Chapter 61: RBTC: Chapter 61
---
Buggy's Haki, as he had guessed, didn't have much of an impact on Sakazuki.
But Sakazuki was affected for a moment. His forward momentum paused for a second. The Flame Hurricane also moved forward in that instant. Buggy seized this opportunity and swung En'yō with all his might. From directly above Sakazuki, a Flame Hurricane charged towards him.
Facing these two attacks simultaneously, Sakazuki wasn't at a significant advantage. The Flame Hurricane that came down from the sky was blocked by his other hand, but the two attacks forced him to fall towards the sea below. For a Devil Fruit user, this could be a fatal danger.
This was Buggy's goal. He didn't think these two attacks could directly eliminate Sakazuki. He just wanted to knock Sakazuki into the sea. If Sakazuki fell into the sea, then he would have won the battle.
Sakazuki saw the sea getting closer and closer. He realized the danger. He was a Devil Fruit user. Once he fell into the seawater, he would be powerless. He might be at Buggy's mercy.
Relying on his exceptional combat instincts, Sakazuki reacted immediately. He ignored the Flame Hurricane attacking him from the front and launched a full-powered attack. His magma fist quickly extended towards the center of the Flame Hurricane above. In an instant, a large hole was blown open in the center of the hurricane. The fist, with its undiminished power, attacked Buggy in the air.
Facing this attack, Buggy didn't expect it. He thought Sakazuki would dodge this attack with all his might. He didn't expect him to attack him instead of defending himself against this danger.
When the fist reached him, he could only block it with En'yō in front of his chest. He didn't have time to react any other way.
Buggy was sent flying upwards by the attack. After taking the blow, he fainted in the air.
Sakazuki's situation was even more critical. He had almost no defense against Buggy's two attacks. As he swung his fist, the two attacks directly hit him. He fell into the sea. He also fainted as he fell.
At the same time, a black shadow instantly swept past, catching the unconscious Buggy, who was flying towards the sky.
It was a golden eagle the size of a human. It was Lafitte, who had eaten the Golden Eagle Fruit. He had been observing the situation from above.
The situation here was too intense. He couldn't intervene. So, he had been waiting for an opportunity from above.
Just as Buggy was about to win, something unexpected happened. Buggy was knocked unconscious by the other party. Lafitte immediately caught the unconscious Buggy.
After catching Buggy, Lafitte took a moment to look at the sea where Sakazuki had fallen, but he couldn't see anything. Even the surface of the sea, which had been attacked by the two hurricanes, was calm, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this, Lafitte was helpless. He had also eaten a Devil Fruit. He couldn't go into the sea to look for Sakazuki. Buggy's current condition wasn't good either. He couldn't wait here for long. After thinking for a while, he made a decision. Lafitte directly grabbed Buggy and chased after the Glory, which was retreating.
Not long after Lafitte disappeared, a figure, whose fate was unknown, surfaced from the sea.
A week later, the Marines issued a bounty poster for Buggy.
The bounty amount was extremely high for a newcomer like Buggy. The Marines issued a bounty of 100 million Berries.
This was not an amount that a newly-bountied pirate could be given.
Of course, the reason for Buggy's bounty didn't mention the Illysia Kingdom. Instead, it mentioned that he had caused irreparable damage to the Lubni Kingdom and briefly mentioned that Buggy had successfully escaped from Sakazuki. That's why he was given a bounty of 100 million Berries. They also gave Buggy a nickname that they considered both shameful and ironic: "Clown" Buggy.
The news of Buggy's bounty shocked many people.
In the first half of the Grand Line, a young man with red hair was smiling as he looked at Buggy's bounty poster.
"Hahaha, crewmates, let's have a feast! To celebrate Buggy's official bounty."
The speaker was Shanks. He had gathered his crew and officially arrived at the Grand Line.
He had also seen Buggy's bounty poster today. He knew his current situation. He was very excited that Buggy was bounty-listed for 100 million Berries right away. This proved how much the Marines valued Buggy and how strong he was now. This made him very proud. This was his brother. His brother was strong. How could they not have a feast to celebrate?
"Captain, what's got you so happy?"
"Yeah, Captain."
"Yeah, Captain."
......…
Many crew members chimed in, asking Shanks repeatedly.
"Hahaha, my brother Buggy has been bounty-listed. And he's been given a bounty of 100 million Berries. How could I not be happy?"
Beckman, who was beside him, pondered for a moment and said, "Is this the Buggy who was an apprentice on Roger's ship?"
Beckman had heard Shanks tell stories about his past. He had heard about his past with Buggy.
Hearing the name Buggy, he quickly realized who it was. But he wasn't entirely sure. After all, a bounty of 100 million Berries didn't match the Buggy that Shanks had described as not very strong and constantly bullied by him.
But seeing Shanks' smile, he had some guesses. But he wasn't entirely sure.
"Yes, it's him. I didn't expect him to grow to this level. Even the madman Sakazuki couldn't get the upper hand against him. And the bounty from the World Government proves how much the Marines value him. Maybe Sakazuki even suffered a major defeat at his hands."
"Hahaha, that's definitely worth celebrating. The captain's brother has reached this level. Let's have a feast!"
The Red Hair Pirates held a feast. Shanks, who was drinking, went to the bow alone. He looked into the distance and seemed to be muttering, "Hahaha, Buggy, good for you. We'll see each other soon."
At the Shank's Bar in the Sabaody Archipelago, a bespectacled, somewhat refined middle-aged man with a special aura about him was looking at the newspaper in his hand. He couldn't help but smile.
"Hahaha, Shakky, look. Even that little brat Buggy has grown to this level. What a promising young man."
"You old geezer, I saw it a long time ago. Don't show off your two little apprentices in front of me. Last time, you showed off Shanks' bounty in front of me for a week. If you do it again this time, I'll make sure you can't get out of bed for half a month."
Hearing Shakky say this, Rayleigh shut his mouth, but the smile on his face didn't disappear. At the same time, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
In the second half of the Grand Line, on a pirate ship shaped like a giant whale, a middle-aged man with a physique like a small giant was also looking at the newspaper in his hand.
"Yo, isn't this that red-nosed brat? He's grown to this level. The brats on Roger's ship are really something else."
Looking at the newspaper, Whitebeard seemed to see two brats charging towards him. A hint of reminiscence flashed in his eyes. He remembered that man.
On Whole Cake Island in the New World, a tall, curvy, slightly plump middle-aged woman was also looking at the newspaper in her hand. Seeing this promising newcomer, she had an idea.
After a while, Charlotte Linlin looked at her eldest son, Perospero, and said, "Find out about this kid. If he's worth recruiting, I'll marry Smoothie to him."
"Mom, that, Smoothie might not agree."
Looking at her eldest son, Charlotte Linlin continued, "Didn't you hear me? Go find out. Don't talk back."
Seeing Charlotte Linlin's slightly angry gaze, Perospero, as the eldest son, lowered his head and hurriedly said, "Understood, Mom. I'll go find out right away."
Looking at Perospero, who had already walked away, Charlotte Linlin couldn't help but say, "Kid, don't disappoint me."
In an instant, the newspaper in Charlotte Linlin's hand turned to ashes.
On Onigashima, Kaido's territory in the New World, he also saw the newspaper in his hand. A hint of regret flashed in his eyes. He drank his sake and said, "Why isn't he a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user? What a pity. When will my Beasts Pirates be complete?"
Then, he didn't hesitate to throw away the newspaper and continued drinking his sake.
Many other people also paid attention to Buggy's information, including Moria, Crocodile, Mihawk, and the various sea lords of the time.
Moria and the others, who had some connection with Buggy, were very excited to see the information about him. They were looking forward to seeing him again.
As for the current sea lords, some wanted to recruit Buggy, and some wanted to eliminate him. In short, many people had many different ideas.
In short, with the appearance of this bounty poster, Buggy's name spread throughout the entire world of One Piece.
