30. Fvneel

The Clown Pirates have an all nighter party with the Kraken family & wolf pack. They didn't succeed in their exploration, but they still celebrate it. Few people have ever step a foot on North Pole, so it's worth a celebration.

At morning, the Clown pirates prepare to leave the North Pole. They keep some meat of the giant fishes for supplies. After everything prepared, the Clown Pirates bid farewell to the Krakens & wolves.

"See you in the future, guys! Stay safe!"-Mantis

"Go find us if you need our help!"-Buggy

"How will they find us who'll keep sailing on the sea?"-Cricket sweatdrop

The Clown pirates sail away while waving their hands to the Krakens & wolves. The krakens & wolves also wave their tentacles & legs back. It just a short time, but they've found some bizarre friends.

"Where will we go now, Captain?"-Cricket

"Let's explore the remaining islands on North Blue, then we'll go to West Blue."-Buggy

The Clown pirates start their journey to explore North Blue. They'll go to some islands, habitated or uninhabited. First, they go to Lvneel, much to Cricket's annoyance. This is his home island after all, and many residents here are mocking his family, so he doesn't really like this place.

"You can stay on the ship if you want."-Buggy

"Alright, i don't want to return before i can surpass Norland."-Cricket

Buggy & Mantis then walk to the Kingdom and plan to buy supplies. They've run out of water & seasoning after their party with Krakens & Wolves. Some other supplies also emptied last night, so they need to buy a lot now.

They enter the town and it seem like a normal town. There's nothing out of ordinary here, so they start their search for supplies. They buy many things and Buggy carry them by himself. After some hours, they get all their supplies.

"Are you okay, Captain?"-Mantis

"Yeah, it's not that heavy. My splitted body's levitation ability is really useful actually. It can help me carry something heavy easier, like it reduce the weight a lot."-Buggy

To carry the big lump of their supplies, Buggy detached his upper body. He split his upper body into some parts to hold the groceries that shaped like a big ball. His head is also detached and Mantis carry it, while his legs are walking normally.

"Well, it's good that we can carry so many things at once, but the people here are freaking out."-Mantis

Mantis look at the people who are afraid of Buggy's devil fruit ability.

"Heeh, now they'll know that devil fruit is real, and not a myth. So i am actually giving them some important knowledge here, they should be thankful."-Buggy nod to himself

"If you say so."-Mantis

They continue to walk back to their ship, but then they see something. They see a small kid with chestnut hair being bullied by some teenagers that seem to be around Buggy's age. They ridicule the chestnut haired kid because he is the descendant of the infamous Norland the 'Liar'.

"So you think Norland ia a liar?"-Bugg

"Yeah, he is the biggest liar in the world."-Bully 1

Buggy levitate his head and talk to the bullies from behind. The Montblanc kid see Buggy's head fly, make him stunned & shaking in fear. The bullies didn't look back, so they don't know that Buggy levitate his head. They just become more excited seeing the Montblanc kid shaking in fear.

"Oho, what lie that he made & sound ridiculous?"-Buggy

"Of course the gold city is the most ridiculous. Even all of his story sound like a lie now. I mean dwarves, island at bottom of the sea, that sound ridiculous."-Bully 2

"Ooh, then what do you think of devil fruit?"-Buggy

"Of course that's just a myth, no way that thing is true."-Bully 3

"Then if devil fruit exist, shouldn't dwarves, giants, island under the sea, and even a city of gold exist too?"-Buggy

"Hah, there's no way any of that exist?"-Bully 1

"How can you be so sure?"-Buggy

"DAMN, WHY'RE YOU KEEP ASKING US QUESTION? YO-"-Bully 1 pissed

Bully 1 turn around and see Buggy's flying head, he is frozen now. The other 3 bullies also turn around and freeze when they see the flying head. Then they see the bodyless legs, and some pieces of body that sticking on the big grocery ball.

""GYAAAHH, DEVIIILL!""-Bullies

The bullies run away, leaving the Montblanc kid shaking in fear by himself.

"Hahahaha, you're right, this is the devil fruit ability, hahaha."-Buggy

"Hihihi. Captain, you're really a bad person, you know."-Mantis

"I am a pirate, so i am a bad person, hahaha. Beside, i hate it when some some older people gang up on a kid."-Buggy smirk

Buggy really have his fun now, and Mantis also giggle in amusement.

"I-is that really a devil fruit ability?"-Montblanc kid

"Hmm? Yeah, it is."-Buggy

"COOL! Then, that means that what Norland said was true?"-Montblanc kid

"Who knows? If you want to know, find it out yourself! Set out to the sea, and see the world! It's very dangerous, so you need to be prepared. This world is so big and have so many mysteries that you won't be able to discover it all in your whole life."-Buggy smirk

"Whoaa, so cool!"-Montblanc kid have stars in his eyes

"Hehe, you need to dream high, kid! Let's go Mantis! We still have a long journey."-Buggy

Buggy & Mantis walk away, leaving the amazed kid behind. On his journey to Lvneel, Buggy the Clown have gain a little fan.

Buggy & Mantis return to the ship and manage all their supplies before sailing away. They'll go to their next destination, Flevance, or also known as the White City. Flevance is also the homeland of Trafalgar Law.

'Law's father was the best doctor on Flevance, so i will try to warn him of Amber Lead Syndrome. He is smart, so i'm sure he will realize it after i give some clues. I can't be too obvious, because it can lead to panic in the country.'-Buggy

Buggy will try to give warning to the people of Flevance. He know that WG have found out about the danger of Amber Lead, and the Country's royalties too. However, they hide it from the public so they can keep getting profit, and that lead to it country's demise.

Buggy will warn them, but it's still up to them to heed his warning or not. He is not obligated to save them, they need to save themselves. Sure Buggy symphatize with them, but he also symphatize with other poor people like Ohara. He can't save everyone in the world, so they need to save themselves.

The Clown Pirates reach Flevance after 2 days. Buggy & co immediately go to the hospital where dr. Trafalgar work. This country also known to have some good doctors, so maybe Buggy can get a ship doctor here.

They finally arrive in the hospital and ask the receptionist about dr. Trafalgar.

"Did you have any business with dr. Trafalgar Liam?"-Receptionist

"Did a patient need to have any business with a doctor?"-Buggy raised an eyebrow

"*Cough* T-that's not what i mean, i mean did you have any appoinment with him?"-Receptionist

"Yes, he asked me to come here after all."-Buggy

"He haven't told me anything though."-Receptionist

"Well, he told me to come if i feel my condition worsened. So unless you think he can predict precisely when it will happen, then there will be an appointment with my name on it."-Buggy

"... I-i understand. Then please follow me."-Receptionist

The receptionist leave the counter to her co-worker and lead the Clowns to Trafalgar's room. The room is located on the 3rd floor, so they need to use the stairs. They reach the room after some minutes and the receptionist enter the room first.

"Please wait here while i tell dr. Trafalgar!"-Receptionist

Of course the Clowns won't do it, and they just barge inside.

"WAIT, YOU THREE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I TOLD YOU TO WAIT OUTSIDE!"-Receptionist

Buggy ignore the receptionist and walk to dr. Trafalgar.

"Trafalgar, i have something serious to talk with you. This is about your people, and of course your family."-Buggy

dr. Trafalgar look at Buggy seriously and then at the receptionist that being held by Mantis.

"Alright, i will listen to it, just let her go please!"-Trafalgar

"Mantis!"-Buggy

Mantis release the receptionist and let her go outside. Then Buggy sit on a chair in front of Trafalgar while Cricket & Mantis guard the door. Buggy lean on the table with serious expression and look at Trafalgar.

"What do you know about Amber Lead?"-Buggy
