Buggy finally receives the news that things have been solved in Elegia. As expected, Tot Musica's music sheet appeared again. But Gordon has secured it again and now it will be much safer because Shanks gave him a seastone chest to keep the music sheet.

That seastone chest was a gift from Oden that Shanks got a few years ago. It has nothing to do with Buggy, so it was purely Shanks's intention to keep the music sheet in the seastone chest. It will be very safe now because the chest is very sturdy and won't be opened easily.

The Red Hair Pirates left Elegia with Leo and Uta who surprisingly agreed. She actually missed her father Shanks, but she never said it and still looked angry at him. So Shanks decided to take her along with his crew now that she has grown up and can take care of herself.

Also, he has promised Buggy to train Leo for a while. Shanks can't stay in one place for a long time, so they will move around while training. It's also a good chance for Uta to see the world and changes her view of world peace.

Luffy has returned to Marineford with Rayleigh and Jimbei just like in the canon story. Although Ace and Whitebeard didn't die, there are many pirates and Marines who fell in Marineford War. His appearance caused a big commotion and his message was sent to his crewmates.

"2 Years?"

"Yeah, he wrote 2Y and crossed the 3D. We originally planned to meet in 3 Days when Admiral Kizaru attacked us in Sabaody. But now Luffy changed the meeting time to 2 Years. He must've wanted us to be stronger before our meeting."

"2 years, huh? That's too long. I don't think I can train you for 2 whole years. At most, I can train you for around 1 year. Unless you want to follow me to New World after a year."

"No, I won't go to New World before meeting up with my crew. We will enter New World together, I won't go there first."

"Then we will train together for a year, then you need to train alone for the next year. Are you okay with that?"

"No problem, being trained by you for a year is plenty enough."

In Cocoyashi Village, Buggy is smirking widely as he reads the news about Luffy's appearance in Marineford. He has changed the war, but Luffy still came there with the same setting. It makes him wonder if some things really can't be changed.

"Well, let's see if nothing will change in your 2 years of training. I will make sure that everything will change before your comeback."

Sometime after that, Buggy calls Cricket.

"How's the situation in New World?"

<It's still stable now and we've taken control of things here. The Marines and World Government are still busy with the after-effects of war. After all, it wasn't just Marineford, but Marie Goise was also attacked and damaged. Furthermore, the incident in Impel Down will need a lot of attention too. They have too many things on their hands now, so they can't control New World. It makes things easier for us without their disturbance. The pirates in New World are getting restless, but we've handled them easily together with the other Emperor Crews.>

"Why does it sound like we can handle New World problems better than the Marines and World Government?"

<We are. It has just been a few days, but we've managed to suppress the arising problems caused by the war. Sigh, we are Marine's and World Government's enemies, but we actually took care of their problems. We should ask for some compensation from them.>

"We will get it soon. Start preparing after these problems are settled. I will return in a few weeks after solving the problems in East Blue."

Buggy hangs up before he goes out of his house and goes to the port. His ship isn't there because his crewmates who came here with him are using the ship to go around East Blue. They are destroying pirate crews that are causing trouble everywhere after the war because they were too motivated by the news of One Piece.
