The Accidental Buggy Ball Incident
The Florian Triangle.
This legendary sea, shrouded in layers of mist all day long, is the forbidden sea of legend.
Countless terrifying stories about ghosts and ghost ships are closely associated with this sea area.
The number of viewers on the [Buggy the Great Treasure Hunter] live stream channel has once again surpassed 500,000.
This isn't an inflated number; it's the actual number of viewers who are right now, intently watching Buggy's performance on their screens.
The unparalleled powerhouse of the sea, the Fifth Emperor, will personally explore this sea area, satisfying the curiosity and thrill-seeking instincts of the common people.
Buggy's shiny Red Nose sparkled brightly in front of the camera.
Although his lower body was trembling incessantly, he had already moved it to a place out of the camera's view.
Buggy spoke fluently to the camera.
"Everyone should believe in the power of science. There are no demons or monsters in this world!"
"As everyone knows, Shanks has accomplished a little something at sea, but his abilities are nothing compared to mine."
"Thanks to Buggy for still being stubborn and sending the plane, thanks to Bucky for still being stubborn."
"This young boss's ID is really lacking in spirit. Back in the day, Shanks and I, under Captain Roger's leadership, ventured into plenty of haunted places like this!"
"Every time, Shanks gets so scared he wets his pants, and then I, Buggy, have to carry him back myself!"
"Thanks to Laboon's guardians for sending a big rocket!"
"Look at this Laboon's guardian, he's clearly a knowledgeable person. Only a smart person can see Shanks' weakness and my strength at a glance!"
Animal trainer Mohji and entertainer Cabaji carried lights and fill lights to ensure that Buggy's image was full and tall.
Mohji couldn't help but mutter a complaint under his breath, "If I had known, I shouldn't have chosen a lion as my pet. If it were a panda, I would be like Alvida now, no longer having to do this kind of physical labor."
Cabaji sighed, "I did try performing balance bike and knife throwing tricks on my livestream, but it didn't get any viewers. I really don't know what those viewers are thinking; they'd rather watch that fat woman, Alvida, selling lipsticks..."
"Well, their bounty is higher!"
Mohji, who had no idea how to navigate the livestream, blamed the failure of his stream on his low reward.
"If we could also have a bounty of tens of millions, maybe the audience would be more willing to pay..."
While admiring the shipwreck and human bones, Ma Qiao sincerely suggested, "Young men, I know an internet celebrity named Lao Ba. His path to fame has no barriers; perhaps you should give it a try."
Just as Ma Qiao was suggesting the two young men take a shortcut, Richie the Lion suddenly pushed a cannon towards them.
Originally, Buggy planned to demonstrate the power of the Buggy Ball to the audience, proving that there are no monsters or demons in the world and that science is the true power.
He pointed to a huge, eerie-looking, stranded ship:
"If someone were a coward, they would definitely think this ship was a ghost ship."
"However, today I'm going to demonstrate to everyone how to bombard a ghost ship!"
Buggy laughed heartily.
Except for his left hand holding the phone, the rest of his upper body floated behind the cannon.
With all his might, Lion Richie shoved a Buggy Ball, about forty centimeters in diameter, into the cannon barrel.
This was Ma Qiao's first time seeing the legendary Buggy Ball, and he was very excited.
Although it was an old-fashioned muzzle-loading cannon, its power was far more terrifying than the Hongyi Cannon, which could "destroy dozens of miles with a single shot".
If our Ming Dynasty had Buggy Ball, we would truly be invincible!
Meanwhile, as the scenery became very similar to Onigashima after entering the Florian Triangle, Yamato, who had been feeling down, finally perked up.
"Brother Ma Qiao, tell me, which is more powerful, this shell or the bomb on my wrist?"
"Well... your father is a sea emperor, and so is Buggy, but your father's bomb-making is just an amateur, while the Buggy Ball is Buggy's brainchild, so clearly Buggy is the better one!"
As if to confirm what Ma Qiao had said, Buggy prepared to ignite the weapon while reciting the absurd parameters of the Buggy Ball.
A single Buggy Ball could destroy half a city.
Even the Four Emperors couldn't withstand the power of three Buggy Ball.
The live stream was filled with exclamations of amazement.
"Buggy already possesses strength surpassing Red-Haired Shanks, and coupled with such a terrifying bomb..."
"As expected, the strongest Emperor of the Sea is Lord Buggy!"
Seeing comments like these, Buggy was smug.
The camera then panned to the dilapidated so-called ghost ship.
"Now comes the moment to witness a miracle!"
Buggy yelled Ignite the fuse.
"Hehehe~"
"It's been so many years! We actually have guests today!"
Suddenly, a skeleton with an afro appeared on the ghost ship.
Holding a steaming cup of black tea in one hand and removing his top hat with the other, he greeted the crowd with great gentlemanly manners.
"Hey lady with the spiked club, can I take a look at your underwear?"
"Abnormal!"
On the other side of the deck, out of the camera's view, Alvida screamed.
Yamato, leaning on his spiked club with one hand and picking his nose with the other, said, "That's quite a unique way to greet someone."
She turned her head and said, "Brother Ma Qiao, can I see your underwear?"
State!
Ma Qiao jumped up Yamato smacked Yamato on the head. "You learn the bad things so quickly, but you don't learn the good ones! As your teacher, it breaks my heart!"
Yamato covered his head, muttering, "I've seen all sorts of magical artifacts before. All I'm wearing today is that cartoon penguin underwear..."
Compared to the more oblivious Ma Qiao and Yamato, Buggy and his friends looked like they'd seen a ghost.
Or rather, it was like seeing a ghost!
"A ghost!"
"A talking skeleton!"
Buggy yelled, his hand slipped, and the cannon barrel veered off course at a large angle.
Boom!
As it turns out, Buggy wasn't exaggerating.
A giant mushroom cloud burst open on the sea surface.
The skeleton holding the red tea, which was Brook, was so frightened that his head separated from his cervical spine.
"This is absolutely terrifying, even though I've already died once, hohoho..."
At this moment, no one cares about the power of the Buggy Ball.
The viewers in the live stream were frantically spamming comments about the talking skeleton.
After all, this is the man who could drive Charlotte Linlin crazy.
As for "Soul King," they are a phenomenal rock band beloved by countless music fans.
Ma Qiao looked at Brook and thought, "That's not just a skeleton; it's a walking money-printing machine!"
Of course, Brook doesn't seem to like being a rock star; he'd much rather adventure with his Straw Hat Pirates.
However, whether the Straw Hat Pirates can even leave the East Blue is still a question, so Brook, being an old man, naturally doesn't have that kind of worry.
Just as Ma Qiao was considering how to find Brook while preventing this skeletal old pervert from harassing his lovely students, a hysterical roar suddenly rang out from afar.
"Moria, have you lost your mind? You even dare to scheme against me!"
"Fufu!"
"The World Government previously said you had lost your ambition and should be removed from the list of the Shichibukai!"
"I never expected you to be the lizard hiding in the shadows, daring to attack me, a fellow member of the Shichibukai, trying to steal this batch of weapons and equipment?"
"This joke isn't funny... You'd better be prepared!"
In the direction where the Buggy Ball had exploded, a wrecked pirate ship slowly emerged from the smoke.
The once proud Doflamingo emblem now has a broken neck, and the sails are riddled with holes and covered in traces of gunpowder.
Several figures were standing at the bow of the boat.
Even in the terrifying Florian Triangle, a place shrouded in darkness, Doflamingo still wore his signature red sunglasses.
However, the sunglasses lenses were already shattered by then.
His bright pink feather coat and tight jeans were both riddled with holes.
The only thing that remained unchanged was that, after a brief moment of anger, Doflamingo had reverted to his evil smile, which practically screamed "villain," and stood imposingly at the bow of the ship with his legs spread wide.
Behind him stood a slender young woman dressed in a maid outfit and wearing goggles. (See picture)
And a middle-aged man who was obese, wearing a pink baby hat, sucking on a pacifier, and wearing a yellow diaper with a star pattern. (See picture)
They were none other than Donquixote Family members baby-5 and Senor Pink Pica.
"Um?"
Just as the crew on the Going Buggy-senpai got a clear look at Doflamingo and his group on the Numancia Flamingo, Doflamingo finally saw who had fired at him.
For a moment, Doflamingo's expression was just as interesting as Buggy's.
The more arrogant Doflamingo is normally, the more cautious he becomes when facing Kaido and the other Four Emperors; you could even say he's extremely cautious.
In the original storyline, Law never considered defeating Doflamingo head-on.
His plan was to destroy Doflamingo's SMILE factory, thereby angering Doflamingo Kaido getting killed. Doflamingo himself had also admitted that angering Kaido would lead to his death.
Although Kaido cried his eyes out when he learned that Doflamingo had been captured, one should only take his drunken words with a grain of salt.
It can be said that in the world of One Piece, Doflamingo, who possesses a significant portion of the Celestial Dragons's aura, is not afraid of Marine Admirals like Fujitora, but he is wary of Four Emperors like Kaido, or former Admirals like Kuzan who have already defected from the Marines.
Now, as the saying goes, "a person's name casts a shadow," and Emperor Clown Buggy's popularity rivals that of the Four Emperors. He doesn't even care about humiliating the Celestial Dragons. How could Doflamingo not deeply fear such a figure?
Even disregarding Emperor Clown Buggy's unfathomable background, his bounty of 500 million Beli far exceeds Doflamingo's 340 million Beli.
Of course, since the bounty will not continue to accumulate after becoming Shichibukai, the bounty of 340 million Beli is relatively low. However, in Doflamingo's eyes, Emperor Clown Buggy is by no means undeserving of his reputation.
Otherwise, where would he get the audacity to defy the world, ignore the threat from the Marine Admiral, and harbor a wanted criminal who indirectly caused the death of Celestial Dragons?
Because of his former status Celestial Dragons, Doflamingo knew far more about the Saint Charlos incident in the Sabaody Archipelago than the outside world did.
Doflamingo even knew that Marine Admiral Kuzan was already on his way to kill Galtino.
"Emperor Clown Buggy, is either someone with extraordinary strength or a lawless Warmog's Armor acts without regard for the consequences. Either way, he's not someone to be trifled with."
A bead of cold sweat trickled down Doflamingo's forehead; he was already having second thoughts.
However, having already uttered those harsh words, and with the other side launching the first attack, it wouldn't be right to back down immediately.
I've been holding it in for ages.
Doflamingo's face flushed red, and he said fiercely, "Let's go, let's go settle the score with Moria!"
