As Luffy is crushing Buggy hand and tells him that their going to fight him.
Monkey D. Luffy: I'm here to kick your ass, just like I promised!
William McCarty: And you get ready I'm going to give you a good Ass kicking too!
Soon Luffy let Buggy hand go and it came back right to him as he see's 5 thieves standing right in front of him and he just had enough of them.
Buggy: Straw Hat! You bastards! You actually have the guts to return here... To Face Captain Buggy!
Soon Nami looks at Will as he focused on Buggy.
Nami: Listen, all I want is the map and treasure. That's all.
William McCarty: Yeah, yeah, fine you can have the map and treasure.
Soon The mayor coughs before getting angry at why the brats are here.
Boodle: You brats, what are you doing here? You outsiders should mind your own business.
As Luffy looks at the mayor he listens to him as well as William, Arthur, Zoro, and Nami.
Arthur Winchester: Listen Mister. These Pirates are out of your league if Luffy hadn't grabbed Buggy's hand you would have been killed.
Boodle: I know... but still, this is my fight. This is my town, and I will protect it!
Soon as Boodle grabbed his makeshift spear ready to fight at Captain Buggy and his crew.
Boodle: Don't interfere!
Soon Luffy made a quick action move that shocked everyone there. He attacked by grabbing Boodles head and knocked him out cold.
Nami: Wha...
Roronoa Zoro: ...
Arthur Winchester: ...
William McCarty: Guhh...
Buggy: Wha...
Boodle: *Groans*
Nami/William: What on earth are you doing?!
Soon Luffy claps his hands together as he was dusted his hands.
William McCarty: Why did you do that to the mayor?
Soon Luffy turns around and gives his straight forward answer.
Monkey D. Luffy: He was in the way.
William McCarty: Huh?!
Roronoa Zoro: Good idea.
Arthur Winchester: Yeah, I like the mayor but he might cause a complication with out fight here, he could be injured or worse.
Roronoa Zoro: It's better this way.
William McCarty: How is this better!
Nami: Don't be so rash! There are other ways of handling that!
William McCarty: Yes! There wasn't a need to bang elders against buildings you idiot! What if he had died against that building.
Monkey D. Luffy: He's still alive isn't he?
William McCarty: (*Sobbing* This guy!)
Soon Luffy walked towards Buggy showing no fear towards him as Buggy stood there on top of the building.
Monkey D. Luffy: Here I go. *Deeply inhaled* BIG NOSE!!
Soon all the Buggy Pirates started sobbing and Buggy himself shocked and angry at how Luffy called him a big nose.
Nami: That's something you can't say!
Buggy: You're pissing me off, asshole.
Soon Buggy had veins popping off his head and was angry at Luffy childish insult about his nose. Even it is kinda big and red.
Buggy: You dare call me that? Fire the Buggy Bomb now!
Soon they aimed the cannon at the group as Nami chastised Luffy on his insult.
Nami: Why'd you say that, you fool?!
Soon Nami runs away as Will noticed this and chased after her.
William McCarty: W-Wait for me!
Soon Arthur moved out of the way leaving Zoro with Luffy.
Roronoa Zoro: Hey Luffy, run!
Monkey D. Luffy: I can handle it.
Buggy: Disappear!
Monkey D. Luffy: That won't work on me!
Soon the Buggy cannon fired and Luffy still was standing there as he had a idea on how to handle the cannon.
Monkey D. Luffy: GOMU GOMU NO...
Soon he sucks in the air as his body starts to change and get big.
Monkey D. Luffy: ...Ballon!
Soon Luffy body turns into a big ballon that stopped the Buggy Bomb.
Soon Nami was shocked as well as Will at seeing Luffy body turning into a ballon and so was Buggy and his crew.
Buggy Pirate: What is he?
Buggy: Don't tell me the Buggy Bomb...
Soon we see Luffy Ballon body handles the cannon ball in his stomach and bounced it back towards the Buggy and his Pirate crew.
Buggy: He bounced it back!
Roronoa Zoro: Tell us before hand...
Arthur Winchester: Zoro, I feel like this is going to be a natural trend for us.
Soon the Buggy Bomb bounced back at Buggy and his Crew as they couldn't do anything except to try to escape.
BANG!*
Soon the Bomb destroyed the building where Buggy and his crew was as everyone covered their faces from the blast.
Monkey D. Luffy: Alright. It hit the enemy.
Nami: What the hell are you?!
William McCarty: You could have killed us!
Roronoa Zoro: Don't surprise people like that.
Arthur Winchester: It be nice if you told us your plan before executing it.
Soon we most of Buggy crew destroyed and beaten leaving only smoke and dust.
Nami: Ever since you fought that Lion, I knew there was something strange about you. That's not something humans can do! Please explain it to me. That ballon thing you just did. What was that?
William McCarty: Your right, but luffy here isn't human anymore he's a rubber man.
Nami: Huh? So what he's some sort of monster?!
Soon Will looks up in thought and thinks about Luffy actions and that summarizes part of his character.
William McCarty: Actually, that's not far off now that you say it.
Soon there was a rustling sound coming from the building as we now see Buggy is still alive and he used his 2 crew members as shields for the blast.
Buggy: How dare you do that to us.
Soon he dropped them revealed that his hands were holding them up with his Devil fruit powers.
Nami: He used his underlings as a shield, Eh?
Arthur Winchester: a cowards way.
Soon there was another member of the Buggy Pirates Mohji the beast tamer as he is laying down on the ground dreaming about eating meat.
Mohji: I can't eat anymore... Huh? Hmm?
Soon he pops up and see's the deviation that happened here.
Mohji: What happened here? Ah! It's you 2!
Soon he see's Luffy and Will and gets into a panic and remembering what happened to him.
Monkey D. Luffy: Yo.
Mohji: It's the guy with the straw hat! Ca-ca-ca-captain Buggy, be careful. He also has the power of the Devil's Fruit. He's a Rubber man!
Buggy: What?!
Nami: Rubber man?
William McCarty: Told you so.
Soon Luffy shows his powers to Nami to prove it.
Monkey D. Luffy: Yeah.
Nami: *Gasp*
Buggy: The Devil's Fruit... that's how he was able to bounce the buggy Bomb back.
Soon we see debris being moved behind Buggy and Mohji and we see Richie Burnt and smoke coming out of his mouth as the we see the person that is holding him is another of Buggy's crew.
?: This is our greatest humiliation ever, Captain.
As we see this pirate from this crew he is a tall slender man with a unique hairstyle that covers half of his face. His hair is light green where it is shaved and dark green. And is seen wearing a large blue and white checkered scarf that covers the lower portion of his face, a sleeveless brown coat reaching down to his knees, white pants larger near the end and held up by a white sash, and white shoes.
William McCarty: Who's this guy?
Buggy: Ohh, Cabaji. I can't surppress my anger anymore.
Mohji: Cabaji, you Bastard! What did you do to Ritchie!
Cabaji: This cat? I didn't want to get my clothes dirty, so I used it as a shield.
Soon Cabaji dropped Ritchie and Mohji check to see if he was ok.
Mohji: Ritchie!!!
Ritchie: *Heavy Panting*
Mohji: Hey... Ritchie, get a hold of yourself! Are you okay?
Soon as Ritchie see Cabaji he immediately gets scared and hides behinds a piece of wall that survived the blast.
Mohji: Richie. You dirty Bastard!
Soon Mohji was running at Cabaji to attack him but Cabaji dodged him and counter attack him and sent him flying towards Luffy.
Mohji: AAAAHHHH! Move out of the way!
Soon Will looks at the direction of where Luffy looks like he is about to kick as he then moves out of the way and so does Nami.
Monkey D. Luffy: You... move!
Mohji: Gyaah!
Soon Mohji hits the house leaving it cracked as Nami and Will look at Mohji on the ground defeated.
William McCarty: *Exclaims* That's gotta hurt.
Soon they look back at Buggy and Cabaji as they make the first move on them.
Cabaji: Captain Buggy.
Buggy: What is it, Cabaji?
Cabaji: Please let me handle this.
Buggy: Alright! Show them your Acrobatics.
Soon Cabaji smiles and jumps 20 feet in the air. Surprised everyone there as they look in Awe.
Cabaji has a unicycle underneath him and he is riding it very well as he charged towards them.
Cabaji: The chief of staff, Cabaji the acrobat! Captain Buggy's rage has been transferred to me!
Soon he aims his sword towards Luffy as he looks at Cabaji with a neutral look. But soon he is blocked by Zoro swords.
Roronoa Zoro: Since you're using a sword, I'll be your opponent.
Cabaji: That seems fair, Roronoa Zoro... to fight you as a swordsman.
Soon Cabaji noticed blood coming from Zoro stomach.
Monkey D. Luffy: Zoro, your bleeding!
William McCarty: How are you bleeding?
Arthur Winchester: That blast from the Buggy Bomb some of the debris must have stabbed you and you didn't even know.
William McCarty: Zoro, maybe you should rest and let Arthur or Luffy handle this.
Arthur Winchester: Let's let Zoro decide.
Soon there was a quiet as Zoro decided on what he wanted to do as he gave his answer.
Roronoa Zoro: Don't get in my way.
Soon Zoro gave his answer and was focused on Cabaji as he has his own thoughts on the matter of Zoro injury.
Cabaji: (You've been injured by the Captain Buggy Bomb, Eh? Moron.) Acrobatic special, Old Man's Flame!
Soon Cabaji used a dirty trick and set Zoro on fire and then kick him in the wounded area from the Buggy Bomb as some of the Straw hats see this and Nami Covering her eyes and ears not wanting to see this as Arthur face was mad and couldn't believe that Cabaji stooped to dirty tricks.
Roronoa Zoro: GYAAH!!!
Cabaji: What's wrong? I didn't kick you that hard.
Nami: That's dirty! He aimed for the wound!
Buggy: *Evil Chuckles*
Soon Cabaji got kicked in the ass Hard by a foot that belongs to Arthur as he has his guns pointed at him.
Cabaji: OW!!
Arthur Winchester: That's cheating.
Cabaji: You're gonna pay for that!
Soon he charges Arthur as he begins to point both his guns and shoot him but he misses as Cabaji begins to do his Acrobatic tricks like serpentine by using his Unicycle and then Running up the Wall while gunfire follows him and jumps in the air and leaving Arthur blinded by the sun as Arthur covers his face, as he is blinded as Arthur is standing there with the sun in his eyes Cabaji made his move on him as he throws a knife in his shoulder.
Arthur Winchester: *Groans* (Damn I can't get a shot at him.)
Cabaji: You may have gotten one lucky hit but your lucks run out. Acrobatic Special, Murder Under a Cloud of Smoke!
Soon Cabaji used his sword to make smoke making him impossible to find him as Arthur tries to find him but it's no use he needs one more miracle to save him from this.
Arthur Winchester: Acrobatic Special?
Soon Zoro got his second wind and see's Arthur fighting Cabaji.
Roronoa Zoro: It's my Duel! Stay out of it!
Soon Zoro see's the smoke clears for a sec and then sees a sword heading right at him as he blocks it with his two swords. But then Zoro sees Cabaji do the same kick into his wound making him fall back again and at the same time throws his dagger at Arthur hitting him in the chest as he drops his gun and falls backwards.
William McCarty: Arthur!!
Soon William are checking on Arthur to see if he was breathing as Zoro looks at Arthur body before looking at Cabaji with anger in his eyes.
Nami: That's a dirty Trick!
Cabaji: What's wrong? This is pathetic for a great man like yourself. So, have you realized? It's foolish to go against the Buggy crew. I even took out the infamous "Gunslinger."
Soon Nami was sweating at how this turns into a hopeless mess as Zoro is still fighting with that wound.
Nami: How can he fight someone with that wound? It's a wonder that he's still alive.
Luffy is still standing around as Will is looking at Arthur still to see if he was alive.
Nami: What are you doing?! He's going to be killed!
Zoro was breathing hard with his wound that Cabaji continues to kick and then looks at Arthur who is still on the ground with a knife in his chest still.
Cabaji: Roronoa Zoro. TIME TO DIE!
Roronoa Zoro: Annoying Bastard! Is hitting my wound... That much fun?!
Soon Cabaji stabs Zoro wound as everyone there gave a shocked look at Zoro getting stabbed. Soon Cabaji pulled his sword back and charged straight through him looking back at Zoro.
Arthur Winchester: *Groans*
William McCarty: Arthur!
Arthur then sits up and looks at the Knife in his chest as he takes it out to reveal his Journal that took a knife for him.
Arthur Winchester: Saved by book.
William McCarty: Your extremely lucky there.
Arthur Winchester: What's happening?
William McCarty: Zoro is still fighting Cabaji.
Soon they watch Cabaji and Zoro on different ends of the street as Zoro continues to stand up actually numbed the pain from his wound.
Nami: Why didn't he dodge it?
Roronoa Zoro: Are you satisfied now? I will show you the difference between you and me!
Soon Zoro is starting to get serious as he puts his third sword in his mouth as Arthur, Luffy, and Will start to cheer him on.
Monkey D. Luffy: Whaa, cool!
Arthur Winchester: That's right show the difference!
William McCarty: Finish it Zoro!
Soon Cabaji has a vein mark on his head to show his anger on Zoro.
Cabaji: This is Roronoa Zoro. I underestimated you.
Roronoa Zoro: My goal is to become the world's best Swordsman! I can't be defeated in a fight, not even once!
Cabaji: I see. You wanted to show me your strong Will. Don't worry though, you can't beat me with just that. It can be your excuse for losing.
Roronoa Zoro: Stop joking around. If I lose to someone like you just because of a wound like this... I can't imagine what future I would have!
Cabaji: You...
Arthur Winchester: Show this would be Acrobat what's what.
Monkey D. Luffy: Go, Zoro.
William McCarty: That's our Swordsman for ya!
Nami: Do what you guys want.
William McCarty: Huh?
Nami: You Pirates can just kill each other. Whether you guys win or lose, it has nothing to do with me.
William McCarty: Then why were you concerned for him earlier.
Nami: I don't care if you live or die by them. I just want to find the treasure myself, and then it'll be farewell.
Soon Luffy and Will look at her and thinks that this is the last they will see if her.
Nami: If fate has it. We'll work together again. See ya! Good luck fighting!
Monkey D Luffy: Yeah, thanks!
William McCarty: Hmm...
Cabaji: Now for my best acrobatic special.
Soon he has 3 spin tops in his hand as Zoro doesn't take any chances with Cabaji is preparing to attack him.
Cabaji: Acrobatic Special, Hundred Spin Tops Wind Attack!
William McCarty: Hey Arthur can you stand.
Arthur Winchester: Yes. Why?
William McCarty: I have a feeling that our navigator will get into trouble if we don't watch her.
Arthur Winchester: Ok. Besides Zoro got this handled.
Meanwhile
Back with Nami she is running towards Buggy's Treasury as she stops for a second and looks back at the group of people she was recently acquainted.
Nami: They aren't normal. Luffy, Zoro, and Arthur. The only that is normal is Will. I feel bad for him but it's his choice. Nothing good would come out of getting involved with them. As she looks around the corner and see Buggy is still enjoying the show that Cabaji is putting up with Zoro she makes her way to the cellar where drinks are stored.
Nami: Here it is. I'll take this opportunity to steal the map and treasure.
Soon she smashed the lock and entered the treasure room.
Meanwhile
Back with Zoro he is currently cutting up too spins left and right while he is distracted Cabaji is planning another attack.
Cabaji: Acrobatic Special, Climbing the Mountain!
Soon he uses his Unicycle to climb the building and jumps in the air.
Cabaji: Acrobatic special, Raising Fireworks!
Monkey D. Luffy: Dang, that's high!
Cabaji: Single Flower Vase!
Soon Buggy decided to cheat and use his Chop Chop Devil Fruit powers.
Buggy: Crawling Bara Bara Cannon!
Soon Buggy hand is flying at Zoro.
Buggy: Cabaji! I'll hold him! Finish Zoro!
Cabaji: As you wish!
Soon he begins to dive attack Zoro as he was in a predicament.
Roronoa Zoro: You bastards!
Soon There was a familiar sandle shoe and it was standing on top of Buggy hand as he felt it.
Buggy: That hurts!
Soon Zoro got out of Cabaji way as he sliced where Zoro stood.
Roronoa Zoro: Luffy!
Buggy: You!
Monkey D. Luffy: Zoro's fight... Don't interrupt it!
Meanwhile
As there was a match in the dark it is revealed to be Nami striking a match as she found a lamp and used it to see where she is.
Nami: *Exclaims* Amazing, this much!
Soon she starts to pick up the treasure and can't believe it's that much.
Nami: All this is mine!
As she puts a crown on top of her head there is a sword pointed at her.
Buggy Pirate: What are you doing in our treasury?
Nami: (Oh crap, he woke up!)
Buggy Pirate: Captain Buggy ordered whoever comes near here... *Thump*
Soon as the Pirate steps into the light it is clear he is drunk but he fails to notice two shadows behind him as one has gun and used it as a club and he fell down again.
Nami: Huh?
Soon the shadows entered the light and it was Arthur and William as they are standing in front of her.
Nami: Will? Arthur? What are you doing here?
William McCarty : Just making sure that your ok before we leave.
Nami: Why, are you after my treasure?
William McCarty: We came to see if you needed our help and it turns out you did.
Nami: I can handle myself.
William McCarty: Oh, I know you can.
Soon Will turns over the Pirate and sees a key on his person and hands it to Nami who then makes her way towards a locked chest and opens it.
Nami: There it is!
Soon she takes out the Map of the Grand line and Arthur and Will look over her shoulder and see the map.
Nami: The map of the Grand Line!
Arthur Winchester: Good now let's go back to Luffy and see what happening now.
Meanwhile
Back up top Buggy is getting angry with Luffy stopping him and Zoro dodged the blade and made a close call.
Cabaji: Ha. Ha. I don't need the Captain's help to defeat someone like you.
Roronoa Zoro: That's enough. I'm tired.
Cabaji: You've finally given up on this fight. I'm amazed that you've fought with that wound until now.
Roronoa Zoro: I'm saying that I'm tired of your useless Acrobatic Specials!
Cabaji: Then I will finish you with one last strike! With my... True Sword Technique! DIE!
Soon Zoro got into his Three sword style pose.
Roronoa Zoro: Devil Slice!
Soon he swings his swords across from Cabaji and they both pass each other and Cabaji been sliced through.
Buggy: Caba-chan!
Cabaji: The Buggy Crew. Was defeated by a group of thieves.
Roronoa Zoro: Not thieves...
Soon Zoro fell down from his terrible wounds that he received from Cabaji and laying down on the ground.
Roronoa Zoro: Pirates! Luffy, I'm going to sleep.
Monkey D. Luffy: Ok. I'll take care of the rest.
Soon Buggy was angry at how his crew was defeated by a couple of no named thieves.
Outside of the bar
Soon we see Nami only as she is now carrying the treasure by herself now as Arthur and Will help their captain.
Nami: [Panting] You know I expected them to help me carry this all the way to the boat, this is the treasure I expected from a devil like Buggy. But with this much...
Soon she stops herself as she then thinks about what Will said earlier before they left to save their Captain.
Few Minutes Earlier
Nami: Huh?! You want to go back there?!
Will McCarty: Well... yes.
Nami: Your insane! No one can defeat Buggy!
Arthur Winchester: There's a first for everything besides you seen what he's done to this town and what you have heard from the Mayor they poured sweat, blood, and put their soul into this town and I'll be dammed if I let someone like Buggy destroy it.
Nami: Well I ain't going back.
Will McCarty: I didn't say you had to go back we're just telling you. And if we see each other again on the sea's expect Luffy asking you to be his Navigator because he won't take no for an answer. C'mon Arthur.
Arthur Winchester: Right!
Soon they both leave the dumbfounded thief by herself as she has never seen such loyal pirates in her life or the most bravest or the caring Pirates that look out for others then their own well being.
Present, Nami P.O.V
Soon she thinks about them until she then stands up and leaves again.
Nami: Anyways, I have to get off this island as soon as possible.
And then she stops again as she looks to where the battle is happening as we look at what is happening over there.
Luffy P.O.V
Soon we see some of everyone from the Mayor to Mohji and Cabaji are knocked out alive but dealt with as then we see Zoro as he is sleeping.
Roronoa Zoro: [Snoring]
Soon Buggy spoke as he never thought about it before now as Zoro told them who they are.
Captain Buggy: You guys are Pirates?
Monkey D Luffy: Yeah, we're going to the Grand Line.
Captain Buggy: Tch! That's not a place you can just casually go, fool. Even if you enter the Grand Line, what are you going to do? Go site seeing? [Laughs]
Soon Luffy looks at him all quiet like as he told him his answer.
Monkey D Luffy: Become the Pirate King.
...
Captain Buggy: Gyaah... STOP FOOLING AROUND, YOU IDIOT! You're going to be the Pirate King?! Then I'm God!
???: I don't think God has a stupid outfit like that though.
Soon Buggy turns around and we see it's Will and Arthur as they both came back and was behind Buggy.
Captain Buggy: Tch! So you two are still around? Good... [Snap!]
As soon he snaps his fingers there is at least two more Buggy Pirates that look strong enough to handle them.
One had a archer outfit on as he had a Brown feather cap on and brown outfit the kind medieval outfit with bows and everything on and the other was a bulky strong man as he could only see muscles on him as he roared at them.
Arthur Winchester: Aw... great more clowns to fight.
Captain Buggy: HeHeHeHeHe. These are my bodyguards they are tough like me now let's see if you can survive. Kill Them! Archie! Arnold!
Will McCarty: Archie? Arnold?
Soon we see Archie as he pulled on his bow as he aims at Arthur.
Archie: HA! Take this you cheep knock-off gunslinger!
Arthur Winchester: Who you calling cheep knock-off!
Soon Archie and Arthur then fight each other as Archie was skillfully dodged all the bullets as then Archie then released his arrow as his aim was off but then when it hit the ground it exploded.
[BOOM]
Arthur Winchester: Gyah!
Will McCarty: Arthur!
Soon he hit the ground hard but was fine either way.
Arthur Winchester: What the?
Archie: You like it? These are my favorites. Trick Arrows. All my Arrows are regular or just full of tricks you never know which one I'm going to pull.
Will McCarty: That's not fair!
[Thud!]
Soon Will looks up and we see the towering giant that was about as big as Richie and he wasn't the conversation type.
Arnold: [Grunting]
Soon Will was ducking under Arnold as he was strong but he wasn't agile enough to grab him.
Will McCarty: You don't talk much do you?
Arnold: [Roars]
Soon Arthur and Will go two separate ways as to drag away Buggy bodyguards as Buggy got back to their conversation before they were interrupted.
Buggy: As I was saying... You're going to be the Pirate King?! Then I'm God! The one who will become Pirate King and own all the treasure in the world is me! Stop Dreaming!
Monkey D Luffy: You talk to much.
Captain Buggy: Huh?!
Soon Luffy is in his fighting stance as he says this to buggy.
Monkey D Luffy: Just bring it on.
Soon Buggy has in his hands four daggers in each finger as he remembers something about that hat Luffy wears.
Captain Buggy: When I look at your Straw Hat, it reminds me of that man and it pisses me off! That despicable redhead Bastard!
Soon it was enough for Luffy to stop as he wonders if it is the same guy he is thinking about.
Monkey D Luffy: Redhead? Did you say Redhead? Do you know Shanks?
Captain Buggy: What? So what if I know him?
Monkey D Luffy: Where is he now?
Captain Buggy: Well... To say I know him, I do know him... To say I don't know him, I don't know him.
This confused Luffy as he has no idea what he is talking about.
Monkey D Luffy: What are you talking about? Are you an idiot?
Soon Buggy eyes went white as his teeth went jagged as he was angry at Luffy.
Captain Buggy: You're the idiot!
Soon he brandished his weapons as he tells him he's not going to talk.
Captain Buggy: Like I would tell you something that you want to know. I'm not that nice of a guy.
Soon Luffy gets back into his fighting stance then.
Monkey D Luffy: Well then, I'll beat it out of you!
Captain Buggy: [Laughs] You'll be dead before you get a chance. Soon Buggy then taps his foot and we see a hidden blade in his shoe as he tells him that Rubber doesn't work so well with Sharp objects.
Captain Buggy: Rubber can't bounce knives back.
Luffy didn't seemed worried at all.
Monkey D Luffy: Yep, not possible.
Meanwhile with Arthur Winchester
Soon Arthur Winchester was using two of his guns as he pointed them at the roof as Archie fired his Bow and Arrow calmly as possible and then it fly's right through the barrel as it was a armor piercing Arrow and hit right through Arther as his shoulder was pierced.
Arthur Winchester: [Pained Yell] Damn!
Soon he fired a few more shots at it seemed to be panicking shots.
Archie: Oh? Panicking are we? That isn't very becoming of a marksman like yourself?
Soon he fired another Arrow as then it travels to the barrel and exploded as it sent Arthur away and fell on his back and then time slowed down as his eyes were dilated as he could see right through the smoke and find him.
Arthur Winchester: [Whispers] Gotcha...
[Bang,Bang]
Soon the bullet Travels through the air and hits the bow and destroying it as then another Bullet then hits trick arrow bag as then it exploded leaving only a charred person as he has blank eyes now and lets out a whimper as he is in enormous pain.
Archie: [Whimpers] I lost... to a Guns men?
Soon he falls backwards as he is alive but totally defeated as Arthur stands back up and takes out the Arrow and bandages his shoulder as good as he can get.
Arthur Winchester: That's will hold until I get medical help. Now to get back to Luffy.
Meanwhile with William McCarty
Soon we see the strong man Arnold fighting hard as he punches through a house as he brought it down with his fist.
Will McCarty: Woah! You're a strong guy.
Arnold: [Growls]
Will McCarty: Fine. Let's go!
Soon they both now start to fight as then Will started to punch him in the stomach multiple times as it seemed to have no effect on him.
Arnold: [Chuckles]
Will McCarty: This is not going as well as I had hoped.
Arnold: AAAAAHHHH!
Soon Arnold then hits Will in the face as he tries to block but his arms then cracked as the force was enough to crack his arms as he takes a dirt nap and then sees Nami right in front of him.
Will McCarty: Nami?
Nami: Will?! Are you ok?!
Will McCarty: You Gotta go now! Leave!
Arnold: [Roars]
Soon Arnold sees Nami and the treasure as he then makes his way over to the treasure as she then protect it with her life.
Nami: NO! Keep away! I'm not letting you have my treasure!!
Soon Arnold was about to hit her hard as Nami expected for it to hurt she then opened her eyes to see Will in front of her as then his body glows Red as she can tell he was angry as the giant was surprised by his strength.
Will McCarty: [Stern] What are you doing?
Soon we see Wills eyes looked like demons as they looked at Arnold as he was visibly scared as he backs away as Will then used his one fist as it then turned into Metal as he then punches Arnold with one hit that seemed to be enough for him to slide back far away into a house as debris then fell on top of him and knocked him out.
Arnold: Guhh...
Soon Arnold eyes were white and there was a fist mark that was seen on his chest as Will defeated Arnold because he was mad that a man would strike a girl even if it was a thief like Nami.
Nami: What are you?
Soon Will looks at his arm as then his bones have been mended as he looks at her with confused look as well.
Will McCarty: I don't know.
Nami: Well since your fine why don't you help me carry this then since I saved you.
Will McCarty: What?! How?!
Nami: I nearly got killed think of this as emotional repercussions.
Will McCarty: You really are a witch!
Nami: [Chuckles] Thank you for saving me though.
Soon Nami touched his cheek as Will fell for her beautiful smile and charming features.
Will McCarty: [Blushed] Well, Uh, I, Uh, Of course I'll carry this for you.
Soon Will carry the bag of treasure as she actually cares for Will.
Nami: (He might be useful to me as maybe a bodyguard to bad he's a pirate I might have enjoyed his company some more.)
Near the Pub
As they make their way to where Luffy and Buggy were fighting.
Will McCarty: This thing is heavy.
Nami: Look!
Soon Buggy was about to attack Luffy.
Captain Buggy: Bara Bara Japanese Cracker!
Soon Buggy lower body then starts to spin as it was after Luffy as he then jumps up and Buggy has a plan for that.
Captain Buggy: If you go up, I can predict your movement!
Soon Buggy throws his knives at Luffy.
Will McCarty: Luffy!!
Monkey D Luffy: Who said?
Soon he moves out of the way as his went past Luffy and Buggy legs went back to him.
Captain Buggy: Oh, I see. Interesting.
Monkey D Luffy: You too. Gumu Gumu no Pistol!
Soon Luffy stretched his arm out as Buggy dodge it.
Captain Buggy: Thats an interesting skill. But it left you wide open.
Soon he plans onto cutting Luffy arm off as Luffy then grabs a tree.
Captain Buggy: I'll chop it off!
Soon Luffy flying right at Buggy as there was another attack right after the first one.
Monkey D Luffy: Gomu Gomu no...
Soon Buggy plans a escape immediately after Luffy is coming right at him.
Captain Buggy: Bara Bara EMERGENCY ESCAPE!
Monkey D Luffy: Sickle!
Soon as Luffy was about to clothesline him Buggy head just popped off as it was a close call and Luffy was right behind Buggy now and lands in the dirt.
Will McCarty: Ouch...
Captain Buggy: [Mocking Laughing] Too naive, rubber man.
Soon Luffy pops back up as he was ok.
Monkey D Luffy: Damn, he split into pieces.
Captain Buggy: [Laughs]
Soon Nami and Will is watching this as they have no idea what to call this fight.
Nami: What kind of fight is this? It's like watching a dream.
Will McCarty: (No... it's like watching monster fight monster.)
Soon some of the Buggy Pirates were still alive as they watched this fight.
Buggy Pirate: Hey, did you just see that?
Buggy Pirate: You moron, act like you're unconscious. If we get involved in this it won't matter how money lives we have.
Captain Buggy: Bara Bara Cannon!
Soon Buggy aimed his hand at Luffy as it had knives in it as Luffy tries to hold it back but was to weak to stop it.
Captain Buggy: Release.
Soon Buggy hit Luffy as it scratched his head and Luffy fell backwards in the debris.
Captain Buggy: [Laughs] How did you like that, kid? Hmm?
Soon Luffy picks up his hat as everyone wonder what he is doing as his face turns to anger as he looks at his hat.
Monkey D Luffy: You bastard!
Captain Buggy: What's wrong? Was it wrong of me to cut your face?
Soon Will sees Luffy hat as it had a cut in it.
Will McCarty: Uh-oh...
Monkey D Luffy: You dare... you dare damage this hat?!
Captain Buggy: Eh?
Monkey D Luffy: This is my treasure! I won't forgive anyone who damages my hat!
Soon Will and Nami remembers what Luffy said as he made a promise to the one who gave him that hat.
Nami: I thought he was someone who wouldn't take anything seriously.
Will McCarty: Yeah, he may have his childish behavior but he will seriously protect his treasure and his friends. You can't help but want to help right?
Nami: Yeah... he's that passionate about it.
Monkey D Luffy: [Growls]
Captain Buggy: It seems like the hat has some history.
Monkey D Luffy: Thats right!
Captain Buggy: Is the hat that important?
Soon Will sees Buggy is missing a hand and looks behind Luffy and see Buggy hand as he still has some knifves.
Will McCarty: Luffy get out of there Buggy is going to attack you from behind!
Soon Luffy turns around as Buggy throws his knife and Luffy blocked it just in time. But it wasn't Buggy target at all.
Captain Buggy: Protect it properly!
Soon Buggy cuts Luffy hat as he is shocked as he has some flashback when he met shanks or how he saved him or how he sacrificed his arm for him or how that hat was his promise to him to get stronger and they would meet again.
Captain Buggy: How is this Worn-out hat a treasure? [Laughs] Treasures are gold silver objects that shine, showing the owners class. This crappy straw hat is a treasure?! Don't make me laugh!
Soon Luffy is mad at Buggy that his eyes are covered in shadow.
Monkey D Luffy: That's Shank's hat!
Soon Will wonder who is shanks as Buggy was that of shock as he looks at the hat more carefully.
Captain Buggy: What?! This hat belongs to Shanks?
Soon he throws it down to the ground as it made him mad looking at it.
Captain Buggy: No wonder why it looks familiar. He always wore this next to me!
Monkey D Luffy: You we're on the same ship as Shanks?!
Captain Buggy: Yeah, back when I was a pirate apprentice. We were comrades. That damn annoying redhead Bastard!
Soon he steps on Shanks hat as Luffy then charges after Buggy and defends Shanks.
Monkey D Luffy: Shanks is a great man! You guys were comrades? Don't compare yourself with him!
Captain Buggy: Bara Bara EMERGENCY ESCAPE!
Soon as his head was popped off but Luffy was aiming for his body as Will noticed that he felt that as Buggy can split into pieces but when someone hits him he can feel pain.
Captain Buggy: [Whimpers] This is Buggy.
Monkey D Luffy: Don't ever say you and shanks are comrades!
Captain Buggy: [Groaning, Coughing] It's my right to say what I want about Shanks.
Soon Luffy pulls on Buggy cheeks as he wants to know what had happened between him and Shanks.
Monkey D Luffy: Spit it out! What happened between you and Shanks! Damn! How dare you do that to my treasure...
Captain Buggy: Do you really want to know? He is the only man I can never forgive! I will curse him for the rest of my life! I will never forgive that guy!
