Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 451: Bombing Holy City

Chapter 451: Bombing Holy City

The situation on Marie Geoise doesn't look good for the alliance. They are discovered by the remaining forces including the 5 Elders, Chief Commander Kong, and even some remaining CP0 agents that weren't sent to Marineford.

"It's the correct choice to not send some agents to Marineford. We would be pinched if we sent them all."

"Dragon, you really used this chance well. Attacking the Holy City when our focus is on the war, not a bad idea. You could come and wreak havoc, but don't expect to return alive."

The 5 elders seem very determined to take Dragon's life here. He is the most dangerous enemy of World Government currently. It's not his power that made him dangerous, but his ideal and clear hostile actions toward them.

Buggy and Clown Pirates are the most dangerous group in the world. But they don't actively oppose the World Government, unlike the Revolutionary Army. That's why Clown Pirates aren't seen as the greatest threat to World Government despite being the most dangerous group.

Dragon looks around to see the enemies that have come. Currently, only his Revolutionary Army members and leaders are there. Heart Pirates and the ninjas are nowhere to be seen. Morley has hidden the Heart Pirates underground while the ninjas are still moving around stealthily.

"Staying silent now, aren't you? It seems you've realized that struggling is hopeless."

"Then, we will end you here."

*BOOM*

Suddenly, a massive explosion happens, but it's not happening at the confrontation spot. The explosion happens at one of the Celestial Dragons' mansions located on the outskirts of the noble residential area. After that, several other explosions happen in the other mansions from the outside to the inside area.

The explosions are getting closer to the palace, which makes the World Government's side panic. Using the explosions as distractions, the Revolutionary Army escapes. They use Morley's power to enter the ground and go down the Red Line together with Heart Pirates.

"Law, what were those explosions?"

Morley asks Law because those explosions weren't part of their plan.

"Those are explosions caused by explosive collars. We triggered the collars to explode using small controlled explosives. Those small explosives triggered the collars and made them explode at the same time. I know you don't want to kill them yet to avoid angering the World Government too much. But I thought it was the best solution to take you out of there fast and avoid battle."

"You made the right call. I don't mind killing some Celestial Dragons now even if it means the World Government will give more effort to destroy us. This will happen sooner or later anyway and Buggy has promised me he will help us till the end."

"It seems you trust that man so much."

"Trust, huh? Rather than trusting him, it's more like I can't escape from him. He always knows what I need and provides them to me. It's like he really knows me, but I only know a few things about him. I always feel like I'm just dancing on his palm. However, everything we do together has helped me get closer to my goal. So yeah, maybe I trust him now."

"Sigh, we are similar, huh? I also feel like he is using me, but he also supports me. He even said it to me that he helped me so that I can repay him for everything. It's strange that I don't hate him even though he used me to do some of his businesses like this."

"Haha, yeah, as annoying as he is, I can't help but respect him."

While they go down the Red Line relaxedly, Marie Geoise is in chaos. The remaining guards and agents are searching for Celestial Dragons in a hurry. In this situation, saving the Celestial Dragons is more important than chasing the Revolutionary Army.

The elders are the ones who made the decision to not chase the Revolutionaries. Even so, they are still very pissed at what happened here. Not every noble residence gets destroyed, but the majority of noble residences are destroyed.

"FUCK!? NOT ONLY THEY FREED THE SLAVES, THEY EVEN KILLED MANY CELESTIAL DRAGONS. THIS IS UNFORGIVABLE!"

"It seems we have been too passive regarding Revolutionary Army. We should be more serious after this is over."

"I can't agree more. But we can succeed only if the Marines aren't destroyed today."

"Damn, so many problems at once. It seems we need to consult it first."

The elders nod before they go to the Palace, leaving the cleanup to their subordinates. This situation looks dire, but they are not that worried because it's not unsolvable. The World Government had stood for more than 800 years and had faced numerous problems, yet they still stood to this day because they have the power to support their reign.

Buggy and Dragon know this well even though they don't know what secret weapons the World Government has. But they need to be careful, that's why they tried to free the slaves stealthily. If they moved openly, then they could get annihilated instead.

This problem really makes Buggy hoped that he died after One Piece finished in his past life. At the very least, he wished to know how powerful the World Government actually is. Even now, he still can't uncover the World Government's real power, which is quite dangerous for his Grand Plan.

Well, it's not like his Grand Plan will fail easily, but it will be better if he knows more about his enemies. The World Government's unknown real power can be a serious setback to it, after all. That's why he needs to do something beyond their imagination and it starts by freeing the slaves.

Buggy is still thinking of the slave release plan while fighting the 3 Admirals. He needs to keep fighting them until the group that goes to Marie Geoise finishes their task. That's why he fights defensively and doesn't attack too often, which makes this battle very difficult.

But then, Buggy suddenly gets a signal from his men on the ship. It's a signal that indicates the attack on Marie Geoise is over and they've succeeded. He grins widely because it means he needs to end this war now.

"CRICKET, TAKE OVER THE COMMAND!"

"AYE! EVERYONE, RETREAT! WHITEBEARD PIRATES, YOU GUYS ALSO RETREAT, NOW!"

The Clown executives that fight fiercely against the high-ranking marines suddenly retreat as they commanded. It makes the Whitebeard Pirates flustered and look at their Captain who doesn't look good at all. He is tired and has many injuries, but he looks like he still wants to fight.

"Old man, I don't care if you still want to fight even after Cricket asked you to retreat. If you don't follow this order, then what happens to you next isn't our fault."

Deon passes Whitebeard while saying that and keeps running to the sea. Whitebeard frowns while looking at Buggy who still fights the 3 Admirals with a smile. But Whitebeard realizes that his smile looks different from before.

"Tsk, everyone, retreat."

Whitebeard gives his order, so all Whitebeard Pirates are retreating. They retreat while repelling the Marines. Sengoku orders the Marines to stop chasing the pirates. He orders them to attack from afar using guns and cannons instead.

"Sorry, but you guys need to let them go."

Buggy says that while raising his right foot as the 3 Admirals are rushing to attack him. He is the only one who doesn't retreat, which also made Sengoku gave that order. Sengoku doesn't know why Buggy stays behind, but he knows that it's better to focus on Buggy now.

All high-ranking marines are focusing on Buggy and watch as he stomps his right foot on the ground. Nothing happens for a moment, but then square lines suddenly appear on the plaza ground. Then the ground suddenly jolts out in cube shapes. He is destroying the plaza with just a stomp of his right foot.

The marines are falling as they lose their footing and balances. They widen their eyes in front of this unbelievable scene. One thing they don't know is Buggy can do this to the whole island of Marineford if he wants, but he holds back because his comrades need to retreat.

It's not just the Marines who are shocked, the pirates other than Clown Pirates are also shocked. Whitebeard Pirates have seen this scene when Buggy fought Whitebeard. But it is still shocking to see it in person again.

Such power is making everyone watching the broadcast speechless. They only watch it from screens, but it's enough to make them tremble in fear. Even idiots know that Buggy was holding back earlier. He was strong enough to hold back against the 3 Admirals.

The 5 elders who also watch the war are frowning deeply. They are already troubled by the attack on Marie Geoise and now they need to worry about Buggy's power. If they don't do anything about him, then he will grow even stronger, which will be very dangerous.

"I don't want to think about it, but he might become a bigger threat than Rocks."

"We still haven't solved the Revolutionary Army problem and now we need to think of this Clown."

"Luckily, he doesn't show any interest to conquer the world or direct hostility to us like Rocks. Also, the other Emperors won't stay silent after seeing this. They know he will be a very great threat to them."

"It will be good if they fight among themselves, but we can't rely on that. We need to prepare a countermeasure for him."

"Yeah, no matter how powerful he is, in the end, he is just a human. This is not the first time we faced someone like him. Still, we need to report this."

The elders nod before they leave their room and go deeper inside the palace. Meanwhile, the man they are talking about is rampaging on the battlefield. He slashes his swords everywhere and creates powerful slash attacks that destroy the reformed ground and send the marines flying.

But suddenly, the 3 Admirals, Sengoku, and Garp jump toward him. They send powerful attacks at him and Buggy dodges all of them before standing on a higher ground. He grins while looking at the 5 strongest forces of Marines in front of him.

"Well, well, well, it seems the closing stage won't be that boring."
