Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 182: New Weapon



Chapter 182: New Weapon

Sakazuki's unit is right on their tail and the Clowns are ready to fight. They've prepared a secret weapon that will be used to attack Sakazuki's unit. Most of the crew and even some executives don't know what this weapon is, so they are waiting for it.

*CREAK BAM*

Suddenly, the backside of Black Pearl opens and something comes out. It is the secret weapon that Ruff has made with Palu's help. The weapon has 2 long metal arms with a 50 cm gap between them.

There are 2 chairs behind the weapon that have some handles and buttons near them. One chair is placed right behind the weapon and Enel sits on it. Ruff sits on the chair that is placed a little on the left and the scope is placed in front of him.

"Hmm? What kind of weapon is this?" asks Mantis.

"Well, just wait and see. Enel, Ruff, do it," says Buggy.

"Aye!" replies Ruff.

"Let's destroy them," says Enel.

Enel and Ruff get ready to activate the weapon. Enel grabs 2 metal handles in front of him and flows his lightning onto the handle. The 2 metal arms glow bright and a bright ball appears in the gap. Ruff controls the weapon and aims it toward Sakazuki's ship.

"Vice Admiral Sakazuki, something glows behind the Black Pearl," says a Marine soldier.

"Do you know what that is?" asks Sakazuki.

"We aren't sure, but it might be something to help them escape," says the soldier.

"I won't be so sure with that. The Black Pearl can outrun this normal battleship with their usual method. So it is very unlikely that they want to escape," says Yamakaji.

"Then what is it?" asks the soldier.

"Who knows? Might be a weapon or something," says Yamakaji.

"Surely you jest. The distance between our ships is still too far. Even Marine's best cannon can't reach half of this distance," says the Marine.

"Well, that's just a possibility," says Yamakaji.

"Doesn't matter. We will crush whatever it is that those pirates will use. They won't have the same luck as before. Get ready for battle," says Sakazuki.

The Marine soldiers nod and prepare themselves. They don't know what the Clowns will do but their objective won't change. With Sakazuki and Yamakaji here, they all know that they don't need to worry about losing. But they still don't know the Clowns' power yet.

"How long again, Ruff, Enel?" asks Buggy.

"We're ready, Captain," says Ruff.

Buggy grins hearing that and immediately gives his order, "Shoot!"

*ZZT ZZT SWISH*

The bright lightning ball gets shot by the weapon. It flies right above the sea and splits the waves. It moves at a very high speed toward Sakazuki's ship. The lightning bullet will reach the Marine ship in a matter of seconds.

The Marines see it coming and get surprises at its speed. Sakazuki even widens his eyes seeing the lightning bullet's speed. Without any hesitation, he jumps to the front railing while activating his devil fruit power. His right hand turns into magma and he sends a punch forward.

Sakazuki then shouts, "GREAT ERUPTION (Dai Funka)!"

A big amount of magma is shot from Sakazuki's hand. His technique is executed just right on time to block the incoming lightning bullet. Both lightning and magma clash and create a big impact.

The clash creates a rather big explosion that even pushes the Marine ship back. Sakazuki's magma splattered everywhere and he also gets pushed back. He isn't that prepared to block such an attack, after all.

But he just gets pushed without getting any injury. His destroyed right hand also regenerates again because it's just his magma. It really shows his monstrous strength and his strong logia devil fruit.

Still, even if Sakazuki is fine, the ship doesn't seem to be fine like him. The front side is destroyed badly so now it has a big hole in the front. It can still be used to sail, but that will be very risky because water can enter the ship easily now.

"What was that? It was very fast and can cover such a long distance," says Yamakaji.

"Devil fruit, it must be a devil fruit power," says Sakazuki.

"Hmm, lightning power, it must be that Enel. Vice Admiral, what should we do? It doesn't seem possible to chase them with our ship's current state," says Yamakaji.

Sakazuki wants to answer, but then they see the same light from Black Pearl. The Marine soldiers widen their eyes while Sakazuki clicks his tongue. He moves to the front and prepares his power. He won't get pushed again now when he is ready.

*ZZT SWISH*

The Clowns shoot the weapon again, but now it's different. They shoot the newest Buggy Ball instead of a lightning bullet again. The Buggy Ball has a diameter of 40 cm and is red in color. Also, it has higher explosive power now.

The Buggy Ball flies at a high speed too, but it's not as fast as the lightning bullet. It is far heavier so of course, it's not as fast as an energy bullet. However, it's still a lot faster than a normal cannon ball's speed.

The Marines see the Buggy Ball comes to them and get ready for it. It has a lower speed than the lightning bullet, so they have time to prepare themselves. Yamakaji now gets in the front instead of Sakazuki.

"If it's this fast, then I can cut it," says Yamakaji as he swings his sword down.

A slashing arc appears from Yamakaji's sword and it moves toward the Buggy Ball. It hits the ball and cuts it easily like butter. The ball gets split into 2 and the 2 parts fly to each side of the battleship.

Buggy sees it and grins, "Kaboom!"

*BOOM BOOM*

The 2 halves of Buggy Ball explode right beside the Marine battleship. If it's just a normal cannonball, then it won't be a problem. But the Buggy Ball has far bigger explosive power than a normal cannonball. As a result, the explosion of each half is enough to break the ship's hull.

"Vice Admiral, Rear Admiral, the hull on each side is broken. We can't continue to sail with this ship," reports a Marine soldier.

"Tch, they've aimed it," says Sakazuki angrily.

"It seems we've fell into their trap," says Yamakaji.

The Clowns grin seeing Sakazuki's unit stop chasing them. But Buggy isn't satisfied yet because there is one more test for the weapon. He orders Enel & Ruff to activate the weapon again and also tells Palu to help them.

"Do it," says Buggy.

They use the weapon again but now they use normal-sized bullets. Palu throws a normal-sized bullet one by one into the weapon. Then it starts to shoot the bullets rapidly toward the Marine battleship.

The Marine is confused because the Clowns still want to attack them even though they don't chase the crew again. So they get ready for another attack. But they can't see it because the normal bullets are too small to be seen from this distance.

They just realized it when it gets very close so they can't defend it. The bullets hit the ship and some Marine soldiers. High-ranked officers like Sakazuki & Yamakaji can defend themselves obviously. But even they can't defend their comrades from the rapid-fire.

When the Clowns finally stops shooting, many holes appear on the ship's body & sail. Many Marine soldiers also get injured or killed by the bullets. Now the Marine unit really can't chase the Clown. They clearly get defeated by the Clown in this naval battle.

Buggy grins seeing it and says, "Railgun first test complete. Let's leave this place now."
