RBTC: Chapter 97

---

As they returned to where the Glory was docked, they found many corpses near the ship. They had died a gruesome death, most of them cut in half. Weevil was standing on the ship, vigilantly watching the surroundings.

After Buggy and his crew left, many people quickly discovered the situation with the Glory. Many of them knew it was Buggy's ship and knew about his deeds. They abandoned their greed.

But there were also those who weren't afraid of death. Seeing that Buggy and his crew had left the ship, they took a chance and targeted the Glory.

Of course, these people's strength was no match for Weevil. As these pirates approached the Glory, Weevil didn't even bother talking to them. He directly fought them. Weevil wasn't the kind of person who liked to think. He only knew that Buggy told him to watch over the ship, to prevent people from targeting it. And now, since someone dared to approach their ship, and he didn't recognize them, he directly treated them as enemies. He didn't hesitate to attack. With Weevil's strength, most of these people ended up cut in half.

Standing on the ship, Weevil immediately saw Buggy and his crew returning. A smile spread across his face. He shouted loudly from a distance, "Cousin, you're back."

Buggy and his crew quickly boarded the Glory. Weevil told everyone about what happened after they left.

Not long after Buggy and his crew left, many people quickly rushed towards the Glory. After Weevil discovered them, a battle ensued. Of course, these people were no match for Weevil. Most of them were slain by his blade. Only a few managed to escape with serious injuries.

"Good job, Weevil."

"Heeheehee, Cousin."

Weevil needed to be praised. He was like a child. This would encourage his enthusiasm. Of course, Weevil was very happy to hear Buggy's praise. But he didn't say anything. He just stood there smiling foolishly.

Buggy and his crew didn't stay on the ship for long. Cricket rushed towards them with his belongings.

"Buggy-sama, Buggy-sama, I have news."

Hearing his voice and what he said, everyone guessed that he might have news about the upward current.

Cricket soon boarded the Glory. Under everyone's gaze, he said, "Buggy-sama, a huge change is happening in a sea area not far from us. The waves are surging. It's very likely that the upward current is forming."

After hearing his words, everyone didn't delay any further. They each started their own tasks. The Glory quickly started under everyone's combined efforts.

Everyone quickly turned the ship around, circling the island for about half its circumference. Then, they quickly advanced towards the front. Within a few minutes, they arrived at the target sea area.

The calm surface of this sea area had already been broken. The waves were undulating rapidly in the absence of wind. Soon, under Buggy's gaze, a huge whirlpool appeared in the middle of the waves, leading to the seabed.

Seeing this situation, and with Cricket's confirmation, everyone knew that this was the core area where the upward current was forming.

Buggy and his crew didn't rush to act. It was just beginning. The huge whirlpool was also dangerous. If the ship sailed there, an accident might occur.

Everyone watched the situation of the whirlpool from a distance. The whirlpool was very large and very fast. They also saw several Sea Kings being dragged along by the whirlpool. They couldn't resist. They couldn't even struggle in the whirlpool. Some had even fainted. Others had completely disappeared in the whirlpool. Seeing this, everyone realized how dangerous it was.

The whirlpool continued for several minutes. Under everyone's gaze, the sea surface suddenly returned to calm.

"Captain, isn't that the Sky Current?"

Seeing the sea surface return to calm, everyone had this question.

"Sail the ship over there. The current will soon surge up from the seabed."

Buggy clearly remembered that Luffy and his crew were blown into the sky by the Sky Current right after the whirlpool calmed down. Seeing the whirlpool calm down, he knew that the Sky Current was about to surge up from the seabed.

"Understood, Captain."

Everyone was very surprised to hear Buggy's answer. They didn't understand how Buggy knew this. He didn't even know the specific situation of the Sky Current before. But no one hesitated. They directly steered the Glory to where the whirlpool had been.

Soon, the Glory arrived above the location of the former whirlpool. After a while, everyone noticed something unusual at the bottom of the sea. The ship began to shake slightly.

"Everyone, grab onto different parts of the ship. The Sky Current is coming."

Since the ship was already moving, they were sure that the Sky Current was coming. Grabbing the ship was to prevent them from falling during the ascent. This was very dangerous. Falling from such a height, even if they didn't die, would be very dangerous.

Hearing Buggy say this, everyone found a place they thought was the safest and held on tightly. Everyone waited for the eruption of the Sky Current.

Not long after, below the Glory, the sea surface suddenly began to bulge upwards. In an instant, it seemed as if the force had erupted instantly. The seawater instantly shot into the sky, forming a giant pillar that connected heaven and earth.

Buggy and his crew's ship quickly advanced on this pillar.

Of course, advancing on this pillar came with dangers. Many objects and Sea Kings were falling downwards. Their ship was also tilting upwards, as if it was about to fall at any moment.

Seeing this situation, Buggy was also very anxious. If their ship fell from such a height, the people might be fine under his protection, but their ship would be severely damaged. It might even be completely destroyed.

Seeing this dangerous situation, Lafitte spoke up, "Captain, we must try to make the ship move with the current as much as possible."

"Listen to Lafitte."

In this situation, the navigator's role was the most important. Under Lafitte's command, the Glory moved with the current. The ship stabilized under this control. After sailing for a while, the ship was driven by the current and broke free from it. It hovered in the air, like an airplane, and quickly flew into the sky.

In no time, they followed the current through the clouds and arrived at the Sky Sea, which was completely made of white clouds.

Seeing this scene, everyone except Buggy was shocked. They didn't expect there to be a sea made of white clouds. Some people even wanted to swim down there, but Buggy stopped them. This sea could directly drop them to Jaya Island. Falling from such a height, without any special abilities, would be a death sentence.
