8. Eight

Buggy dress in a hoody covering his head walk with his crew members in groups of 5 in the alleyways. It is around midnight and the night is dark and quiet apart from some occasional sounds coming from tavern and bars. There are also sounds of pleasure coming from some dark corners.

Walking silently in the alleyways they reach the boundary of the nobleman district. Buggy already told his crew during meal time to refrain from killing unless neccessary as he didn't want further complications. Killing is a serious crime whereas robbery or stealing will at most earn them the name of Bandits.

Looking at the the middle of the town and waiting for his fodder crew members to set houses on fire to distract towns army and guard, he is filled with anticipation for the treasures he will get tonight.

Though there is some natural conscience against killing and stealing, he decided to proceed as he is not strong enough like his former crew and to increase his strength he is going to need to do many shady things to get S.P. Besides since he decided to be a pirate he is going to be a real pirate searching for treasure and living freely doing what he wants.

After waiting for around 20 minutes ( yeah there are watch in onepiece, no need for incense stick..) Commotions starts in the central part of the town, and it keeps on growing every second and after around 5 minutes there is already a large fire which can be seen by Buggy and his crew.

Towns police and other guard started running from different parts of the town toward the fire as the central town is the place for shops and other industry used by aristocrats and nobles for their income of wealth.

Buggy said to the man on the left, " Start the operations now, and finish everything and gather on the eastern gate after 30 minutes".. And he proceeded towards the biggest mansion with his 3 lackeys. At the same time other groups also started spreading around on different mansions.

Walking toward the biggest mansion, there are sounds coming from there as the nobles and their servants must have woken up due to the fire. As people's minds often stays with their treasures, nobody can peacefully sleep when there is a potential fire in their shops and industries.

Reaching the lawn, Buggy told his 3 lackeys to capture the servants and any leftover house guards. He told them " kill the servant or anyone who fights back, but don't destroy the house" and they walk toward the house.

Reaching the house Buggy decided to the jump on the 2nd floor which is lit up. Opening the window and entering the room, he sees 6 people inside the room. There are 2 young boys and a small girl as well as 2 people dress in luxurious attire which should be their parents.

What caught his eye was the middle age men dress in black windbraker standing near the door. The man seems to be a trained fighter as he reacted swiftly standing before the man of the house looking fiercely Buggy.

After inspecting the man carefully the tense muscles on Buggy relax and he said to the man,

"Oh you should be a trained fighter, wanna join me?"

And looking at the nobleman he continued to speak, " I am here to take your treasures, so hurry up and give them to me unless you don't value your life" while pointing at the guard in black he said, " That guy will not be able to save you".

While Buggy continued to speak there are occasional screams and weeping coming from the ground floor. The nobleman knows that he can only depend on the guard so he look at the man and whispered, " Teddy, do you think you can beat him?".

And the man replied, " I felt a great pressure from him. But my lord, i will die before i let anything happens to you", while seriously looking at Buggy. The wife and childrens seems to come to their sense and started screaming and crying.

Looking at them Buggy said, " Oi Oi, i don't have time to waste, hurry up tell me where you keep your treasures or i will start killing you. I don't really want to kill people but if you force my hand i don't mind. So, hurry up and decide", which makes the family members shut their mouth.

The man said, " Okay mister follow me i will lead you to our treasure vault, please stay your hand and don't hurt my family " while telling his wife and children to back off and shut up and quickly signaling his guard with his hands, he walk toward the stairs leading to the basement.

Buggy walk behind the man and said, " Hurry up lead the way" while following the man. After taking 3steps down the stairs the guard following behind them suddenly raise a knife hidden on his sleeve and stabs buggy on his back while screaming, "Bastard Thief die".

(Thud) Buggy falls on the ground while the man walks past him and cleans the blood from the knife while bending down looking at him and said , " My Lord there should be no more problem i stab him in the heart" and the nobleman replied, " Good good, my safety is assured with you around. Good job Teddy" . And proceeded to tap the man on the shoulder.

The man look at him and replied, " My lord can rest assured, i will guard you and your house as long as glurh glurh".. he can't finish his sentence as there is a knife embedded on his neck and 2 more at his back..

Buggy get up from the ground looking at the death body and said, " Wanting to kill me with your meagre skills". And he said, "You there, should i kill you too? I will just ask for your treasures from your family while enjoying myself with your wife". and looked at the nobleman

The nobleman screams, " No my lo lord please don't kill me i will give you all my treasures and my wife please spare me" and started crying.

Buggy looked at the man in contempt, the man even try to sells his wife to keep himself alive. He hates this kind of man the most and he has no interest in women except treasures. So he said, " Shut up, if you cry again i will skin you alive, take me to the treasure" and lift him up by the collar and walk toward the treasure room.

After 20 minutes buggy walk out of the mansion, while carrying a box filled with money and treasures and his 3 lackeys also walked behind him with lecherous smiles on their faces carrying box filled with food and treasures and barrels filled with wine.

Looking at his lackeys Buggy knows they might have enjoyed a quicky with the servants and he didn't mind as they are pirates and he didn't really care about the actions of his crew. Looking at the treasures, his mind is full of glee. How can a quicky with ladies compare to treasures, Right? 😏 A man should only care for treasures, thats why he decided to let one of his lackey cut off the D of the nobleman as he didn't like him.

Around 10 minutes later they reach the eastern gate and walk out from there and wait for the other groups still in the city. After everyone comes back they proceeded to head back to their camps.

On the center of the camp everyone keep all the food and drinks on one side and treasures on the other side. Buggy looks at everyone standing on the side looking at him and said, " All the food and drinks will be place in the care of Jimmy and Billy and you can enjoy yourself by partying tonight".

Standing beside the treasures, he separate a small part of the treasure and said, " Divide this among yourself, but don't ever tells anyone what we did tonight. As for the rest i will keep them for safekeeping and for buying a ship.After buying a ship we will head out to sea. Is there any objection". while looking at everyone while grinning and fiddling his knifes.

Everyone replied, "Yes Captain" and proceeded to divide the money amongst themselves. They seriously don't dare to oppose buggy as they are afraid of him and they are happy with the food and drinks.

Beside they have some money they pocketed themselves, which they can use to visit a brothel as they have only a bit of time earlier for a quicky. For degenerate like them servants in the nobles house are top quality specimens and they need to empty themselves further as the stimulation is still there. And after hearing about the ship, they are more enthusiastic about going out to sea and starting a pirate life.

Buggy walks in his own house while telling his lackeys to carry the treasures in his room. After closing the door he started counting the berries which is around 460million and looking at the treasures and gold he knew that he strike it rich tonight. He started to consider how much he should exchange in the system for S.P

Calling the system in his head he said ' System how much is the treasures worth' while taking away the knife made with gold for himself.

[ Host, the treasures should be worth around 250 m bellies]

Buggy starts to consider the amount of money and decided to exchange them for S.P. so he said, ' system convert all the trrasures for berries and exchange them for S.P. Also converts 350 million from the bellies into S.P'.

After buggy said that all the treasures disapper along with 3/4 of the bellies. Looking at all the disappearing treasures his heart ache but he know it is an investment for the future. With more strength he can earn more treasure.

[ Converting 350 million bellies and treasures worth 250m bellies into S.P.]

[ Calculating.. Host get 60,000 S.P. Host have a total of 85,000 S.P and 160 m bellies.]

Looking at the S.P and bellies buggy is happy to see his S.P go up by 60,000. Even though it is wasteful to convert Bellies into S.P it is the easiest way to earn System Points. Looking away from the screen he look at the weird fruit in front of him.

As a Devil Fruit user himself he certainly knows that the thing in front of him is a Devil Fruit. But he didn't know what kind of Devil Fruit it is. According to the lackey who found it, even the noble who owns it doesn't know what it is and decided to keep it away waiting for a chance to find out what it is and sell it to the best buyer.

Looking at the Devil Fruit that looks like a weird star fruit he decided to convert it into S.P as he knows that Devil Fruit sells for a high price on the System.

He asked, 'System what kind of Devil Fruit is this? How many S.P can i get from this?'

[ Host, the Devil Fruit is a Bird type Zoan Devil Fruit named Sparrow Sparrow fruit, eating this will allow the user to become a Sparrow Human Bird. The Host can sell it to the system for 100,000 S.P]

Looking at the price Buggy jaw almost fall on the ground. He got 60,000 S.P in exchange for all those treasures and he got 100,000 S.P for some Zoan type Devil Fruit. This is the best ever deal for him, so he called the system, ' System exchange the Devil Fruit for S.P.'

As the Devil Fruit disappear, Buggy hears the system say,

[ Host recieve 100,000 S.P. from Devil Fruit. Host total System Points is 185,000 S.P]

Looking at his S.P he decided to open the System Shop and spent 100,000 S.P to buy the skills { Basic Introduction to Haki}. After buying the skills, all kinds of information about Haki appears in his mind as if a great teacher imparted them in his mind. Opening his eyes Buggy's eyes are filled with ecstacy.

" Now i can start my legendary pirate life of Buggy D. Clown zieehaha, I will be the flashiest Clown ziehhahah". Looking at his remaining 85,000 S.P. He decided against buying the marine Rokushiki and decided to spend 15,000 S.P on the book {Basic Introduction to developt Chop Chop Fruit} which is a neccessary as he needs to developt his devil fruit.

Looking at the remaining 70,000 S.P he decided to save them in case of an emergency. He decided against buying Ship on the System Shop and decided to just rob some good ships from other pirates when there is a chance.

<Edward POV>

Looking at the large amount of treasures and bellies entering my inventory along with a Devil Fruit, a thick grin formed on my face..

" Hahaha it's so great cheating treasures from the man who values treasures more than his life hahaa". You see i can't be blamed for this as i have also invest some S.P on buggy in the form of giving him missions using my own System Points like Saitama workout, gathering crew etc. But it is not a problem as i am gonna gain more by cheating him like i do right now and i am also going to get 60% of S.P from main missions from the System that Buggy Completed .

For example after hunting 20m bellies bounty pirate Buggy will get 40% of total S.P. But he did not need to know that, as i set 40% of the reward as a mission reward in the sub- System that he carries.

Besides i am going to get 90% of the S.P he used in the System shop as i sell my own stuff to him, while 10% will be taken by the main system. Looking at all the treasures and bellies i decided to exchange them for S.P as I have only spend around 30 million bellies from my original 3b bellies, and i will need large sum of money for my future plan.

So i decided to exchange the 600 m bellies and the Devil Fruit on the System shop for S.P. And i ask, 'System how many S.P did i get'. I spend 160,000 S.P on Buggy to get all this things, i wonder how much can i get out of it.

[ Host got 300,000 S.P for Zoan Devil Fruit Sparrow Sparrow Fruit]

[ Host got 600,000 S.P from converting treasures and Bellies into System Points]

[ Host current total S.P is 1.9 m S.P]

Looking at the figures i broke out in laughter and decided to reward Buggy with new skills Hahaha.
