Chapter 67: Hems Island

The Clown Pirates finally arrived on Hems Island the next day. This island is small and only has a small village on it. The Clown pirates dock their ship on the small port and they go to the village.

While walking from the port, they meet with some villagers. The villagers are very friendly that which makes everyone except Buggy confused. They are pirates, so normal people should be afraid of them.

"Captain, don't they know that we are pirates?" asks Jude.

"They know. They've seen our flag, after all," says Buggy.

"Then, why aren't they feel afraid of us?" asks Jude.

Buggy suddenly stops and says, "Because they don't need to, right?"

Buggy grins while looking at a man who stands in front of them. The man wears a black cloak and blocks the Clown Pirates' way. The Clown pirates stop and stand behind Buggy while looking at the man.

"What's a pirate crew doing here?" asks the man. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

"Why don't you find out?" asks Buggy while unsheathing both his swords.

The man also takes a pair of battle axes from his sleeves. Then Buggy & the man rush to each other and coat their weapons with haki. Buggy swings his swords from above, while the man swings his axes from the sides.

Their weapons clash and it creates a booming sound. They get into a stalemate for a moment, but then Buggy gets fling away at fast speed and he crashes to a boulder and destroys it.

Buggy's crewmates get alerted and they all get ready to fight the man. They never saw Buggy got overpowered & defeated this easily before. They know they need to fight together now if they want to have a winning chance.

"*COUGH COUGH* Stop it, you guys! You won't stand a chance against him at all. Even if we work together, we still won't have a chance," says Buggy while walking back to his crew.

Buggy doesn't have many injuries and only feels back pain. Some blood also trickles from his mouth, but it's not from a big injury. He has covered his body with haki to reduce the damage.

"As I thought, I'm still far from your league," says Buggy while sheathing his swords.

"But your improvement in these 2 years is amazing. Captain will be proud of you, Buggy," says the man.

"I hope so. Long time no see, Gaban-san," says Buggy.

The man opens his cloak's hood and shows his face. He is none other than Scopper Gaban, a former member of Roger Pirates. His appearance doesn't change much as this is only 3 years since the crew's disbandment.

Buggy's crewmates are very surprised to see Gaban. After all, he is one of the legendary figures in Roger Pirates alongside Roger, Rayleigh, and Oden.

Gaban looks at Robin seriously and says, "No."

"Eh? B-but-" Robin wants to say something, but Gaban cut her words.

"If you want to know about it, then go find it yourself! Did you learn all those knowledge to discover history right? If I tell you everything here, then won't your hard work so far become useless? You need to be patient.

What you will discover on your own might be different from what we discovered in the past. Besides, we were not trying to find the real history, so our finding might not be true. But if you insist, then I will tell you all of it now," says Gaban.

Robin looks down in disappointment. Gaban's words are similar to what Buggy said to her in the past. She thinks for a while and decides to not hear it. She will go on her own journey and find the answer by herself.

Dina smile and rubs Robin's head. "Your mother will be proud of you, Robin. She also went on her own journey to find what she seeks."

Buggy smile and then something flashed in his mind. He grins and pulls Gaban to the corner and whispers something to Gaban.

"Hey Gaban-san, you're still single aren't you?" asks Buggy.

"Huh? Why're you asking something like that?" asks Gaban confusedly.

"Hehe, then it's your chance. Dina is still single too. She & Robin will be with you for some years, so you will have a lot of time to get her heart," says Buggy while grinning.

"Oi Buggy, I haven't agreed to this," says Gaban.

Buggy doesn't listen to Gaban's answer and returns to his crewmates. Gaban calls Buggy but he ignores it and just walks away. It makes Gaban sigh and scratches his head.

"This kid is still selfish as usual. Well, it's not a bad thing I guess. It might relieve my boredom while I keep a low profile. I-I mean the part where I need to protect them, not the one about catching her heart. Yeah, it's certainly not that," says Gaban to himself while being flustered.

Then, it's finally decided that Gaban will protect Dina & Robin for a few years until Robin is ready to leave on her own.
