Transcended as Lord Buggy - Chapter 370

Chapter 370: Just A Business

“Shiki? Why’re you asking about that bastard to me? I don’t know where he is and I don’t care about it. He can die or live anywhere he wants, it’s none of my business,” says Wang Zhi.

“Oh, what a cold thing to say to your former crewmate. But well, I never thought that you would know his location,” says Buggy while shrugging his shoulders.

“Then why you asked?” asks Wang Zhi with a big tickmark on his forehead.

“Why? Well, I just want to have a talk,” says Buggy while spreading his arms & fingers in a dramatic motion.

Wang Zhi is pissed by Buggy’s reason, but then that feeling turns into a surprise. His men’s bodies and weapons suddenly get cut into pieces. Then they fall on the floor, but no blood comes out of their bodies and they are still alive.

“What do you think, Wang Zhi? Do you have time to talk calmly with me now?” asks Buggy while grinning like a devil.

Buggy’s finger is pointed at Wang Zhi, making the man nervous. He didn’t even see Buggy’s attack coming before his men get cut to pieces. So he knows that Buggy can cut him to pieces before he can do anything.

“Fine, let’s talk somewhere else,” says Wang Zhi before walking up the stairs.

They finally have their talk in an office on the 5th floor. It seems to be Wang Zhi’s office which he uses quite often. Buggy sits on an empty seat without waiting to be asked, but Wang Zhi doesn’t say anything.

“Let’s not waste time. Wang Zhi, I’ll give you a lot of money,” says Buggy while smirking.

Wang Zhi raises an eyebrow and asks, “What the hell are you talking about?”

“You can make a lot of money through me. I know that you won’t agree to work under me, so it will be a business between you and me. You aren’t an idiot, so I’m sure you know who I am in this case, right?” asks Buggy.

“Jester,” says Wang Zhi calmly.

“Bingo! I’m sure you know where I’m going with this. This place is filled with pirates and they all need weapons,” says Buggy.

“You want me to sell your weapons to those pirates, am I right?” asks Wang Zhi.

“That’s right. I will sell my weapons to you at lower prices, and you can sell them at whatever prices you want,” says Buggy.

“What about the shipping?” asks Wang Zhi.

“It depends on how much you buy. If you buy a lot at once, then I can make it free. Even if it’s not free, you will still get a lot of profit. Our weapons are the most popular weapons among pirates currently. But the supply can’t meet the demands yet and it will never be,” says Buggy while grinning.

“So you aren’t selling more of the weapons on purpose, huh?” asks Wang Zhi before scoffing.

“High-end products will be better if they are rarer, you know. Besides, we are also producing normal-grade weapons with better build quialities. We made these normal weapons more than the demands, but they are still sold out every time we released them. Even if our normal weapons have the same firepower as other weapons, the build qualities are better, so they are more durable. All of our products are highly demanded by the market,” says Buggy while giving a hand signal to Dela.

She walks forward and hands some papers to Wang Zhi. The papers contain their weapons’ specifications and the buying limit for each type. Wang Zhi reads it thoroughly because he is already interested in this business.

“The restrictions?” asks Wang Zhi while reading.

“Other than quantities for all products, you can do what you want,” says Buggy.

“You limit the quantities even though you said the shipment will be free if I purchase a lot of them,” says Wang Zhi with a raised eyebrow.

“Then I guess you need to buy everything within the limits,” says Buggy while smirking.

“Tch, what a scam. Let’s do it this way. I will agree to sell your products within the limit, but I’ll do the shipping myself. No one else is allowed to sell these weapons on Hachinosu and the 4 nearby islands, even you,” says Wang Zhi.

“Not a problem,” says Buggy.

They talk a little more before they finally sign an agreement. Hachinosu will stay in Wang Zhi’s hands until Teach takes it in the time skip. There are some years left, so Buggy still can do this business with Wang Zhi for some years.

After finishing the transaction, Buggy & Dela leave the skull fortress. They are exploring the island now because they’ve done their business. Dela is exploring with Buggy because this place is dangerous and the safest place is beside Buggy.

Unlike before, they don’t get blocked by idiot pirates again. Instead, the pirates are afraid of them while whispering to each other. Buggy eavesdrops on their conversations and finally realized why they all are afraid.

His crewmates have explored most of the places on this island while he negotiated with Wang Zhi. They move in groups, so they can cover a lot of places at once. Also, exploration is their specialty, so they can do it fast and efficiently.

It’s easy to guess what happened when his crewmates were exploring. They’ve obviously met many idiots and kicked their asses already. That’s why now these people are afraid of him because he is the crew’s Captain, so he must be more powerful.

Well, Buggy is glad he doesn’t need to do anything and can enjoy his exploration. He & Dela walk around peacefully and sometimes meet their crewmates who also enjoy their time here without any disturbance from other pirates. They return to the ship when the sun almost set.

The crew stays at Hachinosu for just 2 days because it’s getting boring here. Many people challenged them on the 1st day, but there were none on the 2nd day. There are no more idiots here, so this place isn’t interesting anymore.

They leave Hachinosu and sail to another island again. After they get quite far from Hachinosu, Buggy calls Deon to the Captain’s room. He has given Deon a job on Hachinosu and it’s a very important job.

“How is it?” asks Buggy.

“It wasn’t easy, but I found it. And just like what old man Whitebeard said, he has a lot of these things,” says Deon while passing a tiny piece of paper that has been stored in a small glass tube to Buggy.

“Are you sure this is what we are looking for?” asks Buggy while looking at the tiny piece of paper that starts moving slowly.

“Yeah, he organized them well, so I’m sure this is Shiki’s vivre card,” says Deon.

This tiny piece of paper is a vivre card, and it’s Shiki’s vivre card.

“I’ve also taken tiny pieces of the other vivre cards that he has. Maybe they’ll be handy in the future, so I took them all,” says Deon.

“Good, that’s a very nice move,” says Buggy while grinning.

When Buggy met Whitebeard a few months ago before exploring the old man’s territories, Whitebeard told Buggy something interesting. They were talking about many things before they suddenly talk about Shiki who escaped from Impel Down and has disappeared since then.

Buggy then said that it would be great if he could fight Shiki. He said he wanted to surpass Roger, so he wanted to fight every one of Roger’s rivals, including Whitebeard. It amuses the old man, but they didn’t start a fight because Buggy wanted to explore New World first.

Then, the drunk old man told him something very interesting. Whitebeard told Buggy that Wang Zhi has a hobby of collecting strong people’s vivre cards by taking samples of their bodies like hair or nails. It includes everyone in Rocks Pirates like him, Shiki, Big Mom, Kaido, John, etc.

Buggy asked why Whitebeard told him that because he isn’t the type of person who likes to spread others’ secrets. So Whitebeard told Buggy that he met Shiki a while after the Golden Lion escaped Impel Down. Shiki asked him to join the plan of conquering the world together, which he refused immediately.

Whitebeard has heard Shiki’s rough plan from the man himself and he hated it. But he didn’t do anything because fighting Shiki at that time would cause too many casualties. And that choice made him restless for a long time because he knows what atrocities Shiki can make.

That’s why he told Buggy the method to find Shiki. When Buggy asked him why he didn’t hunt Shiki himself, he said that he was too busy with many things here. That is just an excuse, of course, but Buggy still doesn’t know his real reason to this day.

“Well, whatever. His reason isn’t important. The most important thing now is that I can find The Golden Lion Shiki. Let’s beat his ass after this journey ended,” says Buggy before throwing the vivre card tube to Deon so it can be stored in a good place.

The Clown Pirates continue their way to the next island. Their New World exploration is going quite smoothly now.
