Traveler in the Pirate World

Compared to the reactions of others, Buggy, who was somewhere in the East China Sea, was extremely strange.

Buggy, who was originally trapped on the Rare Beast Island, was rescued by Alrita who passed by. Alrita, originally a fat, freckled and ferocious woman, has now become a charming and beautiful lady after obtaining the slippery fruit.

After learning that they both had a common enemy, the two decided to join forces to fight Luffy together, of course without mentioning a word about Lilybuggy.

After the two made the decision, in order to replenish the supplies on the ship, they planned to plunder a village, and then go to Rogue Town to block Luffy's pirate group from there to the Grand Line.

However, just as Buggy kicked over a villager and was about to do something, something happened that horrified Alrita and Buggy.

After kicking down the old man who seemed to have a high status here, Buggy was about to interrogate him about the village's financial affairs with a knife. Suddenly, a loud and majestic creaking sound rang out in Buggy's mind, as if something was tilting.

Bucky couldn't help but think of the golden scale in the ancient book. A horrible chill seeped out from deep in his bones, stimulating his body like millions of steel needles, making him scream miserably.

Looking at the savior in front of him, Buggy, who thought he was going to die, gave what he thought was his last advice, shouting: "Give up revenge, Alrita! Be careful of the white-haired woman, she is... the sister of the Straw Hat Boy, this is..."

Alrita looked at Buggy in shock as he was completely frozen by the ice crystals. She saw the fear in his eyes and the pain that was still going on. He seemed to be enduring something terrifying at this moment.

Alrita, who had no idea what was going on, dragged Buggy with a rope and quickly left the village. Alrita wanted to know why Buggy became like this, what exactly happened to him, and why she should be careful of the Straw Hat Boy's sister.

About half a day later, Buggy was freed from the ice crystal. He looked at Alrita in front of him with lingering fear in his eyes.

"I didn't expect it to be like this!" Bucky remembered the name he signed at that time and the brief words about being a good person.

"Alrita, I'm sorry to tell you that I may not be able to take revenge with you, and I also don't recommend you to take revenge." Buggy looked at Alrita with a heavy face.

Alrita, who was leaning on the mast, lowered her eyes and asked, "Why?"

Bucky lowered his head, clenched his hands tightly together, and spoke in a trembling voice about his previous encounter with Lily.

"If you must seek revenge, remember not to run into that woman. If you are unlucky enough to run into her, you must run away. Although it is impossible to escape, you should always try.

Alrita, if she gives you a choice, remember not to sign your name in that book, even if the other option is death!"

Looking at Buggy's appearance, Alrita felt goosebumps all over her body. "So, you can't do bad things now?"

“Well!” Bucky’s face was filled with pain and despair. “If I do evil, what happened just now will happen to me again, and I will have to become a good person who brings happiness to others. This is what the voice in my head told me. It’s reminding me. It’s slowly tilting. Once it exceeds a certain angle, the punishment will come again.

Alrita, I don't want to be a good person! That woman tried to distort my dream of Buggy, and she was about to succeed. I never told you, but when I did evil, I felt guilty. I can't be a pirate anymore!"

Seeing Buggy's desperate face, Alrita, whose temperament had changed because of her beauty, comforted him: "But this doesn't stop you from treasure hunting, right? And your bounty is still there, so you are still a pirate in name!"

"If I can't do so many evil things, how can I be called a pirate? I am Buggy the Clown, Alrita!" Buggy jumped in anger. Am I going to become one of those idiots who are disguised as pirates but are actually chasing their dreams?

He couldn't help but think of Roger, the guy who sailed on the sea even though he was seriously ill, and Shanks, the bastard who made him eat the devil fruit, and the Straw Hat Boy who knocked him away.

What kind of pirates are those guys? In this era full of sin, being a good person is just a joke. It could kill people, okay?

At this moment, Buggy wanted to become stronger than ever before. That woman, Monkey D. Lily, just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will break free from the constraints of the contract and become the most evil pirate in history. You can't distort me, Captain Buggy.

Looking at Buggy whose expression suddenly became resolute, Alrita felt helpless. This man always thought about a lot of inexplicable things.

Then she asked herself if she really wanted to take revenge. If she might passively become like Buggy, she chose not to go. I, Alrita, don't want revenge anymore.

Watching Buggy doing push-ups like crazy, Alrita suddenly said, "Why don't we go treasure hunting together and do some insignificant good things to control your so-called contract balance. Since we can't get revenge, let's do something we like. After all, didn't we become pirates for the treasure?"

Buggy nodded with shining eyes, “You’re right, you’re really smart, Alrita, hahahaha…”

Lily, who knew nothing about this, looked at the three blood fingerprints that appeared passively behind Buggy's name on the Book of Contract in her hand and nodded with satisfaction.

Looking at the four ice sculptures in front of him, he punched a hole in the mountain and kicked them in. "Since they are from the navy, they will probably be good people who punish evil and promote good."

Lily didn't notice that when she said this, the three fingerprints on the Book of Contract flashed an inconspicuous golden light.

Putting away the Book of Contract, Lily walked slowly along the way. The celestial phenomena in the four seas were stable, not as weird and changeable as those in the Grand Line. The environment and vegetation were not much different either. However, Lily did not plan to go to the Grand Line for the time being. After all, she was a traveler, not a pirate, and she did not care about treasure.

Along the way, Lily took pictures of things she found interesting. If there was a long story, she would open a separate page for it and write beautiful words with her slender white fingers, leaving it all on paper forever except in her own memory.

After drifting on the sea for more than ten days, Lily passed through many towns and saw many uninhabited islands with beautiful scenery. She recorded it all.

At this moment, looking at the huge sea bridge in front of her, Lily's eyes were not happy, because a body had just fallen on her boat.

It was a woman wearing gray-blue clothes. Her appearance could not be seen clearly, but it could be seen that she was a slave or a prisoner.

Unlike other waters in the East China Sea, this bridge seems to be blocking the cold air and is in ice and snow all year round, with thick ice covering the entire bridge.

Lily froze the body and sank it into the sea as a simple burial. She looked up at the sea bridge that was dozens of meters high, watched the sea return to the space, and flew up. The water curtain surrounded her body, hiding Lily's figure, as if she had never existed.
