As the clouds of war gathered thickly over the front lines,
the Impel Down escapees were also slowly approaching Marineford. The Marines contacted that warship.
"You're the main culprits behind the Impel Down breakout, aren't you? Straw Hat Kid Luffy, and Clown Buggy."
"Me???"
Buggy froze when he heard his own name.
His many underlings began chattering among themselves.
"What? Captain Buggy actually surpassed the Shichibukai and was identified by Marine Headquarters as the main culprit!!!"
"Just what kind of big shot are you!!!"
Buggy had the same question. His eyes brimmed with tears at the thought of being targeted by the Marines.

But his underlings erupted.
"Huh!!! You were on the Oro Jackson, Pirate King Roger's ship that was later passed down to [Black Spear]!!!"
"A superstar of the pirate world!!!"
The Marine officer continued in a tone that suggested he had seen through everything.
"Also, we have investigated the fact that you are sworn brothers with Red-Haired Shanks, one of the Four Emperors,
and close friends with [Black Spear]... Lord Saint Austin, who once suppressed an entire era at sea."
"What?!!!"
The underlings completely exploded.
"A man like you actually managed to remain low-key all this time. Have you finally revealed your strength and ambitions?"
Snot dripped from Buggy's nose,
