The Navy has already come to our door!\" Buggy shouted hurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crocodile exhaled a puff of smoke indifferently: \"It doesn't matter. I won't stay here and be besieged by the Navy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you planning to run away?\" Buggy was immediately anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise? Kizaru, Akainu, White Raven—three Admirals have all come. This is a force comparable to the Summit War. Do you think you can defeat them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy's heart skipped a beat: \"Three Admirals!!! The Navy really values the Cross Guild, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what should we do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Either surrender or die. You choose for yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hearing Crocodile say this, Buggy felt his heart go cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, he still had a fierce general under his command. With that thought, Buggy cast an expectant gaze toward Mihawk, who was standing to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps unable to bear Buggy’s pitiful look, Mihawk sighed: \"Buggy, it’s not that I want to pour cold water on you, but three Admirals are not something I can defeat alone. While we have many people, most of them are all show and no substance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Hoo~*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy let out a long sigh of relief, feeling his body suddenly lighten. Since that was the case, he could proudly announce:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let us begin our magnificent escape!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy spread his limbs, puffing himself up Move Move Like a flag, his figure instantly towering dozens of meters high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this was what it meant to say the most cowardly words with the fiercest expression!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the next second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How terrifying~ To have a bounty on the Navy and still want to run away. Could it be that Mr. Buggy has some secret weapon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He should have one. I saw in the intelligence reports that his Buggy-style special bombs are actually quite powerful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy: *WTF!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did they manage to sneak into my base so easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahahaha (fake laugh), it’s been a while, Admiral Karl. Come to think of it, we haven't seen each other in two and a half years, right?\" Buggy immediately lost his nerve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't try to get chummy with me, Buggy. Your act of putting a bounty on the Navy has crossed the Navy’s bottom line. Today, you either die here, or I send you to Impel Down. Choose one yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy broke into a cold sweat, stammering for a long time without being able to say a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he surrendered directly, he would lose face, but he was also afraid of dying. What was he to do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Desert Storm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crocodile raised his hand, and a pitch-black sandstorm rose before Buggy, blocking out the sky and the sun. The entire room was engulfed in the sandstorm, making it impossible to see anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go!\" Crocodile grabbed Buggy and turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Want to run? It’s not that easy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl drew Raven and slashed toward the sandstorm. At the same time, a green flying slash also tore through the sandstorm, colliding with Karl’s golden sword Qi and kicking up a terrifying shockwave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You choose to oppose the Navy too, Mihawk? Or is it that you want to take back the throne of the World’s Greatest Swordsman from my hands?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mihawk said indifferently: \"World’s Greatest Swordsman? Heh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then there was no follow-up; several massive flying slashes were Mihawk’s only response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Admiral Huang Yuan, I’ll leave Mihawk to you. I’m going after Buggy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Swish~*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Yuan: ......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To think Karl snatched the lead! It infuriates me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heavenly Cloud Sword!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mihawk, let me experience the strength of the World’s Greatest Swordsman! Go easy on me, after all, I’m not a professional swordsman!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mihawk glanced at Huang Yuan, feeling a sense of relief in his heart. Today, there should be a chance to escape...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhhhh! Crocodile, don't choke my neck, I can fly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You fly too slowly. I really don't know how those idiots thought your strength was unfathomable. What exactly did you learn on Roger’s ship? Shanks is a genuine Emperor of the Sea, but you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't mention him! If it weren't for that damn Red-Haired, I would have found the legendary treasure long ago!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Swish~* A golden light flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, where are you two going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crocodile looked at Karl, who had suddenly appeared in front of them, and curled his lip: \"Tch, what a troublesome guy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hand over Buggy, and I can arrange for you to be roommates in Impel Down. How about it? I’m quite familiar with Magellan, you know!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, I don't want to go back to that hellhole!\" Crocodile whipped his right arm, and a giant treasure sword made of sand swept toward Karl’s waist, a faint black luster visible on the blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Clang!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl reached out and gripped the blade: \"Yo, Armament Haki, you’ve improved, Mr. Sand Crocodile. It seems you haven't been idle these past two years! However, the intensity of your Armament Haki still needs improvement.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight exertion of force, Crocodile’s Desert Diamond Treasure Sword turned into a pile of sand, scattering into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a monster...\" Crocodile looked at Karl cautiously. Two years ago, he had been rubbed into the ground by Karl, and it was likely the same now. *Tch*, should I sell out Buggy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking back, Buggy had long since vanished!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crocodile: So, I was the clown all along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, no time to play with you, Mr. Sand Crocodile. If you want to find Buggy, just meet him in Impel Down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You think... *Pfft!*\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crocodile spat out a mist of blood. Before he could react, a Seastone spike pierced his shoulder blade. The old sand-man felt his body go soft, unable to believe he had been defeated so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in the day, he walked with his hands in his pockets, not knowing what an opponent was, and then he was taught a lesson by Whitebeard. But he had still exchanged a few blows with Whitebeard and had even stubbornly refused to become his son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look at now; Karl aside, he had even lost to Straw Hat Luffy two years ago...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The times have changed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the old sand-man’s pupils, Karl’s fist grew larger and larger, and then he lost consciousness completely, his eyes rolling back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next, it’s Buggy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is certain is that Buggy’s strength is indeed nothing to write home about, otherwise he wouldn't be fleeing in such a panic. But his luck is truly good; if nothing else, the fact that Mihawk and Crocodile would both rush to cover his retreat is something an ordinary person could never achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn Navy! It was so hard for me to become the President of the Cross Guild, and now *****\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy was flying desperately through the air, cursing. With his ability, he could originally only fly a little bit, but with this robe, he could carry his feet and fly, which looked intimidating. But as for the speed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Big Red Nose, why did you leave without saying hello? In a rush to eat?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy performed an emergency air-brake, staring blankly at Karl in front of him, and the unconscious Crocodile in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he be this fast? Crocodile is at least a great pirate with a bounty of over a billion, and a Logia user at that. How... wait, what did this bastard Karl just say?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you just call me? Big Red Nose? Damn it! I hate it most when people call me Big Red Nose! Don't think I’m afraid of you just because you’re a Navy Hero!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karl smiled slightly: \"Oh? I couldn't tell you had such backbone! Then... Big Red Nose, what are you going to do to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy: \"I, I, I’m going to...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buggy’s chest heaved, his eyes bloodshot as he glared viciously at Karl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I surrender!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1289,"2026-06-16T20:20:52.563Z","2026-06-16T20:55:41.535Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","a9ea0c22122b1287b551a116ecae97bec487fd0812355428404cc380593d2eb5","one-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-chapter-334","one-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-chapter-332",397,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-cover.jpg"]
