427. Giving Lesson

Buggy drops the unconscious man in his hand while looking at the Straw Hats. He looks at them and smiles a little as he sees his son & daughter who have grown a lot since they met last time. It's been quite some time since Buggy's last visit to their home, after all.

There's Robin too here, the little girl his crew saved years ago. She looks like she has a good life, so he is very glad he chose to save her. He would love to talk to them, but he still needs to put up an act as Kuroko, so he turns his soft smile into a wicked grin.

"You guys don't look like reinforcements. Are you people from below?"

"Oi, what are you doing to them?"

Luffy asks Buggy with a serious tone, which is quite unusual.

"I asked first, so answer my question first before asking. Are you guys from below? Pirates? Adventurers?"

"We are pirates."

"Is that so? Then you better leave now if you don't want to get involved. I am a pirate too and I am doing my job as a pirate now. If you leave now, then I won't do anything, but if you choose to stay either for my gold or these people you've just met, then I will beat the crap out of you weaklings."

The Straw Hats ask Luffy what should they do while looking at Kuroko Buggy. He looks strong to them, especially with a lot of defeated guys around him. Chopper is checking on the defeated guys briefly to see if they are dead.

"Luffy, no one here died. They aren't hurt that bad either."

Wyper who is still conscious suddenly stands and looks sharply at Buggy.

"He doesn't kill anyone here, only beating us up. It has been 5 days and we fought every day, but no one gets seriously injured even though we always got beaten up by him."

Of course, his explanation confuses the Straw Hats. So he just says that he won't explain the details because he doesn't need to.

"If you are here just to disturb us, then leave. We already have a hard time facing one person."

"Hey, is he really strong?"

Zoro asks Wyper while grinning because he seems interested.

"How does it look to you?"

"I don't need to ask, huh? Well, it seems we'll still need to fight him, right, Luffy? Even if we don't want the gold, we'll still need to fight & defeat him so that we can explore this place freely."

Leo agrees with Zoro. "Yeah, besides, it seems he won't let us go as he said."

Kuroko Buggy's grin seems to be full of excitement about fighting people, so there's no way he will let them go without any fight now. Luffy also agrees with that, so he orders them to get ready to fight immediately.

Nami goes to hide without any hesitation while Robin stays behind. Only the boys are truly getting ready to fight, which surprises Wyper because they don't know each other. But Wyper doesn't reject them because it might be better to let them fight Kuroko Buggy too.

Kuroko Buggy grins and taunts them using his left hand. The boys then rush at him and Usopp shoots a bullet first. Buggy catches it and it explodes in his hand. Usopp celebrates it, but then the Straw Hats' eyes widen when they see Buggy appears without any scratches.

Zoro then slashes his 3 swords very strongly, but they get caught by Buggy. Not only do they get stopped, but they also get caught by his bare hand. Then Buggy also catches Leo's fire blades with his other hand.

He doesn't feel any pain and there's no damage at all to his hands. Sanji sends a kick from the side and it hits Buggy's face cleanly. But Buggy doesn't move even a bit as if nothing hits him. The same thing happens when Chopper punches him from the other side.

Nothing happens even when Luffy's strong pistol punch passes between Leo & Zoro then hits his stomach. Buggy doesn't even flinch, he just stands there as if nothing happens. These guys have defeated a Warlord's organization, but they can't even make a man move after attacking him together.

Of course, it surprises all the Straw Hat Pirates, but Wyper doesn't react to it. He just thinks it's a good chance to attack, so he moves behind Buggy. Wyper puts his hands on Buggy's back and pushes them.

"REJECT!"

*BOOM*

A massive explosion suddenly happens, pushing Wyper & the nearby Straw Hats back. The Straw Hats don't get that much damage though because the impact hit Buggy first. They only get pushed by the shockwave that doesn't damage them that much even though it hurts.

Wyper gets the most damage though because of the recoil. He has used Reject Dial many times in the last few days, so the damage on his hands has stacked a lot. His bones have cracked now, so he won't be able to use even Impact Dials for a while.

"How many times have you used that? And how many times have I told you that it doesn't work?"

Buggy is still unscathed without any scratches and he doesn't even move from his position. He really shows the massive gap of power between them. They feel like they are attacking a very sturdy wall that won't budge no matter what they do.

"Are you done attacking? Then, it's my turn, right?"

After saying that, Buggy walks slowly toward the Straw Hats. Wyper is already done, after all, so he doesn't need to do anything to the guy. He only needs to take care of the Straw Hats and it really makes him excited because he will give these main characters a good lesson.

"Let me tell you something before I beat you up so badly, kids. Sometimes, it's better to ignore things that aren't your business. If you still want to stick your nose in those things, then make sure you are good enough to take care of it and can handle the consequences of your actions. I will help you attach that into your naive minds."

Buggy walks slowly without showing any signs of intimidation. Yet the Straw Hats can feel the strong and scary pressure coming from him. They know they can't run away, so they attack him again while suppressing their nervousness.

Usopp shoots some strong explosive bullets at him consecutively. But now Buggy doesn't let them hit him, he changes their directions with graceful & smooth moves that won't trigger the bullets to explode. He sends them back to Usopp and they explode on the ground right in front of Usopp.

The explosions send Usopp flying quite far and he gets knocked out after getting a lot of damage. Buggy doesn't direct them right on Usopp's body because he doesn't want to kill the long nose. He doesn't know what to say to Usopp's mom that he has saved if he kills Usopp, after all.

His next target is Chopper who has just transformed into Horn Mode. Buggy suddenly appears in front of him after moving at a very high speed. With Buggy's power, he doesn't even need a technique like Soru to move very fast, and he can even surpass Soru's speed if he wants.

Buggy grins and hits Chopper's head just once, but it's enough to knock out the reindeer. It angers the silent Archeolog though who finally attacks Buggy after only watching for a while. A lot of hands suddenly grow on Buggy's body and they try to ben his body & limbs.

However, Buggy doesn't budge even a bit and just keeps grinning while looking at Robin. He can feel that she is quite strong, but it's not enough to make him move. Gaban raised her well, but Buggy is in a whole different league.

Buggy still has those hands on his body when he counters Sanji's high kick with his kick. He doesn't use that much power, but it's enough to hurt Sanji's leg. Then Buggy kicks Sanji's jaw from below, sending him to fly and knocking him out.

After Sanji gets defeated, the 2 swordsmen attack him from 2 sides. Buggy moves between them without getting hit by any of their swords. He turns around and hits them from above at the same time using his fists. They are knocked out instantly after getting hit.

Luffy, Nami, & Robin who are still fine get very surprised because Buggy just hit Leo's fire logia body. That means he might be able to hit Luffy's rubber body too. It doesn't look good, but Luffy still attacks Kuroko Buggy because there is no other choice.

He runs at Buggy while stretching his arms to the back. Then he retracts his stretched arms and sends them to Kuroko Buggy. Buggy just grins and lets Luffy's bazooka attack hit him. It still can't make him move even a bit and it becomes a problem for Luffy instead.

Kuroko Buggy catches Luffy's wrists and then squeezes them quite hard. Luffy screams in pain as he feels his wrists are about to break. That pain causes his concentration drops and his stretched arms return to normal.

But because Buggy holds his wrists, he gets pulled by the retracted arms instead. He arrives in front of Kuroko Buggy who just grins before headbutting Luffy from above. The headbutt is so strong it slams Luffy onto the ground and shakes the surrounding area as a deep mark appears there.

The boys have been defeated, now there are only Robin & Nami. Nami immediately says she gives up, but Buggy still attacks her. He wants to teach her a lesson that she still needs to stand up and fight for herself. Giving up is good sometimes, but she needs to try before even giving up.

Lastly, he attacks Robin who can't do anything to him with all her techniques. She has good skills, but she lacks the power to back those up. Without enough power, she would get overwhelmed easily by those with ridiculously strong power.

Kuroko Buggy grins while looking at the defeated people. He feels like he has just become the main villain after beating up the main characters. "Well, that aside, I want to see how you'll face this overwhelming defeat. Show me how you'll handle this situation, kiddos."
