Chapter 429: Fast Forward

Buggy leaves the mess he made in the town and goes to the hideout. No one dares to stop him after seeing him come out of a deep hole he made after falling. They know he must've fallen from a very high place to make such a hole, and he must've been very strong to survive that.

Alice has been waiting for his return, so she is very happy when he appears. He has replaced her dad already, so now he is can be said to be Alice's stepdad even though it's not official yet. Well, Buggy doesn't mind having one more child and he's sure Bellemere will be even happier to have more.

Buggy asks his men if there was something important happening when he left. But there's nothing that really requires his attention. The only thing that might take his interest is the new Blackbeard Pirates. They've left Jaya after failing to catch the Straw Hats.

"Sigh, I've warned that old man about Teach a few times but he never listened. Well, whatever, I will take care of him myself now that he has left Whitebeard Pirates. I'll see how great the fruit that made Teach scheme to get it his whole life."

Buggy is grinning excitedly because he might get a good fight after a very long time. He needs to wait though because he has promised Alice they will play around for a while after he returned. They leave Jaya the next day and go to Alabasta because Alice wants to see a desert.

While exploring places, Buggy keeps tabs on the news of his crew, Straw Hats, and Blackbeard Pirates. He won't actually do anything about them for a while, but he still needs to know what they do. Right now, he just wants to be an observer.

The Straw Hats appear in Grandline again before Buggy reaches Alabasta. They fought against Foxy and win easily with Leo being there making strategies. He knows quite well about Davy Back Fight, after all, and knows their opponents won't play fairly because they are pirates.

Leo also contributes a lot in their fight against Aokiji who appears just like in the series. He is the only one in the crew who can actually fight Aokiji. His fire ability is counter to Aokiji's ice ability. But their skills and power are too far apart, so obviously Leo got defeated.

He can buy time for his crewmates to escape first though before he also runs away. Leo's fire has gotten hotter, so Aokiji's ice can't freeze him because it always melts. Still, Leo gets quite a lot of damage, so he gives up after his crewmates escaped, and he escapes too.

His battle against Aokiji makes him even more frustrated. He keeps getting defeated nowadays and he's afraid he might die even before he can reach his dad. So now, Leo is trying to find a way to get much stronger. He needs to get much stronger to make sure he & his sister survive this deadly sea.

This is exactly what Buggy tried to tell Leo by defeating him & his whole crew easily. They need to know they are still nothing in this sea and can die anytime. Buggy only wanted to tell Leo, he doesn't care what the other Straw Hats think because he only needs Leo to be stronger which will also ensure Nami's safety.

After getting defeated on Skypiea, Leo becomes much more serious in his training. He gets even more serious after getting defeated by Aokiji. Since then, Leo becomes the most hard-working member of Straw Hat Pirates.

Even with all his training, Leo still has time to play with the others and play music. Buggy always taught him that resting is very important for one's growth. Leo's way to rest both his mind and body is by playing music and sleeping, so he does those.

Buggy keeps observing the Straw Hats' movements while he explores Paradise with Alice. He takes Alice to visit a few places where he also has businesses there. So it's not just a trip, Buggy also works while staying in disguise.

His infamy as Kuroko rises in this journey because he defeats a lot of names that disturb him. He even defeated a Vice-Admiral who tried to capture him under a Celestial Dragon's order. It was Onigumo who got beaten up very badly by Buggy after using Alice as a hostage to capture him.

Merry gets burnt, they meet Garp on Water 7, and Luffy's father gets revealed. There is a difference though, Buggy's real identity is also revealed by Garp there. It was very strange already that they never found out about Buggy's real identity so far, so this is a good reveal.

Well, Leo & Nami never talked openly about their dad and Buggy hasn't appeared in the news for a while. Robin knew well about Buggy, but Leo & Nami never told her their dad's name. After Garp told Luffy about Dragon, Leo asked him if he knows about Buggy, and his reaction was great.

Garp was very surprised to know that Leo is Buggy's son. He didn't do anything though and just explained Buggy's identity to them. They were very surprised when Garp told them that Buggy is the strongest individual alive and the closest man to One Piece.

They got even more surprised when they know Garp was defeated by Buggy after Luffy asked about it. Robin also told them that he defeated the Marine's greatest forces at once by himself. This is a feat that even Roger couldn't do.

Now Leo finally understands that his goal might be the craziest among all Straw Hats. After all, Garp said that Buggy could've found One Piece if he wants. But he isn't interested in it, that's why that treasure is still available.

"Strongest individual, huh? As I thought of my dad."

Leo gets excited instead of getting discouraged by his dad's achievement. He is really Buggy's son.
