Chapter 291: Revelation & Plan

Chapter 291: Revelation & Plan

The Marine fleet is now standing on a very wide ice block. Aokiji has frozen the sea to stop their ship from sinking, but it also prevents them to move.

"Have you found anything?" asks Sengoku to an officer.

"Yes, we found many small holes in the hull. We suspect the hole to be made by these bullets," says the officer while showing some deformed bullets that their men have collected.

Sengoku is confused and asks, "How could these bullets hit our hull?"

"Most likely, they put the bullets inside their super cannon's bullet. So when it exploded, the bullets get shot all over the place," says the officer.

"And because it exploded underwater, the bullets hit our ships' hull," says Sengoku with widened eyes.

"Yes, that's what we have concluded," says the officer.

"Then, what if it didn't explode underwater?" asks Sengoku.

".... I'm afraid, it would destroy our ships. The explosion itself was very big and even while being slowed by water, the bullets still managed to pierce through our ships' hull. If it exploded right beside our ship, then the nearest ships would be destroyed by the explosion while the bullets will hit the remaining ships and break them too while killing the men aboard," says the officer after hesitating a bit.

*BAM*

Sengoku hits the box that is used as a table and breaks it. They were really close to losing a lot of people. He & the strong officers would survive, but the soldiers would've died.

"I suppose the cannon bullet was made by their scientist, right? It's like what I've always said, he is very dangerous since he made that super cannon. We really need to raise his bounty," says Tsuru.

"I agree with that. But the Clown Pirates are more dangerous than we thought. Their bounties aren't exaggerated," says Garp while grinning.

Sengoku & the other officers hate to admit it but Garp is correct. They need to forbid their men from getting too close to Clown Pirates. From that point on, the Marine only maintain low surveillance over The Clowns' movement and never agitate them.

The Clown Pirates, however, don't really care about what the Marine thinks. They are just chilling on their ship now. Meanwhile, Buggy is talking with Ruff in the armory about the bullet they used before.

"That bullet was good. It could take down some ships at once even when it exploded underwater. But I think the Marine will realize the mechanism and copy it," says Buggy.

"Yeah, I thought so as well. But it's not really a problem, isn't it? If it's a problem, then you won't use it to attack them," says Ruff.

Buggy smirks and says, "That's right, it's not too big of a problem for us. They might understand the concept, but making it work is another thing. That bullet will just explode inside a normal cannon because the outer layer that holds the small bullets are thin. The cannon's gunpowder will burst that layer."

Ruff continues his work with his team and Buggy goes to the main deck. The Clowns are chilling on the ship and do what they want. Some guys are sleeping, eating, drinking, sunbathing, or even training.

Buggy sees Cricket training Alan, Mantis trains Elen, Palu trains Yamato, and Enel trains Jack. The kids are very competitive with each other and try to be the best, especially Alan, Jack, & Yamato. Only Elen doesn't care about it, but she doesn't want to be left behind either.

"Jude, come here!" calls Buggy.

"Aaaye~," says Jude happily because Buggy calls her. She is still fawning over him even though he always said he can't accept her.

"What is it, Captain?" asks Jude while hugging Buggy's left arm.

"How's the progress of the new navigators we recruited for The Caribbean?" asks Buggy.

They have recruited some navigators to navigate The Caribbean's ships. Jude and her team are teaching them now. These navigators are joining them since they left to meet Whitebeard Pirates to experience real navigation in New World.

"Hmm, they are progressing well. Most of them aren't ready to navigate a ship yet, but there are 2 who are barely ready for it. The standard is being able to sail in New World, so it is very difficult even though they all have some experience," says Jude.

"Hmm, then let's train them for another month," says Buggy.

"It seems you want to go somewhere after a month, Captain," says Jude.

Buggy grins and says, "Yeah, I want to go home. We never go to East Blue as a crew, right?"
