This chapter made me so happy. I love Buggy so much but Oda added so much depth to his character with a few panels. Buggy didn’t reject shanks offer to join his crew because he hated him. He did it because he believed in him so much that when he felt like he gave up after Roger’s death, he felt personally offended! Oda never ceases to amaze me. BUGGY FOR PIRATE KING 2023!

Nah. his first reason is he didnt want to be Shank's subordinate. They already stated they didn't want to be each other's subordinate way back when they are still in Roger's ship when Roger still alive.

What's crazy is that Buggy didn't really cared about getting the One Piece but he got pissed that it seemed like Shanks is going for it now after turning down the dream originally in the past. That alone got Buggy to wanting to go for it now just because he feels like Shanks doesn't deserved it. I got to give props to Buggy: Dude admired Roger probably more than anyone

[@Truck-kun11]

I feel like part of the reason Bugg is so disappointed in Shanks giving up on going after The One Piece is that deep down he feels guilty since it's his fault that Shanks didn't go to Laugh Tale with Rogers.

[@TheSkullivan12]

I hadn't even thought about the Mihawk/Zoro angle until you brought it up, but I think you're spot on with that train of thought. In order for Zoro's character arc to reach a conclusion, he was going to eventually have to fight Mihawk. But with so much else happening in this final arc, there were very few opportunities for that to be able to happen organically within the story. But now that Buggy has forcibly put Mihawk in a position of opposition to the Straw Hats, it's only a matter of time until they have to face each other.

It's weird to think that we actually saw the truest examples of both sides of the coin with this chapter. T-bone, a marine so dedicated to protecting people that he wouldn't fight a starving old man who was trying to collect his bounty. And Buggy who took the old man under his protection. He understands the hope, romance and dreams of all those who sail out to be a pirate.

[@dfile7598]

When seeing the conversation that Buggy had with Crocodile & Mihawk, and his flashback with Shanks, as well as the speech he had with his followers, I am now starting to think that this is the 1st step towards the Genius Jester's character development which may become as big as Usopp & Momonosuke had!

I never once in my life thought I’d see Buggy lecturing SHANKS on failing Roger and his pursuit of dreams. Absolute legend, I believe in D Clown

[@RCarteras]

I'm calling it now. Before dying, Roger told Shanks to look for the next Pirate King, and gave him the strawhat and told him the things that person had to match to be "the next one". Shanks got angry/sad because he always believed HE was gonna be "the next one". So Shanks did everything Roger asked, just to, in the end, prove that HE was more fitting for the role than whoever was the chosen. And that's why he wasn't searching for the road poneglyphs untill Luffy became a Yonko, to prove that he could beat his rival just when both of them are in their peak.

[@MrSnow288]

Legit I want that to be the plot twist.

[@RCarteras]

I was thinking that since the end of Wano, and this Buggy/Shanks miniflashback made it even more clear to me, so i'm starting to tell everyone and everywhere😂😂

[@TheGosgosh]

It also fits in with shanks telling Luffy to „give shanks back the straw hat, once Luffy is ready“. Feels like Shanks wants to be crowned by the guy who „supposedly“ is the „next roger“.

[@mynamesbigmynamesbigmyname4757]

okay that would actually be a great twist although slightly dark for one piece, an upbeat yet smart character being just another power hungry guy like all of the villains before.

I like this idea but why would he have cried when he heard Luffy's word then ? Even when he tells Rayleigh, he seems genuinely moved by Luffy's words.

[@Ragnay977]

It's so funny that we've been joking for maybe a decade or more about how Buggy is going to banana slip his way up the ranks to King of the Pirates. But this was the first time I could legitimately see it in my mind, and his flash back about Shanks was pretty heartbreaking. I think it would be the cherry on top if in the end Buggy has a clash of conqueror's haki with Shanks and wins, we know he'll never win in a real fight but after everything we've seen I would be surprised if Buggy didn't have to will to overcome the sea now.

With the last Road Ponegliph being on a constantly moving ship, it's likely that once the Egghead Island arc is over, there will be a mad race to see which Youkou finds him first.

[@topnotchshinobi]

Per Blackbeard’s MO, he’ll probably wait for the Straw Hats, Red Hair Pirates, and Cross Guild to exhaust each other before swooping in to steal the Poneglyph at the last moment. (Or perhaps Buggy has the same plan in mind and will steal the Poneglyph from BB instead)

[@bekirtaner3082]

This chapter for some reason has been the most emotional for some time and the past 3 4 chapters this was really good. Buggy actually some what looking up to Shanks giving up his dream because 1 - He wanted Shanks to become the king of this era and 2 - He knew he couldn't compete with them and now he said ' Naaaah man if he is going now, I will be going after it now ' and stood up to the best swordsmen and one of the smartest characters in the show, made me give instant respect to Buggy. Hell, if he becomes the Pirate King at this point, wouldn't be really mad about it.

[@KingChiggy]

My personal idea on how this will play out is that either Blackbeard kills Shanks beforehand or Shanks and Luffy and fighting Blackbeard and losing on Laugh Tale, and Buggy, before claiming the treasure, will turn away and choose to support the man that his captain chose to carry his will, as well as the kid that Shanks put his faith in, and team up with Luffy to beat Blackbeard. It would be so poetic for Buggy to finally drop his idea of running away and choose to help over just claiming the prize.

[@Ilovemelonss]

[@KingPOTB]

Thinking about it more, We all thought Buggy's Dream/Desire was to be Rich but with this chapter it's now more his back up plan when he gave up on his real dream which had been ruined by Shanks & the reason he "hates" Shanks for the treasure map incident was because yet again Shanks ruined another dream for him

[@atharv7353]

Buggy is single-handedly my favourite One Piece character after this chapter. I can't even begin to explain how satisfying it was to see him show Mihawk and Crocodile who's boss. That's why he's the GOAT.

[@atragonx7939]

Buggy really leveled up as a character in this chapter. Talk about a guy who never lets an opportunity go to waste.

[@JYGtube]

I’m 100% sure Buggy and Luffy will have a rematch, not only because of their shared history and current positions but because of their personalities and DFs too. Luffy’s pretty much the goofiest in his awakening and it’s shows in his fighting style and constant laughing but Buggy is literally Buggy THE CLOWN. A clown I don’t think it needs explaining but there whole job is to make you laugh. Slightly unrelated too but I have a vague memory of there being a silhouette that looked almost identical to the Joyboy one (when he’s holding the spear) but the silhouette instead looks just like Buggy but I can’t remember where I saw it, im sure it was much earlier on in the manga though (maybe someone in the comments can help because I don’t remember).

[@diedichtung2183]

if i were oda, i'd make buggy's nose the one piece.

[@hereje2576]

The real question is, does Mihawk even want to be a pirate? He just wants to do a swordsman and do sword stuff, Buggy just dragged him into the race, and with him not caring at all about anything he’ll probably just accept Mihawk does not need Buggy at all, he just wants Cross Guild to be more chill

[@user-xt4qx8gk5k]

Stop lying, Mihawk is just a coward and weak person who runs away from the strong, as was shown in the story He will never be able to defeat Shanks After Shanks became a Yonko, Mihawk ran away repeatedly I don't blame Mihawk

[@nestog1765]

Let's just hope that Garp makes a safe return and enjoys the new rice cracker flavor. I know the chances are slim but I hope he makes it back alive.

[@chrisnoreika9189]

I'm glad the chapter more clearly depicts mihawks power, where it's not the prospect of any one person, but the entire crews that he literally has to equal, just based upon his reaction he seems to be the only heavy hitter in cross guild and realistically, maybe he could take shanks or Luffy in a 1v1, but the entire crew?

After this chapter, there is no longer any doubt that Buggy is going to be the king of the pirates.

[@theanimeunderworld8338]

For five minutes

[@Sfx_thorfinn]

Don't know why but I want him to become pirate king and not even angry at myself

[@Sfx_thorfinn]

@The Flash Naah in this ch that was something I didn't expect and he's like luffy when he was talking about one piece and I am genuinely excited for the outcome that will be happen and this is a massive set up for the final battle where everything will come together and the race for one piece is a insane now Blackbeard,buggy,shanks all the emperors are making moves and others as a well

[@urekmazino6800]

​@ANIME_BOY_ZORO right to have the balls to say that in front of those 2 is awesome

[@tomgu2285]

Remember mihawk and crocodile still are the main ones. So interesting what they have planned for it. So yeah I know it's buggy's idea but let's be real mihawk and crocodile are the real ones. The real leader of buggys crew.

[@KingJokR]

Knowing Crocodile himself once wished to be Pirate King, Buggy's lecture and declaration probably stung really badly for him

[@michaeljarmer6106]

Out of all the craziness in the last 4 chapters. Buggy declaring his dream of becoming pirate king is my favorite panel out of all of them. Teared up reading that

[@theXDeity]

why do regulars have to wait 10 more days to read officially?? i cant wait this time bro

[@Anshelm77]

And with Buggy being a former Roger pirate, this is not empty talk. You could even say, he's the most experienced pirate of his crew. And it's well within the realm of possibility he already knows how to get to Laugh Tale, might even have all the rubbings in his drawer. Though Shanks didn't seem to have them, so perhaps neither does Buggy. It'll be interesting to see how much do they know.

[@_Dio_Brando_69]

Buggy really went from a meme candidate for Pirate King to an actual candidate for Pirate King in the span of a few pages

[@trongtin7754]

At this point, I pray Buggy to awake his conqueror haki

[@Wellwhatnow]

Buggy’s killin it

[@loukikgodse7250]

The liine which hit me was "You are not next Generations King? Don't you care about following Captain Rogers footsteps?" Man buggy really believed in shanks but felt betrayed because of miscommunication. Kinda reminds me of Luffy and Ussops arguement during water7.

[@microvan1234]

I love the running joke of buggy’s crew loving him so much they continue to get him into trouble with crocodile and Mihawk 🤣

[@flattereddani5669]

i love the little panel when Sengoku asked for Garp cuz he wanted him to try a new rice cracker flavor lol

[@daxitron]

I love that Buggy was given a lot of credibility in this chapter. I also hope he levels up soon and gets some form of future sight haki, because then he can literally be a hard counter to Mihawk.

[@user-xt4qx8gk5k]

[@nsm54]

Buggys as flashy as ever. A true protege of the former pirate king. His speech even made me wanna set sail and find the one piece. Mihawk and crocodile lost points this chapter, its clear they need him to go anywhere

[@aiden..maurer]

I’ve never loved buggy’s character but after this chapter I’ve done a 180, that panel is engraved in my heart, and I love the Mihawk being scared of Zoro headcanon, exactly what I thought as well

Spot on! I loved seeing SH's mentioned w BB and Shanks crews that was awesome

This chapter gave me a good case of the feels for our favorite clown. And I was just so shocked at what happened between him and Mihawk and Crocodile that I had to read it 3 times and watch this video twice! You know we're near the end when the 4 emperors now are racing to the top. Leaving us with this several decades old question to finally within arms reach of being answered. Who will be the next Pirate King

[@jpuh4783]

I’m always loving the Friday morning glr vids

[@lordazazil]

I love the conversation between Tsuru and Sengoku as the brought up what I never thought about. These bounties on the marine's heads get them targeted by the civilians they are protecting. These bounties aren't dangerous because some pirate might go for it. Pirates always fight against the marines. But now even civilians are going for the marine's heads. And man, T-Bone. This hit damn hard.

[@shinatsuji7503]

Of all the people who rivaled Luffy's dream whether to be the pirate king or rule the whole world, Buggy seems to be the strongest contender, he's legit with his dreams.

[@nestog1765]

Crocodile and Mihawk: "Gradually build a Utopia" Chad Buggy D Clown: "Let's claim the One Piece" Crocomom and Midhawk: "But the other Yonko strong..."

[@jobes8315]

Theory time! Buggy will be the Prater king after all is said and done. Roger named the island laugh tale because of the story the one piece told. About how joy boy would return and bring the dawn to the world and the mess will be cleaned up and consolidated by a literal clown. Everyone who witnessed the one piece knew exactly who the clown was, this is why they found it humorous. It's the same reason that Roger only told shanks about it and why shanks refused to adventure with Buggy. They didn't want to interfere with fate. But everywhere luffy goes he brings the dawn and frees the people in a destructive manor. Buggy is always behind him consolidating the power gap left behind and restructuring things in a way that works. Buggy always benefits from luffys endeavors. He's a being so powerful that he could get the likes of Mihawk and crocodile to work together under him, not only that he vibe checked their ideals. Also during the paramount war white beard sparred Buggy and formed that alliance, not because he could use the help from any of the fodder Buggy brought with him, but because Roger told white beard of the laugh tale and he knows that the silly clown plays an important role. Joy boy is the bringer of dawn and enforcer of freedom never meant to rule but to be free, the silly clown just has to clean up his mess in the end as the ruler of the sea

[@patrickwilson9829]

Luffy at Lougetown has gotta be considered a great speech ! Barto went the whole 3 years (timeskip included) wanting to serve him all because of that moment !!

[@brianaccardi331]

I’ve felt buggy was exactly this way since I found out he was on the pirate kings crew. That was the moment I realized he was intentionally miss portrayed on purpose by oda to throw us off.

[@IronicHavoc]

"Despite the lack of feet stands up, and despite the lack of hands claps back" Damn he got bars

[@Goosenpai]

I honestly can't remember the last time One Piece has made me laugh out loud as hard as when Buggy's crew revealed the gaudy clown ship and the juxtaposition of Crocodile and Mihawk getting super annoyed at him the next paneI. I was genuinely moved by Buggy's lil speech too, just as soon as I was done laughing. I loved this chapter!

[@jarrodnisly3333]

I am SO sad that T-Bone died... he was my favorite Marine... Thank you, Liam. Your thoughts made me feel better about his (possible) death.

[@sayansarkar6361]

Now when Cross Guild is in the race they are the only Yonko crew without any Road Poneglyph. So I think after Egghead somehow Straw Hat crew will divide into two groups. Luffy leading one and Zoro leading other and Cross Guild will attack Zoro's group and Mihawk defeats Zoro 2nd time and takes their road Poneglyphs before Mihawk and Zoro's final match. Like Luffy looses to his opponent multiple times before defeating him.

[@jaysonibanez1088]

I literally had Goosebumps all over my body, while reading Buggy's speech and watching this video. When you're nowhere to go, and you find yourself dreaming and aspiring to do what you really wanted to do in your whole life

[@thetacopunch]

Buggy really showed his buggy balls this chapter, took crocodile and Mihawk to school, threw his hat into the pirate king race and showed us all he’s got more than jokes up his sleeve

[@edale2]

I'm shocked, amazed, and appalled that you didn't comment on the "Making you the figurehead was the obvious choice, Chairman Buggy!" line, given Buggy's situation, being a figurehead for Mihawk and Crocodile who teamed up with him because they viewed him as the obvious choice as a fiigurehead. Really, that one panel perfectly sums up Buggy's position in the world at the start of the chapter. being massively blown out of proportion by others, while being used as a figurehead, all while he looks on in abject shock and fear. This is the type of thing you usually pounce on in these videos...

[@anandkarthik9072]

But buggy is not a figurehead now..he's literally their leader..mihawk and crocodile can't do anything against his decisions now

What are the odds that Buggy gets one shot shortly after this, but his crew keeps going in his name forcing croc and mihawk forward

[@OsamaBin_Laggin]

I love how the writers added the touch of sabo referencing the lighting/sfx on the chapter where it looked like he died (go to page 14 right under the two first panels).

[@vanillabean2348]

What if the reason Roger and the crew laughed at Laughtale is because Buggy was the one that was meant to find the one piece, so they laughed because he was the odd one out that stayed on the ship. Left field guess.

[@TheFatalfenix]

Just a random thought but, since Buggy have been in Roger's crew, he must have met Garp back in his prime

[@pigglypoof]

Makes me realize that Roger planned Shanks to inherit his will but what he saw at laftel made him change his mind, that is why Shanks cried

[@jansettler4828]

Shanks cried because of Rogers sickness. Y'all need to stop the fanfiction

[@pigglypoof]

But why cry about it then when he and the rest of the crew knew about it way before this scene
