Transcended as Lord Buggy

*puru puru puru*

Buggy's denden mushi suddenly rings while he drinks a glass of iced water in front of Bani's house and looks at the tied-up pirates.

He picks up the denden mushi and says, "This is Clown Delivery, how can I help you?"

"By not saying a strange thing," says Cricket from the other end.

"It won't be a joke if it's not strange. So, why do you call me?" asks Buggy.

"We've finished the job and get a lot of money. There's even a high quantity of soil here. What should we do to them?" asks Cricket.

"Do what you like. I'm not interested in recruiting them at all. They can't be one since they killed civilians. I have my pride as a pirate who never kills innocent people and my crew members need to be like that too. So you can do what you think is right for them," says Buggy.

"Alright, I understand. Palu will be happy with this," says Cricket.

"He should be," says Buggy before closing the call.

"They've done?" asks Bani who just come out of his house.

"Yeah, they will return soon after taking care of the aftermath," says Buggy.

"No one is hurt, right?" asks Bani.

"If you ask about my crewmates, then they are fine. But if you ask about the Half-Wings, then they all are hurt," says Buggy while grinning.

"Why should I ask about those bastards? I'm just worried about my son and his friends," says Bani.

Bani sits on the chair beside Buggy and they have a conversation. It's mainly about Palu though because Bani still wants to know about his son. Buggy tells Bani what he knows because he also just met Palu a few months ago.

"Hey Bani, can you use Mantra?" asks Buggy.

"Yeah, I was a warrior in the past and Mantra is a must for warriors like me. Do you want to learn it?" asks Bani.

"No need, I can use it already. We call it Observation Haki in Blue Sea. Most of our crew can use it, but Palu still can't use it now. He has just trained for 6 months, so it's understandable. But he grows fast and excels in another type of power."

"Maybe your training method will suit him better because it must've been improved to suit your race better. He is one of our crew's pillars in battle, so he needs to be strong. Mantra is very important and he needs it. Besides, this is a good chance to make a father & son bond, right?" asks Buggy.

"Sure, I have planned to do it anyway. I also planned to teach all of you because I didn't know that you can use it already," says Bani.

"Well, you can teach Deon too. He is our newest member and never know about this power before. As for Ruff, he needs to strengthen his base power first before learning this," says Buggy.

"Alright, I will make them able to use Mantra in a month," says Bani while smiling.

"A month?! Oi, are you sure about that? This is not an easy thing to train, you know," says Buggy with a surprised tone.

"Hehe, Mantra is something that Birkan warriors trained for centuries. So our training method has been improved numerous times. Besides, I said that I will make them able to use it, not master it. Mastering Mantra will depend on what they do after awaken it," says Bani.

"But 1 month is still a short time to awaken it. Maybe Palu can do it because he knows the basic theory behind it. But Deon is still new to this," says Buggy.

"Then Palu will be able to awaken it in less than a month. If you're that curious, then just watch how I trained them. I'm sure it will be useful for your crew when you expand it," says Bani.

Buggy is very curious about it and he agrees with Bani's offer. If there's such an effective method to train Observation Haki, then he needs to know it. He can apply it to train his new members in the future if it worked.

While Bani & Buggy talk, the Clowns are deciding punishment for the Half-Wings. They don't care about what the Birkans will think about them later after what they'll do to the Half-Wings.

The Clowns take the Half-Wings to the end of the White Sea. Ruff has made a mysterious item with the others' help. Palu also has made a big bowl using the Half-Wings' ship's wood. The bowl is big enough to house all Half-Wings members in it. This item is the tool that they'll use to punish these guys.

"Hehe, tie it!" orders Cricket.

"Aye aye," replies the Clowns.

The Clowns take the mysterious item which is a big parachute. They tie the parachute to the bowl and tighten the Half-Wings' bond. Then after everything's ready, the Clowns bid farewell to the Half-Wings.

"Enjoy your ride," says Palu.

"Send my regards to Marine & Pirates down there," says Mantis.

"Don't catch a cold on your way there," says Manba.

"Hehe, you need to find a log pose first later,' says Jude.

The Clowns said all of that with mocking tones. But the Half-Wings can't even get mad because they are very afraid right now. This punishment is the worst thing for them who always live up here their whole life.

"It's time, have a nice trip, you bastards. Do it!" orders Cricket.

Palu node and he hit the giant wood bowl on a spot that has been coated with metal. The bowl moves toward the end of the White Sea slowly. Then, it finally reaches the end and the Clowns wave their hands as the bowl falls.

"ARGH! CURSE YOU CLOWN PIRATES! AAAAAA....." shouts the Half-Wings Captain that the Clowns never bothered to learn.

"AAAAAA...!" screams the Half-Wings as they fall from the White Sea to the Blue Sea below.

The parachute opens and expands to slow its fall. But it's still quite fast because of their total weight. The Half-Wings also can't do anything because they're tied up. They can only scream as they fall from 10 km above the sea.

"Will they survive?" asks Deon.

"Who knows? It's not our business anymore. We still give them a chance to survive, so that's good, right?" asks Palu.

"I guess. So, what now?" asks Deon.

"We return," says Cricket.

The Clowns return to Birka with their ship filled with treasures and soil. Although these shiny treasures won't have a high value on Birka, they will make them very rich after reaching the Blue Sea. The soil will be for Palu's parents' field that didn't have good harvests lately.

They arrived on Birka soon and dock their ship on a beach near Bani's house. Then they go to Bani's house while pulling a big sled that has 12 big crates filled with soil on it.

These crates are what they got from the Half-Wings, not the one that they brought from down there. They have another use for that soil and they can't use it without Buggy's permission.

They arrived at Bani's house in a few minutes and show the loot to Buggy, Bani, & Diane. The middle-aged couple is very surprised to see the soil. It's the most valuable item in Sky Islands, after all. Even God only has some pots of soil, but this is more than that.

"I can't believe they accumulated this much soil on their own," says Bani while touching the soil with trembling hands.

"Yeah, they worked hard for you. Now, this soil is yours. You can use it for your field," says Palu.

"What!? N-No, this is too much," says Diane.

"Too much? Does a son's gift for his parents ever be too much?" asks Palu.

"N-No, I-I mean," says Diane panicky.

"Just take it. I don't need this much soil in my ship," says Buggy.

Bani & Diane look at each other before finally agreeing to take the soil. They want to celebrate their success now, but then someone troublesome appears.

"What do you want now, Enel?" asks Buggy as Enel walks to them.

Enel stops and points at Cricket before saying, "Let me fight that diamond head."
