Chapter 210: Coke Island
The war with Toothless Pirates finally has finished. There are no casualties among the Clowns and they just get injured. Now they are looting the enemy ship before leaving for the next island.
In this war, Brook & Deon have made some good progress. Brook can use the coldness of death in his attacks now. Deon has used A-Haki hardening in his last attack when he went all out.
Manba couldn't awaken his A-Haki, but he has improved his O-Haki and his spearsmanship. None of the normal crew members awaken their Haki. It has just been 2 weeks since they started their Haki training, after all.
But Deon's progress makes Enel jealous because he still can only use colorless A-Haki. So Buggy promises to let him fight the next strong opponent. It will stimulate his growth faster than just training.
For now, they just need to celebrate their victory by having a party. It's their first war in New World, after all, so it's worth a celebration. They also get a lot of loot from their enemy, so they can spend some immediately.
Their next destination is Coke Island, which will take a week from Giza even with Black Pearl's top speed. It is an island with abundant coal resources even though it's not a big island. Beasts Pirates conquer this island for the coal because they need it to fuel their factories in Wano.
Buggy plans to take over the island and stop the coal supply. Of course, he knows that Beasts Pirates won't stay silent and will take over the island again. But that's fine because it will still cut off their supply for some time.
Besides, Buggy intends to take all the coal that has been mined and sell it. He will also plant some spies among the locals & miners to inform him if Beasts Pirates come again. If they come again, then he will just beat them up again.
His objective is to reduce Beasts Pirates' power slowly before the main war. It will also be good training for his men because the Beasts Pirates are strong. This way, they can weaken the enemy, get stronger, and gain loots in the process.
But Buggy knows it won't be that easy because the opponent is Kaido. He knows that Kaido won't leave Wano because Oden is still there. At most, he will just send the All-Star. But there will always be a possibility.
Well, if Kaido comes, then they just need to do something based on the situation. They can fight back if the situation is in their favor or just run away. Their main objective is still the main war in Wano, after all.
The Clowns keep training on their way to Coke Island. They finally arrive in 8 days because they take it rather easy. In these 8 days, they also have an electric therapy session and obviously made some good progress.
"So that's Coke Island. It's still very far, but let's start our plan. Palu, Deon, it's time," says Buggy while looking at the far away Coke Island with a scope.
Palu & Deon nod before they go to the lower cabin to do their plan. Soon, a small submarine shaped like a jet comes out of a door at the left of Black Pearl. Palu & Deon operated it and they go to the island first.
"Yeah, it will benefit us & them. I doubt there will be someone strong among them but it will be difficult to find them. Deon is working on it now and I hope it will be fast," says Buggy.
They talk more about the plan as they approach the island. Palu also has returned with the submarine after Deon finished his main job. If Deon failed, then he will return with Palu, but there's no need to do it now.
The Clowns get ready for the battle as the ship is getting closer to the island. They all have new weapons now after Gil made them using good materials. Their previous weapons were their loots and have decent qualities.
But Gill can make better weapons, so it's better to ask him to make weapons for the crew. Weapons are very important for pirates like them, after all. The weapons' qualities contribute a lot to their victories.
Black Pearl finally arrives on the island after some time. Then some Beasts Pirates that guard the port approach their ship. Without waiting for the enemies to talk, the Clowns kill the guards immediately.
Of course, it causes a ruckus but that's good because now the enemies will come here themselves. There's no need to search for them and it will save time. They kill all the guards in the port and gather a lot of attention.
Buggy smirks & says, "Let's hunt the Beasts."
