Chapter 139: Kind Pirates

Chapter 139: Kind Pirates

"Such a nice exercise," says Buggy as he walks while stretching.

"Captain, these guys weren't helping at all," says Ruff in protest while pointing at the freed slaves. L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

"B-but we didn't know what to do. Besides, you took him away from us before," says a man.

"Then you should chase or throw your weapons at him," says Ruff annoyedly.

"Did you win?" asks Buggy.

"Hmm? Yeah, I win," says Ruff.

"Then what's the problem? It's fine as long as you win, right?" asks Buggy.

"We-well, it is, but still-," says Ruff before Buggy cuts him off.

"That's it, then. Case closed," says Buggy as he walks away.

"Captain, why're you treating me like this?" asks Ruff with a wronged tone as he grabs Buggy's foot with tears on his face.

Everyone on the passenger ship sweatdrops seeing Ruff who has a bigger & taller body than Buggy act like a kid. They are glad to be saved by these 2, but their actions need to be questioned.

Buggy ignores Ruff and just walks toward the mainmast. He drags the crybaby on the floor as if nothing is holding his steps. He reached the mainmast, Buggy gathers the freed slaves & hostages.

"This is as far as we can help you. You need to take care of yourself after this. Follow the Log Pose or call the Marine if you want, but we won't help you more than this. We are pirates, so don't hope too much from us. Even helping you is exceeding our capacities as pirates already," says Buggy.

"D-do pirates have capacities?" asks someone with a very low voice, but Buggy still hears it.

"Of course, we have! Our capacities are being criminals, lawless, and everything that makes us bad. So being kind and saving people like this aren't our capacities, it is Marine's. We have our job and shouldn't take their job," says Buggy with a righteous tone.

Everyone gets even more confused by his strange explanation. Even Buggy himself is getting confused by his words. He just spouted nonsense to answer that question.

"*Cough* Anyway, you need to take care of yourself after this," says Buggy.

The others also grin and get more spirited now. They also want to get stronger and enter the league of the strongest. It might be just a dream in the past, but now they know it is possible.

As they move to the next island, Manba is treating the civilians. Mantis cooks a lot of food for everyone because she knows they all are hungry. Meanwhile, Palu is fixing some damages on Little Hunter that he hasn't fixed after they fell from Birka.

Now The Clowns have a lot of supplies again after looting the Iron Shovels. They don't take anything from the passenger ship and even share some with the civilians. They also return everything that the Iron Shovel took from the passenger ship.

Even if Buggy said he didn't want to help the civilians more than they were, but he isn't that heartless to take their belongings after what happened to them. So he returned them and just take the ones that Iron Shovels had.

At night, they hold a party on the passenger ship that has a wide deck after tying Little Hunter on the ship's rear. The passengers and freed slaves join the party too. They are afraid of pirates, but The Clowns are kind pirates in their eyes.

The term of kind pirates wants to make The Clowns puke in disgust. But they know it's also because of their actions, so they need to understand it. Even so, being called as kind pirates make them sad somehow.

They sail for 4 days before they finally reach an island. It is not the destination island of the passengers. But they don't have any problem going here now. At least they can get on land and aren't stranded on the sea.

The island is big, and it is owned by a nation, Vira Country. It is a small country if compared to other big countries like Arabasta. But it's actually quite big with such a wide island.

When they get closer to the island, The Clowns leave the passengers to go to the public port by themselves. Cricket has told them the ship's basic control, so they should be able to reach the port after getting this close.

Meanwhile, The Clowns will go to a hidden coast like usual because they are pirates. The authorities will take care of those civilians, so they don't need to do anything else.

"Finally, another island," says Buggy excitedly as they get ashore.
