"Speaking"
'thinking'
-Chapter 4-
"I'm here to kick your ass just like I promised I would Buggy." Buggy grabbe his handless arm and cleanched his teeth. Trying to get back his hand that Luffy had a hold of. Luffy let go with a small laugh and Buggy's hand floated back up to him.
"Damn you Straw-Hat." As Buggy said that the rest of us walked over to the caughing major. "How dare you. You can't just waltz up and treat me like this. I'M CAPTAIN BUGGY AND I WONT STAND FOR IT."
'Does he have to act like a baby about it?' Shizu thought to herself.
"Listen to me, all I want is the chart and the treasure than i'm outta here, you got it?" Nami said to Zoro and Shizu.
"Yeah, I got it." Zoro said never taking his eyes off of the scene before him.
Shizu said nothing not really caring what the orange haired girl was going to do. All she really wanted to do was to get away from Buggy. Far away from him, but from the look of things it was going to be a while. Zoro and Luffy looked like they were itching to fight. She couldn't blame them really, she just didn't want to be near someone who wasn't worth the fight. Especially someone like Buggy who whined a lot and had an annoying voice. Her attention was turned back to the mayor.
"Get outta here, why'd you follow me? Your outsiders. Leave this is my fight, I need to be the one to protect my town." He picked up his fallen weapon, "Buggy is my fight!"
Just then Luffy hit the mayor on the head making him hit the side of the house next to them. Zoro and Shizu stood there not caring while Nami was gaping like a fish.
"What the hell do you think you doing, Why did you knock out the mayor?" Nami yelled at Luffy.
"Because."
"It's no a bad idea. If the old man continued to fight he would have died." Zoro backed Luffy up on his decision.
"It's for the best." Shizu shrugged.
"You didn't have to hit him. I'm sure you could have done a more humain thing to deal with the situation." Nami continued to yell at Luffy, who ignores her heading over to the building Buggy was on.
Luffy takes a big gulp of air and yelled "BIG NOSE!" Jaws drop to the floor.
'Well that wasn't much of a surprise coming from Luffy.' Shizu thought.
"That's the worst thing you could have said to him." Nami hides her face.
"Oh you damn flashy idiot, I wont stand for this, TAKE AIM AND FIRE THE BUGGY BALL!" Buggy ordered his crew.
Nami runs for cover and Zoro was just about to do the same till he noticed Luffy and Shizu not moving. "Come on Luffy, Shizu we gotta go."
"I'm perfectly fine where i'm standing."
"You go on ahead." Shizu and Luffy replied.
"TIME TO DIE." Buggy yelled
The cannon from on top of the bar fired straight at Luffy. He stood confidently and got ready for the attack.
"Gum-Gum BALLOON!" Luffy's stomach expands catching the Buggy ball and fires it back.
Gasp were heard from the Buggy crew and Buggy himself as they witnessed him turn into a balloon.
"What is he?" A random crew member shouted.
"Did He catch the Buggy Ball?" Buggy asked. Just then the Buggy ball comes flying back towards them, and they all scream. The bomb crashes into them and creates an explosion.
"Could have warned me." Zoro said with his face in his hand.
"Alright I got 'em." Luffy said holding his hat.
"Good job Luffy." Shizu raises her hand to him and they high five.
"What kind of monster are you?" Nami asked.
"I think you freaked her out." Zoro walked over to Luffy and Shizu.
They all look over at the debris that used to be the bar. Members of the Buggy crew were everywhere.
"I knew something was weird after after you survived that fight with that lion, no human being can do what you did, now explain yourself. What the hell was that balloon thing you did just now?" Nami questioned wanting answers.
"That was the Gum-Gum Balloon." Luffy answered.
"I don't care what you call it, tell me how you did it. What are you some kind of freak?" Nami continued but was ignored.
"How dare you flashily do me in." Buggy stood from the debris holding two of his crew members, who he obviously used as sheilds and drops them to the ground.
"Unreal using his men as a shield." Nami siad in disbeleif.
"Scumbag." Shizu muttered.
"What in the world just happened here." The lion tamer gets up from the debris and looks around and spots Luffy. "No! It's you."
"Hi." Luffy greets him.
"It's that damn Straw-Hat, Captain Buggy we have to be careful, he has devilfruit powers to. He's a rubber person, I saw it myself." The lion tamer explains to Buggy.
"What!" Buggy says.
"Rubber person?" Nami looks at Luffy.
"Yeah See." Pulls his cheeks which streach.
Nami covers her mouth in shock.
"Luffy, stop freaking out our navigator." Shizu says to Luffy who lets go of his cheeks, and return to his face.
"A devil fruit. That explains how he bounced the Buggy ball back at us." Buggy mused.
The lion rises from the ruble clearly being held. "How do you plan to respond to this insult. Captain?"
"Oh, Cabaji, I don't know im to angry to think-"
"Put him down Cabaji, What the hell did you do to my Richie?" The lion tamer exclaims seeing the lion.
"This cat, I used it as a shield to keep my clothes from getting dirty. " Cabaji drops the lion to the ground.
"Richie!" The lion tamer runs over to the injured lion. "No, Richie! Say something, please Richie."
Richie opens his eyes and sees Cabaji straing back at him. He gets scared and hids behind a left over piece of wall still standing.
"Richie. Damn you you bastard." The lion tamer runs over to Cabaji ready to punch him but gets kicked in Luffys Direction.
Luffy kicks him sending him into a building.
"Captain Buggy."
"Yes Cabaji." Buggy said.
"Allow me to pay there disrespect."
"Fine, but make it a good show for everyone." Buggy replys.
