Luffy looked around as he ran through the forest, spotting several other pirates who had also landed on the island and were now fighting each other.
"Everyone's gone crazy over that treasure! This is my perfect chance to grab it before anyone else!"
"Luffy! Don't go ahead!"
Zoro called out as he caught up, with Nami and Sanji also approaching from behind.
They kept running until they exited the forest and entered a rocky plain.
Suddenly, someone jumped at Luffy from the side.
"Straw Hat! Die!"
Luffy noticed just in time and jumped away to face the attack from a hand made of metal objects.
It was Eustass Kid, his left arm made of metal.
"You won't get close to that treasure!" Kid said menacingly.
"You want it? You'll have to go through me first!" Luffy grinned as he prepared to fight.
Zoro paused to watch them fight, but then unsheathed two swords to block an attack from Kid's crewmate, Killer, who swung at him with a pair of scythes.
*CLANK* *CLANK* *CLANK*
Their swords clashed with such force that a crater formed beneath Zoro's feet.
"So, you're my opponent?"
"If my captain has a problem with your captain, then I'll fight you!" Killer eyed Zoro.
"We'll leave it to you guys!" Nami shouted as she ran past them with Sanji.
The two Straw Hat Pirates ran ahead, but suddenly, Urouge leaped down from a cliff toward them, ready to punch Nami.
*BAM*
Sanji stood in front of her, raising his leg to block the punch.
"Don't you dare touch Nami!"
"Nice block! But can you keep it up?" Urouge grinned widely and threw a few more punches, but Sanji blocked them all while kicking back at him.
*BAM* *BAM* *BAM*
*BOOM*
As the two continued their fight, an explosion hit Urouge, knocking him back, but Sanji detected it in time and dodged it.
They turned and saw Bege, with his legs transformed into tank treads, moving toward them. His body was hollow, where his crew fired cannonballs.
"Step aside if you don't want to get blown up! None of you can match my army!" He said confidently.
A door opened in his body, and several of his men, armed with guns, came out and surrounded Urouge and Sanji, aiming their weapons at them.
*GRRRRRMMMBBB*
The ground suddenly shook, and out of nowhere, a massive dinosaur charged into the scene, grabbing one of Bege's men with its mouth and tossing him aside. The others scattered in fear as the dinosaur began swatting them with its tail.
"Drake!" Bege recognized the newcomer, surprised and angry.
Drake transformed back from his dinosaur form into his human form.
"If you've got time to fight here, you'd better try harder to reach the real goal!"
He then ran off.
Some of Bege's men aimed to shoot him, but then a woman dashed past them, touching them as she did. Their ages changed instantly—some turned into children, while others grew old.
"Ha ha ha! I'm the one who will get that treasure!" Boney laughed mockingly.
"Damn! This place is getting really chaotic!"
Sanji looked around and saw countless pirates beating each other relentlessly.
Amid the chaos, Hawkins sat on a rock, examining various cards.
"The chance of obtaining the treasure: 30%. The chance of dying during this: 5%. Hmmm… What strategy should I use?"
Luffy finally escaped from Kid after a brief skirmish and pressed forward.
"Nothing's going to stop me now!"
But then an explosion hit his body, sending him flying.
"AHHH!"
"Apapapa!" Apoo laughed from behind him.
"I'm the one who's gonna get that treasure!"
While Luffy was down in pain, Apoo dashed ahead, heading toward a ship visible in the distance.
"Room! Shambles!"
A large transparent dome suddenly formed in the area where Apoo was.
Then, a log in front of him disappeared, and Law appeared in its place. He swung his sword at Apoo, who jumped back just in time to dodge it. But even though the sword didn't hit Apoo, his body was cut in half at the chest.
"What the hell?!"
Apoo was shocked as his two halves fell to the ground, yet he was still alive and not bleeding.
"No hard feelings." Law smirked before heading toward the ship.

"As expected of the Supernovas from the Worst Generation, but... it's not enough."
In the spectator's seat, Eiji watched their fight, unimpressed compared to the other onlookers.
Having seen the peak powerhouses of this world like Garp, Big Mom, Kaido, Mihawk, and others, the supernovas still had a long way to go.
"They're still growing; I shouldn't underestimate them." Eiji said calmly.
"This guy's luck is outrageous, maybe on par with King from One Punch Man."
"Buggy might not be as strong as Shanks, even though they were both apprentices on Roger's ship, but his luck is definitely better than Shanks."
"Luck, huh… It's truly beyond control and can't be mastered."
Eiji sighed at Buggy's incredible luck. Compared to his own terrible luck, Buggy had quite an impressive stroke of fortune.

Amid the chaos, Buggy had managed to get the treasure first before anyone else. Along with his comrades, Alvida and Galdino, the clown pirate stood atop a pile of gold coins, holding a small treasure chest.
"Finally, I got it! The captain's secret treasure that I never knew about!" Buggy said excitedly.
"Only someone as great as me deserves something like this!"
"What are you doing? Just open it already!" Alvida impatiently urged him.
Buggy quickly opened the chest, and when he saw what was inside, his eyes widened.
"What's in it?"
Confused by his reaction, Galdino asked curiously.
"T-This... Are you kidding me?!" Buggy said, trembling and with snot dripping from his big nose.
The treasure's contents were beyond his wildest expectations!
"Why is this here?!"
