I spent the following days getting use to my new flame and trying to perfect my control over it. I decide to continue staying on the hotel as i will be noticed if i leave the town during this period.
The marines continue their investigation during the following days. They search everywhere around the town for possible suspects.
On the 5th day after the incident, the marines come to the hotel i stayed in. After calling everyone to the dinery they started to inquire about us.
As i am staying in a luxurious hotel, the people staying here are all rich like businessman, nobles, aristocrats and ship captains. So when the marines asked their questions they don't take it very well.
Sitting in one of the chairs near the window, i look at the commotions happening in the room. Some of the nobles take this investigation as an insult to their honour.
But after a man weaing black suits shows his WG agents I.D the commotion somewhat calms down. After asking various questions it is finally my turn.
After standing before me one of the marines asked, "Sir what is your name?"
I replied, "My name is Enel from Barkia".
The marine look at me weirdly and asked, "Sir where is this Barkia? And your business in Loguetown?"
I replied, "Barkia is just a small village located in an island near Yotsuba island. I am a new businessman now living in Goa kingdom and i come to Loguetown to search for potential business partner".
The marine proceeded to ask various other questions like my arrival time, what i did on the night of attack etc.
I replied the marine with some bullshit i make up as no one knows my whereabout. Even if they investigate my background there is no problem as they will not find anything on me.
After they are done questioning everyone they left the hotel. They only did a superficial check as the marines cannot really afford to often rich and influential prople.
Without any breakthrough in their investigation about the attack, Borsalino and the elites from the Headquarters leave the town on their warship after a week.
It seems they decided to investigate using Cipher Pol Agents. I believe they will try to determine the criminal using the appearance of Devil Fruit and treasures in underworld network or find someone using the stolen Devil Fruit power.

2 weeks later
I am now deciding on how to travel to the Grand Line. Instead of travelling the calm belt i decide to travel through the Reverse mountain on some pirate ship.
I decided to see and experience the Reverse mountain for myself, asfor the ship? i don't want to use my new boat. So, i am going to travel using Buggy's ship and how am i going to do that?
After sorting out my thought i decided to give out a mission through the system. To avoid suspicion from Buggy i have to make some bullshit excuse.
Why i am doing all this? It is because i want a free ride. Nah, the real reason is because i want to see Crocus and Buggy meeting each other.
So i type the mission and decided to wait for Buggy to pick me up while i continue to practice my Flame mastery.
After Buggy heard the Marines from Headquarter leave the East Blue he start to plan his next move. Since he already decide to enter the grand line he started to collect more crew members and start training them.
As a former cabin boy of the Rogers pirate, he know the condition of the Grand Line so he decided to train himself well, espicially on tekkai.
He is confident enough to defeat most of the pirates, but he still want to be more prepared. So, he started to think of a way to gather S.P.
After thingking for a long time he decided to attack and loot Loguetown. It is in the route to Grand Line, and also because he hates the place.
Even though it is a bit risky, it is the town having the largest amount of wealth. But, he is not weak anymore and he is confident enough to escape the town with his crew.
He will loot the various shops in the town with his crew members and escape with his crew before the marines surround them. Besides there are only few marines on duty as they are busy searching for pirates outside the town
So, after sorting out his thought, he told his crew members to prepare and sail for Loguetown at dawn. Looking at the pirates before him he decided to recruit stronger pirates along the way.
His crew members increase by around 140 pirates and they also got 4 pirates ships they captured from the pirate crew they defeated on the seas . But he knows they are still weak for the Grand line.
While thingking about this he got a notification from the system.
[System mission:
1.Reach grandline within a week
Reward: 10,000 S.P.
2. Gather 250 crews before reaching Grandline
Reward: 10,000 S.P.
(Current crew members 170)]
After looking at the system, he decided to gather some strong man when he loot Loguetown. After Completing this mission he hope he will have enough S.P to upgrade his iron body(tekkai).
******(end of Buggy POV)******
After 2 days have passed, i head towards the restaurant near the docks. I wait for the show to start by enjoying myself on the various foods available on the shop while checking on the movement of Buggy.
Buggy and his crew arrive at Loguetown with their ships around noon. They took down their pirates flags and arrive on the dock as normal sailors.
After going down the ship they spread themselves in groups. Some of them walks towards the various ships in the shipyard while the majority walks toward the industrial part of the town.
After an hour have passed, i heard screams coming from the shipyard along with sounds of fighting. It seems like the Clown Pirates have started their actions.
I follow the others and walk out of the restaurent and head towards the docks. When i reach the dock there are large number of people standing near the docks and looking at the fight happening around various merchant ship.
While some of the civilian screams for marines, the fight ended after the pirates kill the guards around the dock. The Clown pirates started looting and transport the various treasures and goods from the merchants ship to their ship.
After transporting the loot, some of the pirates head towards us while drawing their weapons. They started shouting and points at the men around the docks to follow them on the ship.
I act like a normal civilian and fearfully walk towards the ship along with the other men's while some of the courageous guys fight back and get beaten up.
After taking us to the ship, the pirates started counting us while other pirates arrive on the ship bringing more men and treasures from the town.
It seems that the marines finally started taking actions as there are sounds of guns and fighting coming from inside the town.
More and more pirates comes running toward the ship carrying treasures and hostages, behinds them comes the marines chasing and fighting with some pirates on the back.
After the fighting reach the port, the pirates walks toward us, point their sword on our neck and made us stand on the deck of the ship facing the marines. Similar things also happens on the other 4 ships.
One of the pirates leaders, which i recognise as Billy shouts , "Marines stop your actions or we will kill them all" and decided to slash the neck of one unlucky guy and throws him down from the ship.
This action stops the Marines and pirates fighting on the dockyard. Taking advantages of the time the pirates walks toward the ship with their hostages.
Sounds of crying and weeping came from the civilian hostages, while Billy continues to shouts,
"Shut up for me, anyone of you makes a sound and i will kill you" ,which stops the hostages from wailing forcing them to silently cries and shudder in their place.
Looking at the marines, Billy continues, "Marines, drop your weapons and leave the place or we will kill all the hostages" , while silently cursing Buggy in his heart.
'Captain hurry up i seriously can't stand this pressure' and fiercely look at the marines while tightly holding a sword in his left hand and pointing the gun on his right hand toward the marines.
The situation comes to a stalemate as the marines can't abondaned the pirates and they can't fight the pirates as sacrificing the hostages in front of the onlooking town people will ruin the marines reputation.
Both sides looks at each other fiercely. Marines asked the pirates to surrender while Billy from the Clown pirates told the marines to leave.
Looking at this situation, i find it quite funny and wonders what will the marines do in this situation if Smoker was here, i know that akainu will burn the ship and sacrifice the civilians for justice.
While the stalemates continued the pirates start to hang their Clown pirates flag in the sails of the ship waiting for their Captain and other crew members who continued to arrive on the docks with marines.
After some time Buggy arrive on the dock and proudly enters the ship under everyone's eye wearing his Captain's hat. Looking at the hostage of around people100 proples, he told Billy to start sailing.
Buggy look at the marines and said, "Woi marines don't try to chase after us or we will kill the hostages. Remember me i am Buggy D. Clown, Captain of the Clown pirates".
Looking at the Canon his trained lackeys places before him, he light a matchstick and said, "I will give you a taste of my new Flashy Bomb for your hospitality, Goodbye" and light the fuse on the canon
*Boom*
The bomb falls and exploded on the dock among the marines while the Clown pirates sails away from the island toward Reverse mountain.
After sailing for some time all the ships stops and Buggy shouts, "Everyone welcome to the clown Pirates crew. From today onward you will be part of my crew, we will take good care of you"
I know that it is time so i gave him his reward so i proceeded to reward him.
[Mission 2 completed, Host recieve 10,000 S.P]
Looking at the notification, Buggy laughs, "zyahahaha everyone lets enter the Grand Line today. Sail at full speed to the Grand Line" and enter his cabin taking all the treasures with him.
After some time i heard a system notification. I check it out and it seems buggy manage to recieve around 30,000 S.P from his exchange. It seems they have quite a finding in the town.
I know that there is more than this but i guess beggars cannot be choosers as it is not a great idea to remain on the town to search for treasures with all the marines on their tails.
I proceeded to exchange everything on my inventory and recieve 300,000 S.P which brings my total System Points to 1.05m S.P.
'Thanks Buggy, i hope your bounty increases with your recent drama. I am sure you really piss off the marines this time'.
I can now fineally relax as it is quite hard to be at ease without at least 1 m S.P. in my balance. Heck i would like to at least have 5m S.P for emergency, i decided to be more carefull in the future.
After sorting out my thought i look at the sea and i can't wait to travel on the Reverse mountain. Since, i am with Buggy i am not afraid of getting on an accidents as he is one of the guys with highest luck in onepiece world.
