"One of you killed someone on the street today. Come out now and come with us."
The soldier leader didn't actually know the origin of the incident. He had received orders from his superiors to lead his soldiers to take the person who had killed someone on the street. He didn't need to worry about anything else.
"I'm the one who killed them. They were all heinous human traffickers. There's nothing wrong with me killing them."
As Buggy had guessed, they were really here for the people he had killed earlier. And from the looks of it, their intentions were not simple.
"I don't care about that. You killed someone, so you have to come with me. We'll decide what to do with you. Someone will judge you."
Hearing Buggy's words, the leader didn't have any other thoughts. His orders were to bring him back. He didn't care about anything else.
Buggy heard the leader's words and realized that reason wouldn't work. He didn't want to be taken away by these people. That wasn't his style. Being passive wasn't the best option. It would put him in danger. He wasn't the kind of person who would just sit there and let himself be bound.
"I did nothing wrong. Those people deserved to die. I got rid of a menace for your kingdom. You should be thanking me, not treating me like this. As for you wanting to take me away, you'll have to rely on your skills."
Buggy had a clear conscience about killing those people. As for going with them, that was impossible. In the current situation, no matter how much he argued, if they couldn't reason with him, then they would have to settle it with their fists.
The leader heard Buggy's words and realized that this matter couldn't be easily resolved. The other party wouldn't just surrender and go back with him.
His face became serious. He pointed at Buggy and said to the soldiers behind him, "Arrest them all. If they resist, kill them without mercy."
Although he knew Buggy had killed a group of human traffickers, he had received orders. He had to complete them. He had to bring Buggy back.
Of course, if the other party resisted, there would be no mercy. In a fight, there was no room for mercy. It was either you or me. If they resisted, killing them without mercy was the best option.
The soldiers behind him heard the leader's words and immediately charged towards Buggy and his crew with their swords and knives.
Seeing the soldiers charging, Buggy drew "En'yō" and slashed a wave of sword energy at the ground in front of the soldiers.
This was Buggy's final warning. These soldiers weren't heinous criminals. There was no grudge between them. The other party was just following orders. He wanted to give them one last chance.
If they retreated, they could avoid casualties. If they insisted on fighting them, there would be no mercy. On the battlefield, it was a matter of life and death. No one could blame anyone for dying.
Seeing the scar that the sword energy had created on the ground, the charging soldiers involuntarily stopped. They stared blankly at the scar, shocked. They realized that the other party wasn't someone they could easily mess with. Charging forward would likely lead to their deaths. Everyone subconsciously retreated.
The leader also saw the destruction caused by the sword energy and saw that the soldiers were shocked. He realized that the other party wasn't someone they could easily mess with. Ordinary soldiers wouldn't be of much use.
"You bunch of good-for-nothings, get out of my way. I'll deal with the leader. You deal with the rest of them."
The soldiers heard the leader's words and immediately made way. The leader quickly walked to the front of the soldiers, his eyes fixed on Buggy. His eyes were filled with fear, and his face began to turn serious.
"You're strong, but Illysia is not a place where you can act recklessly. You should surrender quietly. Otherwise, your outcome won't be good."
Although the leader had seen some of Buggy's strength, he was confident that he could take him down. He had his own trump card.
"Oh, I'd like to see what my outcome will be. Don't waste any more words. Let's settle this with our fists."
There was no need to say anything more. And he also wanted to see what this person had that gave him the confidence to stand his ground after Buggy had slashed at him.
After Buggy said this, the leader began to transform. First, his arms turned into wings. Then, his legs turned into claws. His head turned into an owl's head.
Seeing the leader's transformation, Buggy knew that the other party had eaten a Devil Fruit. The Devil Fruit gave him confidence. Seeing his transformation, Buggy knew that the other party had eaten the Zoan-type Bird-Bird Fruit: Owl Form.
This Devil Fruit was powerful, but it wasn't powerful for Buggy.
Zoan-type Devil Fruits were very powerful for ordinary people, but not for strong people. And they were even weaker compared to Logia-type Devil Fruits.
Speaking of this fruit itself, the Owl Form was considered good among birds. First, it was a carnivorous bird, so its physique, destructive power, and some innate advantages wouldn't be bad. If used well, it could become a powerful ability.
It was also considered one of the stronger birds. And since it was a bird, it had a major advantage. It could fly. For ordinary pirates, and those who couldn't fly, it was unbeatable. It was practically invincible.
Of course, this wasn't a problem for Buggy. First, he had mastered the ability to fly. Soru (moonwalk) and Shakujaku (finger pistol) could both attack him. And he also had ranged attacks. A wave of sword energy could reach him. With his current swordsman level, even if he flew higher, it would be useless. One strike would be enough to take him down.
After transforming, the leader immediately flew into the air. His opponent was obviously very strong. He wanted to take advantage of his position in the air to confront his opponent. This would increase his chances of winning.
The leader didn't immediately attack Buggy. He locked onto him. A confident smile appeared on his face.
Buggy didn't rush to attack either. He stood there waiting.
Seeing that Buggy wasn't doing anything, the leader became even more confident. He lowered his guard against Buggy. Under Buggy's gaze, he launched an attack.
The leader's feathers puffed up. Under Buggy's gaze, thousands of feathers shot towards him.
Buggy stood there, motionless. He didn't react at all, even when the feathers reached him. He seemed to be stunned by the attack.
The soldiers saw this scene and immediately charged towards Daddy Masterson and the others. They were very confident in their captain. His ability was monstrous. Not everyone could withstand it. In the past, many people had been defeated by this move. No one had ever dodged it. The captain's use of this move gave them immense courage. They put aside their fear of Buggy and launched their attack.
