Chapter 108: A Way to The Sky

Chapter 108: A Way to The Sky

After throwing the pirates to the faraway sea, Buggy walks back to Ruff. He picks Ruff up to his shoulder then he takes the fish bag.

"Little girl, where's your home?" asks Buggy to the little girl.

"It's-"

"NINA!?" shouts an old man who runs frantically from afar.

Buggy & the little girl look at the running old man. He is the fish seller that Buggy just met before.

"Grandpa, hua~," says Nina while crying and running to her grandpa.

"Are you okay? I heard some pirates are attacking you," says the old man while checking Nina's condition.

"*sniff* I'm okay, those big brothers helped me and defeat the bad pirates," says Nina while pointing at Buggy & the unconscious Ruff.

Nina's grandpa looks at Buggy and gets surprised. "It's you!?"

"Yo, old man. So you're her grandfather. I'll leave her to you, then. I need to treat him immediately," says Buggy.

"A-Alright. Thank you, young man," says the old man.

Buggy nods before leaving the location. He takes his denden mushi and calls Manba.

"Hello?" says Manba through the denden mushi.

"Return to the ship, now," says Buggy before closing his call.

Manba gets confused because Buggy does not explain anything. But he knows that it must be serious for Buggy to call him like that. He immediately returns to the ship even though he is still eating in a restaurant.

Manba arrived on the ship right after Buggy & Ruff. It surprises Manba when he sees Ruff's condition. Buggy tells him to check on Ruff's condition immediately before asking anything.

After some treatments, Manba tells Buggy that Ruff will be fine. There's no fatal injury and he will be healed in a few days. It makes Buggy relieved because Ruff is not that strong physically.

Buggy then explains what happened to Ruff before. It angers Manba, but he's glad that Buggy has taken care of it. They really need to train Ruff in direct battle so he can protect himself without relying on his weapons.

Soon, the other members returned and learn about the incident. They are relieved to know that Ruff is fine, although they're disappointed that they couldn't beat those guys.

"Do you find anything about the Sky Island?" asks Buggy to his crew.

Everyone shakes their heads because they didn't get any useful information. No one in the town talks about the Sky Island openly. It is like a taboo topic for them and no one believes that it exists.

"Sigh, people will never believe in something that they have never seen. Luckily, I found someone who might know something. We will go to his place after this," says Buggy.

"I think we need Ruff's help for this. He is the best for calculating something like this," says Palu.

"Alright, we will think about the details after Ruff woke up. For now, let's think of what we can do. Jude, how long will the Log Pose reset?" says Buggy.

"2 days," replies Jude.

"Then we need to finish it tomorrow or we won't be able to go there. Get ready to work all night without sleeping, you bastards," says Buggy while grinning.

"Aye aye," replied the Clowns lazily.

"WHAT'S WITH THAT ANSWER?" shouts Buggy angrily while knocking Palu's head.

"OUCH, WHY ME?" asks Palu while holding the bump on his head.

"Huh? Got a problem with that?" asks Buggy with a pissed tone.

"N-no," says Palu while smiling sheepishly.

"WHAT'S YOUR ANSWER?" asks Buggy while showing his fist.

"AYE AYE!" shouts the Clowns while saluting.

Nina giggles seeing the Clowns' antiques, "Hihi, funny pirates."

They start to work on planning the method to reach Sky Island. This is a difficult project that they need to finish. If this worked, then this will be one of their greatest achievements.
