Chapter 33 Buggy D CLown/Anywhere Doorman Buleno (Patreon)

"Shanks?" Buggy pondered for a moment before responding, "Of course, he knows. If he has the time, I believe he will come."

Hearing this, Gabban appeared thoughtful.

At that moment, Bullet chimed in, "Shanks, is he also one of the Four Emperors today?"

Buggy smiled and replied, "What? If you still want to treat him the same way as before, then you should hold off for now, Bullet. Today, Shanks has grown to a terrifying level! After spending so much time in prison, you need to take his time to recover."

Bullet looked surprised and asked, "Do you think so highly of Shanks?"

"How could I not?" Buggy responded.

Based on what I know from my previous life, Shanks should be the last of the Four Emperors. And considering the law of progression, the later someone enters the field, the stronger their combat power should be. Moreover, Shanks displayed the most formidable presence among the Four Emperors during the later stages of the Pirate Era. He could make Vice Admirals kneel with his Conqueror's Haki and even deter Marine Admiral Green Bull from making a move.

In the theatrical version, he even went as far as to directly overpower Fujitora, disabling him, and when faced with two Admirals, he showed strength without weakness. From then on, the other Emperors seemed like a laughing stock! It's safe to say that the Shanks who appeared later truly embodied the strength of a Four Emperor with his Haki.

In contrast, those Yonko like Big Mom and Kaido who were taken down by Luffy, Law, and Kid, didn't quite measure up to Shanks.

Hearing Buggy's confidence, some people couldn't help but swallow hard, visibly shocked by the news.

"Shanks!" Luffy's ears perked up again, and he quickly ran over to Buggy. "Uncle Buggy, did you just mention Shanks?"

"Yes!" Luffy continued, "I remember you said you knew Shanks before! Uncle Rayleigh mentioned him too."

"Uncle Rayleigh? Where is he?" Gabban looked at Luffy with suspicion.

Luffy seemed puzzled and replied, "Uncle Rayleigh is just Uncle Rayleigh! He used to be a coating general in Sabaody Archipelago and now lives with Sister Shakky. I was looking forward to meeting him after the Summit War and receiving a surprise, but it seems that this kid spoiled it."

"Oh, that Rayleigh guy! This fits his style!" Gabban laughed heartily.

Doringo joined in, "Hahaha, did that Rayleigh guy fell into Shakky's grasp?"

Sunbell added with a smile, "It's good to know Rayleigh is alright."

Bullet remained silent, but a rare ferocious smile appeared on his face. It was unnerving, to say the least.

Buggy patted Luffy on the head and said, "Shanks and I used to be Captain Roger's crew members, so naturally, we knew each other. If he has the time, you might get to meet him."

"Really? Will Shanks come too? That would be amazing!" Luffy exclaimed excitedly, clutching the brim of his straw hat with both hands.

Ivankov, Crocodile, Rob Lucci, and the others sat there, engrossed in the unfolding revelations.

Unexpectedly, Lord Buggy and Shanks both sailed on the same ship, the Pirate King! It all made sense now. Buggy's terrifying strength came from being associated with someone as formidable as Shanks during the same period.

The question remained: why did this man hide so deeply all these years? Was it indeed due to the unseen changes of the millennium, as he claimed? Regardless, one thing was certain; he was a man worth following.

Suddenly, Redfield, who stood at the bow, exclaimed in surprise, catching everyone's attention. They followed his gaze and saw Lucci and his team.

Lucci, who was currently receiving treatment from Ivan, noticed the intense gazes directed at him and couldn't help but feel pressured. He asked Buggy hesitantly, "What's is.."

Squeak!

As the space door behind Rob Lucci opened, Buggy and the others suddenly saw a big man in a black suit with two horn-like hairstyles protruding from the space door.

At the same time, the man stretched out his hands, trying to pull Rob Lucci into the space door.

Whoosh!

But in the next moment, a white-haired figure suddenly appeared in front of the space gate.

Snapped!

Before the man in the horned suit could react, he grabbed his neck and lifted him out of the space gate.

"What! How come?!"

The man in the horned suit dangled in the air, held firmly by Redfield with one hand, like an adult carrying a child, making him unable to struggle at all.

<Undertaker.>

The terrifying force shocked and terrified him.

At this time, Rob Lucci, Lucci, and the others also reacted, turning around almost simultaneously.

They turned around and saw the familiar figure.

"Blueno!!!" Lucci, Kaku, and Fukurou exclaimed in surprise almost at the same time.

"Huh? Acquaintance?" Redfield, who was pinching Blueno's neck, looked at Lucci and the others in surprise, then set his eyes on Buggy.

Buggy nodded slightly.

Thump!

Seeing this, Redfield immediately let go, causing Blueno to fall on the deck.

"Hoo-hoo--" This release gave Blueno room to breathe, and he pressed his hands on the ground, panting wildly.

Being pinched by Redfield before, he was not only physically unwell but also mentally oppressed.

But Blueno was an elite from CP9, so he adjusted quickly. At this time, he also noticed that something seemed to be wrong.

"Lucci, Kaku, Fukurou?" Blueno asked, stunned.

Jabra on the side suddenly yelled, "Call me by my name too! Let me play for a while, you bastard Blueno!"

Kumadori who covered his heart in pain, added, "Yeah, take this old man's name too."

Seeing their appearance, the corners of Blueno's mouth twitched, and finally, his eyes fell on Lucci.

"Is that so..."

Lucci didn't hide anything and told Blueno what happened after they were led away from CP0.

"sigh----" Hearing this, Blueno heaved a long sigh of relief, then turned to look at Buggy, smiled, knelt down on his knees with a "bang," and knocked on Buggy.

"Master Buggy, thank you for saving our partners' lives!"

Seeing this scene, Buggy also smiled. It was a pity that Blueno had such a practical ability. Unexpectedly, this guy came to his door by himself.

"Hahaha, I also value your potential."

Buggy pointed to Blueno, "I'm especially interested in the ability of your fruit. How about joining me, Lucci, and the others?"

"Of course!" Blueno said without hesitation, "Thank you, Lord Buggy, for taking us in. Otherwise, we would definitely be killed by the World Government sooner or later."

Hearing what Blueno said, Buggy also sighed a little in his heart.

Based on the information Buggykne in the previous life. He guessed that the CP9 sky group, except for Lucci and Kaku, were all removed by the World Government after the Enies Lobby incident. This has always made him feel very sad.

After all, these people were the first to appear on the stage, and they were some of the most impactful villains.

People who watch One Piece for the first time will definitely be impressed by the six styles.

After Lucci and the others heard Blueno's words, their smiles also subsided a lot. They never imagined that after working for the World Government for ten or twenty years, they would be expelled just because of a mission failure. The fact that the World Government even wanted to destroy their hometown, Guanhao Island, left them very dissatisfied.

Lucci seemed to have thought of something and immediately looked at Blueno, asking, "Blueno, where's Kalifa? Is she not with you?"

Kaku and the others also turned their heads to look at Blueno.

Blueno smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. After you lured CP0 away, Kalifa and I hid. Originally, we were worried that we wouldn't have enough strength to rescue you. But unexpectedly, in that desperate situation, my fruit ability seemed to have made a further breakthrough, giving me the power to rescue you. It took me a few days of familiarization and exercise to discover that the ability of this fruit seems to be far more than I initially thought. As long as I've seen or contacted people, as long as they haven't lost their breath of life, I can use the door fruit's ability to open a door near them."

Hearing what Blueno said, Gabban and the others who came over gasped slightly.

"Isn't this ability too convenient?"

"Is it the legendary arbitrary door of time and space?"

"This should be the fruit awakening, right?"

"By the way, if you use this ability to save Ace, wouldn't it be faster and more convenient!?"

"That's true, but you still need to divert the main combat power of the guard Ace before you can do it. Otherwise, even I am able to find him in advance, and that old guy Garp won't let this guy get Ace so easily!" When Redfield said this, everyone was shocked.

Only then did they remember that Naval Headquarters was still guarded by that Marine Hero. That was a monster comparable to Redfield!'
