Chapter 66
Not to mention the ups and downs of the world, Buggy was floating in the air at this time, and under his feet was a Celestial Dragon tied to a cross. With a smile on his face, he felt invincible.
"Many people are curious about why I chose to execute Celestial Dragons on such an ordinary day. Perhaps many have forgotten what today represents for us, the Roger Pirates."
Buggy raised his index finger and shook it.
"It may be an ordinary day for each of you, but it has a special meaning for me.
I still remember the day when Captain Roger came back from Raftel and told us, 'Our adventure is over; this is the end of Roger's Pirates; starting today, Roger's Pirates will be disbanded.' I was shocked at that moment.
In my heart, the invincible Roger Pirates 'died' on that day. It wasn't just me; no one thought of it.
I know many of you are curious about Raftel. Does it have the treasure that can turn the world upside down?"
Having said that, Buggy paused, blinked at the camera, and smirked.
"I won't tell you."
People all over the world who were staring at the live broadcast screen were taken aback when they heard him suddenly say this!
There were bursts of roars from countless live broadcast locations. The roar from Cake Island was the loudest! Even the Supernovas all over the New World were cursing a lot.
The redhead laughed while holding his stomach, and Hawkeye couldn't help but touch his forehead. Many people were gnashing their teeth at Buggy.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I don't know.
Buggy shook his head with an exclamation, "Maybe it's luck or fate? The day before Captain Roger left for Raftel, I fell seriously ill. Shanks chose to stay to take care of me. Although I never said it, I always remember his friendship in my heart. How many friends in the world would choose your friend over the Raftel and choose to stay and take care of their friends?"
"Shanks did it. That's why I have always respected him."
Shanks, who was still laughing nonstop on his territory, was stunned when he heard Buggy's words, and a glint of anger appeared in his eyes.
"Buggy, you bastard!"
People watching the live broadcast were also shocked. Shanks chose to take care of his seriously ill friend instead of going to Raftel!
Shanks is a true man!
Almost everyone watching the live broadcast reached this consensus.
"Why am I saying this today?"
Buggy said solemnly, "Because today is the anniversary of the death of the Pirate King, and it also marks the beginning of my journey down another road. So, I decided to pay my last respects to the 'Roger Pirates' today. From this day on, I will no longer be a member of the Roger Pirates, and I will pave my way to become a king!"
"Ever since I stepped aboard the Oro Jackson, my dream was to become the King of the Pirates! But on that day in Logue Town twenty years ago, I witnessed the fall of greatness. The Pirate King Gol D. Roger died with a smile on his face."
As soon as Buggy's words came out, it was like a terrible storm engulfed the world, and everyone was stunned!
Everyone was holding their heads, unable to believe what they had just heard.
"Yes, you heard me right."
Buggy smiled.
"Even if he didn't surrender, the captain was not far from death because of an incurable disease. So, he chose the most remarkable way to start another era!"
"This era is called the era of the Great Pirates! For the world, the era of the Great Pirates is full of chaos, fear, blood, and fire. I do not deny this."
"But for this world, which has been imprisoned by the World Government for eight hundred years, with divisions in all four seas and the Grand Line, what he brought was freedom, hope, and inspiration!"
"You all are not only divided by seas but also by Race."
"Faced with the feats of Gol D. Roger, I asked myself countless times, 'How can I become greater than my captain?'"
"I finally had the answer. This answer made my dream come true. Yes, I have a dream."
Having said that, Buggy fell silent for a few seconds.
For countless people, these few seconds felt like an eternity. What Buggy said today would become another banner of the new era!
What does this man want?
What is his dream?
"I heard that eight hundred years ago, there was no World Government, no Celestial Dragons, no Noble Puppets, and no upright marines who were dogs of World Nobles and unscrupulous slave traders!"
"In that era, harmony, equality, freedom, and prosperity were like a bright torch for people! However, today, eight hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that we are not free, we are not equal, and we are not rich and powerful."
"Friends, today I say to you: past, present, and future. Although we have faced all kinds of difficulties and setbacks, I still have a dream! I dream that one day I will connect all four seas and the grand line."
"I have a dream that one day we all will be able to visit the Red Line, or even the holy Marygeoise, from the perspective of ordinary people and marvel at its history. I dream that one day there will be no more slave trade in the world and children can get the education!"
"I dream that one day any race can talk and live happily together, and the world will no longer have racial discrimination.
I dream that one day, our future will be able to provide for the old, the strong, and the young, and the old and disabled will all be supported!
This is the dream I want to realize."
This might seem nonsense but for those war-torn families and the people living in the dark ages. This is like the Gospel.
The world seemed to pause at this moment.
Everyone was shocked by these words.
It was unimaginable how much impact these words had on people in this era when the flames of freedom were rising but thoughts were being imprisoned!
Everyone seemed to be immersed in the world that Buggy had woven.
What a great, incredible dream!
Is this really what a pirate said?
Countless people were deeply shocked by it.
Even hearing Whitebeard say that "One Piece is real" during the Summit War was not as shocking as what Buggy said today!
Holy Land Mariejois.
The Five Elders were so shocked by these words that their bodies trembled!
For some reason, at this moment, they felt a biting chill suddenly rising from the world. This chill seemed to surround and devour them.
They didn't immediately understand what Buggy meant when he said these words. Especially when a pirate said these things, it seemed particularly ridiculous!
However, no one could laugh!
Charlotte Linlin, Kaido, Shanks, Silvers Rayleigh, Blackbeard, and the Supernovas—all of them looked serious and dignified at the moment.
Everyone looked at the face of the clown makeup in the live broadcast, and they felt that the slightly raised smile of the clown makeup seemed to be mocking everyone in the world.
"This is a Clown's dream!"
Just when everyone was immersed in shock, Buggy's voice brought them back to reality.
"But I know that dreams are just dreams.
How can it be possible to realize this dream in an era when the class has long been established and there are descendants of the creators and gods standing on top of my head?
I don't know if my idea will work. But I know that if you want to realize your dream, you need to take this first step!"
Having said that, the corners of Buggy's mouth gradually raised, and he grinned, gradually revealing a touch of madness.
"For this step, let's pull the Celestial Dragons off the top first!"
The world boiled.
Buggy didn't stop there.
"As we all know, whenever someone is killed, they die. Celestial Dragons, too. They will fear, despair, be abused, and beg for mercy! Of course, those of you who watched the live broadcast may not have seen it. So, today I will let you have a look. The so-called Celestial Dragons; their blood is also red!"
Snap!
While talking, Buggy snapped his fingers.
Then, the strip of cloth in Saint Charmarco's mouth below shattered and disappeared.
"Please let me go; don't imprison me in the darkroom! I'm going crazy!"
"I'm a Celestial Dragon, my name is Saint Charmaco, and I have a lot of money!"
"I still have many beautiful women! As long as you want, I can give them to you!"
"Women don't want it? What about Devil's Fruit? I still have a lot of Devil Fruits!"
"Please, I haven't eaten for two days; I'm starving to death; please give me something to eat!"
The viewers watching the live broadcast saw the Celestial Dragon named St. Charmaco wailing, begging for mercy, and terrified. At this moment, they seemed to have something broken in their hearts.
It seems that something rises from the bottom of their hearts again!
Could the Celestial Dragons be begging like this?
Is this the Descendant of Gods who take money from them for protection?
Is this the descendant of God for whom a Marine Admiral will step up to stand for them as soon as they are harmed?
"A sad world."
Buggy spoke to everyone's heart at this moment. There is such a group of people above their heads!
What a sad world!
Such a world should simply be destroyed!
A figure suddenly appeared in the pyramid made of yellow sand below, and then the yellow sand lifted the man high into the sky, holding a long knife in his hand, and he came to the side of the Celestial Dragon.
At this moment, the watching people in the world became quiet again.
Everyone held their breath!
They are all looking forward to something happening. Some people are familiar with that man.
It's Sand Crocodile! Former Shichibukai.
He became Buggy's subordinate after the Summit War!
At this time, Crocodile looked solemn, and the cloak behind him was rattling. After two seconds of concentration, he looked in the direction of the camera and said with a grin, "Today we shall kill a fake God!"
Almost at the same time, a golden light flew from the distant sky at a terrifying speed, and his figure arrived hundreds of meters in front of the pyramid in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this figure, all the people who watched the live broadcast were shocked.
No one will be unfamiliar with this person!
He is today's Marine Admiral, the world's top combat power, and The Borsalino—Kizaru!
"Yata no Kagami!"
"God's Judgment!"
Scoff!
Almost at the moment when Kizaru made a move, everyone saw that the figure of the man with the long golden stick sitting on the high-backed chair on the second floor of the pyramid turned into a flash of lightning.
Then disappeared in place.
When it appeared again, it was already one meter away from Kizaru!
Chichichi!
Boom boom boom!
In the next second, the blue lightning exploded, instantly turning into a sea of thunder within a radius of hundreds of meters.
At the same time, The executioner, Crocodile, showed a grin without the slightest hesitation.
"Execute."
Scoff!
Blood splatters!
Head rolls off!
Celestial Dragon, Saint Charmarco, died!
Bright red blood was poured on the pyramid, and the eye-catching red pierced the eyes of all those who watched the live broadcast.
At that moment, the tender seedlings that had just sprouted in their hearts began to thrive under the watering of this handful of blood!
The world will change from now on!
And at the moment when Charmarco died, Buggy's momentum was also rising! This feeling appeared before when on Fishman Island he stunned a hundred thousand merfolk with one move.
Click!
Buggy clenched his right fist slightly, and lightning of platinum, black, and red intertwined danced on his fist!
Conqueror's Haki entanglement! Advanced Conqueror's Haki!
At this moment, Buggy felt an incomparably joyful feeling that he had finally broken through that limit!
Ding!
"Congratulations to Host [who completely changed the plot of Punk Hazard], won the Six Forms Grandmaster physical skill reward, and greatly improved physical fitness!"
Ding!
"Would you like to learn [Six Forms-Grandmaster] Physical Skill Experience Book?"
Learn!
Buggy growled in his heart, very satisfied with the appearance of the cheat at this moment.
He had become stronger again!
A master of the Six Styles!
Except for Conqueror's Haki, who had not reached the super level, his overall ability had fully reached the peak Four Emperors' level!
The shortcomings of physical fitness could be regarded as being made up for.
Even if he was not as durable as the mythical Zoan, he would not be limited in combat power due to his physical strength!
He didn't believe that anyone who could fight him one-on-one could last for a long time!
Just as Buggy was thinking about this, there was the sound of a dragon's roar from the sky in the distance.
First Kizaru, then Kaido, and after that?
Buggy returned to the high-backed chair at the top of the pyramid and sat down, crossed his hands on his knees, and looked straight ahead at the clouds in front of him.
As the dragon's chant sounded, Kaido's huge blue dragon body loomed in the sky.
"Worororo—"
A burst of laughter came from the clouds above the sky in front of them, and then everyone saw a huge black-haired dragon head with blue scales protruding from it, and this giant dragon also uttered:
"Buggy the Clown? Hahaha, after today, your title as the Clown Emperor will be changed to [God Slayer], as you said! Interesting, so interesting!"
"Kaido."
Buggy looked neither happy nor sad.
"Coming here at this moment, what are you doing?"
Four Emperors: Kaido!
People who watched the live broadcast didn't know who the dragon was at first and thought it was a mythical Dragon, but when they heard Buggy call out his identity, all the people who watched the live broadcast suddenly got excited.
Did the strongest creature in the world come out?
However, the shock for everyone had only just begun!
"Buggy! You bastard, you're crazy!"
In the distance, a small Marine warship flew in the sky, and its speed was extremely fast.
Although this was a small warship, the people standing at the bow, even the people watching the live broadcast, couldn't help but be shocked!
Admiral Sengoku!
Admiral Akainu!
Admiral Aokiji!
Among the world's government hidden troops, the two strongest were Fujitora and Green Bull!
Hiss!
With such a gathering of top combat power, is it possible that the title of God Slayer that Buggy just obtained today is about to be challenged here?
