Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 146: Overwhelming

While Buggy gets his ass kicked by Kizaru, Cricket & co are fighting well with the officers. They show why they are worth their bounties and reputations. The Marines weren't prepared well for this.

Enel, Jude, & Manba who fight the Marine Captains are overwhelming their opponents. Even Enel who has 2 opponents can suppress them easily. He is also pissed after getting defeated easily by Kizaru, so he lashed it on the 2 Captains.

He spams his lightning on the 2 Captains, Greg & Parjo. Their seastone coated weapons which are a club & a spiked wrecking ball are useless against Enel's attacks. Enel just attacks blindly without caring about his surrounding.

Luckily, he is alone with the 2 Marine Captains because the others have spread to other places. His rage just affects the 2 Captains and makes them can't get closer to him. They can't get closer, but they need to evade Enel's lightning bolts.

"DAMN VERMIN, WHY ARE YOU STILL RUNNING AROUND? DIE!" says Enel in frustration as he still can't defeat the Marine Captains.

He is very pissed, so Enel flashes toward the 2 Marine Captains. They see it as a chance and swing their weapons at him who now stands beside them. But suddenly, Enel glows brightly because of his lightning power.

"10 Million Volt Discharge!" says Enel.

*BOOM*

The Marine Captains widen their eyes as Enel's body explodes. His lightning spread everywhere, creating a big explosion. It hits the 2 Marine Captains and electrocutes them. The high voltage makes the 2 Marine Captains faints immediately.

"Phew, I feel better now," says Enel in relief after releasing his pent-up emotion.

Jude also has an easy time with her opponent. She got a Marine Captain, Tono, who wields a pair of seastone coated short sticks as an opponent. His weapon made her worried at first, but Tono isn't as strong as she thought.

She just doesn't need to get close to her opponent and attack from a distance. As long as she doesn't touch the seastone coated sticks, she will be fine. She overwhelms Tono easily and strangles him in the chest to suffocate him. He finally faints after being unable to breathe, making Jude wins easily.

"Hehe, I've grown stronger. Captain should like me now, right?" ponders Jude, still not giving up chasing Buggy.

The Marine Captains are not too strong for the Clowns' current level. It's also the case for the last Marine Captain who fights Manba. The fat doctor fights calmly and he is an experienced fighter. So he can fight the Marine Captain easily too.

Manba just needs one shot of his spear bazooka to defeat his opponent, Slek, who fights barehanded. The bazooka has been upgraded by Ruff and has bigger firepower. It can even knock out a Seaking in one shot.

Slek can't use Armament and can't even use Observation Haki, so Manba can predict his movement easily and hit him with one shot. Without armament, Slek can't protect himself and receive the full brunt of the bazooka's explosion that makes him faint instantly.

"What a rare thing for me to get an easy opponent. Is this what Captain felt all these times?" ponders Manba as he ties Slek onto a tree.

On another hand, Mantis's fight isn't an easy one, but it's also not difficult. Her opponent, Commodore Jasmine, who wields an axe is quite strong. Jasmine is also a devil fruit user, a zoan type devil fruit.

She ate the Dog Dog Fruit, model: Red Fox. As a fox, she is very fast & agile, but not that strong. Her weapon choice is very strange considering she is a speed type. Axe is a heavy weapon and needs strength, not speed, after all.

Mantis has the upper hand because of that. She can move a lot faster than Jasmine who is in hybrid form. With a bo-staff, Mantis's movements aren't hindered because it's light. She pushed Jasmine who can only defend now.

"Why're you using that heavy weapon? It doesn't suit your type of power," asks Mantis as she attacks Jasmine with her dance.

"Silent! You don't know anything," says Jasmine angrily as she defends Mantis's unpredictable attacks.

"Of course, I won't. No one will know it if you never tell them," says Mantis rather pissedly.

Jasmine doesn't say anything and keeps defending Mantis's attacks. She tries to counter many times but never succeeds. Mantis is faster and has Observation haki too. So all her attacks have been predicted by Mantis.

Mantis has been holding back since the beginning because her opponent is a girl. She sees Jasmine's heart is quite fragile, so she pitied the Marine a little bit. But now she knows that Jasmine is hard-headed, so there's no need to hold back anymore.

"Sorry about this, but I can't accompany you any longer," says Mantis.

Jasmine is confused, but then she is surprised to see Mantis's movements change. Mantis's attacks get faster and stronger, making her get hit more and more. She can't even see Mantis's attacks now when they get faster.

"Above you," warns Mantis.

That warning makes Jasmine raises her axe above her head to block Mantis's attack from above. "Sigh, you're too naive," says Mantis who stands right in front of Jasmine.

Jasmine widens her eyes and tries to attack Mantis, but it's too late. Mantis sends a full-powered haki coated vertical kick to Jasmine's jaw from a very close distance. It flings Jasmine upwards and knocks her out, making her revert to her human form.

"A naive girl like you need to be taught a good lesson," says Mantis as she poked Jasmine's big breast with her bo-staff.

Back in the Marine battleship, Deon is working on his 2nd task. He goes around the ship to find every denden mushi and gathers them. This job is quite tiring because he doesn't know where the denden mushis are and the ship is very big.

Buggy gave this task because the Marine HQ might contact Kizaru's unit for a report. So it will be very suspicious if there's no answer at all from the unit. Deon needs to act as one of the battleship's crew and fool the Marine HQ.

He finally gathered every denden mushi in the battleship after running around for minutes. Then he gathered the denden mushi on the front deck and he rests there. He doesn't fight, but he is very tired now.

Just when Deon tries to rest, one denden mushi went off. He wakes up immediately and wants to pick it up, but he stops. Now when the time comes, Deon is very confused about what he needs to do and says through the denden mushi.

When Deon is flustered, a hand suddenly grabs the denden mushi's microphone. It surprises Deon and he looks at the hand's owner, it's Ruff. Ruff has finished his task, so he comes here to check on Deon and give help if it's needed.

"Hello?" asks Ruff through the denden mushi.

Deon is panicking because Ruff suddenly picks it up and talks. It will be a big problem if Ruff says something wrong.

"This is HQ, what's the situation over there?" asks the caller from Marine HQ.

"A-Uh, wait, please! I'm a chore boy, not the one responsible here," says Ruff with a fake nervous tone.

Deon is dumbfounded seeing Ruff's act, but he approves it.

"What? Chore boy? Where's the ship's Captain?" asks the caller.

"H-He's having diarrhea and left a few minutes ago," says Ruff.

"Is there anyone else there?" asks the caller.

"N-no, it's just me. I'm cleaning the room, so no one enters it. S-Should I give the denden mushi to the ship's Captain?" asks Ruff.

".... Sigh, no, it's okay. Just tell me what happens there," says the caller.

"Y-Yes," says Ruff.

Ruff then gives a fake report with a fake nervous tone. The caller isn't suspicious at all because he thinks Ruff is a chore boy, so it's normal for Ruff to be nervous. Ruff finished the call without creating any suspicion.

Deon claps his hands after Ruff finished, "Great job, Mr. Actor."

Ruff smirks and has a smug expression, "Leave this task to me, The Great Ruff."
