After Ian left, Morgan smiled at the middle-aged marine and said, "Haha, it's really interesting. The pirate caught by this rookie is one of the circus-like Buggy group?"
"Yes!" The middle-aged marine nodded.
There was some disdainful dialogue between the two men, and the truth was revealed inadvertently. In fact, at this time, Buggy's real identity had not been discovered by the marine headquarters, and the Buggy Pirates were a really confusing group. Look at Buggy, he is really a clown, and Mohji one of his men, he is basically a Beast Tamer. Even Cabaji was riding a unicycle while juggling. The pirate band doesn't look fierce at all, but more like a funny group. On the contrary, the Buggy pirates are keen on robbing treasures and rarely have direct conflicts with the marines, so the marines feel that their pirate band is just a small fighter and not a threat. So far, only the captain of the ship, Buggy has a bounty, but It's still so low.
Ian didn't know this, so he rushed to catch Cabaji and ended up making an Oopsie.
And when he came out, Ian became more and more annoyed, punching and kicking Cabaji, who was tied by a rope, and Cabaji, like a lamb, could only endure Ian's anger with tears, and he was punched so hard that his head was full with bumps.
If it wasn't for the marines in the base, they had drugged him, Cabaji was afraid of being killed by Ian.
After Ian vented for a while, a loud rumble came from his stomach. It was not until then that Ian remembered that he had not eaten for a long time and smelled the spiciness of food coming from nowhere in the street. Ian felt that his eyes were almost turned green.
Koby also heard this rumbling sound. When Ian was angry, he didn't dare to talk to him at all. Now he quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother Ian, Aren't you hungry? Why don't I buy you dinner! "
"No!" Ian looked at Cabaji with an ill-intentioned eye and said, "You don't have to pay for it, let this fellow pay!"
"I... I have no money!" Cabaji weakly.
"I care about you so much!" Ian smirked and said, "Can't you ride a unicycle? When the time comes, juggle in the street and earn me some money for meals! If you don't earn enough, I'll cut your meat and sell it as beast food!"
By this time, Ian was completely blackened, and Cabaji was shivering after listening to him.
How can a person be able to say such terrible sentences with a smile on his face?
However, something more terrible happened to Cabaji. After entering a restaurant in the town that looked quite distinctive under the guidance of Koby, Ian ordered everything at once and picked whatever dish was expensive. When a large table was finally filled, Cabaji was about to faint!
For this table, how long does it take him to perform before he can earn enough money for this meal?
Even Koby was stunned. He was holding a drink and watching Ian chew like a hungry monster as if he had a grudge against the dishes on the table. He couldn't help but look with sympathy at Cabaji, who was tied to a rope.
The meaning of that look was obvious: you are really miserable!
Whenever he tasted something delicious, he would yell at the restaurant owner and say, "That's good. Ten more!"
Cabaji collapsed: "How can you eat that much?"
As a result, Ian stared at him and said, "I can't pack it and take it away after I finish eating! You'd better think about how to make money first! You have no bounty, then you are responsible for earning money for me!"
Cabaji cried, this time he really cried. He looked up and shouted in his heart, "Great Captain Buggy! Where are you? Come and save me!"
...
Perhaps it was Cabaji's cry that came true. Just as Ian was desperately eating the seafood in the restaurant, on the coast of Shells Town, a pirate boat with a long trunk elephant as its bow was moored there.
This ship is naturally the Big Top, the Buggy Pirates' ship, and the coast there was full of cliffs, and there was no need to worry about people passing by and being found.
A small boat quickly rowed alongside the Big Top. Several nimble pirates climbed up the ladder and saw Buggy sitting on the deck. The pirates shouted out breathlessly, "Captain Buggy, we have good news!"
Buggy straightened up and asked, "What is the situation?"
"That kid did take the Chief of Staff Cabaji to the Marine 153rd Branch!" The pirates said, "We didn't dare to approach the Marine base, but when we asked the people in the town, they all said that they saw the boy! So we guessed that the Chief Cabaji had entered the base and would surely be locked up!"
"Very good!" Buggy laughed and said, "Let's go, my crew! Attack the Shells Town, rescue Cabaji, and catch that damn kid! "
"Hai, Hai!!!" All the members of the Buggy Pirates on board made a collective shout and then steered the ship aggressively towards the Shells Town.
Buggy, on the other hand, commanded the rest of the group and moved the cannon to the side of the ship and a basket of red cannonballs with the Buggy Pirates logo on the surface.
These were the special Buggy Balls. After all, Cabaji is a senior cadre in his pirate group. Although Buggy has been very low-key, for Cabaji, and to seek his revenge for Ian, he can only be high-profile this time.
Buggy is somehow a great pirate who returned from the Grand Line. Usually, he does not provoke the Marines, not just because he was unwilling to, but because he can't afford the consequences.
But Mohji hesitated and asked Buggy, "Captain Buggy, that's a marine base. Is it okay for us to do that?"
"What are you worried about?" Buggy stared at him: "It's just a branch, not a Grand branch of the headquarters. Probably there will be no powerful marines in the town! The highest rank on the 153rd Branch is a colonel, but also the kind of old man waiting for retirement! "
Buggy was not really worried. The real elite strength of the marines was concentrated on the Grand Line. The marines there is the Grand branch of the headquarters. Such a Grand branch will have a "G" sign in front of its numbers, such as the G-2 Branch and the G-5 Branch. The marines here in the East Blue isn't compared with the Grand branch, even if it has a colonel rank, but its strength varies greatly.
Maybe he was a colonel of the Grand branch. Buggy has to think carefully about how he wants to attack the Shells Town, but for the fast-retired colonel of the 153rd Branch, Buggy did not take him seriously.
Mohji nodded and was a little relieved, but cautioned: "By the way, Captain Buggy, I heard that there was a marine soldier named Morgan in Shells Town, who had just wiped out the Black Cat Pirates and caught their captain Kuro. This man needs to be noticed!"
"Really?" Buggy was stunned, then touched his chin and sneered, "Well, this man will be dealing with me this time. You just rush into the base to rescue Cabaji!"
The Big Top left the cliff and headed toward the pier of Shells Town. It was not long before it appeared on the shore.
In the 153rd Branch base, the soldiers who were in charge of looking at the top of the tower discovered the pirate boat of Buggy at that time. The pirate flag hanging on it was so conspicuous, and after a couple of seconds, the alarm issued.
"Whoo ---- Whoo ----- Whoo!!!"
The sirens of a pirate raid rang in the whole Shells Town. People in the town were stunned at first, but then they reacted to what had happened. They immediately rushed out of their homes in panic and from various stores and took their way to the location of the marine base.
At this time, the soldiers in the marine base ran out holding their weapons. They organized their men, put the asylum-seeking townspeople into the marine base to hide them, and reported to their superiors about the attack of the Buggy Pirates.
Colonel Rokkaku, of the 153rd branche, is an old marine. He has been here in the East Blue for twenty or thirty years. Sailors with this rank could survive in the peaceful East Blue, it was his first time that a pirate group attacked a marine base, so even he was a little overwhelmed.
Fortunately, the newly-promoted Lieutenant Morgan, although he was arrogant, he still had some courage. Colonel Rokkaku immediately reported the news to him, and he took the initiative to lead the marines to stop the pirates.
Colonel Rokkaku did not even think about it, and he immediately agreed.
To be honest, when he caught Captain Kuro, Morgan did not know how he did it, (He was hypnotized by Jango into believing that he had captured Kuro) but he was promoted. This promotion completely inspired his ambition. In fact, he had secretly looked at Colonel Rokkaku's position and wondered how he could replace him and become the leader of the 153rd Branch when Colonel Rokkaku retired.
This time, the attack of the Buggy Pirates was his best opportunity. As long as he can lead the marines to kill these pirates, his achievements won't be erased. When the time comes, he will have this credit, and it won't be a problem to be a colonel.
So, Morgan confidently took the naval soldiers to the dock...
At this time, Ian, who was still eating in the restaurant, was confused. He kept eating for a while, and when he looked up, he found that there was no one in the restaurant! Not only the customers, but even the restaurant owner was gone.
Anyone here? Where are the people?
Ian was so hungry that he didn't even hear the alarm when he ate...
At this time, Koby ran from the outside and said in a panic, "Not... not good, Ian brother! Bu... Buggy's pirate group are coming!"
When Ian heard him, he looked at Cabaji next to him and smirked.
When Cabaji saw Ian like this, he immediately felt that Ian didn't have any good intentions. Sure enough, the next second Ian used a toothpick to clean up his teeth and said: "A good news and a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
"What... What do you mean?" Cabaji asked in trepidation.
"The good news is that you don't have to sell your flesh to make money! And the bad news... Is that you may be going to prison, and it could be with your captain..."

not discontinued, its just like a pesticide so people wont read this and this novel to get buried in the sea of trashes
As Ian and Cabaji spoke, the battle between the Buggy Pirates and the marines on the sea began.
First of all, on the Marine side, the cannons in the base were placed in the high position so the range of attack could reach the offshore, the cannon bombardment sounded. The solid shells whistled as they fly in the air. After falling into the sea and exploding, a high water column sprang upon the sea!
However, it is not easy for the cannon to hit a moving ship on the sea. So far, the ship of the Buggy Pirates have not been hit by artillery shells, and it was moving towards the dock at a very fast speed.
Lieutenant Morgan, who had also taken marine soldiers with him, has positioned them at the dock. They used sandbags to build bunkers, holding their muskets one by one, and stared nervously at the Big Top. Once the ship came ashore, the pirates won't hesitate to fire.
However, what the marines did not expect was that the Big Top had started to strike back as soon as it approached the dock.
A special Buggy Ball was stuffed into the cannon, and the pirates aimed the muzzle at the bunker in the shore and then lit the lead behind the cannon.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the special Buggy shell flew out.
One side was moving on the sea, while the other was stationary on the shore, after the special Buggy Ball was shot, it directly hit the Marines' bunker.
The position where the Marines' bunker was hit by the cannonball was directly blasted a gap. The marine soldiers gathered behind were bombed into the sky in an instant. Some of the more tragic ones were blown to pieces. After the special Buggy shells hit the Marines' bunker, it continued to fly to the rear at a very high speed and hit the houses of the townspeople. This led directly to the collapse of a row of houses.
This is the special Buggy shells, not only has great power, but it also has strong penetration ability.
When Buggy saw this scene on the ship, he burst into laughter. He was very satisfied with his special shells, and the pirates on the ship were also cheering.
But it was a tragedy for the marines on shore, especially Morgan, his eyes almost came out when he saw the bunker being bombed.
The heavy casualties of the marines reminded him of the scene when he "captured" Captain Kuro, the picture of the dead soldiers on board.
"Get down! You have to lie down!" Morgan shouted to the remaining soldiers.
Buggy Pirates fired two special Buggy shells toward the shore, but these two times they went askew. The shells grazed the marine's bunker and flew over, landed in the town behind them, and two rows of houses collapsed in a straight line.
Morgan naturally took the situation behind him into account. The attack by the Buggy Pirates had caused great damage to the town, but he had no choice but to rely on the turret on the top of the base tower to hit Buggy's ship.
Perhaps the prayer of Morgan has worked. A shell from the top of the fort finally hit the ship of Buggy and exploded on the deck. The pirates were immediately bombed into the sky, and it made a big hole on the floor.
Buggy felt very distressed by this blow, so he jumped and shouted, "Go ashore! Get us to the shore!"
By this time, the Big Top has reached the dock, and a group of pirates, armed with all kinds of weapons, jumped ashore from the side of the ship, shouting and killing, while they rushed to the remaining marines behind the bunkers.
"Shoot! Shoot fast!" Morgan commanded the marine soldiers.
The marine soldiers gathered their courage, straightened up behind the bunker, and fired at the upcoming pirates. The screaming sounds suddenly broke out, and they rushed at the pirates in front of them. Many of them were shot and fell down with bloody flowers blooming.
The real battle between the marines and the pirates was so cruel that both of them had suffered heavy casualties. However, the pirates from Buggy's side were randomly recruited, and their death doesn't mean much for him. On the other hand, that was different for the marines. Every marine soldier has been trained for a long time. Once he dies, it means that the marines' investment in the soldiers has drifted.
With the advantage of quantity, the pirates rushed to the bunker and shot the musketeers of the marines, and then the two sides entered the white-bladed battle. The scene became more and more bitter when the swords saw the flesh, the blood was spread all over the place.
There are always pirates being cut down, as well as marine soldiers being attacked and slashed down.
The turret on the top of the marine base didn't dare to fire at this time, for fear that the shells would fall into the crowd and accidentally hurt their teammates.
Such a moment was the best time for Morgan to fight. The steel axe of his right arm waved and cut down every pirate getting close to him. It didn't take long for him to take down more than a dozen pirates.
This fellow was actually very brave, with him, he naturally inspired the morale of marine soldiers, but unfortunately, he was also spotted by Buggy.
Morgan just chopped a pirate rushing to him. Suddenly, he felt the light on his head dim. He turned his head and saw a huge lion pouncing at him.
It was Mohji, the Deputy Captain of the Buggy Pirates, and his lion Richie, who was a fool when Ian met him. But in fact, when he fought seriously, the lion Richie was very fierce. He pounced on Morgan and overwhelmed him. Although his axe blocked its mouth, his muscles were not as strong as Richie's, so he fell down.
"You're the Axe-Hand Morgan, the Lieutenant Commander?" Mohji sat on Richie and smiled scornfully. "I heard you caught Captain Kuro of the Black Cat Pirates?"
"Who are you?" Morgan shouted.
"I'm the Deputy Captain of the Buggy Pirates, the Beast Tamer Mohji!" Mohji said: "Before I was deliberately reminding Captain Buggy to pay attention to you! Now I found that you're not that good!"
"Damn you! Don't underestimate me!" Morgan yelled, and unexpectedly kicked on the lower half of Richie's body. Taking advantage of Richie's pain, Morgan used his greatest strength, and the green veins exposed on his arm, he suddenly turned Richie aside and took the opportunity to get up.
However, when he had just got up, a sharp pain suddenly came from the back shoulder position, he screamed and then turned his head, he found that it was a strange hand floating in the air holding a dagger, and the blood was dripping.
"What... What is this?!" Morgan was shocked.
Suddenly the wrist flew towards the rear, and suddenly it glued back to a man, this person was Buggy.
The iconic big red nose made Morgan recognize who Buggy was. He could not help shouting, "Buggy! You're a Devil Fruit user!?"
As a marine, Morgan naturally heard about the Devil Fruits, but since the Marines had never confronted with the Buggy pirates before, so far the marines on this side of the East Blue did not know that Buggy was a Devil Fruit user.
"Haha, you're not mistaken! I am Buggy!" Buggy draped his cloak, wearing his captain's cap on his head, and the cross-shaped bone pattern on his forehead made his smile look fierce. He asked Morgan, "Tell me, where is that damned kid with the bear ear hat? And my Chief of Staff, Cabaji, are you keeping him in the marine base?"
Morgan knows that he was in trouble. The fighting power of the Buggy Pirates was not like a fun circus. The pirate hunter who brought Cabaji to the marine base before was not a rookie. How could it possibly be a rookie to capture their chief of staff from the Buggy Pirates?
Listening to the screams of the marine soldiers, Morgan knew that the Marines had lost. The enemy doesn't have a large number of fighters, but they have a Devil Fruit user. The marines could not win!
So, Morgan made a decision. He suddenly turned around and fled to the marine base behind him.
Buggy didn't think that Morgan would run away without saying a word. He was stunned, with a blank look on his face. Morgan had run away, so Buggy jumped in anger and roared, "Chase him! Catch up with him. Don't let him use Cabaji as a hostage!"
Buggy thought that Morgan had fled to the base to threaten them with Cabaji as a hostage.
Of course, this was the idea of the pirates. The real purpose of Morgan's escape to the base was to seek for help. It was impossible to resist the Buggy Pirates by the strength of the 153rd branch alone. He needs to seek help from the nearby 16th branch, or more insurance, directly from the marines in Loguetown.
As for when the reinforcements will arrive, it was beyond Morgan's control, he could only do his best to save the lives of the innocent people.
From this point of view, Morgan was not yet overwhelmed by his desire for power, he is a qualified marine soldier.
The Buggy Pirates soon got the rest of the marine soldiers, and then led by Buggy and Mohji, they went all the way to the marine base.
Meanwhile, Ian was crawling up from a mess of rubble.
Unfortunately, when a special Buggy shell hit the houses in the town, it happened that it passed through the restaurant where Ian ate. Although it did not hit Ian, a big hole was pierced on both sides of the wall, which caused the house to collapse directly If Ian had not seen the opportunity quickly, so if he didn't hide under the dining table and pulled Koby with him, they would have been badly injured.
When Ian got up, he was still a little confused, but when he saw that Cabaji wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, Ian didn't even think about it. He rushed forward and knocked him to the ground with his long sword.
Grabbing his scarf and twisting him up, Ian angrily said, "What the f*ck! Dare to run? If you ran away. Who's going to earn me money?"
