Chapter 71 The remnants of the old era

Feihua Island, East China Sea

All the members of the Joker Pirates gathered together, with Buggy surrounded by the crew. At present, this group of people didn't have a good impression of the Straw Hat Pirates, and seeing that so many people with special abilities appeared from the other side five years later, this group of people were extremely envious.

Then a huge city appeared in the sky. Rayleigh and Luffy were sucked in in the blink of an eye. When they saw the future Buggy appear again, the soldiers around him cheered loudly.

"Captain Buggy's appearance is so cool."

"A city that keeps changing in the air, is this also the work of a person with special abilities?"

"In the future, the Joker Pirates' base is actually in the air. The Navy can't reach us."

Amid the praises of his companions, Buggy the Clown stared at his future self in the light curtain with his eyes. He had never possessed that kind of unruly temperament, and he knew his own capabilities, but he really wanted to become like the person in the light curtain.

The more colorful clown makeup also fascinated the real owner. The warm atmosphere was created like this. The weak Buggy knew how to control his subordinates. He made these people who followed him at the beginning happy today. "Let's have a party and celebrate our future."

The remnants of the Joker Pirates took out the food and drinks they had looted in the past few days. Just when everyone was busy with their own things, the sexy Alberta sat next to Buggy and spoke in a more gentle tone: "Captain, I wonder if you are free tonight to come to my room for a drink."

Bucky thought there was such a good thing...

The content on the light screen continued, and the reappearance of Buggy the Clown touched the sensitive nerves of the navy.

"Captain Rayleigh, I have changed a lot, but I think you won't recognize me."

Rayleigh is usually a handsome old man with a smile on his face, but this time when facing the acquaintances on the boat, he changed his usual smile and looked vigilant, "The aura you exude is completely different from the Buggy the Clown I know. You are completely two different people. Maybe a monster has stolen Buggy's body."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh drew out his sword and disappeared beside Luffy in an instant. The sword light slashed at Buggy who was sitting in the main seat. He wanted to try out who the person in front of him was. Why did he choose to impersonate Buggy the Clown?

When someone on a boat in the past drew a sword against him, the clown still had an exaggerated smile on his face. He only said to the woman in kimono kneeling beside him, "Mingnu, you don't have to do anything."

"Yes"

Buggy took the initiative to meet the sword that Rayleigh was chopping at him. He did not choose to use any weapons, but used his own body to receive the enemy's attack.

The sword and fist collided with each other. At first it was a contest of armament color, and later it became a collision between domineering colors. Two powerful auras gathered together and spread violently around, creating a storm with the two of them as the center.

Luffy, who was at the back, grabbed hold of a point of the building. His small body was nearly blown away by the momentum. The kimono girl named Naruto played the pipa in her hand and moved the building in front of him.

"Vice-Captain Rayleigh is still as good as ever. Even at this age, he can still release such a powerful domineering aura. It's a pity for him to retire now."

"I really misjudged you before, kid. I didn't expect you to be the same as Shanks. When did you start hiding yourself?"

The simple collision of Conqueror's Haki made Luffy see how to use Conqueror's Haki. In front of these two monsters, he suddenly felt that he had a lot of room for improvement with his newly awakened Conqueror's Haki.

After a fight and confirming each other's identities, Rayleigh and Buggy reconciled again. After all, they had been on the same ship and had no grudges against each other, so they stopped at that.

Buggy invited Luffy and Rayleigh to join him at the table. Today's sumptuous banquet was prepared for the two of them.

"Mingnu, call Barrett back. He probably hasn't seen the vice-captain since he escaped from prison."

The camera zoomed in on the woman in kimono. Her clothing and temperament were no different from those of the women in Wano Country, except that her hair was particularly thick, covering the upper half of her face. "Okay."

Mingnu held the pipa in one hand and gently plucked the strings with her fingers. This was the sound of the strings that Rayleigh and Luffy had heard before. They were drawn into it when they heard this sound.

A figure familiar to Rayleigh was pulled into this moving city. The other person was a sturdy man with long light blond hair. For a moment, he was still feeling the changes in space, and his eyes were a little dull.

After his eyes regained their spirit, the first thing he said when he saw Buggy the Clown was to complain: "Captain Buggy, I'm still fighting. Why did Mingnu suddenly call me back? Is there something wrong?"

"Barrett, don't you see me?"

"So Rayleigh is here. I was wondering why he was called back so suddenly."

Barrett sat in the seat next to Rayleigh, grabbed the wine jug and drank it wildly. He had just experienced a battle, and it was really wonderful to drink some wine at this time. On the way, he did not forget to toast the former deputy captain, "I didn't expect that we would meet again one day. Rayleigh, you have aged a lot."

In his impression, Rayleigh, who has the title of Pluto, is a strong uncle with blond hair. The Rayleigh in front of him not only has completely white hair, but even his beard and eyebrows have turned white. Calculating the time, he is almost eighty years old.

"Time is merciless. We haven't seen each other for more than 20 years. Time flies by so fast."

Since Roger opened the Age of Discovery, Barrett was captured and thrown into the underwater prison not long after. More than 20 years have passed in a flash. Rayleigh, who has been drinking, feels a little sad. He feels that he is really old. If it weren't for Luffy, he would have stayed in the Sabaody Archipelago for the rest of his life.

Barrett looked at the little boy in a straw hat beside Rayleigh, with his head buried in the food. Because he was a rubber man, he could stuff a lot of food into his mouth at a time, and his entire cheek swelled up into a big ball of flesh.

"It's Luffy, right? It's just like what Captain Buggy said. He looks a bit like Roger."

Buggy, who was sitting in the chairman's seat, saw that his subordinates were eager to try, so he tried to stop them: "You've picked the wrong opponent. Luffy now can't take a few of your punches. Even Captain Roger has a growth process, and he is still too immature now."

"He is the benefactor of the prisoners who escaped from the Undersea Prison. He is half responsible for my escape from the sixth level of the prison. I will let him off this time today."

Luffy escaped a beating today, but he didn't hear about it. He was focused on the delicious food. It was the first time he ate such delicious food after more than two years of special training. He was so moved that he almost cried. He was so tired of eating roasted beast meat after two years.

Everyone ate and drank during the meal, chatted with each other about the past on Roger's ship, and recalled that legendary experience together.
