Chapter 332: The Woods

Chapter 332: The Woods

Clown Pirates' new lives on the crazy island have finally started now. They all are wearing clothes that look like astronaut suits. Ruff designed it because it is the suit that can protect them in any weather.

There are 3 dials inside each of the suits. Breath dial that provides air, heat dial for cold weather, and cool dial for hot weather. With these 3 dials, they all will be comfortable in those stuffy suits in all conditions.

But there weren't enough dials for 107 people. They didn't buy that many of those dials on Sky Islands and it has been a few years since they visited any Sky Island. So there are many dials that get broken after being used for a long time.

But dials are never a problem for them now because Ruff has found a way to create dials from normal sea seashells. He needed a long time to get a result because the seashells on Sky Islands are different from the ones here.

Anyway, the Clown Pirates explore the island after wearing suits. They split into 11 groups made of around 10 people for 10 groups and 7 for a group. Each group is led by an executive so they will be safer & more organized.

The 7 people group is led by Buggy, and Dela is in the group too. The other 5 are the 4 kids and a girl from the medical team that isn't as strong as the other adults. Buggy takes the weakest members with him because it will be easier to protect them himself.

"Alan, Elen, Yamato, Jack, don't move on your own and stick to the group. I will hang you upside down for a week if you disobey," says Buggy while walking.

"Don't worry, Lord, I will keep an eye on them," says Alan smugly.

"Why are you the one doing it? I can do it too," protests Yamato.

"Well, because I'm the strongest?" asks Alan as if it's so obvious.

"Strongest? Do you want to prove it now? I will beat you up," says Yamato pissedly.

"Hoo, that's a good idea," says Alan.

Both of them want to start fighting in their astronaut suits. But then a shadow looms over them and they look at the source. They gulp their saliva when they see Dela's stoic expression as she looks intensely at them.

"W-Well, the Lord is the team leader, so he is the only one who can command us. Let's do as he says shall we?" asks Alan nervously.

"Ye-yeah, I think so too," says Yamato.

Both of them then walk away following Buggy while whistling innocently. Elen & the nurse sweatdrop at them while Jack doesn't really care about their antiques. The group then walks into the forest in the direction that has been decided.

They finally reach the forest and the trees here are a lot taller than they thought. It might be 3 times the height of a giant like Magnus. The trees are wide too, around 5-8 meters in diameter, it's similar to what they saw on Skypiea.

"Wow, how old are these trees?" asks Yamato.

*BAM*

Just as they expected, Buggy punches the tree too. He doesn't use his haki nor devil fruit abilities though, it's just a pure physical punch. His punch is still very strong though and it shakes the entire area, many leaves & dead branches even fall because of that.

Everyone widens their eyes though because even Buggy's punch can't break the tree completely. He succeeds to make deep damage, but it doesn't pierce through the tree. His punch only breaks 4 meters of this 6 meters tree's wood.

"Damn, this tree is tough. I've used all my physical strength into that punch and I could only make it this far. It doesn't even fall even though it only has a third of its base left," says Buggy with a very impressed tone.

"What do you think about this wood?" asks Dela.

"It isn't as hard & tough as Adam wood, but it's certainly harder than any other wood that I've ever seen. Palu might've found this out too, so he will know what to do. Maybe we can finally start that project, the project that will make Black Pearl an ultimate ship," says Buggy while grinning widely.

On another location, Palu also grins as wide as Buggy. As a shipwright, the first thing he does is, of course, check the trees for their woods. He found out the trees' hardness before Buggy does and has thought about many things because of that.

Everyone in his group including him has tried hitting a tree with all they have. Even so, they only manage to break a total of 3 meters deep of the wood. The tree they hit is around the same size as the one Buggy hit, so it really shows just how tough the wood is.

"The Lord will be pleased by this. Who would've thought that we would find a type of wood that is close to Adam's level? And maybe this whole forest is full of the same trees. Even with this island's weather, I am still surprised that no one actually harvests & uses or sells these woods," says Palu.

Buggy also thinks the same, but it doesn't matter to him. If no one wants this island, then he will take it and use the wood for himself. Ships are sailors' lives, after all, so making ships from good woods is never bad.

Buggy grins as he ponders, "6 months? That's really not a bad thing now."
