Chapter 151: Adam Wood

Chapter 151: Adam Wood

The next day after they held a party, the Clown explore the island again. It will take a week for the log pose to be set, so they need to enjoy their time. Manba guards the ship today, so Enel can explore the island too.

The Clowns are very famous, or rather, infamous here. People have recognized them now and feared them because of their bounties. Such bounties are very high for pirates in Paradise.

Even pirates with bounties close to 100 million are considered to be very dangerous, not to mention them who have a Captian with 500 million on his head. The people here have never seen someone with such a bounty before, so they're very afraid of Buggy now.

But some people are seeing this as a chance. Those people are bounty hunters and other pirates. They have different purposes, but they know they can achieve those by defeating the Clowns.

The bounty hunters here are far stronger than the previous island as the pirates who reached this place are also strong. So they're confident they can defeat Buggy who they also know to have defeated Kizaru.

As for the pirates, they wanted to raise their names by defeating the Clowns. They can also get the Clowns' treasures if they can defeat Buggy & co. A crew with such high bounties must have a lot of treasures.

That's why they target & attack the Clowns who move separately. Luckily, Buggy has anticipated this and made the weaker members move with the stronger ones. It's just Ruff though because the others can protect themselves.

Their days start to become busy since pirates & bounty hunters started to attack them. On one side, it's a good exercise, but on another side, it's disturbing. The pirates & bounty hunters are persistent even though the Clowns have defeated a lot of them.

Buggy allowed his crew to kill these bounty hunters & pirates. But everyone knows that just because they're allowed, doesn't mean they are ordered. They aren't fans of killing people if it's not needed, so they just beat the enemies up very badly.

Those guys don't just target them, but also their ship because they want to rob it. Buggy even needs to put 2 people as ship guards every day to protect the ship. Their treasures are important because they need to make a new ship.

Speaking of ship, on the 4th day of their stay, the Clowns get a piece of good news. An Adam Wood will be auctioned on this island in 5 days. That means 9 days since they arrived here.

Their log pose is set in a week, so there are 2 days more to stay. But that's not a problem because Adam Wood is more important than some stupid people's disturbance. Those bounty hunters & pirates are just free training partners for the Clowns.

This Wood is also big, and Palu said it's enough to make their new ship, so they can't miss it. It might not appear again soon and they might need to wait for months. Adam Wood with a big size like this is rare, after all. Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.

They wait for the 9th day to come while keep being attacked by the bounty hunters & pirates. Then on the 6th day, Buggy starts to use the enemies to train Ruff. They are strong opponents for Ruff, so it's perfect for his training.

It's also a perfect chance for Ruff to test his weapons. He has made some new weapons and upgraded the old ones. They're still strange though, like a slippery pistol, corrosive ball, dizzy gas ball, 20 sections staff, and even cockroaches ball like Usopp's.

They have more than 1.5 billion in their pocket, so they're sure they can get this. Buggy has saved a lot of money for this. His 2 years of bounty hunting still made up most of his crew's wealth now.

The host starts the auction and opens the price at 300 million Belly. It's already higher than the price that Franky gets for Thousand Sunny. Well, it's normal considering the size of this wood. It can be used to make 3 or 4 ships the size of Thousand Sunny, after all.

Many people start to bid, but the Clowns just stay silent and wait for the bidding war to slow down. It starts to get slower at 500 million because it's a lot of money and not everyone here has it. But some people are still bidding and finally, it almost finished at 612 million.

"613 million," says Buggy.

The one who almost wins gets angry and raises the price to 620 million. Buggy raises it again to 621 million because the minimum raise is 1 million. The man raises it again to 630 million and Buggy raises it to 631 million, the wood is still worth that much money.

The man gives up after that, but then someone suddenly raises it to 650 million. Buggy looks at the man who makes that bid and smirks. It is someone from the Auction House who tries to raise the price.

Buggy decides to not bid anymore and the host is sweating nervously. The host tries to slow the countdown but still needs to finish it at 650 million with the man from this Auction house as the winner. But in the end, they sold it to Buggy at 631 million because they can't buy their own product.

"Heh, you can't play such a trick on this Lord Buggy," says Buggy after he paid the wood.
