Chapter 963: Buggy's Plan to Save Ace
Blue hair, red nose, orange cloak, ambitious and brave.
That's him.
"Bucky?!"
"Who is this guy..."
"Whose nose are you talking about?! Asshole!!"
"Do you know a way to Impel, Bucky?"
The originally hopeless plan suddenly had a chance, and Luffy didn't care about anything else and asked directly: "Please tell me, please!!"
Hearing Luffy's plea, Buggy, who was originally depressed because he couldn't get the treasure and was forcibly brought here, suddenly became arrogant and said, "You want to know the method? I will charge you for it! How about exchanging it for all the treasures on your ship?"
"I understand. I'll give you all my money. Compared to treasure, Ace's life is more important."
"Wait...Luffy?!"
"make a deal!"
Fearing that Luffy would change his mind, Buggy immediately agreed. After he finished speaking, he even felt relieved. He turned around and shouted to his brothers, "You guys, go move the treasures to our ship!"
"Yes!! Captain Buggy!!" ×N
After a group of pirates left the banquet eagerly, Luffy looked at Nami with an apologetic, serious and sincere expression: "I'm sorry, Nami! Just consider that the money is a loan from you. I will pay you back when I have money in the future."
"I did not mean that!"
Nami sighed helplessly and poked Luffy's forehead with a finger in frustration: "If it's for the sake of saving your brother, it doesn't matter how much treasure you take. But you should think carefully before making a decision! Who knows if his method will work!"
The others were stunned at first, and then they all echoed.
"I think Nami is right. We should at least listen first..."
"As far as I know, there should be no other method except what I mentioned before..."
Seeing that several people were doubtful about what he said, Buggy raised his eyebrows, and raised his thumbs towards his chest with his backhand, with a proud face: "Don't compare me with you little pirates. I grew up on the sea since I was a child. The method I give will definitely work!"
"That's what he said..." Luffy turned to look at Nami, stupidity clearly written on his face.
"So, you should at least question it..."
The more helpless Nami was, the more proud Buggy became, even to the point of being carried away by his pride. He couldn't stop talking: "Your personality is really easy to grasp, Straw Hat boy! I don't think you know the value of those treasures yet? That is a wealth far beyond your imagination!"
"But now that the decision has been made, there's no point in regretting it now! Hahahaha...!!!"
Several people looked at Buggy who was laughing wildly, and finally reacted belatedly: "Come to think of it, I remember the newspaper said that Buggy was the criminal who beat the Celestial Dragons, right? In other words, Ace was arrested now because of this guy!!"
The air suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned toward Bucky gradually becoming unfriendly.
“Eh…?” Bucky’s laughter stopped abruptly. His clear yet confused eyes blinked and a stream of snot hung from his red nose.
Boom!
Boom! !
Boom!!!
Crackling!!!!
After the beating, everyone calmly retracted their fists and looked coldly at Bucky, who was lying on the ground with a big bump on his head, a bruised nose and a swollen face, and his face was completely disfigured, with only half his life left in his body.
Nami stepped forward and grabbed Buggy by the collar , still with that incomparably creepy smile on her face: "You'd better give us a useful method! Otherwise, you know the consequences, right?"
"I...I understand...I will tell you everything truthfully!!"
After a brief tidying up, everyone sat down again. Buggy took the map that Nami had just mentioned and began to explain his method seriously.
"First of all, you need to know that although Impel is an underwater prison, it is actually built on an island. In other words, that place has a magnetic field."
"As long as the island has a magnetic field, we can create a corresponding permanent pointer!"
"In fact, Impel does have a permanent pointer, but it's very expensive!"
Nami pinched her chin, thinking: "In other words, we don't need to enter the Gate of Justice. We can just buy a permanent pointer pointing to Impel Prison and reach our destination directly?"
“That’s right!”
Buggy nodded and drew the location of the Sabaody Archipelago near Marinford on the map. "The second thing is, if you want to enter that inner circulation, there is a non-sea route!"
"There is a coating technology in the Sabaody Archipelago that allows ships to sail underwater regardless of water pressure. You will also use this method when you go to Fishman Island later."
"By the way, the permanent pointer to Impel might be available there!"
Nami's eyes flashed with light, and she suddenly realized: "I see! After leaving the Seven Water City, the record pointer has been pointing downwards. I was still wondering how to get down to the depths of 10,000 meters in the sea. It turns out that this method is required..."
"First, go to the Sabaody Archipelago, then buy a pointer and dive down... Wait! How can a sailboat sail underwater?"
Just as he was worrying, Laura and others suddenly came over and said, "I know this. A sailboat needs to use the ocean currents on the seabed! On the seabed, the direction of the ocean currents is the direction of the wind!"
"Lola, do you know this too?"
"Yes! This is common sense in the New World. To enter the New World from Paradise, you have to pass through the Fishman Island on the seabed, so all navigators must know this!"
When Nami heard the words "every navigator must know this", she suddenly felt that the responsibility on her shoulders became heavier.
Lola noticed Nami's worry and immediately said generously: "We have a navigator on board who is familiar with this knowledge. Let him teach you later!"
"Thank you!!" Nami immediately hugged Lola excitedly.
Because they had hope, Luffy and the others were grateful to Buggy and thanked him repeatedly.
But the next moment, Buggy's words gave them a wake-up call: "Don't be too happy too soon! Learning to sail underwater is not such a simple task!"
Luffy chuckled and said, "It's okay, I have confidence in Nami! Because she is the best navigator in the world!!"
Nami immediately puffed out her chest proudly, and amidst the ups and downs of her body, she smiled confidently and said, "Leave it to me!"
"Listen up, Straw Hat Boy!"
"If we set out from the Sabaody Archipelago to Impel, we definitely can't take the sea route because the direction of the ocean current is completely opposite. We have to go far enough, but it's easy to get lost. If we're unlucky and encounter headwinds, we may waste several days!"
Hearing this, Luffy fell silent. He looked at the newspaper again. The Navy only had one week left to execute Ace. The time could not be so tight, otherwise it would be troublesome if something unexpected happened along the way.
Apparently, Buggy had also thought of this, so he immediately offered a solution: "So after you get the permanent pointer in the Sabaody Archipelago and coat the ship, you will need to dive down and take the submarine route to enter the inner circulation. The speed there is very fast, and it only takes about 3 hours to go around a whole circle, so you can reach the bottom of Impel in about 2 hours!"
“2 hours?!”×N
Buggy smiled like a military strategist: "Right! It's fast, right? And if we take the underwater route, we can perfectly avoid the navy heading to Marinford. This method can kill two birds with one stone!"
In fact, in the original work, the Whitebeard Pirates also used this method to capture Marinford.
"So awesome... Buggy!!" After hearing Buggy's plan, Luffy looked at him differently. In addition to gratitude, there was also visible admiration.
Sanji looked at Nami worriedly and asked, "Nami-san, will his plan really work?"
"Hmm... I can't see any loopholes at the moment..."
Under everyone's shocked and admiring gazes, Bucky's red nose became even redder and rounder.
"Don't be too happy yet! You haven't solved the most difficult level yet, Straw Hat Boy!"
Luffy instantly calmed down, sitting up straight and listening like a good student: "What is it?"
Buggy was very satisfied with Luffy's condition, and smiled evilly: "Even if we reach our destination, Impel's guards won't be so easy to break through!"
"Let me make it clear to you first. Impel's guards are almost There are also a large number of surveillance Den Den Mushi. Once you enter, you will be discovered immediately!"
"If you don't solve this most difficult problem, you will be trapped if you break in!!"
Buggy thought that what he said could scare Luffy, but Luffy didn't react at all: "It doesn't matter, I will definitely find a way when the time comes !"
"Aaaaahhh!!! I just hate your casual style of doing things. You're exactly like that bastard Shanks!!"
Luffy crossed his arms and said in a strong voice: "No matter what, I must save Ace!!"
"Wait a minute! Luffy!!"
Sanji suddenly stopped Luffy, "This guy is right. If you don't make full preparations, rushing in rashly is no different from committing suicide... Hey, Red Nose! Do you know what Impel Prison is like?"
"Huh?! Who are you talking about..."
Boom! Boom!
"Answer me properly!" Sanji retracted his legs and said unhappily.
"...Yes! This is what I know..."
Buggy rubbed the big bump on his face, cursed in his heart, and took the blueprint beside him to draw a simple sketch: "Imper Prison is built in the doldrums. The entrance is on the sea surface, but the prison cells are on the seabed. It is surrounded by large sea kings. From the walls to all the cells and handcuffs, they are all made of seastone."
"The defense here is the best in the world!!"
