307. Return to New World

2 months passed since they found out that Belle is pregnant. Buggy lets his crew do what they wanted in the last 2 months. Most of them are going around East Blue on their own using small ships or boats.

East Blue is an easy sea, unlike Grandline, so anyone in the crew can sail & navigate here themselves. They are experienced pirates who have sailed in New World, so sailing on East Blue is a very easy thing.

Anyway, Belle's stomach has bulged a little in the last 2 months. Buggy really likes to put his hands or ears there just to feel his baby inside there. He really wants to just stay here until Belle gives birth, but he knows it's impossible.

There will always be something that makes him unable to stay and that something comes now. Deon returns from his trip with his mermaid girlfriend hastily. He has contacted Buggy about the situation and he also contacted everyone else.

"Sorry about this, Belle, I need to leave now or it will be too late," says Buggy on the port as his crewmates who have just returned prepare the ship.

"Don't worry, B. We know it will happen eventually, this is the risk of having that position," says Belle while smiling bitterly.

Of course, as a wife, Belle wants her husband to be there with her during her pregnancy. But she also knows that she can't force Buggy to stay. He has a very important thing to do in New World that can't be left.

Besides, Buggy has left a Denden Mushi that won't get hacked by Marine. He used White Denden Mushi that can neutralize the Black Denden Mushi's interference. There's also a monitor which Ruff made that enables video transmission, a.k.a video call.

"I promise I'll return when you give birth, so take care of yourself. Nojiko, Nami, take care of your mother. Don't hesitate to call me," says Buggy.

"Don't worry, I will protect them. Nojiko is strong," says Nojiko with teary eyes, while Nami just straight up crying.

"Of course, you are super strong," says Buggy while patting their heads.

Buggy kisses their foreheads before kissing Belle and getting on the ship. The Clown Pirates leave Conomi Islands shortly afterward. Bellemere, Nojiko, Nami, and the villagers send them off as they sail away.

Buggy stays on the rear deck until the island is out of sight. He sighs heavily and then goes to the main deck. His sad expression turns into a serious one instantly as he arrives on the main deck.

"Deon, what's the situation?" asks Buggy.

"It's still under control. Big Mom Pirates haven't left their base yet. They are still preparing things," says Deon.

"Good, it seems we've gone for too long. That old hag thinks that this is a good opportunity. We'll show them and use them as an example that no one should mess with us. How dare she disturbs my vacation? I'll give her a good beating," says Buggy.

Big Mom Pirates are planning on attacking The Clown Pirates' base. Luckily, Buggy has planted some spies on Totto Land and they found out Big Mom's plan before Big Mom makes a move. Now they just need to get back as fast as possible before Big Mom Pirates arrive.

The Clown Pirates move toward Reverse Mountain at their highest speed. Conomi Islands aren't too far from Reverse Mountain so they can reach it in just an hour. Normal ships will take almost half a day to reach Loguetown and a few more hours to reach Reverse Mountain, so they are ridiculously fast.

The Black Pearl doesn't even use its sails, it only uses its machines. It uses all its propeller along with all its jet dials. The ship is so fast that it becomes a speed boat, well, a speed ship that can't be chased by any ship.

Of course, the Marine realizes their movement because they don't bother to hide it. But the Marine can't do anything to them because they are too fast. They can only notify their HQ about it so that Marine HQ can prepare for it.

The Clown Pirates climb the Reverse Mountain and reaches the peak fast. But they don't go to Paradise, they go to New World directly. It's not possible for other ships, but it's possible for The Black Pearl.

When the ship jumps on the peak, a pair of metal wings come out of the ship's hulls. The Black Pearl turns in the direction of the New World and it flies over the Red Line. 4 big pipes come out of the back of the ship and strong compressed air comes out of them, shooting the ship across the very wide Red Line.

"CAPTAIN, WE RUN OUT OF POWER. WE USED TOO MUCH ENERGY ON THE SEA BEFORE. WE WON'T HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO JUMP ACROSS THE RED LINE," shouts Ruff from the cabin.

"Tch, ENEL!" shouts Buggy.

"ALRIGHT, BUT I WANT SOME GOLD LATER," replies Enel while controlling the ship.

"JUST DO IT!" shouts Buggy.

Enel clicks his tongue but he still pours his power into the machine through the rudder. A pair of Jet Engines like that of a plane comes out of the hulls, right below the wings. They get activated and spin very fast, making the flying ship fly even faster.

The ship finally passes the Red Line and it keeps flying at high speed in the New World sky. Enel controls the ship to fly at a lower altitude because the air is thin. He also lowers his power output because the ship's batteries have been fully charged, so he only needs to maintain it.

"Jude, how long till we arrive?" asks Buggy.

"It depends on how long the ship can move at this speed. If we can maintain it, we can arrive in half a day," says Jude.

"Oi, do you want to kill me?" asks Enel.

"Let's preserve Enel's energy, he needs to fight later. Big Mom Pirates aren't easy opponents. Ruff, charge all our Dials, we will use every one of our machines to reach the base as fast as possible. Cricket, tell our main force to rest so they can fight well," says Buggy.

"Roger," replies Cricket while the others nod.

The ship flies fast and some minutes later they come across a stormy sky that releases massive chunks of ice. They can't afford to wait until the weather changes, so Buggy makes a move.

"Don't get in my way, you stupid weather," says Buggy pissedly as he swings his sword vertically.

Nothing comes out of his slash, but the dark sky suddenly gets split in half. Sunlight shines through the massive gap and no ice blocks fall in that area, giving the Black Pearl a clear path.

"His power just getting more ridiculous," says Enel while looking at the split sky.

"Marine will raise his bounty if they see this," says Jude while nodding.

"This is the minimum power for him if he wants to fare against people like Whitebeard, Big Mom, Garp, or Sengoku. The stronger our Captain, the better it is for our crew," says Cricket.

"Well, that's true, although I still can't understand his pace of growth," says Palu.

"You'll never understand a monster, so stop thinking about it," says Mantis.

Just as they admire Buggy's power, Brook suddenly says, "I wonder if there is a sky island up there. Maybe some people will fall through the gap. The ice rain will become people rain."

"STOP IT!" shouts the others.

Anyway, the ship can fly almost half the distance using Enel's power. Then they switch to use the Dials. Jet Dials, Breath Dials, engines powered by Fire Dials. They even use Impact & Reject Dials to push the ship using the recoils. They do anything to move as fast as possible.

"THAT'S HQ, CAPTAIN, OUR HQ IS ALREADY ON SIGHT. OUR MEN HAVE ENGAGED IN BATTLE AGAINST BIG MOM PIRATES" shouts a scout after they fly for half a day and sail on the sea for an hour.

"What?! They shouldn't arrive yet. Damn, our spies must've been exposed. EVERYONE, PREPARE FOR BATTLE! Let's sink their ships," orders Buggy.

The Clowns get ready to fight. The war of Clown Pirates against Big Mom Pirates has begun.
