Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 379: Golden Lion Shiki

With Shiki's floating islands right below them, the Clown Pirates get ready to descend. But before the ship even moves down, Buggy jumps from the front railing. They are still hundreds of meters above the floating islands, but he jumps without any hesitation.

"Would you look at that? Someone is impatient," says Cricket while looking at Buggy from the ship's railing.

"He always wanted to try jumping from the sky, didn't he?" asks Brook.

"Yeah, although what he really wants is jumping from the sky to the island in the sea. But he is still inexperienced with this kind of thing, so this can be said to be his training," says Palu.

"This looks fun, I want to try it too," says Manba before jumping from the ship too.

"I hope my bones don't break," says Brook before jumping too.

The boys look at each other before they also start jumping from the ship. Most of the men are jumping from the ship and only some stay behind, making the women grumble. Even Enel jumps, so Ruff needs to control the ship.

*BOOM*

Buggy lands on the biggest floating island like superman. He lands right in front of the biggest building that looks like a castle. His landing destroys the front yard and alerts everyone inside the castle because it's so loud.

People come out of the castle and they see Buggy standing in the middle of a big crater. Shiki is also among those people and his appearance makes Buggy smirk. Buggy just stands there with a cool pose while looking at Shiki.

"Golden Lion Shiki, we've come to take your head. You aren't fit for this new era, so we, The Clown Pirates will end you here today," says Buggy before spreading his arms.

Before Shiki can say anything, the other Clown Pirates' boys land behind Buggy with great impact. The last one to land is Magnus the Giant who makes the greatest impact on the ground which even shakes the whole floating island.

"I hope you've cleaned your neck, Golden Lion, for I will slash it soon," says Buggy while making a slashing motion on his neck.

Shiki was actually impressed by The Clown Pirates' cool entrance, his men are impressed too by the way. But then he shakes his head and focuses on The Clowns because he knows they are here as enemies. He has stayed on these floating islands for years, but he always gets updated on the world below, so he knows who The Clown Pirates are.

"The brat from Roger Pirates who always shivered in fear has come this far, huh? I don't know how you found this place and know that I'm here. But don't think that you will leave this place alive, brat. Just because you've done a few things down there doesn't mean that you can defeat me," says Shiki haughtily.

"Pfft, your confidence sounds empty with that ship steering wheel on your head. I know you were worried about your baldness, but that doesn't mean you could use a ship's steering wheel to replace your hair. Are you cosplaying as a rooster, pfft? Maybe I should call you Golden Chicken now," says Buggy with a mocking tone while trying to hold his laugh which makes it more hilarious.

Buggy knew Shiki got that steering wheel on his head after his fight against Roger years ago. But mentioning it like that isn't fun, so he used Shiki's baldness to make fun of the old man. It will be boring if he just starts fighting Shiki, so he messes around first.

His crewmates follow him and don't even try to hold their laugh like him. They just laugh out loud and some of them even roll on the ground because Shiki's appearance is too hilarious. All of them know Shiki from his bounty pictures. He looked badass there, but now he just looks like an old man with a mental disorder.

"BAHAHAHA, A GOLDEN CHICKEN, THE LION HAS BEEN DOWNGRADED TOO MUCH, HAHAHA!" says Deon while rolling on the ground.

"YOHOHOHO, IT IS AN UPGRADE ACTUALLY, HE LOOKS BETTER AS A CHICKEN THAN A LION, YOHOHOHO," says Brook while holding his empty stomach.

The Clown Pirates keep laughing and make Shiki very pissed. Not only they have invaded his base, they even mock his appearance. Although he himself found his appearance hilarious, it always feels irritating if his enemies are making fun of it.

He yells at them angrily, but it just adds oil to the flame because he looks even more hilarious when he's angry. The Clown girls who come soon also laugh at him, making him even angrier and more embarrassed. No one has made fun of him this much even after the rudder stick into his head.

"ENOUGH OF YOUR NONSENSE, YOU DAMN BRATS!" shouts Shiki angrily while releasing his Conqueror Haki.

The Clowns stop laughing for a moment before laughing again. None of them get affected by Shiki's Conqueror Haki, well, except their new member, Hatchan. Manba takes care of him while the others keep laughing.

Shiki gets very frustrated and his men just don't know what to do now. They are too confused by this situation to even think properly. After all, The Clown Pirates seem to come here just to make fun of their leader's appearance instead of attacking their group.

Buggy finally stops his laugh after a while and says, "Whew, that's refreshing. Thank you for entertaining us, Golden Chicken."

"I NEVER ENTERTAINED YOU AND I'M NOT A CHICKEN YOU DAMN BRAT!" shouts Shiki angrily.

Buggy ignores it though, "Alright guys, that's enough. The Golden Rooster will cry if you make fun of him too much. Let's just focus on our reason to be here. Manba, let someone else take care of Hatchan, he hasn't used to this kind of battle. When he wakes up, tell him to observe and fight the weaker ones. You guys can choose any opponent you want except that Golden Cock."

Shiki finally can't stand it anymore and sends a slash attack to Buggy using the sword embedded in his right leg. Buggy just smirks and also makes his slash attack with his sword. Their slash attacks meet in the middle and destroy each other.

"Ho, so you're not just an overconfident brat with too much luck, huh?" asks Shiki while grinning.

"I couldn't reach this level just by luck, you know. But I am disappointed, Shiki. It seems you've gotten weaker compared to when you fought Captain Roger. It might be because of your age or lack of legs, but I think you've weakened too much. Even if Whitebeard gets sick, he will still be stronger than you now. Such a pity," says Buggy.

Shiki is truly angry now. He hates being pitied more than being mocked like before. So rather than shouting like before, Shiki is silent and looks at Buggy with a cold gaze. He is now seriously angry, not just pissed because of some rude brats' mockeries.

"You really have a death wish, huh, kid?" asks Shiki with a cold low tone.

"Death wish? I was just stating a fact. You are weak, and I'll prove it soon. Golden Lion, you are not fit for this new era," says Buggy while unsheathing both of his swords.

Shiki just stares at Buggy and Buggy also does the same. They have a staredown for a moment before Shiki waves his right hand forward. He is signaling his subordinates to attack The Clown Pirates who have far fewer numbers than Shiki's group.

Shiki's men rush forward and more men are coming from all over the place. There are thousands of them while The Clown Pirates only have a little more than a hundred. Their number difference is too far apart, but number is rarely a problem for people of their caliber.

Buggy grins and waves his hand as a signal too. The Clown Pirates who have waited for this are getting excited and they rush forward too. The battle of Clown Pirates against Golden Lion Pirates has begun.
