"My dream, Vice Chief Buggy?"
The Desert Emissary disappeared, and Crocodile stood in the center of the tent, looking at Red Nose Buggy.
To be honest,
Even though Buggy possessed greater power than he did, he didn't really take him seriously.
Perhaps it was because he was once a small-time pirate in the East Blue; if the Reincarnation Game hadn't appeared, he wouldn't even have been qualified to eat at the same table as him, which led to such thoughts.
This was also why he chose him as an ally back then.
But since they had formed a partnership, Crocodile still said, "My dream is to build a military nation that won't be threatened by any force—my own utopia!"
According to the original trajectory, he did indeed create the prototype of a utopia, [Cross Guild], with Hawkeye and Buggy.
Only now,
Hawkeye had become a member of Red-Haired Shanks's Adventurers' Guild, and he had indeed formed a partnership with Buggy, but he had merely gone from a leading position to a Vice Chief.
These things weren't important.
"Vice Chief, with all due respect, your dream is too narrow and should be thrown into the trash!"
Buggy said this without any hesitation.
Crocodile said with a gloomy expression, "Vice Chief Buggy, although we are allies, speaking disparagingly of my dream could very likely cause a rift in our alliance."
To be mocked by Red Nose Buggy, whom he looked down upon, for his dream of creating a utopia?
How ironic.
"I was once a crewmate of Pirate King Roger!"
Buggy's face showed no mockery as he looked at the angry Crocodile, merely pointing to the pirate flag above his head.
"For some reason, I couldn't make it to the final island, Laugh Tale."
"We are pirates; the final island was once the place all pirates dreamed of."
"All this time, because of Shanks's talent and Captain Roger's praise, I once gave up on my dream and cowered in the weakest East Blue."
Speaking of this, Buggy raised his head and grinned savagely, "Vice Chief, I know that even though you've joined the Desert Circus, you still look down on me, don't you?"
"You think I only reached a higher position than you through luck."
Crocodile said nothing, merely calmly puffing on his cigar.
Slowly exhaling a puff of smoke.
"But I'm very sorry, this is the cruel reality!"
Buggy erupted with an aura, not a bluff, but an aura close to that of top players like Red-Haired Shanks.
"Whether it's luck or an accident, the current me and the Buggy Pirates already have the chance to contend for world domination!"
"Since that's the case, then I will conquer this world!"
"A military nation not threatened by any force?"
"Ridiculous! How could such a thing exist, especially on the Grand Line where fate has been broken by the Reincarnation Game!"
"Only power and wealth can create the utopia you speak of!"
Under the pressure of the aura, Crocodile was stunned, not expecting Buggy to say such words, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
"All power and treasures are in the Reincarnation Game; let's go and seize them together!"
Before Crocodile could react,
Buggy had already picked up the Den Den Mushi, connecting to the entire island's broadcast.
On this island, there were countless chaotic pirates, all of them guys who had been captured by the Marines and hated by kingdoms.
Buggy's voice, through the loudspeaker, spread throughout Moguro Town, where pirates gathered.
"We are the Desert Circus family!"
"You trash pirates, scum, villains, bandits, pitiful wretches abandoned by dreams!"
"Perhaps tomorrow you'll be captured by the Marines, killed by Adventurers, so you're hiding here now, spitting on dreams?"
"But your lives aren't over yet, are they?"
"It's still screaming! You fools who are content with the status quo, if you want it, reach out and become an outer member of the Desert Circus, and grasp what you once desired most!"
"From the Marines, the Revolutionary Army, and the Adventurers, let's go and seize it together…"
"This world!"
Moguro Town fell silent,
All noise suddenly ceased, as if covered by the Silence Fruit.
A moment later,
Someone, it's unknown who, dropped a glass on the ground, creating a crisp sound, like a candle igniting the atmosphere.
The entire island erupted.
Snap.
The cigar was bitten through.
Crocodile looked with complex eyes at the figure who had declared such lofty ambitions.
Is this the Buggy he once considered a small-time pirate from the East Blue?
He knew very well,
After he became Vice Chief, he wanted to assert his authority over Mochi, and the seemingly unreliable Buggy also asserted his authority over him.
However, with this ruthless spirit that dared to declare war on the world, he was truly convinced!
"Understood, Captain."
On a hijacked slave ship in the Grand Line,
A golden coin floated in mid-air, spinning continuously, then disappearing, erupting in a golden glow.
Beside it,
Were the Lunalien kid who wanted to find Adventurer Shanks, and a nervous Rayleigh.
A moment later, a hearty laugh came from the golden glow: "Is that Rayleigh? I feel like I've been asleep for a very long time."
The light gradually weakened,
Revealing the figure of the man who had first circumnavigated the Grand Line and become the Pirate King.
He was still wearing the cloak he wore during his execution by the Marines, some torn leather boots, and messy black hair that fell casually.
At the time, he had been too tormented by illness to bother with grooming, so he looked like a great pirate who had wandered the seas for months.
Only now, abundant power continuously surged through him, with no feeling of pain whatsoever.
"That's right, you've really been asleep for a long time, Captain Roger!"
Rayleigh's eyes were moist, and tears were already falling unconsciously.
The Lunalien kid's eyes widened; he hadn't expected to truly see the resurrection of a dead legend.
Is this the great power of the Reincarnation Game?
"Hahaha, even your hair has turned white, Rayleigh, it's really surprising that you've become an old man!"
Roger was initially confused, then quickly reacted and asked, "I should have been executed by the Marines, right? Were you the one who resurrected me with a Devil Fruit?"
"The Underworld Fruit? No, the Underworld Fruit must be eaten while alive."
"Then the Operation Fruit? That's also impossible; the Operation Fruit can't resurrect dead people either. Could it be a new Devil Fruit that appeared during the time I was dead?!"
As he spoke, he excitedly put his arm around Rayleigh's shoulder.
The pain of the weapons piercing flesh during the Marine execution could still be clearly recalled; there was no possibility of feigning death.
Moreover, he, who was already critically ill, wouldn't have lived much longer anyway.
It could only be that,
After he died, a new miracle was born in this Grand Line.
To Roger, that meant a brand new adventure, no wonder he was so excited.
Rayleigh shook his arm, gripping Roger's neck, and teased, "Idiot Roger, the current you is just a kid to me!"
"Even if I'm an old man with no teeth, I'm still the Vice Captain of the Roger Pirates! How dare you speak to your Captain like that!"
After finally meeting,
The two hadn't even exchanged a few pleasantries before they started brawling.
