Chapter 68: Torino Kingdom

After Gaban agreed to protect Dina & Robin, the Clown Pirates decide to leave. Their route might have been discovered by the Marine and this island might get found.

It will endanger Dina, Robin, and the villagers because, with Gaban here, the Marine will send strong officers like Garp, Sengoku, or other Admiral-level officers.

"Gaban-san, I hope you will have some kids when we meet again," says Buggy while waving from his ship.

"SHUT UP, YOU MONGREL!" Gaban yells at Buggy with a red face while throwing one of his axe at Buggy.

The axe hit Buggy and split his body before flying away to the sea. Luckily it's just a common axe, not Gaban's high-grade axe that he used when he's still active. So it's not a problem if the axe is gone.

Buggy laughs and waves again at Gaban, Dina, & Robin. They sail away from the island to resume their journey. They will explore South Blue before they go to the Grandline.

"Where will we go, Captain?" asks Jude.

"Let's try to get a doctor first. We'll go to the Torino Kingdom," says Buggy.

The Clown Pirates now sail to the Torino Kingdom. It's the Kingdom where Chopper learns for 2 years in time skip. That Kingdom looks very undeveloped, but it's actually quite advanced, especially in medical terms.

That's why Buggy wants to find a doctor from that place. Chopper can learn a lot in 2 years of training, so their medical knowledge must be very high.

Buggy doesn't care about their plump and short appearance. In his crew, the normal ones are only the girls. He & Cricket are strange enough, so another strange-looking member isn't a problem.

It takes three days for them to reach Torino Kingdom. When they see the island, they are amazed by the very tall tree that has some giant bird nests on it. They've seen some unique islands, but something like this will still amaze them.

They come ashore and dock on an empty coast. Then Buggy, Mantis, & Jude go down to explore the island. Cricket stays on the ship to guard it. He's also still injured so he can't explore the island.

The trio moves together to find the inhabitants of this island. They walk through the forest while looking around at the vegetation here.

They find some native plants in the forest but ignore them. Some plants might be dangerous, so they don't want to touch them.

While walking in the forest, they hear a loud cry from the sky. They look up and see a giant bird with blue feathers & a red beak. The giant bird is the native bird of this island and is considered its ruler.

Buggy & co just look at the bird that flies away to its nest. Then they resume their exploration to find the human natives. It's hard to find the village in this thick forest.

"Hmm, you're right," says Mantis.

"Ah, Captain, there's a poisonous mushroom in front of you," says Jude.

Buggy stops and looks down to find the mushroom that Jude meant. Then he sees a red mushroom with some white dots like the mushrooms in games.

Buggy then takes the mushroom and place it in a special container. It might have a use in the future, so he keeps it. Besides, he wants to raise his poison resistance, so he will need some poisons for that.

"Why'd you want to raise your poison resistance?" asks Mantis.

"Because our enemies might use poisons in the future. Remember the Axe Gang leader that I fought on your island? He also used poison that gave me quite the trouble. In the future, our enemies might use deadly poisons, so we need to have some immunity for it," says Buggy.

"Hmm, I guess you're right. But I think to build up poison resistance isn't that easy, right?" asks Mantis.

"Yeah, we need to be careful and always prepare the antidote. That's why we need a doctor to help us. Well, even without that, we still need a doctor. Our health is important," says Buggy.

Buggy & co continue their exploration and find some poisonous plants & useful herbs that Nhiba has asked them to take if they find them. These herbs are useful to make medicines.

While they walk around the forest, Buggy suddenly senses something. He senses someone or something is watching them from far away. He doesn't sense any malicious intent from this watcher, but it is more like a curiosity.

Buggy thinks, 'Is it one of the natives here? Why don't they come out and just talk to us? But this guy is quite strong for a South Blue residence. Hmm, let's wait and see what this guy wants from us.'

Buggy ignores the watcher and continues his exploration.
