Chapter 420: Ship Making

Chapter 420: Ship Making

Buggy slammed the Celestial Dragon very hard that her skull cracked. It's not too strong to kill her though, she just faints from the incredible pain. Buggy doesn't even feel sorry, he just realizes that he overdid it, and now he needs to deal with the Admirals.

"Sigh, whatever, let's just leave this place," says Buggy before picking up the little girl and her dad.

He leaves the place fast with them on his shoulders and runs to a Groove where some pirate ships are docked. But before they arrive, Buggy puts the 2 down and checks the dad's condition after being shot.

He instantly closes his eyes and sighs when he checks the man because the man has died. The shot pierced his heart, killing him instantly. So he looks at the little girl who looks very sad now. She knows that her father has died even before Buggy checked him.

"What's your name, darling?" asks Buggy while rubbing her purple hair slowly.

"Alice," says the little girl without looking at Buggy and only focusing on her father.

"How old are you, Alice?" asks Buggy.

"Alice is 8 years old now," says Alice.

"Alright, Alice, you know what happened to him, right?" asks Buggy.

"Yes, my daddy has left the world like my mommy. Now Alice is alone. It's Alice's fault that daddy died," says Alice while crying.

Buggy hugs her and pats her back, "You're right, he has left the world, but you are not alone. I will be with you from now on, so don't worry. Uncle will take care of you."

"B-but I don't know you, and what if you also left the world like mommy and daddy? People said Alice is a bringer of misfortune because mommy died after giving birth to Alice. Now daddy died because he protected Alice. What if uncle also died because of Alice?" asks Alice while crying louder.

"The bringer of misfortune? Well, you don't need to worry about that. Uncle likes to fight against misfortunes and has won many times. So don't worry about it," says Buggy.

Buggy suddenly feels a powerful presence coming to the island. An Admiral has come, so they need to leave soon. Buggy immediately makes a square hole in the Magroove's root and puts Alice's dad's body inside before he closes it.

"Remember that number well, Alice. You can visit this place when you want to see your father. Now he lives inside this giant tree with the number 18 on it. You need to get stronger so that you can come here anytime you want," says Buggy while holding Alice's hand.

Alice just nods, but she doesn't really understand what he means. Buggy then picks her up and leaves the place because the Admiral is almost here. He doesn't mind fighting against an Admiral, but it will be too dangerous for Alice. Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.

They go to the outer Groove and Buggy steals a pirate ship. There are still many pirates on the ship, but he scares the shit out of them using his Conqueror Haki. Then he forces them to control the ship to leave Sabaody.

The pirates do as he says and they leave the Archipelago quite fast. Buggy then kicks the pirates out of their own ship, so now it's just him & Alice there. He tells Alice to stay inside the Captain's room because they will go through a very dangerous zone to avoid the Admiral's chase.

Usually, a small ship like the one that Buggy ordered would be transferred to Franky Family. But it was built by Galley-La because of its complicated design. Iceburg even needed to supervise this project himself, and he also needed Franky's help.

"You are here," says Iceburg who decides to meet Buggy himself along with Franky.

They don't recognize Buggy at all because of his new appearance.

"We tried to make it as best as we can, but I don't know if it will satisfy you. At least we know the installation will work. Sigh, luckily we've dealt with a similar mechanism, so we could make it well," says Iceburg.

The mechanism that he means is just Dials engine. The ship they made doesn't have any sail because it's a rather big speedboat. It is just using some Jet and Breath Dials to push it, similar to one of Blackpearl's mechanisms.

"Don't worry, I just need this thing to work as a ship. What about the kitchen & other facilities though?" asks Buggy.

"Everything is working well, so don't worry. I built them myself, after all," says Franky smugly.

"Alright then, I will note what you said," says Buggy while grinning sinisterly.

His sinister smile makes him look like a different person because Kuroko's face doesn't look intimidating at all. It makes Iceburg and Franky shiver. They really hope the ship will be fine for a long time or they might lose their heads.

"Alright, let's leave this place, Alice," says Buggy while throwing a gold bar at Iceburg to complete the payment.

Then he and Alice get on their new speedboat before leaving Water 7. Buggy is excited to enjoy his new journey, or should he say holidays. While taking care of a kid, of course.
