Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 433: Plan to Lose

Kizaru's arrival is simply a very bad thing for the Straw Hats right now. They are already having a hard time fighting 2 Pacifistas. But now Kizaru will fight them alongside the Pacifistas while Hatchan is fighting Sentomaru and a Pacifista, so he can't help them.

Buggy watches as Kizaru bullies the Straw Hats like an adult fighting kids. No one among the Straw Hats can touch Kizaru. The only one who has the chance to do it is Leo with his Fire Logia power that can affect Kizaru's light body because fire & light are energy, so they affect each other.

But both of them are in very different leagues right now. So even though his fire ability gives him the biggest chance among everyone in the crew, he still doesn't have a chance to even hurt Kizaru. The Straw Hats simply don't have a chance to win this at all.

Sometime later, Rayleigh appears and assists the Straw Hats when they are cornered. He stops Kizaru so that the Straw Hats just need to focus on a Pacifista. Yes, they just need to fight 1 because Hatchan has almost destroyed the Pacifista he fought.

Sentomaru ordered one of the Pacifistas that fought Straw Hats to assist him & the almost-broken Pacifista. Kizaru alone was enough to stop the Strae Hats, after all. So taking 1 of the 2 Pacifistas was not a problem, at least until Rayleigh appeared.

Now, with Rayleigh stopping Kizaru, the Straw Hats just need to face a Pacifista. It isn't easy though because they are tired and some are injured, especially Leo & Zoro. Zoro still has yet to recover after being beaten by Kuma on Thriller Bark.

As for Leo, he has recovered from his injuries on Thriller Bark actually. He has a very strong metabolism that allows him to recover from injuries very fast. It is surely a genetic trait he got from his parents that defies common sense.

Anyway, he is now injured, but his current injuries are caused by the fight against Kizaru. Leo is the one who attacks Kizaru the most and Kizaru hits him more than the others because he is the only threat to Kizaru there. Although he would get even more beatings if Kizaru knows he is Buggy's son. As an Admiral, he can't let an Emperor's son grow like his father, after all.

While watching the fight that overwhelms the Straw Hats, Buggy is approached by someone. It's none other than the real Bartholomew Kuma who will turn into a cyborg. Both of them have been in contact for years after Dragon introduced them.

"Your current appearance is really deceiving. Even the system in my brain is recognizing you as 'Babysitter' Kuroko instead of 'Clown Lord' Buggy. Anyway, it's time to execute the plan to save Dragon's son and his crew. I won't harm your children, Clown Lord, so don't worry."

"Sure, your plan will surely help them grow by showing them their current standing. But I have a small request, Kuma."

Buggy tells Kuma his request and Kuma agrees easily. There is no plan dangerous enough for Buggy, the Strongest Individual in the world. So Kuma agrees and charges the paw pads in his right hand for a while before hitting Buggy's stomach as strongly as he can.

Kuroko Buggy flies very fast and hits Kizaru who fights Rayleigh now. He doesn't coat his body with Haki, so he can't touch Kizaru. The crash simply breaks Kizaru's body into bits of light, so he keeps flying until he crashes very hard into a Giant Mangrove.

It takes everyone's attention, so they look at the crashing spot. They see Buggy comes out of the dust cloud with blood dripping out of his mouth. He also looks to be in very bad shape even though he only got hit once by Kuma. Well, it's because Buggy made sure to lower his defense to the minimum and he also hit himself a few times using advanced haki before Kuma hit him.

"That is BABYSITTER!"

Sentomaru shouts in surprise when he sees Kuroko Buggy. Kizaru also seems interested while Rayleigh is raising an eyebrow because he doesn't know what Buggy is planning now. He knows about Buggy's undercover, but Rayleigh never thought Buggy would appear like this.

Their attention then shifts toward Kuma who finally shows up. They thought he is just another Pacifista, but then they see the bible and paw pads in his hands. So they realize that he is the real deal. And now they assume that Kuroko Buggy was fighting the real Kuma.

"Heh, so you sent me to an Admiral, huh? Not a bad plan if I must say."

Buggy starts his act and gets ready to fight Kizaru & Kuma at the same time. Kizaru is quite stunned by this because he was also tasked to capture Kuroko Buggy a few months ago when Kuroko Buggy hit a Celestial Dragon so hard that the trash got into a comatose state.

"Sigh, this is a problem. I am under an order to capture the Straw Hats. But you also need to be captured and you should be prioritized because you are more dangerous. Sigh, what should I do?"

Kizaru is in trouble, or so it seems because he suddenly shoots a light bullet from his finger. The light bullet is insanely fast and it hits Kuroko Buggy who has bad 'injuries'. It pierces Kuroko Buggy's stomach and makes him fall to his knees.

Kuma suddenly moves when that happens. But he doesn't attack Kuroko Buggy and goes to the Straw Hats instead. Then just like in the series, Kuma sends the Straw Hats to different places using his ability. Now, Kuroko Buggy is the only enemy left because Rayleigh leaves after Buggy nod at him.

"Now, I should capture you at least. Sentomaru, stay on guard, and don't let him escape."

Kizaru flashes toward Buggy and sends a very fast light kick. Kuroko Buggy blocks it with his hand, but he still gets flung very fast and crashes onto some buildings. Then he fights against Kizaru while Sentomaru and the Kumas guard the perimeter.

Kuroko Buggy is fighting Kizaru better than the Straw Hats working together. He also uses Haki, so he can touch Kizaru's intangible light body. But he is holding back a lot to hide his real power. Kuroko Buggy even wears a seastone bracelet on his left foot to seal his devil fruit and reduce his power.

Even so, he still can use haki and his power doesn't decrease that much. Buggy has used a seastone bracelet in his training for years, so he is used to this weakened state. That's why he still needs to consciously reduce his power to not appear suspicious.

Kuroko Buggy fights Kizaru with 'all he got' and he can surely hold his ground against Kizaru. The power level that Kuroko Buggy shows is at the level of a weak Emperor's Commander. If he goes to New World with his current identity, then there is a high chance that the Emperors will recruit him, which will be funny.

But that will never happen because Buggy has planned things thoroughly. The key point is this fight against Kizaru. He fights the Admiral in a rather destructive battle. Their fight causes a lot of damage, but luckily there is no civilian there, so no innocent dies.

Rayleigh watches from afar to see the battle for a while before leaving. They have met yesterday, so Rayleigh knows what Buggy is planning. He was very surprised by it, but he didn't oppose the idea because he doesn't have the right to it. Buggy only told him because of Alice and nothing else.

The battle continues and Kuroko Buggy succeeds to land some hits on Kizaru. However, he got more hits and damage. By using a weak Emperor's Commander level of power, Buggy surely doesn't have a chance to win against an Admiral, and obviously, he loses after fighting for an hour.

Sentomaru places seastone handcuffs on Kuroko Buggy's hands. Then he calls Sengoku because he can't really trust a man who tried to call him using a Black Denden Mushi to make a decision. Sengoku orders them to take Kuroko Buggy to Impel Down immediately.

"We are not judging him first?"

"No, we don't have time for that in this current situation. Besides, Enies Lobby is currently under reconstruction, so it can't be used. We will put him in Impel Down first and think of what to do later. Kizaru, return to Marineford immediately after you're done. We still have to prepare many things."

"Sigh, alright. I understand, Sengoku-san."

Kuroko Buggy smirks thinly when he hears that. It's his plan all along to let himself get captured because he wants to go to the world's biggest prison, Impel Down. It's a place he couldn't visit without being captured as a criminal, after all, so he planned this.

Also, this is a good time to go there because he will witness one of his favorite arcs in the series. Ace was still captured by Teach because even with Magma Magma Fruit, Ace was still weaker than Teach. That guy hid his power very well for years, but he is very strong and has gotten stronger after eating his devil fruit.

Ace never stood a chance against Teach and his rash personality made it worse. He would get angry at the slightest provocation that someone as smart as Teach made. Ace was simply dancing in Teach's hands when they fought.

But none of those matters now because Buggy decides to do something about it. He has done so much for the idiot to let Ace die this young. Also, he really wants to get involved in the main events that seem to still go similarly to the series even though he has changed many things in the psst.

'Well, I can't control how the world runs, so I'll just do what I want to do and change what I want to change. I will involve myself in anything I want and this will be the one I've waited for the most.'

Buggy smirks excitedly as he is being sent to Impel Down using a heavily guarded Marine Ship. The Marine and World Government won't be ready for what he's going to do.
