Third Person POV
Orange Town, East Blue.
...
...
Buggy crashed directly into one of the houses, but his impact force was just enough to crack the structure.
Buggy's headless body fell to the ground, and his head, still in the air, displayed all the agony of the impact.
"Damn..." was the only muttered word he managed to utter through the pain, unable to breathe as he felt his bones breaking upon impact.
"Come on, I expected more from you..." Luffy taunted, while Buggy still remained in the air with blank eyes.
Meanwhile, Cabaji and Mohji, with their lion, approached Yamato, unaware of how the battle between Buggy and Luffy was going.
"Huh? So, you guys are my opponents?" Yamato asked calmly.
Neither of the two pirates responded as they advanced. Cabaji was rapidly approaching her on a unicycle, wielding a katana, while Mohji was even faster, riding Richie.
Yamato felt no threat from them. She simply leaned to the side, waiting for the lion to jump at her.
*ROOOOOAAAAAR*
The lion leaped with murderous intent towards Yamato.
Using her kanabo, she struck the lion while it was suspended in the air. Spectators could hear bones breaking, and the lion made a whimpering sound, never having a chance.
*MIAAAAAAUUU*
"AHHHHHHHH!"
The lion flew like a bullet with Mohji still mounted on top, heading directly for one of the other houses in the town.
*BOOOM*
The explosion left all the pirates dressed as clowns wide-eyed, watching one of their main members, along with that lion-monster, easily defeated by this strange girl with red and yellow horns.
Cabaji stopped his advance at that moment, sweating profusely as he was too nervous to continue after witnessing that scene. He began to pedal backward, torn by indecision about whether he could face this incredibly powerful girl.
"Where do you think you're going?" He heard a voice behind him. She had been right in front of him just a moment ago, and he hadn't even seen her move, all while wearing an innocent smile.
"Cabaji-San!" The pirates were horrified to see yet another one of their strongest members cornered.
*BOOOM*
Another house was destroyed as Yamato sent him flying alongside his partner.
"How boring, they're all so weak!" Yamato muttered, making everyone who heard it wonder where this monstrous girl had come from.
Seeing that the fight was over and that the other pirates didn't seem willing to continue, Yamato turned her body toward where Luffy was battling Buggy.
By this time, the sounds of the ship's cannons had already ceased. Most likely, their crew had reached the island and was closing in on this camp.
"And..." Buggy was still making groaning sounds, his head reattaching to his broken body in the wreckage. Luffy let him do that calmly.
He quickly shook himself, spat out some saliva, and looked indignantly at the man in the hat.
"YOU BASTARD, THAT WAS A LOW BLOW!" Buggy shouted with a thin voice.
"They say clowns are funny, and I must admit, you do have a strong body to remain conscious after that attack," Luffy said with a calm smile, trying to provoke the man in front of him.
"YAMATO, CAN YOU HANDLE THE REST OF THE CREW?" Luffy yelled to Yamato.
"WHILE I DEAL WITH THIS BIG-NOSED, UGLY, AND UNSTYLISH CLOWN." Luffy smiled at Buggy, releasing smoke as he said all that once again.
"YOU BASTARD, I'LL KILL YOU!!!!" Buggy, if he had any fear due to the man's strength in front of him, his anger had blinded him to it. His hatred fueled his actions as he charged at the man, his waist separating into halves.
With his leg split, it began spinning toward Luffy, just like in the anime, with a blade attached to the front of his boot.
"BARA BARA...SENBEI!"
Luffy, seeing it coming his way, simply dodged it. Buggy's attacks kept coming, and Luffy easily evaded those spinning legs.
"Huh?" Luffy noticed knives flying his way.
He raised his hand, and a firebolt shot towards the knives. The metal disintegrated upon contact with the scorching substance.
"Purple flames? What kind of fruit is this?" Buggy couldn't help but exclaim.
But the clown wasn't intimidated by this power, as he had a sadistic grin on his face, and his arm had no hand on it.
Luffy had already noticed that the missing hand was still on his back, holding a knife, but he patiently waited for Buggy to make his move.
"DIE!" Buggy screamed as his hand flew toward Luffy.
Buggy, seeing that Luffy was not dodging, smiled sadistically.
However, his grin faded as his daggers struck the man's skin, failing to penetrate despite passing through his pirate mantle.
"..."
"..."
"Is that all you've got?" Luffy's voice broke the silence as he asked calmly.
"EHHH???!! Are you a monster?!" Buggy shouted in fear this time.
"A man like you shouldn't be surprised, considering everything you witnessed before starting your own crew, clown," Luffy taunted, noting Buggy's surprise.
"Don't tell me you know..." Buggy was now nervous, as his past was a delicate matter for him.
"Buggy, you're a disappointment. Attacking and robbing civilians in the weakest sea? And to think you were once aboard that ship..." Luffy spoke in a serious tone.
"Huh? WHO ARE YOU!? HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?" Buggy seemed even more nervous now.
"I've already told you who I am. My name is Monkey D. Luffy! The man who will conquer the seas! Do you see this hat?" Luffy took it from his back.
"I made a promise to Shanks, and I intend to keep it!" This statement made Buggy widen his eyes considerably.
"That's the same hat Shanks used! No wonder it looked so familiar!" He exclaimed with his voice in a high-pitched tone.
"While Shanks is an Emperor in the New World, you're here, abusing civilians..." Luffy was genuinely disappointed in Buggy. The clown had become just another pirate, caught in the cycle.
Without saying more, Luffy grabbed Buggy's hand that held the knife, which was still suspended on his back, and slapped it.
"OUCH! That hurts!" Buggy couldn't help but cry out.
Shaking his head in disappointment, Luffy advanced toward Buggy, who didn't even have time to react before taking a punch to the face, immediately knocking him out.
All the pirates present were left stunned as their captain was sent flying into a city building once again.
*BOOOM*
"WHAT?! CAPTAIN BUGGY WAS DEFEATED!" The chorus of voices erupted.
"Yamato, finish off the rest." Luffy ordered Yamato, who was still taking down the fleeing pirates with ease, moving faster.
Yamato, now using all her speed, disappeared from the area and began moving among the remaining
, unconscious pirates, swiftly knocking them out.
In a short time, the whole place was filled with pirates on the ground, unconscious and groaning in pain.
Luffy, satisfied with that, turned his gaze to the cage where the girl named Nami was. The girl had a bewildered look, not fully comprehending what was happening.
"Yo." Luffy announced his presence as he walked over to her, pulling her out of her dazed state.
Nami, still extremely surprised, looked at the tall man in front of her without knowing what to say. She had been expecting her death just moments ago, but now she was alive, facing these strange people who had appeared out of nowhere and defeated the pirates with such ease.
"Hi... Hello?" She stammered in front of this relentless man.
