Transcended as Lord Buggy - Chapter 509: Weak Ass Rookies
“WEAK! WEAK! TOO WEAK! ARE YOU GUYS REALLY THE BEST OF YOUR GENERATIONS? WHAT A JOKE! WEAKLINGS LIKE YOU ARE CONSIDERED STRONG? HAH!”
Buggy fights the remaining pirates on their ships using only martial arts. He still doesn’t use his sword and devil fruit ability at all. These rookies are just too weak for him.
Kid’s various metal attacks that he controls using his magnet are destroyed with mere punches and kicks by Buggy. Killer’s spinning swords can’t cut Buggy’s skin that gets coated with haki. But it’s still annoying, so Buggy grabs the spinning swords and breaks them.
Hawkins and Drake who attack from other sides also can’t do much. However, Hawkins gets more attacks than the others because of his power. Buggy uses more lethal attacks on Hawkins that would have killed him a few times already.
But Hawkins is still alive because his power allows him to replace his death with others. That’s why Buggy keeps using deadly attacks on Hawkins. He rips apart the guy’s straw body and makes small straw puppets fall out.
“That’s the 10th puppet, your 10th spare life, and should be the last. Now, show me a better struggle or you will die next.”
Buggy is grinning at Hawkins while blocking Drake’s Axe. Apoo is also attacking from afar using sounds to hit Buggy. His attacks are better than the others, but they are still not enough to truly injure Buggy’s body.
If it’s the other Emperors, then their attacks would give some damage like flesh wounds. But Buggy’s body has been trained harder than anyone and has surpassed all limitations through various methods.
Battles, training, and even science, he used them all. But the scientific methods weren’t something like genetic mutations. It was simply using science to find the ways for him to breakthrough the limits of his body by himself.
Of course, it was hard, but Buggy always worked harder than anyone else. The result is his current physique that may have surpassed all humans. He surpassed even Big Mom’s ridiculous physical traits.
None of these rookies here have the power to damage him. But he keeps fighting them as if they can injure him. Although he likes to mock & provoke them, Buggy never truly underestimates his opponents even if it’s an ant because he never knows if they might have something that can be his weakness.
It doesn’t take long for him to defeat every single rookie pirate on both alliances. But he doesn’t kill anyone and the most they get is broken bones. Killing them wouldn’t be interesting, after all.
“Hey, weaklings! Grow stronger and find me again to fight. I never killed weak people, so come to me after getting stronger and worthy to be killed by me.”
Buggy grins widely before he leaves using the smallest ship from one of the ships. He chooses to take a small ship because he takes their valuables and supplies. These are compensation for all the trouble they’ve caused him.
Then he goes to his original destination to meet with some people. He leaves the devastated rookies on their badly damaged ships that will need a lot of repairs. But they need to repair the damage themselves with any materials they have because Buggy looted most of their wealth.
When he arrives on the island, some people have waited for him at the port. Buggy has called this island’s Caribbean branch on his way here because he needs people to take care of the loot. These guys know what to do, so he leaves for the meeting place immediately.
“Seems like I’ve made you wait.”
“No worries, your men have told us what happened on your way here. Actually, we are curious about it.”
“We? It’s you who are curious about it. I want to start the discussion right away.”
“Come on, it must be a good story?”
“What’s good about a one-sided battle? It’s obvious that they couldn’t even scratch him.”
“HAHAHA! Well, Bege is right. Let’s talk about the important matter first before chitchatting as everyone is here already.”
The ones that Buggy meets are some famous pirates of younger generations. Capone ‘Gang’ Bege, ‘Overflowing’ Sasaki, Black Maria, Ulti, Page One, and Who’s Who. 5 of them were supposed to be Beasts Pirates’ Tobiroppo.
But as Beasts Pirates were destroyed by Clown Pirates 20 years ago, they never had the chance to be part of Beasts Pirates. Since he destroyed Beasts Pirates, Buggy had planned to take the strong members that were supposed to join Beasts Pirates, which means the 6 Tobiroppos were on his list.
The only exception is X-Drake as the guy is an Undercover Marine. It doesn’t bother him because these 5 are strong enough. But then he surprisingly got Bege after the guy fell in love and married Chiffon.
He doesn’t know how they met, but it isn’t a problem for him. Bege joined his fleet because Charlotte Pirates are Clown Pirates’ subordinate crew. He was ready to be Charlotte Pirates’ subordinate when marrying Chiffon, but Katakuri told him to pledge loyalty to Clown Pirates instead.
It’s a smart move from Katakuri because now the Charlotte Family’s position in Clown Pirates’ Fleet is stronger through Chiffon & Bege. Though Buggy is a little concerned about Bege because this guy dared to betray Big Mom in the story, so his loyalty might be fake.
“What do you mean everyone? Legen Pirates haven’t showed up at all.”
“Hmm? They’ve been here with you since the beginning though?”
Suddenly, 5 people appear out of thin air behind Buggy. Alan, Elen, Yamato, Jack, and a guy with a mask covering his left face are the ones that show up. They are Legend Pirates, Clown Pirates’ apprentices’ crew that is said to be as strong as an Emperor crew.
But they can’t be an Emperor crew because they don’t have a fleet with some subordinate crews. They don’t have any territory and the most important reason is they are Clown Pirates’ followers. A follower can’t be an Emperor, that’s the biggest reason.
But power-wise, they are powerful enough to be considered as an Emperor crew and Alan is as strong as an Emperor. He has fought Shanks & Whitebeard a few times these years and the last few matches ended as draws.
The same thing also happens to Katakuri who is now much stronger compared to himself in the series. He also fought Shanks & Whitebeard a few times after joining Clown Pirates and now he is on par with them. In the last match, he even almost defeated Whitebeard.
All those fights were duels from the beginning till the end. The result could be different if those were wars between crews instead of duels between Captains. Strategy would play a big role in the war, but power matters the most in duels.
That’s why their power is very well known in New World and Clown Pirates Fleet is also known as the Fleet of 3 Emperors. Only the strongest Emperor can lead such a Fleet and control the 2 individuals who have the power of Emperors.
The 6 pirates were looking forward to meet Alan & Legend Pirates because of that. They want to see the man who is equal to the Emperors and also the Strongest Man’s apprentice. Though they never thought he & his crewmates would appear like this.
‘They are right in front of me, but I can’t feel their presence even now, and it seems the others also can’t feel it. No wonder we couldn’t sense them at all when they were invisible before.’
‘But this invisibility, whose power is it? Those 4’s abilities are well known and they aren’t invisibility. That means it’s the masked man’s power.’
Just as the 6 thought, it is the masked man’s power. It was owned by Absalom, but Katakuri killed him 2 years ago after the Marineford war and Buggy’s men got the fruit last year. Katakuri killed Absalom along with Moria’s whole crew singlehandedly after he heard of what happened to Lola & her crew.
‘Too bad we still can’t find Shadow Shadow Fruit, but that’s not really matter.’
“Alright noobs, let’s start it. Time to make New World more interesting.”
