Chapter 378: Chasing Shiki

Chapter 378: Chasing Shiki

Kuina's training goes smoothly and she learns quite fast. Her talent is good, to begin with, and Buggy's training method is top-tier. Even Mihawk was impressed when Buggy discussed his training method after their last duel a few months ago.

Mihawk is still better than Buggy in pure swordsmanship skills. But their gap isn't that far apart and Buggy's battle skills are better than Mihawk's. That's why they still can't get any clear results after competing for years.

Though, both of them know that if they go all out and use all their power in their duels, then Buggy will win quite easily. His awakened devil fruit ability is a very unfair cheat that even makes Whitebeard reluctant to fight Buggy.

Buggy has asked Whitebeard for a duel numerous times. But the old man never accepted because there's no benefit in fighting Buggy. And Buggy never forced Whitebeard to fight him because he was still focused on exploring New World. nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.

But Buggy still wants to fight Whitebeard while the old man is still healthy. So he plans to force Whitebeard into a duel in 1 or 2 years before it's too late. Fighting the sick Whitebeard is not something he will enjoy.

For now, his target is Shiki, and he will search for that guy soon because his New World exploration will finish soon. Shiki is planning to attack East Blue, the place where his family lives. Protecting his family is Buggy's priority, so he needs to destroy Shiki.

He plans to find Shiki after exploring New World, but something can always happen. 3 months after he started training Kuina, Deon calls him to give a piece of interesting information that makes Buggy calls all his crewmates who are playing around on East Blue.

"You've found Shiki's location?" asks Buggy after hearing Deon's report.

<Most probably. His piece of Vivre card that I stole from Wang Zhi was reacting just now,> says Deon through the Denden Mushi.

"Where are you now?" asks Buggy.

<Tequila Wolf, I was looking around this ridiculous place when Dory suddenly called me. When I returned to the ship we use, I saw Shiki's vivre card move strangely until now. It is moving up when I tilt the glass container a little and I can only think of one possibility,> says Deon.

"Shiki is in the sky above Tequila Wolf," says Buggy seriously.

<Yeah, that's the only possibility,> says Deon.

"Alright, I'll call the Revolutionary Army while you call the East Blue's Caribbean and our crewmates. This is our chance to strike him while he is this close," says Buggy.

<Revolutionary Army?> asks Deon confusedly.

"Yeah, I'll tell them that East Blue's Caribbean branch will help them save the slaves on Tequila Wolf. We need to take them out of there fast because if Shiki is really above Tequila Wolf, then it will be very dangerous for those people. I'm sure Shiki is controlling a few floating islands using his devil fruit ability now," says Buggy.

Deon gets surprised and says, <Holy shit, those islands will fall when Shiki gets defeated. We really need to move fast, man. Can I also ask Bon and your friends?>

"Yeah, get any help we can. Islands falling from the sky are very dangerous. It can even cause a tsunami, so we need to think of people's safety. Make sure we have people on every island to watch for the possible tsunami," says Buggy.

Jude navigates the ship following Shiki's vivre card. They fly above the cloud because Shiki's floating islands must be hidden above the cloud or they would see it from the sea. The Clown Pirates fly at moderate speed to make sure they don't miss anything.

After a few hours, Enel suddenly notifies the crew that he hears a lot of human voices in front of them. He says the voices are hidden behind the massive cloud that looks like a mountain in the sea of clouds. So they go even higher to fly above the massive cloud.

When they get above the cloud, they can finally see their targets. They see some massive floating islands which make most of them speechless. Now they can finally understand why Shiki was one of the best pirates in the past because not anyone can utilize the Float Float Devil Fruit to such an extent.

Buggy grins widely and asks, "Jude, can you calculate our position on East Blue?"

"Yes, we are still above Tequila Wolf. So if Shiki doesn't move the islands, they will drop on the bridge," says Jude while looking at the East Blue map.

"Alright, Deon, call Dragon and tell him to move fast. The Caribbean's East Blue branch has started its attack last night, so it shouldn't take too long to finish. Tell him I will beat him up myself if he can't finish it in an hour," says Buggy.

"C-can't you tell him yourself?" asks Deon nervously.

Buggy just raises an eyebrow and Deon runs away immediately to make the call. He really doesn't want to send a threatening message to Dragon because he knows well how strong Dragon is. Deon is the one who gets all information, after all, including the information about Dragon.

But he also doesn't dare to go against Buggy's order. If he needs to piss one between those 2 monsters, then he prefers angering Dragon. Not only he the chance of meeting Dragon is very low compared to Buggy, but he also thinks that even Dragon is weaker than Buggy.

After Deon leaves, Buggy looks at the floating islands and smirks. "Golden Lion, I hope you still have some fangs & claws left or this will be boring."
