Yes, Indeed, I'm the Legendary Buggy!

Chapter's Events:

—————————

"Tenth Division Commander Curiel!! If you intend to fight me, then I will simply crush you..."

"But your death is already certain as long as you remain in this bay! Kishishishishi!! Ace will die!! And you will all be trapped like rats and exterminated!!"

Moria planned to shatter the morale of his enemy, one of the Whitebeard Pirates commanders, with those words.

"I care little which side prevails here. But witnessing Whitebeard's death will be a treat indeed!!!"

Moria continued with his nonsense.

"I will not let neither the old man nor Ace go to their deaths!!!" exclaimed Curiel, firing his pistols at Moria.

...

On the other hand, Mihawk and Vista were still exchanging sword blows.

"Let us postpone this match for the moment, Vista," said Mihawk calmly.

"That would seem to be most advantageous to both of us!!" replied Vista with a big smile on his face.

...

"Smoker-san! This place is..."

In another part of the battlefield, Tashigi ran up to Smoker, warning him about something.

"I'm quite aware!!!" said Smoker.

"Luffy...!! You must hurry and save your brother...!" With a worried expression, Hancock encouraged Luffy in her heart.

Inside the Central Prison on Hunters Island:

"Huh? Tenth division commander Cruel? Who is this bastard? Seriously? Is he planning to fight me with guns?"

"I am the Shadow Monarch. Do you think these childish toys are enough to challenge me? Kishishishishi! Will the commanders of Whitebeard's pirates really become weak like this in the future?"

Moria was enjoying this moment, being attacked by one of the famous eight commanders in Whitebeard's crew using guns! Even though they were large in size, it was still not enough for him.

"Jihahaha! What if he can imbue his bullets with Haki? I don't think any of Newgate's commanders don't know how to do that. Maybe you won't say that at that time."

The Golden Lion Shiki mocked Moria's ignorance.

"And seriously, do you really think you're the Shadow Monarch? Jihahahahah! You must be crazier than me...!"

Shiki added insult to injury.

"You…!"

Veins popped on Moria's forehead. He wanted to curse the old rascal and show him his power in freely manipulating shadows, but he remembered the constant kicks he was receiving and swallowed his grievances.

"Hehe~ How annoying... you bug."

Shiki lost interest in Moria and looked back at the manga.

His attention was drawn to the ongoing battle between the swordsmen Mihawk and Vista.

His disappointment was short-lived as they ended it by mutual agreement soon after.

"These scoundrels... What kind of sword fight is this? It's clear you don't want to fight in the first place!"

"Aren't you the strongest swordsman in the world? Heh! Then why can a random swordsman stop you from achieving what you want, and it seems he succeeded easily, Jiahahaha!"

Shiki mocked Mihawk, who was the one who initiated stopping the fight.

…

East Blue, Loguetown:

"Here you go, young man. This strawberry juice is much better than alcohol for someone your age."

At the art store, Raoul, the waiter Rob once hired here, placed a drink on young Smoker's table.

"I'm not a kid! I'm already 14, old man!"

Smoker seemed displeased with being called a child but took the strawberry juice and drank it with a tipsy expression.

"Hahaha! Alright, alright, fair enough."

Raoul returned to his work, leaving Smoker to enjoy his drink.

"That bastard... he tricked me..."

Smoker felt embarrassed after Raoul left. He had just boasted that he wasn't a child, yet he enjoyed drinking strawberry juice instead of alcohol.

Smoker knew Raoul, well, everyone knew Raoul because after all, this man had a background in the manga, appearing in the Loguetown arc and meeting Luffy, and he had a certain connection with Roger in the past.

Smoker forgot about Raoul in the next moment as he was drawn back into the events of the manga.

"Hmm? What did Tashigi mean by 'This place is...' is what?"

"Or rather, what's the deal with this girl who appears everywhere my counterpart appears... Are they really... together...?"

Smoker felt embarrassed thinking about that.

After all, there are many theories that Smoker and Tashigi have a deeper relationship than leader and follower.

"Have all the visuals been cut!!?"

Sengoku asked on the execution platform, referring to what had been ordered earlier.

"Not yet!! It will only be a little longer!!" The soldier replied nervously.

…

"Only one of the screens is still working!! What are those voices saying!?"

In the Sabaody Archipelago, the audience felt astonished by the sudden change.

{Ahh!! That figure over there… Could it be…!!?}

This voice came from the screen that was still transmitting audio and video.

…

"What exactly is the delay!!? Hurry it up!!!"

Sengoku lost his composure upon hearing that.

…

In the Sabaody Archipelago, on the screen that was still functioning, a figure appeared with his back to the audience, wearing an elaborate Marine officer's uniform but with an X mark over the Marine logo.

{Is it really him!? The man who was concealing his true identity until recently…}

{Who actually once sailed upon the ship of Pirate King Gold Roger as a member of that legendary crew!!?}

Viewers could hear the astonishment and shock in the speaker's tone.

{Could it be… That pirate of pirates, Captain Buggy The Clown!!?}

{"Hmm?"}

{"Well, sure… That's me!"}

‏"Huh!?"

Buggy's face appeared on the screen with a bleeding nose and a missing tooth, completely shattering the viewers' imagination about the legendary pirate.

{"I thought the fact that I'm a legendary pirate was supposed to be a secret, though…"} said Buggy.

{Whoa, Whoa, Captain Buggy!! Your nose is bleeding! Your face!! Wipe your face!! Let's try this again… Take 2!!}

…

"I AM TELLING YOU CUT ALL VISUALS RIGHT NOW!!"

"WE CANNOT PROCEED TO THE NEXT STAGE OF THE OPERATION UNTIL YOU DO!!!"

Sengoku completely lost his composure upon hearing that cutting off the broadcast entirely was not possible.

"Well, the thing is… one of the visual den den mushi has been stolen by the escaped convicts from Impel Down!!" the soldier hesitantly explained.

"WHAT!!?" exclaimed Sengoku.

•———•———•———•———•

"Bffft… Hahahahahaha!!!"

"Hahahahaha!!!"

"Hahahahaha!! I'm dying! This is hilarious!"

"Hahahaha!!! Oh my god! Hahaha!! Buggy did it again!"

"Ahahahaha!! Look at his face! His nose is bleeding! Hahahaha!!!"

"These escaped prisoners are completely foolish, Hahahaha!!! They're causing so much trouble for the Marines!"

"Hahahaha! Look at the expressions of the crowd, as if they're wondering where this clown came from? Weren't they just watching a bloody war? Why suddenly a comedy show? Hahahaha!!!"

"Hahaha! I can't stop laughing! My stomach hurts! The way they did this scene is extremely funny!"

In the art store in Baterilla, Shanks was holding his stomach and wiping tears from laughing so hard at this moment because of Buggy's scene.

The moment he saw how Buggy's face looked when he said for the first time {"Well, sure… That's me!"}, he sprayed everything in his mouth, whether food or drink!

It wasn't just him; even Rayleigh couldn't hold himself as he laughed until his stomach hurt.

Gaban, Crocus who happened to return to sailing with them, Nozdon, Fishman Sunbell, Spencer, and all of Roger's crew, both old members and newly joined ones, were all laughing hard at this moment, just like the other residents of Baterilla.

Buggy smiled after seeing the laughter fit caused by his counterpart, "Hahahaha!!" then he laughed too because he found that what his counterpart did, stealing the visual den den mushi and using it for show-off and spreading a semi-fake reputation to the world, was indeed a very funny act.
