Transcended as Lord Buggy

The Clown Pirates set their ship's course to the nearest island on the map. They sail for one day and finally reach the island. It's a small uninhabited island that has been drawn on the map.

The Clowns explore the island to find interesting things. They explore the island for 6 hours and found nothing except plants, animals & a lake.

They took the fruits & leaves from the plants & hunt the animals for their supplies. They also took the freshwater from the lake. Free supplies are always welcomed by any crew.

The Clown Pirates stay on the island for a night. They have some small talks while gathering around the campfire. Buggy sees Jude is looking over the map and he remember something.

"Jude, how many days will it take for us to reach Baterilla?" asks Buggy.

"Baterilla? Hmm, judging from the distance between this island and Baterilla, it will take around 3 days. Do you want to go there, Captain?" asks Jude.

"Yeah, I want to check something there. Set the next destination to Baterilla," says Buggy.

"I understand," says Jude.

Buggy wants to check if Ace has been born or not. He has forgotten a lot of things that he knew about One Piece World. However, he still remembers that Ace was 20 y.o when he died in the Summit war.

This is 20 years before the canon starts. So Ace will be born around this time. He might be born already or almost born. Buggy doesn't know it, so he needs to make sure. He has a doctor now, so if Rouge hasn't given birth, he will try to save her.

(a.n: f*ck original timeline, lol. I'll just do what I want ~(≧▽≦)/~)

"Manba, can you do a Caesarian Section?" asks Buggy.

"I can. We used it sometimes when a woman couldn't deliver her baby normally. Why'd you ask?" asks Manba.

"I might need your help for that if it's not too late," says Buggy.

Manba nods and says he will prepare everything for the procedure. Manba asks Buggy about the details like the mother's condition. So Buggy tells him what he knows about Rouge's condition.

Everyone get surprised when they hear what Rouge did to save her baby. But they're also angry at the Marine & WG for targetting a baby just because he is Roger's son.

"I don't know what technique that she used to hold her pregnancy like that. But I know that it's dangerous and can kill her. I also predict that she used her life force to do it. If that's the case, then it will be very hard to save her," says Manba.

"It's okay. At the very least, I want you to check it. I won't force you to save her if you can't," says Buggy.

Buggy doesn't have much hope too for Manba to be able to save Rouge. Her condition isn't something that can be solved easily. But Buggy wants to assure it by asking Manba to check on her. He wants to do what he can to help Rouge.

'I will do what I can to save her, Captain. I don't want to have any regret because I don't do anything. I hope it's not too late yet,' thinks Buggy.

The Clown Pirates rest after that and they sail in the morning. They go to Baterilla and Jude tries to get the ship to move as fast as possible. Manba also prepares everything that he might need to help Rouge.

It takes them 2 days to reach Baterilla, 1 day faster than Jude's prediction. The wind, weather & current are very friendly to them in these 2 days. So they can move faster than predicted.

The Clown Pirates almost reach the island, but they see some Marine ships are there. Buggy gets excited when he sees the Marine ships. It means that they still search for Rouge, so Rouge won't give birth yet.

But it also makes him worried if Rouge holds her pregnancy longer than the original story. It will get dangerous if she holds her pregnancy longer. That's why Buggy needs to do something and get the Marines to leave Baterilla fast.

"Manba, you will go alone to Baterilla. You haven't been known by the world as my crewmate, so the Marines won't recognize you. Search for a woman named Portgas D. Rouge and contact me if needed. We will distract the Marine and make them leave the island. If she's still alive and pregnant, then help her to deliver her baby soon," Buggy instructs Manba.

"Alright," says Manba without hesitation.

Buggy orders Cricket & Mantis to prepare Manba's boat & supplies. Then Buggy gives Manba a denden mushi so he can call them anytime. Buggy instructs Jude to make a route plan to keep the Marine busy.

"Manba, even if the Marines chase us, you will still need to be careful. There might be some spies left on the island that will watch your movements," says Buggy.

"Alright, I will be careful," says Manba.

They move fast and then send Manba alone on a boat. Jude has told Manba the route to the island that won't make him get detected by Marines. Then the Clowns move in a different direction and get close to the Marine ship.

The Marines notice them and get into a dilemma whether to continue their mission or to chase the Clown Pirates. They contact the Marine HQ and finally receive an order to chase the Clown Pirates.

The HQ has found out that Buggy was Roger's apprentice together with Shanks. So currently, Buggy & Shanks are a bigger threat than a baby that hasn't been born yet. They also didn't find anything in these 2 years, so it's better to chase Buggy that they have known as Roger's apprentice.

This Marine Unit came from Marineford, so they're strong. They sent a unit from HQ because their target was Roger's family. So there might be strong guardians here and normal Marines from South Blue won't be able to face them.

That's why now the HQ doesn't hesitate to send them to chase Buggy. There are many pirates with bounties of 100 million belly or more in Grandline. So they won't be afraid of the Clown Pirates like South Blue's Marine Unit.

Seeing the Marines move to chase them, Buggy orders his crew to escape. The Marines chase them and the Clown Pirates lead them away from the island. Now they just need to keep moving until Manba contacts them.

~Marine HQ, Marineford~

Admiral Sengoku received the report about Buggy that reach Baterilla. He immediately gets serious and asks for the details. He won't take Roger's apprentice lightly, even more so when Buggy has made a name for himself and get a bounty of 100 million belly before even reaching Grandline.

"Is it a coincidence that he comes to Baterilla all of a sudden?" asks Sengoku to the Rear-Admiral that gave the report.

"We don't know about it. But from his movement pattern, it seems to be a coincidence. He was first seen in East Blue at Roger's execution, then in North Blue when he got his first bounty. Then he crossed Grandline and arrived in West Blue and now he is in South Blue," says the Rear Admiral.

"So he moves around the blues first before sailing on Grandline?" asks Sengoku.

"It seems to be the case. In North Blue, he visit every island, and almost did the same in West Blue. If it's not for Happo Navy's disturbance, then he would do the same," says the Rear Admiral.

"So it means he wants to explore all islands in South Blue and coincidentally arrived on Baterilla?" asks Sengoku again.

"Yes, if he wants to go there, he will do it before he made his name to avoid detection," says the Rear Admiral.

"Hmm, that makes sense. We also didn't find any trace of Roger Pirates there. So it seems the island is clean," says Sengoku.

"Yes, I don't think that Roger is stupid enough to leave his lover on that island because it will be too obvious," says the Rear Admiral.

"You're right. Alright, prepare a unit led by a Vice-Admiral to South Blue. If that Red Nose brat is as strong as Red Hair, then Rear Admiral won't be enough. Order the Marine unit that chases them to keep a distance and just monitor them until reinforcement comes," instruct Sengoku.

"Which Vice-Admiral that we will send?" asks the Rear Admiral.

"Send Borsalino," says Sengoku.

"No need, I will go there," says Garp who suddenly enters the room. "Hehe, a brat from Roger's crew, it will be interesting."
