Buggy D Clown

Chapter 104: Chapter 103



Looking at Buggy, who was delivering a passionate speech on the high platform, and the people of new Kaizou no Kuni, who were enthusiastically cheering below, Dragon couldn't help but fall into deep thought. 

"Why is it that we don't see such happy and passionate people every time we overthrow a country and help complete a revolution?" Dragon mused to himself. Could it be that the people of Wano are naturally more enthusiastic? He dismissed this idea almost immediately. Seeing the passionate belief in their eyes, he realized it wasn't about the nature of the people at all. 

"If they were this rowdy, they wouldn't have been so easily suppressed by Kaido and Orochi," Dragon thought. No, the conclusion was clear: Buggy made it all happen.

On a high-rise building closest to the square in the Flower Capital, Shanks, Dragon, Hawkeye, and the major cadres of the Buggy Pirates watched Buggy's passionate speech.

"When did Buggy become so talkative?" Shanks wondered aloud.

"To be honest, my blood boils when I hear him!" Doringo exclaimed.

"Just now, Enel rolled his eyes at me. I didn't think he was hot-blooded enough, so I punched him to make him feel it! Except Roger, Buggy is so intense," Bullet laughed. "Making people excited, even Roger back then was far inferior to him!"

"Hey! Bullet, is it really okay for you to say that? His deputy-deputy captain is still here!" Shanks, prompting more laughter.

"Hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter, the camaraderie evident as they shared in the moment, united by Buggy's unexpected charisma and the fervor of the revolution they were witnessing.

After Buggy announced the rules of the "Kaizo no Kuni" on the stage, the entire country erupted into a carnival-like celebration. Standing on the platform, Buggy opened his arms as if to embrace the whole nation, his clown makeup accentuating his wild and exuberant expression. The people saw his gesture and responded with the loudest cheers and shouts of support.

"Long live Emperor Buggy! Long live the Kaizo no Kuni!"

At that moment, Buggy raised his hand to signal for silence, and almost immediately, the entire Kaizo no Kuni fell quiet. Buggy shook his head slightly at everyone.

"It shouldn't be 'Long live emperor Buggy,' but 'Long live the people, Long live the Kaizo no Kuni!' Why do I say that? Because the future of our country will be determined by your blood and sweat, and it will be your hard work and strength that will protect you! So, the people should be first! Everything that benefits the people is correct. So I say, Long live the people."

As soon as Buggy said this, not only were the people of Wano Kuni stunned, but even Dragon and the others watching from the tall buildings in the distance were shocked. They all looked at Buggy in disbelief. When the entire country was cheering for him, shouting his name, he said, "Long live the people!"

Those four words felt like a heavy mountain weighing down on everyone's hearts. It was a feeling they had never experienced before, one that left them speechless and profoundly moved.

Dragon and the others tried to process what they had just heard. "Put people before everything else. Is that what you think, Buggy?" they wondered, amazed by his unexpected depth and vision.

Buggy had brought the ideals from different worlds into this new world, unsure if there was fertile ground for such ideological growth here. But in that moment, he had planted a seed in the hearts of everyone who heard him.

Dragon's heart, like everyone else's, was touched and inspired by Buggy's words. He realized that Buggy was not just a leader but a visionary, someone who truly believed in the power and importance of the people. This realization left him and everyone else in awe of Buggy's remarkable and unpredictable nature.

But once the seeds are planted, whether they can germinate depends on the changing times and the world!

The entire Kaizo no Kuni fell silent at this moment. After a brief pause, it's unknown who yelled first, but then an overwhelming momentum took over!

"Long live the people!!! Long live Kaizo no Kuni!!!"

At this moment, the people of Kaizo no Kuni seemed too enthusiastic, their eyes full of reverence and shock as they looked at the man on the stage. Only such a man could say such a thing, right? In an era where everyone places a "god" above their heads, in a world where ideas have been imprisoned for more than 800 years, suddenly someone says he will put the people above all. It was like dropping a bomb in a tranquil lake!

Astonishing and unbelievable. Yet, looking forward, there's a sense of anticipation. This is Buggy's personality! That's called charisma!

On another high platform in Flower City Square, Yamato, who had been freed by Buggy from her collar, bracelet, and anklet, also looked at the man on the stage in shock. Compared to his ideals and actions, she suddenly felt how naive the diary she read as a child was. If you don't explore, don't experience, how can you know the real world? Buggy, I understand!

Meanwhile, Robin, who was watching Buggy's speech with the Buggy Pirates' cadres, was also lost in thought. In terms of knowledge, she was undoubtedly the most learned of all. Because her understanding far exceeded everyone else's, the impact of Buggy's words on her was deep. Among all present, only Robin grasped Buggy's true intention. This man was planting a seed not just for this country, but for the entire world!

The seed of freedom was already germinating in the form of Piracy in the world. Now a seed called Equality among the People was planted. At the moment, this seed is tiny; perhaps it will only germinate and grow in the soil of Wanokuni. But one day, when this seed grows into a mighty tree, it will stand on the world stage, display its sharpness, and raise its banner!

Robin suddenly recalled Buggy's words to her not long ago, "A single spark can change this world?"

What a man, always full of surprises! Thinking of this, Robin couldn't help but smile. But when she glanced at the domineering yet overwhelmed empress, her smile faded, replaced by a twinge of anger.

Just as Robin was thinking about some other things, Buggy's next words made her stop in her tracks.

"Okay! People of Kaizo no Kuni, our broadcast is about to be finished." Buggy held up three fingers. "Next, there are three policies I want to announce!"

Announce Three policies? Wasn't Kaido already dead? Is it some kind of new policy?

As everyone pondered this, Buggy's shout echoed through the ears of everyone in Wanokuni, "From now on, there will be no distinction between high and low in Kaizo no Kuni; no distinction between civilians and warriors; no distinction between nobles and commoners!"

Why are aristocrats at the top? The bloodline is extremely noble? None exist!

Perhaps life is not always fair, but personalities are similar! People of Kaizo no Kuni, you are free!

"Shut up!!!"

At that moment, Buggy's roar echoed across the entire Kaizo no Kuni. Hearing the anger in Buggy's tone, everyone in the Buggy Pirates was stunned. Captain Buggy was furious; even when facing Kaido and Big Mom, or under attack by Blackbeard, he had never been this angry. But why now?

Not only were the Buggy Pirates puzzled, but so was everyone in the original Wanokuni. Yet, out of obedience to Buggy's words, they silenced up one by one.

"The reason I chose Wanokuni! The reason I established Kaizo no Kuni on this land is to do these three things!"

Only then did everyone notice that Buggy's three raised fingers had never been lowered. They heard Buggy take a deep breath and shout. "Fair! For too long, this land has been shackled by oppression and inequality!" Buggy continued, his voice unwavering and resolute. "Fair! No more will the powerful trample on the weak! F**king fair! This is a new dawn, where every man, woman, and child stands as equals, unchained and free!"

Though the words were vulgar, they were like a sharp knife piercing hearts, making everyone who heard them tremble uncontrollably.

At that moment, all the people of Wanokuni finally understood what kind of country their future Kaizo no Kuni would be. They also understood how the emperor of this country, now called the strongest man in the world, regarded them. From these words, they realized that this man truly came to save the poor people of Wanokuni.

Then, the entire Kaizo no Kuni erupted in a wave of celebration.

On the top floor of a brothel on the outskirts of Flower City Square, Kozuki Hiyori watched the high-spirited man on the platform in the distance with a complicated expression.

At that moment, the entire Flower Capital—no, the entire Wanokuni—no, it should now be called Kaizo no Kuni! The entire Kaizo no Kuni was cheering for this man! Compared to the peace, equality, and freedom he brought, his father seemed insignificant.

"Kangshiro, do you think we must continue?" Kozuki Hiyori suddenly spoke.

Kageshiro, staring at the man on the high platform with a frenzied look, didn't hear her words at all.

"Did you listen to what I just said?" Kozuki Hiyori turned to see Kageshiro, his face as fanatical as the people below. She smiled slightly. Even Kageshiro was like this; let alone others.

"That, Hiyori-sama..." Kageshiro finally reacted, speaking in embarrassment.

But before he could finish, Hiyori smiled slightly and raised her hand to interrupt him. "Didn't you hear what the man said? There is no distinction between high and low in our Kaizo no Kuni. From now on, you and I should be friends; just call me Hiyori."

Kageshiro's body shook, and he looked at his former master in disbelief. As if not seeing his reaction, Hiyori suddenly said, "I heard Kurozumi Orochi was caught."

"Right!" Kageshiro gloated. "That guy tried to use his fruit ability to escape, but he was cut down, leaving only his head!"

"Oh?" Kozuki Hiyori couldn't hide her surprise. "Did the man say what was going to happen to him?"

Kageshiro shook his head. "I don't know about that. Hey, wait a minute, look over there!"

Hearing Kyoshiro's awkward change of words, Kozuki Hiyori couldn't help but chuckle, then subconsciously turned her head to look.

Under the golden platform where Buggy stood, a group of people were suddenly pushed up on the left and right sides. They were all tied up with seastone chains, bound tightly like rice dumplings, with only their heads exposed. Despite this, it was easy to recognize them as the three plagues of the Beasts Pirates and the Tobiroppo. Even some of the Numbers from the Beasts Pirates were being escorted up one by one.

These people were all made to kneel in a row on the high platform of yellow sand. The expressions on the faces of the Wanokuni people below varied: some were angry, some disdainful, some sneering, and some terrified. Yet, all their mouths were gagged.

A group of specially selected warriors stepped onto the stage and stood behind these cadres, excluding the strongest three calamities and Kurozumi Orochi. Then, several people who joined these warriors made Kozuki Hiyori exclaim in surprise.

Kozuki Hiyori's eyes widened in surprise. "Is that Kikunojo?"

Kyoshiro glanced at the figures on the stage, his expression shifting. "Wait! And that guy, Kawamatsu, where has he been all this time?"

Hiyori's gaze darted to another familiar face. "And is that Ashura Doji?"

Kyoshiro nodded, noting the presence of more figures. "Inuarashi and Nekomamushi too!"

Hiyori gasped in amazement. "My God, Izou is here as well!"

Kozuki pointed out a small, elderly man with recognition. "Hey, that little old man seems familiar. No, he is Hyogoro the Flower! Where did Buggy find them all?"

Hearing Kozuki Hiyori's exclamations and questions, Kyoshiro thoughtfully replied:

"If I had some doubts about Kawamatsu's appearance before, then with Hyogoro the Flower here, it must be Buggy who captured the SMILE Factory and liberated everyone inside. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Hyogoro to come to assist with this. It seems even Hyogoro approves of Buggy!"

Kozuki Hiyori was equally amazed.

After Buggy ordered all the cadres of the Beasts Pirates to be brought up, the whole of Wanokuni erupted into cheers once again. Everyone was looking forward to what was to come. At this moment, all the people of Wanokuni had a single thought: they wanted to see blood flow like rivers. They believed that after witnessing this, they would completely transform into citizens of Kaizo no Kuni. Wanokuni would be history.

Buggy shared this sentiment. He intended to show that those responsible for the suffering of Wanokuni would pay the ultimate price. With Kaido fleeing, these people had to use their blood to honor the souls who had died in vain on the land of Kaizo no Kuni over the years.

With a snap of his fingers, Buggy decisively declared:

"The hour has come! Use their blood to commemorate the heroic spirits of Wanokuni. Use their lives to sanctify this land! The new empire has blossomed unyielding in death. Blood for blood, tooth for tooth! Execution!"

As Buggy's voice echoed, the execution began on the top floor of the high platform. A series of high-level armed Haki emissions surged from the warriors' long knives. Determined to ensure these bound monsters were killed, they used all their strength.

King, Queen, Jack, and Kurozumi Orochi never imagined their deaths would be so absurd—executed in front of the entire Wanokuni. It was an insult to them, but their curses and pleas were ignored by Buggy. They had persecuted Wanokuni for over 20 years, tormenting countless people of Kaizo no Kuni.

Not surprisingly, the dozen or so cadres of the Beasts Pirates were all splattered with blood, their heads falling to the ground as the warriors struck with long swords imbued with Haki.

Seeing this, all the people of Wanokuni wept with a mix of anger and relief. Buggy understood that from this moment on, Wanokuni would bid farewell to the past and embrace the new Kaizo no Kuni.

In the annals of history, if there were to be a list of the most significant high-level executions following those of Gol D. Roger, the Celestial Dragons, and Portgas D. Ace, this one would undoubtedly be etched in future history books. It will be remembered not only for its scale and impact but also for the shift it signifies in the balance of power and justice within the world.
