One Piece: Reincarnated as Buggy the Clown

---

After giving the Golden Eagle Fruit to Lafitte, he immediately and eagerly ate it. He then returned to the Glory to get familiar with the fruit's abilities.

Buggy, carrying the Transparency Fruit, said goodbye to the rescued people and returned to the Glory.

Buggy didn't take all the gold and silver treasures. He left them as travel expenses and compensation for the rescued people.

They would need money to return home. This compensation would be considered a payment from the wrongdoers. This amount of money wasn't much for Buggy and his crew, and they didn't care about it.

After returning to the ship, they continued towards Lubni. Fifteen days later, they reached their destination, the Lubni Kingdom.

This kingdom wasn't as prosperous as the Illysia Kingdom.

Lubni was a small island nation, but it had its own unique style. All the buildings were built among mountains. High and low mountains surrounded the area. The main style of the houses was European, with most of the roofs made of wood. The overall environment was also very good, with lush greenery everywhere. It was a harmonious scene of nature and humanity intertwined.

Upon entering the city, they saw many people bustling about. They didn't rush to find Shiryu. Instead, they were led by locals to explore the city.

First, they were taken to the most famous landmark in the country, the place where the legendary liar Noland was executed 300 years ago.

It was a tall stone platform with a statue of a man kneeling with his hands bound. Two executioners with long swords stood on either side of him. This perfectly replicated the day Noland was executed.

This wasn't the original execution platform where Noland was executed. The wooden platform couldn't withstand 300 years. Later, because Noland's fame spread throughout the North Blue and beyond, the kingdom built this stone execution platform.

Looking at Noland's statue and his figure, which had been kneeling for over 300 years, Buggy couldn't help but sigh.

As a One Piece fan, Buggy knew very well about Noland's story. Everything Noland said was true. The Golden City of Shandora existed, but it had become part of the Sky Island.

The disappearance of the Golden City of Shandora made Noland and all his stories seem like lies. People believed they were just fairy tales that Noland had made up. This made him a laughingstock throughout the North Blue and beyond.

Noland paid a huge price for this, he paid with his life. Even if he had the power to resist and escape, he didn't. He chose to die.

Buggy admired this kind of person. Although he didn't agree with some of Noland's actions, he admired his courage in the face of death.

He also felt sad for Noland. Even after 300 years, he couldn't rest in peace. He was constantly ridiculed by the people of his country and people from all over the world. He was constantly kneeling in his country. This was undoubtedly very tragic.

He hadn't done anything wrong to his country, and he had never deceived the country. Yet, he was treated this way. Buggy had some thoughts. Maybe he could do something for Noland.

In the following days, Buggy took Jessica to her home. It was now abandoned. The doors, windows, and various parts of the house were damaged. The house was also turned upside down.

This was normal. This was the world of One Piece. How could a house without an owner not be destroyed?

Jessica wasn't too sad. She recovered quickly. Buggy asked her about her future plans, asking if she would be willing to be his chef. If she didn't want to, he could give her some money and leave her here.

This was the best opportunity for Buggy to extend his invitation. He expressed his thoughts immediately.

After thinking for a while, Jessica made a decision. She decided to become Buggy's chef. She no longer had any family here. Even her home was destroyed beyond repair. There was no reason to stay here.

And she got along well with Buggy and his crew. They weren't evil pirates. Sailing the seas with them was a good choice.

After exploring the city, they found an inn and rested for a night. The next day, Buggy prepared to find Shiryu.

This time, he didn't search everywhere as he had in the past. Buggy decided to wait for the rabbit to come to him.

He had learned from previous information that Shiryu was challenging famous swordsmen to hone his swordsmanship. He wasn't fixed in one place. If they searched for him, it would be very difficult.

Considering these problems, Buggy made a decision. He decided to set up a ring in the center of the kingdom and accept challenges from swordsmen from all over. This would build his reputation and make Shiryu come to him. Then, he would offer him conditions, defeat him, and promise him what he wanted. Perhaps this would be how to subdue him.

On that day, Buggy spent a sum of money to bribe some officials and obtained permission to set up a ring in the center of the kingdom and accept challenges from swordsmen. He also made a very arrogant statement.

On the first day, he found some people and spread some words that angered all the swordsmen. The content of the words was very simple. Buggy said that the swordsmen of Lubni were all trash. He could easily defeat all of them. To prove this was true, he set up a ring in the center of the kingdom and welcomed all swordsmen to challenge him.

After that day, many swordsmen in the kingdom came to Buggy's ring. Of course, the result was obvious. These swordsmen, who hadn't even reached the level of "Sword Cutting Steel," couldn't last a few moves under Buggy's deliberate restraint. The swordsmen's failures made the matter escalate. In the following days, more swordsmen gathered here.

This news quickly reached Shiryu, who was honing his swordsmanship in the kingdom. Hearing about such a powerful swordsman, he didn't hesitate to set off and head towards Buggy's location.

Time passed, and it was the third day. Buggy easily defeated another aging swordsman who was considered quite good.

The old swordsman had reached the level of "Sword Cutting Steel." But he had reached his peak. And he had only achieved this level through years of accumulation. So, he didn't have anything outstanding. He wasn't a match for Buggy, who was at the level of a swordsman. He was easily defeated by Buggy. Buggy didn't give the old swordsman any face. He mocked him as usual. The old swordsman left the ring dejectedly.

At that moment, Buggy saw a figure walking towards him. The person was about 20 years old, over two meters tall, tall and strong, with a very balanced physique. He had a wide jaw, a cigar in his mouth, and a sinister smile on his lips. He was wearing a white coat, and a sword was strapped to his waist. When Buggy saw this person's overall appearance, he knew that the person he was looking for had arrived.

As this person passed by from below, the swordsmen below didn't show the same excitement as they had when others challenged Buggy. Instead, they had a look of fear on their faces, as if death was walking towards them.

"Why is this killer here? He's killed so many people. How dare he come here?"

"Isn't it good that he's here? His strength is really good. Maybe he can defeat this person who has brought us shame."

"Yes, yes, he definitely has the possibility. At worst, it could be a draw. Then, hehehe."

Different conversations were whispered from the mouths of different swordsmen below. Many of them had fierce looks in their eyes. They looked at Shiryu with even more hatred than they looked at Buggy.

Buggy, standing on the ring, also heard some of this. He wasn't surprised by everyone's reaction. With Shiryu's personality, he had been honing his swordsmanship in this country. He had probably killed countless swordsmen. And these swordsmen had different relationships with other swordsmen. So, it was no surprise that many swordsmen hated him.
