Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 328: A Message

Sengoku & Garp's defeats are big surprises for the Marine. Buggy defeated both of them alone simultaneously. Furthermore, he did it after killing Sakazuki and defeated Kuzan & Borsalino before that too.

"So this is what he meant by a real monster. Surely I can't see him as anything other than a monster now. He's a monster scarier than Roger or even Whitebeard," says Tsuru.

"That much?!" says Gion in surprise.

"Of course, that much. He is still young, but he can defeat both Sengoku & Garp without much effort. How strong do you think he'll get when he grows older?" asks Tsuru.

Gion realizes it and Buggy will certainly be a very scary foe.

'I just hope that he will be more like Roger and Whitebeard in personality. At least both of them are not cruel despite being lawless pirates, so we won't need to worry about his crew massacring people. It will be a lot more troublesome if he becomes like Big Mom, Kaido, Shiki, or worse, Rocks. We aren't ready yet for the rise of another Rocks,' thinks Tsuru.

Tsuru looks at Buggy who gathers some small cubes that float around him. The cubes then form into an arm which surprises Tsuru. She looks back at Garp who crashed onto the broken ship and sees that he lost his right arm now even though he doesn't bleed there because it wasn't caused by a normal cut.

He is looking at Buggy very seriously now as he stands slowly on the floating scraps. Garp can feel his arm that floats in front of Buggy, but he can't control it. So he just stands there looking at Buggy without saying a word.

"Garp, you have spared my life once, so I will spare yours now to make it even. But there will be no next time, for you and everybody here. Just mind your own business and don't disturb my adventure. Although I'm sure you won't listen. Don't blame me for what happened next though," says Buggy as he throws the arm to Garp's assistant.

Buggy turns around and the Marine doesn't even try to stop him as he flies slowly to his ship. Then he suddenly stops and turns back to the Marine, making them nervous.

"Oh right, I want you to send a message for me, you Celestial Dragons' dogs. Tell those 5 old shits on Mary Geoise that they better not f*ck around with me. If they even try something funny, then it will be the last thing they'll ever do. I don't care if they send more people to entertain us. But if they go after our people, then just know that I will make that throne really empty," says Buggy with an intimidating voice.

The Marine officers don't know the full meaning of Buggy's words. They just know that he wants Gorosei to not go after his people, his family. But they don't know anything about making the throne empty.

Buggy then goes back to his ship and detaches his right hand before reaching the ship. He uses his detached hand to punch the ice that is still stuck around the ship. It seems like a weak punch, but it breaks all the ice and frees the ship.

The Clown Pirates then leave the location under the frustrated Marine's watch. There's nothing the Marine can do after their strongest forces get defeated. They are lucky that Buggy didn't destroy Sengoku's ship too so they can at least go back now.

"Tsk, it's our loss, a complete loss. No one was expecting this kind of result. Save anyone you can save, we'll go back immediately and try to control the situation," orders Tsuru.

The Marine officers do as she says and they immediately go back. Sengoku has his body getting attached and so is Garp's arm. They are now sitting in a room together with the remaining Vice-Admirals without an ounce of happiness after their bodies get put together.

"That power, can anything stop it?" asks Sengoku.

"What do you think? It could even cut through my advanced level Haki that can block Whitebeard's power. That kid's power is something beyond anything we've ever seen," says Garp.

Sengoku holds his head in frustration because he knows that no one will be able to stop Buggy after some years. He is still young, so he will grow even stronger. With his growth rate, he will surely be stronger than Whitebeard in all aspects.

"The kid is still not too strong physically and his Armament Haki is still not as strong as mine. But his Conqueror Haki is already on par with Roger and his devil fruit abilities may have surpassed Whitebeard," says Garp seriously.

"Those are scary, but the scarier one is his age. He is still young and he is not even at his peak yet. When he reaches his peak in 20 years or so, no one will be able to stop him. Nothing can stop him even if all Marine & Pirates work together," says Tsuru.

Their expressions turn grim as they can imagine such a scenario. But then Borsalino changes the topic, "He said a few sentences before he left. What should we do with that?"

"We will say it as it is to Kong-san and the 5 elders. I don't know what they'll do but I know that I don't want to mess with him. His message was clear. He knows we know about his family and he warned us to not endanger his family," says Sengoku.

"I will never even try if I am the 5 elders. There's no one scarier than someone who doesn't have anything to lose," says Tsuru.

"Sigh, I don't want to do it either, but we can only do it if an order comes," says Sengoku.

"Damn, so troublesome, I wish I have freedom like those pirates now," says Garp nonchalantly before getting a hit in the head by Sengoku.

Both of them start to bicker, as usual, making the others sigh. They leave the 2 and check on their men. Many have died in the war and only 169 people survived from thousands. And most of their casualties were caused by Buggy alone.

"I really don't want to mess with him again," says Borsalino while touching the scar on his chest.

Right now, the Clown Pirates are having a party after they won. Buggy wants to light up the mood after the unpleasant war.

"Would it be okay?" asks Cricket.

"What do you mean?" asks Buggy back.

"I mean threatening them like that," says Cricket.

"Oh, I'm sure it'll be fine. They know what's better for them. Those guys will think that keeping my family and your families alive is the best thing to do. That way, they can use them to threaten us anytime they need it. If our families die, they will lose valuable bargaining chips," says Buggy.

"Hmm, that's certainly logical although it sounds heartless," says Manba.

"What do you mean heartless? That's the best thing to do in this situation. To fight heartless people like those 5 Elders and Celestial Dragons, we also need to act like that. They know our weaknesses are our loved ones, so they'll use them against us. That's why we need to show them that we know what they'll do and what we'll do if they do that," says Palu.

"Well, I also think it's the best thing to do. But what did you mean by the empty throne in your message?" asks Deon.

Buggy looks at their curious gaze and decides to tell them. "Listen, this will just stay among us. Don't tell anyone who doesn't hear it directly from me, even the crew members. You know that the 20 Kingdoms that found the World Government made an empty throne on Mary Geoise to show equality between them all, right? Well, what if it's not true? What if someone is actually ruling the world on that throne?"

The executives widen their eyes in surprise at such a ridiculous story. But they all know it's the truth when they see Buggy's serious eyes.

"So there's actually someone who rules the world through the World Government? Holy bones," says Brook with widened eye sockets.

"And who is the one sitting on that throne? A Celestial Dragon? One of the elders?" asks Cricket.

"I don't know. But it doesn't change the fact that the person is very dangerous. This fact will also shake the whole world if it's known, so be quiet," says Buggy.

They all nod as they know how dangerous it will be if they spread the information. Buggy told them because he believes them and he used it as a message to threaten the WG. If the 5 elders want him to stay silent, then they know better than to mess with his family.
