Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 325: CP9

As the war rages on the ice battlefield, a few men in black suits come out of a small submarine that resurfaced near The Pearl. They are Cipher Pol agents that were given a mission to steal things on Black Pearl, mainly technologies and research data.

The group of 16 men climbs onto Black Pearl, but they can't get on it because suddenly they get shot from above. Ruff & Dela who stay on the ship have seen them coming. Buggy has anticipated this, after all, so he told them to stay on the ship.

"I don't know how many times you've tried to steal our technologies anymore. You've done this so many times that I have lost count of it," says Ruff while looking at the agents from above.

The agents are still alive because they aren't just normal agents. There's no way the World Government sent normal agents to do this mission. These agents are from CP9, and they are the main agents of the group, so they are strong.

Some of them got hit by the bullets, while the rest escaped right after Ruff & Dela started shooting their comrades. The ones who get shot also just get light injuries because they have moved slightly before getting shot. So the bullets didn't hit their vital spots.

"Hmm? I think I've seen their faces before," says Ruff.

"They are CP9 agents, the 2nd strongest group after CP0," says Dela.

"Ooh, no wonder they look familiar, we've seen their pictures many times, especially that guy, Who's Who if I'm not wrong. He is said to be the genius of CP9, right?" asks Ruff while pointing at the young Who's Who.

"Correct," replies Dela shortly.

"I see, I see. But I don't see their leader, Spandine. The Lord has ordered us to kill Spandine if ever see him," says Ruff while looking around.

"Then we will do it when we see him," says Dela.

"Hmm, alright. For now, let's take care of them," says Ruff confidently.

Ruff isn't a fan of fighting and he prefers to avoid it if he can. But he was forced to fight many times against strong opponents. So slowly, he gets stronger to the point where he can take care of a Rear Admiral. He has found confidence & skills in fighting that he didn't have in the past.

However, fighting is still not his main forte, it's still science & weapons. He shows it immediately by activating unexpected weapons. Many small gun barrels suddenly come out of the ship's railings on all sides.

It surprises the CP9 agents while Ruff is just grinning while holding a controller. It looks like a game controller because Buggy asked him to change his original design and he liked it. Anyway, Ruff starts controlling the guns and attacks the agents. They try to evade the very fast bullets, but only a few have the ability to do that. Some try to block using their famous Tekkai, but none of their Tekkai can block the bullets that can even pierce Armament Haki. Only a few with good speed & Kami-E or Observation Haki can evade the bullets.

However, even if they can evade the bullets from Ruff's attacks, they still have another opponent. Dela is helping Ruff from the back using 2 pistols in both hands. She shoots the ones who evade Ruff's attacks using her pistols.

Some of those agents start using their devil fruit abilities, which are all Zoan type. Almost all of them are normal Zoan like Lion, Rabbit, Horse, Kangaroo, and Fox. The only exception is Who's Who who has Ancient Zoan, Saber-toothed Tiger, or also known as Saber Tiger.

Zoan users have tough physiques, but they aren't immune to physical attacks. The normal Zoan users can't defend themselves against Dela's advanced pistols. They get pierced by the bullets even though they've hardened their bodies using Tekkai which makes their tough bodies even tougher.

In the end, only Who's Who survives the barrage of shootings. He still gets hit though, but not on his vital spots, so he still can fight. His body has transformed into a gigantic Saber Tiger that dwarfed normal people.

"Ooh, a big kitty. Do you want some fish?" asks Ruff.

"That's not s big kitty, that's a big dude in a kitty's form," says Dela.

"Ah, that's right. Hmph, I hate dudes who act cute," says Ruff even though Who's Who never acted cute, he looks menacing instead.

Who's Who can't even be bothered by their conversations and he just thinks, 'Didn't they say these 2 are the weakest among the executives? But these 2 have taken out all the agents except me. How can weak people even manage to do this?'

Well, Ruff & Dela indeed are the weakest among executives. But they are the executives of Clown Pirates, one of the strongest pirate crews in the world. So they can't be compared with the executives of most crews even if they are the weakest.

Besides, Ruff & Dela are the weakest in physical power. They are not weak in battle power because they can use their brains well. Ruff is the creator of the technologies that the crew has, so he can use all the weapons well, which makes him good at battles.

"Why don't you go back, big kitty?" asks Ruff.

"Go back? I will do that anytime if it's ever an option. Even if I die, I will never go back during a mission," says Who's Who while transforming into a human-beast mode.

"Wow, such determination. Well, I guess CP9 & CP0 are different from other groups because they were raised by WG & Celestial Dragons since they were kids. But you know, sometimes you need to do what's best for yourself," says Ruff before clicking a red button in the center of his controller.

After he clicked it, 9 metal balls with propellers fly out of a box beside him. The metal balls then surround Who's Who on 3 different levels. So there are 3 balls at the bottom, 3 at the middle, and 3 at the top.

Who's Who is wary of them, so he decides to destroy them before Ruff does something using them. He thrust his maw forward at high speed toward the metal balls. Then 9 blasts of compressed air are shot toward the 9 balls, it's his technique that he calls Fang Gun, a variation of Shigan that he made.

The 9 balls get destroyed very easily because they were made to get destroyed. Ruff will destroy them using his controller even if Who's Who doesn't do it. So rather than saving himself, Who's Who is digging his own grave.

After they get destroyed, the metal balls release 3 kinds of different attacks. 3 balls at the top release high-voltage lightning bolts that strike Who's Who at the same time. He can't move as the 3 balls in the middle shoot fire at him.

The 3 balls at the bottom then release a lot of oil which makes the fire bigger. He can't move because the lightning bolts have paralyzed him, so he gets burnt by the big fire. The fire won't disappear soon, so he won't survive if he can't get away.

But he isn't the current strongest member of CP9 for nothing. He can get out of the fire despite getting a lot of damage. Most of his fur has been burnt along with some parts of his skin, but he is still alive.

"Ooh, he can hold Enel's Lightning quite well. Hmm, maybe it's because the lightning bolts aren't the strongest that Enel can make. I still can't make something strong enough to store his strongest lightning, after all. Hmm, maybe I can make some improvements on these parts," says Ruff while taking notes after observing the effect of the attacks.

"Stop taking notes and focus on your enemy," says Dela.

"Sorry, I need to take the data, it's valuable data, after all. Can you hold him for a moment?" asks Ruff while still taking notes.

Dela sighs and starts shooting Who's Who from higher ground. Who's Who runs to evade the bullets even though he still feels hurt. He runs first to buy time so he can recover a bit. But he doesn't realize it yet, that Ruff wants to use him as a test subject for some new weapons.
