Last Laugh
“Go Apoo!” Queen cheered.
“Come the fuck on,” Crocodile complained. He guarded all the crewmen who were cheering in great fever.
Apoo pounced on the fearful Buggy. He gave a nasty combo to the clown across the rocky terrain. Buggy then blasted a pie at his face while complaining, “I must really be running out of inventory.” Apoo smashed the pan back on Buggy’s face.
“At least Luffy had guts, Teach has his cheap tactics, and Shanks his influence but you have nothing to win the contest. You will lose here!”
“Nyah nyah nyah, I can’t hear you, I lost my ears somewhere,” he got punched away. Buggy dug into his pockets while on the ground. “Come on man, I’ve got jokes. Do you like to get silly?,” he threw a bunch of animal balloons at Apoo. “You don’t like balloons? Well good, CAESAR MAKE THE HELIUM EXPLODE!”
Caesar was floating just above. “huh, oh sure.”
Even at that explosion Apoo stood there with a bloodthirsty glare. “You don’t even like balloons,” Buggy commented.
“You’re not funny,” Apoo said.
Buggy begged on all fours, “make me your nakama!”
“See, he quit, so get ready, Fraudhawk,” Queen said.
“Relax, fatty.”
Apoo leapt into the air, right arm held back. Buggy screamed in great fear.
\\Flashback//
Rayleigh told him, “we probably won’t meet any more Longarm people together so if you ever end up in a boxing match against them, remember they only punch long. Their hooks are basically useless. Stay close and they’ll never do much damage to you.”
\\Flashback over//
“Thank you obligatory Rayleigh flashback.” Buggy leapt into the air in earnest, knives in hand. They flew at each other. Why am I trying? With my feet on the ground, I can just reposition myself freely? Oh well, for the drama of it.
“Roaring Wukong!”
“Assault Rifle!”
Apoo wiffed. Buggy stabbed into Apoo’s head with his punch. Then the punch echoed sound blasting the two of them deep into a crater in the earth. Queen looked on shocked. Caesar was about to go in but Heyritten fell past him. He jumped out a moment later just holding the head of Buggy and he announced, “OPA! This is the man who will be Pirate King!”
“What of Apoo? Is he okay?” Queen asked. Then suddenly he was chopped to pieces by Mihawk. “Obviously no,” Mihawk said. Queen’s body pieces fell into the ocean. They all cheered and Buggy laughed, “gyahahahaha, I need a hospital”.
So on this day, the Leftovers of the Beast Pirates were ruthlessly obliterated…
…back to Empty Bluffs, a few days later
The palace had been rebuilt completely. “Clown Emperor” Buggy [Captain of the Circus Pirates] with a bounty of $4,048,800,000 sat on the throne over looking the sea while petting Richie.
“We have gotten so much money now,” announced Galdino “the Sandrone” [Officer of Sculptor] with a $240,000,000 bounty.
“We were able to pay off everyone and then some. We can party for years,” said Alvida “the Colombina” [Officer of Beauty] with a $50,000,000 bounty.
“To think that drunkard oni wanted all this gold to fund a world war,” said Cabaji “the Acrobat” [Officer of Olympics] with a $498,000,000 bounty.
“My cut will fund so much research, I’ll surpass Vegapunk sooner than Strawhat kills him” said Caesar “the Dottore” [Officer of Natural Philosophy] with a $900,000,000 bounty.
“Maybe we can even just buy Moriah from Blackbeard,” said Perona “the Harlequinn” [Officer of Tragedy] with a $67,000,000. “He’s not worth that much.”
They all danced and sung around a small pile of gold on the indoor balcony. Below there was a big party with all the crew. “Hawkeye” Mihawk (aka the Scaramouche) [Officer of Night] with a $3,590,000,000 bounty overlooked the party. He recounted, we were also able to get two Lode Poneglyphs. Kaido’s buried among the treasure and then a gift from Heyritten as he wants to ally Buggy now. He thinks of the clown as apart of the Last Laugh, a great war by the end of this year. According to him, he accurately predicted the current Yonko. Urouge is sticking with him. Crocodile was also able to broker vassalship from Katakuri’s leftovers as they just want to see the One Piece. A big week for us. Then Mihawk turned around.
The officers sat back down at their circle table before Buggy’s room. Daz “the Brighella” [Officer of Blades] with $750,000,000 was already here. Mihawk sat wine in hand. Buggy joined in riding Richie. They chatted and joked with each other. Then Crocodile barged in spreading the doors open shouting, “GUYS GUYS GUYS! I’VE GOT NEWS! SOME TEEEEERRRIBLE NEWS! WE GOT A HUGE PROBLEM!” Sir Crocodile “the Pantalone” is the [Officer of Banking] with a $2,890,000,000 bounty.
He threw a newspaper at Daz, “aye Captain, we’re fucked.” Daz passed the paper to Buggy.
“Bad news? You barge in with bad news? Does anything nice come from you?” Caesar asked.
“STRAWHAT DID WHAT??”
“I know,” Crocodile said, “this is an unprecedented incident but we move. There is good news I came with. We can perform Operation Barbarossa, Heyritten’s dumb plan to start the final war.”
“Really? Don’t bother us with that” Alvida said while Buggy was foaming at the mouth.
Crocodile explained, “listen, the first part is to recruit certain allies. Yes Perona, Mihawk will lead a team to rescue Moriah since Teach was last seen fighting Law on another island. By the time you get there, Garp and Kuzan should be done fighting. The paper also mentions that Kidd was obliterated by Shanks. For the second plan, since the government is preoccupied with Mugiwara, I will lead a team into Impel Down to rescue Doflamingo. We’ll use his government secrets in the war. It also seems like the Revolutionaries are responding to the Government’s attack on Lulusia. The conflict is as soon as Heyritten says.”
“The conflict that will make you king, captain,” Cabaji said to the crying and sweating Buggy.
Vivi came in scantily dressed carrying a tray of more food. She was also wearing shackles on her wrist. “When are you guys taking me back to Alabasta?”
“Aw, she’s so annoyed of my horos,” Perona admitted.
“Don’t be rash,” Croco smiled, “you returning means your nation will fly Mugiwara’s flag. Heyritten says the need for that alliance will come soon but not now.”
“Anyways,” Mihawk started, “you’re a pirate now so act like it.” The gang broke in a united laughter. A united laughter sitting at $13,033,800,000.
Vivi watched as they started to sing “yo ho yo ho, a pirate’s life for me. We kindle and char and enflame and ignite. Drink up me hearties, yo ho. We burn up the city, we’re really a fright. Drink up me hearties, yo ho. We’re rascals and scoundrels, we’re villains and knaves. Drink up me hearties, yo ho.”
Mohji accidently knocked Buggy’s head off. Buggy’s head rolled out of the room with no one wise of it. He reattached himself at the window over looking to sea. “Yeah, Shanks, we’ll set sail for the One Piece. This time I won’t die if I go on the island so you better not have any more excuses to not see it.” He fell back into his chair. “we’re devils and black sheep, gyahahaha, we’re really bad eggs.”
