Chapter 53: Kano Country

Clown Pirates arrive in Kano Country after 2 days. They don't need to dock their ship on the hidden coast. They can just use the normal port here. Well, not really normal, but a special port for pirates.

There are many pirate ships on the coast. It is because the Country itself is governed by a pirate crew. So pirates & criminals can roam freely here.

The Marine & WG can't meddle in this, because Kano Country is affiliated with WG. Only when the pirates leave the island, will the Marine & WG chase them.

Buggy looks at the port town and gets reminded of something. 'This town looks like an ancient Chinese kind of town. Wait! It's more like those towns from Wuxia novel or manga- no, manhua? Eh, or manhwa? Ah, whatever.'

No matter what it is called, the town looks like a Chinatown. Buggy can even see tall mountains like what is described in those wuxia novels.

'Will there be cultivators who fly on their swords here?' Buggy thinks of useless stuff while they get closer to the island. This is not a wuxia novel, so there won't be cultivators. A fact that Buggy ignore for his amusement.

They dock at the port and unsurprisingly the authority asks them to pay the parking fee. They pay it to avoid trouble so they can explore the island freely.

The Clowns leave the ship to explore the country. Only Dina & Robin stay on the ship to hide. Kano is a big country, so there must be spies everywhere.

Buggy now goes to the broker with Jude. She said she want to learn how to gather information. Buggy teaches her basic level information gathering skills. They go to a bar and buy information.

Jude watches as Buggy buys the information. Then after they buy the information, Buggy takes Jude to the black market. He teaches her the signs and how to enter the black market.

Jude is awed by the black market's system and sold items. But she is also scared when she sees unusual items. Blackmarket is beyond her understanding.

"This place is called black market because of this. They sell illegal or unusual stuff. So don't hope to see nice things in here," says Buggy to Jude.

"I-I understand," replies Jude.

They leave after Buggy explains some important things about the black market to Jude. They explore the town on the 'surface' and Jude sees a big difference.

"The normal market seem very nice after I saw the black market. But the normal market doesn't have many items that are only sold on the black market." Jude ponders about the difference.

"Blackmarket sold illegal items, while normal market sold legal items. They also have different customers so their atmosphere is different. You'll get used to it after you try it some times."

"Yes, he is Buggy 'The Clown', a pirate with a bounty of 63 million. He is the captain of his own crew, the Clown Pirates. Their vice-captain also has 19 million on his head. They are rookie pirates that have just sailed for a few weeks. Furthermore, they came from North Blue." Chinjao's subordinate explains about Buggy.

"They've just sailed for a few weeks, but already have such bounties. They've even crossed from North Blue to West Blue. Interesting, very interesting. Take me to see that kid!" Chinjao orders his subordinates.

"Yes."

Don Chinjao and his subordinates then go to Buggy's location. When they arrive, Buggy has climbed down the mountain. He almost reaches the bottom and he senses a strong presence there. He looks down and sees Don Chinjao at the bottom.

When Buggy reaches the bottom, Chinjao comes up to him. "Brat, why did you do all of this? I understand why you want to climb the peaks, but why did you add weight?" Chinjao asks Buggy.

"It's not difficult enough. Just climbing the mountains isn't difficult enough for me." Buggy's answer surprise Chinjao a little.

"It's not difficult enough? Do you know just how many people failed to climb the mountains in the past?" asks Chinjao.

"I don't know and I don't care. What I know is that I can do it and the normal way isn't enough for me. To be strong, I need to surpass my limit. That's why I added weight to reach and surpass my limit," says Buggy while smiling.

Chinjao widens his eyes a little because he feels something coming out from Buggy. He looks around and no one else senses it like him. Even Buggy doesn't feel anything nor realizes it.

'It is still dormant, but it certainly there,' thinks Chinjao.

Chinjao grins and says, "Then how if we make a deal?"
