CP0 Strikes

In a certain area of East Blue Sea, a massive warship sails against the wind and waves.

An old man with gray hair was sitting cross-legged on the deck, fast asleep. A bubble was coming out of his nose, and his head was nodding. It was clear that he was sleeping very soundly.

At that moment, a man wearing a gray suit under his Justice Coat walked over.

"Vice Admiral Garp."

Smack

The bubble that had popped on the old man's nose burst, and he suddenly opened his eyes, saying incredulously, "Huh? He actually fell asleep?"

The man in the gray suit completely ignored his old boss's antics and said directly,

"CP0 has contacted us; they've spotted Sirius's group on Bariaria Island, Vulture wants us to go and meet them."

"Huh? At this time?"

The Marine Hero scratched his head in annoyance, saying with a displeased expression, "We're almost at Foosha Village, and I'd like to see my two adorable grandsons."

The man in the gray suit remained unmoved. "They went to find the Buggy Pirates; they should have met them by now."

Buggy? That Buggy the Clown?

Vice Admiral Garp's expression turned serious in an instant. "That kid seems to have been on Roger's ship before, right? He was with that Red-Haired Shanks."

"Did Black Wolf go to him to find out Roger's secret?"

What is Roger's secret?

Ancient Weapon!

The Final Island!

Poneglyph!

"This is truly a remarkable situation," Garp shook his head. "Let's change course, though it might be too late."

The warship turned.

"But Vice Admiral Garp, if Buggy the Clown is hiding such a secret, why hasn't the government taken action against him?"

"Who knows? We've never received such an order from above."

Bariaria Island.

Buggy was sweating profusely as he looked at the man blocking the door.

They arrived so quickly!

His men, who were following behind him, were equally panicked, their faces turning deathly pale.

"Black, Black Wolf!!"

The screams almost pierced the sky.

Sirius couldn't help but pick at his ears; it was incredibly noisy, especially that guy with the lion, playing a duet with his lion.

Buggy swallowed hard and shouted, "What do you think you're doing! Black Wolf, I'm not afraid of you!"

Being afraid inside is one thing, but showing it outwardly is another.

As expected of someone who's seen it all, he quickly regained his composure.

Don't get stage fright!

Since this bastard is after Captain Roger, we absolutely cannot embarrass the captain!

Buggy mustered his courage.

"Captain Buggy!"

The pirates behind him were moved to tears; they were all inspired by their captain's courage.

"How dare he loudly rebuke the Emperor Candidate! That's so cool!"

"That's right! So what if they're pirates from the New World! We'll fight them!"

The encouragement was a bit too much.

"Black Wolf may be Devil Fruit User, but Captain Buggy is also Devil Fruit User, so there's nothing to be afraid of!"

"As long as we follow Captain Buggy, we are invincible!"

Buggy's facial muscles trembled instantly.

What idiots are talking about!

Who wants to fight them!

This guy severed one of Zephyr's arms!

Fortunately, he had his back to his men, so apart from Sirius and the others, no one could see his expression.

Of course, there were some who understood the situation.

The lion keeper and the man carrying the wheelbarrow were both sweating profusely and trembling with fear.

"Are these guys idiots?" Jack couldn't help but ask.

Sirius, however, didn't care; in fact, he almost laughed.

What does Buggy do when he has nothing better to do? How did he manage to train his subordinates to be so outstanding?

"Won't you invite me in for a seat?" Sirius said with a smile.

"..."

Buggy blinked in surprise; his attitude was unexpectedly gentle.

"Hmph, come with me."

Buggy snorted coldly, turned around and went back to the palace, his attitude extremely indifferent.

"Stop being so arrogant, Black Wolf!"

One of the pirates scoffed, "Captain Buggy isn't afraid of you! Behave yourselves when you're on our turf!"

"That's right! You'll regret it if you anger Captain Buggy!"

Buggy stumbled.

The lion keeper simply rolled his eyes and fainted.

"Let them in right now!!!" Buggy practically gritted his teeth.

"These guys are so interesting."

As Yamato walked into the palace, he laughed heartily, "As expected of Buggy Jiro!"

"Who is Buggy Jiro?!"

Buggy roared, "If we have to say, then Shanks, that bastard, is Red Jiro—huh?"

He suddenly turned around, his expression freezing on his face.

Looking at Yamato in disbelief, he asked, "How did you know?"

"Can we sit down and talk about this?"

Sirius said with a smile.

Buggy quickly found a place for everyone to sit down, then asked with a serious expression,

"Black Wolf, what exactly is your purpose?"

This guy rarely shows this serious expression.

"It was an agreement."

"Sirius said with a smile."

"Agreement? What agreement?"

Sirius, "It's Shanks. He was too embarrassed to see you in person, so he asked me to tell you."

He actually misses you a lot.

Shanks!!??

Buggy paused for a moment, then instantly erupted in fury, "That bastard!! Who asked him to think about it?!"

"Huh? Aren't you a partner?"

Yamato asked doubtfully, "But Shanks said that you two had a good relationship back when you were on Roger's ship."

"Does Shanks refer to the Shanks the Red-Haired?"

"The captain and that Red-Haired were once partners?"

"Wait a minute! The important thing is that the captain actually served on the Pirate King's ship before!"

Buggy's men were so excited they lost all control.

"So the captain was hiding his true abilities!"

"No wonder Black Wolf came knocking on our door, and was so polite!"

It turns out their captain is a big shot too!

Buggy's lips twitched, but now was not the time to deal with these guys.

"Who's on good terms with that bastard!" Buggy roared angrily. "It's all that bastard's fault! He shattered my life's dream!"

"What?"

Yamato was shocked. "Is it really that serious?"

"Of course!"

Buggy gritted his teeth, "That bastard made me eat Devil Fruit and turn me into a landlubber! My dream of collecting all the treasures in the world is shattered!"

Yamato tilted his head. "But, Sirius and I are both Devil Fruit User, and the Pirate Emperor and the Marine Admiral are also Devil Fruit User, right?"

"Forehead..."

Buggy was speechless.

"The weak always like to make excuses for themselves," Jack scoffed. "Is this guy even from the Pirate King's ship?"

"Hey! You bastard!"

Buggy roared, "How dare you insult Captain Roger!"

"I didn't insult Roger," Jack said with a smirk.

There was no insult to Captain Roger, that is --

Kindness?

Buggy clenched his fist.

If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't beat you!

"Alright, Shanks has finished his help."

Sirius spoke with a smile, breaking the tense atmosphere.

"Let's catch up now."

"I don't have any old grudges with you," Buggy snorted.

"I don't have any with myself, but I do have some with other people."

Sirius turned his head to the side. "Right, Hiyori?"

"Hiyori?"

Buggy was shocked.

At the same moment, in the waters not far from Bariaria Island, a pirate ship was rapidly approaching.

On the bow of the ship, a man was slowly and methodically removing the white robe draped over his body, and then taking off the mask from his face.

"Vice Admiral Garp is probably too late, so we need to think of something."

Behind him, two masked figures were removing their masks.

"The chances of capturing Dragon this time are slim, but at least there's still a chance to make a contribution."

"Let's give Mr. Black Wolf a little surprise!"
