"

Giotto leaned against the door and looked at his old acquaintance with a smile. "I went all the way to East Blue with this ship, can you cut us some slack for my sake? After all, we have been friends for many years. Don't tell me you won't even let us go?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Buggy raised his head, and Giotto's figure was completely reflected in his eyes. Then, his expression changed significantly.

Even a three-year-old child could see how shocked he was at this moment.

"Gi.. Gio.. Giotto!"

A scream came out of Buggy's mouth. Then he subconsciously took a few steps back and looked at Giotto carefully. "Didn't you go to the new world? Why are you here? I..If.. If you're here for a treasure map, I don't have any, alright?"

Buggy immediately tried to conceal his back waist. There was no doubt that he must have found a new treasure map, and then this thing was now placed at the back of his waist.

This guy, as a fifteen-year-old young man, was quite strong. After all, he was a Devil Fruit user, and he used to be the Pirate King's crew.

His courage, however...

It was hard to describe with words!

"Don't worry, I am not interested in your treasure map. But since you are here, can I borrow your ship?"

As he spoke, Giotto threw the map he had obtained from Shakky to Buggy. He then continued, "I want to go to the island marked on the sea map. If you have time, bring me there. Thank you."

After saying this, Giotto jumped and landed on Buggy's ship. Then, he found a random seat and sat down.

"Captain, captain!"

The crew shouted for some time before Buggy suddenly reacted. He glanced at the frightened merchants in front of him and then turned back to look at Giotto on his ship. After hesitating for a while, he finally made a decision, "Today is your lucky day. Out of my friend's sake, I'll let you go! Guys, let's go!"

He did not dare to say no to Giotto. In fact, when they were on Roger's ship, Buggy was very afraid of Giotto.

It was not because of Giotto himself, but because in Buggy's eyes, someone who could get along with Bullet like it was no big deal was definitely abnormal!
