After defeating the pirates, Buggy tie his boat to the ship and take off the pirate's flag. Then he sail the ship to Loguetown, because it's already close. Buggy check the ship while going to Loguetown and find a lot of money & valuables.
"Hmm, i need to hide these things, or the Marine will take them considering the total amount. If it's just so beri, then they won't care, but these things might worth more than 5 million."-Buggy
Buggy decide to hide the treasures & money first before going to Marine base. He'll just leave so treasures to not make it suspicious. Those marines will take these things if there's too much of it. They'll ignore it if the amount is small.
This is also why Buggy decide to not stay on Loguetown when he beca bounty hunter. That place is more dangerous and he can's save his money safely there. Also, he can't take the valuables he got from the pirates that he catch because the Marine will find it out.
After arriving on Polestar Island, Buggy go to an empty coast near the forest. He hide 90% of the valuables on the forest. He cut so trees & leaves to cover the valuables. He place it in a dark place where the trees & bushes block outsiders view.
After he finish, Buggy go to Loguetown with the pirate ship. Then like what he did in the past, Buggy pluck his nose and his left hand to cover his identity. He put his nose in a box, while his left hand in a bag that he carry.
Buggy then pull the pirates to the Marine base. So marines approach him and ask on why he pull so people on the ground, so he explain it. The marines let him go after knowing that he's pulling pirates and not innocents.
Buggy reach the Marine base and get inside base. He talk with the marine guards, and the marines imdiately take the pirates inside. Buggy wait for a mont before he is called to the Captain's office. The captain is a middle aged man nad Derek.
"Mr. Bob (Buggy's alias, his past life na), thank you for your help on capturing this pirate crew, and thank you for catching them alive. We prefer the target alive rather than dead even though the price is not different. Here's your money."-Derek place a case on his table
"Thanks."-Buggy
Buggy open the case and check the amount which is the right amount, 10 million. After confirming the money, Derek ask Buggy if there are treasures on the ship.
"There are so treasures, and i left them on the ship."-Buggy
"Then, i will send my ns to check if there are so wanted treasures. You'll get paid for it if we find so, and if not, you can save the treasures."-Derek
"I can save it?"-Buggy is actually surprised
"Yes, we only save the treasures from pirate crew that we defeat ourselves. If we take the treasures from a bounty hunter, then no one will want to be a bounty hunter again."-Derek said that, but Buggy won't believe it easily
"Well, that make sense. Ah, can i take the ship? That ship is not bad, altough it's rather small, but it's still better than a boat to travel around."-Buggy
"Sure, we will sink it anyways because it's useless."-Derek
"Ok, thanks."-Buggy
Buggy then leave the base and go to a restaurant. He want to rest & fill his stomach before he return to Orange town.
"Hmm, should i return now though? It's just so hours after i leave, and now i want to return? Hmm, maybe i'll stay here for a week & hunt pirates around this area."-Buggy
Buggy decide to stay for a week and hunt pirates that want to go to Grandline. They won't make it in Grandline after all, so it's better to stop them here.
"I don't rember any big pirates from East Blue that wil rise around these years, so it's better to stop them from killing themselves there. Sigh, how kindhearted of to stop people from killing themselves."-Buggy
"What are you mumbling on, boy?"-Waiter
"Eh? Nothing, don't mind !"-Buggy
Buggy then go to the pirate ship after he's full. The marine didn't found any wanted items there and leave all of it to Buggy. Still, Buggy know they took a very little amount to not make him suspicious. He ignore it and start to remodel the ship.
Buggy remove the old sail that have a pirate logo and replace it with a plain white sail. Then he hire a shipwright to fix so broken parts. He throw away so furniture, as they're really dirty. Pirates usually don't wash themselves for days, so the ship is really stink & dirty. That's why Buggy spend 2 days just to clean the ship.
"*pant pant* The first rule in my crew will be for everyone to wash themselves everyday, and clean the ship everyday too."-Buggy said while panting on the floor.
Buggy want a hygiene crew, even if it will need a lot of water. He doesn't want people to call his crew 'filthy pirates' in literal aning.
"I need to find water filter machine for my ship. At least i need to filter the seawater to bathwater."-Buggy
Buggy make a wishlist, then he go to sleep. He's really tired after cleaning all parts of the ship.
The next day, Buggy find a pirate ship is leaving Loguetown. The ship dock rather far from the port, but they'll be seen when leaving the island. Buggy use his scope to see the jolly roger, and the pirate crew is worth 20 million. 15 million for the captain, and 5 million for vice captain.
"2 bounties, should i take it? Hmm, whatever, let's risk it!"-Buggy
Buggy imdiately chase the pirate ship with his new ship. His ship is a caravel, and it can move fast with it's small size. The enemy's ship is rather big, and it move slower, so Buggy can chase them rather fast.
"Captain, there's a ship coming to us."-Pirate scout
"Is it Marine?"-Pirate Captain
"No, it's a normal ship without any flag."-Purate scout
"What?"-Pirate Captain
The captain go to the railing and see Buggy's ship is approaching them fast.
"That ship seem familiar."-Pirate Captain
"If i'm not wrong, then that's the Ostrich pirates' ship. I heard they were caught by a bounty hunter and have been sent to Marine."-Pirate Vice-Captain
"Then that must be the bounty hunter using their ship."-Pirate Captain
"What should we do, Captain? We'll fight them?"-Pirate Vice Captain
"No, this is still close to Loguetown, so Marine can co here anyti. Let's just repell them and leave!"-Pirate Captain
""AYE AYE!""-Pirates
When Buggy almost reach the pirate ship, they start to shoot their cannons. These guys didn't want to wait and attack imdiately. Buggy try to manouver his ship to avoid the cannon balls. There's no way he'll let his new ship break.
"Shit, i can't fight them back while controlling the ship."-Buggy
Buggy can't get close, and it make the pirate crew succeed to get away. If he have a helmsman and shooter, then he will be able to get close and attack that ship. Buggy is frustated on his first lost. He doesn't fight face to face, but naval battle is still a battle, and he lost.
"Tsk, i really need so companions."-Buggy
