Recruit Luffy at the start and build the strongest navy.

"A ghost...a ghost...a ghost!!"

Bucky was terrified and screamed in panic.

His feet were faster than his brain, and he sprinted backward.

He continued shouting as he ran:

"You, you stay away!!"

"I am the infamous Buggy-sama of the high seas, known as the legendary pirate!"

"If you come any closer... I'll definitely kill you!"

The whistling wind entered his ears, a dark shadow flashed by, and Bucky subconsciously looked up.

What met his eyes was the terrifying face of the dried-up corpse.

!!!

Bucky was so frightened that his cerebellum seemed to shrink. He quickly stopped and turned to run in the other direction.

However, he stopped again after running only a few steps, because the dried corpse was standing in front of him again, still extending a hand and slowly walking towards him.

Just like the train mummy in Doctor Who.

Bucky's face turned pale, his heart pounded, and a chill ran down his spine.

After a long while, Baki's face hardened, and a fierce glint appeared in his eyes.

He reached both hands into his large pockets, and when he pulled them out, several throwing knives were held between his fingers.

"You really think I'm afraid of you, huh?"

"I'm Lord Buggy!!"

Bucky roared.

At that moment, fueled by adrenaline, he overcame his fear and hurled the throwing knife in his hand.

"Go to hell!!!"

The throwing knives whistled through the air, embedding themselves in the dried corpse's body before emerging from its back.

The force of the throwing knife sent the dried corpse flying, causing it to fall to the ground.

Bucky's eyes widened slightly, his pupils filled with excitement.

"Ha...haha!! Hahaha..."

Upon seeing the dried-up corpse fall to the ground, Bucky put his hands on his hips, tilted his head back, and burst into laughter.

"What trash, what a piece of trash! You're no match for me, Lord Buggy! Hahaha..."

Suddenly, a slight grinding sound of bones rang out, causing Bucky's smile to freeze instantly.

Stiffly looking down, he saw the dried corpse hanging in a bizarre posture, then standing in front of Bucky again in the same position, slowly walking towards Bucky.

It was as if the throwing knife had not caused it any damage.

Bucky doesn't laugh!

After a moment of stunned silence, Bucky became completely ruthless.

"Damn it, I refuse to believe I can't beat you to a pulp!"

As he spoke, Bucky reached into his pocket again, this time pulling out several small explosive bombs, pulling the pins, and throwing them out.

Rumbling--

A series of explosions rang out, accompanied by rising thick smoke.

The mummified corpse's body was blown apart, falling to the ground in many pieces.

This time, Bucky didn't laugh out loud as before; instead, he kept his eyes fixed on the pieces of debris on the ground.

I was afraid it would act irrationally and stick together again.

But after a while, nothing unusual happened, and Bucky finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

He patted his chest.

His arrogant expression returned, and he put his hands on his hips.

"Hmph! What kind of trash dares to cause trouble for me, Uncle Bucky?"

"You dare to cause trouble for me, Uncle Bucky..."

"Um?!"

Bucky paused for a moment. Had he said that twice?

Or is it an echo from the cave? But I haven't seen it before!

"Blue~"

A soft sound came from afar, and Buggy shuddered, turning his head sharply. He saw a little boy not far away holding a video Den Den Mushi, smiling at him, and a childish voice coming from his mouth.

"Legendary pirate, Lord Buggy, I recorded your heroic performance entirely on video Den Den Mushi! Would you like to see it?"

Bucky was stunned.

Where did this little devil come from?

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his pupils widened sharply, and he pointed a finger at Kyle, shouting loudly:

"You wretched brat, was it you who did this just now?"

"It's me!"

Kyle readily admitted it.

"Well……"

Kyle's answer startled Bucky for a moment, but anger quickly filled his eyes.

"So it was you, you brat! You've made me look like this!!"

"I'll beat your ass to a pulp!"

With that, Bucky stormed off toward Kyle.

He's determined to teach this brat a lesson today.

Let him know what happens when you act like a brat!

Bucky approached Kyle and reached out to grab the back of Kyle's neck, but before he could make the move, he felt a sudden, tremendous force in his abdomen.

Immediately following was a strong feeling of weightlessness, followed by intense pain, which caused him to let out a scream.

Bucky's figure flew backward like a cannonball, flying dozens of meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

"Cough cough cough..."

Bucky kept coughing, and a series of questions popped into his mind.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

It's sizzling!

A dazzling purple lightning flashed, and Bucky instinctively turned his gaze in that direction.

Then I saw Kyle's body turn into purple lightning and disappear not far away, and then reappear in front of me in an instant.

A streak of purple lightning struck Bucky, causing him to convulse as if having an epileptic seizure.

It's numb! It's really numb!!

Bucky felt like his body wasn't his own anymore; he couldn't control his body to make any movements, and all he felt was a tingling sensation.

"The legend of pirates?"

"Unfortunately, you're going to fall today! Buggy, as a Marine, I hereby formally arrest you. Take you to Impel Down for some serious reformation!"

Kyle looked at Bucky and said with a smile.

But to Bucky, that smile was as evil and terrifying as could be; he was practically the son of a demon!

Bucky wanted to say something, but his mouth was numb and he couldn't speak at all.

Kyle grabbed Bucky by the back of his collar and dragged him toward the exit.

The reason he didn't go inside was because he had already gone inside to check.

There's no treasure at all!!

That's normal; nine out of ten of Bucky's treasure maps are fake, so the probability of finding the treasure is really small.

Oh, wait a minute!

There was no treasure for him, but there was for Bucky.

The treasure is a reward of a VIP guest in the Impel Down prison.

Although he's not on a mission now, since he's run into this situation, there's nothing more to say.

Buggy was the first pirate he captured after becoming a Marine, his first achievement.

Of course, if Bucky had intended to kill him, the outcome would have been different.

Kyle, he has his own unique understanding of justice.

That is, I am justice!!

He doesn't want objective justice; he wants subjective justice, his own version of justice.

Therefore, anyone who opposes him is naturally an enemy of justice.

As for pirates, he wouldn't be as extreme as Akainu, who would kill them all with a single blow.

Those wicked pirates who slaughtered civilians would be sent directly to meet Buddha by Kyle.

Those with minor problems can be pushed into the city.

and so……

Bucky is so lucky!!
