Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

However, Buggy was an extremely intelligent person, and he instantly understood what Shiraishi Osamu was thinking.

Chapter 0340: Initial Setbacks

"In that case, Captain, I'll go prepare some things first!"

After saying that, Buggy took out some small things that Shiraishi Xiu couldn't figure out what they were.

Shanks shook his head helplessly. Bucky really does like to tinker with these little gadgets that nobody knows what they're for.

However, Shiraishi Osamu did not ask Buggy what these things were.

He knew that if Bucky was going to bring it along, it must be useful for their trip.

Otherwise, given Bucky's intelligence, he would never have brought along those useless junk items.

"Well, now that we're ready, let's hit the road!"

The islands that the three of them were going to were not far from Fishman Island, so they did not choose the large ship they had been using.

A small boat, more like a speedboat, carrying a few people, sailed out of the port.

This would greatly speed up their search for suitable islands for growing fruit.

The three of them leaving Fishman Island this time did not cause any unnecessary disturbance among their subordinates.

In fact, apart from Beckman, no one knew that they had left Fishman Island.

Shiraishi Osamu knew that although Crocodile seemed calm, he definitely still harbored the intention to escape.

If he knew that I wasn't on Fishman Island at this time, wouldn't that allow him to succeed?

Although he is no match for Beckman, for someone of Crocodile's strength, escaping from Beckman wouldn't be too difficult.

So one of the reasons why Shiraishi Osamu didn't reveal his itinerary was because of Crocodile.

He wanted to slowly win Crocodile's heart and make him completely loyal to him, just like Shanks did.

In that case, Crocodile definitely cannot be allowed to leave Fishman Island.

Of course, before setting off, Shiraishi Osamu deliberately sought out Beckman and spoke to him about Crocodile in advance.

To ensure nothing unexpected happened, he and Bucky embarked on a journey to find a suitable island.

On the ship, Shiraishi Xiuzheng stood on the small deck, hands behind his back, looking ahead.

"Bucky Shanks, do you know of any islands near Kagaki Island that are suitable for farming?"

Shiraishi Xiu asked indifferently without turning his head.

However, neither of them answered Shiraishi Shu, because they were not very familiar with Fishman Island either.

After all, the relationship between Fishman Island and humans is extremely hostile, so Buggy and Shanks rarely visit Fishman Island when they are out on the move.

Since he didn't get the answer he wanted, Shiraishi Osamu stopped talking.

Let's first explore the surrounding islands; we're bound to find something suitable.

There are actually many different islands around Fishman Island, but it's not easy to find one with a suitable climate for fruit growth.

Because the islands were not far apart, the three of them saw a small island after sailing at sea for less than an hour.

Now that they've spotted the island, they'll definitely go and investigate it.

However, they only stayed on the island for a short time before leaving.

After observing the island, Shiraishi Osamu discovered that it was too cold and unsuitable for growing fruit.

Chapter 0341: The Pirate Crew

"Captain, I do know of an island nearby that perfectly matches your ideal, but it seems to be Big Mom's territory!"

Bucky seemed to suddenly remember something and exclaimed in realization.

"Then let's go take a look right away!"

But Buggy did seem a little hesitant at this moment, standing still, unsure whether to take Shiraishi with him or not.

Now that he had already said what he was going to say, he was going to go without the captain.

Will they be punished by the captain? And judging from the captain's expression, he doesn't seem very happy.

It would be extremely irrational to provoke Big Mom at this time.

Despite their large numbers, their top-tier combat strength is far fewer than that of BigMom's team.

The reason Big Mom didn't dare to attack their pirate ship was simply because of Osamu Shiraishi's presence.

"What are you doing, Bucky?! Lead the way!"

Shiraishi Xiu spoke again, giving orders to Baki.

His tone was somewhat impatient. Since Bucky had already spoken, why was he still standing there without making any move?

Buggy sensed the anger in Shiraishi Osamu's tone and could only awkwardly explain:

"Captain, you don't know, Fishman Island was originally Big Mom's territory. Since you took over Fishman Island, a lot of unfavorable information about us has been circulating along the Grand Line."

"It might not be a very wise thing to provoke Big Mom at this time. I hope you can reconsider!"

Only then did Shiraishi Osamu let Buggy go, and he stayed where he was to think.

As a former Marine Admiral, Shiraishi Osamu was well aware that Fishman Island belonged to Big Mom before he arrived.

Should we give up our idea of ​​creating a fruit island just because of this?

No, even if it's BigMom, would he dare to attack me at this time?

The fact that Fishman Island, which stole him, didn't react at all is enough to show that he is very afraid of him. If that's the case, why not go to the island that Bucky mentioned?

Moreover, Fishman Island was previously considered an affiliated island of the Big Mom Pirates, not entirely their territory.

Now that Fishman Island is under the control of his pirate crew, what's wrong with Shiraishi Shu going to one of his affiliated islands?

"Bucky, have you forgotten that Fishman Island is now under our control? Aren't we going to our own island?"

"And even if BigMom wanted to come and attack us, why didn't he come sooner? Do you think he could have done it?" Bucky knew that Shiraishi was referring to the fact that he had included Fishman Island within his own territory.

However, Bucky has figured out the cause and effect of the matter. The captain is not wrong. So why should he be afraid of Big Mom's revenge?

So Buggy took Shanks and Shiraishi directly to the island he knew about.

Bucky had no idea that there was someone on the island he absolutely did not want to mess with—Big Mom's eldest son, Perospero.

I thought we were about to achieve our goal for this trip.

"Captain, in that case, you should go back to your cabin and rest. I'll call you when we get to the island!"

Bucky couldn't help but feel a little smug, but fortunately, Shiraishi Osamu was with him, so even when they encountered Perospero, they were able to easily defeat him.

Chapter 0342: Celebrities

However, Shiraishi Osamu did not go to rest as Buggy had suggested; he was extremely concerned about the site selection.

Moreover, it doesn't seem like it will take long to get to that island, so if I go to rest, it's still a question whether Bucky and Shanks will wake me up.

"Let's just set sail, Pakistan, it's not far!"

Since Shiraishi Shu didn't need any rest, Buggy "823" no longer insisted.

Just as Shiraishi Osamu had expected, the three of them chatted for a while and then arrived at the island that Buggy had mentioned.

Because this ship is not very large, and it uses a more powerful engine.

Therefore, they sailed at a speed more than twice as fast as the usual large ships.

"Let's dock the boat at the shore and go check if this island is really suitable. If it is, we'll save a lot of time!"

Then the three of them, led by Shiraishi Osamu, set foot on this seemingly very cozy little island.

Moreover, as soon as he arrived on the island, Shiraishi Xiu felt that the climate here was completely different from the islands he had visited before.

It seems that, just as Buggy said, this place is indeed his future fruit base.

After the three of them conducted extensive research, Shiraishi Osamu decided to use the island as a future source of fruit supplies.

"After you go back this time, Bucky, bring some of your crew here and have them grow a large quantity of commonly consumed fruits!"

Before Shiraishi Osamu could finish speaking, a guy wearing a top hat appeared in front of him.

And his hat was really strange; it had lots of lollipops on it.

Upon seeing this person, Buggy instantly sensed something was terribly wrong. Wasn't this person dressed exactly like the officers of the Big Mom Pirates?

Although Baki did not recognize the man who had suddenly appeared, he could roughly identify him from his clothing as Perospero, one of the 34 ministers.

The sound came from beside Shiraishi Xiu, who said:

"That captain must be Bigmom's eldest son, Perospero. I wonder why he's here. Shouldn't he be dealing with his candy?"

After hearing Buggy's introduction, Shiraishi Xiu turned his gaze to the strange fellow who had suddenly appeared. This guy was slender, and his nose was unusually long.

Before Shiraishi Osamu could emerge from his own thoughts, he heard Buggy say:

"Why isn't this guy staying on his candy island? What's he doing here?!"

But his words were interrupted by Perospero, who suddenly appeared and pointed his candy cane at Shiraishi Shudo:

"Who are you people? I just heard you say you wanted to build a fruit farm on my island. Don't you know I'm the owner of this island? How dare you try to take over my territory?"

"Especially you, you don't even know your own worth, yet you dare to try and take advantage of me!"

Perospero said all these words to Shiraishi Osamu, and it could be said that he was now humiliating Shiraishi Osamu in every way possible.

But Bucky wasn't worried about himself at all. Instead, he was worried about Perospero on the other side. As the eldest son of BigBang, didn't he know who Shiraishi Osamu was? How dare he speak so arrogantly to Captain Shiraishi Osamu? If the captain made a move later, he probably wouldn't survive.

Chapter 0343: Strange Fruit

Perospero's mockery of Shiraishi Osamu continued for a long time without stopping.

Shiraishi Osamu was utterly speechless and helpless at the strange-looking guy, so he stepped back and said to Buggy and Shanks:

"Shanks and Buggy, you two go and kick this guy off this island. This island belongs to our pirate crew now, and has nothing to do with him."

After receiving Shiraishi's order, Buggy and Shanks charged towards Perospero from the left and right respectively.

Not only Shiraishi Osamu, but both of them were furious at Perospero's mockery.
